Ok so this is what you do if you are getting force closes, OR you are getting the message that swype is already preinstalled and you can't update the beta (this will work if you have 3.25 and can't update or FUBARed 3.26, or should. It worked for me):
a) Grab yourself a copy of Titanium Backup, free version works just fine.
b) Open Titanium Backup and backup BOTH the installer and Swype (3.xx)
1) In Tit. (giggity) Backup delete both the installer and Swype (3.xx)
2) Go Download the new swype beta installer http://beta.swype.com//android/user/login/
3) Go ahead and install the installer, and once done, install Swype from that installer.
Now once swype is successfully installed you are going to reobtain your dictionary from your original install. You only need to restore the installer if there is a problem with it or something.
4) Restore Swype 3.xx and when the prompt comes up you select (Data Only). This is important, we dont want to install anything but the app data, like settings and most importantly your dictionary.
Now, everything should be working perfect. You should have the latest Swype, and your dictionary. This should work for every future update too. Let us know if this worked, it worked for me!

i did this at begining, and after wipe (installer and swype) i did a reboot
and then swype install perfect, as a note, restoring data from TB will bring the dictionary and some settings but will override (with no option to bring back) the languages, for example before the data restoring i have 5 languages to choose, after data restore i have 2 (the original language of my previous version) i guess "clicking" update in updater will bring the other languages.

Is this a newer version of the beta? They have had an older beta out for a while, just curious if this is different?
Yeah its the new one, 3.26
Now it has an updater and the layout change

Actually I do. I went and renamed the three stock swype files to .old. I rebooted and then downloaded and installed the beta. All I got was FC's when I tried to use Swype. Am I missing something?

I renamed all three, rebooted, installed and downloaded the beta, and got nothing but FC's. I'm running SenslessROM 2.3.7.
I uninstalled my current swype, downloaded and installed the new swype. Everything worked fine until I rebooted. I now get constant swype force closes. I tried wiping data for the app as well as cache and davlik in recovery and it still crashes. Any ideas?

Same thing happened to me. I uninstalled with titanium. Rebooted. Made sure Swype was nowhere in the applications. Download and install Swype. I had done issues with super user, so updated, then uninstalled Swype, then rebooted, then installed again and it worked. Don't know why it was being such a whore to install.

AHH HA! Duplicate these steps (backup and restore process) and it will work as I described, INCLUDING after a restart. It looks like there was a minor update AFTER this update.
So, do this as of 6:30 AM MST 10/21/11 and everything should work great, you will have the latest swype, and your dictionary saved from a previous install. Ta Da!

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.

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.
With the newest market update, I am constantly getting force closes with it. I am running CM7 (2.3.5, kernel 2.6.35.7) and the market version in question would be 3.1.3. I have tried clearing the app cache and uninstalling the update. I also tried using one of the old market apks, but it just updates and I am back to square one.

Same here. I a tually have a backup of a MIUI.us ROM loaded with all my app's. I load that and do update any apps needed. Use Titanium to backup the update. Then reload over to my CM7 and restore the app's freshly updated. Its a pain but I don't know what else to do for now.
I just noticed today that the Market Feedback is version 2.3.4, which I wonder if is related to the kernel version.

That was the first thing I did. I even made sure to wipe my phone 3 times. All I did was install nightlies 176 (then also did the same for 177/178) and first thing I installed after setup was the new v3.1.3 market. It still FCed. So I wiped again and tried v3.0.27 and now it FCs. Which is confusing the crap out of me I can't go backwards.

Actually had to go back to the 03/07/2011 version of GAPPS. I flashed that under root. Then fixed permissions. Rebooted and opened the old market. Agreed to the terms. Sat and downloaded ROM Manager (just picked a random app to see if it would crash). Downloaded and installed fine. Closed the old market. Noticed my launcher icon changed from the old market icon to the new one. Opened the market again and it had updated. Checked "My Apps" and was finally able to update my needed apps.
On a side note I opened up Titanium Backup PRO and noted three apps that were new.
- FOTA Kill v1.0
- Google Backup Transport v3.0
- Talk v1.3 (no idea why that's a new app)
Haven't rebooted yet, but that's a step in the right direction at least....

How to Install Swype Beta on the Droid X2
Guess I spoke too soon. I just installed the beta a couple days ago. Must not have rebooted since then because I rebooted tonight and was welcomed with constant force closes. I did manage to get it working though.
Uninstall Swype again. Then reboot into CW recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache. Reboot and install it again. No guarantees but it worked for me.

Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Well, guess I don't know what to tell you then. Mine is still working fine after several reboots now. The only other thing I can think of is if you are converting it to a system app after it's installed. I tried that and it worked fine until I rebooted. Had nothing but force closes after that. Converting it back to a user app didn't fix the problem. Had to uninstall and reinstall it again to get it working again. I tried it several times and each time I installed it, it worked fine through reboots but as soon as I'd convert it to a system app, it was nothing but trouble. I finally just gave up on it and just left it a user app. So, if by any chance you are coverting it to a system app after installing it, try leaving it a user app and see if that works for you. Other than that, I'm not sure what else to tell you.
How do I leave it as a user app?
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Look in your /data/app folder. If you see com.swype.android.inputmethod in there, then it is already installed as a user app. If it's not there, look in your /system/app folder for it. If it's there, it's installed as a system app. Either way I don't really know what to tell you. The first time I installed it, for some reason or another, it got installed as a system app. I knew right away because I was prompted with a message asking if I wanted to replace the swype that was there already. Not sure why that happened because there was no swype apk in the /system/app folder at the time. I had uninstalled it and checked and there was nothing there related to swype. Anyway, I let it install and it worked fine until I rebooted. So, after rebooting and all the trouble, I uninstalled it using TB and reinstalled it a second time. The second time I installed it, it installed as a user app (go figure) and worked fine until I used TB to convert it to a system app. Only difference for me before the first time installing it and the second was, before installing it the second time, I booted to recovery and wiped cache and Dalvik cache.
Are you sure the swype.apk is gone from your /system/app folder before you install the beta? All I can say is uninstall it, then look in either location for the file to make sure it's gone, then reinstall it. Sorry I can't be of much more help but I really don't know what to say.
I've never had a single problem with Swype beta and this is how I did it.
Use titanium backup to uninstall the pre installed stock Swype.
Reboot
Install Swype beta installer, run it and setup Swype beta.
Enjoy the best keyboard out there.
Cheers
Sent from my Android device.
i have done it at least 3 times and everytime i back up swype with titanium uninstall it, boot into recovery wipe dalvik then boot back up and reinstall it, works fine.
I love having Swype installed on my RAZR but I like the BETA version because they keep adding more and more cool features. The newest includes Dragon Dictate which really works great! It also now learns your writing style and improves it's predictions.
Problem is if you have Swype pre-installed on your phone you can't install the new BETA, until now.......
Here are the directions to remove your stock Swype and install the BETA:
** warning - changing the wrong files can brick your phone so be careful! **
First, your RAZR must be rooted.
Using Root Explorer:
1. Change your default input method to anything other than Swype.
2. Mount file system as R/W
3. Delete (or move/rename) \system\app\swype.apk
4. Delete (or move/rename) \data\dalvik-cache\[email protected]@[email protected]
5. Delete (or move/rename) \system\lib\libSwypeCore.so
6. Reboot
7. Download and Run the latest Swype Beta installer
If you get FC's after installing Swype BETA then remove Swype and the Swype Installer under Manage Apps, re-boot and install the BETA again. Seems to be some stuff left over from the old version that can cause this problem.
Enjoy!

Did you ever figure out how to uninstall it? I'm stuck at the same place,ie FC's after following the installation steps
EDIT: Do anyone having the same issue...
FIX: Move or Delete the 3 files (Renaming did NOT work for me- caused FCs)
I did this previous to this post and I just removed the swype apk in system\app and com.swype??.inputmethod stuff in data, didnt touch dalvik cache or the lib.so stuff. I think if you change you keyboard method away from swype and delete the apk(in system\app and if its in data\app too", clear the swype data and even dalvik perhaps, then install the new swype.
All manually of course with es explorer or capable root file explorer.
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...

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

2) uninstalled swype via TiBu
3) Reboot into download mode (CWM)
4) wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot
5) install downloaded Swype APK

This worked perfectly for me. Thank you so much! Life is much better now that Swype is back.
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.

Is there a way to put the default UnNamed Swype theme back on to the current beta? Lost it after I reinstalled.
Yea use either tibu or nobloat to uninstall Swype

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.
