Cognition 4 and swype - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have installed cog 4 and i find that the swype version included does not have portuguese language. Is there a way to add this language?

My Swype problem
I posted this over in the Cog4 dev thread, but it probably actually belongs here:
So I uninstalled Swype from Cog4 using Titanium Backup and did not create a backup first (dumb I know!) I then tried to install the newest version of Swype directly form the Swype web site. I now get force close every time I try to enable it. Can someone please direct me how to install the newest version of Swype, or the version that is in Cog4. Thank you.

Try deleting everything related to Swype, rebooting, then installing the Swype beta from the website. That's the only thing I can think of.

Swype?

Can't find a version of swype that works at the moment? Anyone have the newest one?

heya,
It's a closed beta at the moment, you need to register at their site (http://beta.swype.com/) and wait for an invite.
Alternately, each beta account can have up to two phones linked to it, so perhaps find somebody and see if you can piggy-back on.
I assume here that you're not asking for an APK though, right? *sigh*. Because that would be morally dubious (even though their infinite beta is annoying, I admit) and possibly illegal (since it's piracy). You can find them floating around the internet, but most of them are date-expired by now, possibly set your clock back?
Cheers,
Victor
Swype
Sorry I don't have an answer to the OP's question, but would like to continue the discussion.
I have a Nexus one with Swype. It works fine. been working fine since I was stock. I rooted, installed CM5 and Swype worked fine. I wiped, installed Enomthers, and Swype works fine. No problems there. (been using Enomthers ROM ever since. I like it better than CM... although I haven't tried 6.1)
Then... My wife got a MT3G original (no headphone jack). She signed up for the Swype beta, they accepted her and we installed Swype on her phone. It worked great. Then i rooted the MT3G and installed CM6. After installing CM6, Swype will not install. It says the application is registered to another device. Apparently this is a known issue with Swype. Even just uninstalling/reinstalling the app on the same phone/ROM can give this error. I have tried EVERYTHING suggested on the official Swype forum's, unofficial forum's, these forum's, forum forum's, etc. But i have never heard that you can have 2 devices registered to one Swype beta account. That may be the solution to mine and everyone else's problem.
Can you tell me how to accomplish this? I snooped around the Swype web page but could find anything about this. I'd be forever greatful if you can help.
PS: Does anyone understand the "application is registered to another device" error? If so can you explain how it knows it;s registered to another device? Is it the "swype installer" that gives the error or the "swype installer downloader" that gives the error? Shouldn't I be able to find the installer, change the phone info for the installer and have it realize it's actually registered for that device?
2.4.44 works fine
You cannot have one Swipe beta username and password used on two devices.
If you change roms, all you have to do is install the swipeinstaller.apk and login and it will download/ install. It will then register with swype. You cannot use a backup to install swype.apk
Just save the latest swypeinstaller.apk on your sdcard to use after Rom change.
I update or change Rom weekly and it works fine. I've been on beta since the beginning and have downloaded/installed/registered swype more than I can count.

(Q) Where is a good swype beta link?

I have tried many different swype beta versions on this phone and can not get one to work. I have been looking for the 480x800 but still I get fc's after I install them. Does anybody know where to get swype beta that will work on MDJ's cm7? I have tried other ones like slideit and shape writer, I do not like them.
I'm running CyanogenMod 2.6 and just installed the Swype beta from swype.com last night. It's been working perfectly so far.

Follow these steps:
1. Uninstall any and all instances of swype that you have on your phone
2. Go here to register and download the swype installer
3. After installing swype installer, Launch swype installer; it will ask for your login crendentials, then download the choice of swype you desire (English & Spanish or Multi-language)
4. This will install swype and take you through the steps of activating it.
Let me know if you run into any issues; you may also utilize the thanks meter
Thanks. Before I was just downloading it from random filecrop links
It always told me "this is not an android phone" and wouldnt give me the installer.

Most likely something is wrong with your root access. I have the same thing happen on new Desire HD Sense builds until I unrooted and rerooted.

Hey good lookin out on that link! It works perfect, not even a fc from first try. Idk why but even the swype I downloaded from swype beta didnt work. Thanks again.
Surprised the mods haven't taken that link down. You guys aren't supposed to post swype links. Against xda rules.

Installed the latest Swype Beta
FYI...
Installed swype beta (english & Spanish only - version 2.29.71.20186) because my version was occasionally getting stuck on the alternative symbols keyboard
and I wanted to try out the latest version.
I had to join the Swype beta programme (https://beta.swype.com)
they send you an email, you join, install the Swype installer then the app.
First, I had to use TB to convert the current production (JVO) swype to a user app before I could delete it. Then managed to install the latest version.
I had some fun and games trying to get swype registered but got there in the end following advice on http://forum.swype.com/showthread.php?2942-Stuck-At-licensing-swype-please-wait
Wiped Dalvik cache/fixed permissions just to be on the safe side.
This version seems to be a fair bit quicker and more accurate than the stock JVO swype version.

[Q] german layout for swype after Restore

Hello
Today I was forced to re-install Android on my SGS, because the former used DarkyRom9.5 was caught in an boot-loop.
So I decided to install cyanogenmod - and I'm very glad about this decision!
But after all work I recognized, that Swype isn't included in cyanogenmod, so I used RestoreSwype (apk: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841603) to restore it from an old backup.
It works fine (SwypeBeta throwed errors over errors after install). BUT there is no german layout for the keyboard - just english.
Is anybody here, knowing a way to get the german layout back??
Best regards

Install Swype beta, it has German language and layout. Sign up for it if you haven't already.

I did this, but Swype Beta crashes if it's activated, so I think I'm forced to use the "old" swype from the former installation.

Swype beta won't work when you have had a preinstalled version on your phone.
This Guide will help you get your previous swype properly uninstalled.
Okay - after removing the libSwypeCore.so I was able to install SwypeBeta correctly! Works fine - but the old (2.6....) keyboard-layout was a little bit better...
Thanx a lot!
