Section 3: Entering Text
This section outlines how to select the desired text input mode when
entering characters into your phone. It also describes how to use the
T9 predictive text entry system to reduce the number of key strokes
associated with entering text.
Using the Text Input Methods
The Input Method option switches the key entry functions between
Multitap (Alphabetic), T9 Alphabetic (predictive text mode), 123
(Numeric Mode), and Symbols Mode.
Multitap Input Method (abc, Abc, and ABC)
This input method allows you to enter letters by pressing the key
labeled with the letter you want. Press the key once, twice, three, or
four times until the desired letter displays.
The abc method makes all letters of the word lowercase. The Abc
method makes the initial letter uppercase and the remaining letters
lowercase. The ABC method makes all letters of the word uppercase.
T9 Predictive Text Input Method (T9 ab, T9 Ab, and T9 AB)
This input method allows you to enter words with only one keystroke
per letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one letter; for
example, pressing the key can enter J, K, or L. However, the T9
method automatically compares the series of keystrokes you make
with an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most likely word,
thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional Alphabetic
mode.
