I did exactly your way and after delete I rebooted. While installing it still asked me to overwrite swype I said ok and overwrite and installed confirmation dialog was ok. I rebooted after installation choose swype in settings. Open email/text message I got the tutorial box and then the worst happens swype is dead and it doesn't comes on any field- word, browser, text, emails anything it doesn't shows up at all. Its very frustrating. Someone please help.
And the attached pics also yells my swype version and the top preference options are greyed and can't be changed. Looks to me that this beta is buggy and I'm surprised how others are able to use it.

removed, installed, no succes
I've done the following steps without success...
Info:
Phone has root (via CF-root)
Swype removal:
logged in via adb shell
mount -o remount,rw /system
rm ./system/app/Swype.apk
rm ./system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
reboot
Swype install
downloaded the file
installed
when generating the license it crashes.
Reason: Unknown.
anyone an idea?

Try update your firmware to 2.3.4 (KG1 or KG2) that include swype v.3

I just tried it on my phone and it works perfectly. After deleting the 2 swype files with root explorer, reboot, then install swype beta via the apk, NOT via the official beta installer.

Swype: Parsing could not be installed

This is the first time i've EVER and i will say EVER encountered this issue (for me of course)
I deleted swype.apk from system/app
deleted libswypecore.so from system/lib
rebooted (like 3 times)
and when i click on swype installer, login, and choose SWYPE FULL to install
after a while it says "parsing error not installed " something in that area.
What can i do to make it actually work?
Currently i have no swype, and without swype, my life is ruined.
a bad download, swype tweeted they uploaded the incorrect full version.
Also, why in the world are you using the full version? You only speak/need English. The lite version should work no problem.

thanks for the tip, but its not working for the english/spanish one either.
and i just found out that the FULL version meant like.. all languages lol.
I thought full was like... the whole swype system, while beta was parts of it.
i'm so dumb
Anyways, are you saying that they tweeted neither of the swype *full AND english/spanish* don't work?

so you tired the new updated fixed version? What rom are you using? Couldn't you put swype in that build and then flash it? Just trying to think outside the box is all.
Yes, and i'm using that Sweet Honey one.
Uhm, okay so i did TRY to "think outside the box"
I had a previous version of swype i kept on my SD Card.
I installed that.
Went to Swype Installer.
It recognized the swype version
i logged in.
Then it said "registration failed"
I have the swype keyboard, but no swype gestures or library.
I request that someone goes to system/lib/
and finds libswypecore.so
copies theirs, and gives it to me, so i can use it.
It would be VERY appreciated!
You do realize any tie to swype needs to be removed, then reboot... You can't install swype beta when you already have swype.
Correct.
As far as i know, and this has worked before...
Removing the apk from system/app
and the lib file from system/lib
and rebooting
removes swype.

I'm sorry... I really can't see why your confused.. you mean I should delete the swype file on my SD card too?
Go to root explorer then the root directory. Search swype, delete all references. Reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, install the beta.
Edit: not the sd card, just the system files.

Turns out me not uninstalling swype installer was the problem :O
Must have had some corrupt data. Usually it will auto update if it's an older version that may cause a problem.
The beta doesn't auto update, you have to open the installer.
The installer I meant..when you open it the installer will update to the latest version then you can check for swype updates.
I had the same issue. Make sure you reboot your phone after you remove the files, then make sure you use the stock browser to download the installer, don't use skyfire or opera or any of those. I had the same issue when i was using skyfire. used the google browser and it worked fine. The website says not to use certain browsers or it won't work.

Do what this guy said... however a little more detailed:
Delete the Swype.apk file in System/App/ using root explorer. Once you do that, re-install using the installer utility.
You should be able to license at that point.
Edit: I did have an issue once where it was trying to add the license file to one of the com.swype folders in Data/Data/. If you do the steps but still can't license, go into that folder and give R/W permissions to any com.Swype folder.

Honestly, Just google Swype Beta, Sign up, enter your info. You can then download Swype installer and then you can use Sywpe. Version 3.0 just came out a few days ago.

this didnt work for me too
Try this,
1. Uninstall swype, swype installer, or any left over cache
2. Search for any swype files or lib and delete them
3. Reboot
4. Install the apk attached
5. Log in, choose swype english, install, follow the directions on there until it's finished. Otherwise it won't license it if you don't follow all the directions from the app
http://db.tt/2GoUggF
I think the way I got it to "disable" Swype so it could license it or whatever was to just switch to the other keyboard momentarily.
well anyways im having the same problem but in simply honey 3.8
tried this, but it still won't license. I made sure i hit swype english. any suggestions?

If it is installed, go to settings, language and keyboard, uncheck Swype, then open Swype Installer and have it license it...let me know if it still doesn't work.

Glad I'm not the only one.......haven't seen the "trial ended" note but it just stopped working today and I thought maybe I had inadvertanly changed a setting.
I can't seem to install the new Swype. I rm'd Swype.apk from /system/app using ConnectBot. When the installer runs, it prompts me that it's a system app. When I select install, I get a green check mark and "Application not installed."
Are there any other files that I have to delete for it to install correctly?

Yeah there is a file or two in system/lib you gotta delete. I remember one but cannot find the other one. So Im stuck where you are too.
*edit Nevermind, you gotta reboot after you uninstall those two files [the apk and the libswypescore or whatever its called.] Then after reboot the new apk will install. Im now on the latest 3.6.84.etc whatever the version number is

I had gotten to the same point. So I copy and pasted a Swype apk from an old Rom I still have (SC 2.9.2) to my system/app to see if that would work but it didn't take. Then without removing the apk, I tried running the installer again and it took. Not sure how or why but I've got swype back.

[Q] App in /system/app but not in drawer!!

I tried to install Gmail.apk, and decided to use Root Explorer to copy it to /system/app. I changed the permissions, rebooted, and it is indeed in the folder where I left it, but nowhere to be seen in the app drawer. It doesn´t even appear on the manage applications. I want to this to more apps, but if I can´t do to one...
I tried signing the .apk and install it: gives me a parsing error;
I tried signing a .zip file and flash through xrecovery and managed to get the file in the system/app folder, but again, nothing on the app drawer.
I tried using ADB mask, and when I try to push the app into the system, it says it couldn´t install;
I tried command line, using SDK, but doesn´t recognize "adb" command. Tried console emulator, but permission denied.
Is it me or is my mobile picking up a fight with me? Can someone help?
Why dont you just try to download it from the market and install automatically that way?

Because it doesn´t appear on my market... And I also want to install more stuff, like the new blue market from pendo, so I would like to know what to do so I can continue to install more apps like this.
There will be a reason it doesnt appear in the market for you and that will be why you cant install it
WHat rom are you running?

I´m using EWJet with custom kernel, baseband 67.
Try flashing this
Reboot and login to market, accept the agreement.
Then flash this and this in that order without rebooting inbetween

Well it seems I need to do a fresh install, since I must have done something wrong to the system files... I flashed Gapps, and ever app appears except the ones from Google (Gmail, Gtalk, etc...). Is google against me today? =)
I think I´m going to flash the rom again and before rebooting, I´ll flash Gapps, what do you think?
Sounds like a plan....
let me know how it goes
No, it didn´t work... After clean install, and flashing gapps, gmail and market disappeared... Maybe some kind of incompability between the Rom and this market?
EDIT: It still appears in the /system/app... But it refuses to appear in the app drawer.
try adding the market widget to the home screen. Long press on it and n choose android widget.
That might work.

Thanks for your effort, but it doesn´t appear the market widget. It´s like the market is only a file that is filling space in the system folder, and that doesn´t have any connection to the rest. It seems this rom isn´t compatible with other markets (which is very weird...).
Thanks for the help. If someone comes up with a soltuion to my problem, I´ll be very happy to hear it.
The only thing I can think of its that you are trying to instal 2.2 versions into a 2.1 rom.
Try finding google apps from eric will's thread about his rom.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Yes I remembered that too, but didn´t know there was gmail and market that were different, meaning that what works in 2.2 may not work in 2.1... If that´s the case, I better give up, since there isn´t any other verion of blue market... Oh well, green it is.
If you flash back to stock with SEUS then make backups with titanium backup you should be able to restore the 2.1 versions of gmail.
As for blue market, I think that's just for 2.2+
