Swype Keyboard app for the EVO? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am moving to the EVO on Friday and am a big keyboard guy. Because of SWYPE I can live without one... I was wondering the one touchscreen keyboard I have liked is SWYPE, does anyone know if the SWYPE app we have working on the Moment will work for the EVO?
OR is there a new 2.1 version of the keyboard out yet?
Thanks for any info or links...

Bielinsk,
Do you happen to have a link to the Swype Nexus One version, I've only got the modded version for the Moment, which I believe runs at a lower resolution.... If you happen to have a link so I can download it and have it to install once I get my EVO I would be very grateful.
Thanks

It is somewhere on here. Not to be an ass, but use the forum search, there was an entire thread about swype on the Evo.

Found it, the thread was under Themes and Apps

sorry but Swype has now been deemed "warez" and can no longer be found on the forum. can't post the file, can't post a link to the file, and i dont even think you can post about it or as much as think about it!

so the porting of swype is warez, but hacking the OS to allow free tethering, a service that by the TOS of sprint is to be paid for, is allowed? I can never understand that one...

The Swype developers threw a fit about it and demanded that the links be removed. I had several themed versions of 2.4 that I created.....only for the thread to be killed and my work done in vain.
You can't blame them........we were giving a free app away for free.lol

@blue... Any chance you have a flashable theme for swype? I have swype already and am part of the swype beta... Any change of getting just a theme?
Right now I'm using 1.61 that had been trimmed with english only.. Would love to theme my swype....
Especially if it was an apk it flashable
Thanks!!!

So why is the EVO version still in beta when the Samsung 4G whatchmacallit ships with a final version?

Well its not XDA anymore for download because of an agreement that was made but other sites dont agree

[Q] Will ViperPad App Work On NON-Viperroms?...

Hey XDA'ers,
Quick question, just wondering if anyone would know... I'm running Viperrom Synergy, and I wanna upgrade to EG22. But I LOVE my viper pad. It's an app in my app drawer... Think I can move the app to SD or computer hard drive and then move it back to the phone after upgrading to gingerbread?
Just curious to see if anyone's done it before...
Yes I've been running it on EH06 for the past week and its working like a charm =D
Im actually porting the themeing from VIPERrom SynErgY.... you should check it out
Just download Swipepad from the market. Its the identical same thing. And you'll receive updates now. That's wut I did when I lost my precious viperpad.
If u require viperpad for sum reason still just extract it from system/apps in viperrom and paste it into system/apps on ur new rom and restart.

same here. viperrom made me completely reliant on some "pad". def an overlooked app...really really useful and reliable.
here's the market link for swipe pad (in case ur crippled) and the system/app viperpad (extracted from viperrom)::
swipepad
View attachment ViperPad.apk
Also including viperwheel widget...another awesome app/widget only on viperrom that i still use - View attachment ViperWheelWidget.apk
**something you can try if you DON'T want these to be installed as system/apps - after you DO place them in the system/app folder, go into titanium pro, long press both apps, and try to convert to regular user apps (that show up in data/app folder). This will probablyl work, but i havent tested. Worked with gmail, though.**
dayammm looking at viperrom again brings back some awesome memories. my first rom! it really was the coolest themed rom i've seen so far, too. really holds up lol.

[Solved]Chrome Browser fix!!!![Fixed]

As us Custom Rom users have found out.. Since coming out of Beta Google was nice enough to leave us without our "BELOVED CHROME"... I feel your pain my FELLOW MEMBERS!! This is what I did to get it to work and let me tell you...The NEW UPDATE IS FAAAAASSSTT!!! Also has some 3d animation going on as well... Without further adu...You will need Rom toolbox from the Market which I posted the link below... In Rom Toolbox there are 3 pages...If you swipe the screen to the left it will put you on page 2 (READS PERFORMANCE)..This is where YOU NEED TO BE.. TAP ON:build.prop Editor.....Scroll down to:ro.build.id and make sure it reads (IML74K) if it doesn't then change to IML74K.. Then click SAVE..Then Reboot and Download Chrome and then you should be all set to go...
EDIT:YOU "MUST" ALSO CHANGE:ro.build.display.id also to IML74K..... DON'T FORGET TO SAVE AFTER CHANGES ARE MADE!! THEN "REBOOT DEVICE!!
PLEASE READ:This will get browser working but only 25% of the time..Browser keeps freezing..Thanks to a few good members for the HEADS UP!! This community is AWESOME!!
If I helped in any way a friendly Thanks would be appreciated!! Good Luck PEEPS!!

The only difference between the two I've noticed is that certain options that don't work for our devices have been removed in the one from the link I posted, as well as the wallpaper doesn't scroll in the one I posted (which I prefer, and removing options I can't use makes it feel cleaner).

I'll be honest. I like the very clean transparent look of everything, the transitions throughout the launcher are very nice, and it ran smoother than anything else has on 4.0.4, even Nova, Apex, or Trebuchet. Still went back to Apex as I just like the options in it the most.

I never understood why people post whore for thanks clicks. Help people for the sake of helping them, not for a fruitless rating system.
For what it's worth, in my opinion the OP should be given an infraction for posting this app without doing any sort of research as to the original developer to give proper credit, and then asking for thanks clicks for doing nothing.

Used this link instead, was gonna post in that thread but its acting weird, other than that, its probly the smoothest launcher i've used in a while, only problem is the lack of features
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I like that he added badges for missed calls, texts, and emails on the dock and obviously how smooth and clean looking it is/the transitions are.
The things I don't like are the size of the dock and dock icons (makes my screen area look smalllll) and I can't live without my double tap to expand notifications. Other features I'd like to see is scrollable dock, ICS style folders, and custom icon support.

Constructively criticizing Swype makes sense but just posting it sucks, isn't really helpful or even the topic of this forum... Any retard can make comments without real thought..
So if Swype is difficult to theme anything like it out there that is more customizable? (theme wise, I just really like to theme my whole phone.)

Can anyone confirm if this version uses more RAM? On my SGS III it is using 44MB, phone has been on for 25 hours.
But on my LG Thrill 4G, it is still on the older version (1.1.1.7628) and using 18MB for the past 16 hours.
I'm at 35mb after 12 hours but I noticed they put a lot more work into Swype connect so the app is only using about 20mb & the Swypeconnect part is at about 15mb. I also noticed after signing in to it to back up my dictionary that somehow all my words are gone.. go figure. Hopefully I can get it back through titanium or something.

You're comparing peanuts to peanuts in a sea of 2GB. I'd still be using Swype even if it was hogging... 25% of my ram, but, atm, it's only eating 39MB.
just a quick question I installed it on my phone running frosty JB v2 and the keyboard works great but I don't have theme options anyone else have this?
BTW tried it on an aokp rom and themes were there, any ideas how to get it working with both roms?
Just updated. Thank God for a nice black theme like I had on my RAZR, and now "i" is auto-capitalizing to "I"properly again. Second one was REALLY bugging me.
Will be interesting to see the new Swiftkey swype offering tough.

The gestures are pretty handy when i remember to use them.

How long has this beta been around? Are they eventually going to put a release on the android market?

It uses the Dragon Go voice engine. Dragon Go is an app in the market as well, pretty handy.
That's a good question, It's been beta since the original galaxy s. I don't know when they are going to make it official.

I think the beta is used to test out new features which they include to OEMs. Not sure they are going to put out an actual app in the Marketplace.
