A new swype beta was released a few days ago for the hero...(And every other android phone)
And I was wondering if anyone has came out with themes for it yet?
Where us it?

I don't see why it should matter if a link is posted in this particular case - in order to use Swype, you had to sign up for the beta months ago. It's my understanding (I have been wrong once or twice. ) that the ESN of the phone is linked to the email address used when you signed up.
I use it and have re-installed every time it's been updated. Every time, I have to provide my email address & password during the install process.

Correct, at least about having to sign in (idk what exactly swype uses to verify your beta eligibility) regardless though, you need to have a beta account in order to use it.
So even if I did PM you guys the swype.apk it wouldn't work without my account sign-in info.. Not gonna happen
If you want a "3rd party" one that's not official. Look else where or something because it'll never get posted here.
As for the topic at hand, The only way you'd get themes for it on XDA is from a MetaMorph. Haven't seen any threads on that tho. Try searching all the forums

I had "lost" my invitation email and needed to reinstall Swype at one point, so I searched around in their forums. I read a lot of references to the ESN being linked, so that's where I got my information.
Side note about the ESN: Apparently, the beta allows you to "upgrade" your phone once (change ESNs). Then if you do it again, you have to contact them directly to allow a third phone to use the beta. I found it interesting.
Even after impaler's warning, there were 3 requests for the apk, all of which have been deleted. In order to save you guys from yourselves (since requesting warez is against the rules), I will close this thread.

You guys might have heard of this, but you may have not. It's a keyboard app, sort of similar to the iPhone's keyboard, that learns your writing style from the words you frequently use when you text. If you guys want it, download it here. Enjoy!

We've been over this many times, brotha.
It's a great, great keyboard.
However, you're providing a link that isn't supposed to be out to non beta testers.
Read the license
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684621
There's the last SwiftKey thread. As was said by intx, you can't link to the download. It's a closed beta.
But, yes, it is a magnificent keyboard. I love the usage statistics. According to it, I've saved 403 keystrokes, making me 21% more efficient
Me = beta tester woohoo
Updated the op with a new link. Click on it now....

I signed up about two weeks ago and got my first e-mail two days ago. They just send out e-mails every time they make a significant update, I think. I'm pretty sure they just send it out to everyone on the list. You'll just have to wait a while, but it is definitely worth the wait. It's (nearly) the best keyboard I've ever used.
Beta is out, if its ok I will post.
Got my invite as well. So far looking good. Nice GUI plus response. I find it WAY faster than Trillian Beta, although some Skype and Video exchange might be good for next release
The end of the email reads:
"Also, please understand that the build is only for folks who have registered with us for the beta program and is not intended to be shared with any one. "
So now I ask you. Do you think its ok to post it?

That's cute, but why should someone have to Google something that someone's advertising. Obviously if you announce that something out its to garner interest, no? With that being the case, ways the harm in typing even a one sentence description? Seems pretty common sense.
And I just realized that the last two responses before that post could've been a simple description as well, but acting like someone doesn't know what Google is in an Android forum seems to take priority over posting something useful.
Anyways for anyone who doesn't know, it's a messenging client for multiple services. I love things like trillian on my pc so ill be waiting for this one
I'm on it now, it rules. I just pray that it doesn't become a permanent beta like the wm version

this is a pretty popular app, thats why I didnt bother getting into detail, and Trillian has been out for beta use for the public, not a fan , and im sure you will say that when you use it.

actually your thread was reported because (as it said in the subject) "cracked version" obviously thats a red flag for warez. anyhow as u mentioned the other threads on the subject were questionable. the only reason i let the threads remain was because they were all just links to beta trial versions. which imo wasnt so much warez. unfortunately when i brought the subject of swype up to the senior mods, i was told that the corp. that develops the app has sent XDA a order to stop posting their app. at that point the mods infomed me that i needed to remove all the sype threads. so thats what ive done. if ive missed one please let me know. anyhow thanks and have a good night

He also said that he'd be handing out suspensions for repeat offenses, just so everyone knows.
Here's XDA's official announcement.
Well, that sucks. I'm glad I have my copy. I don't know why Swype just doesn't put their app on the market. I'd a paid for it were there a trial version I could have tried. Personally, I love Swype and I don't know how I managed without it. The only thing I missed about my Blackberry when I switched was the typing. With Swype, my BB is a distant memory now.
Edit: Is Swype under contract with a certain carrier/manufacturer?

I think they have OEM contracts with most of the major manufacturers because we're seeing more and more handsets preloaded with Swype. They could still make bank off a Market version, though...
So...
Does this mean we have to either be in the beta or know someone in the beta to get a copy of swype now? That makes me sad.....

I agree. Hopefully they will put it on the market once those contracts expire so everyone can get it and have full support on it.
they really should just go market. i have a few different copies saved, dont know how many of them are expired or not. as long as i have one working copy, i'm good. once those expire though...... blah
I think it is crappy that if you want swype you have to purchase a phone you do not want to get it... shame on swype
That does stink. But those are the breaks. I guess it's back to keyboards that I can actually pay for.
Owned! I bet a lot of people really feel stupid right about now....

Man, that really ticks me off because I was really getting into themeing swype. My thread had over 4000 views in 3 days.....and tons of downloads. Oh well, at least I still have my Carbon Fiber versions to use.........I guess I'll have to move on to themeing something else.
P.S. Do not start posting asking me to PM you a link, or they will delete this thread too.
Hopefully one day they offer a paid version. I put Swype on my phone a while ago (before I switched to CM6... so it was probably 2 months ago?) and I liked it a lot. I'd gladly pay $2-3 for it or something like that.

Every time I see this guy (gqstatus0685) comment on anything, it's usually some BS. I was going to say something, but all that would happen was the thread would get cluttered with a bunch of nonsense.
Yea, we got owned. Owned so badly, that Swype had to come here and beg the forum to stop posting their app (that isn't supposed to be on our phones) on here. Sure........the devs/members from here, the ones who figured out how to put it on phones that weren't supposed to have it, are the ones that got "owned". Edit: Not to mention, like TheBiles said, we still HAVE Swype.
smh
No I get annoyed at the fact that people on XDA storm in on threads claiming OP's are breaking forum etiquette and rules and get mad when people call them out on their threads. It's just funny that's all.
So much for the idiot who said it was shareware to try and cloud the fact that it was warez.
Just FYI: when my last Swype .apk expired, I DL'd the SlideIT beta and played with it for a few days before I snagged a new Swype. While I definitely prefer Swype, SlideIT was definitely serviceable and way better than the stock keyboard.
So if you can't get your hands on Swype, give it a try. It's in the Marketplace.

i never had the patience to get used to swype. i feel like i'm missing out. maybe i'll find it and try again.
If you post metamorph themes to swype then i believe those are fine, your just providing images to replace in it, not the actual APK
So right now were trying to make sure that the future of HTC's phones dont get knocked out because of the encrypted bootloader they are trying to force upon us so im just writing this to you all to make sure that the XDA members know whats going on and I was wondering if you all can help us out, these are the details:
right now i'm sure your aware of what is going on in HTC's facebook page and i wanted to know if you
would read up on what is going on and show that everyone is wanting this to be unlocked.
This first link is the petition that were all signing to show to HTC that we are wanting this:
http://www.groubal.com/htc-bootloade...nd/#signatures
We want more to know about it so i was reaching out to all of you right now.
this second link is the conversation that a member who started this had with a sprint rep on facebook, it shows that sprint is not the one responsible for the locked bootloader and that they are not trying to push for it.
https://www.facebook.com/sprint/posts/156658601067283
This last link is just what xda is thinking of it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1094914
we know that they made a statement but we want to make sure that they know that we all want this to be unlocked
So pass this along and let everyone know what is happening! thanks for your help!

No surprise with future HTC phones getting locked and/or encrypted BLs. Pressure from carriers are finally getting to HTC.

Seems like sprint isn't pushing this on them though, based on what i've seen with this info it seems its HTC's part here that they want to protect their Sense UI most likely. but you can help and try to change the future because that's not something i want and i'm sure no one in xda wants this either

It appears that you cut the links from another post wherein the tag get's abbreviated (the ellipsis in the middle) but the actual href is valid. You should always right click the link and "copy address" (or however it appears in your browser) instead of selecting the text directly.

G'day all,
I've got a Basis Band (www.mybasis.com), and they've just released an Android App for it. Except that it's more like an Samsung App, as they've locked it to three Samsung phones and two Samsung tablets. And locked it to the US store. (This is in line with their communications since they started the company, to be fair - the truth and Basis intersect only by accident, it seems.)
I was hoping someone who meets the criteria - Samsung Galaxy SIV, Samsung Galaxy SIII, Samsung Galaxy SII, Samsung Note II or Samsung Note and access to the US Play Store - could grab it (as I said, it's free) and flick the .apk on.
I'd be grateful, perhaps not eternally, but at least for a few days
Hello,
More info:
apk:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mybasis.android.basis
If someone from USA please could extract it in apk format?? It's free.
In above post there are instructions in order to download it using market helper, but doesn't work for me.

Thanks
to be honest I'm not sure how I downloaded it, but I was probably on a proxy at the time and just clicked through using my browser
heads up- they block non-US IPs and also proxies on the basis website, that's why you get the 500 error
So um, get a friend to sign you up as well; if they have a US IP.
There is a way to get around it on your phone, however I've not been able to access the website ever.
What I've been doing is;
connect to a proxy wifi hotspot, data disabled by juicedefender (might be superfluous?)
use Market Enabler to fake the provider
- if you've failed to connect before, wipe the app data from system -> apps -> basis -> clear data, cache; try again
So ... if you've downloaded it, could you put it up somewhere so we can grab it? Thanks.

Thanks Ronald! I got the e-mail and I have a Motorola Droid Razr (original not Maxx) and it installed, allowed me to pair to my phone, and login with my userid and password successfully. Then it attempted to sync and failed on the transfer the first go-around, so I manually told it to sync (press the big button the right side of the B1 and then confirm to sync since it was already paired) and that worked fine. So, it looks like it's good to go between my B1 and Razr.
to the guys that pm'd me...check your emails. hope it works for yall!
