Entering Text
Your PCS Phone makes it easy to enter words, letters,
punctuation, and numbers whenever you need to enter text
(for example, when entering a Phone Book entry or when
using the phone’s messaging features). They are:
ⅷ
T9Word: Allows you to enter text using a predictive text
entering system that reduces the amount of keys that need
to be pressed while entering a word.
ⅷ
Abc: Allows you to cycle through the alpha characters
associated with the letters on the keypad.
ⅷ
123: Allows you to enter numbers by pressing the
corresponding number on the keypad.
ⅷ
Symbols: Allows you to enter symbols using the keypad.
ⅷ
Smileys: Allows you to enter emoticons with your text
message.
ⅷ
Canned Messages: Saves time by allowing you to enter
pre-programmed messages.
To enter text on your PCS Phone:
1. Display a screen that allows for text entry. (For example,
saving a new contact name and phone number.
)
2. Using the keypad to enter text, press the numbered keys
repeatedly until the desired letter appears. (For example,
to type “Bill,”
press twice, three times,
three times, and three times again.)
After a character is entered, the cursor automatically
advances to the next space after two seconds or when you
enter a character on a different key. If you make a mistake
while entering text, press to erase one letter at a time,
or press and hold to erase the entire entry.
