selecting email/sms text
 
I tried searching but couldnt find anything or the search was "too common" even with the *....

How in the world do you select text from an email/sms so I can copy and paste it into another email/sms? Everytime I try it just scrolls the page when trying to highlight the text.

Weird, when the text gets highlighted right click, copy and paste in the desired area. Cant do this with Iphone...

Im using my finger to highlight the text in the email but sometimes it'll highlight it but 99% of the time it'll just scroll the page no matter how slow or fast I go.

Right click? on my phone? Whatch-u-talkin-bout willis?

Use your stylus, make sure you don't flick, just highlight whatever you want to copy. I just did it like 20 times to test and it didnt scroll once. Using my finger was a different story.....

I've experienced the same thing sometimes when I try to highlight a large body of text. It is annoying, but you get used to it after a while.

Tapping and holding your fingernail/stylus on the screen is the equivalent of right clicking.

Thank you. As expected it was something dumb and now I feel like an idiot. Sad thing is, thats the first time Ive ever pulled my stylus out.

I've had really good luck using the tip of my fingernail to highlight, and the skin of my finger to scroll... works at least 95% of the time.
