I'm not paying for another app. Already purchased UltraKeyboard. It's ok.. but really annoying at times too..
I really wish I had never used Swype.. it's like giving a piece of candy to a kid and telling them they are not allowed to eat it!

Yea, mine quit also.
Any thoughts? I'm pretty much going crazy over here.
I would gladly pay in upwards of 10 to 15 bucks for this one, drives me nuts that they won't just give it to us...not even for some $$.

Yea im thinkinh its got something to do with the whole sold it to oem's. Kinda rediculous and very apple–ish if i must say so.

Should we start working on breaking the time limit on the beta app?

Do a search in the droid incredible forums. There's working swype apks there. Using it right now. Maybe it will work on your phone.

I installed Swype on an Android HTC HD2 just yesterday and I began the download from the private mail sent from them (I had registered here http://beta.swype.com ) and it actually WORKS fine.

why are swype taking so long to get out of beta?
slide it works great..almost no bugs.give it a shot

Swype v2.4.44.10912 Confirmed working on Incredible

This thread confirmed working Swype 2.4.44.10912 for HTC Incredible. Be sure you download "SWYPO v2.4.44 - WVGA English" version.
Came across other versions (eg 10814) that did not work.
Perform an "upgrade" of the package and dictionary is saved.
Hope this makes it easier for you guys to find a working version!

Can't link to it due to copyright reasons.
I can also confirm this version works after 1.61 expired today.

Almost every person on this forum that likes Swype has said that they would buy it if it was available. Closing a Beta and making APKs that expire only leave people with limited choices. Either find a copy that works, or choose another product. If you make someone have to buy another product, why would they switch back to your product once its ready, especially if you have to pay for that one as well?
That being said, Ultra Keyboard seems awesome. I will probably buy it after my trial is up unless I find something about it I don't like. Thank you for the suggestion.

I don't agree with the way swype does the beta. They are not the holy grail especially since google just got blind type.
"Results may vary."
Doesn't work for me on Froyo 2.2. Let's you tap but not swype. Says it's not configured for this device (using incredible).

just checked this out via the free trial, definitely doesnt seem like a bad alternative. i recommend trying it out if you, like me, cant find a working swype link.
I am trying ultra keyboard. It has more features than swype, but so far it seems less accurate. In other words, I make a lot more mistakes. It could be a matter of getting used to. Also, the keyboard is ugly compared to the red Swype version which was beautiful.
I'm in Swype beta, this is my current version. Although mine ends with 10912.t100
Not sure if that matters or means anything.

Anyone having issues with it, try out SlideIT - I have used them both and love the responsiveness and accuracy of SlideIT>Swype. I have no affiliation with it, just giving my sure to be met with harsh criticism opinion lol
I am not interested in the morality of possessing "swyped" software, or the argument thereof. I am also not interested in the substitutes-i have tried them and don't care for them. I am simply concerned with locating a functional version of swype

All these different versions of swype being canceled over and over again is really annoying
Nice! It's great to be swyping again. Confirmed working on my Incredible running Virtuous v3.0.1. It also looks a lot cleaner than the version 1.61.37.8128 of swype I was running previously which had "expired" yesterday.
Ultra is better than slide it. I would gladly pay for swype if they made it available on the market.
Ultra does have allot of features but not as accurate as swype.
nowandaway
The upgrade also works for me, using Skyraider vanilla 3.0 RC. I don't understand swype's strategy. Why don't they just put it on the market? I'd pay for it.

The problem is some of those apps are not free in the market. Like Newsroom is paid only. It could be replaced by pulse.

Thanx,you should get even better batery life with it because of few background processes removed.
If people like it I will update it when new Syndicate is released and theme more apps.
Oh if anyone have any good replacement apps for those 4 paid apps im gonna remove tonight let me know.
I will replace newsRoom with Google Reader.
No stock email??? Useless!!
No just kidding, that's pretty bomb, Samsung is making a version to compete with the itouch, props for making our phone a better copy of that I wonder if this is going to look like the stock ROM for that Android Wifi only device...
Cool I like it

i was kind of blown away by this rom. for the first time EVER, my bluetooth works perfectly, and wunderradio (which i use CONSTANTLY) almost never buffers any more. i was thrilled with bonsai, and had no intention of trying any others, but this may be the best one yet (for me).
Thanks for the great rom (and the free apps! )

I did say "Syndicate kanged" in this post,and I gave proper dues,main focus of this was theming and stock app replacement and removing few apks that in my opinion are not needed such as DrmUA and KeyboardSlideCount.
All the props go to Syndicate team,i would never try to take credit for something that ya created.
Thread closed due to warez in the rom. When you're ready to release a theme without warez in it, please PM me. Thank you.

Do it, I did. I promise you want regret it. I gave my D2 to my fiancée. I love my TB, with one exception, the battery. Other than that, I don't regret it. It does sorta suck to give up a hardware KB(which I never really cared for the D2's, the TP2's was my favorite) but it is still nice. I now have a hard time just looking at the screen on my old phone because it is so small. And if you're in a lte area, welllllll I can't say enough good things about LTE. It is the shiznit. Things like this forum load almost instantly.(not quite, but really close) I love my new phone, till about six months from now and I'll be ready for another upgrade, lol.

[SOLVED] Can I Copy Spare Parts from CM7 to Infused?

What kind of problems would I be looking at if I copied/installed the Spare Parts apk from CM7 over to the Infused v2.0.2 ROM? Would it work or would it seriously screw me up? I'm only interested in getting it because I have screen density set to 200 right now and some of my apps don't fit the entire screen. I've found fixes on a couple of the apps, but not all. I remember on my Aria there was an option I chose in spare parts and it forced everything to resize. I think it was the compatibility mode setting. I don't want to install CM7 just yet. Waiting on bluetooth support.
BTW, I did search first but didn't find the answer in any other forum. However, my search-fu is kinda weak. lol
Thanks for any help!

The market version has advertisements added. Really shady if you ask me, taking a free open source app, putting ads into it, and then throwing it up on the market.

I noticed a few months ago that a few guys had done that....added a feature or two...mostly ui changes...then called it their own and charged for it as well as offered a free/with ads version.
Seeing more and more of that

There And Back Again (my trip to the Nexus S from Inspire 4G)

Shame on me.
2 weeks ago I've seen on the Google's homepage "Nexus S a pure Google experience" I clicked and long story short I decided to buy (for $0 of course, the 'only for today' strategy got me..) a Nexus S... at first I was very very very Happy... Frontal camera, video calls with skype, google videos, Gingerbread, NETFLIX (!!!)...
I wasn't really thrilled about the size of the screen... sensibly smaller than the Inspire although the resolution was the same, and the colors... the nexus' screen's colors are kinda yellowish...
I was so happy about the new features though that I've ALMOST sold my Inspire! Then right before selling it my Nexus fully charged during the night dies in my pocket at 4 in the afternoon... A sign from god... I started noticing the abnormal battery consumption and I open my eyes..
Long story short... I m now selling my Nexus S and keeping my Inspire... Using the Inspire after 2 weeks feels like a million dollars.. but now I really miss google videos and netflix!
Does anybody know how to get them on Inspire?? Apparently neither of them are compatible.... BS i say...
Netflix works fine on the latest Gingerbread update for Inspire. I don't know about google videos.
netflix works fine..

So does video calls with Skype, just no FFC, and the GB update was rolled out a couple weeks ago. I know google videos won't work with rooted devices, but I don't know about the stock Inspire ROM
Hold on... why and how Google video is not allowed on rooted phones (i have stock rooted)??
Also the GB update isn't unstable still?
Tnx so much for the netflix app!

yea - no disagreement here.
And just realized I missed your question about the stability of the GB update - I hadn't heard anything about it being unstable. I'm currently running virtuous unity v 1.33 (GB 2.3.4), which is in Beta, and seems incredibly stable to me. There are other GB ROMs that have been out for a WHILE that are also incredibly stable. If you're already running stock rooted, then you have root and guessing you're s-off, why not flash a custom GB ROM?
Oh no i meant the OFFICIAL one... I tried various roms and the only one I feel confortable with on the Inspire is the stock with sense and stock radio... So when I heard about the official GB update I was very happy... instead it's full of major bugs.. shame.
I will wait till they fix the update and somebody cooks the original rom... I'm not really a Sense fan but it performs very well on their devices...

Yes I noticed... I was reading the 62 pages of your thread and you are a damn rock... they threw anything at you ... I'm at page 18, it's quite gripping, better than hbo series lol... XD
BTW I'm gonna download it and report my opinion... I'm hard to change ROM and get too far from the stock/ish ones and this seems what i was looking for..
Anyho... I will keep reading... If you need some customized graphic I'm a (decent) designer... LMK.
