Entering Text
You can enter alphanumeric characters by
using the phone’s keypad. For example,
storing names in the Address Book, writing
a message, creating scheduling events in
the calendar all require entering text. The
following text input methods are available
in the phone.
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. 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 is displayed.
123 Mode (Numbers Mode)
Type numbers using one keystroke per
number. To change to 123 mode in a text
entry field, press key until 123 mode
is displayed.
Note
vSome fields may allow only one
text input mode (e.g. telephone
number in address book fields).
