How to remove words from built in keyboard dictionary? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've searched around these forums and google and no one seems to have asked this question. I find that the software keyboard often suggests non-words as if they are in the dictionary (e.g. ia, pu, br, and a lot of other short words) that make mistyping correction a lot less effective than it can be. Is there any way to excise these useless words from the built in dictionary?

Dont think so just take off auto correction =D " Setting - Locale & Text - Device Keyboard - Auto-replace =D ''

Yes but I would like to keep the auto correction... for example when I type "ia" I want it to autocorrect to "is" instead of "ia", which it doesn't do because "ia" is somehow in its dictionary

Lagging text messaging

I'm not sure why it does this, but after a while, my text messaging starts lagging.
I'll finish a sentence, and it'll still be typing it. And sometimes it just takes about 2 seconds before it starts typing anything.
Is this the drivers related issue?
No Its NOT a driver issue.
If you look around you would find all you need to do is....
DISABLE XT9!!!
THis helps with Keyboard lag.
Also, If you click reply then flip open your keyboard. Sometimes you just have to wait. Remember this is a small little 400MHz processor. Not a Intel Duo Core Chip.
Alright
What exactly is XT9? As you can probably tell, im somewhat of a n00b. :/
If someone could help me with my lagging txts, and if someone could give me some link or info on how to hold a SMS Log (I cant find any legit links online) that would be supreme!

"T9, that old friend who makes mobile messaging slightly less frustrating, has made a big resurgence at this year's 3GSM with an extreme new look and attitude. T9 developer Tegic just announced a partnership with Samsung, who will use the new XT9 system in some of their upcoming devices. XT9 takes all the magic of regular T9 and turns it up a notch by adding stylus support, next-letter prediction and regional error correction, which compensates for users with fat thumbs mashing the wrong key on tiny QWERTY keyboards. Even more exciting, Tegic announced that they are working on XT9 2.0, which will incorporate speech recognition capabilities and Chinese handwriting recognition, to complement the handful of languages and special characters already supported."

Okay, so now that I know what XT9 is, lol how do I disable it?
I cant even find it in the FileExplorer program that my certain ROM runs.
AND still.., what program can I use to keep the logs of my Text Messages

Auto Suggestions Pop-Up

I am sorry if this has been answered before, but I can't find the answer anywhere. How can I change the auto suggestions from the one that's in the screenshot to the older pop-up version?
Have you looked under start-->settings-->personal-->input? Once here select the input method you wish to use and customize it all the way. This should inlcude adding your own words to the dictionary/pop up suggestions etc.
I don't know the popup you mean but it sounds to me like it belongs to an older keyboard. You need to install that keyboard, if you can find a VGA version.
Failing that you could try another keyboard like Resco or TouchPal to see how you get on. I think the T9 system in TouchPal is great, a whole other level better than the HTC keyboards.
I was wondering how to get the word suggestions to the one in this screenshot.

short version: disable T9 and use a different keyboard...

You can't use that one with HTC's keyboards. That belongs to Microsofts' built-in SIP's. I find HTC's much better and quicker to use. If you've only just changed from the 'old' word suggestions from Microsoft, maybe you need a bit more time to get used to them. Other than that, you'll have to use Microsoft SIP's instead of HTC's.
I'm sure if there was a way to resolve your issue, some wiz-kid here would have already done it
I forgot to mention this, but I am not use HTC keyboards. I am using PocketCM Keyboard v0.20.
I figured it out thanks to Steve in this form post #21: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425405
Here is the suggestion which works!
found this in another thread
changes for auto complete
IMPORTANT: previously be sure that HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\XT9SupportMSSip has a value of 0.
Simply change these two registry keys under:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\layouts\e 0010409
Ime File : \windows\xt9ime.dll change to Ime File :\windows\compime.dll
and
Layout Text : XT9 IME change to Layout Text : COMP IME
And soft reset.
suggest words in a drop down list as in WM6

[Q] Predictive text word list empty (auto correct)

Hello all,
for some reason my phone doesnt have a predictive text library of words.
for example
if i type teh instead of the, usually it will automaticall put in "the" but now when i do it it doesnt auto correct the word at all, nothing happens.
i checked my custom dictonary and if i add a word it will then correct it, but idont want to have to add every single word in that i may spell incorrectly..
so what im asking is this,
how do i get it to automatically populate words? i dont even know how to word the question, i just want my auto text to work again
im running "Enomther's TheOfficial Nexus1 - [ManupThemeOption] - v2.11.3"[/B]
i cant believe i'm the only person who is having this problem......
anyone have a suggestion on how to rebuilt my auto-correct dictionary?
its so frustrating i may just go back to pauls r23 rom :/

[Q] Bluetooth Keyboard and Spellin'

I miss the auto word suggestion / correction from the on screen keyboards. Any apps / software that you guys know of that will either give me suggestions while I type on the physical bluetooth keyboard? Or possibly something that underlines misspelled words and allows me to correct them, similar to most word processors?
Thanks!

[Q] Keyboard with individual predictions?

Hi Guys,
I was thinking about buying a Samsung Ativ S because my Android device isn't working correctly.
But there is one point which makes me thinking about staying with Android.
Therefore i wanted to ask, if there is a Swiftkey equivalent on WP?
Or is the WP keyboard also capable of adapting the predictions to the words i often type, even if i type some words in an uncommon way?
Thanks in advance
Cheers
It's quite capable of adapting to the words you type, although if the word is not in its dictionary (which is quite comprehensive, in my experience) you will need to add it manually (easily done). Correct the word (or undo an auto-correction) a few times and it will quickly learn. With that said, I don't know Swiftkey (and the keyboard can not *currently* be changed, although the ATIV S is the WP8 model that we're closest to achieving that with). It's quite possible that there are specific features of Swiftkey that you're looking for which WP8 does not provide.
Thanks for your answer. The cool thing in using Swiftkey is that if you are typing a word it is predicting the next word without typing the first letter.
Is it the same in WP?
And another question, does the WP messaging app convert a SMS to MMS after having more than 480 (three SMS) characters typed in, because that is a thing which, in my opinion is weird "feature" in a time in which nearly everyone does have a flatrate in sending SMS?
Cheers
The WP8 keyboard will offer auto-complete options for the next word based on what you've typed so far, yes. You need to manually select them - no just hitting Space, Space, Space to type the next three words - but it's very easy to do.
I don't know what the threshold is (I don't write long SMS very often, and for people who don't have unlimited SMS I use chat) but WP8 will combine sufficiently long multi-SMS messages into a single MMS, yes.
