Question: Swype Beta on stock v9? - LG Revolution

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I can't stand the number placement on the stock swype and would like to replace it with the one from BO. I actually have done that and it works, but FC's after a reboot until I disable it or reinstall it. I'm currently on a personally custom debloated, tweak'd, heavily modded and deodexed 'stock' v9 rom. idk if that's the issue or what, it did the same thing on a completely stock rom, but can some one help me? I can't go back to the old swype!!!!!!
My wife said I need a snickers. lol
No, but seriously. Help?

Uninstall the Swype app with an app that has root access, then delete the application data in /data/app, then go to beta.Swype.com and register for an account or login if you have one. You can then download the Swype installer. Run the Swype installer and login, then download and install the latest beta.

delete it using Root Explorer. its in /system/app/. you can probably delete it with Titanium Backup too. Astro doesnt have root permissions.

Latest gmail 2.3.2 apk
Just place onto your sdcard and then install.
Works fine on a Samsung Galaxy S i9000
Yes. it is very simple. And I find this always works:
Install the new version, if it fails, reboot the phone or restart the Java VM. Do the install again. Done.
I have the same problem with the last apk of Gmail and with Launcher Pro Plus.
I have solved both in the same way, deleting the original with SUBFS or another root explorer.
i have the same problem.
then,i take a gmail APP form CM 6.1 to install...
i'll done~
try it!
guess this is still for 2.2 only? i've seen various threads on other forums claiming there's a 2.1 version goin around and im not sure if it's modded or not

[Q] SMS Apps not compatible with liberty rom?

So i have looked for handcent sms and go sms in the market and they do not appear...i got a link to the app in the market and on the top there is a bar that says the app is not compatible with your device? Is this a known issue?
I know there's been some market issues with liberty but I've been using go sms with it. I haven't had to download it since its been in my backup but it works fine, i'd assume if you can get the apk and side load it you'd have a work around.

yes but you should be backing everything up so i don't see why it matters. backup, wipe, flash, reboot, restore, reboot, and youre right back where you left off.
Edit: I think he has a patch in the thread as well if you really don't want to flash the new ROM, but like i said its pretty quick and painless if you use Titanium

Swype Beta.

I have recently got myself a tab and am really impressed with it on the whole, however I did find that the pre installed version of Swype is not very good at all soooo......
I used system app remover to remove it and then downloaded the Swype beta version from the Swype website. It is such a massive improvement!. I would recommend it to everyone...
No joke. I'm running the latest Swype beta on Galaxian Soup and it's a ton better than the version bundled with TouchWiz.
I'll try this. Thanks

can you use tibu to freeze the old swype and install the new one, or do you have to remove it alltogether?

Why freeze it? It's not a critical system app. Just back it up and uninstall it. But I doubt you'll be going back.

Inverted ICS APPS

Totally Inverted APPS (I take no credit for this)
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15092-invertedtotally-inverted-apps-4-22-contacts-and-mms-updated/
Here's a link to inverted apps for ICS. I haven't seen this here.
I CWM flashed the Contacts and MMS right in.
I'm running CM9 Beta 2. After install, I had to do a reboot because for some reason the home screen and app drawer wouldn't populate. After that seems to be runnning fine... and very smooth.

its in the APPS section....
*facepalm*
super sweet, thank you sir. these combined with the reloaded statusbar mod = freaking awesome experience
excellent, these were updated to remove the phone apk errors I was getting on the newer CM9 beta 3 and AOKP builds.
edit: can someone move this to the apps section?
Have you tried to use the "phone" app since flashing that modded contacts app? Since they didn't include it with their zip file, you may find that it says it's not installed anymore, even though the APK is there.
Anyone know of an inverted gtalk that works with cm9 b3 or aokp. All the ones I've tried have borked my phone and can't even re install the stock one without start all over with clean install.

They work fine. But you have to flash them. You can't just push them to the /system/app.

I did try talk with a couple zips I found but they would either not take or I would get a non inverted one. I found a zip in djdarknights dark ice theme Chooser thread since my last post and it has a bunch of inverted apps in the zip and it flashed just fine over the colbalt theme I'm using.

Yes, because the black pixels are"off" pixels which would save battery compared to bright colors.

Make a backup of your current mms apk first then uninstall and then boot into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, and flash the inverted mms apk and reboot.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
No, the inverted apps work ok with the exception of the contacts app, when you flash it, your phone will tell you there is no phone.apk when you try to use it. You can still make calls and get to the dialer through the people app, but it won't come up on it's own anymore.
That's what I thought. I've learned to live with all the bright white. Thanks.

[Kernel]Stock LG V9 Kernel

Once again, here we go. ********{this for the V9 software update. you can check software versions from the settings, about phone menu from your revo}***********
################################ FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK ##############################
Got the stock kernel from the latest LG/Verizon update V9.
Enjoy!!!!!
Download
Instructions: Download, boot cwm, flash, roboot, cook dinner, shower, do some laundry, save the world..... :victory: Have fun!!!!!!
## REMEMBER: give things time to settle. Things will get better, with the exception of horse power
NOTE: installation will wipe dalvik-cache. First boot will be looooooooooong, and mostly blank. Don't get scared. The stock 4G boot ani plays then screen goes blank for looooooooooooooong boot. Working on the boot ani thing.
****Any issues, Holla****
Edit: for some unknown reason, at least to me, your boot ani will be erased. Reinstalling does not work. Working on fix.
Edit: super user might have issues after installation. CWM 6.0.1.1 detected the error and corrected it for me. If you don't get an error on 'su' from cwm, then just reboot like normal and you 'may' have to reroot. easy work-around for now Does not affect cwm..
I haven't tried it but I aim to. Getting rid of the stock boot sound (annoying and obtrusive) would be great! Thanks for sharing your work.

Appreciate it mane. no sound on the boot. Just the ani, the 4g, purple, swirly thing.

I don't know a ton about how kernels and roms work with each other so sorry for the noob question...
Does this work with both the stock ROM and Broken Out? And would it interfere with a future ota update?
Thanks for your work!

Will this work if still on v8?
I'd make a back up first, but I don't see why not. There wasn't that much of a difference from v8 to v9. Let me know if you run into problems, if you try it. I'm just curious.

Hey, I just got a VOD on this kernal. Could it be because the minimum clock setting was too high or something? Thanks!

Both Titanium Back up and ROM Manager Pro get hung up, even after re-installing them, and I already got a screen freeze lol, guess its back to blitz. I'll try this again if I ever update to v9
Idk. I don't think it has anything to do with clock speed. I'm beginning to think vod is just a revo issue.

Good to hear. Still trying to figure out what's causing the screen freeze. And still working on being able to change the boot animation.

Not sure if this is an isolated incident but after using this stock kernel, I got Superuser (Elite installed) lockup and FC'ing. I couldn't get any root app to work. SU binary is latest v3.1.1 (17). I reverted to my latest BO v2.0 nandroid and all is fine again.
Only recent change I could think of prior was an updated Root Explorer which was coincidentally the first root program I attempted after. It err'd saying it was waiting for SU access and needed to be restarted, but that changed nothing. Neither did clearing SU and SU Elite data.

Honestly, now that you mention it I did notice that. Now that I look through the cwm logs, I see I had a su error while flashing. Apparently, the new cwm fixed it. Hmmm. Same for the wifey.
Good to know that root is still attainable.

Quick question. I followed the directions, going to cwm and installing this zip. When it comes back on, I go to about phone and it still shows it's on zv7. Is it ok to install the latest broken out revo, or is it safe to assume it didn't actually install zv9? I was previously on gingervolt zv7, any suggestions?
PS thanks for providing this btw!
