Manner mode (Quick)

holding down the key after opening the phone.
Signal strength
You can check the strength of your signal by the signal
indicator ( ) on the LCD screen of your phone.
Signal strength can vary, particularly inside buildings.
Moving near to a window may improve reception.
Entering text
You can enter alphanumeric characters by using the
phone's keypad. For example, storing names in the
phonebook, writing a message, creating a personal
greeting.
The following text input methods are available in the
phone.
T9 mode
This mode lets you enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has
more than one letter. The T9 mode automatically
compares your keystrokes with an internal
dictionary to determine the correct word, thus
requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional
ABC mode. This is sometimes known as predictive
text.
ABC mode
This mode lets you enter letters by pressing the
key labelled with the required letter once, twice,
three or four times until the letter is displayed.
123 mode (Number mode)
Type numbers using one keystroke per number.
To change to 123 mode in a text entry field,
press the key until 123 mode is displayed.
