I feel your pain. Thats why I am glad I know how to help you! Go to http://swypeinc.com/ and sign up to be a beta tester. Then you can download and install the most current beta version, which is even newer than the one currently on the captivate! There, doesnt that make you feel better?  Logged Fancythreads Newbie Karma: +0/-0 Offline Posts: 3 Re: Lost Swype after Froyo « Reply #2 on: July 05, 2011, 01:41:17 PM » Quote from: ironjoey on July 05, 2011, 12:16:38 PM i had the same problem.

There, doesnt that make you feel better?  Sorry it doesn't ...I signed up for the beta but my ATT will not allow installation of apps that did not come from Android Market.  This is the message I received when I tried to install the app "For security, your phone is set to block installation of applications not obtained from Android Market." Do you have anymore suggestions? Logged MommehK I came from Mars! :p Administrator Karma: +13/-1 Offline Posts: 1236 Old enough to know better, too tired to care...

Actually, I went to the Swype Beta forum and it states that Swype 3.0 cannot be installed on a phone that has a factory installation--that it will not work. Swype has to be updated by ATT and Swype has sent the update to ATT and they have to initiate the update to the system. ATT has not done this yet. So it looks like my phone stays as is until ATT gets around to the update.

The custom rom allowed me to do third party install. Didnt think about that sorry. If AT&T has the upgrade, maybe you could try going to a AT&T store. They migfht be able to help you out. You should be able to do the sideload wonder machine route though....
