Entering Letters and Numbers
You can enter letters and numbers into your phone for a person’s name
and phone number, writing a text message, etc. The pound (#) key
toggles from uppercase mode to lowercase mode to eZiText mode. In
eZiText mode, your phone tries to predict what word you are entering
and fill in the rest of it. If the phone guesses wrong, just keep entering
the word correctly, because your keystrokes override the phone’s
guesses. To pick the word that the phone has guessed, press the * key.
See also Reference Information...Entering Text, in the back of this
manual.
To enter letters: find the key that has the letter you want on it. Press the
key repeatedly until the letter you want appears on the screen.
Depending on the selected display language, the following characters
may be available:
Note: When you are dialing a call, you can get the “+” sign by holding
down the zero key. For more information, see 10.6, eZiText.
Navigating the Menu
Navigating through the menu quickly becomes intuitive. For purposes of
explanation, your phone’s navigation is best simplified. All you really need
to do is use the following steps as they come up:
Scroll with the arrow keys until what you want is highlighted
Select it with the Send key
Type letters using the keyboard
Cancel typed letters using the C (Cancel) key
Cancel or back up a step using the End key.
Take a common situation. Suppose you want to look at the Call Log, and
add a missed number to the Phone’s memory. You could use the
sequence:
Menu>Call Log>Missed Calls, select a number, Option>Save>Add to
Phone.
The sequence above is simple and very understandable, and
corresponds exactly to the menu chart given in the section of this manual
that follows. Therefore we will continue to explain things using similar
sequences and menu charts. It is better not to list all the button pushes,
as they would only be confusing. For example, in reality, the sequence
above would look like the following table.
