Section 4: Entering Text; Using The Qwerty Keyboard - Samsung SGH-T289 User Manual

Section 4: Entering Text

This section describes how to select the desired text input
method when entering characters into your phone.
Your phone also provides several on-screen keypad text
entry options to make the task of text entry that much easier.

Using the QWERTY Keyboard

This phone also offers the convenience of a slideout QWERTY
keyboard. Using the QWERTY keyboard, you can type letters,
numbers, punctuation, and other special characters into text
entry fields or other applications simpler and faster than
using the telephone keypad.
The following keys perform special functions when
entering text:
1. Emoticon () displays a list of emoticons to insert into
messages. To use emoticons, touch Alt
2. Alt allows you to use numbers and other characters
displayed at the top of the QWERTY keys.
Examples: 1, 2, 3, $, @, #, ! (etc.)
3. Sym displays pages of Symbols. Choose from an
extensive list of symbols and other character sets.
