Motorola H62XAH6RR1AN manual Entering Text, Using Alpha Mode, Using Word Mode

Entering Text

You can enter text into your handset using the traditional method of pressing a key several times for each character, or by pressing a key once for each letter while words likely to be the one you want are chosen from a database. You can also enter symbols and numbers into a text field.

Note: Entering text may work differently in the browser.

In screens that require you to enter text, you see the following icons near the top right corner. These icons tell you which text input mode you are using:

lAlpha — Press a key several times for each character.

jWord — Press a key once for each letter while words likely to be the one you want are chosen from a database.

iSymbols — Enter punctuation and other symbols.

kNumeric — Enter numbers.

When you access a screen that requires you to enter text, you start in Alpha mode.

To choose a text input mode:

1At a screen that requires you to enter text, press m.

2A checkmark appears next to the current text input mode. Scroll to the text input mode you want to use.

3Press A under Select.

Using Alpha Mode

•Press any key on the keypad to enter the letters,

numbers, and symbols on that key. For example, to enter the letter Y, press 9 three times.

•Type a letter then scroll up to make that letter uppercase, or type a letter then scroll down to make that letter lowercase.

•See “Special Function Keys” on page 66 for more information on adding spaces, capitalization, and punctuation.

Using Word Mode

In Word mode, T9 Text Input analyzes the letters on the keypad button you press and arranges them to create words. As you type, T9 Text Input matches your keystrokes to words in its database and displays the most commonly used matching word. You can add you own words to this database.
