Entering Text

Selecting a Character Input Mode

Your phone provides convenient ways to enter words, letters, punctuation, and numbers
whenever you are prompted to enter text (for example, when adding a Contacts entry and when
using Picture Mail and SMS Text Messaging).
To change the character input mode:
1. When you display a screen where you can enter text, press Mode (right softkey).
2. To select a character input mode, highlight it and press MENU/OK.

Entering Characters Using T9 Text Input

T9 Text Input lets you enter text in your phone by pressing keys just once per letter. (To select
the T9 Word mode when entering text, see "Selecting a Character Input Mode" above.)
T9 Text Input analyzes the letters you enter using an intuitive word database and creates a
suitable word. (The word may change as you type.) To accept a word and insert a space, press
Space #.
If you make a mistake, press BACK to erase a single character. Press and hold BACK to delete
an entire entry.

Adding a Word to the T9 Database

If a word you want to enter is not displayed as an option when you are using T9 Text Input, you
can add it to the database .
To add a word to the database:
1. Select the Add Word input mode.
2. Enter the word using Alphabet mode (multi-tap text entry). (See "Entering Characters by
Using Alphabet Mode" on the next page.)
3. Press Save (left softkey). The word will appear as an option the next time you scroll through
options during T9 Text Input.
