Download ShapeWriter APK

Posted on June 22, 2010 by vivin

I tried to install ShapeWriter from the Android Marketplace yesterday and couldn't find it (I was trying to reinstall it after flashing my phone with Cyanogenmod 5.0.8). After searching the interwebs, I found out that it had been removed from the marketplace on June 20th indefinitely (supposedly for QA issues). Luckily I had backed up the app using MyBackup Pro and still had the APK, so I was able to reinstall it. I'm putting the APK up here for anyone who needs to reinstall ShapeWriter.

    I love you so much! The Froyo OTA update bricked my phone, and shapewriter was my only real casualty. You’ve made me very happy. 🙂

    THANK YOU!!!!! YOU ARE TRULY A LIFESAVER!!! Had to Factory Data Reset and for some reason (prob because app was taken off market) my back up program would NOT back it up!! I have no physical keyboard and the stock android keyboard is just plain attrocious-I absolutely could not have lived without this app…. you have done the world a valuable service!

    Here’s a good link for Shapewriter 3.09. This was the last version before it was pulled. I installed and it works great.

    Swype with Red [I have a Droid Incredible and this works perfectly]

    BloodiedWraith has hooked us up with something that so many of you have been asking for. Swype BETA with no installer and no email signup. Oh, and he also brings it to you in 3 different colors schemes.

    Download Original: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IUC7Q3PR (http://bit.ly/dcj6DZ)

    Download Red: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2LMMLJX3 (http://bit.ly/aRguj5)

    That sounds strange… I had that problem with Angry Birds — wasn’t able to solve that. Not sure if it’s the same issue you’re facing.
