Lost my swype

[zimsport]

Opened up a text today and it told me my swype beta version expired. Not sure how to update this since it came on my phone. Using comrom 2.0
any suggestions?

To fix mine I changed to the android keyboard, then deleted /system/lib/libSwypeCore.2.29.71.20203.so and /system/app/Swype.apk, then downloaded and installed swype from the swype web site.

this did not fix it

Where does it fail? It failed for me installing swype until I rebooted.
So after removing the two files reboot your phone then download and install swype from the swype website.

i cant delete the two files.... i have root. i tried using File Manager, it fails on deleting...

You need to use root file manager or the terminal and mount /system read write before trying to delete.

If using Super Manager make sure you go into the settings and make sure root access is enabled

Now that the trial period of Beta is over for both Swift Key and Swype, is there another option to using either one...other than the obvious?
