Swype on Samsung Series 7 Slate with Win8

Hello,
Has anyone figured out how to get Swype to work on the Samsung Series 7 Slate running Windows 8? I've tried everything I can think of to make it work and still can't get it to.
All it does is let you swype one word and then freezes up. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks, Nexttonomy

try this

its not "swype" but its the same concept under a different name.
confirmed swype style typing on samsung series 7 running win 8 x64

moved to general - not development

I was looking for this myself and believe this might have worked for 3rd party manufacturers
http://orcaservice.samsungmobile.com/ITEM/Software/BASW-13533A/BASW-13533A19.ZIP
I have continued looking and believe I have seen a newer version link that is working however this install does not complete and states that it was meant for a different manufacturer - i.e. for me Iconia w500
The new version is located http://orcaservice.samsungmobile.com/ITEM/Software/BASW-13533A/BASW-13533A23.ZIP
(install option "JUST ME" needs to be used to progress further in installation)
but fails to install fully giving me (error - can any one make this compatible with non samsung windows tablets) or has someone have the older compatible version?

Swype for Windows (tabletpc, not phone)
I have the same tablet, Acer W500 and like the Swype for Windows too!.
When the dialog box appear, you can copy the files before the installer delete them.
1. The application is in \Program files\Swype\
2. The application data is in \ProgramData\Swype\
I try copy the files, let the installer delete them and copy at hand again to the same locations.
In \ProgramData\Swype, you found an executable (I don't remember the name) who uninstall itself and fill the folder with some new files.
When you run the "Swype.exe" file from \Program Files\Swype\, the application close with error.
For the record, I have Windows 8.
I believe is missing some registration part, or in the post-install process before the dialog box... or maybe is the resolution (remember, our tablet have only 1280x800).
Do you try to edit the installer with Orca?. I try but not find the error dialog part for delete only this...
Best regards and please excuse my english!,

Swype working (well... not very good, but...)
Good news!.
Or not, the problem in the Acer W500 is the same of nexttonomy, Swype freeze after the first finger use (with the mouse work fine, but who like use Swype with the mouse?).
For get the swype keyboard working in a Acer W500 tablet you can follow this simple directions. Not work good, I think because Windows 8, but if anyone have Win7 can check...
1. Run the installer and when the error dialog appear, not accept anything.
2. Copy the files from \Program files\Swype\ to a safe place (for example c:\swype)
3. Copy the files from \ProgramData\Swype\ to the same place (in this example, c:\swype)
4. Accept the error dialog, you don't need to save anymore.
5. Go to c:\swype and run the file "ExtractResource.exe"
I'm not sure if this is really needed, check yourself:
6. Rename the files begining with "display0_" to the same name without this keyword (for example display0_SwypeIconLock.png to SwypeIconLock.png). If you have Python installed, this script do the work for you:
Code:
import os; shutil
for f in os.listdir('.'):
if f.startswith('display0_'):
shutil.copy(f, f.replace('display0_', ''))
7. Run the Swype.exe file!.
If I click over a key with the mouse, work, but If I do that with the finger, not (maybe is because the Win8 finger support).
When I get some time like to check run in administrator mode, or Win7 compatibility, and play with the settings.
If anyone find how to run better, please share the info!.
Please not ask for the files, because I think is illegal, if the instructions are not clear, please tell me and I try to explain better.
Best regards!,
Sebastian

thanks for your information I have been away and only just read your messages that you posted - I think unfortunately at the moment it is not good enough for a usable keyboard - but at least some progression was made

Thanks you, your original post made me investigate
Yes, in Windows 8 not work at all like what say nexttonomy, almost now in the W500 work like the original Samsung Slate!.
I believe if you have Windows 7 in the Acer W500, work fine!.
Maybe is the new "finger mode" (not know the right name) in Windows 8, in Windows 7 your finger movements and clicks work exactly like the mouse, but in Win 8 draw the movements and show a big circle when you click...
The Win8 on-screen keyboards are much better than the Win7 keyboards, but the Swype in my phone is really fast, we will have to wait for a new version!!!
Best regards,
Sebastian

has anyone gotten this working fully?
I`d love to have Swype on my tablet!
I was using Touchpal but I had to uninstall it [it breaks and you have to reinstall ] but I don't have the set-up file anymore and the touchpal site is gone . :[
I just started using the Windows 8 onscreen keyboard from the Accessibilty options and it has word completion as well as prediction but isn't a swipe interface. The space bar is also buggy and doesn't always work .
You can make the keyboard start on startup. I pinned the icon to my taskbar for easy access . You can show and minimize it by clicking on the icon.
It also sadly doesn't resize open windows so it gets in the way of stuff .
It is a lot better then the main Windows 8 keyboard
oh, you can easily resize it! :]

Sorry for the ancient necro, but I think this is the only relevant thread around here. I'm trying to get this running on an Acer R7-572 with Windows 8.1. Sadly, the earlier A19 revision with broader compatibility doesn't seem to exist online anywhere anymore, so I'm trying the file-copying trick with the A23 revision. I can save the files fine, but Swype.exe doesn't do anything when I try to run it. The computer thinks for a second then nothing happens. ExtractResource.exe doesn't do anything either. I've tried different compatibility modes for the installer and for Swype.exe but nothing works. I'd really like Swype on my Acer. I've tried TouchPal before but I don't like it, it was never working right.

Everything on the Windows Phone 8 Emulator

The Windows Phone 8 Emulator is installed as a part of the Windows Phone 8 SDK. You can follow some steps below to begin hacking the emulator.
Things to do:
everything....
InteropUnlock
BCD Editing
Well, first thing is first. Getting the WP8 SDK to install.
PREREQUISITES:
A SLAT capable CPU and BIOS. Some OEMs have only enabled the virtualization feature, but missed the SLAT feature.
Your computer needs to support hardware DEP (No execute bit for AMD).
An OS that supports Hyper-V: Server 2008, 2008R2, 2010, 2012, 2012R2, or Windows 8 Pro.
Note: AFAIK, the only officially supported OS for this is Win8Pro-x64
Access to a user account that has Administrator rights.
Steps for "Getting Ready!"
Set the date to 10/5/13 - one day before expiration (thanks to mister2d.)
Install the SDK normally. (Note: the complete SDK should be installable on any 64bit OS that has the OS version at 6.1 or newer, just follow the tutorial in my signature.)
Install the Visual Studio Update 4.
Install the Windows Phone Emulator - Update 3
Now, most of you can launch the emulator by opening the Windows Phone Deployment Tool (or Windows Phone Power Tools) and deploy to the resolution of choice and to either RTM or GDR3.
I seemed to hit a bug where XDE (the emulator shell) can't create a Virtual Machine properly. It seems to be surrounding the disk being attached improperly.
So.... You can skip the entire part above if you have the Flash.vhd and the desired resolution vhd.
Using the WP8 emulator only using Hyper-V Manager
Open Hyper-V Manager
Click on New, then Virtual Machine
Name the VM what ever you like.
Set RAM at 512 or 1024. 2048 me be a little finicky.
Leave Networking on Not Connected unless you have fully configured Hyper-V.
Select "Attach a virtual hard disk later"
Click Finish.
Right click on the VM you have just created and go to settings.
Click on DVD Drive and press remove.
Click on Hard Drive and paste the location of the desired resolution vhd.
e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0GDR3\Emulation\Images\Flash.480x800.vhd
Double click on the VM to bring up the control interface and press the blue-green "start" button.
Controls for the VM:
Back - Escape/F1
Start - F2
Search - F3
Vol UP - F9
Vol Down - F10
Camera full-press? - F7
Mouse left & right click - tap
NOTE: THE CURSOR DISAPPEARS WHEN MOVED INTO THE VM SCREEN.
Things disable out of box.
Microsoft accounts
dialer (I can't seem to get any of the dialer codes to work yet.)
camera (kinda...just displays a colored box running around the edges.)
Steps to InteropUnlock:
Attach the vhd
type diskmgmt.msc at the start screen. click attach vhd. paste the location of the vhd and press ok.
e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0GDR3\Emulation\Images\Flash.480x800.vhd
right click on blue disk shown and click on detach vhd once done with working on it.
type regedit.exe at the start screen.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Click File, Load Hive.
Go to the main partition (the one that has all the links to the other drives...)
and go down to Windows\System32\config (it will ask for permission to enter...)
Hmm....Seems to be interopunlocked already...
More soon!

reserved

Just saying this in case you didn't know this: You can mount the VHD file as a hardware and explore/edit emulator system files.

That's exactly what's in the op, but I'm not sure what persists and there's a few others too, but I ran out of time to mess with it. Just highlight the text and you'll see that the directions are there.
Essentially this should be able to operate like a real device, but it needs a few tweaks. Also its funny to see in settings for it to say i386 under the SoC.
Sent from my Lumia 928 (RM-860) using Tapatalk

Convert VHD into vmdisk, then you can run the emulator in VMWare directly with CPU without SALT or VT and can also without win8

Saw this over on the winbeta site. Didn't really check it out but may be useful in backing up any work done on the emulators. As I said I didn't take much time checking it out but may be worth a look. http://go.altaro.com/?LP=WinBeta-30...tm_medium=banner-300x250&utm_campaign=winbeta

What would be really nice is to make it so you can connect your MS account from the emulator.

Yeah it might just need an easy tweak, but then again I simply don't know.

This is Because of the web installer needs to Be already installed visual Studio 2010 or Higher version on Your PC.
Many of the guys dont have installed visual Studio or they dont want to install it.
So For Those Peoples here is Separate Stand Alone version of Windows Phone Power Tools.
1. Download attach zip and Extract.
2. Run WindowsPhonePowerTools.exe
3. Connect Your windows Phone...Make sure lock Screen is open.
4. Connect...
5. Now select your xap and deploy or update.
Enjoy!!!

I don't think that will work (correct me if I'm wrong). Windows Phone Power Tools use CoreCon API - COM classes that come with Windows Phone SDK. Furthermore, it also references SmartDevice DLLs, which also come only with Windows Phone SDK.

Is this all you have to do? Just install and deploy?

Trouble
Hi! I have a trouble to download the zip file. Is still work? If not where I can find link for wppt?

Hello, the attachment isn't available. How I can download it?

As a requirement, you need the Windows 8.1 SDK.

Thank you for the information.

[TOOL] AppDeploy 8.1 all capabilities

After few tries, I've fixed application deployer from SDK 8.1 to sideload xaps with all "restricted" capabilities in the manifest
(he-he, just curious why nobody did it before?)
1) Backup original deployer "AppDeploy.exe" and "Microsoft.Phone.Tools.Deploy.dll" from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.1\Tools\AppDeploy" first!
2) Unpack attachment and replace files.
3) Enjoy!
I've tested modified deployer on WPTweaker and WPH Tweak apps, works perfectly.
Cons: I was lazy to add original localization so modified deployer has only English lang.
P.S. Of course to be able sideload apps with "restricted" capabilities your handset must be interop-unlocked

Works fine so far. Many thanks.
Maybe you can give instructions how to add other localizations. I would like to add german localization for myself.

sorry does not work for the : WebAccess_0_5_6_AllCapabilities.xap

@megasounds, do you have a handset with all capabilities unlocked? You may compare error message from the original 8.1 deployer and modified, messages are different. In case of modified deployer, the error message came directly from phone or (maybe, I'm not sure) from Microsoft.SmartDevice.Connectivity namespace.

Can't deploy WPTweaker_Release_ARM_1.4.0.xap

@titi66200, do you have WP8.1 SDK installed? It's not a standalone deployer but just a replacement of "native" SDK tool.

Yes.
I have build "MDILFileList.xml" with MDILXAPCompile.exe and rezip Xap.
And now i can deploy WPTweaker_Release_ARM_1.4.0.xap

Kinda strange 'cause I've tested on my xap downloaded from xda thread (for the test purity).
P.S. BTW, could you try to sideload other "interop-only" apps? (except @GoodDayToDie's WebAccess_AllCapabilities - I don't know how to sideload that app to the handset with "usual interop", not a "sammy" with the custom bits)

Can the coveted tetra lock screen app 1.2.0.0 finally be deployed? I'm currently on winmo 10 and can't test lol

Click to expand...

That's about half my fault and half Microsoft's; the AllCapabilities version of the webserver includes *all* the capabilities that were usable by a third-party app in 8.0 (even if they aren't necessarily used for anything). Microosft removed some of those in 8.1. This results in trying to install an app that requires capabilities which the OS doesn't even understand.
Workaround is to remove capabilities from the app's manifest until it installs. Alternatively, use the normal-caps version (or another registry browser) to see all the available capabilities - they're under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SecurityManager\Capabilities) - and remove the ones in the app's manifest that aren't supported.
I'm really sorry for not updating the app in so bloody long. I got stuck on some really huge set of changes for it that aren't working right yet, and then I got swept up in another project altogether, and that + life generally being busy (travel, girlfriend, day job, you know the drill) has meant I've been neglecting that app. I need to switch back to the stable branch, fix the capabilities, and release a trivial update. I'll try to do that as soon as possible (but my dev PC is temporarily dead, so I'll need to use my laptop, and I've got plans with friends tonight... again, you get the idea). Sorry again.

I've changed slightly AppDeploy (forgot to add app icon in the initial post ); also added decompiled sources (in case someone want to improve/add own localization - but my 2¢ - don't waste you time )

Removed ID_CAP_SOUND_CONTROL in "WMAppManifest.xml"
Added "WindowsPhoneReservedAppInfo.xml"
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<WindowsPhoneReservedAppInfo xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/phone/2013/windowsphonereservedappinfo" PinableOnKidZone="false">
<SoftwareCapabilities>
<SoftwareCapability Id="ID_CAP_SOUND_CONTROL" />
</SoftwareCapabilities>
</WindowsPhoneReservedAppInfo>
And i can deploy with original AppDeploy.

Hmm, I thought WindowsPhoneReservedAppInfo.xml is just for WinRuntime apps, not Silverlight...
@titi66200, are you able to see/play ringtones after that change (tap any button on the "Sounds" page)?

Yes all Works
Edit
glancescreen.xap is RuntimeType="Silverlight" and use "WindowsPhoneReservedAppInfo.xml"

Wow, pretty cool trick, thanks! I'll add your solution to the WPTweaker project.

Windows 11 on windows yogabook

Does anyone here have made the update to windows 11 on a windows yogabook ?
I've try this and with help of MediaCreationTool.bat i was able to overpass the processor compatibility.
It donwload the update, run all the install but at the end of this process i Come with an error and the update process colse to delete all this work, coming with just a windows 10 after all.
When the update finish i have 2 type of error
attempted write to readonly memory
Or
Error in safe_os with an error on Boot operator
Don't know why i have this error and how to fix it.
I try on a fresh install with my old files and already try to à New clean install, but all this try i already have an error....
Does anybody here have this error and can clear it to made the update or run the windows 11 update without problems on a yogabook ?

Nope, I was not facing any issues with the Install. (sorry, don't ask for a guide as there already are hundreds of it. Google it)
Furthermore, I am already testing WSA and it's surprisingly working fluid. You obviously get the 4GB warning but once WSA is fully loaded it's "bingo". (check OneDrive & Adobe Draw running side by side). I had 5 Apps running at the same time but the process usage in the Taskmanager was not freaking out (if you compare it to Bluestacks etc) !
And yes, pen works perfectly in the Android Apps...

Thanks for your answer, my problem is not how to made the w11 update, cause i already install it on another pc, but why i have this error, i already try three time to install it and already have the Same error (First time i try to give my files and i have this error, thinking this can be the problem i made the Same process but with a clean install, same result and last time i totally reinstall my yogabook with a clean install and try to launch w11 update on it (with MediaCreationTool.bat each time) and i have the Same result)
Each time the donwload process go to the end and the install work fine (i have no reboot du ring all the update) but when i came to the final (and First) boot of w11 i have this error on a Black screen (old blue screen of windows) and the pc uninstall the update and come back to w10.....

Did you try to start in safe mode and run "mdsched.exe" ? (Usually pressing F8 right after the lenovo bios logo appears, but you will probably need and external usb keyboard for this)

Thanks for your time and your help.
For the BIOS update Yes it directly come from the lenovo site (the only update aviable so i can't make mistake).
I just try to make a full run of mdsched.exe in safe mode (really hard to keep a usb keyboard cause my 2 wireless keyboard wasn't reconnised in safe mode) and no error after the check...
I really don't understand what can block the W11 update on my yogabook.
Also try to install with desableing all non essentiel app and service at startup..... No more result.....
The only option i do not try is to make the update in safe mode (don't know if it's possible...)

Hey,
typing this from my W11 yoga book... i used the reg tweak as described in this article and just started upgrading by opening the ISO in W10 https://pureinfotech.com/install-windows-11-unsupported-pc/
Needed to install some drivers again, but overall it works okay. Just disable all animations. Because our old tablet just can't handle those any more.

is there any benefit in using vw11 instead of w10 in performance terms? I would go for w11 but only performance driven as WSL is running fine ;-)
