Entering Text
You may need to enter text, when storing a
name in Contacts, creating your personal
greeting, or scheduling events in your calendar.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
•
T9 mode
*
This mode allows you to enter words with only
one keystroke per letter. Each key on the
keypad has more than one letter. For example,
when you press the
5
key once, J, K, or L may
be displayed. The T9 mode automatically
compares your keystrokes with an internal
linguistic dictionary to determine the correct
word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than
the traditional ABC mode.
•
ABC mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by
pressing the key labelled with the letter you
want once, twice, three, or four times until the
letter is displayed.
•
Number mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
•
Symbol mode
This mode allows you to enter special
characters, like punctuation marks.
Changing the Text Input Mode
When you are in a field that allows characters to
be entered, the text input mode indicator
appears at the bottom of the display.
