Entering Text

Various text entry methods make it easy for you to enter names, 

numbers, and text messages on your phone.

You can enter all characters (letters, numbers, and symbols) 

using the standard tap method. Other text modes let you easily 

enter numbers and symbols, or insert text already stored on your 

phone. Finally, a predictive text mode lets you enter text 

messages with a minimum of keypresses.

Choosing a Text Mode

To activate a text mode, press 

M

 from any text entry screen 

and select the text mode from the 

Entry Method

 menu:

iTAP

Let the phone predict each word as you enter it, 

then choose the word from a list (see  Predictive 

Text Entry with iTAP  Software  on page 56).

Tap Method

  Enter characters one at a time by pressing the 

key for the letter, number, or symbol (see  Tap 

Method  on page 52). This is the standard mode 

for entering text on your phone.

Numeric

Enter only the number that appears on each key.

Symbol

Enter symbols only (see  Symbol Mode  on 

page 55).

Browse

Browse through your phonebook and recent 

calls lists to select a name or number to enter.

Note: The text mode you select remains active until you change 

it by selecting another mode.
