Entering Text

At many times when using your phone, you will
need to enter text, such as when storing a name
in Phonebook, creating your personal greeting, or
scheduling events on your calendar. You can enter
alphanumeric characters into your phone using
your phone's keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• T9(English) 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
or L. However, 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.
• Symbol mode: This mode allows you to enter
various symbols and special characters.
• Number mode: This mode allows you to enter
numbers.
Note: T9 mode supplies an appropriate language
database as your language setting menu
(MENU 8-8-5).
