Regardless of application, there is no voice input key!
Key Missing: i.imgur.com/ qEM5H3l.png
Settings: i.imgur.com/ uQWjULU.png
Any idea what to do? I tried restarting, un-checking the Voice Input Key and re-checking it, and crying to Google Now that I need the setting to work.
Saying, "OK, Google" works fine.
You need to enable it in Settings > Language and Input > Automatic voice typing

I disabled this keyboard on my input. However, after each reboot, the keyboard will always appear on keyboard input menu. Amd when I go into my settings, the Google Voice typing is not selected. But once I went into the settings, the input will be disabled for the whole session until the next reboot.
Anyone encounter this?
Setting keyboard "show correction suggestions" setting to "Always Show" doesn't work
There is a problem that we are experiencing for long time. Please, star it in order of Google devs see it. Thanks.
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39729
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Make sure the Android Keyboard is set as your input method.
2. Navigate to settings > Language & Input > Android Keyboard Settings
3. Set "Show correction suggestions" setting to "Always Show"
4. Open Google Now and tap the search box
5. The Android keyboard is displayed, but does not give suggestions
What happened:
When using the Android keyboard, suggestions are not always shown to you as you would expect. A proper description of current "Always show" implementation is "Always show...with some exceptions"
(Note: This is presumably because textNoSuggestions and/or TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS is set for the inputType in the apps where suggestions are not shown)
What you think the correct behavior should be:
1. Keep the current implementation of "Always Show" but rename it "Show when enabled" or just "Enabled" (or anything that doesn't have the finality of "always")
2. Add new implementation of option "Always Show" that ignores the app's preference for showing suggestions and actually ALWAYS show suggestions.

only suggestion I can give is, stop using any custom roms. they dont focus on this little s***... it woks fine with my straight stock but rooted..
How? I'm using stock rom in my Nexus 4 and Galaxy Nexus and it's terrible to use the swipe feature of keyboard.
Bump. Still in 4.3.
Bump. Please star it.
for anyone still looking for a solution there is the Kii keyboard on the play store which offer the option to keep the correction bar visible while retaining the same look and feel of the original Google keyboard.
Need some help with this Feature!!
I struggle to have this option work correctly on any of my keyboard apps not only google. Allot of times theres no suggestions and what happens is the auto-correct feature kicks in instead. Now i rather have the correct way to spell a word or options for similuar words above the number keys on my keyboard. But instead theres no suggested words at all and my typing becomes etrocious and words get spelt with numbers randomly placed around and nothing corrects however words do, I guess you say the oppisite of correct? I might type "Thanks" allot and because ive hit "5hnks" hitting "5" by mistake makes the keyboard think "thats a new word, let me add that to my dicitionary" and now "thanks" becomes "5hnks" and many words that begin "Th" are now replaced to "5h" because the keyboard has auto learned Incorrectly thinking its being smart to learn how you type, Does this make any sence? its anoying when i dont cath the mistakes.. I want a better working "Sugested words" Option?
Have you found a solution?
I have tried here:
- Go Keyboard (my favorite)
- Hacker's Keyboard
- Swiftkey Keyboard.
- Cute Emoji Keyboard
Only swiftkey and Cute were able to show predictions/suggestions everywhere.
Liking the phone so far, except gesture typing with the android keyboard will not work. I have enabled this in the android keyboard settings, and even tried restarting the phone, with no success. Is this a known issue? Anyone having the same problem?

I have no issue with the app. What is you problem? Is it that when you go to type the regular keyboard is showing? If so hit the globe icon next to the space bar. That will either auto switch to Google Handwriting Input or give you a menu to with the option to choose Google Handwriting Input. If that isn't your problem then please tell us what specific issue you're having.

Sorry, I was not too specific. In the messaging app, or search widget, or any time when the android keyboard pops up, I am unable to use swipe to input text, that is, inputting a word by sliding through the letters. This is in spite of gesture typing being enabled in android keyboard settings. Settings/Language and Input/Android Keyboard/Gesture Typing
Thanks

Oh OK. Yeah it's a known issue. Install the Google Keyboard from the play store. That one works fine.
I want to activate the google now on tap. the action is there but it cant be enabled and greyed out. my language setting is english. I've found a thread on this forum that stated out you have to set google as voice and assist input app as default to enable this, but I can't find that on 'setting' menu. any suggestion?
thanks anyway
On my Huawei P8 max with Android 5 I have changed something during installation or configuration.
I rarely use keyboard and usually use speech recognition - the window with "tap to pause" and the text is going to input field.
But after "something" I have only the window with "try saying something" and the text is not going in the input field during speech but after I have finished... just a sentence appears suddenly in the input field.
How to fix it, back to the old voice window "tap to pause" where I could recognize many sentences and it appears a word after word during speaking.
Solution:
go to play app
search "google voice typing keyboard"
install gboard - the google keyboard
open
select input method
configure input methods
turn on google voice typing (automatic)
