Hi All....sorry to have to ask but just got an SP5 and can't find how to switch off the confirmation note I get everytime a send an SMS....where do I find the setting?
Clearly it's not such a ridiculous question - since I've just had an answer from imate and it turns out there is no way to switch the popup off - how annoying !
you need to hack the registry. either disable the tone or change the message tone to a less irritating one.
there's a site mentioned in this thread. take a look at it...

Hi all, searched the forum but couldn't find an answer. So I hope you guys/girls can help me
When I'm driving around using TT7 and someone calls me on my phone it'll be sent to my car radio through bluetooth so I can talk to that person. But when I accept the phonecall the display of the phone switches off.
I know there is a tweak to disable the display turning off during a phonecall, but I like it when I'm not using TT.
So is there a way to disable the display switching off when I'm using TT and keep it active when the phone is not busy navigating me somewhere?
Thanks in advance!

Your English is excellent as it is for many of my Dutch friends, but then again I'm no mierenneuker. ;-)
I haven't found one yet. I simply turn the display back on by touching the power button on the top of the phone.
Here's a question back to some of the more experienced TomTom users from a newbie... during the day, the map background color sometimes changes from green tones to red tones. At first I thought maybe this had something to do with the level of development, but now I'm not so sure. Anybody have an answer?
Let's join forces on this problem

You were just a bit sooner.
But we share the same problem.
Bit annoying
Is it coincidence that we are all dutch
groetjes!!
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!
I put the option to always be on just to see how things worked. Was fine for the few texts I got but then while gaming with friends last night I got a Facebook chat from someone. Was ok the first time but he kept sending more messages and the phone asking if I want to read or ignore was starting to annoy me a little I was thinking this was for SMS only but is good that is does Facebook and Messenger.
Anyone else experience this?
One more thing. I was doctors office and phone in pocket. Got a text and I grabbed the phone from outside of pants and I think I hit the power button and it cancelled it from asking again for response.
You should be able to turn that off in the settings.
Settings > speech > down at bottom "read aloud incoming text messages" - set to "off".
Yup was annoying as hell, turned off and won't be turned back on.
Same as groups.
Speach to text working fine for me, but text to Speach not working, any ideas?

Just now messing with the text to speech thing but have been using the speech to text feature which is awesome. My only complaint is it sensors cuss words. Pretty lame.

I knew I could disable it. Would be nice that it had a timer or something so on the subsequent messages if there were close together. Like within a minute and from same person it would not repeat. Or if screen was unlocked it would assume you are looking at phone and are in messages already so you don't have to be prompted. Maybe a ding or something. Then you could say read or ignore. Guess that is maybe version 2. i will probably leave it on bluetooth setting. Depending on the noise in the room it has been good at repeating my words. Not always correctly but they added an edit button so if you are not driving you can change the word or 2.
i only use it in the car or when i have bluetooth connected. i wouldn't see the point of it being on all the time.
it's really handy in the car since it pauses the music, and then i know when texts came in. not to mention safer than texting while driving.
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.
