Hello all,
Before M8 i owned HTC Sensation. I think at that phone word prediction was more pratical.
For example;
when i would like to write a longer word like "swimming", firstly i was typing "sw" and the phone predict me the word "swim" and for not typing all the rest letters i was clicking the "swim" word and after then i could continue directly this word. Type "ming" and voila the word "swimming"
But at M8, when i click the "swim" word the phone add automatically a space character and if i continue to typing "ming" it creates like this "swim ming" . So is there any way to prevent adding this space character ?
Somewhere in the settings for the keyboard likely. Just look around the settings.
If not, try a keyboard or two to replace it. That option is on most of them.

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.

I just realized that double tapping a word highlights the entire word and gives the option to replace it with a drop down list of suggested words. Has anyone found any other tricks to working the 4.2 keyboard?

Swype is still phenomenally better. The typing gets more accurate with use, and it is always much more accurate and has better punctuation. It takes one tap to add a word to the dictionary. I add a word to the Google dictionary and it still doesn't show up. It randomly censors out words and autocorrects to words that don't even exist. It's a bloody mess.
Have you even tried to write the word "sex"? It keeps on changing it to "sec" and won't even allow me to add it to the dictionary.
Google should have just bought Swype and incorporated it...
I wonder if it's possible to disable it from automatically creating a space after each word, there are times when I want to disable it.

i found the new native keyboard a great improvement, but for me and my uses, doesn't get close to swype. one thing i miss in the native keyboard is cut/copy/paste/select all with just a swype, the ability to move de cursor by swiping too, it has tab (->), a big numerical only keyboard mode, &c.
Of course it's a matter of personal preferences, but swype has more useful features, that i find myself using everyday, than the new native keyboard. And I did delay my coming back to swype trying to get used to the new keyboard. But eventually, after a few days, I'm back with swype.
all the best
You can also tap and hold a word to get the options too.
Of course, predicting words could be better and punctuation marks on swype are more natural to enter.

I noticed that too. How dare they restrict the English language, the bayards. Oops I mean b*stards!
How do you manually add words to the dictionary? Is there a method of doing it other than the default type it out and touch again to save?

It's under the language and input section in the settings menu.
Is it possible to remove the special accented characters from the stock (4.3) keyboard? I didn't have this issue before flashing 4.3, but now almost every time I try to do a long-press when swyping I end up with a special accented character instead of the , or ( or : or @, etc. I thought that if I removed the language (like Spanish) they would likely go away, but I can't even find a way to even do that through settings. I am rooted and really not afraid to delete stuff via a file manager if someone can point me to the right files.
I'd love to know how to do this too. The special characters are killing me. I don't mind the characters like ! and @, but I hate the others because, like you, I keep accidentally switching to them.
Thanks for the confirmation of sanity. I was thinking I was the only one. Never did figure out how to do it but it's still bugging the crap out of me.
Me three! Anyone know how to do this?

You try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471321 I havent but did a little searching..

Never thought to search for the reverse (adding languages) as a solution, but it might just work. I'm on vacation and don't want to hose my phone, but I'll try it when I get home this weekend.
Delved into the suggested solution above pretty deep, but couldn't get those characters to go away even after removing what I believe was Spanish languages/characters from that configuration file. I rebooted with each change, but still no go. I suspect the problem is that we're not actually using the stock Samsung keyboard config, but are using some sort of add-on SwiftKey keyboard that is built in to the stock ROM. I think the config file that needs the edited has something to do with SwiftKey instead of the OS. I don't really like Swype so I might try the paid version of SwiftKey to see if it has a way to remove those chars but have a similar keyboard layout that I'm used to. Hopefully they won't even be there by default.
I have the same problem. I try to end a question with? But end up with ñ

It seems to be working
Random question for the first time in my opinion is that you have received this message in error
That paragraph was from the suggestions line
How do you open the dictionary?
I see the three dots below the middle section is that it?

so you got the same problem ?
which rom are you on ?
so you cant add personal words ?
when you typing a message can you save a new word ?
the keyboard should highlight the new word with a red line unterneath the word... tab on it and it asks you to save the word in your dictionary...
doesnt work for me either ...

I've been having this problem for a while. It was the same on the m8. I am on Veeizon m9 now and still the same. I have tried stock from when I first got the phone and have since tried Viper, ICE and FluentRom but still the same. It is not the custom roms doing it, it has to be on Google's side.
I would like to replace the LG keyboard, I find the prediction and the recognition of the trace horrible. Is there a port of the AOSP keyboard or something similar that works in LG G7? not Google Board if possible

Thanks for the suggestion, I have installed it and it looks like the type of keyboard I'm looking for
But how can I enable the trace? It says I need to install a typing library but when I press in Install Library it says Choose Library but I don't know what I have to install

Oh it is a good trace function what I'm interested in, in another phone that I have with AOSP keyboard it works flawless, that's what I was interesting in AOSP for G7 but I haven't been able to activate the trace in G7 neither with these options nor even with Google Keyboard. I've also tried AnySoftKeyboard that has the trace function but it's almost useless in practice. So I think I will keep using LG Keyboard, even with all its flaws it turns out it has the best trace function I've found so far (of course that does not mean it's good).
Thanks for your help :good:
I'll get my LG the next days, but i guess I'll use the old Xperia keyboard again. This is by far the best keyboard I've ever used:

Thanks for the heads-up, but I see it was last optimized for Marshmallow. I'm afraid if it could cause problems in Pie. If you're decided to install it for sure, I'd appreciate if you could give some feedback afterwards. Thanks!

I'm using this right now on Pie but will give you feedback anyway the next days on the G7
So it's working like a Charme. Still the best keyboard Imo.
I'm also using a Magisk Module to get Whatsapp Emojis systemwide (and so on the keyboard too). You can find it in the official repo.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm also using it now and yes I like it more than LG's and I think the trace works better
However it is not perfect and it has some drawbacks:
- When the word selected by the trace is not the expected, pressing delete does not immediately delete it as it does the LG keyboard, you have to delete it letter by letter
- When you type letter by letter a word that you want but it is not recognized and the keyboard replaces it by a "valid" word, if you press delete in the LG keyboard, the word that you typed is restored and you can keep writting with your word not modified. In Xperia keyboard you need to delete letter by letter the "valid" word and rewrite your word again and if it is a long word, it is replaced again and your only choice is to add it to your personal dictionary - even if you only want to use in this context and do not want it to be offered as a valid word in general
- And related to this, if you type a not recognized word and then push it to keep it in the text as it is, LG keyboard gives you the choice to add it to your personal dictionary or not, but Xperia always add it to your dictionary
But even with this, yes I prefer it

1. Yes that's true
2. After you typed a nonvalid word just press delete 1 time (to go back to the word) and then you can choose the before written nonvalid word from the upper left of the keyboard.
3. True again
