[Q] Keyboard shortcuts (word substitution) - LG Optimus 4X HD

I was trying to find out the way to setup keyboard text shortcuts (i.e. word substitution) to save typing, but with no avail yet. ICS (maybe depending on device) should have the option to add shortcuts under Personal dictionary, but our 4X HD doesn't seem to have this feature... Any ideas where to find it or which app to use as a substitute?

Stopping the on-screen keyboard popping up?

i have a touch pro (sorry if this doesn't belong here, but i assumed that they were basically the same) and whenever i go anywhere that has text input, the on-screen keyboard pops up and fills most of the screen, even when I have the inbuilt keyboard popped out.
Is there any way I can get it to stay hidden until I press the show/hide button?
There's a setting in Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool that fixes this.
Unfortunately it doesn't work in Opera due to Opera's bad handling of the keyboard. If you have problems with the SIP popping up in opera in landscape, install nullkb and look for an application that allows you to set different SIPs in portrait and landscape.
Cheers for the quick reply, I'll give these a go.

copy/paste & word spelling

is there a program out there that can spell out the words while u texting like the "DASH".or so is it any way you can copy/paste right from the Internet Browser
With Android 1.5, the Locale & Text settings allow you to program your own words into the dictionary, and set keyboard settings (like auto-correction). I'm sure auto-correction on the hardware keyboard is possible on 1.1 still, but I can't remember where.
As for copy/paste, you can do so in mail and browser by holding the shift key on the keyboard and selecting with your finger or the trackball. On the browser, the menu also includes a "select text" option.
Thz alot ill do that now

Can I disable the slide pop-up menu & dialer???

Hi, I've been looking for an answer for this for weeks now and all the solutions I found are for a NIKI and not for my Sprint HTC Pro (stock rom) all I need is a way to disable the menu that pop-up when I slide keyboard. This is really annoying and if I'm Opera or in any other program and I slide the keyboard to type something, the dialer(contact search) pop-up!! I have to close it in order to continue what i was doing.
Thanks!!!
are you talking about the SIP...not sure what pop up menu you are talking about when you open the keyboard

FEATURES
Choose your favorite way to type.
Touch-type like usual, or combine adjacent keys into COMPACT KEYS so they're easier to press. Slide your finger over words using WORD TRACING (instead of touching each individual letter).
The SUGGESTION BAR is smart and easy to use.
Choose words with just one swipe, even if they're not visible at first. A built-in English LANGUAGE DICTIONARY is included (and many other languages are available for download). Add new words to your personal CUSTOM DICTIONARY. BLACK LIST words you don't want to show up anymore.
Use WORD REPLACEMENTS to automatically expand abbreviations.
Tired of always typing "be right there"? Try "brt". You can even create your own.
The TOOL BAR provides a ton of functionality in a small amount of space.
You can scroll, drag, or flick through the available buttons.
Use SPEECH-TO-TEXT to transform your spoken words into text.
TRANSLATE your text to dozens of different languages.
CUT, COPY, and PASTE with a built-in CLIPBOARD.
Text you copy is saved so you can access it later. Remove anything you don't want to keep.
FULL-SCREEN MODE provides TEXT SELECTION HANDLES and a MAGNIFIER.
Accurately select portions of text to edit or copy.
The CHARACTER MAP makes more Unicode characters accessible.
Set up your own list of favorites for easy access. Includes Emoji on Android 4.1 devices.
Use the CAMERA OVERLAY* to see where you're going.
Watch what's in front of you while you type on the go. (* Android 2.3 or newer only.)
Create custom ACTIONS triggered by GESTURES or device buttons.
Want to swipe left to delete the previous word? Want your device's search button to activate the camera overlay? Do all this and more.
A DYNAMIC UI means you can customize the keyboard so it's perfect for you.
Are the keys too tall for your liking? Make them shorter. Don't like the ARROW KEYS? Hide them. Many things can be tweaked directly from the tool bar.
Change the keyboard's look with downloadable THEMES.
You can use the built-in THEME EDITOR to create your own themes, or customize existing themes with your chosen fonts and colors. You can even use themes designed for other keyboards!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I guess I was sort of hoping the LDPI phones have gone the way of the dinosaur. ;-) Was also thinking maybe Ultra is a little too heavy weight for lower-spec'd phones.
I'll definitely look into this. The medium DPI images should be scaled down on-the-fly on LDPI devices, but I think keeping Android 1.5 (Cupcake) support broke this.
I like to use forever !!!!! Link ?
Looks like a nice app

[Q] Removing hardware keyboard shortcuts?

Hi, does anyone know how to remove the hardware keyboard shortcuts? For example, when I push I and E on the keyboard at the same time when typing it opens up the Phone dialler program.
I'm on Cyanogenmod 10 if that makes any difference. I have had a look in settings and can't see anything obvious.
Thanks
The settings for the shortcuts are under accessibility. I went through and removed them all because I had the same problem.
Thanks, looks like that is not an option in Accessibility for Cyanogenmod so I'll raise it with them.
