Use the D-Pad or trackball to navigate through the list: left-right to flip
through the Favorites, Recent, alphabet, and symbol sets; up-down to select
specific characters. Press the trackball to insert a highlighted character.
Here are some useful tips when using the Special Character selector:
• With the selector open, you can show the same characters capitalized by
pressing SHIFT + the character (like “a”). Toggle back to lowercase by
pressing the letter again.
• To see all special characters, select All (at the bottom of the selector) or
use the menu shortcut MENU + A, and the grid expands.
• There are numbers next to each character that are shortcuts. To type a
specific character using the shortcut, press SYM + the number for that
character.
• To open a list of the international characters, select ALL, find the
character you want to use in the list, and select it. It is now added to the
list of favorite characters and has a number associated with it. In the
future, you can type this character by entering SYM + the number. Please
note, as you add favorite characters, the number next to the characters
will change.
• To type a character using its Unicode value (highlight a selection in the
selector for two seconds to see the Unicode), press SYM + SPACE (press
the keys simultaneously), then type the four-character Unicode value.
