Section 4: Entering Text

This section describes how to select the desired text input
method when entering characters into your phone. This
section also describes the predictive text entry system that
reduces the amount of key strokes associated with entering
text.

Your phone comes equipped with an orientation detector that
can tell if the phone is being held in an upright (Portrait) or
sideways (Landscape) orientation. This is useful when
entering text.

Text Input Methods

There are three text input methods available:

Samsung keyboard (default): Samsung’s on-screen QWERTY

keypad that can be used in both portrait and landscape

orientation.

Swype: a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of

tapping each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a

word.

Google voice typing: allows you to enter text by speaking.

To change the input method, see “Keyboards and Input
Methods”
on page 131.

Entering Text Using the Samsung

Keyboard

From a screen where you can enter text, rotate your phone
counterclockwise to a Landscape orientation. The on-screen
QWERTY keypad displays.

Changing the Text Input Mode - Keypad

There are two main keypad layout keys that will change the
on-screen keys within the QWERTY keypad.
