First of all..
THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE SWYPE!!!!
Also, I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone...
This is just a zip file that can be used to install swype to a custom rom.
What is Needed...
1)The attached Zip file
2)Swype.apk and libswypecore.so
3)Clockwork Recovery (i tested using clockwork 3.0.0.6)
4)7-Zip (or any other zip utility that can place files into a zip without extracting)
How to...
1) Open up the attached file in 7-Zip
2) Place Swype.apk in the "app" folder
3) Place libswypecore.so in the "lib" folder
4) Place the zip file in your sdcard
5) Boot into recovery
6) Go to mounts and storage
7) Mount "system"
8) Go to the main menu and install the zip file
9) Reboot and go to any text field
10) Hold the text field until a popup appears
11) Click "input method"
12) Select Swype
If for some reason it does not work, go to the system folder using root explorer or something similar and make sure the permissions are as follows for both the Swype.apk and the libswypecore.so

yes, but my reason for posting it is because it contains the script to flash along with it being signed. this way the only thing missing are the files.

An easier way to do this, which is what I have been doing, is to simply use a File Manager with Read/Write (Root) privileges and copy the libswypecore.so file into your system/lib directory and then install the Swype.apk like a normal app. This way you can do everything without needing to reboot.
I installed by giving them my email getting the apk and installing...you could almost calk it average lol

can someone provide me a copy of swype.apk and libswypecore.so? Thanks.
Comment removed.
Didn't know it was against the rules to post the .apk.
My bad!
@aussiehairspray
If I'm not mistaken, I don't think this is allowed to be posted... Swype's rules.
I'm no admin but I just don't want to see you get in trouble.

You are not mistaken. Posting the swype apk and lib files is not allowed and is actually illegal

so quick question, how would I go about uninstalling this?
Swype FCs every time it tries to load.
Mytouch 4g CM 7.02
I'm getting force closes as well using the files posted here. I followed these instructions here because after installing via the sywpe installer beta everytime I rebooted my phone it wouldn't trace anymore. To fix this I needed to disable and reenable swype. So as of right now I'm still outta luck.
To remove swype though simply go into titanium and scroll down to swype and delete it.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Unfortunately swype force closes are not due to this zip and chances are it is the ROM. I would suggest trying fix permissions from recovery or ROM manager. Other than that I would not know what would be causing the force closes.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using XDA App
maybe i'm confused but i just went to swype.com and registered for beta and it works fine
is this different?
Before I ever tried the files here I used the beta installer that I registered and it seemed like everytime I rebooted it wouldn't swype anymore and the keyboard would flash like an error. I've been running cyanogenmod nightlies, currently on 61. I've tried fixing permissions before but it never corrected the issue.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I tried the Root Explorer method with the same results. No matter what I do to install Swype on any ROM other than CM7, I can't get the keyboard to "swype". I've even created a new account with swype to download it again with no luck. I'm close to using something other than CM7 as my daily ROM but I need Swype! Any more ideas?
Thanks!!
When it won't swype after reboot. Try selecting another board, type something, then go back to swype and slide. Used to work for me when I was using swype
this worked flawlessly! thanks
im running nightlies. i downloaded iced glacier for the original swpe .apk and libswpe files. just selected update zip from sdcard in clockwork.
forse closes, then i uninstalled and uses root explorer to copy both files, than i change the permissions, it worked but gave error about licencing, that this is for some other device. im using htc panache stock GB ROM.
than yesterday i realized new beta is out i re-registered and installed the latest beta which is ofcourse much better , only thing im missing is light colored theme of oribngnal swype.

I got the constant force close using the new swype 3.0 the way I fixed it was deleted it then right after I reinstalled it I rebooted in to recovery and cleared both caches and fixed permissions. I don't think rom manager fix permission is working right for this version.
Hey all i just wanted to ask is there any way 2 get the old text messaging program back instead of the one thats installed with this one i liked the stock Antrix one. And i know before u could say yes or no to install it but he changed the install methed and could not do that no more so if any one could help me please do so thanks <3
Well i fixed it i found this

For those like me who need corporate sync and like the blur universal inbox you can install just that portion of the moto bloatware instead of all of it.
** EDIT ** I'm adding a couple more applications now. Please, others jump in to do other applications because I'm out of time working on my Atrix for this week!
** WARNING ** I'm not an android dev and this process has only been tested on my phone. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
There are 3 files attached.
messaging.zip - restores original blur messagine apps, including corporate sync, txt messaging with balloon conversation mode, and the universal inbox. It does not have the messaging widget.
taskman.zip - if you liked moto's Task Manager app, this will restore it for you so you can kill tasks and uninstall like before GB.
gallery.zip - restores the moto Medial Gallery application. Note the GB version of Gallery will still exist and both will work.
Quick instructions:
* You will need CWM Recovery for this
* Follow CWM instructions exactly - especially the part about plugging into the AC adapter or it won't work!
**NOTE** this will also install the original blur txt messaging interface with the conversation balloon mode. Its all one application so no way around it that I know of.
1) copy one of the zip files (attached) to your sdcard root directory
2) run CWM according to instructions in its thread
3) after reboot into CWM select "Install zip from SDCARD"
4) select "Choose zip from internal sdcard"
5) scroll down to the zip file name (ex: messaging.zip)
6) select the file (power button) and run the update
7) go back to main menu and select "Reboot system now"
A few steps but doesn't take long. I just pulled these out of the gingerblur-bloatware.zip and figured out what file structure you have to leave in place for it to function.
Hope this will save people some time.

I think there's a bloatware restorer on the greyblur site. Try that.
Will that install it all back tho or will i be able to pic
well ill look at it and see if it can do only one thing
thanks i forgot about that
Alright so i found them in the files there how do i delete the new one and get this old one back on there? im so confused help!
Still have not figured it out some one help?
http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/d...-reinstall-deleted-system-apps-bloatware.html
That thread helped me how 2 install the files but i cant install them it tells me
Application not installed any clue how 2 fix this and remove the old one some thing? any one?
You need to download the messaging bloatware zip, reboot into recoverymode and use CWM to install that zip file... It's the same process as installing grey/gingerblur.
Well if i new where the messaging bloatware zip was i would try 2 get that
i know they have the full one with everything but is there one with only the messaging part? or some thing like that?
Well i tryed 2 just install the messager part and i soft bricked my phone just fixed that but still dont have the old messaging system
Go to the android development section and find the gingerblur thread (it shouldn't be difficult). Then go to the gingerblur website given in the thread and download the bloatware.zip. you will also need tenfars cwm recovery which is in the development section also. Then just flash the zip file using the cwm recovery guide. Make sure your phone is plugged into a wall outlet charger when you do this (not a computer USB port) or it won't work.

Hope it works on yours too.

Thanks. I will try it out. They really should bring it to the market, they'd make way more money than through OEM s
Works great so far, but have to say that each time you flash a new build (today Dalingrin released A0.6) you have to flash this file again.
Recommended is to place the file in your cminstall folder (I assume most have set a specific folder for all their flash files) and flash it each time you flash the new build & gapps etc.
I just installed the app and copyed the lib and apk files using Root Explorer and set the R/W to the same as everything else. If you just install the apk it will launch but force close when you try to create a new document.
I have been using OfficeSuite Pro 5 and liking it in the past. It was the only Office Suite that supported a tablet UI on CM7
been looking for this. thanks.

What do you mean? For me it worked out-of-the-box.
Even create and edit of documents.
Polaris Office - cannot edit
Hi all,
I have installed this package using the rootexplorer method.
It works well on my HP Touchpad, Dual boot with AOKP.
But I cannot edit the documents, I can create new and save. But there is no option to edit. It is like this package is designed for android devices with a menu button. i.e. open file , menu, edit....
Does anyone know a workaround or, have an ICS compatible package that displays the menu button?
Thanks.

Sometimes we can use them by copying apk to data folder. Just copy the apk file to "/data/app folder and sey the permission. And reboot.

Hi very_lie, need specifics, what method are you using- ADB? Are you rooted? What app- is it compatible with your device, app store(play/aptoide) will tell you yea or nay. Assuming you are rooted, use a good file manager, go into settings of the file manager, give it root permissions, and change mount system folders to writable, they will be read only originally. Find out where the app needs to go. For example, earlier today, I replaced talkback app because the version that came with custom ROM force closed. Google came out with an update recently that works for me. In file explorer, went to /system/app to find out what its called- talkback.apk. Downloaded v. 3.5 from aptoide(be careful), renamed it talkback.apk. go to /system/app, deleted older talkback.apk, go to data/dalvic cache and delete system @ app @ talkback.apk @ classes.dex Took renamed apk, copied it(from sd), just long press on the file and options come up, select copy. Navigated to /system/app and paste it there. Reset permissions, again long press hit permissions, will probably at rw-rw-rw, change to rw-r--r-- read write, read, read. Reboot. Upon reboot, may say android is upgrading-all is good-dalvic cache is building. Now with certain apps you will want to delete its data- in /data/data. For this app didn't need to. Also some apps can't be put in /system/app. On my phone HTC Evo 3d, ones like facebook, Twitter, translate and other google app can. Ones like Skype n dropbox cannot- they forced closed and can cause others to misbehave. So open up your app n see if it works. Go back into file manager, /data/data and make sure your app's permissions are rwxr-xr-x. Hope this helps, follow this same format when putting"forcing" app on data partition- /data/app

I've got a old version of APK editor pro , that I can use . Version 1.00 to bypass any install errors .. don't ask me how to get it though. Regards :angel:
Of course I could also have flash stock firmware again but I needed a simple solution to use the media I had available at that moment, only two Note 8 (mine and my wife's to extract the apk) and little 3g signal (when I had) to find a solution.
I appreciate the recommendations after having solved the problem but the object of my post was to thank for the help, the rest are anecdotes.

How to get it?
I guess it's called "Richnote." I'm wondering if someone could export that APK and upload it somewhere so that I can try and get it running on a Galaxy S4. I found http://koolwap.in/games_app/dld.php...ba/comlgeapprichnote-30200111-v32.htm&ext=apk, but the phone just says "application not installed." I have a notes backup from an old E970 that I'd like to view, but I obviously can't with the GS4 (the format is .rnt, whatever that is), and I don't have any other LG device to view them from.
Here it is.
I extracted the app from my phone using Stock 4.1.2
Its called Rich Note
Here is the
PHP:
[URL="http://www.mediafire.com/download/x483o5gtq3o8a8c/com.lge.app.richnote.apk"]link[/URL]
I have this one. Copy to system app and set permissions. Doesn't work with kitkat in ART mode.
https://app.box.com/s/qfxao2m9rcctp2b03eom
Thanks guys!
Unfortunately, for both of those APKs, the phone just says application not installed.
It won't install as a normal app. You need to copy it with a root explorer to system apps, set permissions and reboot.

That probably explains it. The phone currently isn't rooted.
Regarding Perfect Viewer, it's unable to find the "backup.rnt" file that Richnote made during the export, even if I tell something like ES File Explorer to open that file with Perfect Viewer.
So there's no way to install that app without rooting?
So I rooted, copied one of the two APKs that were posted here into /system/app, changed the permissions to match the other APKs that I saw, rebooted, and nothing new showed up. Do these APKs need a matching OPEX file? Both of the Richnote APKs do this.

The one I posted shows up as "notebook" in app drawer and it doesn't have an odex file. Not sure if that would keep it from working on an odexd ROM. It is a modded apk. and I am pretty sure I found in a Samsung forum.
Oh...and googling .rnt it says it is files for CNC machines, but there are some free programs to open them.

Ah... I'm really confused, then. I tried putting some random APKs in /system/app and they ended up showing up after a reboot, so I'm not sure what's happening with the APKs that you guys posted.
I might just go to a T-Mobile store to open up my Richnotes backup and email all of the text to myself.
This is where I got it from downloaded the zip and pulled app from it. Does it look like the same note app you are trying to get?

I'm not sure what it looked like before (I barely used the phone), but I don't think that that's it.
I think I skipped out on your APK (the first two that I mentioned, one was from Alex_XV6700, the second was RichNote_a003.apk from a stock AT&T ROM for the E970). I put it in /system/apps, and the app works, but it's a different app overall, unfortunately. Thanks anyway.
I think the idea of going to a store to get the notes would be the easiest.
