Entering Text

Various text entry methods make it easy for you to enter names, numbers, 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 and symbols, 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 Mfrom any text entry screen and select the text mode from the Entry Method menu:

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 65).

Tap Method

Enter characters one at a time by pressing the

 

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

 

Method” on page 61). This is the standard mode

 

for entering text on your phone.

Numeric

Enter only the number that appears on each key.

Symbol

Enter symbols only (see “Symbol Mode” on

 

page 64).

Browse

Browse through your phonebook and recent

 

calls lists to select a name or number to enter.

Note: The text mode you select remains active until you change it by selecting another mode.
