Hi, I just got my phone through xiaomidevices.com. It came with the english pack and google play store installed. The only option I can't get to work is the speech to text feature. The microphone does not appear in the messaging or any other app except the google search bar. I have tried all the settings, installed all the google features, activated all the appropriate permissions but nothing. Is it unavailable with MIUI8? Thanks for any help.

Settings -> additional settings -> language & input -> current keyboard -> choose keyboards -> enable google voice typing (?)
Same here
I am having the same issue. I like the Kika keyboard that came on the Mi Mix, but when you click on voice typing it says it is forbidden. Then in the Gboard settings there is no option for voice typing at all. I've gone to settings and language input and it does not show Google voice to text or as a keyboard option. There is a text to speech option father down the settings page but that has also has no option to enable the option even after downloading the correct language.
I am rooted, with unlocked bootloader running the EU ROM.

I too had the same issue until recently. I downloaded the swift keyboard app from the Google Play Store. When I opened the app it brought me to a new keyboard selection page that I had never before seen. On this page was the option to click Google Voice typing keyboard and since then I have been able to have Google Voice texting in any keyboard app

Thorin78's advice was my solution. I can't believe I missed it. If you already have gboard installed and those steps dont work I might try reloading the ROM since your issue doesnt seem common with it.
Solution to no text to speech Xiaomi
Download Good Assistant and Google Voice Search from the Play Store and all of your problems will be solved

Is anyone else missing the (Google) Voice Search icon after the update? It's nowhere on my homescreen or in the app drawer.
The annoying thing is that when I go to Google Play, it says that it's installed on my device. I was thinking about uninstalling it and then re-installing, but Google Play doesn't give me the 'Uninstall' option.
Thanks for your time, guys.
Also missing voice search icon
I am having the same problem. When I go to Google Play Store, it says I have Google Voice Search installed, but I cannot find the icon anywhere on my phone. Is this intentional by Google? If not, how do I get this icon back to access Voice Search?
Try changing you're keyboard

Hi,
coming from the MotoX to the Z3 compact, I am missing the Voice Input. On the MotoX, I enabled "Google Voice Input" in the Keyboard settings. A little microphone key apeared on the Google Keyboard to start voice typing. On the Z3c, I cannot find Google Voice Input, and I cannot find it in the Play Store. Is there any possibility to download Google Voice Input to the Z3c, or is there any other app that works the same way? I don't wanna loose the Google Keyboard, because I like it more than any other keboard....
Thanks!
It's basically the same way on the Z3C.
Goto "Settings" -> "Language & Input" and you should see three (3) keyboards:
1.) Chinese
2.) Xperia
3.) Goggle Voiceinput
Obviously, #3 has to be ticked/enabled, else it won't work. After that, tap on the settings symbol (this screwdriver&wrench icon) right to #2 (the Xperia keyboard), scroll down and tick checkbox "Key for Google Voice Typing". That gets you the little microphone key.
Yepp, that were my thoughts, though, but i dont have Google voice input in that list on my z3c.

Install Google Keyboard, set it as default keyboard, problem solved.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.inputmethod.latin&hl=en
As mentioned in first post, I use Google Keyboard as default.
Nevertheless, I found the issue. It seems like Google Voice Input is part of Google Search, what was disabled by me to check the influence on the battery. With Google Search enabled, I can enable Google Voice Input.
the last google app update on September 8 will not let me text search. it changed the default search to voice in language and inputs and won't let me uncheck the box. it also apparently removed the box to enable google keyboard that was located in the same menu.
fixed- installed swiftkey, uninstalled google keyboard- able to both text and voice input again.
Hi guys,
I'm trying to set up Google voice typing. I want to enable the "Say OK Google any time" option.
Every time I want to enable this option, on the set up menu, it says that there is trouble with the microphone (see the screenshots).
Any ideas why is this happening?
solved by installing the beta version of google apps and google play services
Current P10 firmware version vtr-l09 8.0.0.323 (654)
Sometime yesterday my ok google detection stopped working. I can side swipe to the left to get the google search page and manually start a search by pressing the mic key. I have gone through all my settings cleared cache, removed all data on the google app, text to speach (google) google play services, google play, with no success. When i reset the google assistant app and say ok google the app starts its setup proceedure asking questions for voice match etc after all done it asks for my pin to allow changes then closes. After this i can say ok google forever with no responce, again still being able to manually tap the mic to start a manual search that is spoken by me. access with voice match is greyed out as well as unlock with voice match. are others having this problem? Anyone have a solution? Thanks
Got the same problem. I have realised that when i've been driving a car today and tried to make a call. OK Google is not working anymore ;-(
Tried a few things, found that when I clear the cache, delete data on the Google app then uninstalled updates (reverting to previous version of the Google app) resolved the issue. I also disabled auto update for the Google app from the play store to stop it from re occurring. Huawei and Google can figure out the fix but this works for now
