your own needs.

Entering letters
There are two ways of entering letters,
for example, when writing a message
or writing a name in contacts:
•
Multitap text input
You press each key as many times as
needed to show the letter you want.
•
T9™ Text Input
The T9 Text Input method uses a
built-in dictionary to recognize the
most commonly used word for each
sequence of key presses. This way,
you press each key only once, even
if the letter you want is not the first
letter on the key.
You can always choose language
according to SIM by pressing
8888
in standby.
You can always choose English by
pressing
0000
in standby.
