Entering Text
When using your phone, you will often need to enter text. For
example, when storing a name in the phonebook, creating your
personal greeting or scheduling events in your calendar. You
can enter alphanumeric characters by using your phone’s
keypad.
You are provided with the following text input modes.
●
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 – when you press the
5
key once, J, K or L
may be displayed. 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 upper/lower-case character
modes.
●
Upper/lower-case character modes
: These modes
allow you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with
the required letter once, twice, three or four times until the
letter is displayed.
●
Number mode
: This mode allows you to enter numbers.
●
Symbol mode:
This mode allows you to enter symbols,
such as punctuation marks.
