At many times while you are using your phone, you need to enter text, such as when storing a
name in the Contacts, writing a new message, creating your personal greeting or scheduling events
on your calendar. You are provided with 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 –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 labeled with the required letter once,
twice, three or four times until the letter displays.
Number mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
Symbolic mode
This mode allows you to enter special characters.
