Is there a way to permanently disable speech-to-text AND the microphone that replaces the comma (seriously, who the hell thought THAT was a good idea?) on the AOSP keyboard in Jellybean? I can disable it until next boot by deselecting Voice Search as an input method in Settings -> Language and Input, but then it re-enables itself at reboot, and sometimes before.
Any help with this would be appreciated.
Go into keyboard settings, go down to voice input key, and select off

Have you set the english language and and set google now on?
Search for something like "Whats the weather like today" using the search bar. When the results come up in the bottom right corner there is 3 dots. click that and then settings. Then at the top you should see "turn google now on" one its on, go to voice and change language to "English US" only works on this for the "Ok Google" feature.
Thanks guys....mystery solved! That's cool!
I've had my phone for a few days now and all of a sudden the Mic icon in the google keyboard has been replaced by a comma. I have tried everything to fix it. Deleted data/cache for the Keyboard app, disabled/re-enabled the voice icon in settings, etc... Anyone else have this issue? Not having Speech to text help in the keyboard is a big drawback.

Have you enabled "Google Voice Typing" in language and settings?
Sorry, I fixed it. Google Voice Typing was not enabled on the input screen
Mic Icon gone
Same thing is going on with me. I received my new Nexus 5 yesterday. The keyboard mic button was there in gmail. Now it's gone.
"Voice input key" is checked in the Settings > Google Keyboard.

You need to look a few spaces UNDER Google Keyboard. There will be Google Voice Typing. That needs to be checked.

Thanks Senior Member! The option is in the list with the other languages. I hadn't seen it before. That was exactly the issue. Thank you for taking the time to help me out with this.
Mine is enabled but still not showing.

You've enabled it in the Google keyboard settings correct? The Google voice keyboard must be enabled then the setting in the Google keyboard must be enabled

Whenever I swipe up from the home button to open Google now should I be able to just say "OK Google" to activate voice commands?
I ask because that's how it works on my nexus 7 (2012) running 4.3. Is it just a setting I have turned off or is that for nexus devices only?
BTW I don't mean the always listening of the moto x.
Thanks

Works for me. In Google Now, go into settings and change language to English (US). Hot word should now be available.

The old version had "Google" as the hotword, but they changed it to "Ok Google" to get less false positives in an update.

I like the Samsung keyboard but I don't like Samsung voice input. I changed it to google voice input but after a few minutes it reverts back to Samsung voice input . Has any been able to use Samsung keyboard with google voice input successfully?

I am following as I too have the same problem!
I went into keyboard settings (Language and Input) and under 'On-screen keyboard' there is a rocker switch for Sammy and Google voice input. Google on, Sammy off and the Samsung keyboard works. However, if you have been mucking with Bixby settings like me, it hoses up the 'ok google' voice detection when locked. So after testing a few minutes (Google stuck) i returned it back to Sammy (I use Google keyboard anyway). I like Samsungs keyboard, but since G Board added a number row option, I've been happy.
Anywho, is this the way you had changed the google voice to default with Samsung or some other way?

Is that the paid Package Disabler? Can you please link to the play store? Probably worth paying if you can disable all that.
Definitely worth it
Check out "Package Disabler Pro (Samsung)"

Oops, now I see that it does just revert back to Samsung after awhile.

Samething with me, the phone kept reverting to the samsung voice even after I choose google voice.
I did figure this out a few days ago. You have to DISABLE the Samsung Voice in the Apps.
Settings, Apps, AppManager, Samsung Voice Input, DISABLE
Booya!!

Ditto. I've had the same issue and followed the same steps before checking in here.
I prefer the Samsung keyboard by quite a bit because I have found that, at least historically, its Swype and its prediction is substantially better than anyone else’s. Similarly Google’s voice recognition, at least for me, has been hugely better than everyone else’s. The Samsung keyboard/Google voice typing combo is one reason why I’ve chosen Samsung devices over everyone else. The other was systemless root, which Samsung has now chunked on our S8/S8+ devices -- and that goes to the follow-up problem, I can’t disable the Samsung voice input.
BTW - “Just use Google keyboard instead,” is not an answer at all. If it were, the OP, 3dmurphybeds, and I would not be on here posting. For all the other posts, I’m grateful for the suggestions.

I’m not sure if I just haven’t had sufficient coffee today, but the option to disable Samsung voice input is greyed out, so I can’t disable it.
BTW - I was excited about djxn40’s suggestion about Package Disabler (both for this issue and in general). But based on the most recent reviews, all of which look like they're very fresh and much after the OP, it looks like Samsung broke the application (I’m guessing some time in the past month).
Some have suggested BK Package Disabler. But I’m not sure that Samsung didn’t break it too. If anyone can confirm that it (or some other application) works on the unrooted US version of the S8/S8+ running the most recent OTA (G955USQU1AQGL), that would be awesome.

Does anyone know why there is no predictive text in any of the Google apps (including Play store/music/etc, Chrome, etc.)? Samsung is the only keyboard installed (other than voice typing), yet the OSK clearly is NOT Samsung (layout is different, etc.). It seems that Google and Samsung are spending so much time lifting their legs on each other that things that used to be selling points are so broken that it makes one want to run screaming...
It seems there are 2 Samsung Voice input: One for Bixby and one for keyboard (that one has a microphone symbol).
At first it was only showing the Bixby one and I could not disable it. Then I selected Samsung Voice for the keyboard, and it showed on the app list. I was able to disable it.
After a reset, Samsung Voice for keyboard even does not show in the voice input selection list and Google Voice is set per default.
Thanks to dsa44!
I just chatted with Samsung they took control of my phone through Samsung tutor and he downloaded the Google keyboard and in there you can change the voice to Google while keeping Samsung keyboard
Fixed (Samsung Galaxy edge s9)
Open settings > general management > language and input > on screen keyboard > manage keyboards > turn OFF Samsung voice input FIXED
I too dislike Bixby! She's um retarded! Lol
This settings change I explained above allows google voice no longer allowing Bixby!

Can I uninstall gboard after I make this change? I got it to work! I turned off Samsung voice input under language settings on default keyboard says manage keyboards and you turn Samsung voice input keyboard off. Then I downloaded gboard which enabled the Google voice input. I also kept Google voice input as the keyboard on under manage keyboards. And now when I push the voice button it uses Google! In the Samsung keyboard. However I don't want to keep keyboard on my phone because it takes up memory battery and Storage. I wonder if there's a way to put it to sleep well Google voice button still work? Or maybe if I uninstall it will it still work?
