dont know if this been posted but Anyone that took part in the Swype open beta back in April can now use the updated version of swype
http://www.androidcentral.com/swype-beta-receives-update
im sure someone going to leak it.

Just downloaded it. I love this keyboard!

Cool can't wait for someone to leak it. Can't wait until i can pay for it in the market actually but the a leak is enough too hold me over.

It really needs directional arrows. The EVO doesn't have a trackball for precise navigating through text fields, or the iPhones magnifying glass.

swype from the bottom left key one key to the right for arrows

That link doesn't work I get an error on my phone saying can't parse file. I went into astro and deleted all the types I saw. I installed the program too. Any ideas or another working link?

try downloading it again, you may have gotten a bad copy

It's zipped.. download to pc, unzip and then push over to sd card.

Thanks that worked. Yes. I was dying without Swype.

BTW is there an app for typing via morse code. I used to have it on my iPhone. I know its off topic but I figured I'd ask real quick.

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?

They are saying that this one is not going to time out according to another source. I guess we will find out more details tomorrow.

LOL. I got that beta invite this morning as well. Awesome.

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.

Swype?

About 6 days sgo swype stopped working. I can still type but not swype. It said my trial had expired. I had side loaded it from an apk i found here on xda. Does anyone know of a way to get swype working again? I would gladly pay for it but its not in the app store yet.
Thanks

yea untill they open it again

I had swype since the first beta came out. Then updated in september with the new beta. And in the last 5 days or so it kicked me out. I flashed several new roms and on each one i try to reinstall swype and it says the id of my phone does not match the one registered at swype.com. Anybody know of a fix?

You're getting these messages running the swype installer, or the swype apk?
If you haven't gotten the email for the swype release to download the installer, you should be able to access it from their webpage if you have a login.

Google
Just Google Swype Download. It's "warez." But google will hook you up.

There are still pleanty of ways to get Swype, but asking for it on here out in the open on this site is not a very good idea anymore.

Im getting the message running the swype installer. I download the .apk file from the website straight to my phone. Then after I enter email and password in the installer it gives me the message- this phone does not match the id used at registration.

request a new email from swype, they will send you the newest installer and you can then install swype. I'm officially in the beta and have to do this from time to time.

Much appreciated.

The latest beta of Swype SUCKS! Stupid pop-up constantly of "This word was replaced with this word, if you don't want this hilight the word and press Swype button to delete" OVER and OVER again. It was actually slower to type than the actual keyboard. I hope they do something about this.

[MOD] Google Now in Sense ROMs

Hey everyone.
First, I can't take credit for any of this. User mcmb03 is the one who found the thread and asked about it in the Q&A section. I went ahead and tested it out, and was able to get Google Now working on CleanROM 4.0SE, albeit not without its problems. (These problems are affecting all users, not just Sense users.)
Known issues
-Voice Search is broken
-"Show more cards" may cause a Force Close if there are no other cards to load. If you've done some searching, and Google Now has learned, for example, your favourite sports teams and there are actually more cards to load than what are on the initial page, it WILL load more cards.
- and possibly some other things we haven't noticed yet
To get it working, go here and follow the instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28226043&postcount=1
Then, in the same thread, jump to page 15 and follow the instructions in the second post down, #142 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28234189&postcount=142)
Happy Nowing!
EDIT: After testing for an hour or so, it seems like absolutely everything is working now except for Voice Search. Of course, there could be other problems we just haven't discovered yet.

so... most of it is broken? QUICK LETS ADD THIS TO EVERY ROM NOW!!!

Then complain about the broken stuff to the dev!

Thank you

Turns out I was wrong about the automatic card displays. I was under the assumption that a traffic notification would pop up without any user interaction, but you've actually gotta pull up Google Now, and when you've got an upcoming meeting, the top card will show you your meeting info and a traffic report.

lol Red5, of all the mods of all the xda forums I've partaken in, you're by far the spunkiest.
And I wouldn't say most of it's broken. The Voice Search, which is obviously a huge part of it, is the most broken part. It doesn't work at all. The "Show More Cards" link at the bottom causes a crash. Maybe this is because I have no more cards waiting to be viewed, I'm not sure.
I do get automatic cards showing up with a traffic report when I've got an upcoming meeting. I also did a search for "Toronto Blue Jays," and above the web results, I got a Google Now card recapping the most recent game (the Royals kicked our a$$!) And now that I've searched for the Blue Jays a couple times, it'll be interesting to see if Now is really learning my preferred sports teams, and the cards automatically show up when there's a new ballgame.

You don't get a FC when you click "Show More Cards" at the bottom? If that's the case, did you do anything different from the instructions I posted in my OP?

You.mean the more tab at the bottom..the news,location..etc etc??...yes it doesnt fc on.me.

Nope, that's different. That's the "more" tab for search results. I mean when you open Google Now (from the app drawer, not from the widget), scroll to the bottom of your cards, and click "Show More Cards."
And actually... now that I've been using Now for an hour or so, I clicked the "Show More Cards" and it works now! It shows additional cards that may be useful to me, such as transit routes, the upcoming Jays game (so it did learn one of my "favourite" sports teams.)
So, as far as I can tell, absolutely everything is working except Voice Search. It really is getting more awesome to use as it learns things about me.

I hate to ask this because i'm sure your playing around with it at the moment. But any chance you could upload the Velvet.apk from the original post? (or will the second one work, it wont let me install). I'm trying to download it and wont get past 3.0
EDIT: Never Mind i got it to download, but i cant install it. It just says Install failed. Should i follow both posts to the "T", as in follow all the instructions from the first post, then follow all the instructions from the second post? Thanks in advanced for help.

Yep, that should be all there is to it. Do you have "Unknown Sources" allowed in your Development Settings? Cuz you might need that enabled.

push to /system/app/ and set permissions to rw-r-r

So just to make sure, I don't actually have to install the app? Just download, rename it to "GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk" (rename/delete old one as well), copy it to /system/app/ set permissions, then reboot?

Installed through instructions in second link from op, but get a fc when I open the app, also YouTube fcs for some reason

[MOD] Spotify tablet mode

Good evening!
If you're reading this, then you for sure know what Spotify is. We all love listening to music and, ugh, that's the synonym of Spotify!
Unfortunately, this work could be used for two fully opposite reasons, one of which is against the XDA rules, so I had no other choice but to close this thread (and remove links). I hope you understand me and sorry for the inconvenience.
Feel free to read the history below. It was a fun ride!
Time ago, the app landed on our lovely Android platform for both tablets and phones and honestly who wasn't excited?
Soon after, forced shuffle mode and limited number of skips were also introduced and I agree that there must be a reason to purchase Premium after all. Luckily, this restriction was not enabled on tablets, but a problem that appears is that far from all tablets are detected as ones - mainly the "smaller" ones. This [bug/miss-code] activates the restriction on your tablet, and as a fix was needed from either side, here was my solution.
This mod was created for all those "small tablets" that are incorrectly recognized so that you can use Spotify the way it was meant to be used.
ViRb3 said:
Regarding Facebook log in issue:
The signature/private hash (or not) of this app was not matching the original one Spotify had registered on Facebook. Absolutely understandable since this was a modified version.
As suggested by Romain12345 (thank you!), can you log in with your Facebook credentials instead of clicking on the "Log in with Facebook" button.

MEGA is never down, it only needs the app for android if you want to download from phone. That's the reason I personally won't mirror.
About installing, you need to have "Unknown sources" enabled in your Security settings. Then just open the APK and install it as normal. If you still can't figure it out check YouTube for thousands of tutorials.

So please If you give me your email, I'll send the last apk version of spotify compatible with gingerbread to you.
