Stop "learning words" on ICS Xperia U - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hi,
since when I updated to ICS my Xperia keeps learning every word I write and that's very annoying because it learns words with spelling mistakes etc. In GB I found an option that made the keyboard not learn the "new" words I wrote but I can't find this option on ICS. What can I do?

Setting it's there I had this problem too, but it's there! I don't have English ICS but I'll try to translate it by my way.....
Settings / Language and Input / Keyboard Xperia (click icon on right side) / Text Input Settings / Words prediction / here apply the last button like "I don't want any help during typing"
I use Slovak language so that's why my titles could be little bit different...

Thank you but that's not what I meant... I want to be helped a little (in italian there are some "special" letters the phone replaces automatically) but I don't want the phone to learn new words... However, thank you

well.. if you see that you typed your word wrong, then just use the enter key, NEVER tap words you dont want in your dictionary.

I would also like to have this feature back on my Xperia P.

Pseudo-EN Keyboard Layout for CM

Hi,
First, again, sorry for posting it here. Still don't have permission to post on development forums (need 10 posts to do that).
I was looking for an English Keyboard Layout for CM but I couldn't find one on the thread. So, I downloaded the German (the one without specific german letters mapped to blue/sym keys) and started hacking on it a little..
Well, I could swap Y and Z keys, but then I had to press blue+Z to enter number 3. I tried changing another things too without any success.
Is there anyone who can help me accomplish this things:
- Important things:
1- Fully swap Y and Z letters, letting me enter number 3 pressing Z.
2- My comma ',' key prints an apostrophe. I wanted to make it print comma.
- Not so important:
3- Make blue+C who actually has an apostrophe on it prints an apostrophe (that's not so important because I'm brazilian. We don't use apostrophes to much in here =P. And it's my girlfriend's phone, she is 99% of the time typing portuguese =P)
What can help, maybe, someone who provides a layout there, can point me where to find the original keychars.kcm. The update.zip comes with this file in a binary format, making it difficult to change =/
I have the same problem with keyboard, but I can use with this problem.

Predictive text

I'm happy with my S3 but I come from a Galaxy Note. In S3 there's no option to add new words to Predictive text dictionary.
Are you having the same problem? Is there a way to fix it?
Thanks in advanced.
Type the word, and it will learn

I'm used to typing with old phones keyboard and thanks to you I've realised that if I want to add a new word I have to use the qwerty keyboard.
Do you know how to delete words added to the dictionary. I could do it in Galaxy Note.
Sorry for all the incoveniences

you're great.
Thanks a lot.
Hi all! Congrats to those who got their shiny new S3s.
I would like to check if anyone is experiencing the same bug as me within predictive text:
Save a new word to the auto-substitution and/or my word list and then restart your phone.
Do your custom words disappear? Mine are not preserved after the restart.
Do test it and let me know!

Oh man, you're right. The same happens to me. I wish Samsung published a new firmware with all the discovered bugs fixed.
Please test this with your S3s people! I'll be putting in an official complaint to samsung tomorrow! Need more to confirm the presence of the bug

Just updated my gf's S2 to ICS 4.0.3 & when using the 3x4 keyboard, in the predictive txt area there is the option to add your own word, why would this be removed for the S3? Makes no sense??
Yeah same problem with mine, I spent and age adding words the first day then next day they all gone and wasn't auto learning new ones, but yesterday it started learning again and for me this is the most serious bug I ever saw on a phone.
---------- Post added at 03:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:49 PM ----------
Is there any system file to Backup/Modify/Restore because I can't afford to keep losing all my words.
Has this problem been solved in the new update?

need to change to qwerty to add words to my words list...
a restart will reset the my words list..
in smiley list under the qwerty kb there is no BIG SMILE
in S2 when using the 3x4 keyboard, in the predictive txt area there is the option to add your own word, why would this be removed for the S3? Makes no sense??
is there a way to add the words to my words list frm the pc...its sucks to add 100's of words manualy
I was never a big fan of stock keyboard...
I find it a bit gimmicky especially the predictive text
I suggest you try a third party keyboard instead... SwiftKey a much better in option in my opinion.
I've been trying to find out myself if there's any other way to add words by finding the file in the Root folder that saves my words list so I can save and replace it every time I reboot, but no one seems to know how.
Hi I have the same problem as soon as I restart my phone or switch it off all the words in the list will be deleted, my old firmware was I9300XXALE9, & after visiting the Samsung workshop to fix this issue they've installed this firmware I9300XXALEF but the same problem remain the same, please advice how to solve this issue.
BRs,
Ahmad T.
I've been digging through the Root files to try to find where it saves "My word list" and all I've found is the file:
Root/data/user/0->/data/data/com.android.providers.userdictionary.
But even with words in my word list that folder is empty, so come on there must be someone out there clever enough to find the folder the words are saved in.

Text correction

Hi i have s3 and im from Lithuania and i dont know how to enable Lithuanian text correction. This option perfecly worked on s1 and s2.
For example when im typing "azuolas" it becomes "ąžuolas".

First of all, If we're speaking about "autocorrect" option, Samsung badly disabled this since JB releases to avoid a possible patent fight with Apple. In the other hand, you can enable "suggestions" in the stock keyboard; first of all make sure you have downloaded and installed your language dictionary (settings>language>samsung keyboard wheel icon>input languages) and then enable predictive text in the same samsung keyboard settings page.
If all have been done right, then you can type with suggestions, but stock keyboard will never correct your words but "suggest" the correct one in the top of the keyboard, and to put the correct word you should press the suggested one.
That was cool option. Sad that apple is destoyng all good thinks like patent smurf.
And i dont know how patent authorities let them get such patent.
I hate Apple more

[Q] New Google material design keyboard and Android 5.0 Lollipop

Hello folks!
Today it's been three days since I updated my Nexus 5 to Lollipop. It's supercool except keyboard. I don't know whether this is a BUG or a FEATURE :laugh:
This issue was confirmed by 2 more users using Android 5.0 and New Google keyboard. But users who are using new Google keyboard on KK (4.4.4) haven't experiencing such problem.
So here's my letter to Google describing the issue and a video I recorded to show what I'm actually talking about.
Hi guys!
As a iOS-to-Android switcher I would like to ask you guys a question about your new Google keyboard.
I own a Nexus 5 device with Android 5.0 installed on it.
I do use swype typing a lot. I mean really a lot)
When I type a text using Google keyboard I use a lot of “custom" words, because your Russian dictionary is very poor and lack of a lot of common words I must say. So I have to add them manually. It is a pain in the ass when it comes to adding a new word to a user's dictionary while typing a text. On KitKat with old keyboard it took 2 taps to add a new word.
Old keyboard (KitKat experience)
Steps were:
- type a word
- tap in the middle section of suggestion strip where my new word did appear
- confirm adding to the dictionary (this step is useless, really think getting rid of it please)
New keyboard (Lollipop experience)
Steps are
- type a word
- space (need to do to get word appear in the middle section of suggestion strip)
- backspace (need to do to get word appear in the middle section of suggestion strip)
- tap in the middle section of suggestions where my new word finally did appear
- confirm adding to the dictionary (this step is still useless, really think getting rid of it please)
iOS do it like ONE tap guys. Just one tap and boom! your word is on dictionary. No need to confirm, to space, to backspace or do something else. Just that simple.
Here is the video demonstrating what I’m talking about:
I can't post videos until I have 10+ posts... (Anyone with 10+ post can PM me and I'll send you a link to the video to post it here for better understanding. Thanks.)
Hope you guys'll read this letter and do your best to stick a lot of people like me with Android. I really like Android and I don’t want to switch back to iOS. But such things are driving me nuts and make me think of switching back.
Regards,
Denis.

Are you guys experiencing this problem using English layout or it is only non-English layouts issue?

Eh, not fully sure exactly what's needed... but will this help?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_(Unicode_block)
Maybe you want me to try to lay them in a similar style like you did? or it has some particular name so I'll search for it?

Can you type all the characters in the attached image here in the same order? It helps me to find the Unicodes easier.
Ok, I'll write each number with the letters on it:
2 - דהו
3 - אבג
4 - מםנן
5 - יכךל
6 - זחט
7 - רשת
8 - צץק
9 - סעפף

When I'm at a field that it is needed to type with a keyboard, I can use the Google keyboard, but when I switch to the multi tap keyboard, The multi tap keyboard does not open.
Hi, thank you for adding Hebrew.
But for me as well it's not opening now the keyboard unless I switch to the Google one
Sorry for that, please check the new version I just released.

There is been a change in the new API that broke a small part of the keyboard. I fixed it in the new version.
Well, I tested it now,
And it works mostly, I already forgot how actually T9 was fast, for a smartwatch it makes more sense than qwerty I think...
But there's 1 bug I guess, when something is typed already, the Globe icon supposed to turn into a delete icon and act like it, but what happens is that the delete works but it stays as a globe icon.
Another bug is (I think it happens now on English as well) the button to switch to numbers/symbols, it works but the actual view stays on the letters.
And on Hebrew, there are no big or small letters, so the button where it supposed to switch it, acts as inputting of something that I'm not sure what it is lol.
Another feature request (maybe it's not possible) add a microphone button for speach to text for the current language (I'm still hoping to be able to dictate on Hebrew to the watch)
But overall, it works great!! I can't even tell you how happy I am for this! thank you!!!
