Hi,
You know when your typing a text message and it shows suggested words as you type in a small box on the screen and it also stores these words into its memory for next time, well im not very good at spelling and now when i type a word it shows me the rubbish that i previously entered.
for example i accidently type approved "apprOVED" and "apprroved" and it now constantly shows me these incorrect suggestions instead of the correct version.
How can i undo this, as in delete the rubbish entered in before that it now keeps showing me?
Thanks
you'll have to either delete (gets rid of all entries) or adjust the file...
\Windows\dyncompdict.dat
ok,
Anyone got any other suggestions? Surely there must be a simpler way?

Nope, there isn't. Please read http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=365548 for a review of how the word completion dictionary should be edited.
OK. My \Windows\dyncompdict.dat file was missing.... as is my word completion. I have created and copied one - to no avail. Any remedies? Pls help

Is there a way to clear out the words that the system has learnt as I have typed in the past?
Eg once i typed huuuuuuuuury!!!
And now every time I type hu it comes up, I want to reset this.
I found a file in My Docs..\Dictionary\MyWords - I moved it but it hasnt made any difference.
Thanks in advance.
Hi FD
I use a small (and free!) dictionary editor by dmitry, heres a link to the download.

I find its very affective for tidying up the internal dictionary.

Thanks MSG, that seems to work a treat.
I tried searching but couldn't find anything to solve my problem, maybe I was searching for the wrong thing but here's my dilemma.
I have a brand new Sprint TP2.
When I read a text message on the messages tab in Manila, neither the little number in the scroll bar or icon in the notifications bar goes away (marking it as read) unless I leave it on the message for an extended period of time. Does anyone know a registry key I can edit to shorten this time, or another work around.
Thanks!
I noticed the exact same thing... really annoying when the text messages are short and you can read it in a split second... seems to have some sort of a time limit before the notification goes away...
there has to be a registry file that can be edited to make the time go to 0...
Yep, does my head in too!
There HAS to be a way to reduce or remove this...
Anyone?
Yes I've noticed this too.. It's very annoying.
What you'll also notice is if you are texting someone with the WM6 interface and keep the contact's text window open, it never marks new texts as unread. So when you go back you'll have all these new texts.
However if you use HTC's interface you don't have this problem but the HTC's interface doesn't work very well and it's not very dominant.

YES! I couldn't pinpoint what the problem was, but that is ANOTHER issue I'd like to fix.

Copy the dll to your windows directory and reboot and all will be well.

All phones I've had over the past god knows how many years have all had the ability to automatically save any new words that I might type, but my HD2 does not seem to do so.
What I mean by this is that if I type a word that is not in the phone's dictionary/predictive text, if I manually typed in the word without the predictive text it would remember it for next time, and each time after that. Or in the case of the iphone it would remember it and be able to use it in the auto correct feature. However, the HD2 doesn't. Can you set it so that it does? I've seen in the hints and tips section that you can manually add to the words recognised by predictive text, but not found anything that suggests how it can 'autosave' words.
Any ideas? I'd be amazed if a phone like this hasn't got this feature, as like I said you've been able to do it on other phones for years.
Cheers

It learns gradually from your typing and language style. There is no way to force a word into the dictionary (through the UI), but if you've typed it a few times, and selected it from the suggestions, it just starts to show up. I think it's just a list of suggestions sorted in the order of most commonly used.
It does for me.
You write the full word and it appears as a marked word(as seen in pic nr one). When it does just press it ones and the next time you begin writing it it should suggest it(pic two).

Hmm, mine doesn't seem to do that. When you write the word for the first time do you have it in XT9 or ABC mode?
Also I've just noticed your name. Are you named after the town or the furniture?
I believe that the suggestions are add automatically... To see and add directly..
Navigate to the windows directory and look for
"eT9MyWords.exe"
That will launch the application with the words in.
I'm not sure if this really fixes the problem since I'm still testing it (so far, so good).
Since I've started using a new ROM I've had the lag problem, but today I've followed a sugestion, replacing the "eT9ime.dll" file by the one from the PTG stock 1.66 ROM, wich never gave me problems (and has a better T9 behaviour for me, that was why I've used it).

So, try to replace "eT9ime.dll" in the Windows directory by the one attached here. This worked nicely on mine (using latest Artemis ROM), but I can't guarantee it would be the same for you, so you should backup the original (or you can dump it from the ROM installer later).
Don't forget to restart the device.
So, no one else tried this?
i have 600 messges from 1 person, will this fix the loading/lag?

The typing lag while the messages are loading? I think it will help (dunno if it will solve the problem completely, but for me it helped).
Just try and report. Please save your important data before in case something goes wrong.
Hello!
I found a Reg entry that helps:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging
there is a entry named:
DisableCacheWhenLengthierMessage
change this value from (1) to (0).
so the cache will be enabled.
the loading lag is still there, but 70-80% less then before.
i have for example 1 conversation with 75X messages. bevore this reg-edit, the loading time was by 30-60sec before i coul´d write without typing lag.
after this tweak i cane write without typing lag in 15-20 sec. enougth time to read the message and think about it what i want write back ^_^...
still not a end solution but better than bevore.
greatz!

Wow this has actually solved it for me or so it seems. Loading doesn't get in the way of typing now, I can type the same speed as when texts are fully loaded.
Definitely a tweak worth adding, thanks a lot for that. Not tried the file from the first post

i tried looking for that regkey in the registry but i dont seem to have it (in HTCMessaging)
i'm on 1.66WWE if that makes a difference?
Do you think it would work if i add the reg key?
Excellent!
Replacing that file gave me the stock behaviour of when I'm composing a text using T9 predictive input method I can now follow the actual written text in the message box instead of the suggested words, making it easier to enter the correctly suggested word
Many thanks for the find

But don't you notice a speed improvement also? Or is it just me? lol

wait, im confused with what everyone is talking about.
does this fix the keyboard loading lag or does it fix the lag WHILE you are typing a message (example, you type a letter and it doesnt appear until 1 second later)?
And also, I dont use T9. I type every single letter out on the keyboard. would this fix be of any use for me?

Regarding the file I've posted, it helps reducing the typing lag, not loading lag... And only if you use T9.
This Reg Entry should work an any HD2 Rom.
Here are 2 CABs with the Reg Entry:

Thnx a lot!? Because of this file finally my xt9 in the energy rom corrects words while typing! Ive searched all over the fora coudnt find an answer no where. But im glad U came with this info! Thnxxx
I use to know where the config file that held all the auto corrections for the keyboard, but now I can't find it. I mistakenly typed in "thatd" so now every time I want to say "that's", I get the wrong word by default.
Does anyone know where the config file is so that I can delete the "thatd" entry?
Thanks
Joe, the file is named eT9MyWords, and it's in the Windows folder. Hope this helps.

Thanks! Hmmm, I ran the program and there was no thatd... This happens mainly in the HTC Messaging if that makes a difference
try soft reset. I've often found that some words that come up as options when typing are lost when soft reset.

I just Task29 and flashed a new ROM and the mistake persisted
hehe, handy.
The next thing then is that the word generator throws up words based on your useage, , so type 'thats' again, but press the small symbol to the right of the words when they come up, and you should see 'that's' as one of the options. Choose it, and then type it again, and you should see it now comes up as the first option.
(Also, its worth making sure you are being very very accurate with the S and D keys, maybe your touch alignment is off a few milimeters, in which case it WILL offer you thatd, because thats what you typed, , , i do that myself practically daily with some words.)
edit - just double checked, and when i type thatd it doesnt offer me that's, and when i type thats it doesnt offer me thatd.
boo... That's so lame! I just typed 400+ chars worth of "thats" which I pressed the "that's" suggestion that came up every time, and i still get thatd... I even get thatd as the default suggestion for tjats, yhats and thatd... I did a search on my phone for thatd, and I got nothing (wasn't expecting to either)
I've Task29'd and flashed a new ROM and I still get THATD!!!! Really, I think I'm going to have to move away from the HTC Messaging....
So funny update. I typed "thatd" and thats was the first option to come up and I thought Yay! it's fixed! Then I tried typing thats and thatd came up
Does anyone know of a registry or config file somewhere that I need to edit to get rid of thatd?!
Thanks for any help!
