Is there an option to delete samsung keyboard dictionary?

Samsung's keyboard not only remembers what I've typed into incognito browsers, but also emails from my contacts. They come up in every browser bar and whenever trying to sign into a website. When trying to remove by holding the word, it doesn't get removed. I can reset the entire app to erase the dictionary, but is there an easier way? Should I just use another keyboard?

I have the Note 5 on Sprint in the US

[Verizon LG G3] boostedcx:
Hello,

I recently purchased a bricked Verizon LG G3 that had bad software and does not appear to have hardware damage.

When I first got it, it was able to enter fastboot mode, and I was able to use fastboot to flash IMG files and regain download mode. After flashing to 24B, the phone would become stuck on the "Andy the Android" splash screen with his wiggling ears, and would not proceed. Next, I tried flashing the 10B TOT file, and it was successful - however now the phone was stuck on the LG logo during bootup. I tried wiping data/cache, but it was unsuccessful.

When I power the phone on now it goes right to Firmware Update Download Mode. When I try flashing using the KDZ or TOT LG Flash Tool programs, they both get stuck on 1% and fail with "Unable to communicate with phone". The device appears to be hard bricked now and I am out of ideas.

Does anyone know what I could try to troubleshoot?

Thank you!
[Verizon LG G3] boostedcx:
I should also mention that I entered QDLoader 9008 mode and pushed both the extracted KDZ and TOT files to the phone with BoardDiag, but it did not make any difference. I still have access to download mode.
[Verizon LG G3] minhas729:
U need to make sure u have right drivers... Did u chage the port settings to COM41 by going into device mangaer under ports see if u have lge device (or something like that) and then check its on COM41

I advise u to use 10B stock .. By tot method...

Here u can find right instructions.. Which i followed when i bricked it..

https://youtu.be/1WgXuxDbmbc

And stock 10B vs985 here...

http://lgg3root.com/lg-g3-stock-factory-firmware/

I have verizon vs985 lg g3 too.. Did all this.. And messaging from it

After stock u can use lgoneclickroot app for pc.. It will automatically root it. Just usb debugging enable.. Then flash new recory n go on to lollipop...

Try the most safe way bro

[Verizon LG G3] boostedcx:
Thanks for your reply. I tried flashing 10B using LG Flash Tool on two different PCs, using three different USB cables, and it always gets stuck when flashing Modem and then shows "Download FAIL!!" due to "Can't communicate with the Phone". The phone is detected correctly as LGE Mobile for VZW USB Serial Port (COM41). What can I do when LG Flash Tool will not flash? Thanks.
[Verizon LG G3] minhas729:
Don't loose hope mate..

U can take it to phone repairer.. They usually come with good solutions.. N it will not cost u more than a 6 to 7 bucks if you take it to market and explain wt it does..

I am pretty sure its all due to cable now..

As it says cant communicate..

For the very first time it did happen to me..

I wasnt using original cable tht came with cell.. I lost tht.. Luckily using the data cable of one of my old nokia phones, tht cable worked .

Keep trying cables..

If u have original that came with it.. Use it.. Or other.. If still same results.. Then market
[Verizon LG G3] boostedcx:
Thanks for your advice, but I am the phone repairman :) I've fixed hundreds of LG devices in similar conditions in the past, but this one appears to be very bricked. I've tried 5 cables now, including the original LG cable that came with the device. Same error, fails at 1% progress when flashing Modem.
[Verizon LG G3] minhas729:
Oh i see.. Who knows better than you then...

M pretty sure its not hard bricked.. Else it couldn't get detected...

Any hardware issues found?
[Verizon LG G3] boostedcx:
I live in a very rural area, and I am the only Android software repair shop in town. I agree, it is not hard bricked. No hardware issues were found, and I thoroughly inspected the device.
[Verizon LG G3] mopartonyg:
Hi I would uninstall all LG anything on your computer, download the driver from the LG site. Plug your phone in and get it into download mode. install the LG drivers with your phone plugged into the computer When they are done reboot and let the drivers install to your phone and then try KDZ again. Hope this helps. Good luck

Is it true that the onbaord GPS can self manage the GPS data to multiple apps( like the Trinity)?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Forrest81:
Yes, that is correct.

Go to Settings, system tab, then External GPS , access tab,

then tick the option 'automatically manage GPS (recommended)'.

(It should be something like that, because I have a Dutch ROM, so this is an educated guess :p )

Do you know the actual port the GPS is on? I'm trying to get iGo to work and it just hangs when I do autoseek. Strange thing is that Google maps has no trouble finding and using the built in GPS-hardware. Unfortunately it won't tell me what these settings are.

ROM-versie 1.25.172.0 25-6-07
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Forrest81:
I used COM port nr 6. I didn't change the hardware-port and the baudrate settings.

However, the first time, it took me about half an hour to get a GPS fix. But once he made the first fix, the next ones were very fast. Since then, he has a fix within 20 seconds.

Could you tell me about the Google Maps application? What is it about? Could you eventualy share the files?

Kaiser & Igo

I'm using iGo 2007 with the GPS settings left as standard. When I looked at these they were com 4 and 4800 baud. Memory map 5 uses the same settings and I've had no problems with either. I let WM6 manage the setting automatically as I have with all previous WM GPS Smartphones/PDAs.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rs8841:
GPS on Kaiser

I am using Windows Live with mine and the GPS port only seems to work on Com4, but like others, I leave the HW port and baud rate alone.

If you enable the QuickGPS it will help you lock onto a satellite quicker.

Last time I did this was about three years ago, I remember installing clockwork and loading the ROM from there.

Currently, I have my device rooted and a ROM selected, but I'm lacking the knowledge/means of loading the ROM to the device.

I've read that BMM (boot menu manager) is the way to go. The phone is rooted with stock 4.0.4. I cannot find BMM to be downloaded anywhere but off sketch looking websites I don't trust, and all different versions. I have no idea which is latest, or which version I need, or which of these plethora of sites google search lists is actually a trustable source to use.

If someone could provide a download link or something less vague that "BMM is the way to go" it would be greatly appreciated.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] k1o6r3:
Hello, I have a SPH-L900 since 2 years ago, I did the gsm mod and it worked perfectly, already bricked it sometimes and always got it back to work but I never knew the difference between the roms of SPH-L900 and N7100. Can anyone explain me the differences and maybe if you know it, what is needed to port a rom from N7100 to SPH-L900?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] NeoGman:
well i don't have to much experience with the N7100 but I've been building a lot with t0lte/l900. The first thing ill say is its not so much about porting the rom from n7100 as it is porting it too l900.

so with that said its hard to know were to start as i don't know how much experience you have. also since you use a gsm mod do you still use l900 roms or t0lte?

wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_l900

make sure you pay attention to the "Prepare the device-specific code" section

take a look at you cm.dependencies file to get a good idea of what repos your phone uses to build

github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_l900/blob/cm-12.1/cm.dependencies

so back to about porting roms to the l900 as long as its a cyanogenmod based rom its probably easier to start from your respective cm repo in are case the l900 repo then to try and convert the n7100 repo.

github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_l900/tree/cm-12.1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] k1o6r3:
Yeah, I'm still using L900 roms but there was one rom I've seen that asked for some kind of change in the files so it would match the N7100 roms. Never tried to do that. I'm not experient at building roms, I have some experience in programming since I'm an IT student. I was asking that because I wanted to try to port some roms but the day after I posted this I managed to break the digitizer while exchanging the outer glass, so no good now. Thanks for your help ^^

Upgrading firmware question

I have a samsung GalaxyS4G from T-Mobile,

Model # SGH-T959V

Firmware 2..3.6

Baseband Ver. T959VUVKJ6

Kernal 2.6.35.7-T959VUVKJ6-CL694130

Build# Gingerbread.VUVKJ6

3 days ago I was finally able to upgrade to this 2.3.6, prior to that I had only 2.2.1.

I was able to upgrade with Kies Mini thanks to Samsung support.

I contacted Samsung Support Friday asking if I could now upgrade again, I was given the standard answer that I always got when asking about upgrading from 2.2.1, "There is no upgrade for that phone" Just lucky I finally reached a agent at Samsung that had the knowledge or at least the willingness to help or I would still be stuck with Froyo 2.2.1.

I have rooted the phone with Kingo Root and it now shows the phone is rooted.

I am not looking for the sky but would like to at least up grade to Jellybean if not more.

System Storage Used 296 MB, 219 MB free. SD CARD has 130MB used ,839 MB free

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] slo_hand2:
I realize this phone is OLD and most people have moved on but I have only this phone given to me by my

Son I could not afford a new phone these days.

I am just trying to make this phone as close to today's newer phones as possible.

I was also told that with FROYO 2.2.1 I would get no better then 2G wifi, and that I needed to upgrade the phone to get better wifi service, I thought Gingerbread 2.3.6 was the answer but I only get on occasion 3G and have yet to get 4G LTE although I have a tower less then 2 miles from my house.

If anyone has some suggestions as to what is the best firmware this phone can handle it would be appreciated if you reply.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Wish39:
Hey man.

The only recent official firmware for this phone is 2.3.6. If you want to have Jelly Bean, then you will have to get a custom recovery and flash a custom Jelly Bean ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] slo_hand2:
YES I understand that is the official update, I am trying to get some input as to what version of Jellybean or ? would be good for this phone without killing speed.

Any suggestions Please

My biggest reason for upgrading is I only have 2G service with FROYO and most always with Gingerbread as well, I was told by T-Mobile I would not get any better then 2G with FROYO but I should get 4G LTE with Gingerbread 2.3.6 but I have not gotten even close to that and still drop signal a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Wish39:
Well then you can search up the Jelly Bean ROMS that are floating around. I don't know which one is the best, since I haven't flashed those yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lancelot136:
I have been searching for a rom but seems that this phone has very little support, yes it is 4 years old and only sole thru T-Mobile(as far as I know) but I was hoping some one with a lot more experience then me would have some suggestions on a Jellybean Rom or higher that would be appropriate for this phone.

Please if there is anyone here that may have some suggestions as to a better rom then Gingerbread, although Gingerbread is a vast improvement over FROYO2.2.1.

My main concern as I said before is getting better data service then 2G, I was told that Gingerbread would give me 4Glte but that has not happened even though I am only 2 miles from a T-Mobile tower, T-Mobile has said that this tower does serve 4Glte.

Is there an app that will improve my ability to get a better signal, I read somewhere about having to upgrade the phone's wifi ? to receive 4Glte ?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jossan:
1: go to settings and choose LTE, if not possible, no 4g

2: if your phone can'tuse 4g (hardware) then the OS changes Nothing
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ArmyofTracy:
As a former developer/tester and long time user of this phone (I still have one to play with) it is not capable of LTE. The best you will get is 4G. I got 4G even with official 2.3.6. So if your not you may need to have your SIM upgraded at the store. The best Rom I've used is slim which is 4.0.4. I didn't like the stock launcher so I flashed Xperia launcher 2.06b and it was great. If you're stuck on having JB which is still buggy...Mirage was the most reliable. Daothanduy was the developer. Good luck searching and how this helped

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I found the phone too slow to work with KitKat, but there were several solid Jellybean ROMs out there.

Read very carefully the upgrade threads and instructions as there are several low-level changes to the phone's firmware/software that are required to get off of "stock" and onto one of the KitKat ROMs. They're not "difficult" -- You just need to follow all the steps in the right order. Once you've got the right boot loader and are on an "MTD" ROM, changing between ROMs is reasonably straightforward.

Pick up a (paid) copy of TitaniumBackup Pro if you don't have one already. You'll be happy you did, even if it only provides piece of mind.

If the phone isn't rooted already, you may need "ODIN" (Windows only) or, my preference, "heimdal" to flash parts of the phone.

Anything you read about "WiFi performance sucks..." is likely only based on the visual indication of WiFi signal strength (RSSI) changing from the early releases to the custom ROMs. From what I could tell through actual throughput testing, there is no difference except for the RSSI.

It's a solid phone, though don't expect the GPS to lock reliably. There isn't a software fix for it, no matter what some claim. As far as I could tell, it was an RF-design or -execution problem. I have seen some threads suggesting some mechanical fixes for the antennas. I never pursued them so I can't comment further.

You're correct, it was only sold through T-Mobile. Official support for it was dropped like a rock when Apple won its infringement suit over Samsung. This was the phone that had all the infringement-claim boxes checked. Yep, you own a piece of patent-law history!

Samsung's source-code drops were horrendous and many of us worked to get subsequent versions of the kernel to run on the phone. As alluded to above, there were no upgrades to the proprietary binaries after the Gingerbread ROM.

I've still got one in the drawer, but it would take over three minutes to boot KitKat, so it wasn't terribly functional as a day-to-day phone.

The AMOLED screens do yellow with time. It's not your eyes ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] slo_hand2:
My main concern is getting better then the 2G I am presently getting, I have checked and I am getting 9 signals of different strengths I on occasion get3G bu it shows no bars during 3G and does not appear to connect during 3G.

I have up to 4G available in my area but this phone only wants to use 2G.

I did upgrade from FROYO2.2.1 to Gingerbread 2.3.6but I am thinking the modem in the phone is still the original that used FROYO.

At this point I am trying to find a upgrade or new modem software for this phone.

Any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Thanks to [MENTION=5198659]DickyG[/MENTION] for providing that link to the available modems. There haven't been any new modems in many years.

My recommendation would be to upgrade to one of the JellyBean or potentially KitKat ROMs and use TWRP (my preference) or CW recovery to make it "safer" to flash modems. The "best" modem depends somewhat on carrier and location. I personally found the KG4 modem to have the best performance for me of the modems that supported splitting long SMS messages.

The SGS 4G supports HSPA+ (and not LTE) as it's "best" connection. There is nothing software can do to get LTE.

HSPA+ isn't bad at all. I typically got 3-10 Mbps on T-Mobile in the San Francisco Bay area. Once you have decent bandwidth, the most important thing for "responsiveness" is latency. See, for example http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest and http://www.bufferbloat.net/ A higher-bandwidth connection doesn't help that and, in some cases, the higher-bandwidth connections seem slower as they have more latency (often due to the carrier's buffering).

While some "stock" ROMs (and a few custom ones) have been "tweaked" to show "4G" in the UI, it is just cosmetic.
