Punctuation and special characters

While at any text entry screen, press * to display special characters (press and hold * if predictive text is on). Press * again to cycle through all available characters. Scroll to navigate through the list of special characters. Once a character is highlighted, select Use to insert the character into your message.

■Predictive text mode

Predictive text input allows you to write messages quickly using your keypad and the built-in dictionary. It is much faster than the standard mode method, because for each letter, you only press the corresponding key on your keypad once.

Activate and deactivate

At any text entry screen, select and hold Options to turn predictive text on or off depending on previous mode; or, select Options > Dictionary on or Dictionary off. Press # twice to change from predictive text mode to standard mode and back.

Enter text
