Section 5: Entering Text

This section outlines how to select the desired text input mode
when entering characters into your phone. This section also
describes how to use the T9 predictive text entry system to
reduce the amount of key strokes associated with entering text.

Changing the Text Input Mode

The Text Input option switches the key entry functions from T9
Mode, ABC Mode, Numeric Mode, and Symbols Mode.

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, the 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.

ABC 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.

Numeric Mode

This mode allows you to enter numbers.

Symbols Mode

This mode allows you to enter symbols, such as

punctuation marks.

When you are in a field that allows characters to be entered, you
will notice the text input mode indicator on the display.
