Entering text
You can enter alphanumeric characters by using
the phone’s keypad. For example, storing names in
the phonebook, writing a message, creating a
personal greeting.
The following text input methods are available in the
phone.

T9 mode

This mode lets you 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
dictionary to determine the correct word, thus
requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional
ABC mode. This is sometimes known as predictive
text.

ABC mode

This mode lets you enter letters by pressing the key
labelled with the required letter once, twice, three
or four times until the letter is displayed.

123 mode (Number mode)

Type numbers using one keystroke per number.
To change to 123 mode in a text entry field, press
the #key until 123 mode is displayed.

Changing the text input mode

1. When you are in a field that
allows characters to be
entered, you will notice the
text input mode indicator in
the top right corner of the
LCD screen.
2. Change the text input mode
by pressing #. You can
check the current text input mode in the top right
corner of the LCD screen.

Using the T9 mode

The T9 predictive text input mode lets you enter
words easily with a minimum number of key
presses. As you press each key, the phone begins to
display the characters that it thinks you are typing
based on the built-in dictionary.
