Entering Text

This section describes how to select the desired text input
method when entering characters into your phone. This
Settings section also describes the predictive text entry system that
reduces the amount of key strokes associated with
entering text.
Your phone comes equipped with an orientation detector that
can tell if the phone is being held in an upright (Portrait) or
sideways (Landscape) orientation. This is useful when
entering text.
Text Input Methods
There are three text input methods available:
•
Samsung keyboard (default): Samsung's onscreen QWERTY
keyboard that can be used in both portrait and landscape
orientation.
•
Swype: A new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead
of touching each key, use your finger to trace over each
letter of a word.
•
Google Voice typing: Allows you to enter text by speaking.
To change the input method, see "Keyboards and Input
Methods" on page 152.
