Entering Text
You can enter alphanumeric characters by using the
phone’s keypad. For example, storing names in the
Address Book, writing a message, creating scheduling
events in the calendar all require entering text. The
following text input methods are available in the
phone.
T9 Mode
This mode allows you to enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has more
than one letter. The T9 mode automatically compares
your keystrokes with an internal linguistic dictionary
to determine the correct word, thus requiring far fewer
keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.
ABC Mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the
key labeled with the required letter once, twice, three
or four times until the letter is displayed.
123 Mode (Numbers Mode)
Type numbers using one keystroke per number. To
change to 123 mode in a text entry field, press
key until 123 mode is displayed.
Symbolic Mode
This mode allows you to enter special characters.
Changing the Text Input Mode
1. When you are in a field that allows characters to be
entered, you will notice the text input mode
indicator in the upper right corner of the display.
2. If you want to change modes, press .
The available modes are changed.
Note
]
Some fields may allow only one text input mode
(e.g. telephone number in address book fields).
