[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] patchseven:
i was lucky enough to get the swype installer working on my s3 prior to rooting.

since rooting i have been completely unable to get it working again.... Constant parsing errors.

thanks to previous posters for the nexus version but I was quite disappointed with it, it seemed at an unnatural resolution, and in landscape did not take up the whole screen, compared to the previous version I had.

So... A quick extraction from my cwm backup and I'm back in business.

For everyone here I realize this is against xda rules, but given that the installer currently seems broken for the s3 I post for the benefit of those here

Please only download if you have an active Swype beta account :)

Galaxy S3 Swype beta
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] pm007:
Thanks for a swype. Works fine, but keys are so small. Is there any possibility to get them bigger ?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] bu2askoor:
Guys, this version worked for me

Swype Version: 3.26.92.39062
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] kirdroid:
Worked perfectly...thanks. Way better than default keyboard.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Hoffighter:
Any Version with German aviable ?

THX
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] patchseven:
Yup,

Just Download the apk I posted a few posts back, install it.

Then menu, settings, language and input, Swype settings(the little cog), language options, manage languages, download languages, then tick deutsch...

Downloaded and installed fine for me... :) but sorry i lack the German knowledge to test it.....

I assume all other optional languages will work also....

(English only users can also deselect Spanish, if you keep accidentally hitting the language switcher on the keyboard like me....)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] kirdroid:
That's bad to hear...what does that mean, are they not developing Swype anymore? :(
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] slapdatass:
Don't think it's that - from what the forum mod is saying, they're going to update the beta soonish. Probably going to release a new version for download soon.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] supaburger:
thanks for posting the apk

it work perfectly on my phone i was also able to download italian and eng uk
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] bishibosh:
thanks guys :) swype beta works a treat (again) :D
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] m0nt0:
Actually i got it working with the download and everything.

Previously installer downloaded with acer liquid was giving always the parse error (apparently the download was corrupt, too fast to download something real).

After reading some posts here just redownloaded the installer from the swype site, logged in and now it worked.

I think that the previous installer doesn't recognize the phone characteristics or something similar also if the version are the same.

Can anyone try to do this solution and confirm?

Swype stand alone apk's are not allowed to be posted. They have asked us not to let it happen, so we respect that and we won't. Do not post an apk link again. Thank you.

Just enable swiping in the samsung keyboard instead. It's in the keyboard settings. :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Diaf82:
It doesn't work as nicely as Swype.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] abeeson:
As everybody said on previous posts, that rip-off is not particularly good. Its missing certain easy functions, commonly used keys are hard to use, and worst of all, the word recognition is very inaccurate (at least for me)

But anyway, onto my main point.

I have just installed the beta installer from swype (via the beta.swype.com website link) and run the installer, it installed properly first time (rooted stock SGS ICS rom)

The swype version installed is: 3.26.92D.39125.t0.11357.ENSP

Just a heads up, just grab the beta installer and your in business again (assuming you have a login)

PS - Jay - that sucks man, but i totally understand why you had to go through and remove em all.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Dead Cell:
Can someone please give me the download link for the beta installer as I can't log in to my swype account on my S2 but can on my iPad and pc. What nonsense is this?

I do have an account and used to have swype on other devices.

Many thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] cmd512:
New Swype Beta released today, keyboard and settings look very different. No more option to toggle between speed vs accuracy, but overall feel is MUCH faster!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Dead Cell:
Would you mind sending me the installer apk please?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] patchseven:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Dead Cell:
Thanks mate but it still doesn't work and keeps telling me that the username and password is no in their records but if I try from my pc, ipad then it works fine but of course it doesn't allow me to download as it has to be done on the phone.

All I need is the apk installer if somebody would be so kind.

Thanks.

with the new version , how can you change the language fast , to previous version there is a dedicated button for changing language , now you must continious press space in order to pop up a new menu and change the language . Is there any faster way?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Jerommeke:
Cannot download languages

Hi folks,

I just installed the latest Swype Beta on my girlfriend's phone, the installation went fine. But when I want to download other languages, the phone keeps "thinking" and I won't get a list of languages.

Anybody with an idea to solve this? My girlfriend loves to swype!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] scottsdca:
help with swype beta installer, please

Hi, was wondering if there was a link to this post or am I missing something? I have a Verizon s3 that I haven't tried to root or install a Rom, and the installer just spins and never initiates. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Scott

PS. I just saw where a link may not be appropriate. Please PM me the info or link. Thanks.

PSS. I got it working after running it a few times. Also restarted the phone at some point. Good luck. Oh I also tried downloading a version off 4shared.com

Can any1 give me the theme chooser of mini cm9 3.0.2 as I removed from system/apps by mistake quickly plz and thank you
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] thegearhead:
come on dude, just download the rom and extract it from the zip file . . .
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LukBoy99:
Already did that and added theme chooser and theme manager to system/apps put xxoxooxoo permissions and still cant change my theme
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] matmutant:
just flash the rom again, you won't loose data !!

i don't understand why no one wants to install the rom again to recover what they deleted ??

do NO wipes, just re-install the miniCM9 zip :P
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LukBoy99:
Will that keep every single thing?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] matmutant:
yes.

but to be sure as you seem careful, backup your current state with clockworkmod

and then install the miniCM9 zip ;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LukBoy99:
Ok the results were good the only problem was that bootanimations were lost maybe other stuff+the first flash the wireless didnt work the I reflashed again and it works
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kindaskimpy:
I owned the original EVO and loved it. From there I moved to the SGSII Epic 4G Touch because I wasn't thrilled with what I saw from the EVO 3D but now I'm back to the EVO family (it feels good to be home!) with my 4G LTE since launch day but I'm wondering of anyone else is experiencing the same things I am, especially former SGSII owners.

The 4G LTE feels considerable slower than my SGSII. And I mean considerably!

Text message conversations with more than a couple hundred texts take a long time to load (sometimes not loading at all)

Heading into the Recent Apps screen takes several seconds from push of the button to actual initialization

Scrolling on the home screens and in the app drawer is sometimes laggy or choppy

From the moment you unlock the phone to when you have access to the home screen takes a few seconds.

Apps take longer to open than on the SGSII

Little things like screen taps seemingly not registering right away

Again, I'm NOT bashing! I'm genuinely curious if anyone else notices these things because if this isn't happening to anyone else then clearly my unit is defective and I need to exchange it ASAP, before the 14 day exchange policy runs out.

UPDATE: I went into a Sprint store a couple of hours ago, exchanged my EVO for another unit, and this one (so far, anyway) is the complete opposite of this last one. Everything is moving right along with little to no lag and I haven't run into any of the old hiccups (yet) so it looks like it might have just been a bad unit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] swaze:
Don't notice it because it's not true. Wife has the sgs2. It's no comparison.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] theoner1:
Your not alone. I don't own a SGSII but I can tell you that my LTE is acting the same way, which all point back to sense 4 is the problem. I'm sure with custom rom and better memory management it will be a whole lot better, I hope.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] flex360:
ur the only person experiencing those things my friend
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fastmikey1969:
That doesn't seem normal. Mine is really snappy, coming from a an Epic 4G (SGS1) Try a different launcher first.

Have you tried the phone in the store?

If you think your phone is defective by all means exchange it. I exchanged mine after 1 day due to reboots, been rock solid since (knock on wood)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] d2daanny:
I am a E4GT and Evo LTE owner. The Evo LTE is much faster everything I have used it for so far (with the exception of 4g, I do not have LTE in my area).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Wife has a epic 4g touch and I was jeaslous when I had my OG EVO since it was fast and new. I can tell you now she is jealous, my LTE flys... :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kindaskimpy:
Thanks for the idea, guys

It does seem to be Sense-based because I installed GoLauncher and it seems to be snappy as can be. Going through my texts messages in Handcent also seems to be greatly improved.

That's both good news and bad news though, because... what the hell do I do with a phone that doesn't run stock software well?

I'm going to head back to Sprint tomorrow and exchange it and hope it's just a fluke with this specific unit. It might be. And I'm really hoping it is because I don't want to have to leave HTC once again (have you seen the SGSIII?! it's hideous!)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NCRoadster:
Not normal at all. I would do a factory reset.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ImaWinRAR:
Coming from the E4GT, I have no idea what you're talking about lol. the LTE is superior in every aspect.. but yeah u should get a replacement. I had a loose vibrating motor and I took it to best buy for a replacement with problems, I had to call every day and a bunch of stores in the area for when they had some in stock
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] slayer69:
I agree with the other posters.....it does seem strange that you see this....I just tried all the stuff you mentioned and I get fast as hell responses. I did exchange my first one because of a rare overheat......but my new one and my wifes both are awesome with ***** sprinkles.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kindaskimpy:
Exchange, it is!

Thanks, y'all.

Wish me luck tomorrow.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BlueGoldAce:
Had a epic 4g touch and a iPhone 4s. This phone is faster in all aspects then both of those phones.

Good luck with the exchange.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bluejee:
i have both phone epic 4g touch is my personal and htc lte is my work phone. comparing the 2 i feel they are the same but that is because my e4gt is rooted with custom rom running at 1.5 ghz most the time. 1.7ghz 75% or higher. so comparing a stock 1.5ghz phone vs a rooted, running scripts, custom kernal. i would say the htc is better performance wise.

I do see the laggyness that the OP is experiancing sometimes, during a lot of multi tasking.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mexiking713:
Coming from the Epic Touch I can honestly say this phone is better in every way.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jasondarr:
I'm not having those problems

I'm not having those problems on a consistent basis. My biggest problem is that the 3g will just drop out from 3-4 bars to no bars.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mlin:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] IAmSixNine:
Ive noticed it as well.

On all previous EVO devices the longer the thread is on texting the worse it lags.

I blame sense.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kcodya:
I got the EVO LTE on Saturday, coming from an EVO 3D, and immediately rooted, unlocked and flashed Viper Rom and the Dual-Core mod. I noticed that things were lagging, games were stuttering, and things were just generally slow. I happened to run a Quadrant benchmark yesterday, and my scores were only in the neighborhood of 2100, so something was definitely wrong with my setup. I wiped and reflashed Viper Rom and the DC mod, now things are blazing fast! Games run perfectly and my Quad score is looking like it should be.

If you flashed a rom, you might have the same issues I was. Run some benchmarks, and if they are abnormally low, wipe and reflash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kindaskimpy:
I wasn't on any rooms so that didn't seem to be the issue but I do have an update for you guys.

I went into Sprint a couple of hours ago, exchanged my EVO for another unit, and this one (so far, anyway) is the complete opposite of this last one. Everything is moving right along with little to no lag and I haven't run into any of the old hiccups (yet) so it looks like it might have just been a bad unit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nabbed:
I have both phones in hand, so to speak. I just tested a whole shload of apps loading times (I have about 50 installed on each device, and all of the downloaded ones are disabled from loading on boot with Autostarts app).

Here are the results.

When it comes to loading sense or touchwiz apps, E4GT is either faster or the same as Evo LTE. Most of the time, E4GT is faster.

When I tried third-party apps, Evo LTE has been almost exclusively faster.

This tells me that Touchwiz 4 is much faster than Sense4, even though Evo LTE is much faster than E4GT in raw performance.

The conclusion here is that Evo LTE has the potentia ofl being a much faster device than sgs2, but it is held back by very bloated and sluggish Sense4.

I have no doubt that when cm9 has a daily driver, it's going to be much faster than E4GT.

But not faster than Touchwiz 5 on SGS3. Samsung has always been one of the best when it comes to squeezing every ounce of performance from the available hardware.

(Here I go on a rant I know little about. Nevertheless -

Everything in Touchwiz 4 was gpu accelerated beyond your standard android canvas routines. Launcher, browser, scrolling in apps, etc. Hell, touchwiz 5 launcher is vastly smoother than Sense4 launcher on Evo LTE, and it uses its own gl draw module. In fact, I run TW 5 launcher instead of Sense to make things faster and smoother.

)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hypersonicx:
Not to mention, the Epic Touch dual core Exynos CPU is a beast though compared to Snap Dragaon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vulcZ:
OP I'm with you (sort of). I had a lot of the similar performance issues, but ditching the stock SMS App and Sense launcher (for GoSMS and Nova, respectively), fixed 95% of the issues. I'd be willing to bet that the performance issues are related to software. The hardware is fast and very well built. I liked the performance of my E4GT, but it felt like a crappy plastic phone. I was on the verge of returning the LTEVO the day after it arrived, but I decided to play with it some more and now I'm practically in love with it.

The camera is amazing, although not as huge a jump from the Galaxy S2's camera as I would have hoped. Still better, but the GS2 has a pretty good camera in and of itself.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] princebama:
Im not coming from SGSII but I have none of those problems. Glad your new unit is working up to par now :)

I take it that E4GT was not stock?......
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] benthe1:
I have an Epic Touch and I just got my wife the EVOLTE. Her phone is blazing fast. She really has only had two issues, booth relating to data. The first one is that data is a bit slower than her OG EVO. The second is that her phone doesn't stay connected to a wifi connection for very long. I just hope HTC updates this soon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fastmikey1969:
Sense seems to be slow in general . Anyone remember the TP2 days? <shudder>

With that being said I find this phone pretty snappy and responsive. Coming from an epic 4G.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] surge89:
I came from the GSII on Sprint also! I do feel as if the GSII was a lot smoother and didn't lag at all. But, I do think I have a defective device as my wifi gets dropped and picked up every five minutes. When in the same spot my 3G drops all bars and stays that way for hours even though five minutes before I had full bars. I don't get on wifi because it is always being dropped.

Now, with that being said, the radios are so much better. I get service where I didn't get before and my speeds are faster. I love this phone and the hardware, don't plan on replacing it (well, with a new Evo yes), but I will be buying a GSIII!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quicksand Jesus:
My un-scientific research here. I just picked up the phone yesterday.

Slower than E4gt by a mile. Sense gets in the way at every step. If you try to disable the apps it sticks in a boot loop.

Phone back in the box right now. I'll be waiting for the next great thing......... :mad:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] niv3d:
I believe this is a known issue with the EVO LTE and there is rumor HTC and Sprint are aware of the it as well as weak signal and heat issues. They are supposedly working on a fix.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] benthe1:
You got to do what you got to do. My wife's EVO has some of the common issues like wifi and 3G drop issues. Hopefully a fix will be released soon!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vulcZ:
OP I'm behind you 100%! This phone needs some serious updates to address the performance issues, and I think the majority of them are related to Sense's crappy memory management. The E4GT was an absolutely buttery smooth device. The LTEVO may benchmark higher, but the E4GT definitely runs smoother, launches apps faster, and switches between apps quicker also.

I loved the LTEVO for the 2 weeks I had it, but you can't deny the fact that it has definite performance issues. Not blaming hardware, my quarrel is with software.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] luisrod03:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dude2k5:
I had the Galaxy 2 for sprint but the updates took forever, I had major battery drain. They took forever to even acknowledge the problem, let alone fix it. The battery life on this phone is insane, I can go 2-3 days on light usage. I just tried CM9 (compared to stock) and it blows it away. It's so smooth, it's like butter. Sense was ok, a bit choppy sometimes, but barebones make this phone crazy fast. HTC has been pretty good on updates, at least when I had the original Evo. So I'm sticking with them, seems theres a lot of good devs working on this phone anyway.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] IAmSixNine:
I agree with your conclusion that the Sammy product is a bit snappier. I blame that on Sense and just the way the stuff is done on the HTC devices.

Compaing my EVO 4G to EPIC 4G. Epic was smoother.

EVO 3D to Epic Touch, Same thing.

BUT the EVO LTE is the first HTC device that runs well out of the box. So its an improvement.

Also in the past HTC and Samsung have had different processors and GPU / Displays. I think this has part to do with how responsive stuff is on the screen.

With the GS3 and EVO LTE having the same processor and GPU it will be interesting to see how the two devices compare.

Ive already made my decision and got an EVO LTE. I just hope they listen to the community and fix the bugs we are reporting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
You returned a phone because of software issues, even though you loved it and know they'll fix the software?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vulcZ:
I left a few parts out. It's very likely that I will be coming back to the LTEVO. I returned it mainly because my return window is very close to the GS III launch. I want one of these two phones, so why buy one without even trying the other? This way I'll get to try both and choose the one I want. We don't always have this luxury. If the LTEVO wasn't delayed this wouldn't be an option, but since it was, and returns are based on activation dates, it seemed like a no brainer to test both phones before choosing the one I wanted to stick with.

I'm leaning towards the LTEVO, but I'm going to give the GS III a fair chance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nickwn88:
I bought my evo friday (coming from the SGSII) and i've seen nothing BUT improvements. Don't get me wrong, SGSII was and still is a beast of a phone but so far this evo trumps everything about it.
