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!

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.

Yeah 2.29 very much expired, once a recalled how to uninstall the old and reinstall the new I'm running 3.6 now myself and even if it expires in awhile its a five minute process to go one from to the latest

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.

So I recently rooted my Photon and in all the excitement I uninstalled swype and installed swype 3. Well I didn't back it up like I wanted to so now I lost it. I would like to get it back just in case becuase I am getting FC with swype 3 and I would rather not do a hard reset if I don't have to. So question is anybody on here have the photon themed swype apk file?

Try this. Download the CM5 from Yay's thread in the dev thread. Using 7zip remove everything from the package except the swype apk
I had the same FC issues, and the recommendation in the post above will work like a charm. I grabbed it from the system dump that is posted but CM5 should work just as well.
If you really want Swype 3.+ You can wait for an update which they say is coming soon but we will see lol. Otherwise if you search around you can find a stand-alone version that will install without the swype-installer app and work like a charm. I couldn't figure out the FC issues for the beta and that was the only way I could get Swype 3 to work.
So that you don't loose the original you can put it back in the /system/app/ folder and rename it to swype.bak and you'll still be able to install swype 3. Then if you need the orginial back to return your phone or whatever just uninstall swype 3 and rename that file to swype.apk
that did it thanks alot
Ok I love some of the features of the ICS rom I installed but most are real debloated. I like some of the stock apps but cant figure out how to install them.
I know they are not odex but the apk wont install. I dont remember but thought it needed and associate file. Little help.
I asked the same question in a post last week and have not heard anything. I really need smart actions and mobile hotspot to work but have found no luck getting the apk files to work.
Hey guys since i install the new update i found that we dont have the swype key function like before. What is the problem or cause of it?
I thought they took that function away. If you want Swype, go get the original. I believe you can still sign up and they'll send you the download link, and you just install it like a normal APK.
Question answered.
