[Q] How can I get swype to work? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Everytime I try to use the skype beta it says the trial had ran out. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've been using a themed version of swype. But I'd like an official version. Thanks so much for any help.

If you are a legitimate beta user, then uninstall your SWYPE and your SWYPE INSTALLER. Go to the swype beta web site; log in; resend invitation. Open the email on your phone. Install the installer. Run the installer. Enter your beta login and password. Let it download the program. Click ENABLE on Swype. Open an email to send. Tap in the message area. Hold in the message area until a box comes up. Choose Input. Change to Swype. Done.
If you were using a hacked stolen warez copy of the beta, then you are out of luck. As betas, they expire. New legit copy came out yesterday.

[Q] Various questions after installing Sky Raider 2.5 Vanilla

Hello all. First off, lemme just say that this forum rocks. I've been lurking around Android Forums and now I've been lurking here and you guys might just be a little bit more awesome. .
So I installed Sky Raider 2.5 Vanilla and it's working great for me. I went from stock 2.1 and it's a nice improvement, but I do have some questions. Thank you for even reading this far!
#1: Using the dialer that comes installed with SR2.5V, I see all my contacts there. I really don't think the dialer that came with my Incredible listed them. Is there anyway to have it only show calls I've made instead of listing everyone?
#2: Is installing the Social Networking pack the only way to sync Facebook photos with my phones contact list? I tried using the Android Facebook application but it didn't work.
#3: I use the latest Swype beta and whenever I reboot my phone, I can't trace the letters. I can type fine using the Swype keyboard, but whenever I try to actually trace it doesn't go through to the input field. I have to switch to the Android keyboard then back to Swype for it to work.
I could have sworn I had more, I guess the dialer question is the one that really bothers me. Thanks for reading and thanks for any answers!
1. No..not at first but as calls come in they will be there
2. Yes
3. The swype beta expired..I reccommend usind the skinned ones under themes and apps

What social networking pack are you referring too? I would like to get that facebook contact integration back to its former glory as well.

Re #3...
If you signed up for the Swype Beta, go to beta.swype.com and request a new beta invite email. You will need to reinstall.
for the record goodies is in the app rom manager under download rom/ihftp69

[Q] No decent Email client for EVO?

All I want is 1 email client with a combined inbox (like Blackberry). I've tried every option available. I use gmail for personal Exchange for work.
Sense client is terrible and can't do combined inbox or push with gmail.
CM6 Email.apk doesn't word wrap for some reason so everyone has to scroll right to read my emails (even shows like this in my own sent items).
K9 doesn't support ActiveSync Exchange (NO idea why not, it is otherwise perfect).
Touchdown looks like crap and only supports 1 Exchange account (no combined inbox) but it has a ton of functionality.
Droid X and Galaxy S native email.apk are pretty awesome (at least better than the Sense one) but no one has ported to EVO yet. I've tried getting the apks but they do not install, even when deodex'd. It's pretty crazy that HTC gave a Froyo update but didn't bring any of the stock Froyo functionality sense we are still stuck with Sense 2.0...
Have you tried flashing the Email.apk from those others instead of installing them?
hmmm. I will have to do some research to see how to "flash" an .apk. I guess it has to go into a zip file with a certain file structure.

Yeah exactly but if you use clockwork recovery you can flash a unsigned zip..When I was using another gallery i used the zip attached to flash it in clockwork. you could use that as a template.
How about GeeMail? I haven't tried it yet, but I see no reason it won't work.

I have the donate version of ROM manager so I flash between clockwork and RA often. I'll give this a shot.
I'll also look into GeeMail. I'm willing to try anything.
It looks like GeeMail is a desktop application for gmail. I don't see any android versions...?

I tried replacing the gallery.apk with the email.apk from the Galaxy S and flashing this with Clockwork. It does not seem to have worked but Clockwork didn't show any kind of error or tell why it didn't work so I was unable to see what happened.

It is an Adobe AIR application. You just have to install Adobe AIR on the Droid.

AIR isn't available for Android yet. I know there is a beta but I'm not sure GeeMail is a solution anyway as it seems to only work with gmail, not Exchange.
Perfect solution would be K9 adding ActiveSync Exchange support but I can't figure out from the google code page if or when this would happen.
A good runner up would be getting the Samsung Galaxy S/Captivate client ported over to the EVO. I have a few coworkers with the Captivate and the client is great.

Yes, AIR for the 'Droid is beta, but it is a Public beta and it is working rather well.
Any good clients besides maildroid and k9

I really miss my Moment email app. I snagged the apk off of the Moment, but when i try to install it I get "application not installed".
This app can do multiple inboxes and exchanges.
We really need a good solution for evo. I'm surprised more people aren't complaining about this. I guess not many people use gmail and exchange?
Swyped on my EVO
When I got my moment I just based off my email to my gmail.
Sent from my Evo, using the xda app
Something needs to be done for sure. I have two Exchange mail servers that I need to connect to. My moment did that flawlessly. My iPad can do it since I jailbroke it and ran a teeny tiny app.
I got the Evo ignorantly thinking that this was standard for Android email.
I really hope someone figures out how to put the Moment email app on the Evo.
If anyone needs the apk to do that I'll send it to ya.
i came across this recently. i have not yet tried it.

MailDroid v1.41 (beta)
By joelangley. Updated August 25, 2010
Have you tried emailing the k9-mail developer and asking them to include exchange support? I've found most developers I've emailed are happy to receive suggestions on their apps. Couldnt hurt.
Isn't Active Sync something that requires a license from MS? I assumed that was why K9 didn't have it included.
I definitely want to see a better mail solution. Using exchange and gmail I have to keep two icons on the desktop to be able to go to an inbox. this should just be unified.

Email app + Swype keyboard issue

I use Exchange for work using the stock Email app that comes loaded on the phone. I am also using the factory installed Swype keyboard. Stock rom, I am now root, but experienced this issue before root as well.
When typing in the Email app only(I have not experienced this in the Gmail app or any other app) when you backspace and delete the entire word, it does basically a "delete" key on a keyboad and deletes one row below where you are typing, brining the paragraph below up one line. This is quite annoying when trying to type.
I tried adding my gmail to the Email app and experience the same issue. This doesnt seem to happen with the Samsung keyboard, only Swype. I know others mentioned there is a Swype beta we can install...anyone have a link for that?
Thanks all!
Ok so I'm stumped. I'm on cleanrom 2.1 experiencing the same issue using Swype beta from the Swype website. Could there be an issue with the Email app?
Will try to find another keyboard tomorrow.

Ran into this problem using the 4.2 keyboard on my GS3. I don't have a solution, however the Samsung keyboard allows me to enter a new line so I just use that for composing emails. Although I hate the stock keyboard. But it is better than having a sloppy email.
A video would help so we can see what you're talking about. Sounds like your screen is sensing the heat of your finger? Lol idk

4.2 Navionics app, Can someone test for me?

I have the APK's for an app. It will not work for me, can someone test if I e-mail them the APK? Or put it on my pogoplug?
Just need someone to see if the application will actually start and let them view the map.
Here is the APK

Why can't you test it yourself?
Also, it's a paid app, right ?

It doesn't work for me, I was having a lot of issues after updating to 4.2. I also just killed the ROM accidentaly at work
i have it. worked great for me.
Hi,
I tested my own Europe app and yours USA app. Both apps installed ok and worked once few minutes but now both apps are stopping at startup...
Officially these apps are not supported by Navionics for Nexus 7. So I don't know if there is a solution for this problem.

Change default download app (sound easy, right?)

I have ADM (advanced download manager) and it works great. But sometimes the links in pages don't get grabbed by ADM and the browser starts the transfer.
I'm pretty sure it's the stock app for the M9 because this happens with all installed browsers (6)
The aim is to have ADM download all apk files, regardless of browsers used.
Huge thanks for solving this

I want to stop this from happening..
So ADM takes over
Make sure auto intercept links is on in administration and story sharing the link to the app if that happens..

Yes it auto intercepts most files, but not all .apk files
The sites give a gibberish address that a simple copy paste won't work.
I want ADM to grab the coded .apk file within the URL and not directly copy paste.
However, I'm having trouble explaining and understanding your post..sorry

I have before but this is another issue from the browser
This is what I'm trying to disable, redirected to ADM
I understand what you mean, you want the downloads to be handled by only adm. The problem is that my adm seems to work fine but sometimes it won't pickup links as it should.
If you're having the problem of adm not kicking in at all i recommend uninstall and reinstall. Also, not accusing you of anything here, the proper Google play version will probably work better than a version downloaded from elsewhere.
It might be worth paying attention to what type of files and which type of website server (https or https) that it happens on. If you can post a link I can work with it would help a little.
Yep, I was using adm from another market. I'm using the google play version now and the problem still persists.
Here's the link of the culprit in subject. http://bit.ly/2qyTtzs
But as you will no doubt get the same result as you mentioned about adm not handling all generated links.

It will be an issue with adm. You're best bet us to approach them via the contact link in Google play. Give them all the information you have and the link to test with.
