[Q] Swype having to be re-selected on reboot. - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems like every time I reboot my phone I have to toggle the swype/touch input to get swype to work. I'm running Das BAMF 1.7 remix currently but had the same problem on 1.5, 1.6, and 1.6.2. Anybody else have the same issue and know a solution?

True on stock too. I think thats just one of the swype beta bugs.

Thanks for the info. I rooted this phone after having it for only a day so I can't really compare. The issue might be with the booting process as a whole for input. Anybody with slide-it have the same issues I wonder...?

Is swype installed on your sd card? If so, it has to be loaded along with the rest of the sd contents after a boot. Move to the phone to fix it.

Swype can't be installed on the SD card. The option is grayed out.

Maybe be a silly question but do you have it enabled in the settings-Locale and text?
yeah, im using the swype keypad now.
Although when i try to actually swype, the finger trace is visible but nothing more happens

completely remove it, download the beta, install.
I've had this happen before.

Any way to change default storage

Hey guys I'm running the alpha 15 of CM9 and was wondering if there was a way to change default storage. On cm7 I used the ext SD card as my default storage and noticed there is no setting in CM9 like in CM7 that allows you to change default storage. Any way to do this? Also I know others running a stock ROM rooted would like to know if there us a way too. Thanks

I'm thinking that is something you might have to set in any app that uses the sd card. Seems like it would make more sense to have it done in phone settings though.
Some apps you can but preprogrammed games like gta 3 don't let you
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
You can move the files yourself. It's kind of annoying but that's what I do to get games working on a rom that switches the storage on me. (And to avoid downloading it all again)
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Well I would but not enough room lol. What can I say I love my games. Pretty much why I got the phone

Ive tried and tried with no luck, I keep getting parse error.
I had the same problem. Had to clear data from installer, then uninstall, then finally try again. After the second time it worked.
Over 10000!!! You bet I am.
yea same error here, but i got it to work by doing the same thing
On the Swype beta faq page it mentions the parse error. They say that it means the connection is having issues and recommend switching from data to wifi, or vice versa. They also say a third party browser may be interfering

You guys don't like the Trace feature integrated with Sense Keyboards? It's basically the same thing.

Similar ís not the same. For started multi language is not supported and is important for me, and the keyboard distribution is kind of different, plus Dragon dictations works great for me.

Self deleting apps

Does anyone else occasionally experience an app mysteriously vanishing after restarting your phone? It's not as frequent anymore but it will happen to me with certain apps.
I'm wondering if this is because somehow they aren't compatible with my 64GB microSD- IF that's the default save location or if anyone else is experiencing this.
Thanks!

First of all, apps can't be saved on the microSD card on this phone. Check my FAQs on that.
Secondly, I've heard of disabled apps re-installing themselves on our phone on reboot, but not the other way around. Can you tell us which apps are doing that?
Airdroid, Fatbooth, FartDroid, etc... you know.... important apps... lol. This is my second phone to do it. The XDA app used to do it too. Some others as well. Their icons still show in folders but when you click it says the app is not installed.

I've experienced the same problem. They will randomly come back to life, but it seems if apps are stored on what the phone thinks is the SD card rather than the internal storage, it has a greater tenancy to vanish.
I've had this happen a few times. I have not noticed whether they are apps I have moved to the phone storage area or not.
When I move them, they seem to be ok. That is until an update for that app, if I restart before moving it back it'll delete.

Last night I moved my apps from internal to phone storage to make more space. After a while, my phone died. When I turned it back on, guess what? 90% of the apps vanished from my phone. Here I am redownloading everything... is this normal or does my phone have problems?

That same kind of thing happens to me. ADW remembers the apps where there, but can't launch them.
Guys, do me a favor and call HTC. They have nooo idea about this bug.

Any commonality between you three who have seen this? One is using ADW launcher....
I might return and exchange the phone. No apps will save to phone storage and it keeps telling me I have insufficient storage in the internal storage.... Can anyone save to phone storage, restart and see if apps are still there?

Might be something with your handset I have 1.6GB on phone storage and haven't had any apps self delete. I have run out of space on the internal storage, 1GB there isn't much. My plan is to s-off over Christmas when work shuts down and see if any progress has been made being able to move apps to the external SD. There was some talk about it a while ago.
Thanks for the response! Perhaps I have an issue with my phone. If I move apps to phone storage they will be completely deleted upon reset.
When I click apps on phone storage it shows the apps that are really in internal storage but when you click the apps they say "move to phone storage". Very strange.
I'll do a factory reset and see if it helps the issue.
How many apps do you have on phone storage?

I hope so! I'm going to do a factory reset tomorrow and see what happens. If it's not fixed I'll replace it after Christmas that way they should have a fresh batch. My last Inc 4g had the same issue.

Well I just got a replacement..... same issue. I'm so bummed by this phone and HTC. Any suggestions for a new phone with an SD card slot? Verizon is about to hook it up. I like the DNA but I hear there's no SD slot.

Mms background

So I'm running the stock rooted deodexed and slightly modded rom from MCD and when I go into mms app and go to change the background all that comes up is the option to use an HTC one. It worked fine on stock. Am I missing something?

It's a glitch somewhere, sometimes it's there sometimes it's not. just do your normal thing and it will suddenly show up.
There have been several threads on this. My first dna it was there, returned for warranty issues and was given another new one and it was not there. Had ukb rom and it was there. changed to venom rom and gone again. frustrating.

To get the Gallery option to appear, add a folder named .data in /sdcard. Not sure why, but this fixed my this issue on my DNA. I found the fix somewhere on android central.
Hope this helps.
