Is it possible to auto correct wherever entering text? - Desire General

I've noticed that for example if i'm writing in a forum, it won't auto correct like it does if i'm writing an sms or email... Is there any way to change this?
Thanks
Jon

Good point i wouldn't mind that too.

Looking for an answer to this one too!

Me too. Can any android experts shed light on why the auto-correct one is only used in some apps?

use the android keyboard instead of Htc one that should work just used it to write this.

If you use the compact qwerty in portrait mode you can toggle XT9 correction on and off in all text fields.
No XT9 else where in full qwerty or landscape mode though.

sms in landscape mode

Help me please.... I own a touch HD Can anyone help me regarding the sms in landscape mode so that i can easily use the qwerty board.
Thanks
Try Gyrator 2 and create an event for the SMS / MMS application
This is exactly what I did, I find it very useful more so than I would have thought. But remember you can't use the keypad mode in landscape.
I'm using the FingerKeyboard - Black edition v1.4, so no problem for the landscape support.

Any way to fix HTC keyboard's prediction?

Hi,
I don't like the word prediction on the standard HTC keyboard. If Itype a word that's not in the dictionary, I can either change it to the word the prediction suggests, or insert + save the word I typed in.
the problem is, sometimes I DON'T want the word saved, like it's a one-time-use word. the prediction on the android keyboard was much better; tap the word once to insert, tap another time to save. (but I like HTC keyboard's symbols-handling better)
any way to get this "tap twice to save" on the HTC keyboard too?
btw does anyone have a download link to android keyboard?
edit: oh and is it possible to turn off the "buggy" text reflow in the web browser?
Tap twice to save is not possible afaik with the standard HTC keyboard. However, if you search for the HTC_IME mod by some guy called Jonas, you will find a modded version of the keyboard which you can configure somewhat into the direction you described. Root isn't required for this keyboard btw.
Good luck!

special characters in sms bug?

hi!
is there any fix or something to remove special characters from sms?
im from Portugal and for example the word "já" if i type it with the accent in the "a" it ocupies 90 charecters from the 160 sms limit.. but if i type the word "ja" without the accent in the "a" it only occupies 2 characters.. what a weird bug..
im using cm7 with go sms and swift kb..
is there any way to skip the accents special characters etc?
for example if i write the word "não" it automatically changes to "nao" to skip the chars..
thanks all

yes there is. you need to use htc_ime mod. it is an improved version of stock htc keyboard.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=663608
read this post, so u will know what to do
it installs as a regular apk.
other options are:
-3rd party SMS application with that option
or
-if you use swype then you would have to find a ASCII version
thanks.. isto use swift and i love it.. dont want to get back to htc ime mod :x
well i will search for more info.. in last option i have to go backup to htc ime. :x
thanks

GO Keyboard - stop processing the hardware keys!

Currently on CM7.1, using the latest version of GO Keyboard. Does anyone have any idea on how to disable prediction for the hardware keyboard?
The thing is, when inserting special characters (such as ă,î,ș) the SMS character number shrinks from 160 to 70 (some Unicode boulderdash is involved).
Whenever I send long messages (and I usually do) I use the hardware keyboard in order to avoid inserting special characters, so that's my way of disabling prediction.
I don't want to use Swype/MultiLing or other keyboards because they add special keys for Romanian characters, which I find pointless (prediction can be done using a normal English QWERTY layout) and also space-wasting.
So, any ideas? Can this be done?
As a workaround, I have Catalan selected as another language (don't have the dictionary installed for it) and use that when typing on the HW keyboard.
Try z arrow from the market. It lets you use the menu key for copy, paste, and directional arrows. It also has a switcher that will swap keyboards when you rotate the screen.

Never heard of that before. Will try. Thanks!

Keyboard - add word auto suggest

I am tired of typing my full e-mail address all the time. I figure the phone should recognize I am typing it after a few letters and offer the suggested complete word up top like it does with other words.
I tried adding my email as a word to the dictionary but it didn't work.
Any suggestions please?

Don't know about the stock keyboard, but Swiftkey does this without a hassle.
