Flashed neutrino 2.9 this morning and it is AWESOME! It was my first time ever flashing anything onto my phone, and everything worked out great! There are only 2 things I am wondering about...

First off, am I able to get swype set as my input method? I realize it's a pretty stripped down rom and swype has most likely been removed to cut down on size or increase efficiency etc. I've tried installing the swype beta, and managed to get the installer installed (yeah it's kind of an odd system, you download and install the installer to install swype) but for whatever reason when I type in the user/pass to get the actual swype installed, it just sits there forever and doesn't do anything. I've also just tried restoring swype with titanium backup from the backup I did on my stock rom, but it just starts a force-close loop until I set the input method back to the regular keyboard.

Secondly, and this is extremely minor, when I set up the fingerprint unlock there doesn't seem to be any backup unlock system for it. In the stock rom as we all know there is a pin that you can set to unlock as an alternative to swiping your finger on the reader. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but it would be a bit of a pain in the ass if I was to drop my phone and a rock smashed the fingerprint sensor, or my index fingers got chopped off in some freak accident haha.

All input greatly appreciated! Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, didn't seem quite appropriate to be posting over in the development section for something like this though.

*EDIT*

Swype problem solved. Looks like there was something wrong with the swype beta installer. After force closing it and opening it again it worked just fine, and swype is now installed and working (so far) perfectly!

So... Sort of a bump, but I ran into a new problem today.

For some reason when charging my phone, it only charges to 92%. I had it plugged in for about 12-13 hours, and it just seemed to stop charging. I pulled the battery, rebooted the phone, plugged it back in, etc. Didn't seem to do anything.

Anybody run into this one and know of a solution?

was the fingerprint pin bypass every addressed?

i just started using 2.91gt+ and i won't enable the fingerprint lock with out a bypass pin...

i'm a marine engineer so my hands are constantly in and out of oil, fuel and fast orange so i've had days where on the stock rom it wouldn't even recognize i swiped my finger over it at all
