I used that version and it's quite fugly. There a way to skin it?
Is this the version of Swype from the original 2.1 slide rom or is it some dodgy low-res knockoff?

Its the same res, but blue instead of black. Also, the swype that comes with the slide is 1.29.x and the one I downloaded and am running is 1.60.x, and it runs much better.

weird. Is there a special way to install swype or something? I tried installing swype with astro, but swype is not showing up as an input method...
when I pressed launch (via app manager) it says activity not found: com.swype.android.inputmethod
Lol, I was just asking about this in my question thread. It might not be installing because it needs to changed from a .zip to .apk. that's just what was suggested to me. Haven't tried yet

lol nvm I just found out >_>
go setting->language & keyboard settings-> enable swype and you're good to go
speaking of which, is there a swype keyboard of similar version yet with a different skin? or does the later versions make a significant improvement? The blue one looks kinda eh on the screen =\
The keyboard in 1.60 is bigger more like the size htc_ime

Both of the APKs that were linked say that they're expired is there another version I can use?
I just got an email from swype beta and was wondering if anyone has used that version, does it expire? Is it worth the download? I already have swype installed (was released with previous version of vaelpak)

It includes voice as well as fix some of the annoying autocorrect issues as well as reducing the word suggestion window popup
I thought those who already have swype pre installed were not supposed to install the beta..true?
i like the new beta better...having the mic key was enough for me...but altogether i think it is better.
btw, even if you had swype installed and install the beta, when it expires you can always go back to what you had. just remove swype apk and swype installer apk using root explorer.
i just got the first beta acceptance email (happy me) it seems they are looking for more testers. coo
I did not get an email but went and checked guess what it had me in the program re-sent the email and now I have the new swype. Yeah

The new swype 2.15 is phenomenal. I hardly make any mistakes anymore as opposed to the old swype 2.10. Give it a try. If you would like a great source for APKs like these, feel free to message me. Also includes instructions that are flawless to get it working. Very easy to do.
I just got the beta acceptance email too. It does seem much more accurate than the older version. Also, a tip on using meta morph with the official beta, just copy the file (leaving the com.android.touchinput file in data/app) and paste the duplicate in system/app. This should allow the updater to still think everything is kosher. I seemed to hit a few snags when I plain moved it.

I've been in the beta for a little while now and I really like this update!

Thank you for the post. I too have not received a beta invite from Swype after creating an account. Granted I only made the account a couple days ago, so I was not expecting an invite.
Long story short, I was also able to log onto the swype beta website and there was a button to "resend" the beta invite email. All that it contained was the link to the beta installer. I was able to use my login to successfully activate the software on my phone too.
Got my invite 12/08/10 (yesterday) via email ! Loaded the new beta (v2.15.56.14870) today. I Love it, seems accurate, and has voice-typing !! Go Swype.

Same problem I had. I went back to my previous version.
Run the repair tool in the latest installer. If it doesn't have a repair tool, then you need to uninstall Swype and the installer, then reinstall by clicking the link in your latest Swype beta email.

The emphasis is on "pre-installed" as in it was installed when you purchased your device. For those who have beta versions that they signed up for are allowed to upgrade to this new beta version. But those whose devices had swyoe preinstalled, the new beta is NOT for you.

Are you authorized to use the new beta? Did you sign up for a beta invite and was approved? If not, you're not going to be able to use it unless it gets hacked.

With Swype now in the latest release of EVO firmware, does that make the Swype apk for EVO no longer considered to be warez?
Sure, a week after I'm in the beta they release it as part of the stock firmware ;-)
Is there a better swype keyboard that we can install?? for example remove the one that came with the 3.70 software and install a better looking version or the white version i see on moto devices??
what happens if i delete sprint_swype and get the one off the swype site like i did with my hero?
thank you!!

You can use the Swype installed on your device or the beta version, they should both work fine. You would probably want to remove the Sprint Swype first before installing the beta. I went back to the beta initially as it wasn't included in my ROM choice, but ended up figuring out how to use the Sprint Swype and jumped back to that. I believe they both work about the same in my experience. If its just theming you are after, I recommend checking here. It themes the keyboard picture and the trace line, and in my opinion looks a lot sharper than the Sprint or Beta Swype. You have to be comfortable with root and metamorph however.

thanks... .
The newest swype beta came out a few weeks ago and I simply don't use it becaues it's so damn ugly, hah. Has anyone themed it yet? I find that the swype beta works WAY better for me for some reason, so I don't want to push the official to my phone. I've tried moving the app to the proper locations for the existing Metamorph themes to act on it, but it always ends up breaking swype (it didn't used to). AFAIK, the current themes at the moment only work on the old betas and the "official" for sense roms. Anyone know of themes for the latest beta?
For the record I'm on CM7 RC3.
Well... still no luck in my own search, but this thread was updated by the OP today:

So hopefully we'll have something soon. Surprised so many people are just dealing with how ****ty the swype beta looks
Never mind. Lazy search skills at work. Coffee made me search properly.
I had the same issue. I removed the Swype that came with the rom and then installed Swype Beta.
Yeah, I took care of it that way. Took me a minute to search for it. Hooray for coffee making me remember things.
I've just got the regular Swype. I guess it's time to search for Beta. I remember a thread with it floating around somewhere.
I'm having a problem with swype too. How do you remove the swype that came with the rom? I can't seem to figure that out.
To remove/install beta, you need to be rooted (not an issue here). you must also have another keyboard (Samsung keyboard is usually there) I use titanium backup to uninstall it, but I've heard other apps can handle it.
As for installing beta. You go to their website and register for the beta, and they give you instructions on how to install it. Qbking77 has a video on the process somewhere. I'd link, but i'm mobile. Hope this helps
