Does the Moto X Process /data/local.prop Settings?... - Moto X Q&A

Hey All,
I tried a quick search on this, but the seach function doesn't appear to do well when searching for words connected with a "." (You'd be surprised how many posts in these forums contain the word "locale"! ).
Anyway, I'm trying to sort out whether or not the stock Moto X ROMs process /data/local.prop settings. Do they?
Thanks!
cheers,
john

Problems with Word Completion

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Recently my Tilt starting having an issue where the "word completion" feature doesn't work anymore. I've checked under Start | Settings | Personal | Input | Word Completion. The setting for Suggest words when entering text is checked and set for:
Suggest after entering 2 letters.
Suggest 4 words.
I think I've located the problem starting after I loaded KaiserTweak. I recently upgraded to a new ROM and it started working again. However, after I reloaded KaiserTweak, it seem to stop working.
Has anyone experience this. It is extremely annoying and makes the device less "one-handed".
Any help or ideas to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
DG
Me too!
I was just about to post the exact same thing... only that I've not pinned it down to KaiserTweak... but that's not to say I disagree... that was certainly one of my suspects (along with spbFullKeyboard and some others).
In my case, this is the standard (T-Mobile) ROM... no custom ROM (there did seem some similar problem reported with one of the custom ROMs).
Like you, all the settings seem fine - both within Windows/Settings and also those shown by KaiserTweak. But I get no word completion when typing emails, texts, no suggestions when entering email addresses etc.
Any suggestions gratefully received...
i had the same problem w/ auto complete & att had me rma the phone...didnt have the problem w/ the 2nd phone.
When I upgraded the ROM, it initially worked. Like a champ. After I started re-loading all my software spb Mobile Shell, KaiserTweak, iguidance 4, dutty throys 3g comm mgr, pocket CM, Mort Script, Total Commander, Wisbar lite, etc it stopped working. So, I don't think it is the device itself. Something is mucking it up afterwards.
Found The Solution To Word Completion!
***Solution: disable XT9 under KaiserTweak and do a soft reset***
I'm using the 3/7/08 XML version of KaiserTweak. Under recent versions there is a section called Text Messages
Text Messages
---Sent Notifications
---XT9
---Threaded SMS (WM6.1 only)
XT9 is disabled by default. KaiserTweak recommends enabling this. If I enable it, I lose the ability to do word completion. However, here is the twist -- if you disable it to regain the word completion, you MUST do a soft reset for it to take effect. After the soft reset, your word completion will work again.
I don't know if there is a way to enable/disable the XT9 on the fly from a keyboard. I saw several references for other PDA models where they talked about this and being in XT9 mode disables word completion, but toggling back to abc mode fixes it. I'm disabling for now so I can have my word completion.

Old -
Thanks for the reply. Sorry for the duplicate question/post. However, it is not always expedient to wade through the useless posts and commentary to get to the solution. The post you quoted is evidence of that. Just a bunch of ranting and raving. I'll never understand why people need to comment other than a solution. Just my 2 cents worth. However, now I've contributed to the ranting. Dammit, I hate when I do that....
DG
Wading? It was the same topic!
Fair enough, although it's not really wading.
"Autocomplete Has Stopped Working" was the topic heading, and it was asked in post # 1, and answered in post # 2.
Glad your phone is working.

Strange keyboard problems

Hi everyone
Have noticed a couple of strange problems while using the slide out keyboard on my kaiser.
Whenever im typing anything and i press the space key it will sometimes put the space after the first letter of the next word instead of between the two words, so the first letter of the next word is now stuck on the end of the last word! (did my best at describing that!)
And also sometimes when i press the delete key it will delete whats in front instead of whats behind so i then have to press the function key to change it back.
Has anyone else experienced either of these problems?
Regards
Jamzi
Have you even used the SEARCH function?
Are you using a stock or cooked ROM? I'm going to assume you're running a custom ROM, since I've seen this problem being described several times in regard to custom ROMs.
Ig uesst hisi sy ourp roblem...

Hope this helps...
Yes i have used the search function and found nothing thats why im asking, thanks for asking though.
At the moment im using duttys april 29th rom but have noticed on most of the roms ive used apart from the stock one i think.
Thank you for your help i'll give that a try.
Regards
Jamzi
I'm sorry for nagging, but:
If you had read Dutty's Wiki first (link provided in second post Dutty's ROM thread), you would have found:
Q: How do I get back auto complete while typing in the “to” fields or any where else? How do I get rid of xt9? How do I fix my keyboard from typing slow or pausing?
A: Download this file (disable xt9) and install it. Then power the phone off and on.

And using keywords from your original question, I found multiple threads and posts answering your questions. Please use the Google search function, since it seems to be more efficient than the builtin one.
Don't worry, this sermon isn't personally directed to you, but to all those asking already answered questions. I just can't help it sometimes.
If you'll excuse me, I want to get back to my knitting...
No worries mate, i appreciate your help.
Regards
Jamzi
had exactly the same problems as youre describing, was about to ditch duttys rom for a new one ... but i'll try this first
surely this affects more users? oh well i've not seen the topic come up , thanks for the advice trying now
EDIT:
Fixes it fine ta!

UNlock only with the "Enter"-Button

Hi guys
I'm looking for a possibility to unlock the Diamond only with the "Enter"-Button.
Maybe a kind of enhancement for the keylock settings - additional or instead of the setup with the ON/OFF-Button.
I think there should be somewhere a registry entry or something, which could be changed.
Because of the buried position of the button, there is no accidentally operation but it's within easy reach.
Thanks in advance!
(P.S. Sorry for my english - it's not my native language )
How about zoom in like unlock?
By using finger gestures around the enter button I mean.
There is no Unlock application pressing or circling the <Enter> button, yet. But check this thread for similar locking and unlocking questions, answers and the currently available solutions, like this one. Oh, and your English is fine! But next time, please first try searching before starting a new thread ;-)
Thanks a lot for the very fast responses.
@Mandragore
I know. I found the other threads only a few hours after I started my own - shame on me!
...but there are still no answers for what I'm looking for.
Perhaps, I'm the only one who thinks, it would be a good solution with the <Enter> button.

That's what I wrote, there aren't any <Enter> button solutions. Yet.. Maybe, soon, who knows.. Because if you read the other threads, you'll find you're not the only one who thinks like you

Gmail - strange inbox items, "no text in body"

Hey guys, I haven't been able to find anything about this elsewhere. It's a bit strange to me to search for as well..
I've seen 3 of these pop up over time and can't for the life of me know if these used to be actual messages or are some new items coming in.
I'm still looking around but I thought any info would be helpful if anyone had any to share.

Module for automatic smart quotes for keyboards?

Hello guys.
Just posting out of curiousity if it is possible to create a module that automatically inserts smart quotes instead of usual ones done with autocorrect while typing.
For example, the first sentence features auto quotations:
Hey there, I'm curious to know if there's any method of doing this, it'll be a godsend if it's possible.
And with smart quotes:
Hey there, I’m curious to know if there’s any method of doing this, it’ll be a godsend if it’s possible.
Just for those who don't know the different between 'smart quotes' and general ones.
Thanks in advance.
