    Post [Q] Swype on NC with CM7?

    I have swype working just fine on CM7. i installed it on nightly 12 and its working ever since. You just need the apk and the .so. Some people have got it working w/o the .so but I needed it. no issues with swyping whatsoever. maybe because i use a screen protector but not sure.

    Post [USER] CM7 General Discussion thread

    I think BN runs a big risk of bad reviews and reps if they are caught selling refurbs as new. Its probably not worth it but who knows.
