    Customizing SMS retention periods during back up

    Hey all, I have my SMS backing up regularly to a file in my google drive. There are so many sms threads backing up, that it significantly affects the google drive space I have. Is there an intelligent back-up utility of some sort that just deletes messages say over 6 months old, or over a...

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    Worked for a little while then everything came back. Something is re-synching it nightly or something.

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    I've seen this explanation in a couple places now. Trying it. Seems to have worked for now, but I'll see if it "sticks" or of it recurs like before.

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    I went into Samsung Account settings and turned off some of the syncing stuff that would perhaps be associated with e-mails and such (gmail, people, and social media accounts). Then I cleared the keyboard data. 24 hours later all the learned words are back. Every e-mail address in my gmail...

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    Noticed lately that its getting worse. Its now suggesting home and personal email addresses of people I know from work. Thing is, I never knew or used their home or personal email addresses. I just use their work email addresses, and never on this phone. I think it is somehow lifting the email...

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    This is maddening. Using the basic Samsung Keyboard on my S6 Edge Plus, I get endless suggested words in the form of an equally endless array of e-mail addresses. It seems every e-mail address to ever interact with my gmail is considered a learned word. I have cleared it many times as...

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    It works for a day or so but something is bringing all the deleted learned stuff back every day. What's the deal?

    Nice and easy! Thanks! Samsung support had me do that to my text message app. It deleted all my conversations. Thanks again!!!

    I want to clear "learned words" on my Galaxy S6 Edge PLus

    Whenever I write a text message, the predictive process always suggests learned words as I begin typing a word. In my case, it is suggesting every e-mail address that my gmail has ever received an e-mail from, that has been CC'd on an e-mail I have received, or that I have sent an e-mail to...

    How do I clear learned words?

    That helps clear one learned word at a time as it pops up. However, I am looking for a solution where I can clear all learned words. For the S5 you could do it this way: Menu > Android settings > System > Language & input > Samsung Keyboard > Predictive text > tap both "Clear Server data" and...
