Latest Swype APK (1.56...)for our HVGA device? - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Swype just released another beta, version 1.56.30.7625.t100, that works much better for me than previous versions. I downloaded the one from [MOD EDIT: WAREZ] for my nexus one and it works great, but it doesn't work on my eris due to the different screen resolution. In that thread someone mentioned looking elsewhere on xda for a HVGA friendly version, but I couldn't find one. Anyone know where I can find one?

If you're a developer, you can open your working Nexus APK, swap out the keyboards for the HVGA keyboards from the old Eris/Hero version, re-sign the APK, and it will work on your Eris.
Even easier: Copy assets/files/license.dat from the old working HVGA one (1.25) into the new one, then re-sign.
I'd post a finished one here, but I think they're banning people who post copies of Swype.

Swype
I've been using Swype for about 5 hours now on my Droid ERIS and I've had absouloutly no problems with it at all.

I got the updated beta email from swype and tried installing with their installer, but after installing it gave me an error message about not having permissions to install it. When using it, it gave me another message saying "The Swype package you installed is configured for another device and will operate with limited functionality. Please contact Swype about this issue." and will only work with touch typing. I'm guessing this is because I'm rooted and running a rom ported to the eris.
So it appears I now have a different problem...
thenestor, I'd like to try making and re-signing my own apk, but I don't even know where to start. Could you give me some direction?

I tried to create my own apk, and it almost worked, but swype went into an endless loop of force closing. What I did was renamed both 1.56 and 1.25 as zips, moved the keyboard folder from 1.25 to 1.56, then used some auto signer bat file I found here to re-sign it, then changed the name back to an apk extension. I think there wasn't a problem with my process, but with the transfer of the keyboard files. Perhaps I needed to copy more than just the keyboard pngs?

Forget about moving the keyboard and use the other suggestion instead. Way easier. Get someone's copy of the hvga version of 1.56 (try the Hero cdma themes and apps forum), and copy the license file from your working 1.25 into 1.56. Then auto-sign the apk and try it.

I just tried this and I thought it was going to work, but after clicking install, it said installing for several seconds then gave up and said application not installed. The 1.25 version I got the license.dat file from installs and works just fine, and the 1.56 version I put it into would install before adding the license file, but only work with tapping, giving the wrong device error message.

No working 1.56 swype for the Eris yet?

Did you remove META-INF and then auto-sign the APK? You can use this to auto-sign:

I'd have to PM way too many people. This way, whoever's quick will get it.
Remember to uninstall the old version first. To verify that you're running 1.56, swype the word "wont" without an apostrophe. If it automatically changes to "won't", it's 1.56.

Good to know man. Thanks again!

1.56 is nice! Seems really smooth.

Tested and works

How would i modify these files to work with wvga resolutions? I tried exchanging the keyboard pngs the swyperef files from the hvga to wvga but swype force closes repeatedly when i install the modded apk.

So I installed the apk and enabled swype in my text input settings and swype never comes up when I bring up a keyboard. Seems like HTC touch input overrides swype. Any help would be great.

long press in a input box, and the input box after you have enabled swype. A box will pop up that says input method, just select swype in that.

A long press on an input box gives me a truncated Input Method box with no selections...thus no keyboards at all!

[Q] T-Mobile Vibrant Avatar And Sims 3

I recently switched roms and lost the Avatar launcher and the Sims 3.apk.
I know you can open Avatar through the gallery but that's not as good for showing off.
Can anyone send me a link to download them, or maybe rip them off your device?.
I really miss them.
There are many ways to solve this.
First, is search the forum.
Second, know something about his, download a stock rom and pull it for yourself.

Is that Bionix a Froyo build?
I've posted a modified Avatar.apk that looks for the movie in the proper location on Froyo ROMs. It's tested on Onyx ROM, but should work on any Froyo ROM. It's here if anyone still looking for a workaround about this and the apks posted above don't work for you.
On avatar it says application not installed...? Also when I download it where does it download the file?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I get a file not found when launching the avatar apk. I'm running macnut12. Hmmm, maybe I deleted the movie in the internal sd by mistake. Reverting back from a stock froyo (e.g. Eugene's unofficial froyo) through Odin should fix this issue. Am I correct?

Is that directed at me? Do you mean on your phone? Downloads from the web should end up in a folder called Downloads on the internal sdcard. From there copy with root explorer or adb to the proper location (/system/app)
Sims 3
When I had this issue I had lost the entire Sims 3 game and not just the launcher. The second post only includes the launcher apk, so I will attach both. I am only reattaching the launcher just in case the one posted somehow does not work with the launcher posted prior.
FYI - I pulled these from my stock dump I made before I loaded my first custom ROM, and from what I have heard they will work ONLY on the T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant SGH-T959 and nothing else.
It may not matter, but I think it is best to install them in order. Also since the max upload on apk (for me at least) is 8Mb and the game is 74Mb I am putting them into an archive first and doing an external link, so you will need 7zip or something similar.

These are standard APK files. Basically they are Android installer packages. What to do with them or how to install them are basic aspects of using Android. If you plan on using an Android device as anything beyond a basic consumer device you should take the time to understand these basics because putting them here is beyond the scope of this thread.
This should help.

So do you have a T-mobile Vibrant SGH-T959? It absolutely will not work if you don't.
Did you install both APK files in the correct order for Sims 3?
Are you using a custom ROM? It may not work in all ROMs. If you are using a AOSPish ROM like Macnut I don't know if it will work, because AOSP is built from the (Android Open Source Project) and not from Samsung/T-mobile firmware.
I have only tested this to work on Bionix and Auxra ROMs myself.
I have a samsung vibrant... I am using android 2.2 i have no custom rom installed.. do i need to rename it are something. what is the order of the sims 3 apk. can u list a step by step instruction list on how to do this..

Something is wrong with your statement. Maybe I should have been more explicit in my questions. This only works for US T-mobile Vibrants. It is an exclusive item that was (non-exclusive version now available in the market for $4.99 http://www.appbrain.com/app/the-sims™-3/com.eamobile.sims3_na_qwf) only available on US T-mobile Vibrants. This package only restores Avatar and Sims 3 for those who lost it, it does not provide it to those that should not have it.
Here are the problems with your statement:
You can not be using a stock firmware and also be using 2.2. Sorry you have to pick one as T-mobile has not pushed a OTA 2.2 out yet. This is not for Bell customers or other non United States phones.
There is no reason for you to have lost these packages if you are not running a custom ROM as they are not uninstallable.
So as you can see, there is something very fishy with your story. If you are just confused and not lying about your situation then you are running a custom ROM or you would not have lost these. In this case try re-downloading the files, use the link in my first post (Post #13) and you would have to be really confused to not figure out the order to install because they are numbered. If it can not parse these then either your download is corrupt, you are missing one of the two installs, or phone is not a United States SGS-T959.

Ive used apk manager and ninjamorph too but this one is weird. Everytime I push to system/app it either disappears or the stock green one shows up. I finally got it changed a little but its the older version (idk how it became the older version considering I used the newer version and changed png) and its still mostly green. Is there another apk I must change? Thanks for the help!

the newest Market is 2.3.3 make sure thats the one your working with...
From reading a few other themed ROM sections, lots of people with themed ROMS are seeing their themed market apk revert back you the green market.
One suggestion was deleting the market updater apk, clearing ur updates and cache in the themed market apk, and then re-pushing the themed market apk back to system/app.
This worked for me when I was using gingerRED.
Goodluck.

The version I have is 2.21 & how do I uninstall updates?
Here, this is 2.3.2 CWM flashable, neon blue market. It will not update and change back to green unless you want it to. I already skipped two updates and very happy since it didn't change. You might have to reboot a couple of times before it changes and if it doesn't wipe data for market and reboot.

I know the installer sucks but there is no other way. you have to get the latest version installed through it and then get it licensed otherwise it will not work at all. and you also need to install the full version which is greater than 10mb.

There are various modded versions of swype floating in the web. I have a slimmed down version of Swype 3.6xxx with only Polish and English languages which takes only about 2.8 mb and not 10 + MB. Use google or maybe some local android forums in your language.
Actually a while ago you could get all the modded versions of swype from xda but then Swype people started moaning and posting links to swype was banned on xda.

You need to uninstall previous Swype versions in case you want to update or when the licensing breaks. Then use the Swype Installer again.

MIUIwiz still the best.
I'am already using Brigo's MIUIwiz version. Thing is, MIUIwiz is jerky @ 667 performance. I purposely test which lancher really fly at 667. And MIUIwiz does not, its still jerky no matter what preferences I select. But Tancent is really fast even @ 667. Tancent looks the best from the three. But its true they all feel suspicious. MIUIwiz, ported by our guys, safe, stable, complete package.
Hey i just noticed this! u guys having trouble with tancent? I' ve installed it perfectly and I dont see 'everythig' chinese, just 2 icons, a clock widget (although u tap on it and enter ur City name in English.) and folders named in chinese (which you can edit and name them in English) besides those two strange app icons i dont see anything written in chinese.

LOL it wont work at all
Reasons:
1: open the apk - you wont get a values folder without decompiling
2: the compiled xmls are binary xmls while the decompiled ones are normal (readable)
3: thats it!
Anyways thanks for replying

I meant copy them from the translated apk this one.

Black Stock keyboard

I got tired of seeing the white and grey keyboard and didnt wanna use the Gingerbread keyboard cause of the small buttons. So I themed the stock one a little bit. Thought I would share it with the community.
Using root explorer, copy to /system/app. Change permissions to rw-r-r, reboot to xrecovery, clear cache and dalvik cache, Reboot, Enjoy
[EDIT]
added odexed version - not a flashable zip. Use same method from above
oh nice! saves me doing it i was just about to start doing my own one lol!
Something i didn't know how much i need it! thank you man
I followed your instructions but it keeps force-closing every second.
I'm on MiniCM, anyone experiencing this?
Change the name of it to the name of your keyboard before you move it and it will over write.
(NOTE)
Not all roms have the same name for the keyboard

try deleting LatinIME.odex
Edit: don't have to rename the textinput-tng to the existing keyboard since the package name is different anyway... (?)
Oh he is using an odexed rom. I dont why I didnt think of that. Ok I will odex this apk and post it as well for anyone using odexed ROMs.

Well most phones already have the stock Eclair keyboard or GIngerbread keyboard. My rom is Gingerbread 2.3.7. So I know this will work if anyone already has either keyboard in their ROM. Ive swapped around to all three keyboards. All worked. and I know the icons are hdpi. They look a lot better on my phone then mdpi. And they get resized by android anyways. I left the characters bigger so they can be seen better. Only notice two characters that hang over a litte bit. Neither causes any issues though. BUT, I guess I could change the icons to mdpi and resize the characters if anyone wants it done.
Thanks for the feedback

Can you make some glasses? I mean transparent 75% maybe.
I will definitely try. I been thinking about a transparent one for a few days now. Cant find icons for it. So I will have to make or convert some. Might take me a day or so but I will get it done
Ive installed this keyboard. But the black theme only works in portrait. Why is it? Thanks.
