Using T9 Mode
T9 is a predictive text input mode based on a built-in dictionary that allows
you to enter
words by entering a few letters then selecting the word from a pop-
up list
.
To enter a word in T9 mode:
1. Start entering the letters of the word. As you type, the built-in dictionary
matches the letters to commonly used words and a pop-up list of words
appears.
2. Use the up and down navigation keys to highlight the correct word and
press [ ]. If the word is not in the list, continue typing letters until it
appears or you have entered the entire word.
3. Press [ ] to insert a space, then start entering the next word.
To add a new word to the T9 dictionary:
4. If the word you are entering is not in the pop-up list and you want to add
it to the dictionary, select Add Word at the bottom of the list, enter the
word, and press <Add> to add it to the list.
Using Number Mode
Number mode lets you enter numbers into a text message. Press the
keypad keys corresponding to the digits you want to enter.
