Editing stock keyboard dictionary - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the topic suggests I want to know how to take words OUT of the dictionary. I'm sick of the word "niggardly" coming up. It auto corrects to that all the time. Also when I type "Guy" it always capitalizes the G. Anyone got any ideas on how to do this?

Depending on what ROM ur on....
Go to settings/ language & keyboard / user dictionary
I hate the guy going to Guy also but its a name so its capitalized. Next time type it, tap on the word and it should give the option "Tap to add"
Good luck

I'm on kushdeck. Sorry should have clarified that. I know I can add words the way you suggested but there's no way to delete them? I know Guy is a name but seriously ...who the hell knows someone named Guy? His mother should be shot if you do. I don't know anyone who uses the word niggardly either. They should also be shot. Just saying. I'd love to delete both of those if possible. Thanks for the response btw!

[Q] My favorite keyboard is gone! :'(

I love docs 1.2 rom. killer23d put it up a while back and i use that one whenever im not satisfied with a new rom. i think i might have found a rom that i like but it doesnt have that awesome keyboard that i am used too. does anyone know how i can take the keyboard off of the 1.2 rom and put it onto any other rom? PLEASE?! thanks!
Does anyone know how i can put the white multi touch keyboard on my sgs and wherebi can download it? Idk how to install via cwm. I tried using
that to install something else and it pretty much messed up my phone and i had to reinstall the rom. Thanks.
Might get some more bites if you listed the name of the keyboard you want.
Grrrr... I forgot which one it was! It was all white. And i rhink it was titled as an android keyboard. Maybe a droid x ordroid 2 keyboard?

Ooops, hit thanks, instead of quote.
By the way, search for 2.3 gingerbread keyboard on these forums. This is very similar to android 2.1 keyboard, only better. I too am a fan of 2.1 android keyboard, well, until i came across the 2.3 keyboard.
I want to use it, but i serously hate HATE that it doesnt vibrate on keypress

I think a small compromise is needed. Try using "better keyboard" to see if that can provide u some temp relief while some dev tries to figure this out.

mine doesnt either.. i dont understand that. i had to switch to handcent.
I have the same issue with the spaces on Swype here.
Found another issue with it....the speech to text doesn't work either anyone else have this issue?
Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt using XDA Premium App
I thought it was supposed to put spaces automatically.
I figured it was an option I couldn't figure out how to turn on.
The no spaces thing has been discussed quite extensively already, and there is a huge Swype thread already.
It's not auto-spacing because Swype respects text fields formats, and for some reason HTC set the SMS message text field up similar to a web address field.
To the OP. You will here this a lot, on any forum. Do a search before posting a new thread. Or at least browse a page or two to see if the topic you are refering to is already in discussion.
Only had to go to page 2 and at the top is the already existing thread on swype

Dont take this as me being rude please. Someone at some point is going to say it no matter where you go. It helps keep the threads clean. And help people find things easier if there arent multiple threads about the same thing.

Is your phone stock? It is seeming more and more to me that stock phones are having major issues with everything. My wife had a stock LG Optimus S and its barely a month old and already having major issues with handling and weird random stuff like what you just explained. Can anyone else confirm this? I have no problems with my Zio other then wifi cutting out. That's been this particular sets only problem. I keep up on this thing, stock phones don't have the control to keep caches free and clear and so on.
Sent from my Zio using XDA Premium App
Yes its all stock. And also I can't/don't know how to set my mp3 ringtones to my contacts. Like, an mp3 for one contact, a different mp3 for another contact, so I can know who is calling me just by hearing which mp3 is ringing.

The answers to your questions are all in reading around here. Not gonna spoon feed you. Assigning a custom ringtone to a specific person is really easy and if you can't do it you need a less smartphone because its obviously too smart for you.

Spoon feed? Nah nah, ever since the "upgrade to 2.2" the option to set different mp3s to different contacts is no longer showing up when editing a/any contact. So ill disregard ur lil smart a** reply. I ain't all tech-y with smartphones and stuff, I just want to set it like before the 2.2 so if I'm at work welding or playing baseball with my kids, I can hear who's calling without having to stop mid-weld or mid-pitch just to see who's calling. Yeah its probly already answered somewhere in hear but I ain't searchin n searchin when HOPEFULLY I can just ask, post, and just check back later for someones appreciated help, not some sh** like spoon feed crap. If ud rather reply with that crap and not with something helpful to what's being asked then just be an ass with someone who is already being an ass. L8Rs.

Wow, this is so simple. I will go ahead and tell you how to do it. Got to your contacts, find the one you want to set the ringtone for and hit the menu button, get this it actually pops up a menu that has some options, one of which is "Ringtone" Select "Ringtone" Then it will pop another menu (tricky I know) bear with me here, choose between Android System or User Added Ringtones or Zedge or whatever other ringtone apps you might have. The next step is all up to you just pick the ringtone you want and VIOLA!!!!!! /discussion
Alright can we stop the bashing on others and get back to the subject.

Everything is koo up untill I select ringtone, after I select it, a list of stock tones (that I know I didn't put in) come up starting with default, Android beat box, sunshine, rainy day, waterfall or something like those. Never does it ask Android ringtones or user submitted tones or anything of that nature.

I SOLVED MY OWN PROBLEM! I WENT TO MUSIC, LONG PRESSED A SONG, SELECTED "SET AS RINGTONE". HOME SCREEN, THEN CONTACTS, SELECTED THE CONTACT, MENU, OPTIONS, RINGTONE, THEEEEN IT WAS IN THE LIST TO PICK FROM ALONG WITH THE STOCK ONES! No one came close to suggesting that process. But thanks anyways.

Removing swype words

Hey, I tried searching, but the search function is pretty much useless with keywords like "swype"....
Does anyone know how to remove words from the swype dictionary? For instance, when I press "1" it fills in "10q" instead. And with "2" it wants to do "2moro" or "2nite." I'm not so lazy that I can't type "tomorrow" or "tonight," so I would like to take those entries as well as a few others out of the possible-words list.
Google searches have given results such as, "you can only delete words you added." I don't think that's true though, so hopefully someone here at XDA can enlighten me.

You're supposed to type the word you dont want, then highlight it, hit swype key and it'll give you a delete option. Gets tedious after a while. Id like to just edit the dictionary file manually.

Yeah, I tried that, but I can't get a delete option by pressing the swype key, unless it's a word that I added myself, like slang and vulgarities.
Do you have 10q and 2moro in your dictionary? I assume you do. Can you delete them?

If im not mistaken, I think you've already been told not to bump your own thread on same day posted. I don't really read names, so I might be mistaken.
That's the first time I've ever bumped any post, so I think you are indeed mistaken.

No, I haven't, but I have a feeling that method would only do one of two things:
1. Remove only words that I have added to the dictionary
Or
2. Remove every word from the dictionary
Neither of those will accomplish what I am trying to do, but thanks for trying to help

I have come across a bunch of useless/nonsense words with Swype...
However, after doing some digging, I think I've found that /assets/files/EnglishUS.zdb.le is either the whole dictionary or at least a part of it. People who want to change their language manipulate the .zdb.le files within /assets/files, not the actual files themselves (for instance, renaming Dutch.zdb.le to EnglishUS.zdb.le). So it seems to me that .zbd.le files have to be related to the dictionary database.
Unfortunately, I don't know what to do with the file.......

Any of you guys have any luck yet? I've looked all over the Swype forums, and it doesn't seem like the guys at Swype want to give users the option to delete bull**** nonsense words, even with many people complaining. I was thinking there has to be some developer who has found a way to do this, and release it on a rom.

At the very bottom you will see a bar - a small one. Type there. Hit enter when done
It's basically like a large group AIM chat. The right sidebar will show you who is all in. At the very top you might see a blue link - that's your nightly Liberty build.
And I highly advise against asking for an ETA Dangerous things might happen...
