Entering text
Input mode
On many occasions you need to input text in your phone
such as: storing the name in your Address Book, writing a
new message, creating a greeting, or scheduling events on
your calendar.
You can select from the following methods (modes) of
inputting text in your phone.
T9 mode
You can input a letter using only one keystroke per letter.
The keypad has more than one letter on it – 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
conventional ABC mode (see below).
ABC mode
In this mode, you input the letter you want by pressing the
keypad once to select the first letter on the key, twice to
select the second letter on the key, three times to select
the third letter on the key and so on until the letter you want
appears.
123 mode
You can input numbers in this mode.
Symbol mode
You can input special characters like Greek letters, currency
units, or a period mark in this mode.
To change Text input mode
When you are in an area where you can input text, the
text input mode indicator is displayed at the bottom of your
screen.
Example: Typing a Text Message.
