Yea everyone is having this problem. I uninstalled this Swype and loaded the nexus a 4g Swype and that works fine. Also the beta version fixes this too

shouldn't titanium backup be able to uninstall it?

You don't have to be rooted. Install the nexus swype and it will overwrite it. It will say something like do you want to upgrade a system app and you say yes. Titanium requires root.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

You need to remove /system/app/Swype.apk and /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so to uninstall it. I had issues when I did that though and got force closes once I installed the latest beta.

Ok so how can we stop the fc's?

worked great

Ya this one letter thing is a pain. Anyone have a link to the working apk file? does it also do the auto punctuation thing too?

Try this:
1) Use titanium back up to remove swype. Inside TB, go to settings/more/clean dalvik. Reboot.
2) Install from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220218
3) Enjoy.

follow the link above..fixes all issues. Use swype installer so no apk needed..

Only down side is the beta is ugly as balls. Ugly enough that I'd rather just hit the space bar until Samsung/Swype puts out a fixed version.
Unless someone wants to theme the beta using the style from the preloaded version. I'll even pull and post the .pngs if someone is willing.

Try the sprint version for epic 4g. It looks very nice. Post #15.

I must be blind or something as I do not see it in the post mentioned. Are you downloading and then pulling the apk?

[How to] Install Swype on the Galaxy Nexus

Figured I'd post this, as I have gotten some questions asking about it.
This video will show you how to install the Swype keyboard on your Gnex.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Heir6BIrt04

As I already have it installed, not watching the video. But I wanted to add this, make sure you have 320 dpi our it will not install.

Did Google remove the press to hold and change keyboard input option? I keep having to go change it in settings and that's a bit of an annoyance. I like to change keyboards every so often.

When you bring up the keyboard, there is an icon on the top notification bar. Select from there.
Finally, some Swype action!

Okay, so that's what that was. Lol. I was becoming frustrated that the little icon was up there so I assumed it was Swype spamming me. Thanks a lot! I guess it doesn't show up until you have more than one keyboard available.

has anyone been able to download any language files?
it seems the download capability is broken. I couldn't download any language files or dragon feature.
p.s.
Downloading works but it just needs some time.

Downloading the additional languages seems a little buggy. Sometimes the option completely disappears from the menus( even whilst being connected to wifi the whole time). It's not a conclusive method of getting the menu option back but I think running the swype setup/installer app when swype is already installed seemed to bring it back for me. Then several times when opening the download languages menu it sat with the loading twirly for ages and ages.
Also when finally getting the list of languages and downloading my desired language, the downloading was fairly fast but installing took ages.
What was also funny was swype had defaulted to Spanish when I first downloaded it and I was wondering why it's predictions had become so seemingly odd....

You can't. It's the way you change keyboard in ICS (except stock keyboard which is long press space).
The norification will stay there unless Swype implements the ICS way to change keyboard.

I'm using Swype whole mounth. build that I found works perfectly in my g nexus.
I can give apk if somebody wants. Also it supports lots of languages.

and I don't have any keyboard icon at top bar. It works how it must (like in 2.3).
But there one BUT: it uses nuance dictation (or dragon) that's no t so cool as default goggle's

You're using the hacked version, which is already online. This thread is about the OFFICIAL one which cannot be shared as it'd be classed as warez

Having problems installing the Swype beta?

I nor any of my friends can seem to get the official installer past the "parsing package" error. Was wondering if anyone else had better luck with it.
Thanks
Edit: We have a couple of members who have extracted the apk and posted it here. (check this post)
Despite hundreds of complaints on Swype's side, they refuse to neither rectify nor even acknowledge that there's a real problem. In any case, XDA is here to help you.
As per Swype's licensing, only download said APKs if you are currently in the Swype beta program.
Enjoy

mine worked. I know of a couple friends with the same problem though.

Had that error a few times, changed over to 3G connection and worked fine.

I've tried both connections multiple times and am still getting parsing errors

Ditto. I gotta see what I could do about extracting an APK to just install it directly.

have the same problem u described when i downloaded the installer apk through the email link. so i went back to my prev phone and took the backup from titanium and installed it. take note of the following though:
1. if u restore both the swype installer and swype keyboard, the keyboard would end up being very small. changing orientations didn't seem to help like what others have suggested.
2. the trick is to restore only the installer. login to the installer and let it download the keyboard. you would then have a full working swype keyboard. however, this keyboard doesn't seem to be the latest one. it's slightly different from what I had on my Desire HD just before i changed over to the S3 (the button to toggle language inputs is on 'z' and not at the bottom row). the version numbers are different as well.
hope the above helps

When it first shows up its tiny, but while the keyboard is open flip it to landscape, then back to portrait and it will be better! Better in that it will be full width of screen, but still a bit shorter than other keyboards. But I still prefer it over others.

Kinda nice they finally implemented themes, but they need more variety which i'm sure will come in versions to come. Definitely agree with the vibration fix!

Very neat. Thanks for the update.

Anyone else experiencing problems with getting the installer for Swype? I am already registered on their website and I have been for nearly 2 years. I haven't used Swype in a while since I switched to Swift Key. I want to try Swype again but they are not sending me the email with the installer link. Has anyone else ran into this issue?

I am having the same issues. Didn't recognize my password, so I did the reset. Changed it, and it still will not let me in. I think they are having some issues.

Yeah same thing happened to me I had to re register my email.so try re registering
-(hit thanks if I helped :])-

I think they were just having some major issues with their servers.
I tried to create a new account with my same e-mail. Told me an account already existed, so I went to log-in instead, and now it lets me sign in finally.
Went back to the installer on my phone, and now I can sign in and download beta 1.3.
