Changing The Text Input Mode - Samsung SGH-D806 User Manual

Changing the Text Input Mode

The Text Input option switches the key entry functions from T9 Mode, ABC Mode,
Numeric Mode, and Symbols Mode.
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, pressing
the 5 key can enter J, K, or L. However, the T9 mode automatically
compares the series of keystrokes you make with an internal linguistic
dictionary to determine the most likely 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 it
displays.
Numeric Mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.
Symbols Mode
This mode allows you to enter symbols, such as punctuation marks.
When you are in a field that allows characters to be entered, you will notice the text
input mode indicator on the display.
