voice type - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I know I am being stupid but I cant seem to find the voice type button on my stock keyboard,
I have gone into the language and keyboard settings but cant seem to find a setting for gettingg voice type up and running
I have disabled some apps so wonder if that could be it but I can see nothing obvious that's disabled
I know some one will just say do a,b and then c and it will work and I will feel dumb ( but at least it will work)
thanks in advance

Should be a long press on the period key. Looking at mine right now...lol

[Q] Swype on gingerbread JVO

Since updating my XEU handset to gingerbread, the Swype keyboard has gained a voice button next to the full stop. Keep hitting this and it's annoying. Likewise a region button next to the SYM. How can I get rid of these again?

For the first button I mean the voicy button. I think if you disable the voice to text service it wont do anything anymore. The service is voice search. Test it with tit backup freeze. The other button no idea .Maybe get some theme ?
Hm. I've looked all around the voice settings, and I can't find anything to get rid of the microphone button. Nor the language button either. Perhaps I'll get used to it, but it's cramped down there on the bottom row.

Now I think you dont have root Anyway if you do read further.
I guess you didnt understand me there. So do this. Install titanium backup (its an app on the market) Then run the app. In the app search for voice search, click on it in and choose freeze and reboot. Then try to click the mic in swype.
Ah. I had root, and TiBu, but I haven't re-rooted since gingerbread. It's more complicated than super one click!
So really, there's no way to remove the buttons then? Only make them not respond. I don't like the small space key now.
Guess I'll have to get used to it

Well I could swear that in some keyboards without the voice to text service that button vanished . Not sure which version of rom or what keyboard it was. But ask just some themer to help you with it. or someone might respond with proper advice

SwiftKey

How does everyone use SwiftKey?
What works the best for a past blackberry user?

What do you mean, HOW do we use SwiftKey? It's a keyboard. I push buttons on the screen to make letters appear. Don't know of any other way to use it aside from speech to text.
Sent from my Inspire 4G
What I meant was what mode works better? The precise or rapid?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I896 using XDA App
I like rapid. Never tried precise to be honest. I knew I wanted something that I can tap away fast with and it auto correct, even when I miss alot.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Rapid works better for me.
Sorry for the lame post, need a few more to get to 10.
I use precise, but that's because I've used touch keyboards for a couple of years before my captivate and got used to double tapping space for period.

I could be wrong but wouldn't it be under system/app?
thats where i was looking but i can't find the name of it
Yeah, see what you mean. All I could find was voice dialer but not the actual keyboard.
well i guess its there somewhere. i will keep digging and post back if i find it before anyone else does thanks for helping

Also, realize you want the google keyboard but swype also offers a beta that has a voice option. Just google swype beta and it will pop up.
Swype is a decent app but I ended up going back to the stock keyboard as it is more functional..some prefer swype I guess..

I have bigger fingers so it makes it hard for me to tap away at the keyboard. I am much faster swyping.
I have big hands also and the dang space bar is the most frustrating thing on the keyboard...always hitting the period instead of space bar...it needs to be wider..

I agree. The keyboard on the Inspire was perfect...and it was .2 inches smaller of a screen and included a directional arrows.
And to answer the original question most of what the OP is asking about I would think would be in HTC_IME.apk

Not what he was asking. To OP, I haven't. I don't think you can as it's a feature present on stock Android as well.
Thanks for the input guys. I'll keep my eyes peeled in case someone comes up with a mod for it.

Any idea why the phone keypad input method insists on spaces?

What I mean is when I try to select individual letters with the phone keypad in XT9 mode, it always puts a space between every letter. Like I'm the 3rd, so I use III a lot, but when I hit i and select it from the bar above the keypad, then the next time I hit i there's automatically a space, and I can't seem to make it stop doing it.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Any ideas at all? ^^;
Turn off auto corrrect?
Oddly, I can't seem to find that setting.
Sent from my 831C using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If you are using the stock keyboard, I just tried it in XT9 because for the life of me I can't figure out why anyone would still be using that keypad. And no spaces here. I hold down the GHI select I and do it 2 more times, no spaces.
I just can't figure it out. I think I had a problem like this with my M7, and I think someone helped me fix it, but I don't remember how. It really seems like there's settings that aren't being shown that should fix it.
Any chance there'd be a way to uncover more settings somehow?

Any more ideas? It's so annoying for this to be acting like this.

Sounds like when you choose the "i" in the upper bar, the phone thinks you're wanting it to just be an I and it automatically adds the space in preparation of the next word....what happens if you just type "iii"? It should realistically let you type that and then you can choose that combo to save in your phones dictionary. Hope that makes sense and helps you out...let me know
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app
I have the III saved so it does just put it in without spaces. It's any other time I have to add any word that bothers me. It shouldn't force a space when I go to spell some things by c h o o s i n g individual letters from the top bar. I've never had any other version of sense do that before, and it really feels like I'm missing a layer of settings for text input somewhere. It's just bothersome that I wouldn't be able to turn something like that on and off.
I've tried turning on and off the other settings in that field, and it didn't stop the spaces from auto adding. I actually have to add a space then backspace between every letter I need to individually choose.
Driving me batty, it is. lol
Sent from my HTC M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app.
I just tried to recreate what you're describing, I see how the space thing comes into play when choosing individual letters now...then I turned off word prediction and then it stopped adding a space but it also got rid of the top row with words/letters your currently typing...may I ask why you'd be typing individual letters and choosing them instead of just typing the word til it's completed? That's the only area I'm still confused about.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app
Sometimes there's things I type that aren't in the dictionary or my phone doesn't want to type "on" or "go" or other two letter words sometimes for no reason, then I have to type them with individual letters. The things that aren't in the dictionary are things I don't typically use on a regular enough basis to add, or when I'm typing capcha codes and the like.
I think it bothers me more that I can't simply make it not do it without disabling something I frequently use. I could've swore that there was another layer of settings that was specifically for the XT9 keyboard.

Did you make sure English is the default language for the keyboard?...I had an issue where I would be typing and some common words kept getting switched to weird/foreign words, come to find out somehow my language got switched to Spanish I think it was. Just another idea...I'm running out of other ideas, sorry
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app
It is on English. I did find I settling in Swype for auto spacing, but it didn't do anything for me either. ; ;
