You can use the Swype installed on your device or the beta version, they should both work fine. You would probably want to remove the Sprint Swype first before installing the beta. I went back to the beta initially as it wasn't included in my ROM choice, but ended up figuring out how to use the Sprint Swype and jumped back to that. I believe they both work about the same in my experience. If its just theming you are after, I recommend checking here. It themes the keyboard picture and the trace line, and in my opinion looks a lot sharper than the Sprint or Beta Swype. You have to be comfortable with root and metamorph however.

Newest swype beta (2.29.71.xx), any themes yet?

The newest swype beta came out a few weeks ago and I simply don't use it becaues it's so damn ugly, hah. Has anyone themed it yet? I find that the swype beta works WAY better for me for some reason, so I don't want to push the official to my phone. I've tried moving the app to the proper locations for the existing Metamorph themes to act on it, but it always ends up breaking swype (it didn't used to). AFAIK, the current themes at the moment only work on the old betas and the "official" for sense roms. Anyone know of themes for the latest beta?
For the record I'm on CM7 RC3.
Well... still no luck in my own search, but this thread was updated by the OP today:

I use the ICS Keyboard which has been ported to Gingerbread (Market)
If you delete swype from your phone and install the new beta from their website, it is the best swipe to type keyboard for android

AGREE!!!
I also deleted Swype and downloaded Swype beta. defintily worth a try.
Only thing for me was that it show a little pop up saying that swype can read all details you type in using it (passwords, credit card details etc.) when you activate it after install.
But in most cases if its a real private thing I am typing I am hust quickly switching back to samsung keyboard.
the keyboard is very nice gingerbread!
has the view of windows phone and is very cute! recommend you try this too! You can also download the dictionary for those languages ​​for the completion of words!

SlideIT vs TouchPal

Unlike my last device the Galaxy Nexus does not come with Swype. So, I have been testing both SlideIT and TouchPal.
So, far I would give TouchPal a slight edge as it is easier to see the predictive word choices for me and adding to the dictionary is super easy. Accuracy of both TouchPal and SlideIT appear to be about the same with a slight favor to TouchPal for me.
SlideIT feels like it can do more, but maybe I have just not fully explored it yet. Or maybe the interface just seems busier to me.
Regardless, I think when my SLideIT trial ends in about 5 days I will opt to keep TouchPal. But as this is a neck-and-neck race, I can still be swayed.
Anyone have any thoughts that might help me choose?
Thanks!
You do know that there's a beta version of Swype available for the GNex, right?

[Q] Android 4.2.2 Keyboard AOSP

Hey All,
Jelly Beer's 4.2.2 update worked great on my Samsung S3. However, I went out and purchased a new Note 2 GT-N7100 T-Mobile T889. I love the phone. The only problem is that I got used to the keyboard that the guys included in with Jelly Beer 4.2.2 update. In the Input settings, the keyboard is listed as Android keyboard (AOSP). That's the keyboard that I want.
The one that came with the Note 2 is Samsung's own and it's awful. Yes, yes, yes, I've installed just about every other keyboard out there. I've purchased the paid versions and all. Still, nothing does the job as well as the keyboard AOSP. I was literally going to toss the phone because I can't type on it. Then I started to use the gesture part of it, and I'm getting used to that. However, I still want the AOSP one. I've looked all over in the Play store and nothing.
Does anyone have the direct link or the actual .apk that I can download?
Would really appreciate it.
Google keyboard from the play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.inputmethod.latin

I am wanting the same thing.
yes, there is a google keyboard in the app store. but its not the same as AOSP, AOSP has the symbols as long hold on the letter keys. and you can long press the "." and slide to choose ?! and others.
I tried pulling out the aosp keyboard from carbon rom, if I just install it, it works, but no sliding to type (like swype) and if I move it to system/app and set permissions, then reset, it just force closes... so... it kind of works... but I would really like to be able to slide type.
