3310 predictive text problems

As an older user of a fairly old phone I was comfortably letting mobile phone use pass me by until my children persuaded me that I had to learn to text. I have got the basics OK but no matter what I do the predictive text on my Nokia 3310 just seems to churn out rubbish and I have to keep going until "spell" comes up. I have now learned how to switch predictive text off - but would like to use it. The dictionary language is set to English - can anyone help me?

but i've always used the * button to scroll through options. once you move off the word it stops being a sequence of key presses and just becomes the letters as is.

N82 Animated SMS and Predictive Text Problems

I've just got a new N82 and think it's a great phone. I downloaded and installed the Animated SMS program from Nokia's software site and have a couple of problems! The first is that I've set my left direction shortcut to come up with a New Message, now it lists SMS, Email and MMS but no A-SMS, I have to go through the message icon in the main menu. The second problem is that when I open the A-SMS application up and I do use and like Predictive Texting, it doesn't work! Everytime I push a button to start texting nothing displays on the screen and SPELL comes up over the left softkey. Turn off Predictive Texting and it works, very annoying. Anyone else had any problems and anyone know a solution? Have contacted Nokia who haven't got back to me yet.

N96 predictive text and line 2 PROBLEMS

Just upgraded from N95 to N96 on Orange UK, I have always had Nokias and for years I have been holding down the # key to quickly change from Line 1 to Line 2 or visa versa, now it takes an age to go through the menus to change. Any one know where the shortcut is for Line 2 please, also I cannot find predictive text yet anyone know where that is please - or is this an unfinished phone where some of the important bits have been left off. Help Please.

@Barney: The (#)hash shortcut can only be activated thru the firmware of the phone. I have a N80 and just changed the firmware. In my old FW the (#) shortcut changed to and from silent mode; In the new FW the shortcut changes the line.
In order to change your firmware to on that has ALS (the feature you want) you may have to do a little research and find the correct FW and possibly change your product code. The former is supported by Nokia and the latter voids your warranty.
Feel free to ask any questions as I have a few for you. I live in the US, and our service providers do not support two lines. For the past 10 years I have carried two phones and always wondered about 'Line 2'. I am in the process of doing some research on the subject and am curious about how it works on the your side of the pond. Just for starters here are some questions:
Can your phone receive calls on both lines simultaneously?
Does changing your line only change the outgoing number?
Is the feature solely based on the SIM card or must it be network supported?
Do you have a special SIM card for this feature? (dual IMSI)
Thanks

Suggestions - predictive text and text entry

I don't know if this forum is intended for suggestions but here are a couple anyway.
1. Because email and sms text do not operate in landscape mode the keyboard is very small. This leads to a large number of text entry errors compared to ther devices I have used. The screen sensitivity is excellent so this is ont a problem with using a touch device. Allowing landscape data entry would go a long wawy to solving this problem - the keyboard when used with safari in landscape mode is a lot better (perhaps 10% of the missed keys). An alternative which would be better for single handed use would be to ditch the qwerty layout and have a key pad that runs to 4 or 5 rows of keys instead of 3. In most cases it is only neccesary to see a single line of text entry so there is plenty of screen re-estate to do this.
2. The predictive text feature on the iPhone is very poor. This is due to a fundamental error in its design. The current implementation assumes that the current word typed is complete but may be misspelled. To be more useful the feature needs to assume that the characters typed are correct and suggest complete words that start with the fragment available. The predictive text in Windows mobile is infinately better that that of the iPhone (and one of the few features I miss from my old phone!).
If this is the wrong place for posting these suggestion - sorry

N73 English Predictive Text

Hey guys,
I seem to be having problems getting english predictive text to work. Chinese seems to work fine but when I switch to english all I get is nonsense suggestions. I don't even get a drop down of suggested words it just automatically puts in the suggested nonsense for me. Adding words to the dictionary doesn't seem to take either. For example I'll hit the number 2 on my phone for the letter b but the phone will first put the letter a (which is correct) but then when I hit 2 again it will automatically put in "cc" instead of going to the letter b. It's really frustrating me and I've come to love nokia predictive text until now. Please help.
PS: I did buy the phone in asia if that makes any difference and everything else in the phone is in english menu but predictive text is acting really wonky! I'm at my wits end on this. Please, please someone help.
TIA

Hi
Select the predictive text to OFF and then it will no annoy you.
Select: MEENU>TOOLS>PHONE>GENERAL> THERE YOU WILL FIND PREDICTIVE TEXT> HERE YOU SELECT *OFF*
It will work properly then.No more annoying auto selection of texts.
Cheers

C3-01 lost predictive texting

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.
Any suggestions welcome.

During writing text check if the writing language is set as your language. If it is, then restoring the phone may be the only option.
You may want to update the phone to new firmware. The changes mentioned in the link below-
http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Cseries/C3-01-new-firmware-v7-51-released/m-p/1527160#M36199
Connect your phone to a computer & select Nokia Suite mode. If you do not have Nokia Suite on your pc you can download it from here. Now open the Nokia Suite & click on the “green icon of arrow pointing downwards”.
If any updates are available they will be shown in ‘green’. If not you may reinstall the current version. Reinstall option is shown in ‘blue’. If no option to reinstall is shown, please wait for sometime it will become visible. Then the Nokia Suite will download the new software version of the phone. After it you will be prompted to take a complete back up of the device content. Please do not skip this step as reinstallation will erase all the personal data from the phone like contacts, messages, calendar entries etc.
Please note that if you have set a memory card password & you have forgotten its code then take a backup of the card data also as the card will be locked after update and can only be unlocked if you enter the correct code or by ways mentioned in this thread.
Also note that while updating the device ensure the following things-
The device is full charged.
The internet connection Is of good speed & has a backup in case of power loss.
The PC should also be connected to back up power source as if the process is interrupted the phone may go dead. More on update failure & its remedies here.
Please do not run any resource intensive programs in the background while updating as it may freeze the PC which in turn will lead to a dead device.
Ignore all the windows pop-up notifications about device being disconnected.DO NOT DISCONNECT THE PHONE UNTIL UPDATE IS COMPLETED.
It will be better if you disable security keyguard & PIN code request before proceeding with Update/Reinstallation.
Sometimes the device may show Test Mode. Do not panic & DO NOT remove the cable. Let the process complete.
Also check out this video on YouTube with instructions for update.
If problem persists, please visit the nearest authorised Nokia Care Centre.
Please mark the post as solution if it solves your problem.

Add Predictive Texting in Italian

I just bought a NOKIA 5300 here in Canada and it comes with predictive text for English, French, Spanish and Portuguese.
Is there a way to add additional langugages?

In theory, you can't change the language set of the phone yourself... Many, MANY, earlier discussion threads about that, for instance these:
/discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&message.id=8023#M8023
/discussions/board/message?board.id=swupdate&message.id=8066
Or search the internet. People have found ways to go around this, although Nokia doesn't approve of these methods, and - so I've heard - doesn't allow that method to be discussed on their own forum.
By the way, what's the Product Code of your phone? It's weird, I have a Western European "Euro C" version of this phone, and it includes French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Turkish, Dutch, ...)

E65 Predictive Text Error - You insists on being Y...

Well, my first post, E65 predictive texting does not recognise You or YOU or you ! it insists on Yot ! Any quick fix out there for this problem?
Thanks
skthecat

Yes.
T9 works a little different from earlier S60 implementations. It used to be that when you added a word with the 'Spell' function, that it went in as the last choice.
Now it goes in as the first choice. So if you add a word by mistake, OR if you add a word that starts with 'yot' then that's the first choice that comes up.
So it's important these days to think twice before adding a word.
Fortunately it also 'learns' which words are used more often. The quickest fix is to type the word 'you' several times in an SMS message or in a text note.
So you type 'you' (yot will appear), then press the asterrisk until 'you' appears. Put in a space and do it again. and again. And again; it varies how many times you have to do this, last time it happened to me I had to type & correct about 5-6 times or so I think.
There's other ways as well, such as removing the dictionary file with a third party file manager such as 'Y-Browser'. But then you lose all the other words you added as well. Google how that is done works.

6303 predictive text 2-letter-words give numbers

Hi,
Using a 6303 classic, in text messaging, pressing 2 then 3 gives "23" instead of the word "be".
The problem is mostly with 2-letter-words - "of", "on", etc.
It used to work fine in the past.
I thought maybe the number-words had been added to its dictionary, but can't find any way to remove them.
Longer words work fine.
I've changed the suggestion "23" to "be" many many times, but it still keeps offering the default match of "23".

Hi alata
Select the "pencil" button, scroll down to Predictive Text > "Matches" and then the list becomes available.
Star key(*)bottom left on pad will change words. Keep pressing until your happy with the word or you will be asked to spell it.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

Predictive texting ends mysteriously

Predictive texting capability has ended 2x mysteriously. The setting for predictive texting is ON, however the predictive texting capability disappears and texting behaves the old way without predictive texting enabled. When I go to settings==>general==>keyboards, the 'predictive' IS enabled, however the predictive functionality mysteriously becomes disabled. I had to slide the predictive setting to off and then on again to re-enable this. Has anyone else experienced this problem similarly? It's happened 2x without any explanation.

boyetik,
You can't turn it off, but if you tap the (x) next to the suggestions, after 3 or so times, it will no longer make that suggestion.
I live in a town that has a name derived from a spanish word, and predictive text suggested an instrument name to replace it. After a few times of tapping the (x) next to the suggestion, it no longer offers that suggestion.
Hope this helps,

Predictive texting

Although texting got a little better with iOS 8 it has
relapsed with iOS 8.1.3. Why is texting so poor on an iPhone? It is so much better on a Droid. Who created the dictionary and predictive texting? Some of the replacements it makes are absolutely crazy. And some words are corrected several words back so I have to back it all up and rewrite it. Isn't anyone else complaining? Is everyone just complacent? Do iPhone users not know how truly bad texting is on an iphone compared to other operating systems? I almost moved to Droid again before getting the iPhone 6 Plus but was told the texting was much better with the 6. So frustrating. Apple, please have someone else's brain redo predictive texting! Whoever created it doesn't think like an other human.

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

6280 - Cant turn Predictive Text on

I can't work out how to turn on Predictive Text. Elsewhere on this forum people have written about selecting "options" when writing a text message but there are no options for Predictive text that I can see.
Firmware 3.60 on Vodaphone. 2nd phone due to first being faulty.
Any Ideas? Is there a hidden function somewhere? Like pressing and holding the left function key during text input turns the t9 dictionary on/off
Thanks

Give Club Nokia a call, they'll be able to help you with this, especially as you have a network independent (sp!) model... btw, where did you get it from?
hi aubs,
i live in holland, and i got my 6280 from a store that specialises in their own deals with subscriptions with network providers. i don't know if such stores exist in the UK, but there are many here in holland. their offers are often much better than any of the network providers (e.g. vodafone, t-mobile,e tc.).
thanks for the suggestion. i'll get in touch with them and post my findings here. just too busy lately.

Is there a way to add/delete words from the predictive text ?

Is there a way to add/delete words from the predictive text options that my iPhone is giving me? I'm using an iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 8.
There are specific words that are popping up in the area right above the keyboard where it displays 3 word suggestions to choose from. This area seems to suggest words that I have typed before, I'd like to remove these words. Default seems to select the word in the center and when I'm typing fast on occasion it will recommend and select words that I don't need to use.
Any help would be appreciated.

I know in 10g delete is added but in 9i i can only work with UPSERT( update, insert)
is there a way to add delete into 9i MERGE? or somehow encapsulate it?
Thank youI would suggest upgrading to a supported version of the database. 9i has been unsupported for many many years now.
And to answer your question... to the best of my knowledge, there is no workaround. It works as it works.

Predictive text non-English characters to be made ...

I just filled an enhancement request on this feature, please vote for it HERE:
Predictive text non-English characters to be made optional
The story is: while using predictive text for non-English languages (Polish in my case) the dictionary words are grammar correct which include special characters like: ą,ę,ć,ś,ż,ź,ó,ł etc. For texting (SMS) operators count these as 3 characters making a message much longer than it looks. Therefore I can tell you no one uses these characters while texting and people use EN only characters instead a,e,c,s,z,o,l... which makes using the predictive text useless for eg Polish language.
I'd like to have an option to switch using these non-en chars off for predicting text, which is grammatically not correct but in real life that's how people type.
So basically if there's an option to disable lang specific characters I would be getting an example suggestion of 'Prosze' instead of grammatically correct 'Proszę'. 'Prosze' is a 6 character word, 'Proszę' is a 5+3=8 character word. Considering a single SMS message a 300 chars, than it really makes a difference.
Simple solution would be to replace every char ą with a, ć with c, ó with o etc... in each word suggested for the ones who have this option enabled.

HI,
You can write a code in PAI of main screen. there by using loop at screen you can make that field editable or disabled.
Code sample:
loop at screen.
****condition for value check
if screen-name = 'TEXT_EDIT_NAME'
screen-output = 1.
screen-input = 0.
modify screen.
endif.
endloop.
Hope this will help you.
