2.3 Phone Pad
Phone Pad is a Soft Input Panel (SIP) application that provides a flexible alternate input
method. With it, you can easily switch among three input modes (T9, Multi-Tap, and
Numeric) plus a Symbols menu, with greater convenience.
Using Phone Pad
Phone Pad can be activated at any time, except when in the Today screen or when in
Camera mode. To use Phone Pad, tap-and-hold the Keyboard icon which is shown near
the lower right corner of your screen, next to the triangular-shaped menu icon. Then
select Phone Pad from the menu to open the Phone Pad input panel.
Using T9 to Input Text
By default, Phone Pad is in T9 mode. It is the easiest and most convenient way to input
text in English. As you press alphanumeric buttons on the Phone Pad input panel, T9
tries to automatically match the letters you have selected with the most likely completed
word.
To type a word: Simply tap on the numeric keypad.
