Entering Text
When using your phone, you will often need to enter text, such as when storing a name in the Contact list, creating your personal greeting or scheduling events on your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by using your phone’s keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
♦T9 mode: This mode allows you to enter words with only one keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one
letter; for example, when you press the 
key once, J, K or L displays. T9 mode automatically compares your keystrokes with an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the correct word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional Alphabet mode.
♦Alphabet mode: this mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with the letter you want. Press the key once, twice, three or four times until the desired character displays.
♦Number mode: this mode allows you to enter numbers.
♦Symbol mode: this mode allows you to enter various symbols and special characters.
