Changing the text input mode
When you are in a field that allows characters to
be entered, you will notice the text input mode
indicator on the display.
Using T9 English mode
T9 is a predictive text input mode that allows you
to key in any character using single keystrokes.
This text input mode is based on a built-in
dictionary.
To enter a word in T9 English mode:
1. Press the keys on the phone just once per
desired letter. For example, to enter "hello",
press 4,3 5,5 and 6 key.
2. The word that you are typing appears on the
display. It may change with each key that you
press.
3. Type to the end of the word before editing or
deleting any keystrokes.
4. Insert a space between each word by
pressing the # key.
If the word doesn't display correctly, press the
0 key repeatedly to display alternative word
choices for the keys that you have pressed.
Example: Both "of" and "me" use 6 and 3 key.
The phone displays the most
commonly used choice first.
