Do you have the swype installer? It should update swype automatically

Storm, what if you can't get the installer to work? I am running a phoenix rom and the only swype I have is the beta. Unfortunately I can't run the 3.26 installer (which just came out, thereby deactivating my copy) because I'm getting an error "Swype Beta is currently unavailable for devices that have Swype preinstalled" - since my cracked copy had a beta to begin with - when a new copy was released, my copy was remotely deactivated. Is there a workaround?
I'm having an issue updating swype as well, when I go into the swype installer and hit "update" I get an error saying "There is a problem parsing the package."
Here's the new beta http://jbthemes.com/djdarkknight/darkswype-morph/

When I try to install that app, I start installing and a few second later it says "application not installed"
Wipe data and uninstall Swype using Titanium Backup. Boot into Recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache. Then install. PROFIT!

I'm using the new Swype to type this. You don't need to clear your cache and all that. Just uninstall Swype and the Swype installer from titanium backup. Then download the new installer. Reboot your phone and run the installer and it should go through just fine. Just so you know, its really good looking.

I found his themed swypes... oops, but now after doing some more reading I see Swype has cracked down on "unofficial" themes and XDA is closing threads related to them. So I guess you'll have to find them yourself - shouldn't be too tough though.
Here's where you can get every new swype beta. Just sign up on the official site and download the installer:

The latest revision works great, but I'm having, like many others, issues downloading alternative languages pack on ICS/CM9. Did anybody figure out a workaround?

Yesterday I installed swype on CM9 B16. within an hour i was down 40% battery (edit: phone was sitting idle, screen off). Put it on charge an even that was going slow and the top of the phone was warm. Switch the keyboard back to the android default and the phone cooled off and charging went faster (from laptop USB). Using the show cpu usage overlay, it seems like the swype keyboard is always cranking away on cpu usage even in the lock screen.
Has anyone else had this battery drain issue with swype? is there a workaround? Swype was the best thing going on my carriers GB rom.

Nope I dont have this problem, ive been using it on ICSSGS Roms, no glitches or bugs works flawlessly. It might be a bad install, remove the app and redownload it..
Ive noticed that no matter what there is almost always a swype background process running so that can contribute to your batter loss.
I realize its always going to be a looming process. I did try reinstalling a couple hours ago. Its not popping up so intensely on the cpu usage monitor and have only dropped a normal amount (a few percent) of battery since then. I think the reinstall did it.
ps. I also had wiped my Dalvik cache before the reinstall for unrelated reasons, could have this been the atual fix rather than reinstalling swype?

I just downloaded SwiftKey Beta for my Nexus One, but every time I try to download a Language Pack, I get a small error message saying that the download was interrupted and I should try again, but it never works.
I'm running 2.2 and have tried on both WiFi and 3G.

Odd... I'd try the standard various troubleshooting first. A reboot, the uninstall and reinstall. I got SwiftKey without any problems.
Although they did say they had about 100k downloads a day since beta broke, so maybe their servers are feeling it?
It's a cool semantically-innovative way to type. Swype is fun to draw. In the end I'm still fastest and prefer a keyboard that doesn't have to do any prediction (currently using Better Keyboard)
download it from the market instead of using the apk file posted on the forum. works for me fine from the market but the apk i downloaded in the swift key beta thread i have the same problem
it works pretty good on my nexus one ..Nexus one is the best.
Hey guys.
I've had this issue with YouTube being unresponsive in portrait mode after going to the main menu after I've watched a video. Hasn't bothered me because I'd just go to landscape to choose the video I wanted.
Today its now gotten worse. After a random xda force close, the shortcut on the homescreen isn't working. Every other shortcut works without issue though. Deleted and re-added the shortcut isn't working. Neither is an uninstall/reinstall. Its also spread to a few other apps.
Anyone encountered this before?
Just a few details:
Overcome 1.4.3 - Hevent upgraded yet, might later to see if the issue continues.
OC 1.4ghz
Nothing strange has happened prior to these random issues (no drops, rom flashes etc)
Sent from inside a whale.
The new xda app did the same to me after it updated itself, so I went to titanium, deleted the new version, then reinstalled the old from backup. No issues since.
Youtube has always had a mind of it's own, whether it's changing orientation, or even playing. Patience is all I can suggest there.
I had a similar problem (somewhat sporadic) and after the overcome 1.6 I don't notice it any more. although it's early days
I'm having similar issues with the keyboard - regardless of the type - stock or purchased - they lag or do not rwspond and all randomly

Have you tried going down to 1.2ghz instead of 1.4? The FC's could be happening when it peaks 1.4ghz and doesn't like it. *shrug*
Only thing similar I've experienced is sometimes the capacitive buttons don't respond, but it's totally random and usually gets fixed if I hit any other button (even one of the other capacitives)
Amiga, is there any chance all your cavorting with gingerbread is a cause?
Its not force closing, it doesn't respond when its in portrait, if I switch to landscape everything is fine.. Really struggling to figure this out. And I've tried going back to stock (dissabling setcpu) and it still happens.

Hey everyone i thought i would bring the good news to people who are swype fans and let you guys know that the new swype 3.0 is available for download and is open for the public to join as well.
i know people on the TB were having some problems with swype in the beginning, and for all i know got fixed long before beta 3.0, but regardless the new 3.0 fixes the spacing problem on the TB and has some cool new features as well, go check it out at swype beta website
http://beta.swype.com/
Great find.. thanks!
Works great

So far so good! First time that the downloaded beta actually typed properly. Previously had to use a diff version found on xda here somewhere.

I totally uninstalled the installer & app... started from scratch... Works fantastic, no spacing or reboot issues.
The new inline word suggestion is top notch. Will see how it "learns" but maybe just a half step below swiftkey so far after a few minutes of use...

I still like Flext9 a lot...although I am using this on my Xoom because it supports tablets and Flext9 doesn't.
+100 on flext9.
Autospacing doesn't work for me when i am texting. Works fine in email and other applications though.
Uninstall and re-install worked for me.
I agree, the update is really nice. It still does not work with the pre-installed messaging app, but with apps like handcent, I will never go back to the pre-installed app.
I logged in with my account, installed the installer and the version says 1.1.26483. Is that just the installer or is something wrong?
I went ahead and installed it and my swype isn't white like in the picture either.
I bounce between Swype and FlexT9 periodically. Flex is easier with words that have double letters, but it really, really sucks in dealing with spaces after punctuation.

Thanks so much for posting this, I was lamenting my lack of swype, now I can swype to my heart's content. That reminds me, is there a way to put away the swype keypad like the stock one?

Okay time to add on to this quick post at the start of the thread. I am running this on VeGan Tab as the ROM of choice. The App switches from portrait to landscape mode with a minor reload. The search look exactly the same as before. One of the cool feature is the ability to side scroll between the home screen and categories to the left and top paid, top free, top grossing, top new free, and trending. From each of these you can scroll up and down. The scrolling is just a tiny bit laggy but not a hugh issue. Clicking on an app opens a nicely laid out window which fills the entire display and is well laid out in my opinion. The one odd issue is when you click on the screen shots they only display in portrait mode. Also the movie preview streams are excellent they do not lag even on my slow internet connection.
It is my recommend for all tablet users 2.2 and higher to install this update to the app store

What I know of this update is that it is for 2.2 and higher. from the google blog...
Recently, we’ve been hard at work improving Android Market to give you new ways to find great applications and games, purchase books, and rent movies. Today, we’re releasing a new version of Android Market which makes all of these available on phones (Android 2.2 and higher).
So I take it this is not on the HC builds and it can be used on the HC builds. As with anything like this your mileage will vary. I just put my two cent worth in on the update.
Tried on Stock 3588 but no go which of course I did not think it would work.
I like the new Market however I keep getting a force close if I try to add a customized icon shortcut via Better Cut. I have to drag the app icon from the application menu & add it to my launcher bar, which is fine but I can't use a customized icon.
I am running this on Flashback rom with no problems.
Actually have two Markets to pick from for now so I'll wait and see which I like better.
Downloaded Zinio from new market and updated a few apps no problem.
Now if we can get Netflix to work on Flashback this would/will be a great tablet and replace my laptop.
Anybody try it on HC yet? I really like the layout of the HC market.
any hack fix for this version of the market
Any hack fix
Anyone tried it on Honeycomb yet?
Running BoS 6.0 Alpha nad so far no problems.

Had this happen to me but doing something different. Before you go wild and try a lot of things, I found out that this may be caused by your contacts getting corrupted. If you have Titanium backup and can get into it, wipe your contacts/account data and you'll be fine.
If not, you most likely DON'T have to NVFlash your device- just wipe your data&cache if you have CWM recovery installed.
Whoa... Nice improvements. This is SLICK!

Yeah, the contacts don't have anything to do with the market so Im not even going to bother. Are you runing Vegan Gingeredition? If you are it may be safe to assume that the issue is a conflict there. Need more feedback from others running Vegan GE to know for sure. For know I just reverted back to the orig market and it runs fine, I don't plan on renting any movies anyway, (not that they play on rooted devices) so not having the new market doesnt bother me a lot.

the new market is awesome tho. i have it on my droid 1 with no issues. i guess ill just have to stick with the original market for now. i dont care about the movies or books either but it just looks so cool haha

it is highly recommended to do full wipe between flashes.
data/factory reset

/boot

fix permission
reboot
another just in case
First.... Yea i will try this looks great

i've been working on that, it's been a lingering issue. but on my last 4 boots with install it's been there.
Just loaded it on and everything works as it should. Even put Apex on so now I have either MIUI launcher or stock launcher!
Although I'm having problems with root permission and the keyboard doesn't do as well as correcting like the AOKP ICS build
**Sorry didn't see the post about the SU flash...I'll try that**
Just thought I would put out my findings so far on this version:
Cons:
- After putting on the SU flash it seems to have helped with the root permissions. Root Explorer crashes on me when I open it, it asked for root permission and this FC's.
- The keyboard doesn't recognize words like the typical ICS keyboard does and puts the red line under normal words that you would use. Even changing keyboards it still does it in the messaging apps and things. Not sure if it's a translation thing or what. Like in notes I have "one call for scheduling" for some notes I took and all four of those words have red lines under them.
- Notes and a few other things aren't translated to English, still is in Chinese even though I have English set as the language.
- Autobrightness doesn't seem to work the best, it stays pretty dim after the screen goes off and back on.
Pros:
- Battery life seems to be good but I haven't charged completely to test, I just charged a light charge and has stayed at the battery level for about a hour now and I have used it slightly so it does appear that it's good.
- Not really by your doing but it's nice being able to use the Apex launcher with the MIUI launcher so you could have the vanilla ICS look as well as MIUI look without changing roms.
- Gallery works fine on my end as well as the external music files. Doesn't read the internal but that's already posted I believe.
Hope that's not to long of a post and provides some good feedback, Calendar showed up this time on this flash and everything else seems to be working like it should
Is the fixed ROM a flashover and is there a way to get rid of the "download size requires WI-fi"?
Hey Mark, loving this rom so far. Seems really solid and am looking forward to the next update.
Was the 1x4 miui music widget removed? I'm only seeing the 4x4. Any way to get that back?
Just rembered: the Facebook sync, under accounts and sync, doesn't work. When you choose it, it just returns you to the account list.

If the widget was removed it was because of china, we should see it again soon though. This week they reintroduced their "custom music" app. For facebook sync, ICS removed it, you will need to download an app from market, i use http://tinyurl.com/7snt9sw from market. It syncs all contacts and pictures. Just add account from settings>accounts and sync
