Swype is an amazing piece of software, which makes typing on touchscreen only phones (like the Galaxy Ace) much more convenient (I still prefer the stock Gingerbread keyboard.) The SAMSUNG Galaxy Ace comes preinstalled with Swype, so if you try to install Swype BETA (which is updated, and more accurate) on it, you'll get a licensing error - which is very easy to fix:
Root your phone.
Delete /system/app/Swype.apk using Root Explorer or equivalent thereof.
Go to the email you received and click on the link to download the installer.
Follow the instructions given in the installer to finish installing Swype (BETA)!
This should work for any phone which has Swype preinstalled.
nb. You can request an invite for the BETA from beta<dot>swype<dot>com*

Am struck at the last step. It is taking a hell lot of time to download the swype beta. I interrupted in the middle to check if the net is working fine. I am using wifi and it is doing fine. But the download is not getting completed. Is the size of the file being downloaded that big?

swype wont let 'select swype'
I got a problem with my swype beta and its driving me mad.
All os a sudden my ace wouldnt let me choose the swype beta keyboard anymore.
So i deinstalled and then installed the whole thing. Then when it comes down to the screen of the installer where it says 'Enable swype' and 'select swype', I go into the settings, check the box, and have the same problem as before.
I can check the box nex to swype, but it doesnt have any effect, it still wont let me 'select swype'. And it still wont let me select swype as an input method.
I did not move swype to the ext or anything.
Maybe I accidently moved it the first time with link2sd, other than that I honestly dont know the reason for it to stop working in the first place.
Thanks in advance
NEVER MIND!!! simple reboot did it. should have thought of that earlier. still the lesson is not to move swype to ext

Have you tried clicking on the settings button on the android keyboard, like when you are actually typing something, I did notice that selecting it from the Swype setup thing doesn't seem to work.
Also you can try with this app:

Never had such a problem. I have linked the Swype beta to SD but never found any problem with it.......
Hi all!!!
I was trying to install an update of this fantastic keyboard since I have my SGA but never could till I found this topic and I downloaded the apk file that is some posts before this one and that´s great, so thanks a lot!!!
The bad thing is that after updating swipe, I lost a lot of internal memory, I had almost 40mb and now I have 17mb...how could be??? swipe pre installed on my phone was almost 10mb, and the new one is a little bigger, 10,24mb, so I should have at least 35mb not 17!!!
If anyone can help me I would be very happy!!!
Thanks

Maybe I understood you wrong, but my suggestion would be that you did not deinstall the preinstalled swype. Swype BETA does not automatically do that for you. Did you mean aou were updating swype beta???
Another explanation could be that your words in the dictionary were deleted when you dit the update. But that would have been a lot of words then...
Thanks for answering!!!
I first installed the apk file of swipe that was posted here and that was when swipe was so big in size and took all my internal memory...then I uninstalled the update bia settings and uninstalled original swipe with Root Uninstaller...but when I tried to install the new apk file posted here it told me that it was not installed...
Finally I unistalled the original file again, installed swipe beta installer, and installed the new version of swipe...Now, it constantly tells me that the swipe process has made an unknown error and must close, I can't even use the phone because the message appears every 3 seconds...
I need help please!!!
Thanks
Edit----------------------------------
Well, here it is what I did, I uninstalled everything, original swipe, swipe installer, I used "Cache Mate" to clear cache, "Titanium Backup" to clear dalvik cache, turned off my phone, turned it on again and installed the apk version posted here, before opening swipe I changed it to phone internal memory and problem of installing and using swipe is solved... but it still occupies more memory than the original swipe... wasn't it supposed to be smaller in size???

Wow, sounds like your device really went mayhem on you...
Maybe you could just try to install swype beta once on the normal way, you know webpage, email, link installer, install.
I dont really think that will help with the memory. it is really wierd that it still sucks up memory somewhere, even though you cleaned all caches...
Maybe you could use DiskUsage (Market, for free) to find the bad thing doing that.
Haha, it was driving me crazy but searching for another things I found the UOT Kitchen and I don't know why, but that was all, I made a theme and after flashing it with the "how to" guide in the kitchen page my internal memory came back...I didn't erase a single app, and all apps I have are the same size they where before!
Thanks for answering!

Still won't work. There are 2 other files that I know of that make swype associated to the ROM as a system app (and preventing an installation). I removed those as well (so I removed a total of 4 swype-related files from the android system) and it still couldn't install.
If you or someone else has successfully managed to install swype from swype.com on a swype-enabled ROM, you should write steps on how to do it.

When I remove an app I use Titanium Backup Pro to wipe the data before I uninstall it
Sent from my XDA app cuz I'm stalking your mom....
Figured it out from another topic. Swype can be installed PROPERLY now. Working great too. Here are the instructions. Just follow them exactly and you're set.
1.Remove libswypeCore from system/lib
2.Remove ANY files that have the word "Swype" in their name from system/app. There should be 2. One is swype.apk, the other is swypetips.apk or something like it.
3.Reboot into recovery, clear dalvik cache.
4.From TitaniumBackup, verify that you can't find swype anywhere in the installed apps. Make sure the option to show system apps is on. If you DO find anywhere swype, uninstall it.
5.Reboot your phone. It will take a WHILE, can be up to 10 minutes, that is normal.
6.Install new swype.
NOTE: To access system/lib and system/app you will need a root-based file manager such as Root Explorer. Root Explorer can be found on the market and is very useful all around.

Ugh I tried just now.
I couldn't find any apk or libswype but I deleted the libswypecore.so
And there is no API because I deleted it before...
I wiped the dalvik cache or something and it took lIke 5 minutes to bootup and when I try to install it says problem parsing cache.
Can someone with new swype give me their apk? I'm sure if I put that in system/app it'd work.
Also what is dalvik cache?
Someone please help. I'm bored of using the android keyboard
I can give you the old version as well as the new version. But from what it sounds, you didn't clean the swype files completely.
I'll update the steps for removing swype. I realized one or two of them are unclear. I'm also attaching the NEWEST swype I just installed in this post. Note that you need to push that into data/app, NOT in system. Also, you need to have cleared the old swype as my system/app and system/lib had NO files associated with swype.

thanks, i installed that everything worked but the language, and the whole point of swype, swyping.
i turned it on and it gave me a message saying the language pack is incompatible with my phone or something, i clicked ok, now when i swype, i get nothing, i can type normally but no swype.
also on swype settings it the language option is like grey so i can't click it...
EDIT:
nevermind, i got it to work.
for people with same problems, install the attachment from the post on page 1, last post.
normally install no need to put it on system/apps or anything
Now use your normal swype installer from www.beta.swype.com and it will tell you that your swype is unlicensed, it'll guide you on disabling swype, and it will generate a license (you need to make a login at swype.com) and then the language pack and everything is fully installed.
thanks for the attachment, couldn't have done anythign without it!

Is there any way we can get the new swype update incorporated into some of the ROMs? Or do we have to download it separately?

I would imagine it will get incorporated into future ROMs or included in an update to a current ROM. But if you want it now you will have to download it separately. Before you can download 3.0 you will have to switch your default keyboard to another keyboard then using a file explorer app such as root explorer go in and delete these four files: /system/app/swype.apk, /data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod, /dbdata/databases/com.swype.android.inputmethod, and /system/lib/libswypecore.so
swype 3.0 beta has drm/licensing stuff in it..so it will expire at some point if we incorporate as is into the roms (comrom/etc)
im hopeful we can get that stuff removed as was done for 2.29 that we were using in tsm roms
Okay cool. Thanks for the replies
Spent some time trying to get swype 3b installed.
The installer apparently requires the old version to be removed. So I did (Titanium). The installer went all the way through the download process, but actually installing gave me "was not installed." Gee, what a helpful error.
So I tried downloading an apk from the web and got the same error. So I tried using root explorer to install the apk manually (including setting permissions and changing owner). It FC'd repeatedly after reboot. So I removed it.
Then I tried adb install. That didn't work either. Then, realizing that Titanium didn't have a backup for my original Swype, I tried installing the v2 apk via adb, but that doesn't work either.
Ugh. Now I don't have Swype at all! Any ideas? Can someone tell me if there's a unique version for this phone or something?

Me too on the Swype problem. I had 3.0 working on the CM7 Alpha that jt built but that was a little to buggy so I switched to CommROM 2.0. Because of the way Swype is integrated into CommROM, it can't be easily replaced. Would love for someone to point me in the right direction on this.
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you're not supposed to download swype beta if you have a phone that comes with swype installed. I'm not sure why but I read that it won't work.
Choose a different keyboard. Uninstall old swype. Reboot, then install new beta.
Worked for me.
Yeah, I struggled with that issue last night (getting "was not installed" with 3.0 after removing 2)... but don't fret, it turns out the solution (which I discovered by mistake) is to literally just reboot your phone before installing 3.0. Hurr.
Keep in mind you still do have to manually delete /system/lib/libswypecore.so using Root Explorer or the like after uninstalling Swpye 2 via TB -- otherwise you will have problems.
Is there an echo in here?
And I did not have to manually delete any files and everything is working fine.
I used Titanium to delete the original, then used the installer without problems. That said, I don't like 3.0 and went back to the old version.
Working!
After seeing your replies, I deleted the lib file. I also ran
adb shell pm list packages
and found com.swype.android.inputmethod was still installed:
adb uninstall com.swype.android.inputmethod
then reboot.
then used swype little installer package.
and now it works!
Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy
Delete using Titanium, reboot, install using the standard Swype installer seems to work.
Keeps getting better with every release!!!
I had been having some issues with the latest Swype beta's auto-correction, in that when I was touch-typing for non-dictionary words (like acronyms, etc.), the auto-correction was doing its job and was 'auto-correcting'; but of course, I didn't want these words corrected! (I guess I was still operating under Swype's old rules which were when you touch-typed, it always assumed you were entering the correct spelling of whatever you had typed). So I turned off automatic auto-correct, and now I just have the word suggestion bar. This process seems to be working much better for me now.

Are there any other file managers besides root explorer that take advantage of root access?
I'm sure root explorer is good and all, I just don't feel like forking over 3 or 4 bucks or whatever for it - I don't like paying for apps, it's just one more thing that isn't a free download if you have to reflash your ROM or do a factory reset or something. Learned that lesson a few years ago with an 2nd gen iPod Touch.
That being said, there's plenty of free file managers out there, will any of them perform root operations such as deleting Swype.apk manually?
Once you purchase an app it is linked to your gmail acct. If you wipe or reflash it's still your's. Save yourself the headache and just buy root explorer.

I have a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini.
With a custom rom MiniCM7.
I have that rom for quite some time and liked it a lot.
Although today my apps that I installed are all gone.
Also the market place.
I tried to reinstall the market place but it doesnt appears.
When I look at my app list I see the app "com.android.vending" what is the market place if I am right.
Although I can't unstall it or open it (it also doesnt display the market icon).
How can I unstall or reinstall the market.
Please help, my phone is nothing without apps
Thanks for advance!
When I reboot my phone in recovery.
I can go to "backup and restore".
Then I click on "Advance Restore".
Then I press on the date when I installed my custom rom.
I have the following options:
Restore boot
Restore system
Restore data
Restore cache
Restore sd-ext
Will one of those restores help to solve this problem?

Well how will I be able to get root explorer without the market on my mobile?
I downloaded the market .apk file.
When I open it my phone is going to reboot (happens at the moment he tries to install it).
Also for the root explorer you need to pay, is there also some free one?
Or is it also able to do it from my PC (while my mobile is connected with USB)?

I haven't switched from SD card since I using the custom rom.
When I look at the application list and search for "com.android.vending" i see it with a dark gray android icon (not the market icon).
Within that icon also at the bottom right a smaller icon with standing "SD" on.
The application takes 204kB.
With a Cache of 4.99Mb that I cant clear.
I already tried to put my SD card out and in again.
Although my SD card seems to work fine, I can find all my pictures, music, etc on it.
EDIT:
I seem to still have version: MiniCM7-2.1.1
While there is already a version: MiniCM7-2.1.4
Would it solve the problem if I update the version by using the recovery?
So also again a "wipe data/factory reset".
Then "apply update from sdcard".
And after that Flash gapps.
Will this maybe solve the poblem?
Alright I solved it.
I updated the kernel from nAa-3 to nAa-6.
I also updated the ROM from CM7-2.1.1 to CM7-2.1.4 into recovery (so also "wipe data/factory reset").
And then it all was solved.
I want to thank you two guys for your time, and yes I pressed the thanks button at both of u

I had exactly the same problem, apparently CM moved all my apps to SD with me asking. It does so automatically.. See my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361073
I just can find anything that will work for me, tried everything, but it appears that GingerDX 12 is the most stable and fastest for me.
With all due respect to the developers, sometimes it seems that with every new release about the same amount of bugs are introduced as fixed..
Glad you got eyerything running...

Well I flashed RC1 and "market" automatically started installing/updating certain apps including superuser. Well I forgot to update the su binary first and when I tried it would get stuck on the "checking current version" stage so I rebooted my phone and opened superuser again and it worked. Successfully updated binary after su app updated. Right on.. Time to restore my data/apps via Titanium Backup Pro... Done. Okay so I figure all is okay until I go to go somewhere that I need to use my GPS.....Then I noticed navigation is gone....so is maps...YouTube...."Google Play" is the only Google app on my phone... If I try to DL any missing Google apps from Play Store, it just hangs and will not download. Also yes I am 100% positive that I flashed the gapps zip after the update. I've tried out virtually every ROM for this phone multiple times so I have enough experience not to mess something so simple up. Plus, I've flashed CM7 on my X2 like 50 times & have the install instructions memorized and yes I know they slightly changed for RC1...
Anyways...
My question is do I need to do a full wipe and start fresh? (Sbf 2.3.4/Reinstall CM) Can I just flash gapps zip again? If I do will I have to wipe big 3 or nothing at all?....How did this happen lol? Was it because I updated su app then rebooted & updated binary after?? Was it maybe because I tried to restore all apps including gapps via TBPro?? I forgot to uncheck them and just ran the whole batch operation.
I would have posted in DZKs topic but I can't post in android development.
I would just try to go for it and flash the gapps zip again, but I'm not home anymore and won't be again for probably a week at the least. Not comfortable doing it if I get something wrong. No phone for a week is no good!! Lol sorry for the long post any help or general insight is greatly welcomed

Nevermind....Phone started acting real laggy and buggy once I got down to around 20% battery life. I plugged in my phone and rebooted it. All Google apps are back now however they showed up in random order in my app drawer. Instead of being alphabetical like it usually is, it's completely random. XDA is on page 2 and easy tether is on the last page, lol
Edit: just had to re-sort apps by alphabetical order under go launcher app drawer settings. All okay now

Same apps were missing for me after I did a batch install in TB. I looked in Backup/Restore selection, second on top in the main TB screen and found them at the very bottom as uninstalled. I just selected them there and restored app plus data. My wifi is still iffy and I get a lot of process system force close notifications that dont seem to do harm when I click force close or 'wait'. I do get more FC on RC1. I can't remember if you talked about that last half in your thread. Since I'm typing on my phone I don't feel like going back to check so yyyaaaaa
Hmmm. In RC1 I get 2 force closes right off the bat as soon as it boots up. Says Process DPS Manager has crashed. I hit force close and another one pops up. force close that one as well and I'm all set. Don't usually get any more FC's. Only other thing is I can't get Opera browser to work on this ROM. It boots up and says opera then it just closes. No FC or anything. Oh well back to dolphin HD. Rebooting nor clearing apps data will get opera to work for me which I find weird because I was actually using it the day I flashed rc1. Hasn't worked since
Hahaha had to edit....soon as I posted this the XDA app FC'd

So, I've been unable to find any threads on this so I don't know if this is a common problem or not. My phone is rooted but I'm not quite sure if I'm using a mod, if I am it's a clockwork mod or something, I honestly don't remember what I used to mod it cause it was months ago. Anyways, I'm having problems downloading certain applications from the Google Store. It downloads it then when it's about to install it gives me an Error saying, "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card" and it only does this with certain apps, I'm able to download and install or update a lot of applications but it only does this to certain apps, I've tried turning my phone on and off, that does nothing, I would turn off my phone and take everything out but I'm not quite sure if that would work either.
I was wondering if there's a solution to this because I'm trying to download a new theme for my GO Launcher EX and it keeps telling me I cannot download it, it's done it to games that I've had before too, it's really weird.
Glad to know that none of you can help me.

Try creating the symlink for cache\download folder on your system partition
How might I do that?

MarketFix
I also had this problem when i am new to android.i definitely know that u don't use any aap 2 sd script and use default app2sd.go to your sd card(do it in pc) then go to folder .android-secure and delete a file (i don't remember the name of file)which extension is different of all file.
