I can't get it to show up as the keyboard, I've enabled swype in the locale settings, what else do I need to do?

EDIT: Ignore, I just can't read.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] joshlusignan:
FYI, found this posted by a staff member on MoDaCo...

"We have removed the Swype application from posts for the time being as we ate currently talking to the Swype team regarding copyright infringment.

This includes links to download sites etc. Any posts linking to or requesting Swype will be removed without warning.

Please respect the authors right to protect their application as they have requested it to be removed.

If and when they decide to sell Swype as a stand alone application we will let you know.

Thanks"
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Well personally I think we should thank Swype for a fantastic app, but really it is their fault for not releasing it on the hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Piercy0812:
i installed this last night from a link i found online somewhere, I really like it. Didnt think i would thought it would be weird but actually seems good. Getting used to it. The tutorial is really worth doing if your new to it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yeah tutorial was great.

I am loving this app on my phone it really is one of the best things I have ever installed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] qpop:
its overrated, and incomplete (thus beta stages I guess)

e.g - no auto capitalisation or auto punctuation, other than the gimmicky input method, the actual use of this as an input device is limited. I think after a couple of years of blackberry and various touch inputs, I'm still quicker on standard keyboards
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] omniwired:
I agree with you, but I guess is a matter of getting used to. Also I believe it really excels with one hand typing.

This is the brain child of the guy that "invented" T9, so maybe...yes... is worth take a look (in deep, for a few days).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Viper780:
damn bad that swype closed the beta :(

any one knows if i can get the newest beta?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
The beta is closed until they decide to re-open it.

If we were to give you the apk it is firstly illegal and secondly won't work as it requires you login using your beta information.

It should be out of beta eventually, or some Samsung ports will have it included as default keyboard....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Viper780:
So there is no option to try swype right now? :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
only if your part of the beta, which I am guessing your not.

Sorry dude.

its the only one that wanted to work for me, its only 2.5mb, but its English US

i can live with that though :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wase4711:
unfortunately, this one also does not work on the HTC EVO..

wrong screen resolution

thanks anyways!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PatcheZ:
seriously, you guys really need to spend more time researching the forums...

i was going to link you directly to the post, but i'm going to make you search for it (you guys need the practice). the latest swype version 1.54 for VGA (EVO!), HVGA (Hero), and QVGA are all posted here.

v1.56 for HVGA can be found here.

PS the 'Search' button is your friend.

and can a mod move this to the Q&A section please?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wase4711:
thanks, Patchez, you da man!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
If your part of the official beta then it should never expire, and if it does then you just need to re-download "swype installer" login and then it downloads the new non expired beta for you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] idroid84:
Thanks, I love this keyboard! :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sheridan2000:
cant seem to ge tit to do any thing...it loads up but when i swipe all it does is shake the key board....strange??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] PatcheZ:
lol, can't say i was able to use my beta long enuff. i got my you have downloaded swype too many times error way before any 2-3 month expiry, flashing way too many roms.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wase4711:
did you reboot your phone after installing?

Plus, run the tutorial first; sometime those things fix it
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] oprisnik:
FYI: According to androidandme, Swype will release the program for all Android devices today.

Source: http://androidandme.com/2010/06/news/swype-will-release-application-for-all-android-users-june-16th/

And I hope that the new version will include more langugages (German) :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] wase4711:
yeah, and coincidentally, they sent me a beta invitation today, after I applied months ago!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Leion:
i am on villian rom, not sure why when i click on the beta link on my phone, it says i am not on android and so i cannot download the file...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] msc125:
cheers mate, i signed up today and got an invite a couple of hours later!

got no wifi at the moment, so it's taking forever to download....
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] sheridan2000:
Have done that and now it says trial has finished......getting a bit pointless really think i ll stick to the normal keyboard...thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xodeus:
But it's not fair. OEM users, those who get Swype installed from factory on their devices get their languages. Us beta users have to live with English, Spanish and Italian. None of them are my native languages. So no possibility to beta test.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] JLowe:
I would try a tool like until you have another solution

http://www.qweas.com/download/system/backup_tools/batch_file_utility.htm

Or if you use Total Commander you can change also attributes in subfolders
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bobsbbq:
I have found a right click file attribute changer. Using WM7 I just doing a search for all file types *.S00? etc. But trying to load 25000+ files is putting a heavy load on my PC. lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] smaberg:
he he, atleast a PC can manage it, think what would happen if it was an mac :)
[HD2 General] yan2k:
I use RSS Hub quite a lot or at least i did on my touch pro but since getting my HD2 i find it constantly freezes and i have to reset the phone. Now it used to freeze on my touch pro occasionally but only for a few seconds but never to the point of it permanently freezing.

I've tried a couple of different ROMs all 6.5.x not 6.5 so this could be causing the problem but I'm sure it even happened on the stock o2 ROM my phone came with. Just wondered if anyone else is having the same problem and whether they've fixed it
[HD2 General] appelflap:
I have the same problem. Don't know a solution yet for this annoying problem. But I keep on searching. BTW. if RSS Hub freezes you can kill it with the standard built in WM task manager.
[HD2 General] DomZ:
Hi guys,

I have the same problems, did you find a solution ?
[HD2 General] 10332007:
Mine does it every now and then, I find its not really freezing as much as lagging out for a few moments to a minute. Annoying.
[HD2 General] kirkdis:
same here with i think the latest 2.1.2.1109 Version... is there already a solution?
[HD2 General] rishishah:
Nope i have the same issue to and this happens to other cooked ROMS too. So its the application i guess. I see this a lot when the phone looses its connection to the internet.
[HD2 General] akp99:
All as above. It seems to happen if it is trying to download a picture while viewing and you go back to the headlines screen. I just try to let pics load before going back... no solution though. Kill with WM task manager.
[HD2 General] zsunsun:
Same problem here... no matter what version i try
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cataioan:
how can i make the phone vibrate when the other side ends call ? i had this option on a rom but i can't remember.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ian92:
pocketRT - simple programme for some lucid dreamers

current version: 0.2

pocketRT helps to reach a Lucid Dream. It's developed for Windows Mobile 6 Standard-based devices in case of C# and .NET CF 3.5 learning :) I don't know if it'll work on PocketPC's.

How it works:

Through a discreet reminder of doing a reality test at certain intervals application helps to form the habit of doing it which increases the chances of reaching a lucid dream.

Capabilities:

- reminders through the vibration and sound

- use one or randomly chosen messages

Things to change:

- this awful alert sound :D

Requirements:

- Windows Mobile 6 Standard-based device

- .NET CF 3.5

If you want to edit the communiques list you'll need to check out a "pocketRT_communiques.txt" file placed in your device's internal storage.

Screenshots and cabinet file in attachments. Enjoy :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] redsix:
This is a custom Metamorph I created to change the look of Launcher2. I'm snowed in today so thought I'd share what I had done with my Nexus.

It is a little bloated right now as it has the full drawable folder in it, instead of the just the files to replace. Tested my zip of just the replacement files before posting and for some reason, MM would just stay at the "please wait: applying" screen, but when applying the full WIP zip, everything's good.

What I Morph'd: Apps button (normal & pressed), home arrows, homescreen application highlights/pressed, trashcan (color change only)

Let me know what you think, hope you like it!

[General Questions and Answers] cubalibre79:
Hello!

I've been trying to use wm6 Voip software, and everything works ok until the person I¨m calling answers the phone. Then the call ends/drops.

I'm guessing its something to need to be configured in the ipdialplan.xml file, but I just can't figure out what :o

If i use fring everything works ok, but because fring doesn't work with my bluetooth headset, I'd need to make wm voip client work.

Any help will be appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] cubalibre79:
testing a little more I found out that the problem is somehow in the incoming call settings.

I am trying with 2 HTC tytns. If I call from wm voip client to the other wm voip client the call ends as soon as the other end press accept, but if I call from the same wm client to fring then the call comes in with no problem, and it's like this both ways, meaning in both tytns.

Could somebody point me in the right direction to get calls from wm voip to wm voip client working please.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmoon:
I am using CKDroid 1.6b2

Today I updated my Maps app, but I can't get Navigation working

Also Buzz can display the layers but it fails publishing my own Buzz.

Anyone got this working?

I already read about Buzz that I may need to go to gmail using a browser.

I can live with that, but the Navigation would be very nice to have and Maps 3.3.1 just lacks some of the nice features compared to Maps 4 :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldskool73:
Hi,

I'm also on CKDroid 1.6 b2, in the UK.

Navigation works almost perfectly (except for the speech), but you need to remove the official Google Maps app and install the hacked version and the Nav Enabler, there's info on this here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5394164&postcount=134

(which is also linked from the FAQ on the CKDroid 1.5 page)

Buzz just appeared for me today when I went to google mail in the phone browser, it's just a new little icon in the menu at the top of the page, I didn't have to do anything to get it working. It's still not there in my desktop browser though, and they are rolling it out slowly, so if it's not there for you now, you might just have to wait for it to appear?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmoon:
Thanks, but I don't want the old version of Maps :)

I want the most recent.

BTW I got Buzz working but not nav (yet)

Now I am flashing Vanillain instead... just for fun..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldskool73:
err, well then you'll have to wait until Google release it officially, you can't have the latest Maps and have Nav working outside USA as Google don't want you to, simple as that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ermacwins:
cant we have 2 maps installed? old and new?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smartstradamus:
just tried buzz using ckdroid 1.6b2 and it worked after posting my first buzz using the browser,after that the maps app accepted my buzz
[Hero CDMA General] rdisanza:
Pardon my boldness but I have been on this forum now for awhile and been reading and getting alot of very good information on ROOTING.

I have yet to ROOT my Hero and I am really in a struggle to do so because it seems to me that those of you, for the most part, who have ROOTED your phones are the same people who are having all the problems with this and that appearently because of the ROOT. I mean that folks with stock Hero's very rarely say that something isn't working as it should. App's withstanding. I refer to stock features only.

Reading the problems is the Who's Who of why I think it not a wise choice for me to ROOT at this time.

Anyway, I had my say and my stock Hero works just fine with its 1800 from Mugen. Remember, its a phone, not a pc even tho it share's some pc features.

Thanks for listening...and for a great place to learn.
[Hero CDMA General] Is_907:
The key piece of information to remember is that rooting does't cause the issues we experience. It's the custom ROMs and hacks we install that cause problems :)

I think most everyone here remembers that we're doing these things at our own risk.

As for the OP, if you don't feel a desire for the features available after rooting or flashing a custom ROM, that's cool. It's not for everyone.

Rooting, flashing, hacking... it's for tinkerers. People who like to find out why something does or doesn't work and then find a fix for it.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
I would place a bet on this:

The people who don't have root or don't want to root, and they rarely post their issues in comparision with those who have rooted.

Yes, Most of the issues you see here are self inflicted, but it's what we do. We like a challenge/problem, it gives us something to do. Another reason to stay up till 3 in the morning to find out WHY it's jacked up. :cool:

If your issues are so bad, RUU and stick with stock (A whole new set of issues).
[Hero CDMA General] Darkshneider:
We mention our problems so that developers can try and fix them for the next release. In all honesty, Ive had one 1 problem, that was when I installed AOSP 1.6, which btw is/will not supported by our phone officially, I got the dreaded SMS issue that SOME people are experiencing.
[Hero CDMA General] willowmp:
Well yea many people post about issues who are rooted, but it is caused by other things they are doing that require it. Simply rooting your device shouldn't cause anything to go wrong.

Roms and other things that require root access tend to be beta, and even if they are not beta they are created by people, and not everything will be perfect.

It is pretty hard to permakill your hero compared to other devices. The only way I know of using the software is through flashing the radio, or messing with ESID and stuff like that.

Which you aren't supposed to do ;).
[Hero CDMA General] rdisanza:
Yo Is_907

Not quite the 1st reply I was expecting but a very nice understanding instead. You SIR are a gentlemen and I thank you.

Yes, at the ripe old age of 62 I do believe ROOTing and all that goes with it are for you younger folks who have grown up with computers and like devices. I do tinker somewhat and in fact, my wife and I host a private FREE World of Warcraft ( WOW )server. Been hosting online game servers for about 9 years now and we love it.

Once again, thanks and as you said, I probably need alot more schooling before I would attempt a ROOT. My only problem is AWAKE time, its really high even tho I have removed those apps I can remove to help that situation. Hopefully, 2.1 will help us Non Roots somewhat but if not, then I will strongly consider ROOTing. As long as I know there are people like yourself to help us old dudes.

Thanks again Is_907, and to the rest of you who voiced your opinions, Thanks. All good points and even more reason to consider ROOTing. :)
[Hero CDMA General] tkirton:
There's not an issue with rooting in and of itself. Take me for instance. I've had some problems with my phone:

1. Apps2SD didn't work...but that was part of a ROM that was being beta tested.

2. Kernel locked up...that was due to an invalid setting I put into the kernel I was building.

3. Lost CPU kernel control...this is something I'm doing wrong in the kernel I am building. I simply restore a control file from a previous build and recompile.

These are things that were expected in testing and needed to be fixed or that I inflicted on my own.

I have a friend who has rooted his Hero, but hasn't applied any of the custom ROMs to his phone (although he has installed applications that require root). He's never had an issue with the phone.

It really depends on what you use it for.
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
Rooting really isn't too difficult. Just look at the intelligence level of some of the people who have managed to root (before anyone flames me, I'm mainly talking about myself)!

I believe it's entirely possible to root your phone, install a custom ROM that is close to stock, and then live a happy life without ever messing with it again....:p Sorry, I couldn't keep a straight face!

Kidding aside, did you update your phone with the Sprint Maintenance Release? You mentioned "awake time" which this patch will fix without the need to root.

Honestly, I mess around with my Hero so much that I am often startled when it rings and I'm reminded that it's a phone.
[Hero CDMA General] wtphoto:
lol I second this my wife hates the fact the I have tis really nice phone and when ever I am at home she can never get ahold of because I am always doing something to it.

to the OP rooting really is not hard I mean if you are hosting a MMORPG server you could surely do it, but if your happy with your phone as is then that is really awesome. I myself when I first got my phone knew ABSOLUTLY NOTHING about android or linux or what in the work a kernel or apk was but with the help of the great community here I have learned so much. Dont get me wrong I am no where near where a lot of the guys on here are but I am learning and helping as much as I can just as those that helped me (i mean I am just happy that I think I could go through and make a theme now lol). if you are happy with the phone as is the only benifit of rooting I would bring up is being able to make backups of everything that way if anything does happen to the phone then you dont have to go trough and redownload apps and set everyhting back up again.

if you do decide to make the leap there are many people here more than willing to help.
[Hero CDMA General] rdisanza:
Its not the Intelligence thing, I know I can ROOT if I wish either with PreKitchen or the cmd prompt. And YES, I do host a game server and can write script so its not that I don't have the know-how. Its just me, I really don't need to be ROOT'd but the thought of having full control is the thing. Guess you could say I am a Control Freak. If you have ever played online and been part of the game Administration, you know what I mean.

Thanks, I haven't said NO, still just wondering is all.

Regards,
[Hero CDMA General] wtphoto:
oh please understand I wasnt trying to insult you at all, and yes I understand the control thing. thats why I rooted originally but then I flashed my first rom and got addicted. Now if im not changing my phone in some way on a pretty much daily basis I start to get the DT's lol.
[Hero CDMA General] rdisanza:
No insult taken my friend. The DT's, lol WORD!
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
Rooting is actually deceptively easy. All you have to do is download fresh pre-kitchen and hit root. Even from the command prompt (which i used because i don't have access to a windows machine) is still easy. This is literally ALL you have to do: (These are instructions for macs, basically same on windows)

Step 1. Download Android SDK from android.com

Step 2. Download Amon Ra's Sprint Hero Recovery Image

Step 3. Copy the recovery image to root of phone's SD card (name it recovery.img)

Step 4. Open command prompt and navigate to tools folder of the SDK \AndroidSDK\Tools

Step 5. Type the following code with phone plugged in via USB:

adb shell
#cd /sdcard
#flash_image recovery recovery.img
#reboot recovery

Your phone should then boot into a screen with green text on a black background. Success! You have rooted. (Note: you will need to get the version of Stock ROM with SU for root access.)

Before you reboot the phone go into Backup/Restore>Nandroid Backup Then hit Home to confirm. This will say Performing backup...... and then say Backup complete! You may now hit Reboot System Now and it will start up like normal. Then, mount the SD card, and copy the Nandroid folder to your computer. This is your stock ROM, if anything goes wrong copy this back to the phone and restore it. You may boot into recovery by starting up the phone while holding the home button. Hope this helped.
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
You don't have to push the asroot2 exploit!?!?!!?
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
Not if you're flashing a custom rom that already has it.
