Entering Characters Using T9 Text Input
T9 Text Input lets you enter text in your PCS Phone by pressing keys
just once per letter. (To select the Word mode when entering text, see
"Selecting a Character Input Mode" on page 59.)
T9 Text Input analyzes the letters you enter using an intuitive word
database and creates a suitable word. (The word may change as you
type.) If the word you want does not display after you have entered all
the letters, press
to scroll through additional word selections. To
accept a word and insert a space, press .
If you make a mistake, press to erase a single character. Press and
hold to delete an entire entry.
Adding a Word to the T9 Database
If a word you want to enter does not display as an option when you
are using T9 Text Input, you can add it to the database.
To add a word to the T9 Text Input database:
1. Select the Abc character input mode. (See “Selecting a
Character Input Mode”on page 59.)
2. Enter the word using multi-tap text entry. (See “Entering
Characters by Tapping the Keypad”on page 61.) The word will
appear as an option the next time you scroll through options
during T9 Text Input.
