Entering Text
Selecting a Character Input Mode
Your phone provides convenient ways to enter words, letters,
punctuation, and numbers whenever you are prompted to
enter text (for example, when adding a Contacts entry or
when using Sprint Mail and SMS Text Messaging).
To change the character input mode:
1. Within a text entry screen, select Options () to
change the character input mode.
Tip:
If the character modes do not appear after pressing the right
softkey, try entering a single character in the entry field and
then pressing the right softkey again.
Note:
Although text can also be entered via the Main LCD as well, it
is recommended that you utilize the phone’s keypad to enter
the message’s text.
Text entry using the MP3 side of the phone relies more
heavily on up/down scrolling and word selections based on
your Used word Dictionary and Prediction Start features.
