3. Text entry

You can use two methods for entering text and numbers: standard mode and predictive text mode. Select Clear to backspace the cursor and delete a character. Select and hold Clear to backspace continuously and delete characters.

■Standard mode

Standard mode is the only way to enter text into the contacts list and to rename caller groups.

Text (Abc)

•Press a key once to insert the first letter on the key, twice for the second letter, etc. If you pause briefly, the last letter in the display is accepted and your device awaits the next entry.

•Press 0 to enter a space, thereby accepting a completed word.

•Press 1 to insert a period into your message.

•Press * to display a complete list of special characters.

•Press and hold # to bring up the Editor settings (Number mode, Prediction on or Prediction off).

Numbers (123)

To switch to 123 mode from Abc mode, press and hold # at any message entry screen to bring up the Editor settings.

Select Number mode, and the device returns to the message entry screen and switches the Abc icon in the upper left corner of the display to the 123 icon (or back).

Punctuation and special characters

While at any text entry screen, press * to display special characters (press and hold * if predictive text is on). Press * again to cycle through all available characters. Scroll to navigate through the list of special characters. With a character highlighted, select Use to insert the character into your message.

■Predictive text mode

Much faster than the standard mode method, predictive text input enables you to write messages quickly using your keypad and the built-in dictionary. In predictive text mode, your phone predicts the words as you enter them.
