Selecting a Character Input Mode

Your phone provides convenient ways to enter words, letters, punctuation,

symbols, and numbers whenever you are prompted to enter text (for example,

when adding a Contacts entry or when sending text messages).

To change the character input mode:

1. When you display a screen where you can enter text, press the right

softkey for Options.

2. Select a character input mode:

• T9 (English) to enter characters using predictive T9 Text Input (see

page 19).

• Alpha to enter characters by tapping the keypad (see page 20).

• Symbol to enter symbols (see page 21).

• Number to enter numbers (see page 21).

Entering Characters Using T9 Text Input

T9 Text Input lets you enter text in your phone by pressing keys once per letter. (To

select the mode when entering text, see "Selecting a Character Input Mode" on

page 19.)

T9 Text Input analyzes the letters you enter using an intuitive word database and

creates a suitable word. (The word may change as you type.) If the word you want

does not display after you have entered all the letters, press to scroll through

additional word selections. To accept a word and insert a space, press .

If you make a mistake, press to erase a single character. Press and hold

to delete an entire entry.

To enter text using T9 Text Input:

1. From the text entry screen (for example, a new event in scheduler),

press the right softkey for Options and select T9 (English).

2. Use your keypad to enter the new event. (For example, to enter

“Meeting”, press once, twice, once, once, once,

and once.)
