Entering Text

Various text entry methods make it easy for you to enter names,

numbers, email addresses, and text messages on your phone.

You can enter all characters (letters, numbers, and symbols)

using the standard tap method. Other text modes let you easily

enter numbers or insert text already stored on your phone.

Finally, a predictive text mode lets you enter text messages with

a minimum of keypresses.

Choosing a Text Mode

To activate a text mode, press M from any text entry screen

and select the text mode from the Entry Method menu:

Note: The text mode you select remains active until you change

it by selecting another mode.

iTAP Let the phone predict each word as you enter it,

then choose the word from a list (see “Predictive

Text Entry with iTAP™ Software” on page 40).

Tap Method Enter characters one at a time by pressing the

key for the letter, number, or symbol (see “Tap

Method” on page 39). This is the standard

mode for entering text on your phone.

Numeric Enter only the number that appears on each key.

Browse Browse through your phonebook and recent

calls lists to select a name or number to enter.
