Use special characters in phone numbers

You can enter certain special characters as a part of the phone numbers you save to the phone book. Pressing */+ repeatedly cycles through the four special characters available when saving a phone number.

*Sends command strings to the network. Contact your service provider for more information.

+Links a 1-touch dialing location to the number currently being entered.

pCreates a pause that occurs when the phone dials a number. Numbers entered to the right of this special character are automatically sent as touch tones after a 2.5-second pause.

w Causes the phone to wait for you to press Send.

•WRITE WITH PREDICTIVE TEXT

A quick way to enter text is using a highly compressed database (or dictionary) of common words that tries to anticipate the word as you enter it.

You can use predictive text input when you:

•Write or reply to a text message

•Create a note in the calendar

•Enter text while using the minibrowser

Watching predictive text guess a word can be confusing, so you should disregard the screen until all characters have been entered.
