Predictive text (normal vs word suggestions)

Using a 3120classic I've selected Predictive Text - Word Suggestions.
On my previous (non Nokia) device with predictive, when I started entering a long word like 'yesterday' after a few characters it would autocomplete the whole word. I thought that's what choosing Word Suggestions would do but it doesn't seem to.
Is this sort of feature available?

Which Nokia phone will give me word suggestion? I don''t particularly want a very sophisticated phone with camera, internet etc. All I want is to speak and text, but with word suggestion, completing the words for me,  not only the basic predictive text. Can someone please suggest a phone that actually does that instead of only claiming to do it? (And what's the law on misleading claims? W.S. is listed in the functions!)

  • 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.

  • 6111: No option for "Word Suggestions"

    I can't set "Word suggestions". I have no menu option for Predictive Sett..
    On page 23 of the 6111 manual it says you set "Word suggestions" as follows:
    When writing text select Options> Prediction Sett> then turn Prediction On then you get to Prediction Type> Normal or Word suggestions.
    When I am in create message and choose Options all I have are:-
    Send
    Preview
    Clear field
    Insert contact
    Insert number
    Insert smiley
    Insert word
    Insert Symbol
    Writing Language
    Dictionary Off
    Use Template
    Change msg. type
    Save as template
    Sending options
    Save message
    Exit editor
    Go to top field
    Go to bottom field
    I don't have Prediction Sett.. in the list.
    Any ideas?

  • Entering code in predictive text

    Hi, I do a bit of web editing - have nevered used predictive text before today. I have entered all my codes in web tags using Predictive Text and Insert Word. So does this store them for future reference ?
    When I click on a symbol - it doesn't bring up any of the options I entered ?
    Does anyone know if it is possible to do or whether predictive text only recognises words beginning with alphanumeric characters.

    everytime you add a word by using the Spell feature it gets added into the T9, so that when you start typing you should be able to find it using the # key.
    640K Should be enough for everybody

  • Limited predictive text experience

    Hi, 
    I bought my Z3 yesterday and am having an interesting predictive text experience when messaging. I have the language set to English (Australia), but when I type, the predictive text inserts only words which I have used on my phone in the past (past 24 hours). For example, if I type 'How', It auto corrects to 'Think' as this is a word I've used. 
    I can't imagine this is supposed to happen, that the phone needs to learn all my words before I can use them? I also don't want to disable my predictive text, I just want it to recognise all English words when correcting! I'm sure I've missed something in setting up  - please help.

  • Predictive text not suggesting words - similar to ...

    I've moved from a Moto phone with iTap predicitve text that used to suggest a word when 'typing' so that you didn't have to type in the whole word, particularly useful with long words.
    My Nokia 3120 doesn't do-that S60v3 I believe.
    Is there a setting in the phone to set it?
    Is there a software fix?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.
    Matt

    No. The system used so far on S60 phones does not suggest words like it does on Moto or S-E phones. That's not to say that it won't happen in future, but it's more likely to be seen on new models rather than as updates of existing models.

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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

  • 6234: Selecting Word Suggestions on predictive tex...

    HI there
    I have a Nokia 6234 and according to the user guide, I should be able to select Word Suggestions on predictive text. However I've been looking at all the possible menu options and haven't found this yet.
    When writing a message, if I press Options, of the 17 items that are listed, only one of them concerns prediction and that is "Prediction off" (or "Prediction on" depending on what text writing mode the phone is in at that time). There is no Prediction sub-menu as the user guide seems to suggest, and I haven't seen any menu item called "Word suggestions"
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Charlie

    I just bought my phone in Sydney, Australia about 3 weeks ago and have the same problem, every thing else is fine.
    The dealer suggested I go to Nokia for a software upgrade - the version I have is V05.10 21-12-06.
    Does anyone else have this problem too? If you don't (ie word suggestions works) what firmware version do you have, is is OK?
    To find out your version enter *#0000#.
    Thanks

  • What can be done to ensure that the Arabic text normally copied from Word to InDesign?

    What can be done to ensure that the Arabic text normally copied from Word to InDesign?
    At Word - normal Arabic text.
    At Indesign - wrong.

    See copy/pasted hebrew text is backwards and/or search the forum for "Arabic" (it has been asked numerous times before).

  • 6300 predicted text starts to forget saved words

    Hi there
    I've been using my 6300 for about a year now and I absolutely love this phone!
    However, I believe it is starting to grow old and forget the older words I enter into the predicted text.
    Is this a known issue?
    I have tried searching the forums using advanced search with the terms.
    "all of these words": predicted text 6300
    "at least one of these words": spell
    and "all forums"
    what I have done while composing a message is:
    1. with predicted text enabled, type in my surname 'nguyen'
    2. it will show "mit?"
    3. I select the "Spell" option and enter in "Nguyen"
    4. Press save
    5. Finish typing the message and send.
    The word will remain available again, but I am sure that it has erased another word I have entered.
    If there is a software limitation to the number of words I can save, then I am ok with that, as long as I know my phone is not faulty.

    There is likely to be a limit to the number of words you can add (due to the memory size), but I don't know if it starts to overwrite old entries or just stops saving new words. If the former is the case, that would be the answer.

  • 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.

  • Why is predictive text not working on my iPhone 5s anymore

    Why is predictive text not working on my iphone anymore

    Actually, I just found the answer to my issue in this thread: The type correct/predict function for mail and text in iOS 8.0.2 was working fine then suddenly disappeared and reverted to the old style. I've checked all settings that seemed appropriate. How do I restore? I actually liked the new version. 
    Which says "a thin gray bar with a white dash in the middle of it immediately above the keyboard, you can reopen the suggestions by sliding up with one finger on the white dash." 
    That did it.
    I too have noticed a change, it seems with the new IOS update. My Predictive setting is on, but it seems before it would come up more often in predicting words and also give me a few choices. Now, it's not coming up as much and only providing one 'predictive' word which is not always right. This change is not very useful.
