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.
http://forum.swype.com/showthread.php?1976-Swype-Beta-OPEN-again!-Happy-Holidays-from-SwypeInc
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.

I can uninstall the Swype that came with it and install the new beta, but the service force closes on me when it attempts to verify the license. Any suggestions?

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.

Yeah bro, the **** was driving me crazy since I got this phone. I delete the apk but mine wouldn't install. I was missing my swype with it mic
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.

Hmmmm, On my n1 the installer started tripping on me before. Pm me..
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.

first post of the droidtheory rom thread at the very bottom of first post is a market fix. Flash it in recovery, wipe cache and davlik and you should be good to go. If gmail force closes, wipe gmail data under settings or using titanium.

Lol, ewww not that important, got the 4g better, ill just wait
for the next update from DT
Hoping someone could help:
I am running nightly 4/22 with gapps 4/22 I have never been able to load the google music app from the store. I am currently running the stock ICS music.apk. If I try to install the new google music i get the "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again"... If I delete the music.apk or uninstall via apps or TI Backup and try to install the new version from the store I get "Application already exists". Does anyone have any clue why I am stuck in this stupid cycle...
I found the following via google support: If you receive the "Package file was not signed correctly" error, this is because your device is not on a user build. If your device is on a "userdebug" build with "test-keys" in the build description, the Google Play Music update will not be able to be installed from Google Play at this time.
Dont know if this applys to cm9 or not as I dont understand any of the above. I beleive I had heard of people running this app on CM9, so I assume its my machine specifically.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

UPDATE- I downloaded the newest google play music .apk and renamed to music.apk. I took the stock apk and replaced with the new one within the rom zip. re flashed rom and it worked. Unfortunately it doesn't show I have purchased via the google store, so it will never update itself. I will probably have to do this edit anytime I flash a new rom.
I have tried changing the apk name and it doesnt work. Also went to store and tried to install the app on top of the one loaded and it just sticks on "installing"
At least its working for now.
Hi Guys,

It's pretty straightforward, there are several apps that do this. You can search in Baidu.com for Gapps and the apk will show up. Install it, press the big button and there you go. You can also find several tutorials in Youtube, if you don't know how the app looks like.
Alternatively, here's another tutorial with a different app: http://en.miui.com/thread-17910-1-1.html
somehow i'm able to install Gapps using the installer, i don't know what i did to fix it, anyway its all good now, btw the link you gave is for device that is not bootloader locked
The minimum set of Gapps are very easy to install with the help of this tiny online installer. It's in Chinese, but it's intuitive.

This is the tools that i was using when trying to install Gapps, and after countless of failed effort, somehow it works on its own, i don't know what happened
For me NewGoogleInstaller works flawlessly on all firmwares, including the latest 7.2.4.
yeah, but now i'd like to know how can i set google playstore as a default app store instead of Mi app store
Everything is installed following the process but I can't download any apps from the app store..

You must update Google services
And Google Play at the same time.

Reboot your phone.
"At the same time" means can be done, but not necessarily.

Same here first time, but removed Google*, installed them again and it started working. I rebooted after Google login, Xunlei engine was disabled and download limit set to Unlimited.
it seem that after you login to playstore, you need to wait for a while for it to sync in order for you to be able to download apps, otherwise you'll get unable to contact server error message

Gotcha. Rebooting didn't change anything at first but I just kept rebooting (..a lot) and it seems to work now.

the google installer worked to install the apps but they couldn't establish a connection to the servers. I had to restore my playstore and google apps from a titanium backup file I had and then it would work. So anyone not able to get on google apps try installing old titanium backups, it may work.
One thing to note with all of these is sometimes it just needs time.
After all, the play services and framework often have to register with Google and also update themselves (you're not guaranteed to get the most up to date version for each even with the installer).
I installed mine and they registered fine. But as soon as I tried to download an app from the play store I got weird errors.
Left it a day and boom, worked fine.
My phone has YouTube version 12.16.16 installed when the newest version in the Play Store is 12.19.56.
However the YouTube page in the play store does not show an Update button, just an Open button.
I downloaded the latest version APK, but I'm getting an "App not installed" error message while trying to install the APK.
After doing some google searching I reset app preferences, cleared cache of the Play Store and the Play Services apps and restarted the phone. Afterwards I'm still getting an error while installing the APK.
Any advice?

Ah sorry.. you could try uninstalling updates from settings/apps and then updating again in the play store
Could you please guide me further? Are you running android O?
I entered apps info from the settings and could not find an uninstall updates button. I would expect the button to appear in the play store on the YouTube page, but it does not.

Under apps it is the "disable" button. It will ask if you want to uninstall updates, click OK and let it disable.
Now reenable it and install update from play store

When I disable YouTube it just gets disabled. I do not get asked any questions. I still do not know how to get updates.
Anybody has an advice?
Not any app should be disabled. It's hard to tell as we don't know all modifications you did to your system. It seems to be working for everyone.
Factory reset and done...

You have no idea what I'm talking about obviously
On earlier versions (not sure about on O), when you disable it'll ask you if you want to uninstall updates. You can then re-enable and reinstall the updates.

If you don't want root, flash twrp with fastboot, boot to twrp recovery, mount system, use twrpfilemanager to delete YouTube, use twrp to install stock recovery.img, boot system and install YouTube from playstore.
First you can try to download YouTube.apk from apkmirror.com and try updating manually.
Edit, sry you tried that already.
Good luck, root makes life easier

Keep calm. I didn't read your message.
What I am saying is that no apps should be disabled (not only YouTube) and that finally a factory reset would solve the problem.

Twice you quote my whole post but only answer the part you are interested in.
The suggestion that I gave after yours to re-enable all apps is valid whatever you say and includes your ''two seconds fix''.... I brought this to his attention because he's still asking for help.
So if your fix doesn't work OP can try this and ultimately factory reset.
Wow I don't intend to explain 3 times a so simple post. Take your time to read...

Nice bull****ting with your factory reset, lol
I was on O and had the new updated youtube tabs. After resetting it back to 7.1.2 the tabs didn't appear. Deleted the app from system with no luck.
Can you clarify on how you think a factory reset would solve this?
