Predictive text not working - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Predictive text and autocorrect isn't working on the tmobile galaxy s. i get the predictive text list but i have to manually select the best match. It works differently on htc and misspelt words are not indicated or corrected. can anyone confirm this?

Works fine.

Works fine here.

I get the predictive text list but it does not auto select the best match. I have to select the match. That's how I think it is suppose to work Iike it does on htc phones. On htc all i have to do is press the spacebar and it completes the word. Also there is no autocorrect happening. Misspelt words are not underlined or corrected.

Well that sucks. I hope they can fix this. Is there a way to return to the previous build? My phone came already updated. I had a Samsung phone with sprint 2 years ago and swore I would never buy Samsung again after so many software bugs and delayed upgrades but decided to take a chance. Already regretting it.

Did you go into input settings?

Of course the setting is on.

I have the exact same problem and my phone also came updated. Try SwiftKey its so much better!!! Haven't looked back ever since I installed it and I think the trial lasts 30 days. In SwiftKey settings let it learn from ur texts it doesn't send any data but just analyzes it to help prediction

A different keyboard?

I just purchased my SII and while I love everything about it I'm not liking the keyboard to much. I've come from the Moment with slide keyboard so it was no problem when replying to messages and being able to read what I was replying to. With the SII when I replay in landscape the keyboard fills most the screen and the text box takes care of the rest. I would have thought you could slide the text box down to read the message but it's not doing that. Any suggestions or different keyboards to try that would allow me to see the message I'm replying to while typing?

You can try BetterKeyboard from off the Amazon Market. It was initially up on the normal android market. It costs like three bucks but its well worth it. Its very very feature rich and its the only one that, off the top of my head, has the ability to not show a text box in landscape and just show a keyboard for input. It warns against only working on large screens like tablets, but I've rarely ever had it cause issues for me on this phone.

I would like to see the text box but also have the ability to slide the box down to quickly read the message then finish typing my reply. Maybe it's a different sms app I need? I'm also not a big fan of the little comic book chat boxes. I'd like to see the message fill the entire screen left to right when in landscape.

Oh I'm sorry man, I thought were asking for something entirely different. H'm... hold on moment.
**Edit**
I'm still not entirely sure if this is what you're looking for for.. but as for messages not coming up full screen so to speak and being stuck inside little bubbles, you can use Handcent SMS (my preference) though GOSMS or ChompSMS might do the same thing. I can completely customize my interface so that it looks however I want it. Down to the font and font color of each individual thread, the bubble style of each individual thread, the background image for each thread, etc etc etc. Its neat. Two screenies for you. One with bubbles in landscape. One without.

Is there any way to customize the keyboard? As in make a wider space bar? I keep hitting the . button instead of the space button
Here are the screenies.
**EDIT** Sorry they aren't hi-res. It wont let me upload hi-res pics from my phone using the premium app. Idk why

I love Swiftkey X. It has the best word completion. My 2 cents
Agreed, SwiftKey X is what I use. I like it better than the Samsung, ICS, and swype.

I use thumb keyboard
I have started using Perfect Keyboard as I love how it does the macro text replacement kind of like the blackberry's and windows mobile keyboards used to. I can just type br and it will expand it to whatever I want (currently my email address) . I also like the split screen in landscape mode that give you a number pad between the split.
The developer is a member here at XDA.
I do like swyping, does anyone know if the newer versions have customized text replacement or macros? The version of swype that came pre-installed doesn't.

Best Keyboards for S3?

I'm not really feeling the stock Samsung keyboard and I've been searching for a successful port of the HTC/Sense keyboard for the S3 with no luck.
It seems as if I'll have to find a comparable or better replacement. Any suggestions?
(BTW, my phone is rooted so there are no issues with flashing anything.)
Try SwiftKey 3! That's epic keyboard with best word reach speed.
It's radicolous in GPlay and probably best keyboard with international support.

Another +1 for SwiftKey3. I switched over to it about six months ago and haven't even thought about looking for another one.
Tried a bunch, keep coming back to swiftkey
I downloaded original stock ICS keyboard works the best no problems
There's something wrong with swiftkey 3 for me.
I could start typing a sentence and it would end up looking like this : The quick brown fox jumped over the fefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefe.
And once I'm in that lock, pressing backspace will just add more. Doesn't happen often but it's annoying.

Thumb keyboard problems.

I love this keyboard because of the auto correct feature and the amount of options you can choose. For some reason while I'm typing sometimes it will do double letters and it's at random. Sometimes it will look like this "HHey what aree you doing?" Am I the only one with this issue. Using it on my completely stock AT&T galaxy s3.

I haven't experienced that issue but it will ocasionally say I hit a letter than I didnt

It's my favourite keyboard, I use it every day in the past 10 months or so, didn't have this problem either. (Used it on atrix, vivid and hox). Maybe the screen is a little too sensitive?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
There is no way of adjusting the sensitivity of the screen from my understanding. I just am curious if I'm the only one to have this problem or if someone else has experienced it at all doing the same thing. I don't know I'll try not typing so light and see if that makes a difference. If someone has had this problem and they fixed it please let me know how.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Has anyone seen if maybe it's the speed at which you're typing. If I type slow its not so bad. If I start typing faster it starts putting the double letters. Just trying to figure this out. Thanks for the information in advance.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I have the same issue. I type pretty fast and it always has that double letter issue and even sometimes has double words even though I only enter it once. I decided to stick with the stock ics keyboard from the play store which works great without any typos with my quick typing

I definitely have this issue, and am using 4.6.00.147 version of the app (the most recent I believe) as I don't see any update in the Play Store. I love this keyboard, but this part of it is very frustrating. So much to the point that I went back to the stock AOSP keyboard, but I want this to be fixed.
EDITED: I've reached out to the developer to see if there is any idea on what's causing/how to fix. I will post any updates if I get any that are constructive.

Samsung keyboard auto correckt

I can't find an option in there for auto-correct either. I've used several keyboards, and Swiftkey 3 has been, by far, the best at prediction. You could buy it from the play store, or you could install Google's 4.2 keyboard and see if it works for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964663
I expected the same thing, it does slow me down a lot to not be able to blow through words letting it do it's thing! I like the kb better than note 1 because it doesn't lag and slow down, but I do wish it would start correcting automatically.

I use Dragon now and it suits me. When I get a text, the dragon window comes up and I can tap the mic to dictate my message back and hit respond. You can type it in too if you need to. There's an option to have the sms be read out in car mode as well.
I played with the first gen S Voice when it came out. It worked for the most part besides the settings at first, but I personally hate it when an app limits me from doing something as simple as going into the settings lol.

I'm guessing either some permissions have to be changed or some build prop edits have to made. Not really sure.
