First time android user so I don't really know if it's me or the phone, but for some reason whenever I'm midway through a sentence and type "its", it automatically corrects it to "It's" with a capitalized "I", even if it's not at the beginning of the sentence. I then have to select "its" from the recommended words instead which ends up not adding an apostrophe.
The same thing happens when typing "i", sometimes it auto-capitalizes it and other times it doesn't no matter where I type it in the sentence. Neither of these are in my user dictionary, and adding them doesn't change anything either.
Anyone have an idea of what might be going on? This is with touch input btw since I'm not a fan of swype just yet.

Hi,
I have mistakenly entered a misspelled word in my hero and unfortunately it’s one of the most common word in my language (Swedish). It’s very frustrating to have to click the correct word every time.
Is there any way to remove words from the user word list?
Also, I thought there was some intelligence built into the whole thing and that it would learn that I prefer the most chosen word an at some stage start to suggest the correct one. However, after choosing it SEVERAL times it still suggests the erratic word. Is it me or T9?

Hello!
Sorry if this is asked/answered, search isn't working on my phone.
Is there any way to change just the text field editing interface on the sgs2? cyanogenmod seems to have it down pretty well but the stock Samsung one that appears in practically all the ROMs I've tried is absolutely pathetic. If anyone is confused about what I mean, I mean selecting words, highlighting words, copying and pasting words, the little text selection arrows etc. It is frustratingly incompetent ATM and is making me want to throw my phone at a wall.
Its the one main thing that bothers me about Android, iOS has this perfectly sorted.
Most of the time now I have to write my emails/forum posts/Facebook posts etc (ie anything with multiple lines of text) in a notepad type program and copy and paste it over, as trying to select a sole word in the middle of many in a websites text field (or similar) is quite literally impossible.
Someone help me, it is driving me insane.
Thank you.
Is there seriously nothing that can be done about this?
I find that quite hard to believe..
I just updated to the new Firmware version.
I'm using the international GS3 and I'm running stock firmware and kernel and all the other mumbo jumbo.
Previously I was able to type things like "whateevr" and the phone would automatically correct it to "whatever" after I hit spacebar. I remember this setting being in the predictive texting option, however, after the update the phone does not do that anymore and the predictive texting option only offers me to "Learn from my Facebook etc." or turn personal texting on or off (This feature seems somewhat dubious to me but whatever).
So, how do I set it back the way it was so that I can mistype words and have them automatically corrected?

I am also troubled with this. Browsing through the forums suggests that this is intentional and mimics the behaviour of the Note II keyboard, so cannot be readily changed.
I would suggest that this is a huge 'unimprovement' and would like to commend to our developer community the idea of integrating the previous keyboard auto-correct behaviour into custom ROMs.
Does Android limit the rate of keystrokes when typing?
I have a custom bluetooth keyboard that can send entire sentences at once. On iOS, the text appears pretty much instantaneously. On Android, when I send the sentence it kinds of scrolls through and types it out, taking about a second to actually type out the entire sentence.
Sorry if this is confusing, basically instead of typing out the entire sentence at once, the text is entered one letter at a time with a little delay in between.
Is there a way to disable this keystroke limit? I would like to be able to type entire sentences quickly. Thanks!

Its more like a rom problem or maybe browser. Try touchpal keyboard and opera web browser as combo.
first and foremost, I'm slightly intoxicated, and therefore I apologise for any misspellings, incorrect location for posting or general not-making-sense-ness.
Background
For some reason, since getting my Nexus 5, i remembered my love for the stock android keyboard and never re-downloaded swiftkey.
I've noticed the (below) behaviour, and wondered about the workings of it....
the problem (not really a problem, but i didnt know what else to title it....)
while writing, if i accidently misspell variations of the f-word, (eg fudked), the word gets (red) underlined, and upon clicking the only suggestions are other child friendly words, varying much further away from the original word. if i manually correct this, the red underlining removes itself as if it knows this word, yet its obviously never suggested.
Reasoning
I completely understand why this would never be suggested as a replacement word for unknown spellings.
(stop longing out my life, what is your...) Question?
google has a safe-search filter enable/disable option. is this possible for my dictionary?
I want to be able to stop this filtering of suggestions. im not asking how to, im just curious to know where this filtering is defined, and where i should start to play around.
Thankyou
....for reading this, i apologise for any offendings.....
