Selecting a Text Input Mode

Your phone provides convenient ways to enter letters,
numbers, and symbols whenever you are prompted to
enter text (for example, when adding a Contacts entry
or when composing text and multimedia messages).

To choose a text input mode:

At a screen requiring you to enter text, press / to
change the text input mode.

2.

Select one of the following options:

Alpha

to enter text directly using the keypad.

Word

to enter text using a predictive text system

that reduces the number of key presses required
while entering a word. (See page 16.)

Symbols

to enter punctuation and other symbols.

(See page 18.)

Numeric

to enter numbers by pressing the

numbers on the keypad. (See page 18.)

Text Input Settings

allows you to change the

settings for text input mode. (See page 17.)

(

) or additional multimedia elements

such as pictures or audio files into a message.
(See page 54.) (You can also access Quick Notes
by pressing

a message.)

Entering Text Using Word Text Input

Word Text Input (T9) reduces the number of keystrokes
needed to enter a word by predicting complete words
as you type. While you enter letters, Word mode
matches your keystrokes to words in its database and
displays the most commonly used matching word. You
can add your own words to this database.

Tip:

When entering text, press and hold the # to change
letter capitalization (ABC

>

Abc

>

abc).
