Changing The Text Input Mode; Using The T9 Mode - LG Vodafone KU380 User Manual

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. If you press
for a long time, you can activate or
cancel T9 mode.
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.

Using the T9 Mode

The T9 predictive text input mode
key allows you to enter words easily with a
minimum number of key presses. As you
press each key, the handset begins to
display the characters that it thinks you
are typing based on a built-in
dictionary. As new letters are added, the
word changes to reflect the most likely
candidate from the dictionary.
