If you're not seeing that SIP icon, perhaps it's the program you're in? Try another to see what I mean.
And FYI, if the ABC / XT9 option is greyed out, it's because you're in an area of a program where it's not allowed. I found that out the hard way when I was testing this for my original post. I launched messaging to test it, and when you're on the TO line, the ABC/XT9 is greyed out. Move to the message body and it is available. Just an FYI.

Thanks for the step by step pointers, I finally figured it out!
