Does any one have a working copy of SWYPE the official SWYPE keyboard that works? I have used almost everyversion on xda but they install fine, but when I click on a TEXT box to start typing it FC.
or even the GingerBread Keyboard would be great. One that works with an easy install....
thanks
You tried signing up for their official beta? I'm using it now and it's working perfectly.
how do i sign up for their beta? where do i go?
http://beta.swype.com
i havent dl'ed it yet... the stock sense kb is not to bad
Did you know that the new keyboard has a slide-option too? Maybe you could try that one first.
Nevermind. got the swype beta installed. I love swype, fastest keyboard ever.
Thanks everyone

The stock keyboards "trace" feature as its called is trash compared to Swype..I tried the stock one and didn't like it very much so I installed Swype. 100 times better.
I downloaded it now and works fine.

I got Swype but when it downloaded the keyboard does not fill the screen. There is a gap on the right. Is anyone else having this problem?

No, the issue might be if you have your lcd density set lower, it might not scale correctly.
Shoot me a PM if you decide you don't want to use the beta.
Swype is fantastic, but new beta swype don't have a Croatian language

This is how y'all can get swype 3.7 (not beta) working:
1. Download this rom and extract it .
2. Open extracted folder and navigate to System / app / and copy the Swype_3.7.apk to the root of your sdcard.
3. Open extracted folder and navigate to System / lib / and copy the libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so to the root of your sdcard.
4. Open Root Explorer / System / Build.prop and edit "ro.product.brand=htc_wwe" to "ro.product.brand=tmobile" (Dont forget to Mount R/W to do this). Reboot.
5. Open Root Explorer / sdcard / and copy both files (Swype_3.7.apk and libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so) to System Folder. "Don't put them into the app and lib folder yet" and also Dont forget to Mount R/W to do this).
6. Long Press your Swype_3.7.apk / Select Permissions / Changes to rw-r--r--
7. Long Press your libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so / Select Permissions / Changes to rw-r--r--
8.Move file ( Swype_3.7.apk )to /system/app
9.Move file ( libSwypeCore.3.7.85.27287.so ) to System / lib
10. Reboot
Enjoy!!!
Don't think the above method is legal

Some times my phone wont wake-up, then i hold the power button for a few seconds the phone will reboot then.
Do you have the same problem, its tooks longer to get your phone on...
First, you need ROOT access to do this. It will fix the security force-close and enable the uninstall of apps.
1 - Download FIXV2 here - http://d-h.st/gMh
2 - Extract the file to your desktop and copy the files inside "FIRMWARE\IMAGE" folder to your phone.
3 - Download root explorer from play store and move those files to the firmware\image directory located on your phone.
4 - Long press each file and set permition to RW-R-R (0644) (You do this by selecting OWNER to read and write, GROUP to read and OTHERS to read.
5 - Reboot and try accessing settings.
Thanks to ferreinf for the link and how to do it, I just tried to do this as much newbie proof as possible.
have seen this problem in numerous ROM threads(haven't myself run into this), thanks for the heads up :thumbs up:

No, it has nothing to do with what you want and there's absolutely no point in doing what wanna do either. You can not reclaim the free space to yourself and that would yet prevent you from installing OTA updates. The best way around this is to unable the system apps you don't wanna run.

Worked for me to get the nexus g+ rom working fully... used root browsed in ROM Toolbox to copy the files to the relevant folder off root, and set all the permissions to rwx.
Your phone must be rooted and has Root Explorer Installed.
- Open Root Explorer go to system Folder
- open build.prop in Text Editor search for this line
ro.product.name=SHV-E330L
ro.product.device=SHV-E330L
-Then change it to this
ro.product.name=SM-N900L
ro.product.device=SM-N900L and then save it.
-Then restart your phone and check if it works
See attachments for some instructions
To moderators kindly delete this if it has similar post Thanks.

This is NOT my work I'm only posting a link to the original thread. Fully working! The keyboard is weird but kind of cool.
How I installed. I downloaded every file, I wanted to try it all. then extracted them all to the same folder. Then I copied the priv-app folder into System root/system using FX Explorer (you need root) any root Explorer will do the trick. After that just reboot. With the launcher you can use icon packs as well!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3244542
Don't forget to thank @entrysky for all his hard work.
Mentions that CWM or TWRP Recoveries are needed?
I just extracted the zips then copied the priv-app into System using a root explorer and rebooted. Worked for me, I'm guessing flashfire might work but could take longer to do.
Hope this helps.

Still not quite sure exactly what you are doing here. Each Zip has it's own priv-app folder. What exactly are you combining before putting it into the system folder?
FYI: Flashing zips in order with Flashfire didn't work.
I extracted each one into the same folder, so all the apps ended up in the same priv-app folder as seen in this pic. Then I copied the priv-app folder.
Here is a step by step guide with pictures.
1) download the files.
2) get RAR from Google play. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarlab.rar
3) open RAR and go to where you download the files, select all the files you want (see first PIC)
4) click the extract button and tick overwrite without prompt. (See PIC 2) then click OK.
5) using a root explorer open the files you just extracted i use FX
6) open the system folder (see PIC 3)
7) copy priv-app (see PIC 4+5)
8) go to your system(ROOT) (see PIC 6)
9) scroll down to the system folder then open it (see PIC 7)
10) in FX there is a padlock at the top to allow read/write click this (see PIC 8, 9 and 10)
11) Go to clipboard then paste select merge/overwrite (see PIC 11 and 12)
12) Long press the middle button on the back of your phone in the middle of volume up/down and select reboot.
13) click thanks

Very much appreciate the effort! Unfortunately, even though I followed your directions perfectly, I still don't have any of the apps. I'm not sure if using flashfire to flash the files previously screwed something up.
That's strange? Did you download 1-4 as these are the main files you need. As you can see its worked for me. Have you tried to fix permissions?
Thank you for sharing. BTW, have you tried BB HUB? also, what about permissions? Maybe I missed but you didnt mentioned anything about it.
I've used the hub its quite handy having all your notifications in one place, also the password keeper is very handy for storing and generating passwords.
Permissions need to be 644 there are apps which will fix it all automatically for you or you can do it manual set to read/write then read and read. See PIC
I have copied resources, productivity edge, services, launcher and hub, but nothing works. Changed permissions for folders and files.. I took only priv folders from zips and coppied to system..
That's strange, i can't be the only one it works for? Did you download the BlackBerry exchange services fixed?

priv folder in fixed zip is empty, no apk inside... btw I extradited it on PC, then transferred to sd.
Strange? I've zipped what I used and uploaded it to my Google drive there is also 2 apps in the app folder I didn't bother with these t.b.h. I've only just noticed them lol. Try extracting the zip the copy app and pri-app into your root system folder let me know if it works? You might have a corrupt download or 2.
