I think this change broke the process to restore vendor-installed Swype on T-Mobile G2. Swype can usually be restored by copying the Swype shared library and package files to the proper place, but the vendor-supplied Swype quit working on 7.1 until I went into build.prop and changed ro.product.brand to "tmobile".

Maybe there's something else that the change to "htc_wwe" is fixing, I don't know, but this change has a downside for those of us who want to keep using our non-time-bombed version of Swype.
