Entering letters and
characters
When writing messages and notes there are two
ways to enter letters and characters:
• Multitap text input
• T9™ Text Input
To enter letters using multitap input
• Press - repeatedly until the desired
character appears on the screen.
•Press to shift between capital and lower-case
letters.
• Press and hold - to enter numbers.
• Press to delete letters and numbers.
• Press for the most common punctuation
marks.
• Press to add a space.
T9™ Text Input
The T9 Text Input method uses a built-in
dictionary to recognize the most commonly used
word for each sequence of key presses. This way,
you press each key only once, even if the letter you
want is not the first letter on the key.
Most SIM cards automatically set the menu language
to the country/region where you bought your SIM
card. If not, the predefined language is English.
Multitap input only applies when Latin characters are
selected as writing language.
