How to get rid of "word completion" in SMS ?

I thought I turned all T9 and word completion off everywhere I found, but still when writing SMS I see this bar at bottom of the screen echoing my typing. It also has + sign on right.
So this is T9 right? How the hell do I get rid of it?

Hi Taajuus,
I have a 'T9' printed on the SPACE key of the slide out keyboard, you can reach through the 'FN' key.
So in SMS typing mode with the slide out Keyboard, press FN - Space, a pop up menu appears where you can configure T9 settings.
Hope that helps

There should be a slider on the actual on-screen keyboard itself to deselect T9. Give that a shot.

Yes! That did the trick, thank you!
Still there was no option to simple tick off T9, but i chose ABC and my problem was solved

Excellent find! Works for me too....geeze which I would of known that a while back...hahaha

hey, thanks!
I had been hitting 123 all the time, too!

You'd be surprised how many people don't know this and many other neat tricks. Simply because they aren't published in the manual or were too lazy to read it.

speaking of keyboard tricks. check out finger keyboard v2.1
i installed it a few days ago and cant stop using it, even when it takes half as long to use the hard keyboard
and no i dont work for them

POCKETCM Keyboard does the same thing. Depending on the layout of the keyboard, you can hit the letter "k" or hold it down and it will type in a Capital "K" ... saves from hitting SHIFT+Key. Or.. hold down a key and puts the number...
One thing this does that FingerKB does not do is that you hold down a KEY and you can CUT, COPY, or PASTE.
I used to use the stock Keyboard to CNTL-C (COPY) etc... but now, just a single keypress...

if you hit shift or go into caps on finger keyboard you have cut copy paste as wella s a buttload of other shortcuts (ie www, http, .com, .net) and a bunch of phrases like where are you? When will you be here? what are you doing? etc

[Q] How to remove cursor from always appearing in GoSMS Pro?

I'm not sure why this happens this way but just about every time I go to compose a new SMS, as soon as I start to type in the main text field, it puts up the 'select' cursor which is the little blue box that hangs over the 'W' key on the keyboard.
If I need to start typing and the first word starts with a W, I have to wait about 5 seconds for this cursor to disappear so I can then hit the letter. How the hell do I remove this and stop it from happening? I'm not sure what to look for in the settings but as of yet haven't seen anything. I'm on the latest version and it's been happening for the past few revisions.
Oh and I'm using Smart Keyboard Pro if it's possibly a keyboard issue and not the fault of Go SMS Pro itself.
[EDIT] I think the problem is that when I go to compose a new message, the cursor is blinking in the field to type but my keyboard isn't on the screen. When I click the field to get the keyboard to pop up, then it brings up the cursor which you'd normally see if you want to select text and/or past something from the clipboard. I just tested in Dolphin HD and this doesn't happen this way as the keyboard presents itself as soon as I click in the url field.

[Q] Can I swap the Smiley key with the 'enter/new line' key?

My single largest complain is the stock keyboard.
I was able to get the voice input key showing, but the need to keep the period key pressed to find the question or exclamation point seems a bit convoluted to me.
The one I can't stand is the freaking smiley key taking over the New Line key in the SMS/Hangouts app. I have to press the CAPS lock to see the New Line key
I wish I could disable the smiley key or swap it to have the new line key as default in the lowercase keyboard...

Never mind... I found 8sms app and it does exactly what I wanted, plus I like it better than the hangouts for SMS... :good:

[Q] Simple Question with Voice to Text

When using the voice to text, how do I send the message without pressing the send button? When I say "Enter" it goes to the next line. When I say "send," it types out the word. Is there a command to send the message without pressing the send key?
Edit: I am using Swiftkey.
