Section 4: Entering Text

This section describes how to select the desired text input
method when entering characters into your phone. This
section also describes the predictive text entry system that
reduces the amount of key strokes associated with entering
text.
Your phone comes equipped with an orientation detector that
can tell if the phone is being held in an upright (Portrait) or
sideways (Landscape) orientation. This is useful when
entering text.

Text Input Methods

There are two text input methods available:
•
Samsung keyboard (default): Samsung's on-screen
QWERTY keypad that can be used in both portrait and
landscape orientation.
•
Google Voice typing: allows you to enter text by speaking.
To change the input method, see "Keyboards and Input
Methods" on page 131.
Entering Text Using the Samsung
Keyboard
From a screen where you can enter text, rotate your phone
counterclockwise to a Landscape orientation. The on-screen
QWERTY keypad will display.
