Default BlackBerry Prank

Please Login to Remove!

I want to pull a prank on my girlfriend by getting her blackberry to autocorrect certain words when she text messages. ex. "Egg" would be corrected as "Duck"

i don't have any clue about blackberrys so i need some step to step instructions if it's even possible to do... she has a blackberry 8330 smartphone (CDMA) v4.3.0.124. I hope that helps.

Also as a side note... if anyone wants to possibly throw in some funny word corrections that would be awesome!

^^^ please keep it appropriate!

There is no "Autocorrect" option.

LOL. I have to agree. Leave her phone alone, and get her some roses instead. She will appreciate it more than having to knee you in the sack for messing with her phone.

Sure there is.
If she catches him messing around with her BB, she'll "autocorrect" him.

"Autocorrect" will entail her smashing her BB upside his head. Repeatedly. I don't know if it will work, but hey, it's worth a try!
