[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
First, register if you haven't. A LINK TO THE SWYPE BETA. It is open now. Why wouldn't you register??

Second, completely remove your current version. Uninstall it. Open Root Explorer, go to main root folder, press the search button on your phone, type "swype"and delete all files, reboot your phone.

Here is what my Root Explorer looks like... again, I am sure there are better ways. This worked for me though.

Then, Download the swype beta installer. I go to the site from my phone. Open it, follow prompts, select swype as input method. I only download the English/Spanish version. No need for a bigger file, right?

I suggest turning auto correct off in the settings.

Here is a really good guide for backing up / restoring your Swype Dictionary (root users).

Also, tell @swype their new "feature" of moving to the end if a tapped word is annoying. It used to show the cursor where you tapped. I've notified them already. They said it would be addressed and higher ups notified.

All in all, it is SO MUCH BETTER! No more annoying pop-up window! Really feels a lot better.

Here is a picture. Notice how the words are displayed now, not a pop-up:

Ty for guide, so I guess the server is back up. Cool
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
OMG there's a new one?

Updating is how? My Swype Installer auto updated.. i generated licence

edit: now swype aint working at all lol.

I'll redo the whole thing with your method..

btw on your guide you say "root folder" what do you mean can you be a bit specific?

oh and for people wanting a pic of new one its on the website:

idk if keyboard is white though
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
^ that picture is not the one. It resembles Swype as you know it.

I'll post an image soon.

The main parent folder, so your search looks everywhere. There may be a better method, this is just how I did it.

I don't know if this will work for anyone else, but I had the previous Swype Beta installed. I went into TB Pro and uninstalled Swype (left the Swype installer), Then rebotted, went back into apps and used the Swype installer which loaded the most recent version.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
wow, that surprises me.. but if it works, please someone confirm and let me know. That would be amazing. Not sure why updating from the old installer would not work, but it didn't for me.. of course, I did not remove swype before using the old installer to update.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
If you remove all of swype from root explorer then try to update using the old installer, it auto updates everything the installer, then asks you to login, then installs new swype.

I followed your method, and it worked.

The TB method has never worked for me so i didn't even waste my time trying this time.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Videos added and formatted a bit.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clvnmcd:
I initially tried just updating from the installer as well and it didn't work for me either, The reason I did not delete all the files through Root Explorer was that there were several files listed at database and entries in the Dalvik Cache. I didn't want to delete those unless absolutely necessary. So I gave TB a chance, figuring I could always go back and delete everything through root explorer if it didn't work.

It worked great for me to uninstall through TB and then use the Swype Installer, only took about 1 min. to go through the process.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dale5671:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laylovj:
Pretty slick..I'm lovin' it.

Here's what I did..

1. Enable Root Function w/ Super Manager Free

2. Go to Root>System>App

3. Delete Swype.apk

4. Download/Install installer via phone

5. Open Installer

6. I picked full beta but w/e.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hida0901:
Odd thing... went to super manager, deleted swype.apk, several other files but left the swype installer.

Went into the installer, checked version, signed in, downloaded eng/Spanish, clicked install, and it says "application not installed". Tried again same result. Any ideas?

Oh yeah when I installed first time it said its a system app, am I sure I want to replace?

Anyhoo... any ideas? Guess I can get rid of the installer too, but seems kind of pointless ...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dale5671:
That worked s15274n. Thank you for the help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
about to submit a blog entry on the new beta, I will paste my tips into the OP from the article... Hope it helps you guys.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laylovj:
Did you enable root access before deleting? It won't delete if you don't.

I enjoyed reading, thanks for the tips you should try and add those tips from XDA you posted about speed vs accuracy or something.

Thanks anyways
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kwes1020:
I always add the newer swype versions to every rom I flash. I have noticed on some (bi-winning v 3.0 for example) I had to install with beta launcher, install swype, then reboot. After the reboot swype will force close. Uninstall it, re-install reboot and no more problems after that.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icarianecho:
Nice blog & and OP Callip.

I can confirm that previous installer versions will work & that most users will want to disable autocorrect (defeats the whole purpose of swyping).

You might want to tell users that they can simply rename the pertinent files rather than delete them (in case they don't like the beta).

Also, I have *never* been able to install the beta without first wiping Dalvik cache in recovery.

I posted something similar in another thread; will repost here.

Thanks for the guide!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icarianecho:
1. As stated, using a file explorer like Root Explorer, navigate to system/apps. Find swype.apk and rename it swype.apk.bak. Now you have a backup you can easily reinstall (just delete the .bak).

2. Do the same for the libSywpe.co file in system/libs.

3. Reboot into recovery and wipe Dalvik cache.

4. Reboot and run the installer (see OP for directions).

5. Viola! You are now a Swype Beta tester.

PS: the autocorrect in the new version is infuriating.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Thanks for that, and the kind words. Will update op once at apc. Swype tweeted my blog, pumped about that. They gave 2 suggestions/tips that I'll add too. They didn't say anything about my install method though, which worked. I agree though, .bak is probably better.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dougefresh91:
The cursor skipping is maddening. Maddening! I asked about it on their Twitter, so hopefully that will get addressed. I for one can't figure out how that's a feature and not a bug.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Seriously. I also addressed with them. One tap = end of word, second tap = where you want... except that its NOT always.

ANNOYING. Thank God for the "Swype button to SYM" screen where you can adjust the cursor.

I really hate I did not use that more in the past for SELECTING TEXT... OMG its better than how I was doing it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I encourage you all to tweet this:

@Swype would be the perfect keyboard if you guys would remove the ridiculous cursor change in the new Beta. I want the cursor where I touch!

EDIT:

Wanted you all to know Swype was again very receptive and told me they were meeting to discuss this today... they know it's an issue. Hopefully they can fix it.

I would say it would be cool if you have auto-correction ON, but if you turn it off, the cursor can be placed where you touch. Cake, meet ice cream.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dougefresh91:
Double tap seems to highlight the whole word. Which is nice, but no different than before. This is something that hadn't been working in web comment boxes since I was on 2.1. Super happy to see that working here. I'm gonna go try it out on the Gibson board next, because I know it didn't used to work there for sure.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
That is odd, double tap does highlight a word... for editing. But, you can also double tap (slowly maybe) and move the cursor... it's just not as accurate as it used to be. Odd.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buttafinguz:
I followed the OP's directions exactly and had to reinstall Swype several times before it actually worked. I backed up Swype with titanium backup and deleted all other Swype related files. I finally got swype running. It did not register correctly, but everything works fine...until I restart the phone. Once the phone has been rebooted, i immediately get repeated force closes until i disable Swype. I tried uninstalling Swype and reinstalling the original app from titanium, but it just stayed on the restoring app screen for about 20 minutes until i got tired and rebooted it.

I read on another post that Titanium does not actually back up the app, just the settings. Since i've deleted the original apk (thinking titanium backed it up) and the beta download is not working correctly, I'm lost. I tried a factory reset, thinking that might bring back the original apk, but no luck. Please help!

After i installed cyanogenmod 7 on my optimus 2x, i only borrowed an microsd card of a friend to install it. After I gave it back, im not able to save any files, nor take any pictures with my phone. seems like some settings that is set to only save on sd cards. how to fix?:D
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Try when the camera is on, press the menu and scroll down to storage at the bottom and check that is on internal sd card.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
CM7 is designed to use an SD card. You'll need to look in the dev section to swap integral & external SD mounts.
[LG Optimus 2x] zelly2k9:
Are there any other fast roms, such as modaco or something, that is not designed to only save content on sd cards? I dont have an sd card, so I can only borrow one when installing
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
You can fix CM7 pretty easily. It's just a zip to flash.

MoDaCo works like stock though and defaults to the internal SD.

If your TV supports DLNA (wireless connection) you can do it.

I was sure, that if your TV have a USB port then you can just conect via standard cable with the SD card mode and just play movie .

This is not true?

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iwillkillyou:
I have to say "playerpro" from the market is incredibly incredible especially with the DSPPack enable. I find it to better then Poweramp. It's has all the features you like about Poweramp X2. With voodoo sound its purely magical.

and Playerpro has a super ugly UI compared to the easy Poweramp.

+Player pro is like 6 bucks lol
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] }{Alienz}{:
I'd have to say I respectfully disagree but it's great there is now competition in the market! I do agree the 2 apps are very close.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iwillkillyou:
Now that's what I call a fail.

Powerpro UI is "super" lovely. I always have preferred it over Poweramp. The price is worth it. Last time I checked Poweramp isn't free other.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iwillkillyou:
We all know why Poweramp got popular, it was the first music player with EQ(10 band graphic equalizer. ) later more music players come out with that feature but still didn't have the sound quality/15 default presets.

But know powerplayer has it, i don't really know when it came out but I'm guessing it's has to be recent. But yeah now Poweramp has competition.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Scarinzi:
I've used both Playerpro and Poweramp and prefer Playerpro now that it has the EQ. Playerpro also has skins so it can look much better.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] nyc3:

does Playerpro "hide" the files from System Scan like PowerAmp does? this really speeds things up during reboot.

Hi all,

Got my UK TF101 today and loving it.

However the finish is not that good. The small plastic strip between the glass and the bronze edge of the casing has remnants of the glue used during the assembly and it won't come off. Looks like it has been rush assembled and makes it look tatty. Would be a shame to return it just for that but when you spend this money and see what finish iPads have you really want it to be mint.

Does any one else have this problem on their TF101?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Unless they have changed the manufacturing process for newer devices, there's no glue anywhere near the casing/bezel.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] akarol:
I have some glue on the top of the black strip on the top-left (when holding the tablet in landscape mode). I only noticed it when I had my desk lamp shining on it. It wasn't present on the other TF I had at the moment. Doesn't really bother me that much.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] BulletProofPoet:
Yeah, mine arrived today and has the same thing. The rubber's not quite flush with the screen and its mount, but it really doesn't matter.

Overall very impressed with the device so far. I certainly won't be sending it back over that small defect. We live in an imperfect world..!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stcardinal:
Yup. But eventually after some use it wore off.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jadesse:
Mine just arrived today I can see some remnants of what appears to be glue both bottom & left side. Also it appears that the 1/2 section on the rubber on the right side has been rubbed down.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] aerotec:
Quite agree it won't affect the use of the device but when you see how sharp a finish the iPad has it is a shame to not be perfect on the TF101.

I called Comet and they were happy to do a swap. When I popped in to the local store the Customer Service Desk chap admitted I was the third person with this problem. He got another one from stock and it was better but still a bit of dried glue. He offered an exchange or 10% refund. I decided to go with the 10% refund so got £43 back. I can now live with the problem.

If others want to see what we are on about here is a pic of my bezel. Right hand side is as I would expect but the top strip is very messy and slightly raised compared to the flush fitting section.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Thx for the pic, it's good to see what you were describing. I've looked really closely at my device and I still cant see any glue on mine. It looks like the manufacturing process has changed since they started production, not for the better in this case it seems. That certainly is a fair amount of money off though. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bassl1ne:
Had glue on mine too, I thought it had been refurbed and returned it for another unit. This one was checked in store and appears perfect.
