When I would send an SMS on my Wizard using the keyboard, the system would automatically capitalize the first word of a sentence (and "I" or "I'm"), insert apostrophes in contractions, and remember words I used (sometimes). The input on my Fuze will capitalize the first word, but that's the extent of the spell checking it does. Is there any way to set it to something more similar to the WM5 spell checking? I've played with some of the options, but haven't stumbled upon the correct configuration as yet.
I would like this, too.
I got used to it in my 8525 and I miss it on my Fuze.
Since someone else seems interested in this, I'll mention what I did to 'solve' the problem. You have to turn T9 on (Fn + right-arrow). It behaves just like T9 normally does, but at least it will correct minor spelling errors on-the-fly and allow you to add custom words to the dictionary.
I just wish I could turn off the 'suggestion' line that appears. Oh well...
I should also mention T9 needs to be turned on every time I try to use the hardware keyboard. For some reason, it likes to turn itself off. Is there any way (registry hack) to force T9 over ABC mode?
There is some setup for the T9
Setting/Imput/Options/T9 Settings
There are just 4 check boxes
Spell Correction
Word Completion in T9 mode
Work Completion in ABC mode
Auto-Substitution
None of them were check on mine and i just barely upgraded my ROM to the 5.11 so every thing was set to default
I have just got the phone and have been playing with it for the last couple of days. I really am impressed with aside from one feature.
When typing out text messages with the phone horizontal (so i can use both thumbs) using the Samsung QWERTY input, the words don;t auto correct if I make a small mistake. I am so so so sure that when I tested the phone in store the women managed to turn it on so that as long as I got the words roughly right, the phone would auto correct them for me!
Does anyone know how I turn this feature on? I do not want it via SWYPE or the T9 auto predict word feature, just the standard QWERTY keyboard.
I would be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction! Cheers guys
Anyone at all guys, it is the one thing preventing me from calling it a perfect phone!
Hey Everyone,
I upgraded to Android 1.6 and rooted my phone.
All is working fine.
(I added the apps better keyboard and slide keyboard) days ago.
I JUST noticed that the default dialpad is missing the letters under the numbers that means if I have to spell a name using the dialpad I can't since I ONLY see numbers now.
Can someone shed some light on this?
How do I turn back on the T9 keyboard??? I think that's what I need to do, not sure.
The phone is an LG EVE.
THANKS!
How Do I delete this thread?
I turned off the better keyboard and now the dialer keypad shows the letters.
Strange...

Hi all,
So, I'm having a bizarre issue with Samsung Keyboard on my Verizon Galaxy S7. I use the auto correct (auto replace) feature, and it normally does a very good job of catching typos and whatnot. But, it does something really strange when I end a sentence with an exclamation point (!) or question mark (?).
It replaces the entire word before this mark with something totally unrelated. Like for example, if I type "Yeah!", I hit the space bar, and it gets replaced with something like "The!", or "I!". My girlfriend has the same issue on her Galaxy S7. We never had this issue on our previous Samsung phones. This seems to only happen with Samsung Keyboard. But, I would like it if I didn't have to switch keyboards, or turn off Auto correct. Any ideas?
Here's what I've tried so far:
Clear cache and data on Samsung Keyboard
Disable Sync on Samsung Account
Disable various keyboard features, like Auto spacing and Auto punctuate
Factory reset
Thanks in advance!
OMG! Thank God someone else is experiencing this too because I thought I was going crazy LOL. I've been sharing the below post everywhere I can -- I sure hope Samsung fixes it soon because it's very irritating.
I have the s7 and I HATE the autocorrect. I use exclamation points a lot and every time you end a sentence with one it autocorrects the final word in the sentence to something completely random. For example, I typed "I don't understand how!" and it autocorrected how to "why." I typed "Why, does this phone?" and it autocorrected phone to "mean." I typed "Those poor kids are probably starving" and it autocorrect starving to "the." It's the most frustrating thing ever and happens every time I type a text message. I've never wanted to chuck a phone across the room more than when I'm texting on the S7. I've contacted Samsung support, twice, and they pretty much told me I was crazy. So, I figure I'll find every review post on the S7 and post about my issue to see if someone somewhere in the Samsung world can release a software fix for this stupid phone.
Yeah this drives me crazy as well. It's very inaccurate. Maybe a new keyboard like swift key? With the stock one you are better off just tapping

Yes!! I'm so glad too that I'm not the only one experiencing this. I have been searching like crazy, and haven't found this issue listed anywhere.
So sounds like the only fix at this point is a custom keyboard. I hope they fix this soon. Thanks for the replies!
Ok, I have an update. I went into Settings > Language and Input > Samsung Keyboard > Add input languages. There was an "Update" button next to "English (US)". I downloaded this update. Since then, the problem seems to have diminished somewhat. I still see it, but it's kinda 50/50 now.
If somebody else wants to try this, let me know what kind of results you get. Thanks!
I managed to correct the problem! Under Settings > Language > Samsung Keyboard > Add Input Languages > More > Check for updates!!! So relieved!
Issues with Autocorrect on Samsung Keyboard? Completely wrong word replacement
Just use the Kii keyboard app. Free and does what you want.
I fixed it! I went to the Samsung keyboard in settings and changed the Keyboard Swipe to None. Boom! Instantly fixed!
i always loved the samsung keyboard but after the nougat update i move to gboard and think ill stay here for a while because i think the autocorrection works far better and love that you can have multiple languages at the same time rather then to switch between each one of the sammy.
I thought it was only me.... I used to save Roman Urdu words saved in my dictionary and it automatically used to replace the correct words as I zipped along.. no longer working right for me and I am so frustrated by it.. software update screwed my fav keyboard

i get the same issues when i text on my Samsung s7 phone but mine does it anywhere in my text not necessarily at the end, im thinking about spending muy money on iphone instead cause this is driving me nuts! get tired of having tip go back and fix words on a constant basis or re-text because person reading it can't understand what i said.
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Predictive Text and Auto Replace
I was having the same problem (a word being suggested that was totally off from what was being typed and that wacky word replacing the correct word). The fix was keeping the predictive text on but turning the auto replace off. For my phone/software I got to these by:
1. Settings
2. General Management
3. Language And Time - Language and Input
4. Keyboards - Virtual Keyboard
5. Samsung Keyboard
6. Smart Typing - Predictive Text
The Predictive Text should be on, but the Auto Replace should be off
With the settings as described, the words I use a lot while texting (for instance "thanks" and "ok") show up under where I'm typing the text and I can tap them to save time, but the whole deal where some wacky word comes up and then replaces the word you wanted unless you hit the arrow goes away. I hope this is helpful.
it's 2018 and im still having this issue. I'll type in love and 100% of the time it switches to live. I mean, I use live too so i don't want to delete it. This issue makes me take atleast twice as long to type one message. I had it turned off for a long time and that was my solution, but if they have a feature, I want to ****ing use it. I NEVER had this issue on my previous Samsungs and i've only ever had Samsung "smart" phones.
Hi,
so on every android phone you go to 'keyboard and input' and there you can turn off spell check (red underlines on wrongly written words),
but on my find x2 pro this option is missing, which makes me mad, since I have everything red all the time since I'm writing in three languagues every day.
Edit.
I understand now what is happening:
OPPO uses Gboard as standard keyboard and in it's settings you can turn it off, so they don't offer this option in their OS, oppose to every other android phone on the market, rotfl.
This way it obviously only works with Gboard.
Where exactly did you find the option to switch dictionary off? I couldn't find it in gboard settings

Text correction -> spell check (last option)

I'm using swift keyboard
and unfortunately dictionary (red lines under the words in Arabic language) is still on despite that I've switched off the spell check option from gboard
But if I switch the keyboard to gboard it'll be gone for Arabic language
As I wrote in last sentence in first post turning off works only with Gboard.
I wrote already to swiftkey support so they include this option too, but I got zero answer.
And oppo support says they won't include it, because it's already in their default keyboard (Gboard)...
