Auto Text Not Working On Blackberry Curve 8310
 

Hi All
Please could someone help me in getting the Autotext to work on my new blackberry curve, I have tried everything from enabling and disabling the funciton, downloading the lastest software, hard resetting. What is strange is when I switch to a weird language like chinese the auto text works but in any form of English it wont work. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Are there any entries in your AutoText at Options > AutoText?

Yeah, what JSanders said. I think that's what you're missing.

Thank you for your reply

Try this: type in an email, im and press space. The space activates the Autotext. You should get" I'm".

You may thin AutoText is something like predictive typing. It is not. It is a great shortcut, though.

Autotext & predictive text
 

I feel a bit of a fool - it is the predictive text which I cant get working at all - this is what I am having the problem with - thanks again. :oops:

The curve does not have predictive text as it already has a qwerty keyboard and typing the whole word is simply faster than predictive text once you've had a few days to get used to it.

Spot on, just the answer I was searching for.

Ok, so what if the space DOESN'T activate the AutoText feature? I have a user that is having the same trouble, however when he presses the space bar, it does NOT fix the word(s). There must be a way to toggle the setting. He says he was typing on it and did some kind of combination of keys (by accident of course) and has disabled the feature. Any ideas?

Nevermind. I found my answer after searching a little further on another board.

Please help
 

Hello,

Could someone tell me how to solve the issue of AutoText entries missing? Things like im, hte, na, etc. the very common ones are missing from AutoText. Is there a way to reload the default AutoText entries?

Thanks
