    Hi everyone!

    Easy question.....(I hope)

    How to erase a single wrong entry (i.e. like my user name--misspelled by 1 letter) so it does not appear on the drop down menu of the autofill offers every time I log in here?

    Thanks.

    :)

    Nokia C3 - deleting a single call log entry

    Found a way: - Bring up your call list.

    Give a Long Touch on the single entry that you want to erase and a mini-menu will display showing 'Delete' (from list) or 'edit'. Choose delete and you're sorted Auto form fill in how to erase a single wrong entry? :)

    Auto form fill in how to erase a single wrong entry?

    First letter of sentence not auto capitalizing

    Mine auto-corrects to "don't". It might have been added to the dictionary on accident. But it looks like to remove added words from the dictionary, it is an all or nothing type deal.

    You can go to Settings > Keyboard > Typing Settings and hit "Reset Suggestions"

    This will clear out all the user added suggestions/auto-corrects (going back to the default suggestions/auto-corrects).

    It kind of sucks that you can't get a listing of added suggestions/auto-corrects and remove single entries, but oh well.

    Hope that helps.
