Entering Text When using your phone, you will often need to enter text. For example, when storing a name in the phonebook, creating your personal greeting or scheduling events in your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by using your phone's keypad. You are provided with the following text input modes. ● T9 mode: This mode allows you to enter words with only one keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one letter - 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 traditional upper/lower-case character modes. ● Upper/lower-case character modes: These modes allow you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with the required letter once, twice, three or four times until the letter is displayed. ● Number mode: This mode allows you to enter numbers. ● Symbol mode: This mode allows you to enter symbols, such as punctuation marks.
