Swype 2.7Download

So here is the right procedure:
1. Make sure you have root
2. Make sure you have /system mounted rw
3. Switch the keyboard to Samsung
4. Use app killer to kill the Swype app (if you don't find it then you are not using the correct app killer)
5. delete all 3 Swype files (i recommend a backup first)
Those are:
/system/app/Swype.apk
/system/app/Swype.odex
/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
6. delete everything in /data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod
7. reboot (just in case check if wype files are realy gone)
8. copy the 3 new swype files to
/system/app/Swype.apk
/system/app/Swype.odex
/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
9. install the Swype.apk (I've done it from the external_sd)
10. reboot
