T9 mode
This mode lets you enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has more
than one letter. The T9 mode automatically compares
your keystrokes with an internal dictionary to
determine the correct word, thus requiring far fewer
keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode. This is
sometimes known as predictive text.
ABC mode
This mode lets you enter letters by pressing the key
labelled with the required letter once, twice, three or
four times until the letter is displayed.
123 mode (Number mode)
Type numbers using one keystroke per number. To
change to 123 mode in a text entry field,
press
the key until 123 mode is displayed.
Changing the text input mode
1. When you are in a field that
allows characters to be
entered, you will notice the
text input mode indicator in
the upper right corner of the
LCD screen.
2. Change the text input mode by
pressing . You can check
the current text input mode in
the upper right corner of the
LCD screen.
Using the T9 mode
The T9 predictive text input mode lets you enter
words easily with a minimum number of key presses.
As you press each key, the phone begins to display
the characters that it thinks you are typing based on
the built-in dictionary. You can also add new words in
the dictionary. As new words are added, the word
changes to reflect the most likely candidate from the
dictionary.
