    About typing input methods
    The typing input method that you use determines how you type. For example, if you are using the predictive input method, your BlackBerry® smartphone displays a list of suggested words as you type so that you do not have to type the entire word.
    The language that you are typing in determines the typing input methods that are available. If you are typing in a language that
    has multiple typing input methods, you can switch between typing input methods when you are typing. When you are typing in
    certain fields such as password fields, your smartphone might automatically switch your typing input method.
