Signal strength
You can check the strength of your signal by the signal indicator
(
) on the LCD screen of your phone. Signal strength can vary,
particularly inside buildings. Moving near to a window may improve
reception.
Entering text
You can enter alphanumeric characters by using the phone's
keypad. For example, storing names in the Phonebook, writing a
message, creating a personal greeting or scheduling events in the
calendar all require entering text.
The following text input methods are available in the phone.
T9 mode
This mode lets you enter words with only one keystroke per
letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one letter. The
T9 mode automatically compares your keystrokes with an
internal dictionary to determine the correct word, thus requiring
far fewer keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode. This is
sometimes known as predictive text.
ABC mode
This mode lets you enter letters by pressing the key labelled
with the required letter once, twice, three or four times until the
letter is displayed.
123 mode (Number mode)
Type numbers using one keystroke per number. To change to
123 mode in a text entry field, press the # key until 123
mode is displayed.
