On many occasions you need to input text in your phone such as:  storing 

the name in your Address Book, writing a new message, creating a 

greeting, or scheduling events on your calendar. 

You can select from the following methods (modes) of inputting text in your 

phone. 

You can input a letter using only one keystroke per letter.  

The keypad has more than one letter on it – when you press the [ 

 ] 

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 (see below). 

In this mode, you input the letter you want by pressing the keypad once to 

select the first letter on the key, twice to select the second letter on the key, 

three times to select the third letter on the key and so on until the letter you 

want appears. 

You can input numbers in this mode. 

You can input special characters like Greek letters, currency units, or a 

period mark in this mode. 

When you are in an area where you can input text, the text input mode 

indicator is displayed at the bottom of your screen. 

 

Example: Typing a Text Message.
