Entering Text
When using your phone, you will often need to enter text.
For example, when storing a name in the phonebook,
creating your personal greeting or scheduling events in
your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by
using your phone’s keypad.
You are provided with the following text input modes.
● 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 – when you press the
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
traditional upper/lower-case character modes.
● Upper/lower-case character modes: These modes
allow you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled
with the required letter once, twice, three or four times
until the letter is displayed.
● Number mode: This mode allows you to enter
numbers.
● Symbol mode: This mode allows you to enter
symbols, such as punctuation marks.
Changing the Text Input Mode
When you are in a field that allows characters to be
entered, you will notice the text input mode indicator in the
display.
