Section 5: Entering Text

This section outlines how to select the desired text entry mode
using the phone keypad or the nested, QWERTY keyboard-style
keypad. This section also describes how to use T9 predictive
text entry.

Built-in QWERTY Keypad

This phone offers the convenience of a slideout QWERTY
keyboard. Using the QWERTY keyboard, you can type letters,
numbers, punctuation, and other special characters into text
entry fields or other applications simpler and faster than using
the telephone keypad.

Note: Two of your phone’s functions (@metro and MetroWEB) require use of

the QWERTY keypad. You can use either the keypad or QWERTY
keyboard fro all other text entry functions such as, Messaging and
Memo Pad.

Changing the Text Entry Mode

When creating text messages, you can use alphabetical
characters, numbers, and symbols. Use the following text entry
modes to simplify text entry:

T9 Word — Press each phone key only once to enter the letter of the

word. T9 WORD mode letter options are:

T9 word: Enter all lower case letters

T9 Word: Enter initial capital letters

T9 WORD: Enter all upper case letters

Note: The QWERTY keypad does not use T9 Word.

Abc: Enter letters, numbers, and symbols by using the QWERTY

keypad or by repeatedly pressing each phone key until the desired
character displays on the screen. ABC mode letter options are:

abc: Enter all lower case letters

Abc: Enter initial capital letters

ABC: Enter all upper case letters
