Basics
Entering Text
Your Sprint PCS Phone provides four different ways to
enter words, letters, punctuation, and numbers whenever
you are required to enter text (for example, when
entering a Contact entry or when using the phone’s
messaging features). They are:
ⅷ
T9 (English) - Allows you to enter text using a predictive
text entering system that reduces the amount of keys
that need to be pressed while entering a word.
ⅷ
Alpha - Allows you to cycle through the alpha
characters associated with the letters on the keypad.
ⅷ
Symbol - Allows you to enter symbols using
the keypad.
ⅷ
Number - Allows you to enter the numbers by pressing
the corresponding number on the keypad.
To enter text using Alpha:
1. From a text entry screen (for example, a contact
entry), press
(Options) and select Alpha.
2. Use your keypad to enter the contact's name. (For
example, to enter "Bill," press
twice, three
times, three times, and three times again.)
