| 1153841 | 2010-11-17 07:17:00 | Anyone use predictive texting? I've started using it but get frustrated when it wrongly guesses what word I want to use. As the manual doesn't give any information about predictive texting can someone tell me if there is a quick and easy way to make corrections without having to revert back to non-predictive texting for that word/s? It's a Nokia 3120 phone, if that makes any difference. |

| 1153842 | 2010-11-17 07:20:00 | usually pressing the star button on Nokia's scrolls through the words available, once that is exhausted it gives the option to spell the word | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1153843 | 2010-11-17 07:24:00 | Sweet, that does the trick. Thanks for that, I can now stop pulling my hair out. :p :cool: :cool: | FoxyMX (5) | ||
| 1153844 | 2010-11-17 07:25:00 | Cool all nokias are the same, which is one of the reasons I have had so many of them | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1153845 | 2010-11-17 07:29:00 | The three Nokias that I used/use are all quite different in their functions and methods of texting so I must check to see if this feature is the same. Hopefully it is. | FoxyMX (5) | ||
| 1153846 | 2010-11-17 07:56:00 | Usually Nokias have the option to add words to the dictionary too, should you want them in there. I've never needed to though. |

| 1153847 | 2010-11-17 08:25:00 | In my Ericsson (W508a) predictive is pretty good, it will drop down a list of available words so you can scroll through them or continue to spell. if i need to spell a non dictionary word that I don't want to add to the dictionary i can just spell it out by selecting the letters. Dunno about other phones but a samsung on XT that I used was just plain piggy |

| 1153848 | 2010-11-17 08:40:00 | Usually Nokias have the option to add words to the dictionary too, should you want them in there . Yes, I found that and it has been handy but it's a bit of a mission to get to it and it didn't really solve my problem, hence my query for a simpler method of choosing the correct word . For instance when I wanted to use 'sick' it would put up 'pick' and I couldn't figure out how to get 'sick' . :rolleyes: |

| 1153850 | 2010-11-17 09:12:00 | Funny how you get used to things - my Galaxy S has Swype, which is so intuitive I wonder how I ever lived without it - I remember thinking the same thing about predictive. | nofam (9009) | ||
