I have been using this ROM for a while now, and just realized that I could install the Swype package back to the phone.

I put the zip on my sd card, booted into recovery, (I'm using clockwork) and installed the zip.

Upon rebooting the phone, I was stuck at the boot animation for 10 minutes before deciding I did something wrong.

Is there some different way I'm supposed to install the zip? I did not see that it required GeeWiz kernel. I'm using KGB.


KGB Kernel
GeeWiz 2.8.1 Rom
Clockwork Recovery

That happens a lot after Dalvik gets wiped, and most of djp's addons do. I wait about 3-4 minutes and if it still is stuck I do a Volume-Up and Power button hold for 4+ seconds to force a reboot. See if that helps.

Was not aware I could do that. I wish I would have tried that...I re-flashed everything lol. My phone needed a clean out anyway. I did get the swype to work though

I'll keep that in mind though when I try adding the circle battery thingy. Appreciate it!

Don't touch that Swype package. Get Swype Beta, way better.

After months of trying out ICS went back to GW 2.7 cause of it's stability. ICS is surely great and tons of features but for what i use my phone for, Stability is my priority. GW 2.8.1 is lagging bad for me so i flashed back to 2.7 which works the way i want my phone to work.

The only way i am leaving GW now is a phone upgrade.

all of the batteries work. I believe it's the "K" battery. Thanks again.

I'm using ADW Launcher EX, with ICS icon pack. I've been bouncing back and forth between GeeWiz and AOKP ICS... mainly because my friend just recently got a Fassy and I'm showing him the different customizations you can do with it.

Here are some other looks I did in ADW Launcher Ex.
Here is the background I'm using now.

Thanks. Here's a video that shows you how you can make your android look like a "boss". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOah6dXYzIY

Even though GeeWiz is going strong, especially with my new circle batteries... I'm feeling out AOKP ICS... seems quite stable on build 39
