I have asked this question in the eyecandy ice cream sandwich thread but no one has said anything. evertime i try to load swype from the beta invite email it goes all the way until i hit to 'fetching swype beta download' then you pic 'swype beta' then is says "parse error, there is a problem parsing the package".
i have even loaded up sense roms and any rom i flash it always says the same thing. every time i flash a rom i run a "wipe sensation" program thengo thru the usual data wipe, cache wipe, them flash rom, then go back and wipe dalvic cache and fix permissions. same combo i have been doing for a year or so.
does anyone have any insight to this problem? I really miss not having swype.

It's not just you man. I've been trying this for days. I'm on an HTC sensation running elegancias sense 4. I have no idea what's up with it. Not having swype sucks
Did you try pushing it to system/app?
have not tried it on your ROM, but on the MIUI v4, this worked for me.
Its a flashable swype.

I was getting this error with other apks when my memory card was corrupt. Try a different memory card maybe?
This was happening for me a few days ago. Then resolved itself, however it has started again. It's not only you. A lot of people are reporting it on their forums.

Hi I am running ordroid rom and replying to this post using swipe. No problems here. Just enable it in settings. I even choose the color of my swipe. Works perfectly just like with stock. But yes, you do have to enable it first for it to work. Not sure about other Roms but I can confirm ordroid 8.6.5 is running swipe perfectly. Hope this helps.

Does not work. Someone has a working version of the installation?
Flash version worked great! Thanks!
There's nothing wrong with your phone.
It seems they forgot to upload the file on their servers; at least this is what they're saying on their forum

Hopefully they'll have a fix soon..

Thanks so much for the flash zip. I kept trying to download via swype installer but no luck. Flashed this and set to default input in keyboard settings and it works beautifully! Gonna keep this one for backup.

Swype error - permission problem?
Guys/Gals,
I also found another error in alogcat, that could be the issue... it says "Not granting permission android.permissions.INSTALL_PACKAGE to package com.swype.android.installer (protectionlevel=3 flags=0xae44)"
Not sure, but it may be the issue. Anybody know how to allow that permission for this app?
*edit* tried copying the installer app to system/app , but that does not do anything. I am also getting the FileNotFound exception, but that could be a problem with Swype installer in ICS...
The flashable file worked like a charm, boom... I've been having the same issue with parsing errors. I guess the dummies from Swype have not fixed the problem yet.
Thanks rolltideburr
I am trying TouchPal now (free in google play)... so far quite good (better than SlideIT). If Swype wants to scare their beta users away, they are making a good effort of it.
Here is how I got Swype back:
If any of you have a NAND backup of before you lost Swype, you can pull out com.swype.android.input (or something very similar) from the backup and extract it. Once extracted and restored (app + data), wipe cache and dalvik and go enable it in Settings --> Language and Input. BAM!!! You got Swype!!

RC 1 can now be found HERE
Here is a mirror
How to get back to stock if you are having issues:
1. You will need to flash a sbf, you can find guides here for Windows and here for Linux.
2. Reboot recovery by pressing X on the keyboard and turning it on
3. Press the search key so a menu pops up
4. Navigate to wipe data with the volume keys. Select with the camera button.
5. Then navigate to reboot with the volume keys and select with the camera key.
You are back to stock and you can root!
The File Manager was included in this rom so you are able to install the Bootstrap application so you can restore a back up or flash a different rom. Wipe your data after this.

Sweet, i am so excited for this. Gonna install it as soon as I get a chance, downloading now. I can't wait to see if you guys figure out custom kernels
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
I'm real curious to hear what you guys found that will allow custom kernels on this phone. I already read over what birdman and nenolod were trying and it seems they threw in the towel. I read some other posts on droidforums about initiating essentially a second boot second to trick the phone into loading a custom kernel, but nothing more on that topic. Really curious to see how you might be able to implement this
Nice work guys. I will probably give this a try this weekend.
I too would like to hear your theory on how to get a new kernel on the phone. Not in a hurry to see it happen, but just curious to hear the underlying theory.
Though, I do understand if you are waiting to get it released before sharing. Just don't forget to let the community know when/if you get it worked out. It will open a lot of doors for some of these rom cookers around here, and rom cookers of the future.
and just installed it, sans computer intervention (thank god nothing went wrong or I'd be SOL for 5 hours lol, im at work)
mounted, wiped cache/data, remounted, installed, remounted, and wiped cache/data again just to be safe
now I'm waiting for it to restore all my apps and stuff so I can get everything reconfigured and have a glorious blur free phone! thank you so much devs, this is fantastic
Hey guys, awesome ROM! Very stable so far!
One thing I noticed: The "Car Home" application shows up in Android Market, but the update fails when attempting to apply it. Not sure what the cause of this is just yet. If I can glean more information from my own testing, will let you know.
Thanks again for the work you've put into this!

I am not sure why that happens, but if you really want the new one from market, you can just remove it from /system/app and then it will install fine from market. I have had that issue with other apps before. Honestly, with a lot of these apps in the market now, there really isn't much need to include them in the rom.
Seems to work pretty well. Got stuck in a boot loop because I didn't wipe my data, so I rebooted recovery and wiped it. Problem solved.
The only problem I'm having is that I can't get Backup Assistant to work, so I can't restore my phone numbers.
I downloaded the stock app rar, and tried doing an ADB install for BackupAssistanceClient and BuaContactAdapter, but I get "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]".
I tried copying over BuaContactAdapter.apk and BackupAssistanceClient.apk manually (to /system/app) and setting permissions, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Any ideas?

Export your contacts from the verizon website and then take that file and import it into gmail and sync your contatcs with gmail. Then, it doesn't matter which rom you install you'll have your contacts.

Here's what I did with another ROM. Go to VZW with your pc. Navigate to contacts. Export contact list as Outlook CSV. Go to your gmail acct and import the CSV. Sync phone contacts to gmail. Important to do the outlook export though. Regular CSV doesn't populate gmail contacts properly.
Just a quick question. If and when we flash this, are we still rooted? If so, can I just install bootstrap and reboot recovery and restore? Or do i have to do the whole root process again like if it was an original phone from store?
one thing with the bootloader i remember when i first got my eris was people on the fourms would keep emailing htc for the bootloader keys because it was hard to crack and htc gave them up ... maybe if we flood moto with emails and stuff they'll loosen up like htc

Yes, it comes with root. No, you do not want to restore. Restoring will bring you back to the backup you created. This rom comes with Superuser.apk (root) no need to re-root.

I seem to remember the alpha thread saying not to flash themes over this....but don't think it was mentioned this go round....still the case? (assume so). Figured it was worth noting in the first post if that's the case.
Also....I just installed this, and am also stuck unable to get it programmed.
First time it started the music and then got a failed message. Since then I don't even get the music, and after 20 seconds or so I just get a "Please enter the # you're calling about" message and if entered, it just tries to transfer me to cust service.

Have you tried *22899 send? Should go straight into programing the phone
I know that there are tons of threads about this but none of them have helped. My market just will not work. It shows it downloading, then displays the message "Download failed" for a split second and disappears.
I have an HTC Desire (BravoC/CDMA) with the latest version of CyanogenMod 7 Nightly and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9 for recovery. I also have Firerat's Custom MTD Partition. Details and links to all these can be found in my signature.
I feel like I've tried everything. Uninstall updates, Installed latest GApps, Installed old versions of GApps, Installed leaked versions of Gapps, cleared cache, formatted device.
This has been happening since the new market website was released. It really sucks, I can't update any apps or download any new apps.
If anyone can offer any help or suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you
Try removing SD card then try again. I had the same problem with my galaxy s I removed SD card backup on PC then I formatted it put it back in and market works perfect, don't ask me why but this worked for me

a little weird thing i noticed is,if i have checked the box that allows applications to be download to the external(Apps2sd) whatever i try to download, will be resulted with Unsuccessful. When i unchecked it, my downloads were successful.
See if you have it checked.
I discovered that it was a problem with the CSC file. I had exactly the same issue with a 'mixed up' firmware. Download would not work at all from the market. Anyhow, I flashed the phone (galaxy s) with a different CSC file and the market started downloading.
the only thing I had changed was that file.
So u may want to consider that Hope this helps.
I think there is also a possibility of going to applications --> market, and then stop & clear data.
same situation here...
re-flash the rom and market won't download anything.
But it's strange that I can install apps from web market.
i know i'm at the wrong thread but could somebody help me pls with sgs gingerbread im stuck at on command where it is saying that busybox is not a valid command and thats its not recognized
Thanks for all the suggestions guys, after some time I have discovered what was causing the market issue. It was the Firerat Custom MTD Partition Mod the whole time. Apparently the new version of the market deals with downloads a little differently now and doesn't get along with Firerat's mod.
So now the waiting game begins for a new update from Firerat.
Hi,
NOt a solution, but I found a workaround for this issue on my phone.
I am using Hyperdroid GBX V8 on my HTC HD2 now. From last 2 days I was struggling with this problem. I tried all solutions I found with google. Clearning everything and Reflashing, clearing the market and caches for other apps, reflashing, unmount/mount SDCARD and so on, smaller bigger recovery partition, without EXT3/4 partition.
Still the problem exist on the phone. But I found a workaround. Logon to market.android.com using your google id and password, select the app you want to install and click install. if your phone is up and live, it will be installed in a few seconds.
In other words, pull doesnt work, but push works .
Thanks.

I can't seem to figure out why the themes won't flash from the Liberty toolbox. I'm running v1.5. The themes will download, they just won't flash. I have tried literally everything - I've re-flashed the ROM, didn't work. I wiped data/cache then re-flashed the ROM, didn't work. I uninstalled the toolbox and then downloaded the new version of it (1.1.2), didn't work. I tried downloading the themes from the internet instead of the toolbox, still didn't work. Anyone have any idea on what to do?
wrong section and you did not need to start 2 threads, but to fix, i suggest to do a full wipe and reflash the rom
edit: read that you already did that. idk maybe it is just a problem for your phone
I had the same problem and i fixed it by going into my sd card then i found the liberty folder and then went into downloads. In there is a list of the themes and whatever else you have downloaded from the Liberty Toolbox find the theme you are having a hard time installing and delete it then try downloading it again and that should fix the problem.
Yea, deleting them worked for me as well. Actually I renamed them.
Doesn't seem to be working for me either...always aborts and the file sizes are all 1.04k no matter which theme I try to get...like the downloads time out and it reboots and tries to install anyways then fails...

Same issue
is there a way to get all of the htc widgets in a package for HTC Thunderbolt so i can manually install them myself using a move command or something via file manager?
Weird, I know I had this issue and I just flashed a rom to fix it. Did you try using plain jane?
nope, Im going to just try and find the a HTC widget pack...
when i download the HTC widget i want, IT downloads, but right afterwards just won't install like it just fades away..
If anyone can give detail instructions how to install HTC widget pack manually using a "move command" or some way to install it Let me know
Usually Fixing Permissions solves this issue. Try google for an APK for the file you want to install, see if that works.

actually,fixing permissions started back in the day to fix issues with AOSP roms and is not really reccomended for sense roms. running it may be doing more harm than good.
id try wiping cache/dalvik cache and reflashing the rom your running. not doing a data wipe will preserve your settings and data. if that doesnt help,then id try a completely fresh install(wipe data/dalvik/cache)
and if youre using rom manager,try it in recovery instead. rom manager is problematic aND unreliable,IMO.
I posted a topic about this about a week ago after installing MR2. There is an issue with Google recognizing and updating your info that is in some way related to the 4G SIM.
I kid you not....this is how to fix it...... It has happened to me twice the last week as I got an AE.
1. Wait. No matter what I did, it seemed to never "Come back" until about 48 hrs.
2. Clear the Market cache and data
3. Stop the market service
4. Sing into and out of Google talk like you are on OCD.
Pissed the second day I had this happened, I was sitting at a bar listening to some girl go on and on about something so I started signing in and out of Google talk like 14 - 16 times....... Opened the market...no problem!
For "Must have apps, go to the online market place via your computer and push them to your phone. That always worked for me no matter what. Good luck!
so as i previously posted, i flashed cm7 and lost all google apps. so i downloaded a android market apk file for android to get it back and it worked. now when i select the market app on my homescreen, its says " you must add an accout to the device to continue. do you want to add one now?" so when i click "yes" it closes and goes back to my homescreen. whats going on now. i dowloaded the file from multiupload and it installed perfectly. it seems once i get one problem fixed i run into another. any help would be much appreciated. thanx.
Have you tried flashing the gapps?
havent found one that worked yet. ideas?

Download and flash the universal gapps package ...(for CM7)(top of page in the center )
just click the link ,and the file will download right to your device .
then boot to recovery and flash it just like the rom ....dun
Happy flashing ....g
ok i downloaded the link to my device, now once im in recovery mode, what do i select? do i install zip from sd card? or wipe data/factory reset or what. i just dont wanna **** anything up lol. sorry im a total noob to this.
and when i bring the gapps up in ROM manager, a window thats says " rom pre-installation comes up. and has 1. backup existing rom, 2.wipe data and cache, and 3. wipe dalvik cache. the third is the only one selected. do i need to change any of this?
Install zip from SD card, it could be in the download section of your SD card. That's where mine was.
I.didn't wipe anything when I did it and I turned out OK. But if you get bootloops, pull the battery, boot back into recovery and wipe everything then install.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps
As per your posts your new so please spend a few hours reading up before doing anything like running a CM based rom as there are things that only effect CM based roms.
Use recovery to flash things not rom manager (didnt know that was even still used lol)
hell, you didnt even have to leave XDA to find the information....ya know, since its in the FIRST EFFING POST on the CM thread.....
