What do you mean?

Okay, it seems that I am not clear enough to explain my point.

Here is what I think...

While typing a text on your phone, when keyboard shows suggestion for the typed alphabet it is called as IntelliSense. When you have typed something first time like "Sonny" next time when you type "S" your phone will display "Sonny" as a suggestion. In short, it shows all the words typed by you in the past and I wanted to delete that history.

I couldn't found the solution to delete all the words however I found a temporary solution and I want to share it because some other user may need it for their XPERIA phone.

While typing if you get a suggestion then long press the suggested word which you want to remove. Phone willl then give you option whether do you want to delete this word from dictionary , click YES and word will be deleted.

But I don't found how to stop this suggestion thing or how to delete entire dictionary of suggestion words.

I anybody finds it please let me know.

Thanks

the only way to delete the entire dictionary is to do a factory/setting reset.

Hmmh...but that won't be a good solution to reset a phone to factory setting,

I think there should be an option to disable intellisense, unfortunately there is no such option.

I think I can use the temporary work around of deleting single word each time.

Indeed its not a good solution, it seems that we will have that option with ICS

Thanks for suggestion, I thought it will work, but it not. Clear cache option is disabled because cache is showing 0.00 B. i.e. there is no data in cache.

I also tried...

Setting >> Language & Keyboard >> User dictionary >> and removed user dictionary...

But it does not work.

Hi, if you do not wish to use the dictionary, you can actually 'disable' it.

To do it, launch Messaging app, tap on the 'Write message' area to bring up the keyboard. Tap on the 2nd key from right (a spanner icon)>Quck text settings>Word suggestions>Don't use dictionary.

Hope this helps.

@gwhispererz

I am not sure which key are u talking about, can u please tell me exactly which key.

Re: reset intellisense data

gwhispererz — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 14:59:27 GMT

The bottom roll, 2nd from the right, the one next to Enter/Return.

at the bottom, next to Enter/Retun there are two navigational keys "<", ">". I think my keypad having different settings.

gwhispererz — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 15:56:16 GMT

Are you using the 'Default input' keyboard? Long press 'Write message' area to check/select.

Re: reset intellisense data

Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:09:38 GMT

Input method was not Default, after selecting it I was able to go to "Quck text settings" but I found that I had already selected "Don't use dictionary" option through Settings >> Language & Keyboard >> Default input >> Quck text settings. but it does not work.

Also tried...

Setting >> Language & Keyboard >> User dictionary >> and removed user dictionary

gwhispererz — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:20:57 GMT

Strange .... no word suggestion from mine when I select 'Don't use dictionary'.

Maybe the problem lies with the keyboard that you are using, you need to 'disable' dictionary there. Suggest you look for this setting on the keyboard that you are using.
