Entering Text
You may need to enter text, when storing a name
in Contacts, creating your personal greeting or
scheduling events in your calendar.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• 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,
when you press the 5 key once, J, K or L may
be displayed. The T9 mode automatically
compares your keystrokes with an internal
linguistic dictionary to determine the correct
word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than
the traditional ABC mode.
• ABC mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by
pressing the key labelled with the letter you
want once, twice, three or four times until it is
displayed.
• Number mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
• Symbol mode
This mode allows you to enter special
characters, like punctuation marks.
Changing the Text Input Mode
When you are in a field that allows characters to
be entered, the text input mode indicator appears
at the bottom of the display.
Example: When you write a memo, the following
screen displays:
* T9 is a registered trademark of Tegic Communications, Inc.
and is licensed under U.S. Patent 5,818,437/ 5,953,541/
6,011,554.
