Punctuation and special characters
While at any text entry screen, press * to display special characters (press and
hold * if predictive text is on). Press * again to cycle through all available
characters. Scroll to navigate through the list of special characters. Once a
character is highlighted, select Insert to insert the character into your message.
■ Predictive text mode
Predictive text input allows you to write messages quickly using your keypad and
the built-in dictionary. It is much faster than the standard mode method,
because for each letter, you only press the corresponding key on your keypad
once.
Activate or deactivate
At any text entry screen, select and hold Options to turn predictive text on or off
depending on previous mode, or select Options > Predictive text > Prediction on
or Prediction off. Press # twice to change from predictive text mode to standard
mode and back.
Enter text
