batteries and chargers. Ask your local Samsung dealer for further details.  
You can use the phone while the battery is charging, but doing so requires additional  
charging time.

Changing the Text Input Mode  
Section 5: Entering Text  
Topics Covered  
Using ABC Mode  
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 system to reduce the number of key strokes associated with entering text.  
Changing the Text Input Mode  
When using your phone, you often need to enter text, such as when storing a name  
in your Phonebook, creating your personal greeting or scheduling events on your  
calendar. You can enter alphanumeric characters by using your phone’s keypad.  
Your phone has the following text input modes:  
T9 mode: this mode allows you to enter words with only one keystroke per letter.  
Each key on the keypad has more than one letter; for example, you press  
enter J, or K. However, the T9 mode automatically compares the series of  
to  
keystrokes you make with an internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most  
likely word, thus requiring fewer keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.  
ABC mode: this mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the key labeled with  
the corresponding letter.  
Number mode: this mode allows you to enter numbers.  
Symbol mode: this mode allows you to enter symbols, such as punctuation  
marks.  
Note: When you are in a field where you can enter characters, the text input mode indicator displays at the  
bottom right of the screen.  
Example: Writing a text message.

The word that you type displays on the screen. The word may change with  
each consecutive key that you press.  
2. Enter the whole word before editing or deleting the keystrokes.  
3. Press the  
key to insert a space and begin entering the next word.  
To enter periods, hyphens, apostrophes, and other special characters press the  
key then press the key that contains the associated symbol.
