Another Playstation Error (8002AB0B)
Yet another error message today, this time when trying to send a message to a friend. I first received the message when I tried to reply to a message received. So I canceled out of the message, repeated the process and got the same error message, repeated and got it again for a third time. So I changed what I typed and it went through without a problem. So I tried one last time with the original message and the error came up once more. Maybe it was something I was writing? “what u doing ?” hardly seems like a message to cause problems. The message that did work: “hi”.
After a quick look online I found that some other people were having the same error. They recommended removing the punctuation from the end of the message, and sure enough it worked. To further test this I tried to send another message, “what u playing ?” and once again I got the error message.
To narrow the problem down this is what I think causes the issue. It is not the fact that there is a punctuation at the end of the message. But it is due to there being a space and then the punctuation by itself. “_?” When I remove the space the same message sends without a problem. So you might ask, why is there a space in the first place? When using the prediction that is to the right of the keyboard it will always put a space after the word to prepare for the next. So if your whole message is predicted… what u doing… then it will put a space after “doing”. If you don’t remove the space [square on the controller] before you put the punctuation then it will cause an error.
Update: So I have refined the problem a little further, it is not the fact that there is a space between the last word and a punctuation, but it is due to there being a space between the last work and a punctuation when the space was created due to the word predictor. If you put in a space your self, then it does not trigger the error. But if you use the word predictor and then a punctuation without removing the space, like clock work the error comes up.
