T9 is overzealous about guessing

Post by v1nsai »

I use smart keyboard primarily for the T9. I love it and it works great, but I wish there was a way to prevent it from using keys I havent hit yet. For example, after typing "234", the first suggestion is "being", instead of only using what i've given it and making a word like "beg" it adds letters, which is sometimes convenient but sometimes I find myself scrolling through several more complex words looking for the 3 letter word that I only typed three characters for.

In general I think making it behave more like a regular phone in T9 would be nice, its so much faster than pecking at a full QWERTY keyboard.

Thanks for an awesome keyboard guys!

Right, that's exactly what is discussed here: http://www.dexilog.com/smartkeyboard/fo ... ?f=3&t=441 (though I prefer to see this in the "Feature" section than in the "Bugs" one ;) )
