To switch to 123 mode from Abc mode, press and hold the # key at any message

Punctuation and special characters
While at any text entry screen, press the * key to display special characters (press
and hold the * key if predictive text is on). Press the * key again to cycle through
all available characters. You can navigate through the list of special characters
by using the Four-way scroll key. Once a character is highlighted, press Insert to
insert the character into your message.
■ Predictive text input
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.
When you use Predictive text , as you press the # key, the following icons (not the
descriptions) appear in the upper left of the display screen:
Sentence case text: predictive text is on
Lowercase text: predictive text is on
Activate/deactivate
There are several ways to activate/deactivate predictive text.
At any text entry screen, press and hold Options. Predictive text is turned on and
off, depending on its previous mode.
From any text entry screen, press the # key to turn predictive text on and off, and
to change the case text.
At any text entry screen, select Options > Predictive text or Prediction off.
