MetaMorph themes for swype

[stetsonaw]

stetsonaw, I'm not sure if this will work because you already removed Swype from /system/app, but to remove all remnants of Swype when it's still in system, you would go into Terminal and type:

su
sysrw
busybox rm system/app/swype.apk[or whatever the name there is]
cd system/bin
sh pm uninstall com.swype.android.inputmethod
cd..
cd..
sysro
sync

So I'm thinking that maybe you can still do these commands:

su
sysrw
cd system/bin
sh pm uninstall com.swype.android.inputmethod
cd..
cd..
sysro
sync

(the sysrw and sysro assume you have a ROM with those scripts built in -- if not, use whatever scripts/commands you need to in order to make system read-write, then read only again.

I hope this works, but I don't know for sure if it will!

tried that, no luck. Ended up restoring, so i'm back to normal. gonna try theming it now before i change too much

man! fighting the Swype FC battle once I move it, lol! Makes it a pain to rename it, even with the hard keyboard! I'll post a screenie when i finally get it done.

Finally! Thanks for this dude! Now to figure out what I need to do to fix the mic/enter key! Time to dig!

If you figure out the Mic thing please share how you did it.

I love these Swype themes so much. I have used the pink, red, purple, and blue themes and have been super pleased with them. I would LOVE a brown with turquoise letters one to go with the Breeze theme for UD 2.5 or just a plain turquoise one. Not sure if it is possible or if you have time though. I am currently rocking the blue one with the theme but the colors don't match perfectly.

Thanks for putting all of these together! I love making my friends jealous when they see my awesome keyboard, lol!

I was hoping someone would jump in and help out take over. I don't use swype anymore lol so I lost interest in this project

I would if I knew how but alas, I am not that smart. I am still a n00b when it comes to rooting and theming.

I think I'm a noob too, seeing I have not themed in a long time. Kinda forget how lol.

Well,...
This is dead once you switch to a 3.0 ROM
I'm on UD 3.0.1 and once I do this Swype just goes into a Force Close overload
:icon_eek:

im assuming swype worked before you used my metamorph theme. did you try rebooting a few times

 

[FastKatt]

Yes it did & yes I did...
I uninstalled and reinstalled Swype
Then tried a 2nd time with the same problem...
(Not a fun task either...)
I guess I'll deal with stock for a while
Just wait & see what happens as 3.0 gets more popular.
Thanks!

Now did you just restore swype from a backup, or did you do a fresh install of it?

 

[FastKatt]

Fresh install, with fresh DL of the "installer" as well
