8. Entering Text
Input Mode
On many occasions you need to input text while you are using your
phone, (e.g., storing a name in the Contacts, writing a new message,
creating your greeting or scheduling events on your calendar).
The available text input modes included.
T9 mode
You can input a letter using only one keystroke per letter.
The keypad has more than one letter on it – when you press the [5]
key once, J, K or L may be displayed.
The T9 mode automatically compares your keystrokes with an
internal linguistic dictionary to determine the correct word, thus
requiring far fewer keystrokes than the conventional ABC mode.
ABC mode
In this mode, you can input the letter you want by pressing the
keypad once, twice, three or four times until the target letter appears.
123 mode
You can input a number in this mode.
Symbol mode
You can input the special characters like Greek letters, currency units,
or a period mark in this mode.
To change text input mode
When you are in the area where you can input the text, the text input
mode indicator will be displayed at the bottom of the LCD.
Example: Entering a memo.
To switch to other text input modes:
1. Press the right Soft key indicating the current text input mode.
Toggle to the mode you want to use by pressing the [
] right Soft
key. The ‘Language select’ option allows you to change the text
input language.
The number of remaining characters you can
enter.
