M.S. Bellows, Jr.<p>Hey, <a href="https://c.im/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/GalaxyTabA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GalaxyTabA</span></a> and similar folks: my old tablet is nearly out of internal storage (15.8 of 16 GB used), but the more detailed breakdown only shows about 2.5 GB actually used (see pics)(because nearly all my apps and data are on the SD card). Any suggestions for finding/clearing out this Black Matter?</p>

Hanna Morre<p>Ennakoiva tekstinsyöttö. Mikä ihana ominaisuus kaltaiselleni hitaalle, boomer-tyylin töpöttäjälle.<br>Mutta nykyisen puhelimeni ennakoiva tekstinsyöttö lähinnä ahdistaa ja inhottaa tästä syystä.</p><p>Aluksi tää huvitti, mutta näin hiljalleen parin vuoden aikana huvittuminen on jäänyt pois. En tiedä miten tätä saisi muutettua. Mikään määrä käyttöä ei opeta tekstinsyöttöä lainkaan minun sanavarastooni. Jokin aiempi puhelimeni oppi sen ja se oli tosi helpottavaa, kun tunnisti suoraan usein käyttämät fraasini ja toistuvat asiat (kuten "Lisää blogissa. Linkki biossa ja storyssa.").<br>Mutta tämä ei opi muuta kuin ne sanat, jotka erikseen sille opetan.</p><p>Myöskään googlaushistoriasta on turha sanoa. Ei liity tähän mitenkään.
