Text Entry Modes
You can compose text messages using alphabetical characters, symbols, and

text entry mode. There are four text entry modes, as indicated:
• Alpha — Alphabetical text entry mode. Options are:
• ABC — All upper case
• Abc — Initial capital
• abc — All lower case
• Korean — Korean text entry mode. Allows you to enter Korean characters.
• Symbol — Symbol entry mode. Enter symbols into your message or memo by
pressing the corresponding number that appears above it in the display.
• 123 — Number entry. Enter numbers by pressing the corresponding key on the
keypad.
• T9Abc — Predictive text mode. Press each key only once to enter the letter of the
word that you’re spelling.
