KEYPADS
Your phone has two on-screen keypads: a standard keypad
with multiple letters per button and a full QWERTY keypad that
is similar to your computer keyboard.
QWERTY keypad
To display the on-screen QWERTY
keypad when creating a message,
rotate the phone horizontally in a
counterclockwise direction.
Standard keypad
Your standard keypad supports four text modes:
n
T9
®
Prediction mode: This mode allows you to enter
words with only one tap per letter and the phone
predicts the word you want. For example, to enter
run, tap the buttons with the letters pqrs, tuv, and
mno.
n
Traditional mode: This mode allows you to enter
letters by tapping the same button until the correct
letter displays. For example, to enter run, tap the
pqrs button three times, the tuv button two times,
and the mno button two times.
n
Number mode: This mode allows you to enter
numbers.
n
Symbol mode: This mode allows you to enter
symbols such as punctuation marks.
Change text mode:
When creating a message, tap the T9
button to turn the T9 Prediction mode
on or off.
