texting problems

hi everybody

i'm having the Xperia E since a few days, and there are still some things I struggle with...

i'm writing my texts normaly with the oldscool phonepad ( like abd on 2 - def on 3 - ... - wxyz on 9) with dictionary. but how can I store a new word into that dictionary. i can't find it ...

i've seen you can do it when you're NOT texting, but that's not handfull at all ... isn't there a more simple and direct way?

secondly i wonder if there is an option that makes that your concepts (i don't know if this is a good translation: concepts= messages you've been writing, but that are not sended, because they aren't finished) aren't always saved.

thank you all

you should be able to see word suggestion but you have to go to settings > language & input > xperia keyboard > personalization guide

if you are typing a txt and you don't finish typing but exit the app or open another app the message will be stored as draft > once you open the messaging app > conversation > it will be there, input box

if i go to the personalization guide, there ain't anything that goes about adding words directly to the dictionnary while your texting...

i know you can see the suggestions, but if you want to put NEW (dialectical) words into that list WHILE you are texting ... how is that working?

after you type a word few times the phone will learn the word.

settings > language & input > personal dictionary > add

that's nice to know !

i have 1 more question: ik I open the "wifi-menu" there appears a list of available connection. one of them (my own internetconnent, that i'm using home) is already marked with the words "saved, secured with WPA/WPA2" ... but when i press on it, there ain't changing anything (i think

how can you be sure that you've made a wifi internet connection?

and if you have, and you're downloading something (like from the play store) how can you be sure that it's downloaded via that wifi-connection and not via the connection you always have (I think that's called "the mobile connection!!

thank you for all the support!

simple, if your wifi its on the 3G/G/E/H/H+ or LTE icon will disappear, if you are still a bit uneasy on this, you could turn off your data plan/mobile connection and use the wifi only, remember you can't use both at the same time, its either or, unless you are on wifi and you send or receive an MMS then it will turn on for few seconds.
