You can download the beta from their website
-Motorola Droid
-Motorola Droid X²
-Motorola Droid Bionic
From their website
If your phone came pre-installed with Swype DO NOT download this beta (it won't work)
Unless I'm missing something
I've never heard of the pre installed Swype expiring. Is that normal?
Swyped from my Droid Bionic, unless I was in landscape, in which case I Swiftkeyed the hell out of it.
Might have something to do with the ROM I was running... Not sure... What I did to fix it was... In root explorer I searched for all instances of swype and deleted them. Then rebooted. After reboot I went to swype.com and DLd the installer... And it worked fine after beta install... And then I changed roms... Lolz. The new ROM I am running us having zero swype issues.

If you are rooted, uninstall the stock Swype and get the beta

Swype has some funny ways... The same thing happened to me but I did as suggested by others. Just uninstall and download a new copy. My phone came with Swype loaded as a system app as well; you will have to wipe, log in and reload to reach Nirvana. This whole process is my only issue with Swype. You always have a clean install instead of an update so you have to "teach" it all over again.

Note: I am in no way associated with the authors of this ROM.
While perusing ROM Manager this morning I stumbled upon a new entry. Attempts to uncover any useful details about the 0.0.4 release of Lithium Mod proved fruitless, and yet curiosity got the best of me (as it musually does with my Inc). I've installed It and thus far am impressed with a lean, stable AOSP build with some interesting tweaks built in.
Please reply with any usage reports or pertinent details concerning this release, whether it be stock or modded in any way you see fit.
Obligatory link:
ROM MANAGER
Attributes discovered thus far:
-Customized power menu
-Nifty boot animation
-15 second boot time
-310MB free memory on boot
-Red Clock font I can't change?

Very sure, actually reflashed it (and am still on it) to make sure. This is all I have in the app drawer:
Browser, calculator, calendar, camera, clock, contacts, dev tools, email, gallery, lithiummod, messaging, music, phone, search, settings, spareparts, speech recorder, superuser, voice dialer.
I even went to a site (appbrain) and tried to download a random app (astro free) from market and it brought me to a page saying "Web page not available The Web page at market://details? id=com.metago.astro&referrer=utm_source might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. Here are some suggestions: Check to make sure your device has a signal and data connection Reload this web page later. View a cached copy of the web page from Google"... I have the blue version of Lithium, if that matters at all. Is it just hidden somewhere obscure? I've looked around in dev tools and lithiummod, but maybe it was too general? Either way, I don't see market under settings>applications>manage applications>all... So yeah, any help?
EDIT: Downloaded Astro from 4Shared, so I could access Titanium and install it, so I can get all of my other apps, just not market lol...
Need to install Google apps
Alright, off to rom manager! Thanks.

SwiftKey is, IMO, the best by far.

Slideit just doesn't have a decent enough prediction.
Swiftkey i tried multiple times, but it just doesn't do it for me, mostly because you still have to be accurate about what letters you do type. The word prediction is very slick.
I would definitely have to say swype by miles. You don't have to be accurate. Fast and sloppy - and its way faster then i could ever touch type.
As for people having issues with correction. you gotta learn to double click the messed up word.
Close second is the droid x multitouch (not working in liberated froyo) and followed by the stock htc_ime - although admittedly swiftkey is superior to stock.
edit: has anyone tried the new swype beta? its considerably faster, and with better prediction.

You need to either sideload the actual SWYPE application .apk file (not the installer) or enable install from unknown sources and then run the installer. I'm not sure about the latest Liberated release, but I know that in Cyanogen Mod 6.1 there is an option that you simply check to enable installation of non-market applications.
I've been using SlideIT for a few weeks now, and Swype before that. Just tried Swype again today after flashing Liberated, and I have to say SlideIt seems better. In particular, I like the suggested words being immediately above the keyboard in a row, instead of a big box at the top of the screen. SlideIT can be a little iffy on occasion, I'll admit. Granted, I'm using version 1.60 of Swype which I'm sure is extremely dated.
Oh and I've tried those weird keyboards like 8pen et. al... don't like them at all. 8pen feels like a rotary dial, lol. Swiftkey was nice, but I'm too lazy to hit all the letters in (or even the first 2-3 as is usually the case) when I can just swype.
Swype = overrated, clunky piece of poor autocorrect crap
SwiftKey = worst keyboard design ever, small keys
SlideIt = looks terrible
Better Keyboard = looks terrible, lackluster autocorrect
8pen = Do I need to say anything about it? Common sense dictates it'd be slow as hell no matter how fast you type.
That leaves Smart Keyboard. The best, hands down.
Swype worked for my Captivate until I downgraded from gingerbread to froyo. Then, after a short period of time, Swype quit functioning with a message about my "free trial" ending... Related to froyo? I'd like Swype back, anyone seen this problem?
Thank you
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
One way to fix this is to get the latest swype beta directly from swype
http://beta.swype.com/
Another way is to find one of the swype.apk floating around xda that is permanent or does not have a trial period to worry about.

Might seem like a dumb question but I can't seem to enable swype on password lock? it's so much easier and allows me to easily unlock my phone with an essentially endless pattern gesture, I had it working on my thunderbolt but I was using a self installed early version of swype because the tbolt doesn't come with swype, is there anyway to enable this?

Yeah. I just finished setting up again after flashing. I've noticed a few back end things that didn't work before now seem to be working. For instance, before if I did a check for update it would say check for system update is not available. Now I get the usual no update necessary message. Other than that it seems the same.

Honestly, there's not much difference and if you're happy on 2233, I'd stay there. I'll continue to flash each new leak out of curiosity. A final build should be appearing in the next few weeks, because Motorola has early Q3 as there expected release which only gives them until mid-August at the latest to finalize, test, and gain approval for the update.
I wonder if there will be any differences in the official ICS release and the leaked .2233? Honestly i havent found anything wrong with 2233 yet aside from recovering a nandroid backup of it.

Mostly the issues I have found include things in Motoblur apps or backend stuff (such as the missing System Updates I mentioned earlier, Social Gallery not allowing you to add accounts, and the Device Setup wizard force closes after the initial run through), and I believe some of this stuff has been purposely disabled for these "test" builds. I also think HDCP has yet to be enabled, as running Hulu Plus in webtop mode gave me a black screen that said HDMI output has been disabled. Two of those four things are now fixed in 229, and I'm going to test Hulu Plus in about an hour. It is very close to being a done deal for sure. I would expect a new leak or two in the next two weeks with all these issues ironed out, followed shortly by news of a soak test in late-July, and a final release the first week of August. But that's all speculation on my part.

Did you try after a factory reset on 2233? Mine were there and working when upgraded from 905, but I did a factory reset and then it kept trying to add but gave me an error that read something along the lines of this has been disabled for this account. It works fine on 229.

I haven't noticed a lot of changes either, overall since all i noticed was the updated kernel and lower os resource usage.

Not sure why, but after flashing to .902 and updating several times on .2233, I went back to .902 to get this new leak on, and promptly got stuck on the dual core logo. I reflashed .902 -- it went perfectly both times -- but got stuck on the big red dot again. Left it alone for almost three hours, and all it did was kill my battery.
Any idea why the exact same .902 file and procedure that I used many times before would suddenly decide to crap out on me?
Can I just flash this update over the 2233 or do I have to go back to 905 first?
I believe you have to go back to .905 first, but i could be wrong... i havent tried it yet.
