Entering Text
Text Entry Overview
Your device's keyboard provides a convenient way to
enter letters, numbers, and symbols whenever you are
prompted to enter text (for example, when adding a
Contacts entry or when using email and text
messaging). Using your device's keyboard is just like
using any standard computer keyboard.
The following keys perform special functions when
entering text:
FN: Allows you to enter the numbers or
characters displayed at the top of the
QWERTY keys. Examples: $, @, #, !.
(Press twice to turn Fn lock on.)
Caps: Changes the text input mode
among Upper/Lower/Mixed case modes,
like the Shift key on a computer keyboard.
(Press twice to turn Caps lock on.)
Sym: Launches an onscreen Symbols
page. Choose from an extensive list of
symbols and other character sets.
Space: Inserts a space.
Enter: Moves the insertion point to the next
line in a message.
Delete: Deletes the previous character,
similar to the backspace key on a
computer keyboard.
Using the Keyboard

Note
During text entry, a list of possible word choices is
displayed. If your desired word is listed, touch the
entry from the list to insert the selected word into
your message.
