Entering text
When using your phone, you will often need to enter
text, such as when storing a name in Phonebook,
creating your personal greeting, or scheduling events on
your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by
using your phone’s keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• ABC mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the
key labelled with the letter you want. Press the key
once, twice, three, or four times until the desired
letter displays.
• T9 mode
This mode allows you to enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has more
than one letter; for example, pressing the
5
key can
enter J, K, or L. However, T9 mode automatically
compares the series of keystrokes you make with an
internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most
likely word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than
the traditional Alphabet mode.
• Number mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
• Symbolic mode
This mode allows you to enter various symbols and
punctuation marks.
