Hey guys, I just found out that Swype for Note works like a charm on GS III and supports multiple languages (unlike the BETA).
//edit link editted NEW BETA has language support now: https://beta.swype.com/android/get/
Just install it and in swype options download your prefered language.
DO NOT update Swype (also available in that menu).
I think it updates to the BETA and youll lose the support for other languages!
Have fun!
//edit:
Lol, indeed guys.
Ive been searching for a Swype that would work on the GS3 and figured out that the GNote one worked.
And today Swype releases a new Beta that also includes languages and no more error on installing... lol...
Editted the OP.
download from swype from https://beta.swype.com/android/get/
Is this the latest Swype beta?

New Swype out today on the installer!
Those with problems opening Swype once installed. Unpack the Swype.apk goto /lib and copy the lib file to /system/lib to overwrite the old lib file...

Sorry man, but afaik it is not allowed to post links to swype-installer on XDA..
For those who want the real swype on the s3, go to
http://beta.swype.com/android/
and follow steps there.. the actual swype beta works perfect and languages can be loaded from the options menu!
Confirmed, just downloaded the new version including dutch language... works like a charm!
Awesome post!Thanks for sharing.

Hi all. I have Koni Elite and want Swype. I had originally registered for Swype beta but when I load it if crashes. Anyone know how to get swype on this rom??? Thanks!!
Like you get it on any other rom...
let me know if I screwed this up, had to work it out of my Elite.
Mod Edit: Do not post swype installers, as they are considered warez on xda
oh now i get what you are saying. to install the swype beta on a rom that already has swype installed first use root explorer (or adb) to delete swype.apk in /system/app/. then delete swypelibcore.so from /system/lib/. reboot and install the beta from the installer. hope this helps.
Thank you alaman, that worked for me. I have been a long time lurker in this forum and have appreicated all the help everyone has given.
Thanks! I used Super Manager. I had the lib file even though I didn't have the apk. Now beta downloaded and works.
dupe post. sorry.

Anyone knows how to add Brazilian Portuguese Swype to Barebones 1.3? I Have tried a zip from my original stock rom and one from adlxmod thread (JORLA something)... at the moment i'm using switfkey, but i like swype!
Uninstall all aplications of swype (swype and swype installer) and install the beta full.
Works for me. (Only PT-PT)

I'm using swiftkey right now, not so fast, but it's a very good alternative. Or you can try Swype Beta (pt-PT), juste use the remove-swype*.zip from the link on my last post (on recovery), then download the beta.
I got a working pt-br swype from a brazilian defy branded by Claro.
If you still need it, I can make an update.zip and upload it to my server.
Check a small video of my Defy running JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_155-002_DEBLUR with PT-BR Swype.

How do I to install a app.zip like this??
Im using a swype beta right now in portuguese-PT.

First, you need to remove your current swype beta and swype installer.
Then go into custom recovery and install using "Install zip from sdcard" option.
God Bless =)
Finally it works ^^

For me work in CM7 beta 6
Hi there.
In order to get Swype working on CyanogenMod you have to edit /system/build.prop file and make the following changes:
Code:
# WORKING with swype !!!
ro.product.name=GT-I9000
ro.product.device=GT-I9000
ro.product.board=GT-I9000
For the reference, in the current release of CyanogenMod7 for galaxys those values are
Code:
# NOT working with swype !!!
ro.product.name=soju
ro.product.device=galaxysmtd
ro.product.board=aries
Obvious, you need to get original Swype files from an original Samsung ROM and install both Swype.apk and libSwypeCore.so
The changes above works for sure with Swype JVP (tested).
P.S.
CyanogenMod maintainers could consider adjusting the build.prop of the future CyanogenMod builds to keep swype compatible.
Otherwise my changes will remain just a quick hack.
very good
what about sam keyboard!!
Will Swype have a haptical feedback?

@Iluminatus23: At each keypress in swype I get a haptical feedback (a little vibrate).

Beta3 is working out of the box, just install it via installer. You need an beta-account of course!
What the heck is beta 3? I'm talking about original swype, the one you can find on every samsung phone, licensed only for this phone.
Don't know about this beta 3, but previous betas from swype lacked support for some languages. Those languages support was found only in some versions of Samsung ROMs (localized).
Will it work on MIUI roms?
How to install libSwypeCore.so and Swype.apk ?
Thanx
@loylik: It should work if your build.prop is consistent with the samsung roms. Take a look at a swype cwm package and you will see where it gets installed in the /system folder.

Thanks a lot. It works =) Just copy Swype.apk to /app and lib file to /lib and it work pretty good.
anyone tried updating dere swype keyboard???
I've recently update to the newest version of the Swype Beta, it's pretty straight forward.
Just delete the one you have now, and follow the installation instructions on their website and you'll have no problems.

EDIT- i cheked the version it isnt 3 beta :O ?????
This Swype is that comes with stock ROMS, This has been extracted from VillainROM 3 for SGS2, this flashable ZIP have the necesary files that Swype can work with any ROM, this also modify four props from build.prop file.
Flash this at your own responsability, and if you do it please report back.
If you have problems to boot after flash, you can restore your original build.prop with adb, if you don't know what is this, maybe you have to reconsider to flash it
NOTE: Disable signature verification before flash.
CHANGES: V0.2 Fixed to work with CM9, tested by my self.

You need to delete Swype.apk from /system/app folder and move /system/build.prop.swype file to /system/build.prop
You can do it with ADB or Root Explorer.

I have made some little changes, now works fine with CM9, you only have to download v0.2 and flash it again.
Thanks! Just installed this on XXLP2 and where version 0.1 didn't work, version 0.2 works perfectly
works with miui 2.1.13 - but i cant set it as the default keyboard. it always switches to the standard keyboard after restart. do you have any idea to fix it? i think it was the v1 but im not sure.
thank you.

This version is better for some languages other than English.
For example, the new version of Swype includes all letters from the Turkish alphabet (an additional 6 letters cramped on a small screen!), whereas this version simply uses the English QWERTY layout and predicts what I'm typing in Turkish. Therefore, this version is a lot more error-free and efficient when I'm typing in Turkish.

Hi
First of all, really nice job! Just like you and other guys around I do fancy the older version of swype.
I was wondering, though, if this stock swype was able to be ported only because of the original files extracted from VR3. Could it be possible to get, for instance, the swype version found in ICS XWLP2 to work with CM9 as well? Could you point out something like the procedure you followed for doing so? (or do it for us )
Thanks in advance
Good joob, its works on my d4rom cm9. Can you add please romanian language?
does this have pt-pt language?
