try reinstalling it again. but delete swype.apk from root explorer or you can just uninstall it... after that install swype again and wait for it to generate license( don't do anything).

I am having, the same problem. I had it working before i upgraded to the newest version of swype.

Do what this guy said... however a little more detailed:
Delete the Swype.apk file in System/App/ using root explorer. Once you do that, re-install using the installer utility.
You should be able to license at that point.
Edit: I did have an issue once where it was trying to add the license file to one of the com.swype folders in Data/Data/. If you do the steps but still can't license, go into that folder and give R/W permissions to any com.Swype folder.

Honestly, Just google Swype Beta, Sign up, enter your info. You can then download Swype installer and then you can use Sywpe. Version 3.0 just came out a few days ago.

this didnt work for me too

Try this,
1. Uninstall swype, swype installer, or any left over cache
2. Search for any swype files or lib and delete them
3. Reboot
4. Install the apk attached
5. Log in, choose swype english, install, follow the directions on there until it's finished. Otherwise it won't license it if you don't follow all the directions from the app
http://db.tt/2GoUggF

I think the way I got it to "disable" Swype so it could license it or whatever was to just switch to the other keyboard momentarily.

well anyways im having the same problem but in simply honey 3.8

tried this, but it still won't license. I made sure i hit swype english. any suggestions?

If it is installed, go to settings, language and keyboard, uncheck Swype, then open Swype Installer and have it license it...let me know if it still doesn't work.

Swype Beta is open again

For those who been waiting to get into the beta, it's reopen to all. If you have the factory One still installed, you will have delete the swype apk, and the swype lib file. Reboot and install the swype installer and so on.

Just note this:
If your phone came pre-installed with Swype
DO NOT download this beta (it won't work)

**Edit** Like others stated, you will have to uninstall the swype that came pre-installed before using the Beta. (I was already a beta user....)

all u have to do is uninstall the default one. I'm not having any problems.
Just curious, but since we MyTouch owners already have swype, what would be the point of joining the beta?

True, just use root explorer to move it over then reboot. Benefits would be to have the most up-to-date version and one with a voice button.

Some of us running CM6 lost swype, so this is the perfect alternative to getting swype back other than the ADB method.

U have to be rooted. Follow the first post. Delete the swype apk and the lib file, reboot, then install the beta
I think that may be the issue I was having replacing swype, I didn't delete the lib file. I may give it another shot tonight.

I have done everything the instructions say and during the licensing the Swype process "com.swype.android.inputmethod" stops unexpectedly.
I am rooted...i deleted the swype apk, the lib file and rebooted. I then installed it and I continue to have this problem.

Does anybody know if registering for the beta will interfere with the preinstalled version from working/authenticating? Or does the preinstalled version not need to to authenticate?

I don't why u would want to go back to the preinstalled one, but all u need is the apk and the lib, there's a thread here if u didn't back it up. There's no authentication
Am I suppose to be using the swype installer for this? That may be causing the problems.

OK, then I'm stumped again. Even when I try installing from a apk, it says it's going to replace a current application. I don't get that because I thought I removed swype. How can it replace something that's not there?
Update: After reboots and file deletions...it was finally able to authenticate. I don't know the exact steps, but it working now. Thanks for everyone's help.

Swype: Parsing could not be installed

This is the first time i've EVER and i will say EVER encountered this issue (for me of course)
I deleted swype.apk from system/app
deleted libswypecore.so from system/lib
rebooted (like 3 times)
and when i click on swype installer, login, and choose SWYPE FULL to install
after a while it says "parsing error not installed " something in that area.
What can i do to make it actually work?
Currently i have no swype, and without swype, my life is ruined.
a bad download, swype tweeted they uploaded the incorrect full version.
Also, why in the world are you using the full version? You only speak/need English. The lite version should work no problem.

thanks for the tip, but its not working for the english/spanish one either.

Anyways, are you saying that they tweeted neither of the swype *full AND english/spanish* don't work?

so you tired the new updated fixed version? What rom are you using? Couldn't you put swype in that build and then flash it? Just trying to think outside the box is all.
Yes, and i'm using that Sweet Honey one.
Uhm, okay so i did TRY to "think outside the box"
I had a previous version of swype i kept on my SD Card.
I installed that.
Went to Swype Installer.
It recognized the swype version
i logged in.
Then it said "registration failed"
I have the swype keyboard, but no swype gestures or library.
I request that someone goes to system/lib/
and finds libswypecore.so
copies theirs, and gives it to me, so i can use it.
It would be VERY appreciated!
You do realize any tie to swype needs to be removed, then reboot... You can't install swype beta when you already have swype.
Correct.
As far as i know, and this has worked before...
Removing the apk from system/app
and the lib file from system/lib
and rebooting
removes swype.

Go to root explorer then the root directory. Search swype, delete all references. Reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, install the beta.
Edit: not the sd card, just the system files.

Turns out me not uninstalling swype installer was the problem :O
Must have had some corrupt data. Usually it will auto update if it's an older version that may cause a problem.
The beta doesn't auto update, you have to open the installer.
The installer I meant..when you open it the installer will update to the latest version then you can check for swype updates.
I had the same issue. Make sure you reboot your phone after you remove the files, then make sure you use the stock browser to download the installer, don't use skyfire or opera or any of those. I had the same issue when i was using skyfire. used the google browser and it worked fine. The website says not to use certain browsers or it won't work.

I can't seem to install the new Swype. I rm'd Swype.apk from /system/app using ConnectBot. When the installer runs, it prompts me that it's a system app. When I select install, I get a green check mark and "Application not installed."
Are there any other files that I have to delete for it to install correctly?

Yeah there is a file or two in system/lib you gotta delete. I remember one but cannot find the other one. So Im stuck where you are too.
*edit Nevermind, you gotta reboot after you uninstall those two files [the apk and the libswypescore or whatever its called.] Then after reboot the new apk will install. Im now on the latest 3.6.84.etc whatever the version number is

I had gotten to the same point. So I copy and pasted a Swype apk from an old Rom I still have (SC 2.9.2) to my system/app to see if that would work but it didn't take. Then without removing the apk, I tried running the installer again and it took. Not sure how or why but I've got swype back.

UnNamed 2.2.1 Swype Problem

I've searched all over the i777 threads to find the answer but didn't, so here goes my question.
A couple of days ago I rooted my i777 and installed UnNamed 2.2.1. Love the ROM! This morning, I got a pop up about Swype, it wouldn't work anymore and to go to beta.swype.com for more information.
Of course I couldn't uninstall Swype and couldn't install the new beta, so I'm stuck without Swype, and that sucks!
How do I get Swype back?
uninstall swype with some sort of file explorer or ti backup. redownload swype beta installer apk, follow instructions....
TA DA you have swype beta again, at least thats how it always worked for me
I'm a bit of a noob so have no idea how to go about uninstalling Swype using a method other than normal...
I had the same issue. Thanks for posting the question and answer!

we all start somewhere, TiBu is useful, comes as a free version to test it out, i believe it lets you uninstall system files in the free version. otherwise some are known to use (file explorer es)??? i think thats it. any program that lets you get to the system files.
system->apps->scroll around till you find the swype file and delete

I'm having the same problem, however, when I try and register on the swype site using dolphin and web the checkbox for terms and agreements isn't showing up so I can't get the email to download the installer. Are there any workarounds or alternate means of getting the installer?
*edit* I was able to get the swype installer, but I still can't register with the site to login and run their program.
*update* I'm not sure what I did wrong the first time, but I tried the other method in the post and it worked; after I flashed to an older rom and back. For whatever reason out kept force closing on me the first time.

Thanks! This worked for me too. I actually used the Swype beta installer since I had previously signed up anyway.
Just curious: Anyone know why this happened now? And whether this only happened to the UnNamed ROM or others?
I believe it happened to all roms with Swype pre installed on them. Since unnamed is based off of a stock model, that's why it was affected.
