Section 5: Entering Text
This section outlines how to select the desired text input mode
when entering characters into your phone. This section also
describes how to use the T9 predictive text entry system to
reduce the amount of key strokes associated with entering text.
Changing the Text Input Mode
The Text Input option switches the key entry functions from T9
Mode, ABC Mode, Numeric Mode, and Symbols Mode.
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, pressing the 5 key can enter
J, K, or L. However, the T9 mode automatically compares
the series of keystrokes you make with an internal
linguistic dictionary to determine the most likely word, thus
requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional Alphabet
mode.
ABC Mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the key
labeled with the letter you want. Press the key once, twice,
three, or four times until it displays.
Numeric Mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
Symbols Mode
This mode allows you to enter symbols, such as
punctuation marks.
When you are in a field that allows characters to be entered, you
will notice the text input mode indicator on the display.
