It keeps telling me that the license is invalid. I can manually type but the swype feature doesn't input anything.
I had the same thing happen on a different ROM. Just had to uninstall and reinstall.
Hmmm... i'll try again. Thanks.

There's a thread in the inc1 forums (general or q&a) that has instructions on getting swype working on MIUI. Should be able to find it with a quick search.
Reboot after installing and it should work fine. Then you should be able to select it as an input method.
Swyped this on miui.
PS...if you want to backup and flash a new version of miui (updates once a week) be sure to back up swype, along with your other apps, using the miui backup tool. Restoring swype allows it to work just fine without the need to reinstall after flashing.
The reinstall worked.thanks mate

Not sure if this info has been posted anywhere. So, I would like to know if there is any way to install APKs from a different rom onto current rom. I am currently running IncRom 1.2, but I have never been a fan of Sense dialers. I would like to install either MIUI dialer or any 2.3 based dialer. Is it possible, and if so, how would I go about doing that? Any info. would be greatly appreciated.
Just download whatever rom you want the apk from and put it onto your new rom? I hope that makes sense as I can't think of a better way to explain ...

I get what you're saying and I've tried that before, but then I always get force closes on phone app. What I've done before is grab apk from 2nd rom, place it in place of apk in current rom. I've tried zipping after that, and not zipping the file. After trying both ways, I reinstall rom, then run into the force close issue. Do I need to reinstall Rom after that? Or am I not even doing this the right way?
You need to fix the permission after you put it into your rom. I use root explorer and its two boxes for the first row then one for the other two.

Sounds good. Will try fixing permissions. Will report back on results. BTW, thanks for the help so far.
I don't think it is possible because the phone apk is tied into the framework. Please correct me if I'm wrong

I fixed permissions, removed current phone.apk and replaced it with the fixed phone.apk. I rezipped rom and reinstalled. Once it was up and running I was right back where I started with the original phone.apk, minus the fc's.

I know this works with the music.apk as I've done it in the past just replacing the stock app with the gingerbread music app and it worked just fine after setting permissions. But now that I think about it more I think I also had to install it just like a regualr app to get all the files in place then set permissions not just replace the file in the system/app folder.
The phone apk ties into other programs. It is not a stand alone flash. There would need to be some code changes to make it work.
Seems like too much work for me. Appreciate the ideas & help you guys offered.

Check out incredibly re-engineered...
Aosp dialer will probably not work on a Sense based roms as Sense is a UI overlayed and pretty deeply integrated into the Android os. You may want to consider one of the dialer options from market...Dialer one is popular. Or you may just want to consider moving to an aosp rom.

I have been trying to install reengineered but ever since I updated clockworkmod I can't. That's besides the point. I have used a few aosp roms but miss out on Sense. Guess I have my cake, but can't eat it. Oh well.

Downgrade clockwork or reflash via recovery. You wont be dissapointed.

Who are you asking? I never uninstalled stock messaging so I'm not sure who you are directing that towards. This was my first attempt at trying to move apks around so I don't have enough info.
I downloaded the swype installer off the web site and it installs, but just recognizes that it is anyway. Is there a way to update to the latest version?

I'm assuming you went and joined the "beta" to get the installer...that would be the newest version available. So, if you download the installer and it says you're updated...than you are! I've got the most recent version (I believe) and I'm on v 3.25.91D.31083.t100 (you can find this by hitting menu>settings>language & keyboard>Swype at the very bottom should be the version #.
You may need to uninstall the 'stock' Swype before you can install the beta. I used TitaniumBackup (need to be rooted) and it worked fine. It can autospace one letter words correctly now.

click on backup/restore, scroll down to Swype, click on it and press wipe data, click on it again and press un-install...i usually press Menu, more and then clean up the dalvik cache.

Or you could download this and simply install it like a normal app.

I'm using Swype for the original Epic and it works 100% I just renamed the stock Swype with a ".bak" extension and left it in place.

You need to either uninstall the old one or as another poster suggested, rename the stock swype.apk (I opted to keep the stock and renamed it to swype.apk.BAK.) Then install the .apk from the link in this thread and it will work. If you don't uninstall or rename the stock swype.apk, it will revert to stock on reboot.
Is this the all black modded Swype? If not anyone know where I can find it! Been searching high and low, oh yeah already googled
Make sure you delete libswype.so otherwise it will not work

I pushed the Swype from syndicate ice rom and all of the sudden I had the same problem I used root explorer went back to the apk and installed it again and now it's working again hopefully this helps?

Use titanium to uninstall, then try again. For some reason I had to do it twice though.
After uninstalling with Titanium Backup, reboot the phone then install the Swype Beta. Works for me every time.
Ah the reboot is probably why i needed to do it twice. Thanks.

Another option
Another thing to try is use Root Explorer to delete the libswypecore.so file from system/lib/ I had to do this and then install the new beta and then it works.
I rooted my brothers phone for him about a year ago and I usually don't have a problem maintaining his "rootness'; except for this time.
He's running MIui and wants to switch to cyanogenmod. When he goes into titanium backup, he's getting a message that says "sorry, I can not acquire root privelages. This application *not* work. Please verify that your rom is rooted and includes busy box and try again".
I went to the superuser app and made sure he had root privelages, which he does, and also downloaded a busybox installler from the market and it is said he already had a busybox installed but i reinstalled it and the application said it has successfully installled. Yet, titanium backup continues to show the same message.
The weird part is, is that titanium backup works without a problem on sense roms.

Try hitting the problems button within TB. It will install a good version of busybox for it. It might help. Idk

Under preferences, it only offers a superuser update not a busybox

Try updating the su. Some of the first 3.0.? versions make you lose root. In the new version 3.0.? that problem has been fixed.

You know I just realized I still use a really old version of TB. It's probably diff now. On mine there is a button on the main Page that just says problems? which dl a compatible version of busybox. They must have changed it. Sorry man

Its updated

Problem solved: I went into titanium backup preferences and hit" force system busybox". I will give thanks to everyone who tried to help.

I knew they wouldn't have ditched that feature. They just changed the name. Glad you figured it out. I'd be lost without TB.

I flashed the newest version of Apex (1.0.2) from the stock rom after I backed up and cleared everything and after the finished installing the Gapps my Market no longer works or Talk and the others. It seems that when I go to Titanium backup their text is read so I tried to clear the catch, restore it and all that. So I purchased TB hoping that it would fix itself but no luck whatsoever.
I really need help here guys!

Go to the apex forum and see if it's a common thing for that version. If not then reflash the rom
