deleting auto correct words

Hi.

 

Auto correct remembers words I mispelled and I want to delete them.

 

Also,  some words never get into the auto complete list.

 

Do I have to do a hard reset or can I delete wrong entries individually?

 

Any help appreciated.

It should not be necessary to carry out "hard reset" but unfortunately we get no idea of your current registerd Nokia device upon forum so don't know whether this thread of any use to you:http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Messaging-Email-Browsing-and/nokia-5230-removing-predictive-text-fro...

 

If you have installed file manager such as X-plore upon device (need to enable show hidden & system files), for example upon E72 T9 dictionary is stored in C:\Predic\2000BEFB_F.dat

Re: deleting auto correct words

Many, many thanks!  This much less frustration in my life!   Who needs to fight the auto complete on  dozen words or so?  No one, that's right.

 

If I could only choose French as the third language on my phone, instead of Finnish, I'd be really happy.  But that's another topic.

 

Thanks for the help.

 

All the best,

/Claude
