[Q] No personal dictionary after 4.0.4 update? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I just got the OTA update yesterday to Android 4.0.4. I know it was supposed to improve the ease of typing but it has actually made things a lot worse (for me, anyway). It seems like they changed the way the prediction works. Like "Im" always used to be automatically replaced with "I'm". Now it's not. Also, I can't find the personal dictionary anymore. Where did they hide it?

Did you check android keyboard settings?

AOSP browser from ICS on N7 ?

Does anyone think it would be possible to install the default browser from ICS? The jelly bean browser is lacking the very useful and important "read" function that I loved do much.
I tried to copy the browser from my evo lte, but it only crashes.

I flashed the AOKP JB build 1 rom, and it has the stock browser in it.
Did you change to the proper permissions? Did you disable the browser sync app?

Yes. Yes. I got the jb browser running just fine. But it lacks the very important "read" function, which reformats a page for easy, uncluttered reading. That's why I'm looking to install the version from ics.

Wow
Looks very useful
Thing is,.I've NEVER.seen that. Ever. Anywhere.
only thing even close that I've seen is pressing menu> dance for offline reading. i have never seen what is described there at all.
Is that a feature built into a certain OEMs included browser? Cuz it's certainly not on my gnex on stock aosp.
Maybe I'll need to go back to ics again just to make sure i am not losing my mind lol. Which i probably am.....
Hmmm, well I know it's on my htc evo 4g lte, so maybe it's only htc phones?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Correct, that is a functionality within the sense browser. Not the stock ICS browser.
Is HTC violating the GPL by not releasing the source for their modified browser? Or is that source available somewhere?

[Q] Spell Correction Issues

The issue i'm facing is the horrible spell correction on my S3. I came from my old S1 directly to the S3. On my old S1 I could type a word out and if it was anywhere near close, the phone would correct it. On my S3 it obviously knows I'm spelling it wrong because it gives me the option to correct it to the right word, but doesn't do it automatically. I am under the impression that it has to be a setting somewhere because even when I downloaded swift I had the same issues. In settings, under the stock keyboard I have all the right boxes clicked as far as what I suspect it should be, but I was wondering if anyone else had this issue.

I am also curious about this. I never had this issue until I flashed the stock touchwiz rooted roms. Now my mistyped words are never corrected automatically no matter what options I select. The rom obviously changed something in the keyboard....anyone know a fix for this? Things like "vibrate on keypress" or the "hand writing" functions just plain don't work/show up. Thanks for any help.

[REQ] HTC_IME keyboard for jellybean

Been looking amd trying every version and it all does not work woth jellybean. Is there a keyboard similar to this also?
I once was a user of HTC IME, a long time user actually. I switched to SwiftKey, and use the light theme, which looks similar to HTC IME stock. I haven't looked back since due to SwiftKey having far superior prediction / auto correct. Just my two cents, if this doesn't help, good luck on the hunt.

Doubt you will find it. Remember that its a different framework, I've used HTC for years but I'm honestly not sure whether its cross compatible

I've just released a location based reminders app. It's called Geobells. It works similarly to Google Now, but (in my testing) is significantly more accurate. In addition, it offers more features such as reminding you when you leave a place or at any place of a certain type (for example, any grocery store instead of just one). If you're still looking for a location reminder app, you should try it out. Click to view on the Google Play store

Your paid version is available to all the devices...
Don't wanna be a cheap guy but wold like to try out your free app that is ad supported.

I'm pretty sure that the app works on your devices, so I think it's because of where you live. What country are you in? I've made the app not available to some countries because a) Sometimes ads don't work with them and b) There aren't that many English speakers in the country (therefore I don't make it available because no one would be able to use it).
Anyways, if you tell me your country, I can add it to the list of available countries, and then you should see it on the store within a few hours.
Oh and btw, the reason you see the full version is because I haven't gotten around to selecting specific countries for it (lol)
Thanks!

I've just added Portugal to the list of countries. You should see it on the Play Store in a few hours. Keep in mind that the app is only English language supported and you have to use English (shouldn't be a problem, you seem to know English well)
