Swype Beta now live!

Swype Beta for Android to release tomorrow
So, on the same day that I FINALLY get an official beta invite for the Swype beta, I read on Twitter that they are going to be releasing the public beta tomorrow. Here is the link:
http://techcrunch.com/2010/06/15/want-swype-yes-you-do-get-it-tomorrow-for-android-phones/
I wonder if it's the same beta that was just released a couple of days back? What does everyone think?

Probably the same but I hope it's better

ya but will this be a timed beta again?

Long press the input field, select input method from the context method, switch to Android Keyboard, then do this again and switch back to Swype.

Not yet. <(

Did you uninstall both the old installer and the program? Then download the new installer and apk? I recall that this process should be followed for the new version to work.

Just installed it, I think Swype is one of the best things on Android. Installed without any problems.

i registered late last night...got my invite about 10 minutes ago.
back up and running with swype. one of my favorite apps (and most useful) on my nexus.

Looks like it's up now. For anyone that doesn't have the beta already, now is the time to get it!

Can someone tell me if double tapping in portrait mode works to bring up the spell check box in this version?

I didnt have the old installer/apk as i just upgraded to a nexus one from a G1. however, I reinstalled it and it works now. Hard to decide whether I like swype or HTC IME better. I guess time will tell. If only HTC IME had multi touch, I'd be so happy!!

Re: Swype Beta for Android to release tomorrow
Double tapping doesn't work for me..i just installed the official beta and it's the same as the one I installed a couple of days back.

djeezes, even when using the keyboard to tap instead of swype it's better than the standard keyboard app. very nice.

is the site down or what?? wtf?

given that they're slashdotted but have opened it up, could use mod clarification on posting links..

epic fail. i think their servers are overloaded so they resetted everything. my account seems to be gone. can't register for a new acct.
Sorry, this is more fail than the Apple iPhone Pre-Order and yet they don't want us posting the APK.. sigh.

Has anyone got a new update?

after I reporting the bug in Market I got emailed from market customer..they say there is a new update for xoom, here is what they said to me :
Hi,

the bug I report is my market change its language to current country I live, and there is no way to change it back to english language.. I can't buy app from market too..

The marketplace updates just happen. But I couldn't tell you if I recieved one or not. Not sure which version I have at the moment. What version are you on?

i see, thanks for replying..
I didn't notice the update too, but now market show the right language..

Mine is v. 1.0.17.
That seems like such an insignificant update. There's MANY more complaints about not being able to rate and comment. They should get that fixed.

mine 1.0.17 too.. hmm..nice..

Ok. Whatever they did broke the market for me. I get a force close for My Apps every time I try to download and install an app.

Official BBC News APK Wanted

BBC just released their official News app for Android, but it's not available for US in the Market.
Can someone [probably in the UK] share the APK???

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24917729/bbcnews.apk

Is there a way to get this to work in the USA?

Yeah mine just says "Application not installed" on my HD2 running gingerbread.
Edit: With market enabler I was able to change my country ID to a UK one and eventually the market website recognized my phone as elligible. I was able to install it from my PC just now.
Double edit: The live stream portion of the app still doesn't work - it says "not available in your area" but the text news stories work.

They just released it? I've had this app for the past 6 months...I live in Canada, not sure if that matters?

I'd never thought of using Market Enabler for stuff like this. Very nice. Thanks for the tip.
I ended up changing it to O2, number 23410. Installed without a hitch (or reboot).

I was pretty surprised a refresh of my browser did the trick - pretty neat indeed. That's the same code I used as well .

Not sure why the apk in the Dropbox link (633kb) didn't work, but here's the copy from my phone (591kb):
http://www.mediafire.com/?whi03mz89j5htua

Thanks, it works
Edit: Dammit, Live news and other videos doesn't work

No scrolling widget

Same here, but yours worked for me on my Atrix and Xoom Much appreciated.
Now, BBC just needs to give some real Honeycomb love.

It works. First time mine phone says "Application not installed" and second time the application was installed without any problems. Link to the livestream is missing unfortunately . Thanks for the APK File. Looks like a great app. I would consider about moving to the UK. lol.

As others have said, no live stream, but it works well otherwise.

any ideas how to make it landscape?

Hi guys,
There is a new BBC News app for tablets. Can someone from UK download it and post it here?

Anybody more?!
Thanks!

Whatsapp support answered me:

Hi Jesús,
The submission for 1.6 came from a "tainted" build machine and was not linked correctly. This makes us fail to download media. We regret the error and have sent an update to Microsoft.

Now all work fine again.
New on 1.7:
• Able to read and change group icon
• Improved scrolling behavior

Marketplace is version 1.7.0.0 but after the update in the app. we find the version 1.6.2...They did still confusion?
EDIT:The application works well..... mine was just a clarification on the version

what's taking them so long to bring it up to the same level as the iphone version? I'm glad that they're updating it slowly, but it's still kind of lame

It doesn't work on the Samsung S6 Edge. Tinder gets stuck on the finding people near you page. It works with Bumble, though!

It should be good, you can double check it is working correctly by going to Google Maps for example, Tinder sometimes has problems finding people in some places (maybe server related) or you may have changed your location too often, so give Tinder some time and it should work (if there are actually any people in that place).
Thanks!

Hi, the app looks really good but I tried it with Tinder and didn't work, even downgrading to many previous versions

Hey, really trying to reproduce this but it works fine for me on old or the newest Tinder version on Android 4.4.4
Which Android version are you using?
Maybe give Tinder some time to get your new location? If you check Google Maps and see your location has changed then the app works correctly and Tinder may just be slow sometimes.
Thanks!

Hi, so I actually gave to Tinder some time and it worked with the 4.4.4 version, update released on December 2015 (pretty old) and it worked.
You say that even more recent versions work for you? I really tried them all, sometimes they worded but too many no, till going back to this 4.4.4.

So I played around with the newest Tinder version and it did seem to be stuck on finding people and it didn't update to my new location, but then I tried to log out and log back in and it worked then. Not quite sure what happens, maybe it just needs more time, either way - logging out and logging back in seems to be the quickest way to make it update your location and show you people.

Actuallly that's the only thing I didn't try :good:
Just confused about one thing, everytime I was trying an older version, I was obviously doing an unistall and a clean install, that means a log off and log on... isn't the same?
I'll try that too anyways, if it won't be handy enough I'll keep this superold but still perfectly working version

That's right, but it seems the older versions work without the log out and log in thing right away.

Devices?

Change your GPS location using this simple app. Free, no ads.
Will also keep working if you reboot your phone. To turn it off just click on the Stop button.
This tool is useful for apps like Tinder where you can change your location and explore new places.
You will need to enable mock locations on your phone from Developer options for the app to work. To enable Developer options go to Settings - About and tap Build number 7 times.
Works in Android 6 as well.

Can anyone provide a method that still works for the most recent Tinder versions? I'm using an old version with the Fake GPS app from Lexa, because the newer version somehow figure out where I actually am, desire using the same process.
