Remove words from prediction?

---

Hi,

did anyone find a way to remove the words that IME automatically adds to the dictionary? in case you add some garbage by mistake.

update
found a file in /data/data/com.htc.htcime called udb which seems to have the words in it but it's in a format I dont see how to edit.

mmm, my /data dir seems to be empty? At least, various file mgrs claim so. Can't check from the cmdline owing to ConnectBot kbd bug.

yep, think you need root to see the folder's content.

anyway, deleting that folder cleared the keyboard "word cache". Not the best way but it worked.

thanks; good info.

I read that getting root disabled the ability to download paid apps from Market; is that true?

Not on my Hero, just bought Tweetcat a few hours ago with no problem

marvelous! thanks, I wanted to get root to use nandroid backup, but was worried; any other downsides to getting root?
