Understanding Your Phone 37
Entering Text
This section describes how to select the desired text input
method when entering characters into your phone. This
section also describes the predictive text entry system that
reduces the amount of key strokes associated with entering
text.
Your phone comes equipped with an orientation detector that
can tell if the phone is being held in an upright (Portrait) or
sideways (Landscape) orientation. This is useful when
entering text.
Text Input Methods
There are three text input methods available:
• Google voice typing: allows you to enter text by speaking.
• Samsung keyboard (default): Samsung’s on-screen QWERTY
keypad that can be used in both portrait and landscape
orientation.
• Swype: a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of
tapping each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a
word.
To change the input method, see “Keyboards and Input
Methods” on page 104.
Entering Text Using the Samsung Keyboard
From a screen where you can enter text, rotate your phone
counterclockwise to a Landscape orientation. The on-screen
QWERTY keypad displays.
