LG VX-8100
T9 Editor Software
Hello -- New to the forum, but have been lurking for a while.
Ok, I'm looking for a T9 Editor program that you can use to easily manipulate the T9 dictionary on my LG 8100. I've found software for Smartphones, but it's for editing dictionary files ending in "udb" and not "dat." MST9Ed is such a program and has an easy interface that will list the words in the dictionary, and a button for Delete, with a field to enter new words into the file. The Hex Editor process for the t9udb_eng.dat file is horrid, and there are words in my phone's dictionary that my Hex editor program doesn't even find.
Has anyone run across any software that can be used with the 8100 that would make this easier?
Many thanks.

What you are trying to do is way beyond anything I have worked with. Let me just ask you this - Did you know that you can edit, or train, the dictionary on the phone by entering a word manually and hitting the star key immediately after the last letter? This enters the new word into the phone's dictionary.
Sorry if this is too simple, it works for me.

I do know that you can add words to the dictionary from the handset. You can do this just by hitting the space key after you've typed in a word.
You may not realize that you can add words uninentionally as well, resulting in garbage in the dictionary. You also may not realize that sometimes words that you have added are replaced with other words you added (even garbage words) because of limitations in the amount of bytes allocated to the dictionary file.
Thanks for trying to be helpful, but what I'm asking is beyond what you can do with the handset itself.

You are correct, I did not know any of that. Thanks for the info. Good luck on finding the software you need.
