Entering Characters Using T9 Text Input
T9 Text Input lets you enter text in your PCS Phone by pressing keys just
once per letter. (To select the T9 Wordmode when entering text, see
"Selecting a Character Input Mode" on page 62.)
T9 Text Input analyzes the letters you enter using an intuitive word
database and creates a suitable word. (The word may change as you type.)
If the word you want does not display after you have entered all the letters,
press to scroll through additional word selections. To accept a word
and insert a space, press .
If you make a mistake, press to erase a single character. Press and
hold to delete an entire entry.
Adding a Word to the T9 Database
If a word you want to enter does not display as an option when you are
using T9 Text Input, you can add it to the database.
To add a word to the T9 Text Input database:
1. Select the Abccharacter input mode. (See “Selecting a Character
Input Mode” on page 62.)
2. Enter the word using multi-tap text entry. (See “Entering Characters
by Tapping the Keypad” on page 64.) The word will appear as an
option the next time you scroll through options during T9 Text Input.
