Selecting a Character Input Mode
Your phone provides convenient ways to enter words, letters,
punctuation, symbols, and numbers whenever you are prompted to
enter text (for example, when adding a Contacts entry or when
sending text messages).
To change the character input mode:
1. When you display a screen where you can enter text,
press the right softkey for Options. Soft key options
are not displayed when viewing existing messages.
2. Select a character input mode:
• T9 (English): to enter characters using predictive
T9 Text Input (see page 33).
• Alpha: to enter characters by tapping the keypad
(see page 34).
• Symbol: to enter symbols (see page 35).
• Number: to enter numbers (see page 35).
• Preset Msg: to enter a pre-prepared message, chosen
from a list of common phrases.
• Recent Msg: to reuse the text from a recent message.
• Emoticons: to enter emoticon symbols.
• Text Options: to customize your character input mode
(see page 146).
Note: Not all character input modes may be available for all phone
features. For instance, Preset Msg and Recent Msg are only available
when composing text and picture messages.
