Upgrading to CM nightly- question about swype

I'm debating upgrading to the newest nightly of cyanogenmod however I really do not want to let go of my stock swype. I'm not interested in using an alternate app like shapewriter either....
Has anyone successfully loaded the stock apk onto their CM build for this phone? If so, please explain how!
Thanks!

I suggest you sign up for the Swype beta and wait patiently.

Theres no way to salvage the apk before i flash the new rom i suppose...?

Well, if you need a froyo rom with Swype you should download Eugene's Froyo (newbuild.zip) and flash it via ROM Manager. Otherwise, no, there's no way to salvage it.

thanks for the quick reply, i'm going to look into it.

Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749273 . Some of the people here don't like Swype and are totally against installing it on other ROMs but it is doable.

Thanks for the link, i'm in the process of going through it.
I don't see why anyone would not want swype at least as an option on a custom rom, especially since the stock version runs beautifully. Swype is really smooth and accurate, so much so that I wouldn't mind not having a hardware keyboard!

swype is an acquired taste lol some like it some dont but once you use it and get used to it its the best at what it does! sign up for the beta and they should send you a swype installer pretty quickly only real problem is that it isnt themed like the one that comes with the slide
go to 4shared and search for swype there should be a themed version that doesnt get old
and on another note if you sign up and register on swype then search for a swype installer and use that you should be able to use swype that way since it will see you are registered to use it and what not!

Try this:

Check out the new Froyo builds with Swype.

ask this in the thread of the rom itself. is more likely to have a answer there

I can not ask there, because i need at least 10 posts to write something in a development forum.
thanks for reply

That's already 2 ;-)

Well if you won't go to the dev, the dev goes to you. I have removed Kies and all Kies related stuff because it was bogging down on the memory.
Sorry =\

hey Kezra, another user, that can't post in DEV forum
is there some way you could give us Swype apk? you removed this keyboard in newest ROM, which is bad for me since I have to use Swype beta and it's not as accurate as normal swype.

You can find all those apps you are asking for here:

Hi, I'm on stock DXKJ5 and want to try this custom ROM out. I know that it's based on EUR ROM. Can I flash the custom ROM right away or should I first flash the stock EUR ROM?

Hi, just another note on this Rom:
I had trouble with my titanium backup, as it tried to restore swipe settings ave as mentioned before swipe is not included. Our ifs not a bug, but be aware that this might cause trouble.

Swype, TW calculator and TW calendar
Hi, I downloaded the .apks of the swype, twcalculator and twcalendar. Of course it wouldn't just install like other normal apps, so I tried to move it directly into the system/app folder.
I just won't move (or copy)! Says that some error ocurred and that it's impossible to move.
The phone has Kezra V3 rom and V6 super charger. It's rooted alright.
I miss swype... and MOST OF ALL, I miss XT9! It seems it just went away with this Version 3. Downloaded Go Keyboard but didn't really liked. The stock gingerbread keyboard with swype and full functioning XT9 is far better.
I'm considering "dowgrading" it to V2 again, I found a working download link somewhere in the V3 thread for it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

unzip the rom, place all the apps that you want in "system", "app", rezip the rom and flash it again without wipping data in cwm, that should solve your problem

Thanks a lot mate. I'm going to give it a try.
I tried to do this after the rom was flashed, with scrip manager. Just copy the app directly into the /system/app folder, however it didn't work.
I'll post my experiences back.
By the way, do you have any insight on the XT9 issue? It was a must have for touchscreen keyboards... I could live without swype, but XT9 was suppose to work with samsung keyboard... I'm confused with that.

You might want to try the ICS Keyboard... It's much better. IMHO.

Dude, thanks a lot! I tried this ICS keyboard and liked it. It's not as intelligent as the stock gingerbread keyboard used to be but it goes quite close.
I tested the SlideIT app and LOVED IT. Replaced everything else, and now KP V3 works fine for me
I can't thank xda dev enought!

Root, install titanium backup, then remove whatever you don't want.

Exactly what you want.

perfect. gonnna try that. thank you

Or run NostalgiaTurboSlim script (in my sig). It removes all nonessential apps.

Or just disable the AT&T apps and forget about rooting and ROMs. It's built-in to ICS.

Disable not the same as un-install. That will remove them from the apps list, and un install any updates.

I'm using wanam's rom and it is great. It has a couple of the ATT and Samsung apps but gets rid of most of the offenders.

I'd love to do this, but being a novice at best at using Android, how do I go about removing/uninstalling apps that were baked in to the ROM?

[Q] GAPPS 4.2 question

This is a very stupid question but can you flash gapps 4.2 on a touchwiz based rom? I'm running Blackjelly rom and would like to flash either 4.1.2 or 4.2 apps, is that possible or will they keep crashing?

I highly doubt it. I don't think gapps will work on touchwiz.

Another question
I have another question about G apps. Instead of having to flash the G-apps, is it alright to restore the app only from a backup app like Titanium backup from an older ics rom. Or will this cause any kind of problem?

I'm pretty sure it would work but it'll have duplicates in the system folder so you'll have to manually delete that

I am using several 4.2 apps (gmail, keyboard, Playstore, camera) on TW ICS and they work just fine. I usually use the stock camera because as far as I can find, 4.2 camera does not allow external storage. I'm guessing this is connected to Nexus 4 not having external storage. Maybe mods will be made as 4.2 becomes available for other devices.

Could you please post the link to the forum where you got the gapps from?

They are in different posts in Themes and Apps section. You'll have to search.

Alright I'll just try a couple

I would do a backup then try it out

[Q] Stock, bloat removed, not themed rom?

Hello, I am looking for a good Rom to flash to my Epic 4G before I give it to a friend of mine. She isn't a geek like me, and doesn't want JB or ICS or anything fancy, she just wants a mostly-stock Epic 4G. I talked it over, and we decided upon a stock rom with bloatware removed (so it would run faster and not have Facebook, Allshare, etc preinstalled).
Do you guys have any suggestions for a basic stock, touchwiz, non-themed rom with bloatware removed?
thanks!

The People's ROM is only lightly themed with bloat removed into a separate file. CleanGB has a more stock theme but you have to edit the build.prop to keep from gettingthe update notifications.
