739906 - Auto-correct should be disabled in the advanced sync setup dialog

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Android Sync, defect, P2)

Description

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

Attachment: auto-correct in sync setup

Fennec/14.0a1 2012-03-27
Device: Motorola Droid 2 (Android 2.3)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the Sync Setup Scene.
2. Choose Advance setup.
3. Start typing an account name or a recovery key.

Expected results:
The auto-correct is disabled in the account name and recovery key fields since most often the values entered will not be valid dictionary words.

Actual results:
Auto-correct is active and the words are highlighted as being misspelled.

I am seeing the same issues on other logins in webpages like on hotmail.com or aol.com. This may be a general Fennec issue.

Sounds like you might have auto-correction set to aggressive.

Comment 3

The auto-correct is using the default settings. I have not done any changes to the settings. Using the same settings the issue is not reproducible on the Android Browser or Dolphin HD but is reproducible on Opera Mobile.

STR:

- Start Sync setup, click on "Advanced Setup"
- Enter credentials

Expected:
Text does not have red spellcheck underlining, and there is no autocorrection.
