Entering Text
Various text entry methods make it easy for you to enter names,
numbers, email addresses, and text messages on your phone.
You can enter all characters (letters, numbers, and symbols)
using the standard tap method. Other text modes let you easily
enter numbers and symbols, or insert text already stored on your
phone. Finally, a predictive text mode lets you enter text
messages with a minimum of keypresses.
Choosing a Text Mode
To activate a text mode, press
M
from any text entry screen
and select the text mode from the
Entry Method
menu:
Note:
The text mode you select remains active until you change
it by selecting another mode.
iTAP
Let the phone predict each word as you enter it,
then choose the word from a list (see “Predictive
Text Entry with iTAP™ Software” on page 52).
Tap Method
Enter characters one at a time by pressing the
key for the letter, number, or symbol (see “Tap
Method” on page 48). This is the standard mode
for entering text on your phone.
Numeric
Enter only the number that appears on each key.
Symbol
Enter symbols only (see “Symbol Mode” on
page 51).
Browse
Browse through your phonebook and recent
calls lists to select a name or number to enter.
