[Q] Viper Rom and swype - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Installed Viper Rom and so far so good. Can anyone tell me how to get swype back?
Thanks

Look in the files, he made a folder with the files he deleted. I reinstalled swype from that folder.

go to Astro sdcard> viper rom> removed apps.
it should be in there, you can also check out the thread for the apk.

Its in the folder if you want the old version, but it would be in your interest to delete all traces of Swype and get the beta from Swype.com. its a lot smoother and doesn't have some of the bugs that came with the stock Swype

You can also use the vc script. Search the ROM thread on how to use it

Loosing the built in Swype was a really good thing for me. I installed beta and I never realized how much better it would be than the built in app.

Yeah, I installed my Swype that came with my phone. Beta version is much better...I remember the beta that the e4gt Swype is built off of, so many bugs. The one that bugged me most was when you hit I and it doesn't space the next word.

Thanks all for the replys. Very helpful. I just want to know how you get a smiley face on beta swype?

I was wondering this too. I will install the swype beta and see how it goes. I actually tried to use the stock swype a few days ago and couldn't deal with that spacing issue. Maybe ill have a better experience.

Unfortunately Swype is only available if you were already included in the Beta release testers.

[Q] Swype for Gnex?

I am a part of the Swype Beta program and I also have the updater installed on my phone. When I go to the installer it says that my screen size isn't supported for swype. I am a little curious how people already have Swype?

It's in the themes and apps section.
Swype will be releasing an official beta later this month.

I've tried the swype.apk from the post in Applications and themes (can't post links since they've got a C&D letter from swype). It works, but i couldnt manage to download additional languages. I checked the swype forums, and they say that download of language packs doesnt work for ICS yet.
There is a workaround where you use titanium backup to get the language files you want. You have to be rooted for this to work though.

[Q] Juggernaut v4.1 - How can I put Swype Back?

I just bought 3 of these SGS 2's from T-Mobile the other day, and really like the Juggernaut ROM the best so far.
After installing it on my wifes phone she wants Swype back, but I cannot get it to work. I copied the apk from the backup, and installed it which worked fine, but it force closes anytime I try and use it.
Any help is appreciated.
Go to the Swype website and join the beta program. They will email you an installer app you use to install Swype and update it when a new beta version is released.
The beta sucks... Do you know how to get the original back?

Wait you serious?
The official sucks lol. The layout of the keyboard is horrible.
The beta is 100 times better
Original swype download links are posted here.
Good Luck..
I had the same question when I flashed Juggernaut V4.1 and this thread helped me.
I signed up for the swype beta on thier website and installed it very easily to my device. It works as good if not better than the one that orginally came on this device.
The only 2 differences that I even notice are the swype trace color ( anyone know how to change this color?) and the layout of the numbers when you cange the keyboard over to symbols ( which are more like a keyboard and less like a phone dialer).
Does anyone know how to change those two features?
The only way would be the beta. The new Dragon speech engine is great and really accurate.

+1 for the beta.

android file host doesn't seem to be down...all servers up
Just wait 5 seconds on the download link. It's a problem with their mirror check.
i haven't tried it yet, but i read that it does work with 4.0+. here's a nice article i found: http://thedroidguy.com/2012/11/android-4-2-keyboard-and-clock-available-for-android-4-1-and-4-0/
Just 1 question how is this keyboard different from Swype? Never used it but many people seem to like it. So just curious.

it is just like swype, just looks like the normal default android keyboard. i do like how the word pops up while you are swyping it. seemed buggy on literom, would hang a lot when backspacing
That was neat. It's nice to see Google incorporate stuff like this straight into android. Likewise to the new quick toggles. However, I ran into a couple freezes that were bad enough to ruin the experience. Possibly because I'm still running ics.
Yeah its probably why. Made for JB.
some more 4.2 gapps may be coming (new clock app) soon!

This looks to be the same port I posted about here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940677&page=31 (which admittedly belonged here and not there.) I love this keyboard and have it running on my ICS tablet just fine. I have tried this on two different Captivate Glides running CM10 beta 1, UCALJ3 by dbrannon79 and the UCALG leak with stock kernel as well as the lite kernel and on all of them it will run for a minute then freeze.
Is this running stably for anyone? I'd love to figure out why this won't work.
probably due to the samsung integration in the os ... u'll notice that it doesnt freeze in every app.... it freezes in stock sms app ... but also in handscent :s ... makes it kinda useless in ICS for me ....
Safe to flash over CM10 beta..?

I am having few issues with this keyboard sometimes..
Suddenly after few strokes the keyboard vanishes.. Do not get any error message..
Tapping near the blinking cursor also does not work.. I need to wait atleast 20-30 seconds for the keyboard to re-appear..
Not able to use Swype or Swype Beta Also.. Keyboard is crashing..
After downloading the zip and moving it to the phone, what exactly needs to be done? I figured it would just be an .apk file to install rather there are other folders as well.. Thank you!
perfect
This works perfectly on my Samsung galaxy s4 M919v and galaxy s2 t989D. Thanks alot dude . Don't forget the wipe dalvik cache!!!!!

Well first off you need to have a rooted device.
Step 2 u need to go into your recovery mode which is cmw or tdmb.
Then like any other file you are going to install it but not as an apk but as a zip file. So go to the location where you have the zip file downloaded in the install menu then just flash it. If you have any problems message me.
Great!
Thank you dude for the sharing!

Swype. Has anyone problem using it?

Since the upgrade to 4.2 I am having problems using Swype. It gets blocked when I switch it from default keyboard to swype one. I want to use it because swype support the languages that i need.
Has anyone the same problems and it's there a fix?
Thanks

I had to restore from a nandroid backup using Titanium backup. Every time I unlock the device I get a force close message or 2, but Swype functions normally thereafter. Tried to install using the install app provided for the beta program and nothing was available to install. I don't think they have caught up to 4.2 quite yet.

I wish i could port swype dictionary to the default 4.2 android keyboard....
When i try to reinstall it, the app installer doesn't let me choose a version also.
I believe that's a known issue. Hopefully Swype releases a fix for it soon.

I've been going back and forth between 4.2 keyboard and Swype.
I'm using an old themed version (no longer available) from djdarkknight.
you can try this version if you want.

Swype kept freezing my jelly bean rom so i switched to SwiftKey Flow beta and i'd argue that it's better than swype, stock was an absolute nightmare.. Just not as much detail put into it as swype and SwiftKey.

I just recently went from stock android 4.1 on my Galaxy Nexus to CyanogenMod 10 with android 4.2.1. I was using Swiftkey Flow before and now and the only difference I had was the color that shows up when you swype letters, it barely shows up on screen now.
Swype bumped the beta to 1.4 and seems to work quite well with 4.2.1. Adding to the custom dictionary is now functional too.

Between the pain-in-the-arse multistep install process and the glitches in the Swype beta, I've switched over to the stock 4.2 keyboard. I also tried Swiftkey 3. Uninstalled Swype a couple of months back and never regretted it. It's just too hard to setup and it refuses to work without a lot of tweaking.

Swype had a lot of problems with 4.2.1 roms, but they have already released new version 3 days ago and it works fine for me now.just check their web.
