I might be really thick, but on gingerbread when you went back to a word you were offered the autocorrect suggestions again in order to change it. This isnt happening in ICS. Am I doing something wrong?
If you're talking about words you have added you can find them by going in to the main settings menu-language and input- then personal dictionary. Once in there you can add, edit or delete words.
Hope this helps.

Yeah they made some weird changes. Now you have to double tap (edit: or long tap) on a word in order to replace it.
Has anyone found that if you try to correct a spelling mistake it will change its self back? This is happening frequently to me.

Aha! I would have never worked that out!
Hoow to turn this bloody auto correct off? I did untick it in options, but it still does it

It's the version thats in the market.
No I mean where is the setting located? I accidentally hit enter, and it sends.
I'm running the latest version, but it won't show any way to disable that feature.

Ah my bad. There isn't a setting for it. It just doesn't do it for me. lol
Dangit... You serious? You can accidentally hit enter and it doesn't send before you want it to??

Yep. I'm also not using a stock keyboard either. I'm switching between Thumbkeyboard 4, Swype, and some other keyboard mods. So maybe that might be the reason, maybe not. I know on swype there is no enter key. There is the emoticon list as a replacement lol

Ah. I can't seem to give up the stock HTC keyboard. It's so clean and well put together. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to watch my typing better lol

Yeah, i thought the same thing too, then I tried swype, and i fell in love, and since then it's been back and forth between like 4 keyboards, trying different things lol
So I have an idea for a lockscreen but im not sure what to do with it... share it for a dev to find and possibly make? Or learn how to create it myself.. either way I havent a clue how to go about it... anyone have some advice?
can u share the idea i like to know
ok like a bunch of sliding blocks in from different directions that when you press and drag on them they can be slid away from screen.. and you "set the pattern" by choosing how many blocks and which blocks and in what order you have to swipe... so if someone for instance doesn't start on the correct block you can slide them around all day but it wont open... but if you swipe the correct say 3 in the correct order.. viola...
Instead of one constant motion like the pattern dots.. or a swipe lock screen.. you actually need 2 or more swipes...

No. That's degrading to his idea. He means more like playing the game "unblock me" from android market. But take that idea mixed with a lock-screen which i really like the OP's lock-screen idea.

Never responded... anyone else wanna take a stab at it.. or tell me how to go about making it myself?
I don't know how to code but the algorithm would be pretty simple
Assuming everyone starts with the same blocks in the same places
The specific combination of swipes would be needed to unlock the phone, dammit I can visualize this in my head but it's hard to put into words... I would also need to see what kind of layout u are specifically talking about, do u know how to code

I can't for the life of me find the setting that controls text commands. Where you send a text to your phone like #alarm# and your phone goes off. I found it before but now I can't find it.
Pretty sure you need an app for that..
Sent from my SGH-T999
That sounds like the app "Where's My Droid" If you lose your phone you can text it a special code that you made and it will sound an alarm or it will show you where your phones at on Google maps.

It was in the settings and it disappeared or something after I flashed an upgrade but the feature is this there. Try texting yourself #alarm# and your phone will go off. I didn't have an app. My phone will still respond to the commands but I no longer have a way of changing the settings.
I just tried it and all i got was a text. No alarm went off.

That's so weird. My phone will set off an alarm. I wish I could show you guys. Try #lock#. Make sure you use the # symbol.

There are no built-in text commands. Not on stock ICS, Touchwiz ICS, or Jellybean.

I didn't say you were. But give it a Google. I did and nothing came up and there was nothing in the press release or unveiling of the S3 that showed any of these features. And they sure don't exist on my phone.. or anyone else's here..

Lol I know, I'm questioning my own sanity at this point. I googled and googled and nothing came up. Our phones can be controlled remotely through Samsung dive. Does anyone have an original firmware S3? I remember the menu looking exactly like the motion settings with toggle switches and about 5 commands.

No sorry, it doesn't work on my phone, but it did on my tablet.
so first post and naturally cant put it where it makes sense .. so.. just flashed the new wicked rom v7 and wondered if I was missing something with the lack of a "clear" button to get rid of notifications on the drop down menu. is it just me and a reinstall should fix it?? figured Id ask cause most of the comments about people finding quirks (in the development section of forum) seem to revolve around user error and to reflash. Thanks in advance
It's at the top right by the shortcut to settings when you pull down the notification bar. That's what the nexus notification thing means in the change log, I think.

oddly enough I thought something disappeared.. I originally saw a new little icon up there and when I tapped it,, it disappeared.. guess it cleared itself.. oh well either way I just discoverd that with a swipe.. you can clear the notification as well. thanks for response though.

You're welcome. I only ran v7 for a few minutes cuz I prefer holding menu to search (v6) instead of kill the current app (and I don't know how to mod that myself), but the new icon worked as it's supposed to for me.

It just came up in my notification bar when I restarted my phone today.

Interesting.... kind of dumb as to why they would take out the setting but have it default set to display in the notification bar. I'm running version 3.4 if that helps.... I found the setting under Menu>App Settings (all the way at the bottom of App settings)
