Section 3: Entering Text
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 amount of key strokes associated with entering 
text.
Using the Text Input Methods
The Input Method option switches the key entry functions 
from ABC (Alphabetic), T9 Alphabetic (predictive text mode), 
123 (Numeric Mode), and Symbols Mode.
ABC (Alphabetic) Input Method (abc, Abc, and 
ABC)
Use this input method 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 characters of the word lowercase. 
The Abc method makes the initial character an uppercase 
while the remaining characters are left as lowercase. The 
ABC method makes all characters of the word uppercase.
T9 Predictive Text Input Method (T9Eab, T9EAb, 
and T9EAB)
Use this input method to enter words with only one keystroke 
per letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one letter; 
for example, pressing   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. The T9Eab 
method makes all characters lowercase. The T9EAb method 
makes the initial character an uppercase while the remaining 
characters are left as lowercase. The T9EAB method makes 
all characters uppercase.
Note: The E indicates English. S is displayed for Spanish and Fis displayed for French. 
Numeric
Use this mode to enter numbers.
Symbols
Use this mode to enter symbols, such as punctuation marks.
