Guest Wiseon3 Posted September 24, 2010 Report Posted September 24, 2010 swype v2.3.43.10548 Don't know if this will work on an unrooted phone, but the basic principle is this: Get a file manager (not the included one, as it only shows you the content of /sdcard/), like OI File Manager and go to /system/app/ There you should find Swype.apk. Please note that it's /system/ and not /sdcard/system/

Guest Wiseon3 Posted September 25, 2010 Report Posted September 25, 2010 thanks but i dont have galaxy s :lol: Sorry misunderstood OP. I'm still on Eclair 2.1 build, so can't help you with Swype 2.0 (that's the version that's in Froyo AFAIK). Maybe other users will be kind enough to share it.

Guest irvine Posted September 25, 2010 Report Posted September 25, 2010 (edited) any one help me how to install it?! This is how I did it... you need to be rooted and have adb installed (or terminal app on mobile, but I'm too lazy for that) to do this. : - Copy the Swype.apk to your sdcard Run the following commands from Terminal (linux) or Command prompt: $ adb shell $ su # mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system # mv /sdcard/Swype.apk /system/app/Swype.apk # mount -t rfs -o remount,ro /dev/block/stl9 /system I had to run the mount commands, because otherwise it would say that the system partition is Read-only. You can try without, and maybe it'll work for you :lol: Now just go somewhere where you can type on the phone, tap and hold the box and change Input methods. Have fun!

Guest miker71 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Posted September 27, 2010 if it's anything like the beta then it registers itself with an individual phone (probably IMEI). i think there's also copy protection. it's easy enough to find "universal" versions via google or use alternatives from the market like Ultra Keyboard or SlideIT.

Guest miker71 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Posted September 29, 2010 google is always there to help - but it's a minefield out there. I wish they'd release Swype into the market, I'd even settle for an older version so they can keep their vendor exclusive deals with newer versions.
Guest PitSyapa Posted October 3, 2010 Report Posted October 3, 2010 it means anybody cant help me to i use swype on my desire?! I have tried everything, on my nexus one, moving the swype.apk to system/app, but nonthing happens. and it does not install, may be this file is specifically for galaxy.
