save time using predictive text input
Predictive text uses a dictionary to recognise certain
combinations of letters to create words, allowing you to write
text messages faster.
To activate T9 mode press under Eng until you see T9
along the top of your display.
To enter text using predictive input you only need to press the
key for a letter once. So, for example, to write the word
orange
you would press 6, 7, 2, 6, 4 and 3. You will see that the word
does not appear on screen immediately - don’t worry, that’s how
it works.
When you have finished pressing all of the keys, the word
should appear on screen. Press # to accept the word or press
+
repeatedly to view the alternative word options. When the
right word appears press #. A space will automatically be added
and you can start to enter the next word.
send longer text messages
Your phone will automatically link up to 12 messages enabling
you to write messages containing up to 1920 characters.
The numbers in the top left of your message compose screen
count down from 160 to show how many characters you
have left in each message. On the right of the screen the
number of messages out of twelve will be displayed.
If you add objects to your message, the number of characters
available will decrease.
Note : You will be charged for each text message sent at your
standard Service Plan rate.
