Topics Covered
• Changing the Text Input Mode
• Using T9 Mode
• Using ABC Mode
• Using Symbols
• Using Numbers
This section outlines how to select the desired text input
mode when entering characters into your phone. This
section also describes how to use the T9 predictive text
entry system to reduce the number of key strokes
associated with entering text.

Section 5
Changing the Text Input Mode
When using your phone, you will often need to enter text,
such as when storing a name in Phonebook, creating your
personal greeting or scheduling events on your calendar.
You can enter alphanumeric characters by using your
phone’s keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• ABC mode: this mode 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 it displays.
• 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; for example, pressing the 5 key can enter J, K, or L.
However, the T9 mode 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 ABC mode.
• Number mode: this mode allows you to enter numbers.
• Symbol mode: this mode allows you to enter symbols, such as
punctuation marks.
When you are in a field that allows characters to be
entered, you will notice the text input mode indicator on
the display.
Example: Writing a text message.

Using the Picture Messaging feature, your phone can
receive and send messages that contain multimedia files,
such as photos, sounds and images you downloaded from
the Internet and voice messages you recorded. This
function is available only if it is supported by your service
