Swype 3.9. I need some help from the pros.

So I have the cab and OEM for the newest redesigned swype. When I install it I a get an error saying that I don't have the supported device and then it loads the kb.

I can type things out but I can't swipe my finger to make words. It draws the lines and then doesn't output text.

I can share these files so that someone that knows what they are doing can fix it. Please only ask for the file if know what you are doing. Installing it as is now does nothing.

Thanks!

Here is a new cab that does not change the model name and will not mess up anything on your device! (I did not make this i found it while perusing the interwebs)

Here's the cab with the txt file included. This one should work with no additional steps.

After installing the cab I am not able to unlock my phone. It seems that my pin has been changed... What gives?

Here's what I did and its working fine now.

1. Installed the fixed cab that includes the text file.
2. After doing 1., it broke my data connection, MMS, and email accounts.
3. I reinstalled my provisioning cab and my MMS cab and then used the previously posted executable to fix my email accounts.
4. Been using the new swype ever since.

New version rocks. I would imagine if this is the first thing you install after a flash, before provisioning and setting up email accounts, then you will not have the problems I had. This version also fixed the auto-complete in text messages where before you had to type the contact name then hit backspace to delete a character before the contacts would show up. Seems to be faster also with larger keys for easier input. Word completion seems to work better also, as does remembering what I've previously typed.

Just my 2cents.

Anyone try this bad-boy on the new Sprint ROM?

Just a heads up I didn't post the cab because people have been asked to take it down. Swype was the company that wanted it removed.
