yeah i just cant figure this. im use'n virusROM (senseless) n i can configure diff. keyboards but i dont see anywhere to enable them or a promt like "select input method" as w/ "Sense."
now i recently wandered onto SWYPE in "keyboards" which im pretty sure wasnt there b4 upgrade flash so i chose "tutorial" n WAS promted to choose a keyboard but couldnt do tutorial... well who cares...but after i chose swype n was promted in -"swype" not in "keyboards"- 4 tutorial i later went bak to choose another keyboard from tutorial n now i can do the tutorial but lost option to select a keyboard.
this all seems so stupid! how do i enable keyboards. this must be the ROM, right? I hadn't tried w/ stock b4 but have since lost my stock ROM cuz i didnt backup properly. i dont really want it back. i do have other ROMs n could always flash more but thats not the point.
Press and hold the text input field. You should get an option to select input method.

My eris trackball wont move down, it moves up and right but not left or down, n its keepin me from puttin any roms on since u have to scroll down to hit the flash from sdcard. Is there anythin i could do or am i stuck on my 2.1 cuz i want the kaosFroyo it looks way better.
I've seen a video on youtube on how to somehow fix a track ball by getting a piece of paper, and then turn your phone upside down facing the paper and rub the track ball fast but gentle on the paper. Do this until your trackball works. Some people tried it and it worked. I hope this fixes your problem.

Download the Rom you want and put it on the root of the SD card, install rom manager from the market and install the rom from there.

you'll have to update to clockwork mod recovery in order to use rom manager. rom manager should tell you this the first time you try and use it. if not when you open rom manager at the top is a selection to install clockwork.
ive tryed rom manager but it says im not rooted n i need the trackball 2 work i think im **** out of luck
try using volume buttons. they will move it up and down, and send to select instead of trackball, it tends to move.
RUU back to stock and activate ur warranty. Un-responsive trackball is one of the problems with the eris.that people are getting new phones by activating the warranty.. right now the most popular phones peple are receiving for replacement is the Incredible and Droid 2 since the Eris has been discontinued

Did Swype come on the atrix? I was dumb and never even looked. instead i downloaded the installer, tried to install, it said something about the install being unlicensed so i uninstalled it and tried again. It then told me the screen size was unsupported. So did i uninstall a pre-installed swype like an idiot? or is it just not supported at all?
If it did come pre-installed, how do i get it back? I did a full factory reset, and i'm not seeing it anywhere.
nope not pre installed. will have to wait for new beta version to support the atrix. I need swype too!
ok thanks, just trying to make sure i wasn't going crazy. I will miss it until support comes. Tried a few of the alternatives, and they just aren't the same.

Swype is on the Atrix guys!!!! Two ways to enable it....
1. Go to Messaging or Gmail, hold your finger in the box where letters normally appear. After holding for about 2 seconds a box appears, choose "Input Method", then select Swype.
2. Go to Settings, choose "Language & Keyboard", then click "input method", choose "Swype"

Yes, i understand that. We've verified i was an idiot and instead of just checking for swype i went and grabbed the installer to put it on myself. when i did this it flipped out over the pre-install (i didn't realize what was going on) This somehow removed the pre-installed swype. Even a full factory reset didn't bring it back.
trying to figure out how to get it back now.
Ok, this is too much
Support : Then select Input method
cegna09: my only option is "multitouch keyboard"
Support : I'm very sorry for the inconvenience Chris. The only option is to replace your phone.
Support : You can contact your service provider for the exchange program.
cegna09: seriously? Does Motorola not provide the stock software image to allow for a reflash?
Support : Please contact AT&T through: 1-800-331-0500 and they are open 24 hours a day - 7 days a week.
cegna09: ok, i will contact AT&T
Support : If you need any more information get in touch. Thanks from Motorola, bye!

I tried that. I did factory resets from both the settings menu and that method. The hard reset was actually what i tried first. My only option was to get the phone replaced, since motorola has no intentions of providing a stock ROM and flashing tool for alternate recovery.
i wish swype DID NOT come preinstalled... It comes with an old version and it popups the stupid popup when you change a word... I haven't tried, but Im fairly sure you cannot install the beta version if your phone comes preinstalled with swype. I wish swype named their betas differently so you could have both installed concurrently
you are correct, you can't install the beta, that is what got me into this mess. For what it's worth, swype doesn't support this screen size in the beta yet, so even if you could we'd be out of luck for a little while.
Someone atrix users posts swype.apk in this treads
OP, you could try deodexing your phone and replacing/removing the swype apk

Here is the swype from my telephone
Here it is. Might not install though sense it's not signed and all.....
Good luck.
And yea, do what RatTub says. It's a good idea to deodex first.

I have always been a CM7 fan once we got gingerbread support on the vibrant. I was looking at MIUI Roms this morning and they seem pretty awesome. So I figured I would flash one. I played with it a little bit and ended up getting irritated after awhile. I love the layout and how it runs and works.. but I think what bothers me the most is that I didn't have an app drawer. My question is "Is it possible to to have an app drawer with MIUI?" I tried changing it, but I just got so irritated after so long and decided to go back to CM7. Do people really just make a folder and put all their apps in it? I don't know about everyone else.. but I like to get on my phone and get to something I'm needing right away, instead of messing around with folders.. what's the deal with this?

Got another question as well... I am in a location that gets very little 3g.. to where pretty much if your holding the device wrong then you get only 2g.. but while on MIUI. I either get 3g, 2g, and i also get "g" as well.. but for some reason, I will b in the middle of a app using data and it will automatically go into SoS mode.. to where u can only use phone for emergency calls.. so then i gotta exit the app wait for a connection, then try again.
And dont start telling me i need to try a fresh start.. i always Odin before I flash a rom. I always do the steps the OP states step by step.. I have done a fresh start twice on MIUI and I get the same thing when it never did this before

Kinda obvious thing to say, but have you tried out different modems?
Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110500
no app drawer with standard launcher however you can create "Folders" to put your apps in that allows some semblance of sorting. like on your computers desktop.
they can be found by holding your screen till the widget menu pops up and dragging the folder widget to the screen of your choosing, you can also have multiple folders so for example you can have a media folder for your facebook,myspace,twitter etc, a media folder for your music and media players and well as sound enhancements etc.
as for the sos issue, try testing the ka7 and kb5 modems. just make sure you get the right ones ported specifically for new editions of miui/CM7
Hello all !
I searched my problem in the forums but its not mentioned here so I created this new thread.
When I had stock rom I loved to use swype but now I'm using CM7.2 and I installed swype and its working but whenever I want to type something I need to change Input method to skype.. it resets back whenever I open app like "messaging" next time.. How can I set Swype as my default input ? It always resets back to android keyboard.

First of all this should be in general section, not here. You might have moved swype to sd card. Swype should be in phone memory

Just downloaded the Swype beta apk on my S3 by registering. When I open the installer, it shows a page saying
Swype beta installer
Do you want to install this application?
Allow this application to:
etc
At the bottom there are 2 options, one to cancel and the other to install. Can't click on install. Can anybody help me out here?
And yes my security settings allow unknown sources and I'm unrooted.

No help?

Strange, I installed it yesterday (and then again this morning for the newest version).
Tried rebooting your phone?
I've just updated the installer. No issues. I'd advise you to download it again.

Basically, the "Install" option is kinda greyed out... And this is not happening for this apk only, I cant tap on install on any third party apk now. And I confirm I have "Allow from unknown sources" checked in the security options.

The S3 stock has swype built in. I'm on CM9 so I cant remember exactly but:
Go into keyboard settings > samsung keyboard > an option like continuous input. (its the one above changing to symbols by swiping)
Issue resolved.
Switched off the phone, switched it back on after 5 mins, and voila! Just love swype

Yes it's a swype like input when continuous mode checked.
But what about the swype's shorcuts? I need them and it's a part that made swype mandatory
I finally got my swype to reinstall on my Sensation 4G after a ROM update with ARHD. I had to download the installer again from Swype through the phone, and then it let me install.
