Well, I'm just trying to create a memo field in this case, where the user can enter arbitrary text as a note to him or herself. From what I've seen and read, setting the android:inputType attribute chooses an appropriate input method for on-screen typing (for instance on the Nexus One). I've been able to get this to work, more or less, in the 2.2 emulator and on my Nexus One for numbers: I typically get a number only soft-keyboard. But what I want for this memo field is the auto-correct/auto-complete dictionary to appear at the top of the keyboard as seen in Google Search, the Facebook app, and others, but regardless of the combination of option flags I use for either EditText that does not appear.

I've been digging around in the keyboard code a bit, maybe I can help.

As I understand it, all text input should give you the options unless specifically turned off. Also, it will be turned off for some input types e.g. phone numbers (actually pretty much most things that don't use the qwerty keyboard and have specialized keyboards).

If you give me an example of what your trying, and I'll see if I can find the logic that enables or disables the autocorrect.
