Hi I just flashed a new rom (Infected Inspire4g) and I cant get swype to work. I have tried ripping apks from other roms and the official swype beta with no luck is there anything out there that will work. Please lmk it would be much appreciated.

Which version is that?
The only Gingerbread friendly swipe version is the one that is in the Double shot port, but it runs SLOW SLOW SLOW.
Anyone have any ideas as how to fix that?
I can attach the APK and Lib File here is someone wants to check it out.

Dude, You didnt have to take it down, im sure people will still use it.
the problem with the non GB friendly version is you still get the pop up box, which then is blocked by the GB little word grabber things.
For the most part, it is usable, but the correction box is extremely limited in use.

I have like 5 different keyboards on my phone... and i can barely use any of them. I wish i could get the GB swype working better, but right now it is SOOO slow to just come up that it pisses me off.
Might want to invest in a tracext9 or somethign like that. Its in the market. Supposedly better than swype and has a ton of features. I have the earliest version and since it doesnt have an editable dictionary, i cant stand using it.

Yeah there is so much bs surrounding swype...I think I will check out tracext9.
OP,
There are two files you need to just yank out of the original ROM:
1. Swype.apk
2. libSwypeCore.so
Mount /system/lib as r/w, put libSwypeCore.so in it, then change perms back to r/o
Mount /system/app as r/w, put the Swype.apk in there, install it, then change perms back.
OR, you can just signup at http://beta.swype.com/ then download and install their "Installer" and install Swype from it.
EDIT: Honestly, though, I think this one is better: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nuance.flext9.input
EDIT2: I don't know why others are having problems. I've used Swype on GB (CM7) without any issues at all

The newest beta has disabled that popup annoyance. Just sign up for the beta and be always in on the most current swype.

What do you mean when you say it isn't working? Does swype FC? Does it not open? Can you type single characters & but not swype a word?
If you can you type single characters & but not swype a word, change your input method to another keyboard and then back to swype. It should work until you reboot.

Nah I am a member and I download the swype installer and it just hangs there at login. I have tried multiple times no luck. I have FlexT9 now its good but not quite swype.
i have the ota zip from when it first came to our evos and that has worked with every rom ive tried thus far gb (cm7, deck, miui, virus 3.0) and froyo.

Please could you post that. I would be forever grateful.
I'm a big Swype fan and have always used it on my EVO but I got tired of trying to get it to work on my Nook Color and Xoom.
Even though I resisted all of the suggestions to do so, I finally bit the bullet and bought SlideIt keyboard from the market. It's about as good as Swype and it works on everything I've installed it on.

the only place i know where to get swype is from 4shared.apk,im running cm7 on evo,and installed it from there and it works grreat.only thing is,#1-have a file manager.#2-go to settings>applications>check unknown sources>and then>4shared.apk,another thing,you have to sift thru alot of them to find which apk will work.good luck
sorry,i didnt mention this before,but 4shared.apk is a website that you can search and download apps straight to your phone.been there many times and have alot of useful apps there for free,and they are all FULL versions,have fun once youre there,they have about 60,000 free full apps by now im sure

Is there progress for Swype on AOSP roms such as CM7 or.. Others? I left Sense-based roms from EViO and while it was very fast, I don't see myself going back. The only thing I miss, however, is swype. Now, I know that XDA is the best damn crew of developers when it comes to 'phone' software. I still haven't seen any threads about it though. Is there progress?
What kind of progress are you looking for? Find an .apk for it, install it and voila! Now you have Swype on your AOSP ROM.
What I am doing: sign up for beta. Then install the beta.
While waiting to be accepted, try this: take swype.apk from system app and libswypecore.so from system lib, and push to the same places on cm7. Worth a shot. Just backup first.

Plus the Beta is more up to date than the copy that is getting shipped with 3.70 roms. It has more features and functionality.
I'm going to quietly post and let this die..
I can't believe I didn't actually try one of the .apks. I thought I heard that swype was only being developed for sense-based roms but thinking about it now I realize how stupid that is. I also thought that swype had some kind of authentication but I don't know where that came from. Wow. I apologise for wasting youse guyses time.

Does anyone know if it's possible to use the Gingerbread keyboard with this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=874251
If so, does anyone have a link? I've looked through as much of this forum as I can and my eyes are crossing from finding non-useful info. Thanks guys.
it probably is. here's an untested flashable zip i just whipped up of the stock gb keyboard. it'll install it to the system. install with amon-ra recovery.
btw you should probably flash a custom rom. they have so many advantages over stock.
this won't work with clockworkmod 3.0+. again, i didn't test this, but it should work. i just popped the apk right out of the newest cm7 nightly.
long press on a text box and choose imput method, then android keyboard to use.

Don't feel bad, you're not the only one.
Sorry I didn't reply earlier guys.. Laptop died last night and I didn't feel like plugging it back in haha. But I did try and flash the keyboard with Amon RA and it doesn't show up as an option when long-pressing a text input field. I get Swype and Touch Input. Touch Input is just the regular Sense keyboard and Swype is well....Swype.

Hi all, I recently flashed my SGS 2 with Angelo ROM but I have noticed over the last couple of days that no ROM has the gingerbread keyboard. I have a .zip file, but the CWM I have is giving me the E: bloody signature verification failed message.
Does anybody here have a custom CWM that I can use to flash it, or an alternate gingerbread keyboard installation type thing?
Also, I wanted to know if anyone could tell me where to store external wallpapers in the root system so the wallpaper pickers find them automatically?

Just install the APK, noCWM needed. You may need to root your phone, not sure because I never tried on stock. if you need root, go there.

I literally only just found the bottom of your message (teach me for reading on my phone late at night). I don't have a .apk for it, only a flashable zip file. I'd still like a custom CWM so I can install other zip files too though.
@yamanote, @norpan111 what is the app called in the market, searching "gingerbread keyboard" is not turning it up for me.
EDIT: I found it! All installed although my one is still prettier. Can anyone help me with my CWM/Wallpaper issues?
EDIT AGAIN: Frustrating! My lockscreen has vanished again and the home button on the phone doesn't actually take me to the homescreen anymore. Has anybody had the same problem?
'Keyboard from Android 2.3' by Steven Lin. It's free.
Just wondering, how is yours prettier? Too lazy to install to see
The one I used to have, and -was- able to install on this phone was from here:
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/app-14-04-11-new-themed-gingerbread-kyb-fully-working-edited-few-links.689/
in this style:
Argh, I can't use a keyboard that doesn't have a comma on the main text page.
Swiftkey X is the best I've used yet. It would be perfect if it had Swype style functionality as I can't use Swype due the the stupid number placement - calculator style instead of keyboard style.
to be fair, I thought I wasn't going to be able to deal without swype, but someone recommended the Gingerbread Keyboard to me, so I tried it. After some trial and error I couldn't do without it... probably until the next best thing comes along.
I'm a butterfingers, I need something more intelligent than me keeping an eye on what I'm actually typing.
Well for about 2 weeks I have been running nocturnals bliss version 6 and I love it. There's bugs yes but the smoothest Rom I have had since I can remember. It's a great Rom just needs more bugs worked out but I can't seem to figure out why no ones doing it anymore. It's a great Rom and I have tried other 3.5 and nothing matches up. I love the two buttons app drawer and the call and the quick lunch. But over all its so smooth. So I'm just wondering if anyone picked this up or want to with me or if there's something that's the same but different. So just pm or message me if you guys have any ideas or want to help ect. So please help.
Sent from my EVO running bliss v6 3.5 sense using XDA App
Can anyone help me? Simple stuff needs fixed like usd disk drive wont pop up and that if you turn off or reboot the phone all the apps you installed get uninstalled but the app manager says there still in stalled just no as like facebook mor like .comfacebook and has a picture of the android market. So all in all can someone help me?
Or can someone help me with putting the little features like the app drawer button and the phone button on the main screen on another 3.5 sense rom? Because thats the best part other then the quick launch widget and how smooth it is. So anyone please help.
I don't specialize in sense, but you may want to back it up and try another sense rom, as nocturnal pulled their work on that rom due to drama basically.
Well can someone point me in the direction of fixing up this rom my self or mod others to have what i love about this the most?
those sound like some big bugs. dono if you want to try another rom as others mentioned but im running fearmede, they just released rc1 last noight after numerous betas and its butter, sense 3.5 and the fastest smoothest rom ive had so far.
But none of them have the two buttons thing that is my favorite.
You could try extracting the framework-res.apk and then flashing it in the new rom.

You'll have to move it to the /system/app directory I believe, and once you replace it, you'll most likely get fcs immediately, just reboot at that point.

I believe that is is possible. you also need the .jar files, as well as the lib files. i had a zip to make it work on the x10. i'll see if i can find it.
Pvy.
default
the default keyboard in arc s would be international keyboard.. from SE
its apk file is there in system/app.
@Pvy - Thanks Mate!
@Samson - The ONLY other thread I could find was skinning the default keyboard to black.. Nothing Else
I'm asking for SE Keyboard on CM7.2
@Arcman - I'm on Arc, Not Arc S
Anyway, I know about the file but its not either getting installed not getting detected if i copy paste it.
Also Even If i replace the current apk with this and changing permissions, still nothing happens
,..
don"t worry..
there are so many keyboards available in android market which are far better than
international keyboard
SlideIT, Smart Keyboard, Go Keyboard
Tried 3, Didnt quite work out
So no way to do that?
and Any better alternative their in which i can swype aswell?
Yes, the Swype keyboard might be good

Swype is the best 3rd party keyboard app, imo.

Well, Many...
1 - The lowermost keys dont work
I mean the space bar and enter..... Well, dey only work when you touch the upper part of them!
Both in Landscape and Potrait mode!
2 - I want the Swiping Feature!
3 - That shortcut key to graphical smileys next to the symbols key!
4 - Well, when I type in a word, and I press enter, it does not go to the next line, in fact its like it 'accepts' the input. And I have to press the return key again.
And as i like my typings to go fast and efficient, It dosent go that ways. :|
If you can find a work around to all these in CM7.2, I'll Practically Worship you!!!
OR, Get the original stock Arc Keyboard back!
I want it too
I hate Cyanogenmod keyboard Will try MIUI in few download minutes
