Entering Upper and Lower Case Letters

The default case is lower case (abc). Enter upper and lower

case alphabet letters by touching the Shift key to toggle the case, before touching the letter key(s).

Touch once to switch from abc to Abc mode.

Touch twice to switch to ABC mode. When ABC mode is enabled, the Shift key background turns blue.

Entering Symbols and Numbers

The number keys are displayed at the top of the keyboard and are always available.

To enter common symbols, touch to switch to symbol mode, then touch the corresponding key.

There are two pages of symbols. Touch to switch to the next page.

Touch and hold a vowel key (A, E, I, O, U, or Y) or the C, N, or S key to open a small window where you can chose an accented vowel or other alternate letter. Slide to the letter until it is highlighted, and release.

Touch and hold the Period key ( . ) to open a small window with a set of common symbols.

Using Predictive Text

By using Predictive text, you can have next-letter prediction and regional error correction, which compensates for touching the wrong keys on the QWERTY keyboard.

Note: Enable Predictive text in Samsung keyboard settings. For more information, refer to “Configuring the Samsung Keyboard” on page 142.

While entering characters, potential word matches display in the Predictive text area above the keyboard.

Touch a word to insert it into your text.
