How to get rid of suggestion bar when typing up texts and messages

Hi
I'm using Fitaly as my default keyboard. I find that whenever I type up a text message/email that the suggestion bar gets confused with this. When I use Fitaly to edit my mistakes, the bar (the gray one along the top of the text area, with a plus sign to the right to add words to the dictionary), tends to get confused and mis-correct my errors.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to turn this thing off. Can anyone help me out?

Figured it out myself. The bar only displays when the keyboards have been set to T9 rather than ABC. Easy!

HOW TO CUSTOMIZE/PIMP out YOUR G1 SMS/MMS EXPERIENCE!!!! BBOYWHODINI’S WAY!!!!

I'm at work so there may be mistakes so just let me know!
You will need to download:
Cool Texter(An app that allows you to never send boring messages anymore, this app makes your texts look cool!)
Handcent Sms (send sms/mms with customized options.
Better keyboard (An alternate on screen keyboard)
After downloading all of the apps you will have to:
Go to Setttings>Locale & text>Better Keyboard
Go to anywhere where you can use the on screen keyboard. Long press on the text field. There will be a pop up. Click Input method>Better Keyboard. When you click on the text field you should see a different on screen keyboard. (If you go to Better Keyboard setting you can change the skin of the on screen keyboard.)
Open Cool Texter
-Making a signature for texting.
-Click Name Maker and type what you want the signature to be. (If you want to have the letters looking creative you can type first in the Cool Text top field box and click on the text field on the bottom and it will automatically copy the new style of the text. There is an option in the middle to change the style.) Choose the signature that you like and click on it and it will automatically copy it.
Open Handcent Sms
Click Menu>Settings
You can change almost everything. I will explain the signature part only cause I had you create one in Cool Texter
.
Click on Enable signature>Personal signature than in the text field box with the keyboard open press Menu + V. Click Ok.
There you go enjoy. There will be many questions just ask. The more you check the setting and try the apps out you will see more things. You can edit individual setting to different people you are texting. At least from my experience.

[Q] No text in pop up selections

I just rooted my Nook Color, and I'm having a strange issue. When I long press on some menus, I will receive the pop up box but the text will be missing.
For example - I open File Manager and long press on a file. The icons appear, but the words are blank. Once I touch the item i want, THEN the text will appear briefly (ie. Copy, Paste)
It's not just on File Manger though - which I've uninstalled/reinstalled.
Any ideas?

This is a problem with the way that the B&N software is themed. The menus where this happens has text, it's just white on white making it in effect invisible. There's not a solution yet that I'm aware of, but in some apps you can hold your finger on the menu options which highlights them, making them legible.

Thanks
Thanks for the reply. I was about to start "unrooting" to see if i'd done something wrong. Other than that, this thing is great!

[Q] Gingerbread: Text selection quirks

Since upgrading to Gingerbread I have been aware of the new text selection features, i.e. dragging the little pin to move the cursor. What I can't get right though is selecting text.
Previously I could double-tap and drag in order to highlight words, which made sense, but now whenever I double-tap anything, I get the "Cut" and "Copy" menu before I can even start to drag. The two separate pins don't ever appear that way.
The only way I can seem to make it work is by holding on a word, picking "Select word" and then dragging the two pins when they appear, which seems a little drawn out compared to before.
Anyone any clues? Have the gestures changed? Am I doing something wrong or is this just the way it works now? Wondering if someone with a Nexus S or other custom Gingerbread ROMs can also confirm.

I don't know in which apps you have tried this, but the way it works in the browser and gmail (checked right now) is that you:
1.Tap and hold to go into text-selection mode
2.Drag your finger over the text you want to copy
3.Adjust with arrows as you see fit
4.Click on the selected text to copy it
5.Profit

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ah ha, I see, that seems to work for reading emails and web pages. I was more meaning inside text-entry boxes like in the SMS app, Google Talk, etc.

Question Help - s pen not bringing up onscreen kb in chrome

Hi boys n gals. I have a weird one and can not figure it out.
I recently noticed that whenever I use s pen and press on a text field inside chrome it will not bring up on screen kb. It will pop if I point to address bar or any other text field within system but not anything in chrome in webpages or Google search bar on Google page. Even here on title or text box, when I bring the pen near screen it shows the blue draw icon that I am sure it didn't before and that's it, it does nothing. Sometimes the blue draw icon wont show, just the small dot . On screen kb comes on fine if I press these fields with finger but not with s pen. I'm lost, I tried the usual restart tablet clear caches but no bueno. Anyone have any pointers ?
Thank you
