Root problem installing swype on xtrROM 4.2, "does not match screen size"

[APCharlie]

is anyone else having problems installing swype? I am running xtrROM 4.2.1, and I can successfully install 1.60, but when I try to use it, I get this message:

"The Swype package you installed does not match the screen size of the device. Please contact Swype about this issue. Screen size: 320x480)"

I was able to use 1.56 fine on xtrROM 4.2.1, just installing 1.60 seems to be giving me issues.

Thanks

Are you sure you got the correct version of Swype? For the Eris, you need the HVGA version. There's also a WVGA copy available for higher resolution phones. If you downloaded that one by accident it would give you the problem you're describing.

I had this problem....i tried disabling all the widgets and then reinstalled it...that worked for me...then I re-enabled them after it installed ok.
