ENTERING TEXT
There are two main ways to enter text: using the predictive text dictionary to quickly
enter words, or alpha mode in which each key is tapped until the planned letter
appears.
DICTIONARY FOR PREDICTIVE TEXT ENTRY
Dictionary uses a predictive text system to enter words by pressing one key per letter
to display the planned word, instead of pressing keys multiple times until each planned
letter appears.
For example, to enter “Call me.” in a message, press:
C a l l m e .
When you press the 6 key and the 3 key, the word “of” appears on screen, because
the English dictionary ranks “of” as the most common word associated with the key
presses 6 and 3. To change the word “of” to “me”, press
once, and the word
changes.
DISPLAY PLANNED WORD MATCHES
If the correct word does not display, press
repeatedly to scroll through an
alternate word list. To choose from all the word matches, press and select
Dictionary > Matches.
ADD WORDS TO PREDICTIVE TEXT DICTIONARY
To add a word that is not already in the dictionary, press
and select Dictionary >
Insert word. You can also add the word to the dictionary when Spell softkey appears.
GENERAL TEXT ENTRY

Alpha mode - press each key repeatedly until planned letter appears.
