Fix for anyone have problems with SWYPE after installing 2.2

[androidisforporn]

I had the Swype beta installed and did the update and Swype started crashing constantly. I assumed it was because the update tried to install swype when I already had it. I uninstalled swype and the installer but now I can't get the beta because it says my phone already has it. But I don't have Swype anymore . Any one else have this issue?

Simple solution, remove Swype before updating. Fixed.

For folks who may still have an issue after uninstalling & reinstalling, tap & hold a text area where the keyboard would normally be invoked. It'll give you a context menu with Input Method as a choice. Select that and see if Swype is or is not selected (probably is not), and select it. That final trick did it for me.

This worked for me too so far. I saw that SWYPE was available after the upgrade to 2.3 but couldn't figure out how to get it to work. It's working now.....THANKS!
