7 Text entry
You can use two methods for entering text and numbers.
• Standard mode is the only way to enter names into Contacts and to rename
caller groups.
• Predictive text input is a quick and easy method for writing messages.
Press the Pound key to switch predictive text on or off and to use predictive text
in various modes.
• STANDARD MODE
• Press a key once to insert the first letter on the key, twice for the second letter,
etc. If you pause briefly, the last letter in the display is accepted and your
phone awaits the next entry.
• Select Clear to backspace the cursor and delete a character.
• Select and hold Clear to backspace continuously and delete characters.
• Press the 0 key to enter a space and accept a completed word.
• Press the 1 key to enter a period.
• Press the Star key to display special characters. See “Enter punctuation and
special characters” on page 21.
To switch to 123 mode from Abc mode, press and hold the Pound key at any
message entry screen until the icon in the upper left corner of the display switches
from Abc to 123 (or vice versa).
• PREDICTIVE TEXT
Predictive text input allows you to write messages quickly using your keypad
and the built-in phone dictionary. It is much faster than using the standard
mode “multi-tap” method. You can use predictive text to write a message and
create a calendar note.
