how to update swype? - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

got jpo firmware and swype 2.1, i noticed that ver. 2.10 is released... how to update it? In italian language of course.
thx in advance

no one know how about it? because jpa rom got swype 2.6, jpo only 2.1....

you have to be part of the swype beta. i want to join to but its closed.
can anyone post the latest version.

I think its very annoying that we cant use the latest version of swype because its bundled together with the system. What kind of crap is that...

Go to Settings > Applications, select the third tab (All), find Swype, Clear Data, Uninstall... then go to /system/app/ and make sure Swype.apk is gone... then go to /system/lib/ and delete libSwypeCore.so
Reboot...
Then you can install any version of Swype you want.

Provided you are in the Swype Beta program or downloaded the 'warez version' of Swype.

That's my problem too since Darkys 5.5 ... (5.2 was ok). And I've tried to remove everything manually ... but after installing swype crashes by trying to start up.

First post here, i'm running Doc's 6.1, and my Swype is showing at 2.9.51.13071 :/

Mod edit:
APK's removed cause swype is considered to be warez.
Bans will be issued to those who post swype.apk

How to remove preinstalled Swype on i9000.
Your phone has to be rooted (with working busybox). You can do this via adb shell or via Terminal (from Market).
Code:
su (after su accept Superuser request on the phone)
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
rm /system/app/Swype*
rm /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
busybox mount -o remount,ro /system
pm uninstall com.swype.android.inputmethod

[APPS]Working keyboards for most EU countries (JPY)

Seems that there're always someone missing a language in the keyboards for new ROMs... I've gathered working keyboards tested on Darky's v7.7, and to me it looks like most European countries are in there.
Install with rootexplorer.
Unzip the the files in a folder on your sd-card.
BACKUP ORIGINAL FILES FIRST!
files in sys-app goes into /system/app
files in sys-lib goes into /system/lib
Open rootexplorer, go into "system", click "mount R/W" in upper right corner
AFTER you've backed up the original files, find the unzipped files on your sd-card and it's just a question of long press the files (eg. AxT9IME.apk) from from my .zip file on the keyboard you want and select copy, enter /system/app for .apk files, "paste" and let it overwrite, and /system/lib for the .so files.
Take them one by one if you're not used to working with rootexplorer.
When you're done, click the "mount R/O" in upper right corner and your done.
REMEMBER.. you can do serious damage to your rom if you delete or move essential system files.
This is at OWN risk!
If someone is willing to make a CWM zip-file please do, I just like the rootexplorer way better.

Normally I can always find something I don't use in the system directory. A widget or a program... (on the Desire I always removed games like Teeter and programs/widgets like Stocks) Maybe you could look through the directory and find one or two things to remove, then try again. Again, make sure you're in R/W mode.

I was able to open swype.apk with winrar and delete some language files that I dont need and then the apk installed just fine but the libSwypeCore.so is also larger than the original file.
So same problem with that file. How to open that file?

Samsung keyboard with 'all' available languages...

Dear Everybody,
At last week I made some research for make Central Europen keyboard available for everybody especially that every people who read XDA usually use tha latest UK ROM as the most fresh, always brand new system software. The UK ROM usually contain everything as the Android system in it is multilingual and has all features for almost everybody, but Samsung Keyboard (and sometimes Swype) is different a little bit from this aspect as these 1-2 softwares depend an your CSC settings. If you use UK ROM you will lose real multilingual keyboards, as for UK these are not really needed.
I'm in Hungary so I need real T9 with the latest ROM so... I made them
Based on Sztupy hints on deodexing the keyboards (lot of thanks for it!) and some research between the system files I got some practice so could make my original requests.
The solution:
On 2.1 (example in Galaxy S) the T9 was integrated the keyboard software itself, so when you deodexed the keyboard from one multilingual 2.1, after you deleted your current Sam's keyboard you could drop the deodexed one made a restart and everything was OK.
On 2.2 the T9 database is totally discrete in T9DB folder but need to use the correct deodexed keyboard software of course.
(You not realy need to backup your original or any ROM, etc, because you can rip all needed files in all situations from the corresponding .RFS files (factoryfs.rfs as that base system and cache.rfs as the CSC thingies))
As I have Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab also, after my research I made all available solution for myself and of course for you (on both device), if anybody wouldn't like to make it again.
This/my current keyboard files made from XWJM8 ROM (2.1) and XWJPI ROM (2.2) as the two latest Central European version, and safely usable with any JP* ROM.
Usage:
0, to safe use you need to swith onto any other keyboard and kill the Sam's one or make a restart. (This is not a real needed step, but for smooth switch this will help you to save yourself from some scary FC when you overwrite your system files...)
1, delete all your current keyboard files with adb or root explorer. The files:
/system/app/AxT9IME.apk
/system/app/AxT9IME.odex
/system/lib/libDHWR.so - lower or uppercase!
/system/lib/libXt9core.so
/system/T9DB - if available - just on 2.2 keyboard!
2, copy all my files into the system folders with the same logic.
/system/app/AxT9IME.apk
/system/lib/libDHWR.so
/system/lib/libXt9core.so
/system/T9DB - just on 2.2 keyboard!
3, for smooth and safe method set the permissions to 777 (rwrwrw)
4, restart your device just for safe.
5, try to set up your Sam's keyboard if there is no input language choices then just enable T9 and select UK as input langiugage, and restart again!
Wow, now you have almost all available T9 with latest Sam's keyboard in any ROM what you currently using.
Languages: (in 2.2, sorry but did not remeber about the 2.1 if anybody would like it...)
Bulgarian, Cestina, Dansk, Deutsch, Greek, English (UK), English (US), Espanol, Suomi, Francais, Hrvatski, Hungarian, Italiano, Nederlands, Norks, Polski, Portugues, Romana, Russia, Svenska, Turkice, ***, Slovenscina, Ukrainian, Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Serbian
Happy new year!
(See my attachment as the keyboard itself!
XWJM8 - the almost latest 2.1
XWJPI - the latest 2.2)

Good work!
I've really missed proper characters in the ROMs I've tried..
I am also looking for a missing language in Samsung keyboard.
I followed your steps and it looks like all went correctly, but as a result I have the option to change the languages, but my Bulgarian keyboard do not appear.
I am not sure if those files contain all internationalization data, as I installed the Gingerbread keyboard as well and got the same problem with it - there is Bulgarian to select, but does not appear once chosen.
I am recently trying Doc's ROMS with JPY base. Any idea?
Hi boyanovv!
I also tried this simple mod in order to get my native input language on SGS.
Had also the same problem, but after all it worked
Here is how I did (some parts may be useless, but maybe not):
Switched to Swype. Using Root Explorer moved .apk and 2 .so files, didn't had T9DB and .odex file. Uploaded modified files. Rebooted (didn't do 777). Went to settings, set input method to Samsung Keyboard. Disabled XT9, added my language to keyboard, didn't add English. Checked if it works, but didn't. Rebooted. Didn't work. Uploaded T9DB folder to /system/. Rebooted. Enabled XT9, set locale to English UK, removed all input languages. Rebooted. Added my needed languages and changed locale to US, disabled XT9. Rebooted. Worked, even russian
I used 2.2 files and I have DebusROM XXJPY.
regdude - thanx, gonna test your version.. atm I'm using the 2.1 keyboard, only I could get to work, but really preferred the 2.2.
Hi All,
Sorry for delay but I hadn't got free minutes in last days for gadgets, but refreshed the SGT pack with the latest and check this topic also. Without T9DB you will never get predictive dictionary of course but and as I tried to told you don't need .odex file as for usable for everybody I needed to deodex the keyboard software also. You just need that 4 things... The main .apk, the 2 .so and the needed dictionary files in /system/T9DB folder... with selected English and restarted device you need simply get those languages. I tried with not all but lot of them and the keys were correct and got dictionary also. Of course if you don't need you can use just those languages what you need not all but my pack contain lot of...
Hope everybody could use as I tested on 4 devices without problems. ( On Galaxy Tab I got some NEE files what missed from that ROM what I used for the multi pack, but over on it was everything OK. )
Bye...
thank you!
I can't get the one for 2.2 to work. I have follow all the steps in first post.
The keyboard pops up but I can't chose languages.
anyone has got it to work?

Same problem here.. I can set languages in settings.. but I can't slide the _ to change between the languages.. only a few are there. Another time I got it to work, my SMS got quite strange.. half my msgs got changed to Chinese, after I sent them, they were in Swedish on my phone, my girlfriend sent me some msgs back asking if I was joking with her.. lol
2.1 works, though I preferred the 2.2 T9 Keypad.
cant seem to get the 2.2 to work... or the keyboard works... but not the languages...

Same problem as me then. With the 2.1, I get at least Swedish, English and Croatian. However.. when I send SMS, sometimes half gets changed to Chinese(I don't see it, but my girlfriend was wondering what I was on when sending her texts in Chinese), I got no idea if it's the ROM or the keyboard that does it. Quite odd though.
After that I found the HTC_IME, it works quite well for me(girl don't get messages in Chinese anymore), but I still prefer the Samsung 2.2, if I could get it to work.

Hi! Can you enable all languages for Samsung Keyboard on Gingerbread 2.3.3???
I've installed this. Does T9 work. I enable it all everywhere and then try typing 843 on the t9 keypad and it doesn't change it to "the"
or any other word combo i try. Does it work for others. Maybe i'm missing something
you sure you enabled the correct keyboard?
English definitely should work, some of us that use other languages got problems, but English works for.
Also, another proper working T9 is the HTC_IME, you may wanna test it.

yea, I accidentally found it when I was trying to find a T9 keyboard for my HTC Tattoo, since it seems all devs like the gingerbread qwerty keyboard even on the low res 2.8", I tried on the Galaxy S and it worked perfect

Swype 3.5 with English/Greek [root]

Since many of us Greek users have a problem with the lack of Greek language in newest Swype, I am making this dedicated thread so that people can easily find the solution as well as to resolve future problems we might be having!
This should work for any ROM
Download Swype.apk
Download LibSwypeCore.so
For Greek language to work, you have to select French language in Swype settings. It is named French, but it is Greek
*Do this using a file explorer that supports root operations (my favorite is ES File explorer - go to settings > advanced > enable root operations)
Note: I do not know how made the modded files but I really appreciate his work
ΑΨΟΓΟΣ!!!
GREAT! THNX!
LONG LIVE PATRA!!
Greetings from Ptolemaida!
Amazing! Working graet!

And what can we do, so it can show "Greek" or «Ελληνικά» instead of French? =)

Why don't you make a .zip file so we can flash it using CWM? Or someone who knows about those stuff.
Sorry but you are not allowed to distribute Swype unless it's embedded in a ROM
this is the Swype policy and XDA policy as well

[FIX][APP] Swype 2.26.68 From JVR - AZERTY Bug Fixed

After long time using XDA to get what I needed, here goes my little contribution.
I love Swype keyboard, but no matter which rom I installed, I was never satisfy with the swype (if any)
My claim is more about included languages. I want to have EN-US, EN-UK, FR, PT (and PL if possible)
And I don't like Swype 3, to big IMO.
In last Sotck ROM Swype come with expected languages but azerty keyboard has a bug (line 7890 and special cars)
So i decided to correct this, I extract the Swype from last JVR.
So here we go:
Swype 2.26.68.19015.1027.GTI9000 with corrected AZERTY Keyboard.
Included languages are:
Code:
UK English
US English
Nederlands
Français
Deutch
Italiano
Korean?
Polski
Português Europeu
Español
Türkçe
Looks like due to the paid/beta stuff I can’t share directly the fixed APK
So you’ll find attached only the modified files.
A quick Howto modify swype yourself
Code:
1. Get Apkmanager. Get the Swype apk from your phone or JVR ROM and put it in APK Manager\place-apk-here-for-modding.
3. In Apkmanager, open the batch file called 'Script'.
4. Enter 22, select Swype, select 9 to decompile.
5. Copy the contents from zip file under APK Manager\projects\Swype.apk\assets\keyboards.
6. In 'Script', enter 11, Enter, system apk Y, copy file: hit n, Enter, hit 12, enter.
7. The new apk will be located in APK Manager\place-apk-here-for-modding.
8. rename it to Swype.apk and copy it over /system/app/ on your phone with any File Manager.
PS: Can anyone confirm if I can share the swype.apk ? or Can I upload to an external hoster? I’ve already done a cw zip update file.
you can only share Swype in the form of a ROM, not as an APK
and only for phones that originally was shipped with Swype

Greek Text Prediction for Gingerbread Keyboard

Hello all,
I recently became a ZTE Blade owner and I decided to flash it with the latest CM 7.1.0 RC1 ROM, only to find out that the stock Android keyboard does not yet support text prediction in Greek. Since I didn't want to install a third-party Greek IME from the market, I decided to inject a Greek dictionary found in a previous CM release (6.1.2) inside the already existing LatinIME.apk.
Other than the addition of the Greek dictionary, this LatinIME.apk is just like the stock one found in CM 7.1.0 RC1. It was decompiled/recompiled/signed with APK Manager. I don't know if it's going to work on other devices/ROMs, but you can try and share your results.
UPDATE: Apparently there was a minor problem with the keyboard, causing the "&" symbol to display as "&amp". I corrected it a couple of days after posting the APK here, but I forgot to update this post. I have now uploaded the correct APK and updated the link below, let me know if it works.
How to install:
1. Navigate to /system/app using Root Explorer and copy your existing LatinIME.apk to a backup folder in your SD card (just to be sure, should things go wrong).
2. Use Root Explorer to mount /system/app as R/W and then paste the new LatinIME.apk inside this folder. Change the file's permissions to rw-r--r-- after pasting.
3. Reboot your device and go to Settings > Language & Keyboard > Android Keyboard > Input Languages. Under Greek, it should now say "Dictionary available".
Download Link:

Works perfectly with Cyanogen 7.03 and wildfire.
Thanks!
Works Great on HTC Hero running Elelinux-7.1-Hero-Custom-v2 (Cyanogenmod 7.1 based)
A.I.type Keyboard will support Greek text prediction soon
We are releasing Spanish and Hebrew today. German and French next week. Then Arabic, Italian, Portuguese and Greek (in no particular order). So we hope to support Greek within a month and a half.
They keyboard itself already supports Greek, but doesn't provide text prediction, corrections and completions in this language.
FYI.

Fantastic work
Works really well with my Acer Liquid Metal
Thanks
