Swype no longer works :( - T-Mobile LG G2x

It's the preinstalled version.
I rooted on the 21st, and it's been running fine.
Nothing new was installed recently.
I have the beta login details from when I used my Nexus One. I will try to "freeze" via Titanium, and re-install via beta/download.
I'll report back if it works or doesn't.

Weird. Mine is still working. I hope it doesn't stop!
I'm rooted as well.

I froze it, but it was still visible.
Since it's a system app, I didn't wanna remove/uninstall/delete it.
So I renamed the "Swype.apk" file to "Swype.apk.bak". That removed it from settings, etc.
I downloaded the installer.
I get this error.
So I reverted everything back to how they were.
Swype still not working.
I may have to check their forums.

No resolution yet. And there doesn't seem to be any active involvement over there.
I just may remove it entirely, and attempt a Titanium backup from my Nexus One installation.
Like many of you, I simply hate 'pecking at the keyboard' to send a message
I've come to rely on Swype so much, this is painful for my thumb.

I agree. Swype is the only way to type.

Hard reset?

NOPE!
Didn't work.
OKAY I FEEL STUPID!
This line "ro.product.model" in "build.prop" = "LG-P999".
I decided to change that so something COOOL, like OrganizedFellows G2x.
I guess that broke Swype.
After I changed it back to LG-P999, Swype works.
dumb, huh?
Well, at least I know.

Didn't seem to have it installed. Did a search in root explorer and found swype.bfz. Renamed it to swype.apk and installed it. Runs! Any ideas about the .bfz extension?
Hope this may help someone else who is looking for it on their phone.

Found these threads earlier today. For some reason, the first word I write in Swype only shows the last letter on this phone, was hoping the Beta may work, as I never had an issue with it on my Nexus One.

I will report back to let everyone know how it goes...

It works good, just have to make sure it's installed on the device not the mem card.
Thank you .

Doesn't work on my Tilt
Every time I try to run HTC Action on my AT&T Tilt, it brings up an error saying:
'The file 'HTCActionScreen' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.'
I've done reinstalls a few times, with soft resets, etc. I just cannot get it to work.
My co-worker has the same phone and his works fine.
Any ideas?
Changing Font
For some reason the font for the HTC action isn't the same as the one in the picture. How can I change the font?
Thx This Is a Greatifull App Thx For Share

Can someone tell me what notification bar icon is...

... the one that shows after an app has been installed from the market succesfully. I believe stock shows it as a down arrow on top of a couple of lines. Some ROMs show the Android Market symbol. Myn's latest twoPOINTtwo has this big, plain oversized checkmark and I'm trying to replace it... but I cannot find out which one this is for the life of me...
Thanks for your help.

I don't remember the exact name of it, but its in the Vending.apk not the framework. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

Ahh.... I see. Thanks for that - I should be able to find it now. I've been sifting through the framework and resources APKs forever!
If you are tlaking about the download arrow

, that is in framework-res.apk
Not the actual downloading arrow (or series of them) but the icon that remains there after the download has been completed and the app is installed.
I just found it, thanks to the above help. It's called "stat_sys_install_complete.png" and was located in "system\app\Vending\res\drawable-hdpi". I would never have looked there.
Related question - in cases like this, is there an easy way to just replace this single icon? Like maybe with root explorer or does it require a full out replacement in the APK package and complete reflash? I really don't feel like reflashing the entire ROM just for a few changes like this and would rather just make a mental note to repackage future ROMs.
Ninjamorph should do it

[APP][2.1+]- ScreenZooM -

This is my first app for android
The main purpose of this application is to help people with low vision.
WHAT IS DOING?
When you can't see something from screen, shake the phone and then you can pinch to zoom, wherever you are
STOCK or CUSTOM?
STOCK is for stock roms and CUSTOM is for custom roms like cyanogen7 or MIUI.
Sometimes CUSTOM MODE works on STOCK ROMS.
!!!- ATENTION :
UNFORTUNATELY, YOU NEED TO ROOT YOUR PHONE IN ORDER TO USE THIS APP

thank you... i'll try it
Sorry ,I did not notice your ROOT caution.
My set is not rooted .Hopefully it will work for others.

not working on sgs2...
what am i doing wrong..?
I cant get it to work on Galaxy note(n7000).
Doesn't work on Razr
Just rooted my razr on 6.12.173 and this doesn't seem to work.
Told SU to grant access first time I shook the phone, and now, after a shake, it pops the little message up that su granted access, waits a couple seconds, then launches a "this page cannot be displayed" (as in a webpage you can't go to) that takes up the top half of the screen. Bottom half is black.
Running on a stock ROM, with root.
-- UPDATE --
Some more info from the web browser. From what I can tell, you're trying to save a PNG, and then open it with the browser to zoom it. The error I'm getting is:
The web page at: file:///data/data/com.vrx.screenzoom/tmpshot.png could not be loaded as:
The requested file was not found. /data/data/com.vrx.screenzoom/tmpshot.png (No such file or directory).
I think it should be just '/data' rather than '/data/data', but I tried saving a png to both '/data/com.vrx.screenzoom/tmpshot.png' AND '/data/data/com.vrx.screenzoom/tmpshot.png' and still got the "file not found" error.
Please let me know if I can help anymore with troubleshooting as I'd love to see this app work! Also, the shake has to be pretty violent for it to pick up; perhaps some other launch gesture as an option also?

Problem, spam app alert!

So guys here are some screen shots of some notifications I keep getting daily. It takes me to a website offering my a free ipad.
Hoping you may recognize this and be able to help me locate the culprit.
Mant thanks in advance

Amazing, now I just received a new one.....
1.Have a look if you have unchecked Google AdMobs in Playstore Settings
2. Try "Airblocker" from the Playstore
These steps worked for me in a similar case.
Thanks will try, but why is this even happening?
The app located Sky Map Pro as the culprit so uninstalled that, so hope it works.
Never experienced this with the iPhone. Shame on Android for letting such apps through the approval process!
If we compare Play to iTunes Store - there is no approval process here ( there is, but compared to iOS it's like there is none ). Everyone can publish their apps of every kind - no restriction, no "you can't do this or that" from Google.
You have to be careful what you install. There is always the option to report an app - and then Google will take a loot at it, so i'd suggest you do that.
Hey, you guys are so lucky! Fee iPads!
I had this a while ago with a game I downloaded online (an iPhone port, not a paid app) and it kept happening out of nowhere!
Use a "task manager" or "task killer" app from the market and close any open apps one by one until you see the notification disappear. That way you'll find out which app is poisoning your phone, and you delete it straight away.
Problem solved and make sure you let people in this thread know, so if they have the same app causing this issue, then they can delete it immediately.
Hope that helps
Sent from my White Galaxy Note, using Tapatalk 2 Beta 5
thats how i solved it
i had that problem.
very simple ...
when u press on the notification its using the spam app to open the link.
after u press the notification
press long press on the home menu, u will see the last used apps. check the last one on the list.
thats the Spam one ! ! !
I had these before and always after a reboot....
Then I went to Play store and installed Airpush Detector. Check and Uninstalled those ad-wares.
It's gone now!
Thanks for all the great replies guys. I really appreciate it, cheers

Stop update to Android 12.

Is there a way to stop the auto update to 12? I had to send mine to Nokia to get downgraded back to 11 cause for one thing, it killed the dual SIM capability. Then, i just hate the UI and refuse to pay for apps to fix the look. I have looked everywhere and all the guides say to go to a certain place and disable them, but that doesnt exist in Android ONE i guess. I dont really want to try a custom ROM cause im sure it wont support dual SIM either.
Find the OTA update app and do a adb edit to disable it. Package Disabler has a variant for model other than Samsung, that might work too.
On Samsung's they look like this, ws.dm is the prime offender...

Where do you find this?
I use this. For non-Samsung devices navigate towards the bottom of that page. You can contact them by email with a question too.

I would not recommend this sites app to anyone. I tried to buy it last night and 24hrs later, I still have no app to download. I found your post from a Google search. Email went unanswered.

Give them a business day or two... jeeesze. Do a charge back on the card if you must. I've been using them for over 3 years, no worries, as I am now.
