How To Remove Google Search Predictive Text - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay I seriously HATE the predictive text when searching Google on any version of ANY ROM. I cannot disable it, I have tried taking it off the google settings, and I have tried turning off every predictive text function in cyanogen. Nothing works. It is so stupid, and I hate reading how some people like it. It lags my phone. I can type really fast and accurately so I don't need stupid suggestions that are irrelevant to what I am searching for lagging me out so I can't even type a sentace without missing 5 letters at a time.
Anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

I've never had that issue with the predictive text that I remember.

That it lags, or that it has NO OPTION to disable? And I'm running the latest cyanogen...

Crazy voice to text problem

This crazy problem started last week with my Galaxy S running Serendipity ROM.
Now, when I want to compose a text or email with voice, it isn't using english. I thought it was Spanish at first (no I can't speak Spanish). But sometimes it's typing different words or even numbers for the same words I speak.
I say "this is a test", and I get, "nosotras". As I'm typing this, it is now typing the same thing for the same words. It wasn't doing that yesterday. three times I got three different responses.
I have made sure that English is selected in settings. the only thing I can think of that has changed in the last couple of weeks (months even) is I re-installed Google voice app. The problem started a day or two after that, the best i can recall. I've been running this ROM since I first got the phone two years ago. I don't install new software very often.
So, what's going on with my phone? Some crazy virus? Has the phone become self aware and decided to toy with me? Voice text is one of my most favorite features, i really want it to work again.
Try clearing the data in the 3 voice programs and maybe Google voice too.
Which program are you using for your speech-to-text conversion? I'm using Google Voice myself, but I don't see any built-in conversion software. Is it tied to the keyboard program you're using?
If you can't get anything else to work, you can try the newest Swype beta; it has Dragon conversion software built in, and in my experience, it works pretty well.
I'm not sure what program it is. It came with the Serendipity ROM. I'll have to dig around and find out.
How/where would i clean my programs?

Go to settings - applications - manage applications, then find the individual applications. Click the app, and then the "clear data" button. That will reset the offending app's data.
Thank you very much. clearing the data worked. I hope it stays fixed. I think the one that fixed it was clearing the swype keyboard. I never liked the swype KB, I should just remove it if it's going to cause trouble.
Thanks again.

Text correction way too aggressive

Anyone else have serious issue with how damn aggressive the LG G2's text correction is? I've tried it on every level all the way down to mild, and it still insists on replacing words that I have spelled correctly with entirely different words which is frustrating as hell. I understand spell correction and text prediction, however this is something different. I could attempt to send the text "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" and it might decide to replace "fox" with "cat" and "jumps" with "flies". It's insane. Even if I have spelled the word correctly the damn thing just up and decides I must be trying to say something else, and I end up having to go back and basically retype the word and then force it to use what I typed. I tried typing $20 and it replaced it with "2am"!! What the hell!

I've been experiencing that too. Frustrating as hell. I ended up installing a modified google keyboard that has the number row since that's what I really like about the stock one. Works great plus they're themed.

Does the ROM you use, use the G3 keyboard like XDABBEB'S? If so then try the G2 keyboard. I had the same issue until I started using G2 one.

Thank you, this was the problem. Thing is, I even installed the Google Keyboard from the Play Store and it also replaced a lot of words, but I didnt trial it long enough to notice any real difference. The G2 keyboard seems to be working perfectly, only replacing typos and not full blown making auto-suggestions.

Phone re-typing words as I delete them

Hello XDA,
Not sure how to phrase this and I don't know how to show you otherwise.
On my phone when writing if i have to erase letters using backspace this happens.
Let's say < means backspace has been used. I try to finish the word "hello"
Helli< (erase "I")
HellO<hell<HelloHell< (when erase the "I" it types out "Hello" again, sometimesthe whole word, sometimes just a part of it)
If you understand this.... When I use backspace the phoner re-types the word i had just written. I had the same problem on my Nexus 5(slimrom) as my Nexus 6 (android 5.1.1 rooted, leankernel). Especially in Facebook via Chrome. Maybe only there. :silly:
It does'nt alwaysh appen though so maybe it's an application running in the background that messes this up. Anyone have ideas? I can provide pictures when it happens again.
I've had this happen on the Facebook app with the SwiftKey keyboard. I don't know if the problem is with the app or the keyboard though, and I haven't found or looked for a fix for it.

Voice to text issue.

Hi all.
I just loaded Repulsa's v5.1 ROM and I'm not getting the voice to text that I'd prefer. Typically when I use, say, google voice, the text is typed as I speak, directly into the text box. Right now I'm getting the below picture, where it then gives you choices regarding what you said (for accuracy). It's very slow this way.
All texting programs are having the same problem.
This is difficult to describe, but does anyone have a solution?
I did install the Google App, since VTT does not work at all without it.
Thank you!
you should ask that question in that Rom thread, not here
Thank goodness Android is mature and feature rich enough I don't have to flash ROM's anymore! I'm glad those days are over for me lol. I spent a lot of time on it.

Of course, and I have. But this could lead to answers that could help others as well. But thank you.
I found the solution, for anyone looking for it in the future:
Firstly; the Google app is required (Play Store), then you must turn on Google Voice Typing: Language and Input/ On-Screen Keyboard/ Manage Keyboards/ Google Voice Typing, turn ON.
Voilà.
