Jim in Anchorage Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I just bought a cheap pre-paid phone and can't figure out how select letters on the keypad. The instructions say to hold down the key till you get the one you want,but that doesn't seem to work. If for example I press 4ghi I get g and if I continue to hold I get 4 and it stops. How do I get to h? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajzepp Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I still remember when I asked the very same question about four years ago. Texting was becoming a phenomenon and I had NO fuggin clue how to do it. In fact, I didn't even care about it cause it just seemed purposeless to me. Several years later, I have an iPhone4 and text my ASSSSS off lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Roma in the champs league this year? Yes. They are in the knockout stages. Lost the first leg 3-1 at home against Shakthar Donetsk (yes I know, WHO???) Need to go into Ukraine and win 2-0 to pass.
