[THEME] Swype

cubanaso · Apr 19, 2010

Here is my first try and theming swype. Iam using it with the swype apk thats floating aroung in here. The only part that i havent been able to figure out how to change is the actualy tracing line on the screen, its still in the default blue color but i would love to know how to change its color.

how do you install it? as a morph theme? flash? unzip to folders? rename to apk file? looks good!

It's a morph that will only work with the free version of metamorph since it only has a .thm file.

Thanks, just unzip the contents into your android themes folder and install with metamorph

Looks good, but my Metamorph (free) won't load it.

same here...

it Works fine.all you need to do its change the input back to swype because changing the theme causes it to switch to the android default keyboard. Did You unzip the contents and install using the metamorph theme file? In your sdcard you should have android themes/swype_black_n_blue/ then inside you should see the .thm file and folder. Are you guys also using the swype that was floating around here?

I'm using the actual Swype Beta, and I had originally just tried it from the .zip. When I extract it to Android themes and try to load it from the existing themes(even after replacing it) MM says "the target systems/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk does not exist, skipping"

Its because metamorph only works in system/app/ atm so u have to push your swype.apk to that folder.

Yeah, I didn't take the route of pushing the apk back into the phone. Kinda sucks no one has got it working.

Re: Swype Theme

Works fine for me. Just push swype to /system/app and it works without a hitch. Looks great! Can I request a buuf theme?

cubanaso · Apr 19, 2010

Glad to hear out works for you. Buff theme? Dont really know what that is, lol

sh0ebox · Apr 19, 2010

It would end up looking something like this:

That's the Buuf themed HTC_IME that gIMpSTa made. Buuf is a pretty popular theme theme that can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=574139

Good job, I'm working on a black and white theme so the keys are all black with white letters. I will prob just have it as a apk to install but meta morph might be my 2nd attempt at other colors...keep up the good work!

britoso · Apr 19, 2010

works great. had to remove the folder nesting though.

deanesn · Apr 19, 2010

how about HTC's keyboard look?

cubanaso · Apr 19, 2010

The buff theme looks real cool, ill go ahead and work on that tonight, as for the htc theme ill also put that on my list. Does anyone care to try and figure out how to change the color of the tracing line? i figure that its in one of the xml files but iam having a hard time accessing them.

I dont understand, what do you mean by moving the apk to system/app. all you need to do is unzip the file into your androidthemes folder then apply the .thm file using metamorph. then your all set.
