heya,
I've just updated to FRF83, following the excellent instructions here:
http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...ussion/7103-update-froyo-2-2-frf83-frf72.html
I've got an official build of Swype, from their beta program, and I've just noticed that after my reboot, it doesn't seem to work.
When you try to swype something the border to the keyboard flashes blue once, then nothing happens. I switched Input Method to Android Keyboard, then back to Swype, still no difference.
Is anybody who has Swype and has upgraded to FRF83 able to verify this?
Cheers,
Victor
I had this issue when I switched to an FRF72 build. The way I fixed was to uninstall Swype, then use the installer stub you can get from their website to re-download and install the keyboard.
I think you have to reinstall. Thats exactly when i upgraded to FRF72, just reinstall swype by following the instructions on how to do so on the Swype web site.
Err, did u try uninstalling swype and reinstalling it from the swype installer?
Reinstall swype with the inataller and it will work fine

heya,
Yup, a reinstall fixed it =).
Thanks to all for the advice.
I'm just curious though, why is it that this was the only app that needed to be reinstalled?

Swype works perfect on FRF83 (after a reinstall of course). I have been using it all morning

i think if you use the "full update.zip", some library will be delete.. also the LWPs of Galaxy S goes in FC with the full update, just reinstall or copy the missing libs fix the problem
Quick tip: If you are one of the hackables who used pm setInstallLocation = 2 to allow SD card installation, then the Swype install will automagically go to your SD card. Not good. Make sure you go to manage applications and move it back to the phone. Otherwise the phone will forget you enabled Swype at every reboot.
Thank god swype still works... Just went 1 day w/out swype and i felt the crunch...

So my dad made the mistake of uninstalling all the Google Talk related applications on his phone rendering the Android Market unusable.
This consisted of 3 things:
1) Talk.apk
2) TalkProvider.apk
3) gtalkservice.apk
So for anyone else who has also made this mistake, or just wants to have these .apk's on their computer or phone as a backup... I give them to you
IF IT DOESNT HAVE "CWM FLASHABLE" IN THE NAME, DO NOT FLASH IT VIA CWM!
A big thank you to BTRL30NTM for making the CWM zip!!
Hi. Thanks for posting these. I installed DeFrost4.0 over 2.2-update1 and did a wipe. There is no gtalk on the phone now. Where should I put these apks?
Just simply install them on the phone. They'll be placed where they need to be.
Are these working for anyone? All 3 apks give me "Application not installed" when I try to install them.
Worked for me when I did it on my dads phone back on Sept 3rd

I uninstalled from titanium after making a backup. Why does titanium has a "backup" options i don't know? The market didn't worked and had a crash on start-up. Installed and got force closes from market and gtalk. After a restart of the phone and some freezing, everything back to normal.
Thanks for this!

EDIT: Keyboard for sense ROMS on page 5. Here is fabolous' gingerbread keyboard (best one out). Flash through clockwork; replaces stock android keyboard. Use at own risk.
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-applications/103389-mod-gingerbread-2-3-keyboard-w-working-predictions.html
The most accurate how-to for installing the Gingerbread keyboard on rooted 2.2 devices is at this link on BriefMobile. The ROM linked there has been fixed to include auto-correct. It works wonderfully on my Aria.
NOTE: Go to the Android Market and install the new Voice Search first. AppBrain will not recognize the update - go straight to the Market page and install the new version, THEN go to CWM Recovery, Nandroid backup, then flash the keyboard ROM.
nice going, can't believe the keyboard from 2.3 is already out...works great
It's a huge improvement, especially having common punctuation marks appear above the main QWERTY keys, and the spacing between keys. Not to mention the darker background provides better contrast, especially with low backlight settings.
Also just got Fabolous's fixed version working. His version includes autocorrect, vs. the version featured on LifeHacker.com, which I couldn't even install (status 0 error message).
Also FYI, the punctuation above the keyboard was also present in the 2.2 keyboard on CyanogenMod 6.0-6.1.

Hey, I'm having issues installing this one. Running CM 6.1. I cannot place files into my root folder. I have no issues booting into CWM recovery and installing things, but if it's installed from outside the root folder you get an error 0. So how do I place the damn zip in the root folder? I can't touch the folder with Astro File Manager or even Droid Explorer. Even w/ root

OK the stock keyboard keeps showing up as an option along with the gingerbread keyboard...this is prob why mine force closes when i type anything. So i spose my problem lies in the stock keyboard not being replaced??? HELP!!!

Yeah, check forum. lowyat.net under the same nick.
Swyped from my Froyo-ed Captivate.
Thanks everyone, I removed swype with TiBu and the Beta then installed perfectly. I did do a reboot after uninstall and before new install.
I removed swype.apk and libswypecor thing via root explorer.
Then I went to the website and got my swype installer.
I opened the installer and logged in.
Clicked the full version.
It said downloading.
Then it went to the package installer.
I clicked install.
It said installing.
Then it says application not installed.

UPDATE: it somehow worked when i did it again. Now i have swype. But it still doesnt let me swype. I can only press on each letter for typing. If i swype the edges flash a blue light.... Help....

I just ran into the same problem this morning.
You'll need to manually remove Swype & run the installer from them. You'll also need an account for the Beta. It's free to register.
remove Swype.apk from /system/app
remove libSwypecore.so from /system/lib
I had to reboot in order for the install to complete, so do that now
grab the installer from here using your phone's browser
run the installer, which will download the new version & install it
You'll lose the nifty themed version that came w/your ROM, of course, but someone who knows & is nice enough may include instructions on how to change that in this thread.

This flashable zip didn't work for me. Says it's configured for another phone.
Happened to me yesterday on 5.12 too....but I just went to 6.1 this morning and it seems to be working.
Same here, says configured for a different device. I have been attempting to download the beta and have been getting a installation incomplete message repeatedly. I uninstalled swype with TiBu. I guessing that I should have used adb to remove it along with the libswypecore file . I have not seen this file to uninstall thus the adb thought.

6.1 has an updated Swype. Does this fix ya'lls problems? It seems to be working for me....
May not be 100% correct but the developers have been using Swype beta in their ROMs and when a new beta update comes along the old beta expires, which is what we're experiencing. It's early in this process so I would expect the devs will get their hands on the new beta to update their ROMs or provide a file to correct this issue. Those of us with a little tech savv have been attempting to get the updated beta directly. You just don't know how painful this was typing without swype. Please give me back my swype!!!
unfortunately I am on a discontinued ROM and will need to be updating the swype install myself. I'm having difficulty deleting the libSwypeCore.so file, and going into terminal and attempting to use chmod is giving me an error "bad mode." How do I delete this file?
How do I get the bata to install? It keeps giving me the not installed message.. I really need help I need swype..

Just verified that Swype is working perfectly for me with the latest and greatest 6.1.
Not really wanting to bang my head much further today. Think I will take sethjamto's hint and flash Serendipity 6.1 and run with it until this storm passes over.
You can use Super Manager to remove the files previously mentioned after uninstalling SWYPE via TIBU. Then reboot and use the beta Swype installer reinstall swype. Oh, make sure you switch to the gingerbread input method before doing anything.
first off, I've seen fixes for this (I think) but I don't understand what they are saying to do...and whether or not it is a fix for my problem. Been working on this for a couple of hours now and no mas.
So, I have the latest versions of aospCM7, gapps, and clockwork. ( at least I think I do, I dled them all tonight.)
I followed the instructions at the aospcm7 wiki from stock.
The rom runs seemingly fine until I go into the market and try to dl an app (specifically either titanium back up pro or rom manager). Then it will dl and say it has successfully installed then app and immediately force closes. The app does not show up in the drawer, and the force close message pops up randomly afterwards. I have tried a simple reboot, alltheway down to reflashing the rom w/ gapps twice now and trying to reflash gapps alone. As well as re dling the file and replacing the gapps file and reflashing it.
If anyone knows of a solution to this and can explain to me how to execute said solution it would be very appreciated. Btw, this is my first root/ rom so I'm still a super noob Be gentle? lol
EDIT: And now that I tried reflashing them together one more time I'm stuck in a bootloop....
EDIT2: Am now restored back to stock thanks to nandroid back up. thank god. Anyways, I'd still like to figure ou the issue and give it another go ,so if anyone can shed some light, please do.

The fixes never worked for me. A few downloads then I had to apply the fixes again and reboot.
