Hi @TIBERIUS1, let me see if I can help out here!

As @uliwooly mentioned, enabling or disabling predicted text is done using the menus in Swiftkey. Find and tap Settings > System > Language & input > On-screen keyboard > Swiftkey keyboard > Typing > Typing & autocorrect > Disable the function named Autocorrect using the slider next to the text.

I hope that helped!

It didn't work! 🤔

[Martin1]

Thank you @TIBERIUS1 for your quick reply! 

In that case, try going to Settings > System > Language & input > Advanced > Spell checker > Disable.

Let me know how it goes!

job done and much appreciated! 

[Martin1]

No worries, @TIBERIUS1! I am glad that i could help! 

Let me know if anything else comes up!

Sorry for pestering you again but when I send a text the phone says "sent" but the recipient never gets the message. Also I don't have a "message centre" number. AND (there's more!) I'm stuck with setting the time before a missed call gets diverted to the relevant phone thingy.

No worries, @TIBERIUS1, you are not pestering at all! 

As messaging center number is supposed to be provided from the SIM card, there is way to set or change the messaging center number. My suggestion is to get in contact with your service provider in order to have your SIM card replaced.

As for the other thing you mentioned, I am not really sure on what you mean, could you please elaborate?

[TIBERIUS1]

I meant "call divert". On my last phone I could set the phone for how long the phone would ring before it was diverted to thing where the caller could leave a voice message.
