Is there a way I can delete a word that is part of the swype dictionary? I never used the word,, so it must be pre loaded in the default dictionary.
When I type K - quick reply for OK, K.D. Lang comes up every time. How stupid is that?
Do you have a K.D. Lang in your contacts or have you e-mailed/received an e-mail from one through gmail?

Never. Hate the *****....
I don't know why it would show up then, it's not part of the swype dictionary. To delete it, press K and let it pop up then hit space. Press on the word like you're going to edit it so your choices come up then press the swype key on the bottom left of the keyboard. It'll ask if you're sure about wanting to delete the word from your dictionary.

I tried that and I can't delete it. Let me be more specific - when I type K. (with the period) it comes up. Not when I do K[space].
Could you please try the K. (with period) and let me know if you get it. Thanks.
So it does for me too. That's pretty funny.

Turning word suggestion off stopped that particular one from coming up after pressing "k" then "." but that doesn't delete it from the dictionary. Word suggestions still come up when you swype just not when you type individual letters. I know it's not a fix... But it's something.

Using the gingerbread keyboard's touch-to-save functionality, I've managed to save words that I don't want saved. How do I remove them?
I've tried clearing the keyboard's data, uninstalling and reinstalling it, and the words are still there like a damn plague ruining my phone!
OK so it turns out there's an app called User Dictionary Manager that let's you modify the list. But the question remains, WHERE is the list? I'd like to manage it without an app.
I think if you go into: Menu->Settings->Keyboard
there should be something called user dictionary or something with a list of words that you have saved
That dictionary only works for the HTC default keyboard as far as I can tell. Granted, my gingerbread keyboard is an app from the market (the only one, the one by steven lin). But it seems the 2.3 keyboard uses a hidden dictionary and has no means of removing added words, otherwise this question wouldn't be so common and still unanswered.
OMG. I'm trying to figure this out too! It's driving me nuts... I'll give that App a try though.
I have an HTC Sensation, but I found this thread via search. Anyone ever figure this out? When I go to the user dictionary in Language and Keyboard, the list is empty. Oddly enough I tried the User Dictionary Manager app listed, it pulls up a list of about 22 words that are in a custom dictionary somewhere. Problem is, the words I'm looking to remove that keep popping up that I accidentally added are NOT in that list. What the heck?

What rom you using? If its bugs you so much just switch to something better. Im running Team Twilight Shooter E3D sense 3.0. well actually the rebuild version (not an official release)
Hey I have the same problem and searched a bit. I manage to find this info, that the words are stored here:
/data/data/com.android.inputmethod.latin/databases/auto_dict.db
I haven't found time to root my phone yet, so I can't confirm it, but hopefully it helps.
i have dropbox on my phone and setup on my computer, i have a file i want to share with someone on here, i can't figure out how to get it here so he can download it???
Upload the file into your drop box. Then hit share and when it gives you options of how to send pic link. It will generate a link. That link you can post.
ok i'll try it are you the one who wanted the camera app, i can't remember who now, crazy man
Not anymore i ended up just using the stock one and then using the ics camera from market. Everything works perfect on that. The ics app kept closing upon opening.
well i still got to learn how to do this, i can't seem to get the link part and how to post over here
Not sure how many post you need on here before you are allowed to post links? You can always email a apk file. Its small i have done it plenty of times.

Ok on the app open it and on the top select the middle button with the folder and the arrow up. On the bottom it shows two green buttons photos/videos or other files. Select which one you like to upload and then upload it into your drop box.once it is done you can hit the drop box icon on top left and get back to main screen. find the file or pic and long press it. Choose copy link and it will say ready to paste. At that point just long press again and paste where you like the link to be.
ok thanks
I have been using the new gesture keyboard and it is frustrating me that when I type swear words I cannot add them to the dictionary so everytime I use them I have to type them all out. Is there anyway to fix this?
If you go into:
Settings->Language & input->Personal dictionaries
You can select your personal dictionary and add words there.
I cannot add "F***" through this method. What do they think we are, bunch of kids.
I know there is an option to block offensive words, make sure its not checked. But i still think there are words you cannot store. Maybe come up with something else clever to say when you feel like cursing. How about "banana eatin cretin"?

I can add that word just fine. What is the actual error message you see?
If you go through the settings>language and keyboard you can add custom entries to the dictionary. I added a whole slew of filthy obscenities, and they come up just fine now via gesture typing.
Anyone wanna share lol? Can't be bothered to type them all in.

why do i have to do the Image Verification everytime i post, reply?
why do i have to wait 5 yes 5 minutes to post??
it gets annoying to almost not to post anymore
and there is another system better than Letters verification you can use
Letters verification is one of the worst thing there is . Old people can't read it , even me, i have to always refresh to find some short letter
I HATE IT! i don;t know why it's been used nowadays. there are other systems with objects, pictures ....and BIG LETTERS too
They make that function just to piss you..
Did you read the forum rule? They explain the reasons somewhere..if only i could use the search function..

You're the lucky one.
I got one about 2 days ago.
I like it real improvement over Gmail
It has some great improvements. From trying to use it, it seems that messages that are pinned and then swiped out also become unpinned. Something in which I am missing something or otherwise... What is the purpose of pinning something when it has to stay in front of one in their inbox?

Lol I am lost to. I am just trying to get the hang of it. But the layout of it is great. I wish you where able to add another email account. Which I heard you will be able to later.
Yeah. Do think it is a change, and with that comes a learning curve. It seems to be a welcome refresher of gmail.

I am pretty sure that I have two gmail accounts set up, and only asked for an invite to one of them...

Inbox seems to need no invite anymore
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Free mobile app
I think so also. It doesn't give me the option to invite anyone
It still gives me the option and others have had issues without an invite.
It tells me I need an invite.
I think it sucks. It is lacking in so many features.

In what way? I am not a big email person anyway so you might be right. But I love the layout and the design. But they will be adding more and more features to it so give it a little time.

You can't set a signature for emails. And more.
