I want to try using predictive typing for the physical keyboard (like on the touchscreen). There is a setting under "options, typing" to do this...but it won't save! When you set this to predictive and save it, when you return it's back to Direct. Can anyone confirm this glitch and, even better, suggest a fix? Thanks!

You probably have to do a battery pull because I just tested it and it was using predictive text afterwards. I bet it will save after you reboot.

Not working for me. I'm using .225, you? No matter what I do, after trying to save the switch from direct to predictive, the setting immediately reverts back to direct for the Physical keyboard. I can save the settings for the touchscreen keyboard just fine. Anyone else?

Wont save for me on .225

Wont save for me on .225

Thanks, that means it's a software glitch, as I suspected!

Mine's working fine on .225 - no battery pull required. BRB while I turn it off, this is weird.

I was thinking of this recently haven't tried to change the setting until now. Mine will save the setting but does not work.

Yes, I have the version .255....if this is a big issue for you, I would get it checked out.

What does "BRB while I turn it off" mean? thanks!

BRB means Be Right Back

Can others please weigh in on this? Two of us cant get predictive typing (with physical keyboard) to even save. One can get it to save but it doesn't work and two say it works just fine. Thanks!

I'm still on .141 and it saved, but doesnt change. Pulled the battery, still doesn't work. Doesn't really matter to me though...I don't use it. Sorry =/

9800/6.0.0.214 and it works and saves on mine

I know of someone else who had this problem after upgrading OS through DM. The problem was from using DM for the upgrade. He downgraded OS, then upgraded using apploader (not DM) and the problem was resolved.

I used apploader, so I can rule that one out. This is really bizarre, as the fact that half of us are having this issue almost surely means its a software issue (seems like a software issue anyway), but the effects are different on different units. I suspect its a conflict of some sort, but what?

[wxman123]

Can others please weigh in, really trying to figure this one out. Thanks!

Works fine on mine, v6.0.0.225.

You get popups with multiple word choices (like the touchscreen does) when using the physical keyboard?

Yes I do, when it's set to predictive.

[stillmoi]

mine works fine on v6.0.0.225... just tried it out

[gokart3]

can anyone explain the differences between the different keyboard options? cheers

[litesout]

I had it turned on to try it out on .141. It saved fine for me. Upgraded to .225 and now I can't get it back to direct. It will accept it, but when you save or when you exit the menu and tell it to save it just reverts back to Predictive. I did a full backup with the DM, used BBSAK to wipe the device, verified the 507 error and used loader.exe to do the upgrade. Then used DM to restore the device and manually reinstalled all my 3rd party apps through app world or from their respective web sites.

[jostnyc]

I didn't even know I could do this with the physical keyboard. im running .114 havent upgraded. this is great to do. thanks for letting me know but thats another reason i have found not to upgrade. im not having any other problems with the phone so im gonna stay on .114 for a while .

Works fine using .225 (loaded with apploader).

[jft#CB]

I had the same problem: look under "Advanced Style Options", is the first check box for Prediction checked? (I have version 278.)
