Entering text

At many times when using your phone, you will need to enter text, such as when storing a name in Contacts, creating your personal greeting, or scheduling events on your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters into your phone using your phone’s keypad.

Your phone has the following text input modes:

T9(English) 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 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.

Alphabet mode: This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with the letter you want. Press the key once, twice, three or four times until it displays.

Symbol mode: This mode allows you to enter various symbols and punctuation marks.

Number mode: This mode allows you to enter numbers.

Note: The T9 mode supplies an appropriate language database as your language setting menu (Menu 9-5-5).
