8. Entering text
Input mode
On many occasions you need to input text in your phone such as: storing
the name in your Address Book, writing a new message, creating a
greeting, or scheduling events on your calendar.
You can select from the following methods (modes) of inputting text in your
phone.
T9 mode
You can input a letter using only one keystroke per letter.
The keypad has more than one letter on it – when you press the [5] key
once, J, K or L may be displayed.
The T9 mode automatically compares your keystrokes with an internal
linguistic dictionary to determine the correct word, thus requiring far fewer
keystrokes than the conventional ABC mode (see below).
ABC mode
In this mode, you input the letter you want by pressing the keypad once to
select the first letter on the key, twice to select the second letter on the key,
three times to select the third letter on the key and so on until the letter you
want appears.
123 mode
You can input numbers in this mode.
Editing area
Symbol mode
You can input special characters like Greek letters, currency units, or a
period mark in this mode.
To change text input mode
When you are in an area where you can input text, the text input mode
indicator is displayed at the top of your screen.
Example: Typing a Text Message.
