Keyboard auto correction dictionary - HD2 General

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!

Select input method is really slow ?

Hi all
Hope you all had a great christmas
Okay, back to my question ... when you tap on the input method selection arrow at the bottom of your screen, does it take like forever ... okay, not forever, but more like 6-8 seconds ... for the popup menu to appear and let you select type of input method to use ?
Is there a way to speed this up ?
Takes forever here too. I did use Tweak2k2 to hide some SIPs I never use, plus I have Calligrapher installed.
If you've installed too many sips and uninstalled them....basically messed around with the SIPs (installing and uninstalling)....the registry gets messed up. This makes wm5 to keep thinking and looking for certain dlls until it gives up...
the only way is, do a cleanup (hard reset) and install only the ones you need and are sure of sticking with it until the next hard reset
cheers!

Do you have Voice Command installed? If you do, that will slow down the SIP selection.

Wonder if it's a WM5 thing because I noticed it on my Wizard and now on my Magician II and just assumed that it was due to the 200Mhz processor. If you're seeing in on a Universal then I guess it can't be a processor thing. It is BLOODY annoying as I only ever use Letter Recogniser and very occasionally the Keyboard, but for some reason it keeps defaulting to the keyboard, particularly aftr the (all too frequent in WM5) soft reset.

Any tips?

Hmmm, as a matter of fact, i do have Voice Command installed ... but I seem to recall seeing this slow SIP selection even before that. Anyway, I have disabled Voice Command and it's still just as slow.
Can anyone else here who does not have Voice Command installed verify this ?

Indeed, it is bloody annoying ... I don't see how popping up a menu of available input methods can take that long. It's not like we're asking it to load all the input methods, we just wanna see the list of available methods.
I am also facing the same problem of defaulting to keyboard after a soft reset :roll:

I have a qtek 9000 running on the stock rom. My sip opens up almost instantaneously.
Before which, I had the same issue when I was beta testing calligrapher on another device running wm5. It apparently was a problem with one of the beta builds of calligrapher which they claim to have fixed in their final release...however, I've never installed the final release on my universal. So if you have CG installed, try not to install after a hard reset (Last time i had this issue, i had to hard reset...that was the only way out)

Suggested word dictionary in Text Messaging.................

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?

problem with predictive text

i'm using an arabic rom, but when entering text in english, using the standard windows mobile keyboard, i do get the regular pop-up menu with predictive text, but the problem is that the dictionary never learns any new words. for e.g. after typing wanna in a couple of msg's, the next time you start typing wan, i never get wanna in the list, just the standard words that came with the original dictionary??? is there a fix around this??

Not sure if this will help depends on the keyboard your using, on mine just above the letter keys when you start typing it shows a bar with the letters typed on the right hand side it shows a (plus) sign click that and then you can add your new word then click the (Tick) sign
Like I said it depends on what keyboard you are using
Another option is you can search for eT9MyWords this is a program on my ROM which allows input of new words
Hope that helps
ozmoran is correct. On a lot of roms you need to actually enter the word for it to be stored in the memory banks. When you start to type a word, click on the + symbol to the right of the input box. Now type word you want again and from then on it will be saved for future use.
All words saved are saved into the eT9MyWords program which can be found if you go to (depending on which rom your using) Start > All programs. If you open up this program you can also physically add more or delete saved words
Hope this helps
what you guys are describing is when one is using 1 of the htc keyboards, full qwerty, or compact qwerty, but that doesn't apply to the standard windows mobile keyboard; on this keyboard you dont have the horizontal bar with the + sign on the end, and i did try entering the words myself into eT9MyWords, but as i said that only serves the htc keyboards...

Ha Ha roger that
Eureka, i just clicked on the clear stored entries, which is found under settings/input/word completion, and since then, the phone seems to have miraculosly remember any new words i type.
thanks alot for all your thoughts guys.
i use the standard windows mobile keyboard, b/c i have been doing that for so long now, i very comfortable, knowing where every key is, and i'm used to the gesture's too. i guess it just an old habit.
again thanks

Excellent, glad you got this sorted.
Obviously path you provided depends on rom your using. This path doesn't exist for me and predictive text works differently on rom I use. I'm assuming your using stock rom?
yes it's a stock ROM. i didnt want to venture into cooked ROMs, so as not to void my warranty, and luckily i havent, b/c a couple of months ago i had a problem with the LCD screen, and i got that replaced at no charge.

Text Input - Capitalization of first letter

I'm trying to set the text input (especially when writing sms') so that the first letter of each sentence is NOT capitalized... I'm in a habit of writing informal sms' so I prefer everything in lower case.
I've tried going into.... Personal > Input > Options and have unchecked the "Capitalise first letter of sentence" option already, but it still seems to do it regardless. Also tried soft and hard resetting, but doesnt seem to have any effect.
I'm using Swype 3.9 at the moment, but it was already capitilizing with the original keyboard. Also, it's Dutty's ROM that I'm using, but I've tried a few others and it's still the same.
Does anyone know if there's a separate setting somewhere else or if there's anything else I should be trying?
Thanks..

thanks tkalli... from the posts, it seems to work for windows 6.1, but not 6.5.
I gave it a go anyway using total commander to edit and save the three files (then tried resetting) and it doesnt seem to make a difference... the "first" letter is still capitalized, so I've changed the files back to how they were...

Possible fix to the typing lag

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).
programatix said:
Look for "eT9ime.dll". Copy it to your device and then copy it to \Windows and soft reset.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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?

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

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.
