Good Evening Paul, the way to turn predictive text off is when in a message, press the talks key twice, it will produce a menu, select dictionary which should be a sub menu, press your joystick once to the write to go in to the menu, and scroll down until you here off. When you here off, press the ok key which is to the left of the joy stick on that phone. If I can be of any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me and I will do my best to assist.

Please could someone tell me how to get my texts back to normal but also for future reference could you tell me how predictive texts are turned on so that I can be mindful of this. I am using the nokia 6600. Regards Paul.
