press and hold on home screen, and select settings, and then turn switch to 'off', if you just want to turn off the 'Ok Google' feature, go to Voice from the same menu, and change language from US English, to UK or other preferred language.

German voice input?

Does anyone know how to use the german voice input with the moded htc keyboard? In the settings I turned on the dev server that says it has German support, I turned on the hack so that the mic icon is there on a german keyboard, but no matter what I do it listens for English words. Any ideas?
EDIT: I should add that when it press the mic button, it shows a little thing that says ENG and DEU on it with ENG highlighted, but I can't make it change, and if i press and hold the button i just go to settings
In settings of the keyboard (press and hold mic) Check use experimental server or something like that.
This not working 24/7
Ya, my first post said I did that already

[Q] Google Now - UK

Ok so I'm probably being dense and missing something obvious but I have no Google Now on my N5. I've got the 'Ok Google' Voice activation working by selecting English US in the voice search settings. But I cannot swipe left on the home screen and if I click the search bar it just brings up the search box with my search history.
Edit: Found it - Touch and hold on the home screen > settings > turn on google now

You have turned google now off, to turn it back on, press and hold, on home screen, and go to settings, and select google now, then you can switch it back on from there.

[Q] How to disable extra key for language switching in lollipop keyboard

Hey,
does anyone know how to disable the seperate key on the lollipop keyboard if you have more than one input language enabled? It used to be possible to disable it from keyboard settings, but i can not find that option anymore. But you can still switch languages with the space key, so it only takes up space.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Anybody? I was looking for an answer to this too and ended up here. There's literally 3 ways to do this directly from the keyboard in L. There's the language switch button next to the space bar, the new soft key on the bottom right next to the multi tasking button, and there's long pressing the space bar itself. I'm all for some redundancy, but this is just wasteful and space consuming.
At the very least, bring the option back from kitkat to turn off the language switch key to the left of the space bar. I'd love that space freed up again.
I would really like to know as well, SwiftKey is lagging terribly so I am using Goggle keyboard for now, but holy crap that language switch button is annoying! I keep pressing it instead of comma because I need both English and danish when i type
Looking around but nothing found I was thinking to move to another keyb waitnig for an update.
Thats's very 'idiot' to propose three ways then also the switch by the space is easy to press by mistake
The added key by the multitaks is great
This is very annoying for me when using swiftkey. I accidently always swipe over this keyboard button. It would be really helpful to disable this button as it was in kitkat.

Google please fix this
Im having the same annoying issue
I have a moto g and Im agree is stupid have 3 ways to change languages
I too ended up here while looking for ways to disable the annoying language switch button. I could understand its function if we didn't have the long-press option of the space bar to switch languages, but it's ridiculous to not have an option to hide the button.
So... Still no solution?
Maybe if someone is able to decompile the google keyboard.apk and disable it from there, I don't know. It's very funny that Google developers doesn't use 1+ languages in their tests, otherwise they'll know.
Language & input -> Current keyboard -> Choose Keyboards -> Turn off any enabled keyboards (you will not be able to disable Google Keyboard)

Not sure what you mean. We are talking about Google keyboard with multiple languages enabled because we want to use more than 1 language.
When you have multiple languages enabled, the "Switch keyboard" icon appears.
Your solution doesn't work, the language switched button still appears on the keyboard.
I had this same problem when i had the A.I. Type keyboard installed and the issue disappeared entirely when I uninstalled it.
