It's the Swype.apk right? You should just have to reboot, or go into terminal and try su and then sync and reboot and let me know if it works for you.

No, my problem is, with themed swypes, it'll be there for like a week, then just disapear. Not able to use it, but the apk is still there. Usually, I reflash the stock rom and start over, but I'm tired of doing that.

Oh do you still have the swype installer .apk installed because it might be reinstalling the stock swype?(I don't know if that's how the installer works but anythings possible)..... Im not trying to undermine you but its easy to over look the small stuff lol....
Here's what I do.
Flash stock rom
Deodex it
Flash theme that includes swype
After a bit, the themed swype seems to stop working.
Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G.
If you backup the swype that it keeps reverting to and post it here along with the themed swype, I could look at it.... if you swap the assets/keyboards folders it might fix it because it wouldn't have anything to revert back to but that's just theory so far :/
EDIT: Nevermind I completely missed that :/ ugh this is a weird bug....... id still like to see the apk's to try to replicate the issue
Its the swype from Orange Eternity theme.
I might reflash everything, and remove the themed swype for now. It's so weird because it just stops working after a while, and no, reflashing the theme doesn't work.

Im on EH06 at the moment :/ I took the swype app out of the theme and put it in a zip by itself but swype force closed on me the second I booted up after flashing it :/ I wish I knew the fix for ya..... please don't flame me for this but may I suggest you use the sprint swype and theme it for Orange Eternity? Its an awesome update if you haven't tried it yet...
Ok, quick fix.
Either flash one of overstews swypes and then yours or replace his with yours. I've never had one try to reinstall over mine.
Ok, I dont think you get It lol. I dont have a swype trying to install over another. Its the same swype, thats fine one minutes, then gone the next. Its happened with two swypes. Maddoggins simply blue theme had a blue swype that did this, now the one in Orange Eternity is doing it. Is it possible that its the way I'm deodexing the stock rom?
This is what I used to deodex:

I installed the no carrier IQ SyndicateROM Frozen 1.0 this week, and love it. It smokes, gives me more speed and finally I have a decent keyboard. I wasn't especially fond of the transparent pull down, so I flashed the stock theme add-on.
Well, that's all fine and good, works as promised, but I realize now that I would rather have the numerical battery indicator as well as some other minor mods that were in the original theme. Is there a simple way to return to the default theme for this ROM?
Cohiba asked a similar question in the monster thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976194 ) but never got an answer. Or, at least, didn't get answered in the first 124 pages, and I did in fact read them all.
So, any advice? I guess I could reflash the ROM, then the kernel update, but that seems crazy compared to the 2 second theme flash that got me to where I am. I just want to undo the stock theme and go back to the default theme.
If you didn't backup prior to flashing theme you will have to wipe and flash rom again.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Try Emotionless Beast. Trust me, you won't regret it!
The battery icon, as well as all of the other icons are much cooler than stock or even the theme that comes with Frozen. Then you can use whatever launcher and wallpaper you want to get it where you like. MysteryEmotionz did a great job with this theme and it truly is optimized to work well with Frozen.
OK, I went ahead and grabbed Emotionless Beast (both files, to get the SFR update) and I'm running with it. It looks good, although I wish there were some simple way to make my gmail new messages stand out more. In the default app, they were bold and others were regular font, but now I have a hard time telling the difference. Thanks for the advice--I'll play with this all day, I'm afraid.
I am running this theme and love it.

usually you can just flash the rom again without a wipe and it will replace those files. Havent done it with this rom yet though so do a back up and maybe just clear cache and nothing else.

The only Gingerbread friendly swipe version is the one that is in the Double shot port, but it runs SLOW SLOW SLOW.

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

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.

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
I change themes quite often, but only one theme that I've come across for the Samsung Epic that uses AOSP messaging as opposed the the default "Samsung messaging" (I guess you could call it), is Engraved Blues. I've used that theme for the longest, mostly because it has AOSP messaging. It comes with WAY more user functionality than the limited "Samsung Messaging." Is there anyone that could put AOSP Messaging into a flashable zip? That way, I can use whatever theme I chose, and still have AOSP Messaging. I would really appreciate it if this could be done!
I'd even be willing to learn how to do it. I usually don't request, and tinker with things on my own, but I'd need some help with this one. If someone wants to walk me through the process, I'd be even more appreciative, because I wouldn't have to ask for these kinds of things!
I don't know what you mean by AOSP messaging but Impaler's transparent MMS are flashable zips. They both look and run very well. Give one of them a try. Just download and flash in CWM.

AOSP messaging is I guess stock Android messaging. At least that's what someone told me a while back. There are noticeable differences. Probably one of the most important is the fact that with default Sammy messaging, when messages come in while I'm roaming, they are 4 hours in advance. For some reason, this isn't the case with AOSP messaging. It's really weird. There are also options for vibration types, and you're also able to change the font size of the messages. None of these options are present in Sammy messaging, AND, there are no chat balloons; just color backgrounds.
The MOST important reason I prefer AOSP is because for whatever reason, I cannot pinpoint, whenever I run a ROM with Samsung's messaging app, the phone tends to randomly restart. Ever since I've been using Engraved Blues with AOSP messaging, the random restarts are nonexistent. No reboots whatsoever! My phone has been super stable with SRF 1.1.1 and Engraved Blues. I don't know why it causes those reboots, and I don't have my messaging set to keep a lot of messages. Maybe 50 at the most.
Impaler's transparent messaging is based off of Samsung's Android messaging app and while it looks awesomely sweet, I've had the same unfortunate reboots as it seems to be based off of Sammy messaging.
EDIT: Ok, just noticed this in his thread.
These apps are the 2.2 MMS app, only about 50 times better than Samsung could have ever made it...

I haven't really had any problems with what you mentioned. I would say give it a try. I think you will be pretty happy. His messaging app is always the first mod I flash after flashing a new ROM or theme. If it doesn't work for you, sorry.
I have that same problem with Swype where when I'm roaming all my messages read 4 hours ahead of time. Gets really bothersome. I can't live without swype anymore though.

Funny thing is that before I installed the Engraved Blues theme, I thought that the Samsung messaging app was standard Android. If I hadn't come across the theme, I wouldn't have known a thing about AOSP messaging. And what's with that roaming problem? Man, that's so annoying! How'd Samsung let that one out of the gate with that glaring problem???

I've asked a few times in the general forum unsuccesfully to see if anyone knew how to fix this, and just bumped my last unsucessful attempt, but I thought maybe this would get me a little farther. Can someone maybe try to get the original nexus s launcher to work right for eg22. I was using ai3 for a while and I knew that ef02 was having the same issue but marcusant was able to get the nexus s launcher working. Basically when you try to install it/including the versions from the market , they will display strangely and fuzzy like they are in the wrong resolution or something. If anyone would take a crack at it though, that'd be awesome.
Last minute notes too, I've tried pulling the launcher2.apk from marcusants rom and put it in bonzai/stock eg22 and that didn't seem to do the trick either.
