swype beta

[Papadroid]

I would uninstall swype and the swype installer then try to reinstall. Also it looks like you deleted the stock keyboard for your phone.

I just downloaded what was emailed to me, which is the installer, and when I run that, it comes up with the message to disable swype to register. I don't see swype as even being installed in apps, just the installer.

Also, how do you delete the stock KB? Is that even possible?

Also it's showing it as 1.1.1579

You may how to do a factory reset in order to get that swype version off. Have you tried an app called quick uninstaller to see if it can remove it. Also, is it possible that at one time you installed it as a system file if you're rooted?

I haven't tried quick uninstaller as it doesn't even show it being installed, and it's not rooted and this is my first time trying the beta.

Nm, it was listed under "all apps" under manage applications, but i "cleared data"

I guess Ill wipe the phone later, I don't really want too, but I may have too

If it's listed under all apps did you try to uninstall then?

The "uninstall" option is grayed out.

That most likely means that it is a system app.

Which means? That it came with the phone? This is an EVO by the way. I don't think it came with the phone and I can't find anything to state it did.

I don't think the EVO came with it. That is odd then if you're not rooted and it is somehow in the system/apps. Maybe post in the EVO section for help.

Correct. This is for Motorola DROIDs, not HTC phones. As such, any advice you find in here is probably not going to be applicable to your phone as they are very different phones.

Actually, it's working, Sprint released an update on the 15th which included it, and I just found out tonight and it's working! It's AMAZING!

Even so, you still need to post in the appropriate forum - it would have saved you a lot of trouble.

Glad you got it working, though.
