I got it also on Legendary 2.2. Aside from the annoying EL30 msg's, recently got msg that "newer version of swype is available... please upgrade"
Might be a good time to try another ROM...

Yeah basically.. and when I try to swype the swype a blue line outlines the keyboard and it doesn't input the "swyped" word

Try deleting swype and downloading the newest from Swype's site.

On swypes website, it says if it came preinstalled on your phone, the beta may not work. Try force closing and restarting swype from the running applications menu under settings and delete the data it stored. Restart and see if that fixes it

Totally ignored that when the new beta came out. Renamed Swype.apk to Swype.bak and downloaded and installed it. Haven't tried it with the newest one yet.

I redownloaded after updating to CM9 and it works just fine for me. I dont think you could mess it up too bad though.

New market sucks!!!

I have tried renaming the marketupdate.apk in system/app but it still updates itself. I have tried freezing said apk with titanium backup and yet it still updates itself. I have a version of the market that I like but installing it everyday is getting old. How can I successfully keep it from updating on its own?? I'm on CM7.1 btw. Thanks.
Did you freeze the market or market updater?

I froze the Market Updater using Titanium Backup.
A quick search found me this

Hope this helps...
Froze that marketupdater and the damn thing still updates. I then deleted marketupdater and it still updated to the new crap market! What the hell?

I hate it. I can search for an app and then try to install it and it just sits there forever. But as soon as I install the older version and search for the same app and install it, the app downloads and installs right away. Sigh.

Did you try clearing data and cache from the market app?

Yep, multiple times. I have installed the old version a few times now. I must have jacked with the wrong file or something cuz now the new version FCs when I try to download somthing and the old version closes as soon as I click the Market icon. LOL. I need to reinstall my ROM anyway. Fresh start.
It definitely decreased the visibility for my app. In that way I don't like it, but as a user, I got used to it.

You probably have a modded one installed and won't let you update. Delete the current one from system/app, then try redonwloading again.

Should be able to pull the .apk of the old one from any of your old ROMs and then freeze it with ROM Toolbox, TiBa, Terminal, etc... And then it can't update - though then it might not be usable since it's frozen At least you can pretend haha.

Swype

Go to the main Swype website, sign up for the beta, and download it. Easy peasy

Nice find! Looks like they fixed the over powered vibration too!

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.

You guys think swype is better that SwiftKey? I like the original Samsung, but auto correct don't work after 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.
