• Text Entry Modes

• Changing the Text Entry Mode

• Entering Text in Alpha (Abc) Mode

• Entering Text in T9 Word Mode

• Entering Upper and Lower Case Letters

• Entering Korean

• Entering Numbers

• Entering Symbols

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

Section 5: Entering Text 47

Text Entry Modes

You can compose text messages using alphabetical characters, symbols, and numbers. Each method of character entry (symbol, number, and so on) is called a text entry mode. There are four text entry modes, as indicated:

• Alpha — Alphabetical text entry mode. Options are:

• ABC — All upper case

• Abc — Initial capital

• abc — All lower case

• Korean — Korean text entry mode. Allows you to enter Korean characters.

• Symbol — Symbol entry mode. Enter symbols into your message or memo by pressing the

corresponding number that appears above it in the display.

• 123 — Number entry. Enter numbers by pressing the corresponding key on the keypad.

• T9Word — Predictive text mode. Press each key only once to enter the letter of the word that

you’re spelling.

Your current mode of text entry [Abc, 123, or T9Word] is indicated in the lower left part of the display when composing a text message.

Changing the Text Entry Mode

1. While composing a text message, press the Right soft key ( ) to toggle the text

input mode through the following options:

• T9Word

• 123

• Symbol

• KOR — Korean

• Abc

Note: Each of the text entry modes are explained in greater detail in ‘Section 13: MESSAGE” on page 136.

Entering Text in Alpha (Abc) Mode

1. Enter characters while in Alpha (Abc) mode by pressing the key with the desired

characters (such as, pressing once for “g”).

2. Press the key repeatedly until the desired character appears in the display (such as,

pressing two times for “h”).

3. Pause briefly and the displayed character is accepted and inserted into your message.

4. Press the key to enter a space.

Entering Text in T9 Word Mode

T9 Word recognizes commonly used words for a sequence of keypresses and inserts the

word into your message. Using T9 mode is much faster than the more traditional method Alpha mode, since T9 requires only one key press per letter of the word that you are spelling.

Note: See ‘Changing the Text Entry Mode” on page 48 for instructions on changing text entry modes.

1. While in T9 Word mode, press each key that corresponds to a desired letter, in

sequence, one time.

For example, if you press the key sequence , and the word “bad” appears on the screen.

2. When you have completed pressing all the keys for the desired word, review the word

displayed in your text.

3. If the word is not the one you meant to enter, press the key to show the next

word that matches the sequence of keys that you pressed.

For example, when you press the key sequence , the word “and” appears on the screen. Suppose the word you want is “cod”. Just press the key until “cod” appears in the display.

Note: If more than one word shares the same numeric sequence (such as, “263” for both “and” and “cod”), T9 Word provides the most commonly used word (such as, “and” for “263”). Press the key to display other words, if any are available.

For practice, enter the work ‘Samsung’ into your message by pressing each of the following keys only once:

S AMS UNG

T9 Word recognizes that the most commonly used word for the sequence of keys you just pressed is “Samsung.”

Tip: To enter words not likely to be in the T9 Word dictionary, such as uncommon abbrev iations or slang, you might want to change the text entry mode from T9 Word to Abc or ABC.

Section 5: Entering Text 49

Entering Upper and Lower Case Letters

In Abc and T9 Word modes, you can select to enter only upper case letters (ABC/T9 WORD), only lower case letters (abc/T9 word), or a mix of the two (Abc/T9 Word).

1. While in T9 Word or Abc mode, repeatedly press the key to change the

capitalization setting.

The left soft key label changes to indicate the current capitalization setting.

For example, if the left soft key label is ABC, and you want to enter the word “ball”, press the key until the left soft key label changes to abc, then enter the word “ball”.

Tip: To enter a capital letter within a word, such as “SimTam”, change the capitalization setting to Abc at the beginning of the word and before entering the “T”. The capitalization setting will automatically change to abc after you enter each upper case letter.

Entering Korean

Enter Korean characters into a text message or memo while in Korean mode (KOR).

Note: See ‘Changing the Text Entry Mode” on page 48 for instructions on changing text entry modes.

䡵 While in KOR mode, press the key containing the corresponding Korean character that

you wish to insert into your message.

Keypad keys produce the following Korean characters. Some keys produce more than one character, depending upon the number of keypresses:
