Swype in CM7? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I tried going to swypes website and entering the beta and download swype through the swype downloader app but when i go to enable it it just keeps FC'ing. I also tried pushing swype.apk to /system/app but also get constant FC's. Anyone know how to get swype working on CM7? Thanks.

You have to freeze the original swype that came with the phone by using titanium backup. once you do that then you can install the swype beta

I did that and I even tried rm'ing the original stock swype but keeps FC'ing. Tried a fix permissions and wiped caches still no good.

I had this same thing happening just a couple of days ago. Once I got beta 3 installed.. it just kept FCing. I had to remove it, do the wipes of cache, reinstall... it then stopped. I uninstalled it via titanimumbackup

keep the installer on there.. but remove the beta via titanium backup.. I froze, then hit delete.. remove it. Rebooted into cwm, did the wipes. Then went into the installer app.. and reloaded it.

market error

okay I broke my market app. I have been trying to get it to work again. Basically I broke it trying to get a previous version of market back on it so I can put a theme on it.
So I get an error, The application market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Market will load. You can search. But if you click on anything it closes.
Here i what I have done.
Restored a back up from titanium.
used the app doctor.
unistalling and reinstalling the market.
Any one have any suggestions??
Wipe all cache in recovery and mount system
Find the update zip of your rom or the vending.apk you plan on pushing and use adb to push it to /system/app
This is the only way I know how to fix it, it helps alot when you try to modify certain apps because the cache effs everything up sometimes

Word. Haven't tried that yet. Give it a shot later. I know I can flash but even with backups I'm not looking forward to a flash.

Hey thanks a bunch!! it worked like a charm. and really, you do have to wipe that cache. That was what was buggering me up every time. Not only do I have my market working again, but I have my themed market back. WOOT!

swype beta?

i would like to install the latest version of swype using my swype beta account. i installed the swype installer and removed (and backed up just incase) these:
/system/app/Swype.apk
/system/app/Swype.odex
/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
/data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod
but the installer still thinks theres a version of swype installed so it still fails. what else could there be?
I used to have that problem, try rebooting and make sure the com.swipe is also removed.

I had in stall swipe & got the same issue that it failed & need to be reinstalled. I removed it & didn't reinstall the app. I notice there were the keyboard selection under setting, locale & text. In the input selection i was able to select swipe & it worked for me. Dont know if this will help those that are using swipe.
Thank for the showing how to delete file
any idea on how to go about getting the swype official back? i think i like it better than beta 3.0
well, if you backed up the files rather than deleting them, then just place them where they where.
I did, but there are several swype files in many different folders
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk
well theres only a folder and three files, two files if your on a deodexed rom.
I remember 5 files, but I have no idea where they go!
I assume if I just reinstall a full version of whichever room I choose that I'll have swype official again? Or if I flash back to stock?

i used System app remover, backed up the original the app does it if you want too, then i just installed Swype 3.0
Followed this to install 3.25 beta on Mikey's S7 ROM... worked like charm.
Thanks!

[Q] need suggestions on fixing FC's

for some reason the last 3 apps i've installed all FC on me. at least 2 were from the market. prior to this i've installed a ton of apps from the market and TB.
open maps, movies, yelp.
i managed to install yelp after i uninstalled movies. not sure why that mattered. i actually got the FC message but then it went away. movies still didn't install correctly. i've completely removed open maps.
i've heard fixing permissions in cwr can work but i've screwed up my phone on a prior rom doing that so i'm really weary of using it. also, why would i need to fix permissions if it's a new install?
Update: fixing permissions did nothing. Does clearing dalvik do anything?

Clear cache and dalvik and try again. If you still have problems, then reflash your ROM on top of your existing ROM without wiping anything. If you still have problems after doing this, then backup your apps/app data with Titanium and then do a full wipe (system, data, cache; everything). Then reinstall your ROM, then install Titanium and restore your apps (do not restore system settings; only restore apps and app data).

Nope. I just flashed a different ROM which didn't have these issues.

Updating Twidroyd

The phone comes pre installed with twidroyd but its an old version. Has anyone been succesful in updating it? Mines just force closes.
My other question is since we have root now is it possible to delete pre installed apps? Im pretty sure a fresh install of twidroyd would fix the problem.
I loaded tweet deck....

I was having the same problem after updating to 6.0.3, then cleared the app data via Twidroid "Application info", and haven't had any FC's since.
Root, download stock app remover, and reinstall
thanks guys!
I ended up just rooting, removing it, and then downloading the actual Twitter client myself.
is working for me

I have used swype for a long time and have replaced it many times.
You have to make sure that you have removed ALL "references" of swype from your phone or it will not install. Including any backups you may have in Titanium Backup.
What I always do is delete my Titanium Backup backups. Then in Titanium Backup settings> more > Clean up the Dalvik Cache, I clean the Dalvik Cache. After that I reboot my phone. Then I install swype (I send myself a new email invite from the swype beta website) without any issues. It works EVERY TIME.
I think stock Swype needs a library in /system/lib, something like libSwypeCore.3.25.91.32328.so (maybe wrong with the version). See if you have it or what the version is.
I only pushed the swype.apk into the system apps, nothing else. How do I get the library?

Stock rom has that lib I believe for stock swype u also need swype tips apk or something like that

no camera, no power button but at least I got miui lol
Erik and Antonx are both right. From stock KJ6 debloated by raver, you need to pull from /system/lib libSwypeCore.3.25.91.32328.so and push it to the same directory on yur phone. Then pull swype.apk and SwypeTip-release.apk in /system/app and push them tothe same directory. Do not try to install them by selecting them or whatnot as it will fail.
