In 2.2 with the latest Voice Search app (on Nexus One) you just swipe the keyboard from left to right to activate the Voice To Text feature.
On the Nexus S with the new keyboard, it SAYS you can "slide your finger across the on-screen keyboard" to activate it. But I've been sliding and swiping everywhere, can't get it to work.
Anyone else? Any ideas? Here's a screenshot.
I was wondering the same thing, not working for me either.

Hi there.
I've noticed that the slide out keyboard doesnt work in some applications, and i have to switch to the onscreen one instead
is there any fix for this?
I would love to get my hands on a good multi touch keyboard WITHOUT the voice key next to the space bar. I always seem to hit it when trying to hit the space bar. I think it should be removed and extend the space bar, or just change it to a comma as that isn't as bad just to back space rather than having to get out of the speech dialog.
I know that the droidx multi tough keyboard port from the nexus one was posted. It is a great keyboard but once again it has the voice key, one thing that is odd is that in the pictures in the n1 MT keyboard post there is no voice key..... just like I like it.
Anyone else with me on rather having it without the voice key?
Is there a way to stop the virtual keyboard from popping up on screen when it is in the keyboard dock, also is there a way to stop the text I am writing into the stock browser from dissapearing under the full screen keyboard when typing?
Thanks
I couldn't find a way, but I got round it by clicking the v on the bottom menu (Next to home) which closes the onscreen keyboard down. Its a bit of a faff tbh. But at least you can get to type on fullscreen. To see what you're typing, just use the arrow keys/the text tag and scroll down.
Has anyone found a solution to this problem? It is so annoying. Everytime i touch the screen to edit, the virtual keyboard pops up. I use the up/down keyboard Key, below the Enter Key on the virtual keyboard to minimize the virtual keyboard. I have cheked the settings and there is no option to disable the virtual keyboard. Any suggestions anyone?
I don't have a dock but use a bluetooth keyboard from time to time. To avoid the same problem I have installed null keyboard from Google Play store which works well for me.
Works brilliantly thanks just what i was after. I've got the note docked and the keyboard hasn't appeared on screen once while typing this. Only thing i had to do was set it to the default keyboard first in the settings under input.
Hi, right off the bat H950 5.11PR rooted.
So, my problem is the gesture used for hiding the keyboard (swipe from top to bottom on keyboard) isn't working, on any keyboard, be it LG, Google or SwiftKey. The gestures section is missing in the keyboard settings, though the gesture for shrinking the keyboard works if you enable the one handed mode. Swiping to type also works.
It isn't a big pain,since I can hide it with the back button, but it's puzzling to say the least, anyone had the same problem?
Other thing, LG apps are just missing, when you go into the update center, there's LG backup and RemoteCall, nothing else. Right after factory reset, they were there, though only accessible if sim card wasn't present. Any solutions?
Hi, do you guys using swift keyboard plus Nova Launcher on ultra? I have an issue, when trying to do right swipe (from corner to center - as going back gesture) insted of going back it starts to print the letter. So i need to hide keyboard and only then swipe back. It rather annoing, never got this issue on other devices...
Using nova and SwiftKey and I don't have this issue

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Same setup, same problem. Didn't noticed till now
Just I used to swype back above keyboard
I'm using Gboard and it does the same thing. I've never tried swiping over the keyboard until now. I don't think it's a bug. I think that's how is meant to be. Otherwise you might be closing your keyboard when your swiping a text message.
SwiftKey user w/o NovaLauncher l - no issues whatsoever
I ve got one plus 8 pro as my previous device amd there swipe back is working over the keyboard.
Closing keyboard each time i need to go back require one additional move, and swipe back above keyboard is not pretty good solution, since i cant do it by thumb, keeping device in one hand, keyboard is occuping almost half of the screen...
I do have the same problem. (using Nova with Gboard), whenever i swipe from right or left, it types a letter.. So i use keyboard hiding toggle in the Navigation bar area, when the keyboard is active.
