Entering text
You can enter alphanumeric characters using
the phone's keypad. The following text input
methods are
available in the phone: T9 mode, Abc mode,
and 123 mode.
Note: Some fields may allow only one text
input mode (e.g. telephone

T9 mode

recognize words you're entering based on the
key sequences you press. Simply press each
number key once for each letter, to enter a
word, and the dictionary will recognize the
word once all the letters are entered.
Abc mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by
pressing the key labeled with the required
letter once, twice, three, or four times, until the
letter is displayed.
In a text field, toggle between Abc and T9 text
entry mode by holding down .
