Text entry

You can use two methods for entering text and numbers:
Standard mode is the only way to enter text into such things as the contacts
list, calendar notes, and to rename caller groups.
Predictive text input is a quick and easy method for writing messages, creating
a calendar note, or making a to-do list.
