Entering Text
You can enter alphanumeric
characters by using the phone’s
keypad. For example, storing
names in the Address Book,
writing a message, or creating
scheduling events in the calendar
all require entering text.
The following text input methods
are available on 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.
A long press changes the mode to
123.
