Getting to know your phone
General instructions
Regardless of which input method you choose, your
phone has a function to speed up the entry of Chinese
characters. Whenever you enter a stroke or a Pinyin
letter, a candidate row of the most frequently used
characters containing that stroke or relating to that
letter appears at the bottom of the screen.
If the character you want is not displayed in the
candidate row, press
to present another
candidate row. Continue pressing until the
character you want is displayed. Alternatively, you
can enter the next stroke or Pinyin letter and a new
set of characters will immediately be displayed in
the candidate row. To go back to the previous row,
press
. To select a character in the candidate
row, press the navigation key or press and hold the
key corresponding to the number above the
character you want to enter.
Stroke input

are more than 30 basic strokes, which are grouped
into 5 stroke categories. Each category is
represented on the keypad by one of the keys
- . The Wild Card key , is used
when you are not sure of which stroke to use.
