Xperia X10 :: Lost Predictive Text In English After Upgrade
Dec 1, 2010
I bought the Xperia X10 mini in Hong Kong but I live in Thailand. The people at the shop set it up for me to use in English and it worked perfectly until I upgraded to 2.1. Now there is a bunch of things in Chinese (including apps for the Chinese equivalent of youtbe and facebook!).
The main problem is entering text. When I go to new message, the keyboard is for Chinese by default. There's a button on the right to change to English but then I loose the the spacebar key which is replaced by the key for capitals. In addition there is no predictive text in English so I have to use multitap. Under Language and keyboard, I selected the UK and English for locale. However, under "Text settings" I only have "Chinese keyboard & HWR" and under that is not possible to unclick all of them, it forces me to have at least one selected.
Is it possible to do another upgrade from another location?
I have always used predictive text.Using the Anna software if I wrote a word and it was wrong I could return and re-select the word. Then cycle the words using the *.Now using the Belle software, I cannot return to the word. The cursor just marches through the word letter by letter not selecting it.
I have a PIN on my phone, it's in English. I don't know what happened but it seems like I lost the English language in the keyboard! So now I can't open it... I tried so many passwords so I can use my Gmail account and that didn't work as well!
When using predictive text under 2.1 on my X10i in the Message application, user supplied values (i.e. non standard words input previously) take precedence over standard words. Thus if I type 'no', I get 'Norton' suggested, if I type ''in', I get 'Did', 'to' gets me ' TOM'. I've tried to empty the User Dictionary (but I get told that there are no user supplied words, obviously wrong as I remember supplying Norton, Did etc..). I've varied the predictive text settings in Default Input (Quick Text Settings), off, automatic and Select Manually but it does not seem to make any difference at all, I can't even turn predictive text off unless I go to the Android keyboard level and strike out 'Quick Fixes'. As words such as if, to, in etcetera require me to override the prioritised setting then the value of predictive text is totally lost. Using a PC, I'd delete the offending software and try reloading a new version but I don't knpw how to do this is a X10 mobile phone environment. Similarly, I'd empty the dictionary so that the priority set was null, but I'm told by my 2.1 software that the dictionary has no words in it.
I love my phone but for some reason the white light and the predictive text on longer work whenever I use the physical keyboard. I know I have done soemthing but I have no idea what
I recently changed phone providers and at the same time upgraded from an Iphone 3 old provider to an Iphone 4 with the new provider. Same phone number- I had it trasnferred..
But 1- all my text messages are gone and 2 all my whats app chats are gone.
And yes, I backed up and synced my phone on Itunes before swapping.How can I get it back?
I have a Torch 9800. Made an update 60 bundle 1165. I lost all my languages besides English UK. Cannot find any solution on the device nether with the desktop software (60244) .
I know the answer must be on here somewhere, but I'm blowed if can find it.I always use the predictive text but suddenly it's started generating rubbish, and I can't get it back.I tried switching off and on, removing and replacing battery, etc. Have debated re-installing factory settings but sounds a bit drastic after 15 months of use.
I did the iOS 8.1.2 update. I now do not have predictive type on my iPhone 5s for messaging but do have it for my iPad Retina Mini. Predictive is selected under Settings/Keyboard/Predictive on both devices. I really do not want to lose this because it actually made the keyboarding experience on my devices tolerable. Also I was thinking that I had this keyboard in other apps on the devices but am not seeing it now.
It was the little bar with the suggestions was collapsed. Even with my very tiny fingers, I had a hard time getting it back by dealing with that little grey line, but it is now back.Â
Info: iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1.2, also issue on iPad Retina Mini
I did an upgrade today, followed instructions, did backup with all boxs ticked, after upgrade completed I did the retore action etc. But I have not got all contacts saved and do not have any of the previously uploaded applications. I need them urgently, but no one available at erickson help line. Also vodaphone phone line and service office are not able to help me my service is with them.How do I get this critical info back, as I urgently need to contact several people in my contact list, but can't without their numbers that are saved into my phone or wherever they get saved when entered.Have also done previous backups, but none seem to restore this info.
I like using the predictive text feature. However it doesn't always show up, and yes I have it enabled. If I send a text or an email it works without any problems. But when I use the google search widget or anything else that isn't text or email it doesn't show up. Basically if I'm using the keyboard but not typing a text message or an email the predictive text doesn't show up.
I am so so dissapointed with Sony. At no point was I warned that all my Apps would be lost in the upgrade! I had calander apps with important dates in, and a notes facility which contained all sorts of vital information including passwords I don't have recorded else where (stupid I know). Now all of those apps are gone. I'm struggling to recover my contacts at the moment as well, but am following the advice in the discussions to try to recover those!
I did Gingerbread update this morning, Now my phone doesnt pick up my memory card, and I also cant mount my phone to the computer, I insert the cable and then get the option to connect the phone, but nothing happeneds . The worst is that my memory card is not picked up.
Ever since I upgraded the phone's firmware to the latest (v 20.0.080) the mobile dictionary has a weird glitch. I've attached a picture to show.
If i try to find a word from english to vietnamese, the vietnamese equivalent word will have missing letters.For example: i search "hello" and the vietnamese shows: "xin chao: bi ___ u _ l ___ s ng ___ c nhien" (the underscores "_" are the missing letters.Anyone know how to fix this? I've tried reinstalling the application, and the language pack.
I've tried a english to english search, and words don't show up missing letters. this seems to just happen to vietnamese letters.I do a simple search of a vietnamese to vietnamese. even the results show words with missing letters.
I have just recently got a Nokia X6 but cant seem to get the predictive text to work when using the qwerty keyboard. It works fine in the alphanumeric area. Am i missing a setting somewhere. Surely it must be able to be switched on or is there an app to sort it
I have activated predictive text and just wonder if I am using it correctly, when I type a word it shows a suggestion in grey. If I want to accept I simply press space and teh word is filled in for me. However, if I don't want the suggestion what is the best way to continue without the suggestion being applied? At the moment I press backspace to remove the suggestion, then space to continue typing. Is this the only way to not accept the suggested word?
I've had a Pearl 9105 for a while and I think its great, but I have one problem with it which is really getting on my nerves. I dunno if Ive just got settings wrong cos I dunno alot about texting with the pearl yet.
Basically my problem is, I want the predictive text to learn my choices so that it finally stops thinking I want to use the word foot when Im trying to use the word dont. Or to think I want to say ok and not the 'word' ml. It's really getting annoying. Under text options I have context and auto word learning enabled but I dunno what they actually do tbh.
So this morning I realized that swipe and predictive text have disappeared everywhere. I use these functions often and for the life of me cant remember turning a function off or where to find the options.
i live in korea, and bought a z6m..i really like it, except it doesnt have predictive text on it. after living here for 5 years, i woudl be used to it, but i still miss my itap and t9. is there a way i can mod the phone to add this to my messaging options. i dont want to change anythign else with the phone, just add predictive text. i know its available in korea, so it shouldnt be so hard to find some information on.
