    Hey there! My brother n law has a q10 but is disappointed with the autocorrect when typing as it doesn't, well, autocorrect!! It suggests the correct spelling of the word above to hit if you like, but the autocorrect doesn't happen automatically like it does with the z10.

    Is this normal? I've checked his options and everything is selected ON like it should be.

    Second problem is that sometimes his keys double-hit entries when he's typing.

    Ex. Typping, helllo, etc

    think it might be faulty hardware keys but not sure.

    Thanks in advance for the help!!

    The double hit entries is definitely a keyboard problem. One of my keys on my Q10 was very sensitive, and would activate just when my thumbs were over it. I got a free replacement through Verizon for that. I'm sure other carriers would do the same.
    As for the spelling corrections, the Q10 will correct obvious things when typing but will give suggestions otherwise. You could also add things to the word substitution section in the settings. As I was typing this, things with ' and substitution autocorrected for me so I guess it all depends. It will also learn words and your tendencies too so that will factor in.

    So, just to confirm, the q10 DOES NOT autocorrect like the z10 does? It only suggest words for you to tap and/or word substitutions you have saved??

    Correct. Except it will correct things like words with apostrophes and also simple errors like substiution to substitution.

    I personally have no idea since the physical keyboard IS my autocorrect...
