Entering letters
You can enter letters, for example, when you add
names to the Phonebook, write text messages or
enter WAP addresses.
Apart from the way you normally enter letters in
your phone, using multitap text input, you can use
™
T9 Text Input for entering text messages and
email, for example, if the input language you select
™
supports this. T9 Text Input is a predictive input
method and is a quicker way to write texts. See "T9
Text Input" on page 15.
Input languages
Before you start entering letters, you need to select
the input languages that you want to use when
writing.
To select input languages
1. Scroll to Settings, Language, Input.
2. Scroll to the language that you want to use for
entering letters and check each language you want.
3. Press to exit the menu.
Ok
When writing, you can switch to one of your
selected input languages by pressing
selecting Language. See "The list of options" on
page 16.
