I am running Starburst 1.95, I have updated the market with the leaked apk at least 5 times and it ALWAYS goes back to 3.1.5, why is it not sticking? I have done EVERYTHING. I even deleted the market with root explorer and put the new apk in myself and it works but after a while ill check and its back to 3.1.5! Any ideas?

Have you changed the permissions on the APK after pushing it? Or are you installing via CWM?

Searched and didn't see this posted in the ET4G forums anywhere. Found this in the Evo3D forums and it works fine on our phones. I take no credit! Just sharing my find....

awesome!!!!! In case anyone is too anxious to get it going, here are the install instructions:
1. Make sure the app is named Vending.apk.
2 Using root explorer or advice, move it to /system/app/ and replace the previous version, which should also be named vending apk. I recommend backing up the older versionusing titanium backup before replacing it.
3. Set the permissions to rw-r--r--
4. Reboot
its not updating even if i remove the one that is originally there and putting the new one in.... i still have 3.1.5
EDIT: its case sensitive! so name it to lower case "v" and reboot, that made mine work!
Had to revert back to normal market. When i used this, I couldn't buy any apps

Hello everyone, I just got my wife the new SGS2 Epic 4G Touch, and I pushed the new Beta of Swype to it, and it won't work at all. I was wondering if someone could possibly provide me with the APK file for the stock version of it so that I can install that back onto her phone to make things right again. Thanks (and appropriate button hit) to anybody who can toss that file my way.
Here u go --> MOD EDIT: Link removed

Did you uninstall the app first using titaniumbackup or similar? That's what I have to do whenever flash new rom. Sometimes I need to even reboot after the uninstall, and before the install of new.
Nice! Great to have this!
If you install swype officially as outlined on the swype website you can get the updates OTA. Just make sure any previous version is removed beforehand.
http://beta.swype.com/android/create/
Posting links to Swype is not allowed. If you need it, sign up for the beta program.
Amazingly, there are no search results for my issue, that I can find.
Anytime I go to use Swype, it pops up with a message that says it will not work until I update it. It's referring to the system update, however I'm running RandomRom EI22. I've also gotten the annoying system update message, even after freezing it in Terminal and deleting the file in Titanium. I've even let it try and update, let it fail, go into recovery and wipe cache. My Swype just won't work.
Any ideas?
Here is the instruction from RandomKing:
1. First, using a file explorer delete the following files:
- /system/app/Swype.apk
- /system/lib/libswypecorexxxxx.so [the x's stand in for the exact number]
2. Next, head here to download the installer.
3. The rest is pretty self explanatory.

Make sure you register to get access.
PS: Just got message from swype that their system is down....guess they are getting flooded with requests.
Remove Swype with root explorer and go to Swype's website on download their newest beta.
Edit: I see Tempt beat me to it.

Nevermind. Working now. Good luck.
Does anyone know if the swipe broke on stock?
Edit: Tested a stock EL30 Epic and swype still does work. Wonder why it broke on custom roms.
Most custom roms broke because these roms were running with beta swypes. Stock had older production version, I assume.
Only worked for a couple of days
Installed the new beta and it worked for 2 days. Now all the beta says is "please try again" every time I try and Skype. It is like before I installed the beta. If anyone can help that would be great.
installed new swype - but it force closes
I am facing the same issue but on my AT&T SGS2 running ICS'd out ROM.. All it says is new update available. please update to continue. I tried all steps to uninstall the current one (using root explorer) and install fresh from beta.swype.com but to no avail.. the new swype force closes.. Any solutions?
Edit:
FIX:
This is what worked for me::
1. Uninstall the newly installed swype beta (which caused force closes) via manage applications.
2. Delete (or move or rename) the following file: /data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@[email protected]
3. Restart your phone and go to beta.swype.com and repeat the instructions to install swype beta.
Worked for me =)

I had the same issue. I ended up just completely removing Swype through the phone and reinstalling it. It's working flawlessly now for days.
The only downside is losing your personal dictionary. Not much of a big deal really.

You have to delete its .lib file also not just the apk. And before you delete it id also go into the app manager in settings and delete the data and cache and what not from swype

Also if you use titanium backup to uninstall it it will get that file

Hey Guys,
I wanted to know if it was possible to put the stock keyboard from the Motorola Photon 4G on the Epic 4G Touch?
Here's the .apk: Motorola Photon 4G Stock Keyboard
Any help would be appreciated? BTW, my phone is rooted and everytime I try to install, it rejects it.
if you have root explorer or even es file exp. you can just put the apk into the data/app folder and then you should be able to select it in the language/keyboard settings if not reboot and then try. hope this helps you
EDIT: tried for you didn't work, maybe changing build.prop to Motorola Photon 4g and installing the apk might work
You need to push the app to system/apps and set its permissions. In adfition it probably needs a lib file from a motorola photon rom. The lib wasnt in the zip...
Venum right. I tried it in the system folder to and it didnt work there either. So it is probably missing something

Hey everyone,
I dont know who agrees with me but the stock mms apk is so ugly and boring. ive been trying to update my mms apk to something more attractive and ive tried handcent go sms and all the 3rd party apps. not interested. i found something that i tried but in the process of following the directions something went wrong... and i couldnt recieve texts (i sent myself 20 texts saying things like testing test 123 hello hi etc)
(Now i have the official ICS running RE-CALKED for ff18)
this is what i did:
1. Downloaded Zip
2. copied and pasted it to sd card
3. rebooted into recovery mod
4. wiped cache data and delvik cache
5. Installed zip file from sd card
6.Restarted Phone.
This screwed up my phone...
and then i tried downloading the ' THEMED MMS.APK and going into root explorer and replacing the stock mms.apk with the themed one in the correct spot. restarted it after and even went into recovery mode and fixed permissions. NOTHING WORKED. everytime this happens that i try to go and experiment i always seem to screw it up.
what am i doing wrong? maybe the file is not compatible with my epic 4g touch ff18 ics? i dont know what to do and im sick and tired of the ugly stock mms.apk
