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.
