Ok, so I have been having some major freezing and getting stuck on a black screen issues. Currently have Rooted 2.1 Stock Rom with JI6 update and OCLF V.2 installed on my Vibrant. Thinking about doing a full factory reset and also wiping the 16gb internal memory too. Then reinstalling everything from scratch. Will that make any difference? Thanks for any help you guys can offer!

Try this...
If you have ROM manager, try using the fix permissions option. Seemed to work for me after I flashed Bionix. I'm not sure if you're overclocked or not either. If so, you may need to check your scaling settings. Not sure if these work for you, I'm still in noob status, just trying to pick things up along the way. Would hate to get flamed for asking a question......
Just using Stock Rom not a custom Rom. Think I might just undo everything and start fresh. Just wish I could find a working download link for the TMobile unofficial Froyo Rom. But not having any luck since it was removed by the xda. devs!

Even with a stock ROM, you might want to tryr fixing permissions, seemed to work for me when I was rooted with a stock ROM....just a thought.
^^ please see the noob guide in my siganture... the ALT METHOD is exactly what you are looking for.

Howdy all. Not sure if this is old news, but I just did a clean install of Swype on Venasaur ROM. It displays at it's full, proper size now!
Up until now, I'd been using an old, pre-"ICS support" version that I backed up in TiBu, so this is news to me at least!

Does it stop swyping in the middle of long words that run across the keyboard?
EDIT: Just installed. Was working well. Then started running into the same problem. Quits swyping in the middle of words.
Thanks for the heads up! Just installed it on my Rezound running CleanROM 4.5 and the keyboard now displays at the proper size.
This is old news for me ever since I got the Rezound in February my Swype has worked just fine as far as how it fits on the screen. Now when I try to swype fast is another story.

Swype hasn't worked on ICS for quite some time for most people unless you had a GB backup.
As far as broken Swypes and fast Swypes are concerned, go into your Swype settings and set speed vs accuracy all the way to the right.
If you're still having problems, what roms are you all using?

I'm on latest ICS firmware and except for having to switch to landscape and back when restarting I haven't had any problems with Swype. I don't know that many big words so maybe that's why

That still rotation trick only puts Swype at about 3/4 its proper size, if that. What ROM? I'm on Venasaur, which is a Sense 4 based ROM.

Good to know. I'm trying to collect as much data as possible on this. Here's the history as I know it for us/me right now. Please feel free to contribute, everybody, do we can pin down gotten to get Swype functioning properly. Swype version numbers would be helpful too.
Pre-ICS "compatible" version of Swype functions at full size with the occasional bug. (personally tested myself, on GB and ICS Sense 3.6). Speed/accuracy slider fix required.
Post "compatible" version loads as a tiny corner. Rotate trick restores it to 75% sty size. (personally tested myself, ICS Sense 3.6). Speed/accuracy slider fix possibly required.
Current version runs 100% size, Speed/accuracy slider fix not required but helpful (personally tested, ICS Sense 4)

I read this post a couple of days ago and though you were kidding! lol
I just deleted my old Swype and installed the newest beta and it works great on Venasaur 3.2. I had been using the ICS keyboard on Venasaur that has the trace functionality too because of the larger keys, but it's either not as good as Swype or I'm just not used to it yet.
Edit: I've been using the older Swype for so long I thought the smaller keys were just standard for Swype!

Lol nope. So it's working for you too, eh? I wonder if the version of Swype was the issue, or Sense 3.6? No....it had to be Swype. The GB version of Swype still worked. Anybody out there running Sense 3.6 with a successful current version of Swype?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Up to this point, I've not had any issues with Swype... I was using GB...
Now, I get the same issues others are mentioning. Attempted use the installer to get the current Beta, but all I get is a Parse Error after selecting the Beta and hitting the download button.
I re-installed the GB version I was using, but it still messes up.
I seem to remember we had this problem last year and I had to uninstall the installer, re install it and I even had to log in and have the link for installer sent to me again
Just did all that. Still getting parsing error... Using slideit and its no swype...
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Cant install either, same parsing error.
Weird. I've never heard of getting a parsing error. Try wiping and uninstalling Swype and Swype installer using titanium, and then wipe cache and dalvik in recovery to make sure every shred of it is gone. Then download the installer fresh again, and give it another shot.

Stopped working after today's CM9 nightly (Aug 8, 2012)
I installed it yesterday actually, and it was working great on my CM9 nightly version at the time. Very cool when it tells you how long it will take to get to work/home.
This morning, after updating to the latest nightly, it got replaced by the default google search box. So I tried re-installing it but I couldn't get it working on the latest version of CM9. Re-installing/uninstalling/re-installing still didn't make it work properly.
Did something in the current nightly break it, or is it something I'm missing I wonder?
Sounds like the nightly brokie it. I'm still running stock ICS.
I installed it a few hours ago. It crashes randomly. not sure of the cause, could be a bad flash. Still wondering about the auto-traffic info on the way home. Dunno how long it'll take to "learn" my routes.

running the same setup. i hear the sound but its really low. im using a jelly bean theme and it changes the little mic emblem at the end of the search bar to "google". other than that runs great. i had a nexus that was on jelly bean and google now pretty much picked up everything from there.
It was working perfectly on cm9 nightly about 7-29 and now on stable cm9 pressing search gives the normal Google search box and long pressing search goes to voice search on Google now so I can't access the main menu. Tried wiping cache, uninstalling, everything and I guess it's just broken

I'm pretty sure all you have to do is go to your app drawer and you will have an app just called Google. This will take you to your google now page with your cards. Give it a shot.
Thanks for the help, but no dice. Installing the 08-11 cm9 nightly fixed the tap search thing (makes it the Google now? version, looks similar to old search box but with similar design to Google now) but clicking the app in the drawer brings it back to that screen. Cards aren't a big deal for me but it appears different versions of cm9 have differing success.

I didnt realize that the app had updated and unistalled it (as I have a backup of my apex settings and desktop). Reinstalling it gave me the same broken updated version without the ability to remove the update, so I used titanium backup pro to restore the app and data from 4 days ago and it worked perfectly. The only thing I had to do was re-add my clock widget and google music widget.
wow! wish I would have seen this earlier. Just wiped the system.

I can still use the default launcher on my tablet. If it's not going to take too long for them to fix it I might just struggle on with that. Otherwise I'll wipe and restart with the old version.
edit: sorry, just realised this thread is in a specific Motorola forum; I reached it through site search
Yeah. Mine FCs all the time, as well.
Damn it. I should have checked here first. Now I cleared the cache, then all data in the app, and finally uninstalled to reinstall. Still always crashes.
And now I lost my precious set up
I'm just going to stick to using TW and not uninstall the update or clear my settings until they fix it. I'd hate to have to re-do everything :/
I installed the latest Nova Launcher until Apex fixes their update.

Does anyone have an APK of the previous version? Touchwiz is super glitchy on my Telus Galaxy Note... I need my phone working!
I dont have a settings option from within the drop down notification bar
had to wipe and reload from backup and quickly jump to play store and turn off download for APEX until they fix it :/
I just downloaded the update. Seems to be fixed now
edit: like someone else in the market mentioned, the app appears to be a little slow. Choppy transitions, etc. Tried a reboot and nothing. Clearing my defaults seems to have fixed the issue, but restoring my settings makes it slow again. Gonna re-do all my settings and hope the choppiness goes away.

It is slow.because of the standard wallpaper scrolling. I turned off wallpaper scrolling and the.performance seems better. But I,usually use stock for the weather widget.

Ok so my phones been bugging me about the 1.3.1 update and I tried to install it. It was failing because it said the same app with a different signature was already installed. So I went to uninstall the previous version if Apex and I did, thinking it was just the update....well it seems like it uninstalled the whole app because I have no homescreen now and no way to get to my files to install 1.3.1.
Any ideas on how to fix it? Hopefully I dont need to wipe and reflash....

If you have access to a PC and WiFi you can try to push the new file through Chrome to phone. Worked for me to get Nova installed when Apex crashed. Install the Chrome to phone add on, go to the Play store from your PC, download the new Apex launcher and select the Chrome to phone icon. It should load on your phone fairly quickly. If that doesnt work push Nova the same way to get your phone stable then reinstall Apex.

Awesome that worked thanks. There had to have been something wrong with the old one anyway because when I would try to go to the play store on the phone to update the old one it would say it was up to date even though Apex was telling me to update and the phone claimed to have 1.2.5

Hey guys, so I got my S4 around July 4th and realized the same day I didn't like touchwiz. Got home, rooted and threw Dubbsy's rom on it.. I have been in love with the rom since I got it, never had an issue with gibberish provider name (except once) the lack of LTE bars didnt bother me because it still worked. The only major issue I ever had with it was my recent apps option stopped working. Well I just got the chance to update it to the newest build of the deoxed version and it has fixed the LTE bars and recent apps works again. It is fantastic and I really appreciate all the work you do! The ONLY issue I have is I only have 3 home screen pages. Is this a limitation of the rom, am i missing something simple??? I could use some help here and if it is a limitation of the rom, no big deal I can live with it until a newer version comes out

Dubbsy's ROM is nice and stock, with very few modifications.
If you want more home screens, I highly recommend simply throwing Nova Launcher on there. Grab it in the Market. It looks and performs 99% identically to the stock Nexus home screen, but adds a bit of customization. It's what I'm running on Dubbsy's and I've got no issues whatsoever.
If you still have a copy of one of the older versions of the ROM, pull launcher2.apk out of it's /system/app/ folder. I noticed the same thing and use 5 screens myself.
Once you pull the .apk replace the launcher2.apk in your current /system/app/ with it using a root enabled file manager under rw mode. Like the CM installed on the 4.9 edition or Root Explorer.
Once you've done that go ahead and reboot and you should be good.
At least, that's what I did.

Yea, it only changes the launcher. That's the only apk you would be replacing, and you wouldn't be using a third party substitute, it would be the genuine launcher since you would've pulled it from one of Dubbsy's older builds. I personally pulled it from 4.7.5 test since that's what I had on my sdcard at the time. Works fine.
