I hope someone can help. I am using the new SWYPE BETA since the beta signup is open again. It seems to work for a few days and then all of a sudden I can not SWYPE ANYMORE. This is what SWYPE does when it is EXPIRED but there is no message that it is expired. I then have to UNINSTALL SWYPE and then use the SWYPE INSTALLER to download and install again. WHY is this and how do I resolve?
Thanks....

custom kernel? that happened to me w/ some of them. u dont have to re-install it, just change the input method to something else, then go back to swype. usually u would have to do this on a fresh reboot when using some of the kernels out there....

Does anyone know when will the swype beta open up again? Thanks
New features:
swype.com/tips/advanced-tips/
How to install (very easy):
beta.swype.com/android/create/welcome/
beta.swype.com/android/welcome/detailed/
Note:
* Read the instructions carefully from the two links above.
* 3.26 is NEWER than 3.8 or 3.5, etc.
* You need to uninstall current Swype first which also means that you have to be rooted.

Correct. You need to uninstall the previous version first. It is mentioned in one of the links that gave.
However I just renamed the stock /system/app/Swype.apk (which is about 10.3 MB) to Swype.apk.bak to keep a backup.
follow up question...
do you need to be rooted to rename the swype. apk???

Yes. You need to be rooted to rename that. And I guess you have to be rooted to uninstall the stock one too.
It's WONDERFUL!
Been using it the past few days.
Been loving every second of it.
Also feels more stable than the last version.
And now it's so easy to switch from different languages.
Not to mention the spanish one also has the enie(the retarded N) so it's way easier to write now.
No more long-pressing a lot of buttons now.
Swype beta 3.26 beta is better than the previous version except the theme.

Very true. I have seen 3.26 in a black theme also. You can search about it. But I just thought of living with this one for sometime.
I just applied the new Roboto font which is used in ICS. It is beautiful. With the new Swype and Roboto font, typing and reading has become more pleasant than ever.
Read this to know the simple font replacing instructions.

New theme is cooler, and thanks for this. It's much more stable now.
This is the same as the one released a week ago, right?

I think so. I have been reading about it at several sites since weekend.
What's so different about it? (I had a great many problems trying to get it to work so don't want to uniinstall it to find very few differences..!)

There are loads of articles on the net by now about the new features. Can you share the problems you faced?

It was mainly removing the previous version I had installed. (via Darky's ROM) Once I'd removed it there were a few issues with downloading the .apk from the Swype servers but it worked eventually. I've uninstalled and installed the new version already (far too keen to get the brightest, shiniest newest things!!) Seems very nice. I also have the Roboto font and it DOES make it nice and easy to read.
Couple of days ago, my Swype prompted me that there is an update available. I applied and it downloaded and installed itself smoothly. No issues so far. I had heard of this auto-update feature. Now experienced it too.
If you don't know how to reduce so big Swype weight, you should read my simple tutorial on my blog: en.marurban.pl
I can't in this moment publicize any ready-made packages because I am waiting for reply from Swype inc.

Hi I want to add the keybaord layout for my native language (Ga) can you help
Mod Edit - sorry guys, but Swype as an independent app is a no-no, XDA was told to not allow these threads. Download has been remove.
Hey Guys!
Here comes the Swype for our Note with ICS.
You can install it as a normal app.
It is not necessary to push this as a system app.
If you have installed older versions of Swype, so please uninstall it first!
Q. OMG my old version of Swype is a system app and what should I do now? Can I uninstall it anyway?
A. Come on, root your phone, make a backup of the app with Titanium Backup and uninstall it e.g. with Titanium Backup!
Q. What languages are included?
A. In the stock app there are only two first! (English and Spanish)
Q. And whats with other languages?
A. Just download and install your language in the options of Swype. Still its possible! (pls look @ the pics)
Q. Oh I've changed my dpi and now?
A. I'm currently on 200dpi and Swype works and looks fine here!
Q. Ooops wait, I'm still on Gingerbread. I have now fallen into a panic?
A. Yes (I have not tried it with Gingerbread, so I'll need your feedback, ThX)
edit:
O.K. Thank you so much for the fast feedback. It works also on Gingerbread!
Time ago, I install it, running correctly!
THX
Hi Chris, been using that version for a couple of weeks now on your version 1.7 (Gingerbread) without any problems
I thank you both.
...hope there is not a thread already with this version?!
I have found nothing.
Greets
does not work on my notes with gingerbread, tips?
thanx alot...
fiat black please...
Thanks for the post. I had been looking for the correct version to fit my note. One was too thin, then too small and this one is just right. Thanks again.
Thanks Chris, works fine with no issues so far...
Sent from my GT-N7000
many thanks
It is going well on my Gingerbread...
Does not work on Gingerbread - shows waiting cursor (revolving ring) when trying to load additional languages and does get to the list of languages.
Any suggest?

Thank you...the version that came installed on the phone was irritating and the tablet version is just too small.

O.K. it seems there are server issues.
I'll upload my Titanium Backup files for my Swype ver. with all languages.
Hope it works.
ETA: 10min.
O.K. sorry for dp!
1. download and unzip the package with Swype incl. all languages
2. copy the 3 files to your TitaniumBackup folder on sdcard (internal or external)
3. open TB and find Swype to restore
4. restore Swype (app+data)
Let me know if it works!
Works great. Thanks OP.
Is it allowed to freely distribute the Swype APKs? I know they got upset about it in the past.
Server is working again!
Pls try it again to download your language.
I recommend to download all languages.
Pls make a Titanium Backup of Swype after the install of the languages.
If you try another roms you'll have a backup with your languages.

Maybe but we all pay fpr Swype when we buy a Note.
Is it possible to make it "One Hand" as Samsung keyboard?
Hi,
Is there also swipe for the nexus one on Ics? Where can I download the apk?
Whatever Swype you get from the Beta enrollment will work perfectly fine on ICS. I had it running on texasice and now on medroidmod.
So - get Swype installer from the beta email and run as usual.
If you're not enrolled in the Beta I can't help you - just saying that Swype works just fine with ICS.
For the record - I am on Swype v 3.26.92D and MeDroidMod 1.4.3 HWA

Hi
Guys, i installed ics rom (TeamNyx RC5) but it doesn't have swype keyboard.
Since 3 days i've been trying to download swype from swype's homepage but it always gives error message (it's a swype's problem as i could read at swype users forum, and no way to fix it).
So i need a way to get swype keyboard with portuguese language (PT).
If anybody knows a diferent way to get swype, please post the link.
Thank you
downloading swype beta requires you to have a swype beta account. then grab the swype installer and from that install swype. and yes, that's working.
also any search engine will easily find you plenty of download links for swype apk, unofficial sources of course
providing swype.apk here would is not allowed by the TOS

Yes, and i have a swype account. I have downloaded the installer. It gives error. As i told in my previous post, its a "parse" error due to something weird in swype's download page or apk.
In fact, i've searched but couldnt find swype with PT (portuguese / portuguese) language. And even so, 99,9% of the links, send me to swype's homepage (wich has the error on downloading)
Anyway, if there is a problem with this thread, you can delete it.
there's no swype with portuguese as language files are downloaded after install

I can confirm that this is true, the additional languages are downloaded after swype is installed
