Even after restarting, resetting to factory settings on the entire device, it still will not let me type with swype.
Here's the video to show it: dailyapper.com /?p=292 (remove the space before the / )
I have an issue that might be related. I rooted, used titanium backup to remove bloatware. Everythings fine but the option to change languages in swype is greyed out and no languages in my list when i hold 'q.'
Help? Reinstalled the apk from system dump too.

Just got my first Android phone yesterday (the Captivate) so I'm probably not much of an authority here as other people are but I'll try to help as much as I can.
You might have to uninstall and reinstall Swype on your phone...as far as instructions on how to do it as well as the .apk for it, you can find them somewhere here in the forums. If you need help trying to find it, I'll help as much as I can.
Maybe changing the UI from TouchWiz to something else as I did may help with lag in general. I switched to LauncherPro and it helped with "lag" when moving between home screens.
If all else fails, head back to the store and try to get it exchanged. Could be a glitch with your phone.
As I said, I'm no expert at all but just want to help as much as I can.
What have you installed on your phone? I installed Dolphin Browser HD and it caused all sorts of slow downs on my phone even when it wasn't running! Swype is perfectly fast for me. Do you still have the samsung touch wiz UI running?
Dolphin Browser HD slows mine down as well. As well as the TouchWiz UI.
I have it rooted but have not done anything to it. Have a handful of market Apps installed. I reset to factory settings already and still had the same issue. Going to do a complete system dump back to factory when I get home later today. But it was doing this before I rooted it.

any idea on what might have caused it? what apps have you install? I may be having same issue.
did a complete whipe and erased all data.
it's back to normal now.
Didn't get normal the first whipe, though, weird.
and after a days use and only installing about 5 apps - it's freezing the same way again. I am going to go return it.
(First off, this is my first post so my apologies if I've done anything improper here)
Ok, so there are a lot of posts about Titanium Backup restore issues but I haven't quite been able to fix my problem. I'm not trying batch restores or anything complicated like that, and the advice I've seen in the past and on the Titanium Backup FAQs doesn't work. Here's my problem:
Yesterday I backed up then uninstalled "Facebook for HTC Sense 1.0" but then realized that my phone (HTC Incredible) uses that to link my contacts with their Facebook profiles (for pictures, birthday notifications, etc.). So today I went to restore it and Titanium Backup just hangs (there is a spinning wheel on the left and it says "Restoring App: 'Facebook for HTC Sense 1.0'") It does this whether I try restoring just the app or app+data.
I have root and updated busybox from the "Problems" button in the app. Many people on here have said to go to "Troubleshooting settings" and change the "App processing mode" but when I go there that option is greyed out. I'm sure this would work (it has for others it seems), but I don;t know what to do since it is greyed out.
I thought about reinstalling Titanium Backup, but I don't want to lose my data to restore from. I don't know how that works.
Anyone know what to do?
UPDATE: Well I don't think reinstalling would help, since an update just came through the market. I figure an update would've fixed anything that a reinstall would have. Also, to add a little more information on the problem, I was able to restore "Adobe Reader 9.0.1" but not able to restore "Footprints 1.10" (another HTC built-in app)
I have the same problem on my HTC Desire.
After installing the latest CyanogenMod, I wanted to return a couple of the HTC-supplied apps. Titanium Backup gets superuser permissions and seems happy, but then freezes at 0% restore. The application processing option in preferences is always greyed out.
Hi guys, one thing that I learned while migrating to Cyanogenmod is that restoring HTC apps will really hurt stability and possibly lead to bootlooping, as there is no HTC sense framework for their apps to work correctly. AFAIK, there is no way around that. I learned the hard way that restoring all apps and data just will not work between AOSP roms and Sense roms. I'm sorry I can't offer more help on it, but you'll need to pick and choose your apps and data and make sure you don't bring Sense/HTC stuff into Cyanogenmod. I know, it's frustrating! Good luck guys!

We'll my problem is slightly different because I'm still using sense. I didn't load any new roms. I removed it and then tried to restore the next day without making any other changes. So why won't my apps restore?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
what did you remove? was it a system app or something you installed from the market? system apps, when "removed" even when backed up, don't reinstall from my experience. I never had any problem reinstalling any user apps that were properly backed up though.
I'm wondering if this is something to do with HTC's "S on" extra security.
Need to read up on this — anyone have a good resource about it? It seems a bit more obscure than just rooting, with some unreliable-looking websites about it. And I'm coming at this as a total n00b
But the system folder does indeed seem to have some kind of extra write-protection going on, even when accessing it as root.
I have a G2X and I have also learned the hard way that Titanium will not restore system apps. So the problem your having has nothing to do with Sence. If you search the for forums hard enough there is info on the topic
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
So... If I do a factory reset on my phone then, will all be fixed? Or does uninstalling it remove it from wherever the factory reset would pull from?
I'll probably need to root it again after, but I just want that "Facebook for HTC Sense" app back so my contacts link with their facebook profiles for continually updating phone numbers, profile pictures, etc.

Problem Solved
I flashed Liberation Enhanced v1.00 yesterday and everything is fixed. Liberation does all that I wanted to do in the first place: have Sense without the bloatware. It was my first time flashing a new ROM and I'm happy to say it went very well
(Now once I get enough posts in, I can add it to my signature like everyone on here seems to like to do)
guess you fixed the issue, but dealing with Titanium Backup, i sometimes have it hanging when i freeze/unfreeze or sometimes it hangs/freezes when backing up/restoring. in the settings there's like some different restoration methods it lets you choose (Direct, Indirect, and something else), but switching it to Indirect Method fixed the issue for me, so just incase someone else runs into a similar problem. im on a SGS4G.

I think what you're talking about may be part of the "App processing mode" option that I said was greyed out for some reason on my phone.
I replaced my first Galaxy Note 10.1 with Amazon about a week ago after experiencing random crashes. These crashes cause the display to shut off for about 10 seconds and then the tablet returns to the lock screen. After the crash the app open before the crash is completely killed. Any information that was unsaved is unrecoverable. This happened during class using S-Note and I lost a fairly large document. I felt as if I would no longer be able to trust the tablet for important notes because I never knew when it would crash.
Up until today, I assumed the root injected system or root in general caused this issue but I did not have evidence otherwise. I had not seen a thread about this so I assumed I was the only one. Today I was able to re-produce the crash multiple times on my tablet, and two of my friends with the Note 10.1 as well.
If there is a developer who can possibly investigate this issue I think it could help the community.
The crash can be reproduced by:
Opening Polaris Office > New Document > Sheet 2007 (excel) > Put data in any cell > Cut the entire column > try to paste the data in any other column.
Keep in mind this error has occurred in many other apps such as S-Note, calendar, and using the launcher. This is the only specific function that I have been able to re-produce.
Please let me know if any one else in the community has experienced this issue and what app it has crashed in.
I try to reproduce it folowing ur step. But, nope..no crash here. Everything is smooth for me..

I realized the 3 tablets we did it on were all updated to the OTA system update before it was pulled. If you are not on the update it may not be the same.
I tried it on my brother pre-ota and his did not crash. I'm really wanting to reach out to the community to see if anyone has experienced system crashes similar to this.

I have tested exactly as described with Sheet 2007 and no crash whatever - but I use the stock ROM aka not rooted...
Just tried on my non-updated note and no crash.
Thanks to everyone who has tried. I will continue to find out what is common between our tablets. My brothers note popped up with a paste window that I had never seen before on my tab.

Hello, I got my Samsung Note 10.1 used, I loved it so much when I first got it that I dont remember if it was having issues, I think an app crashed and I disregarded it because I planned to factory reset assuming it would fix any problems. I didnt root it because honestly I've never been without su, sep of last year was when I got my first smart device, ever, a pantech burst and I had it rooted immmediatly and I wanted to experiance the differance. So my samsung isn't rooted, i checked with root checker, just to make sure, just now. I didn't try to replicate the crash using the following, (so, not sure, but ill try it and if it does I'll post results.) 'Cause random apps are crashing left and right, some crash right after instillation upon opening. Theres no noticable relitivity to the crashes, in the sence that the crashing apps are categorically random and I tried "uninstall, reinstall" ,and "repeated" also having same result . I'll admit I have a bit of an app addiction, so... using blk mart and mobo on wifi, I've sat in market with continous installations and some crashed before they were even opened, (I love utillities and tools which most all were found via researched and haveing good reveiws online before Instillation fyi). I feel almost all have crashed at least once, I've factory resetted my pantech numorous times, due to a hacker exboyfriend, that I've followed strict precautions , hoping to avoid my strainuous reset routine of app and pic transfer because I've had so many password changes and
Hijacked emails, I've done a total of three resets, and apps that worked fine before would crash upon reinstillation (after transfer to pantech and back). Also the keyboreds, I like full and hackers, (for key prefrence, ive only ever hacked my own stuff to get them back, I've never hacked another person, fyi) and even using google's and factory keyboard, they have random, yet sometimes specific gliches, example; trying to type my zip code into assurance wireless portal, it wouldn't type at all, or it would type all sevens, ect., Untill ultimately i just give up (which is greatly out of character for me, I'm very patient and persistant expecially when it involves online applications of importance, it just reminded me, also, my touhes have been quirky. I plan to reset once again in a moment, and I gotta have su, I dont like this unrooted crap, lol, so I'm gonna root it and ill post if it acts the same which I figure baed on past fix attempts, it probably will. Also this was my first stop on my research agenda, so I'll post my findings, btw this was a gift, cant afford a replacement, anyways I love my awesome forward facing speakers and my so freakin useful split screen. Im not giving up, so pls help, all advice, no matter the level of crudness, Im familiar with techman impatience, and Im not a panzy. Thx, later.

I sure have, what makes u ask, if ya dont mind me askin, why is that a problem? It seems to work fine. Whats ur advice? Info, pls.
Mine, an N8013, has been experiencing similar problems, but with some differences. It randomly crashes as described in the original post but also quits apps, especially gmail, Dolphin browser and Titanium and returns to the Home screen. Attempting to re-open the ssme app or a different app or to wake up the device will cause it to flicker between the last crashed app and the Home screen a couple times before settling down. I don't know if the problems are reproducable. They occur without any pattern of precipitating actions. I, too, need to get this solved. Any help will be appreciated. Oh, yes, my N8013 is rooted.
I recently posted a few different times a query about the following problem in specific developers threads the kernels of whom I had experienced the sams problem. I made a few people frustrated because I didn't let it alone that noone was responding there. I havs come to find that it is the same on any kernel change and furthermore is the same with the stock rooted deodexed rox with stock kernel i am running now.
To save time I am going to paste here and edit from one pf my posts from the other threads....
........
I posted the question a couple of months ago if anyone else was experiencing issues when NOT JUST USING SCREEN MIRRORING, which works just fine for me, but when using screen mirroring & then employ an video streaming app (OTHER THAN YOUTUBE) like NETFLIX or hULU or HBO GO. I am getting an issue where I get sound across the stream but no video except the progress bar and volume controls. otherwise it is black screen. the menus even work fine for selecting a video but once it loads it is black, also if using HULU there is a 5 second video that introduces what series you are watching before the program starts. this will run with video but nothing but black screen +controls when program starts.
Does anyone else experience this after rooting or software modding. I am running as close to stock as I care to n920tuvs4dph2 stock deodexed rooted with stock kernel.
Next I will be reying stock with auto root. But I love some of these kernels out there and I am also inclined to keep a backup of the stock for when I want to mirror and flash kernel when I don't. But a fix would be nice.
I of course lost mirroring altogether when flashing current rom but a single line of build.prop editing rmedied that, but when trying to stream a netflix video ... BLACK.
PLEASE TEST THIS IF YOU HAVE THE TIME!
If you do not have a samsung TV or a Roku on which to test this then I encountered identical problem when trying to stream from a paid service to my laptop when using sidesync. Which I believe most anyone can test.
I would greatly appreciate your feedback on this and remember that all other elements of screen mirroring work fine except this. Alos streaming from You Tube works with video.
This particular feature fail has plagued me during whatever Spears changes i have made
Also please let me know which model phone (mine is Note 5 Tmo) you are using''
Thank you soooo much in advance!!!!
Found an answer HERE I had come across the fix of disabling hdcp in build.prop but didn't know own what it really meant. Basically hdcp is DRM or copyright protection and when you alter your stock software the apps that use hdcp will not function properly. There is no current or expected fix.
Thank you in advance. First of all I am still a beginner in knowledge here. My Alcatel fierce 4 TCL 5056N seems to have been hacked and is now being remotely accessed and controlled by an unauthorized 3rd party. I may be way off base but I think my phone may have been exposed to a R.A.T.. Temporarily rooted long enough for someone to modify the kernel and other system coding, which I cannot access myself with an unrooted phone, installing some sort of sub-OS with limited user setting options and a completely different named storage platform,( I.e. emulated, bdef55, self), and not even factory resetting my device helps because it reboots into the sub-OS they installed. They are screen overlaying buttons, and toggles are being reversed in real time before my eyes, settings and options are disappearing from one minute to the next and I've somehow found myself poking around in some windows software on a PC that is used to develop Android software, maybe sdk, not sure but was Linux coding and looked like it was meant for me. I was on the other end of this hack for a few minutes tho but my lack of knowledge made this useless to me. I have downloaded many an app trying to combat this issue but to no avail. Although unsuccessful I have seen a few thing I don't understand but could possibly be helpful for you to identify exactly what my issue is. One thing is an app I downloaded said that a trust cert has enabled a malicious trust agent and my system is being remotely accessed by a third party. The rest is beyond my understanding but I'm going to list a few tidbits you may recognize. LIB, Kinguser, kingroot, persist, unremovable/???/xxx, code Aurora, bootstrap something, libnfc, system/framework/Apache/xml, bin, user value=0 or 1/2, managed provisioning, also a .base ext. on a bunch of sytem apps below the same app without and a few of others. I don't know if that's helpful but it's all I can remember. Symptoms are apps closing on their own, microphone and camera being remotely enabled, unable to update Google play services or store and being forced to use an obviously older and modified version with possible replica apps with restrictions, unexpected reboots, in settings/apps/permissions apps like gallery, when you click battery and then the little i button for info, it says it's a system app and all of the sudden the disable and force close buttons become un-highlighted and unusable and so on and so forth. Lastly, my home wifi is infected I think as well because my roommate is having the same issues. I've tried(unsuccessfully) to root my phone so I could manually remove some of these apps and extra coding and such but it seems impossible because of a locked bootloader. Tried about 10 different ways without success so I've just about given up and smashed the damn thing but then you geniuses popped into my head so I beg of you, please help me or if nothing else, tell me to proceed with the smashing...lol! Thank you very much for your time. P. s. I'm new to XDA dev website so maybe drop me a line at [email protected] with directions back to this thread. Had a bit if trouble navigating here. Thanks again and have a great day! -Spencer
