It's been a while since I used voice to text on my phone (not since ICS). I have a project now that would be much easier with voice to text than typing so I was playing around with it today. What I found was kind of bitter sweet.
I use Swiftkey keyboard and it had me install Google Voice Search in order to do voice to text. It works and is very accurate but it doesn't add text to a field or input area as I speak. It waits until I finish and then gives a few options to select the string that most closely resembles what I said. Well, at least that is how it's supposed to work but in reality, it cuts me off mid word and sentence and usually only after 10 to 20 words. I then have to wait, select the text and then restart it to keep going. Also there is no option to download offline language packs, which will be problematic.
This is not how the voice to text functioned on ICS. I believe it was called Google Voice Typing? It stayed on, didn't cut me off and inputted the text while I spoke. Although I do remember that it was not as accurate. I also remember downloading offline language packs.
I thought it might be to do with Swiftkey so I installed the Google Keyboard but the mic icon on it did nothing at all. Is there a way to get back useable voice to text functionality on kitkat? Can I just flash Google Voice Typing?
Cheers!
Just go and paste apk in priv-app folder and .so in lib folder in your /system.
After pasting them please set permissions using es file explorer as disable all exucitables and disable last two write option.
Reboot and mark the new keyboard as default.

After doing so go to settings of keyboard and select english uk and us both in the menu.
Next time you open your keyboard. You will have an icon on your status bar. To switch to voice typing just click that notification and select google voice typing and you are done. First five or six time it will need a network but later on it will be offline.
Thanks droid_god. I installed the Google Keyboard manually as per your instructions but it doesn't have the voice input icon. Funny thing is that I had the mic icon on the Google Keyboard I installed from the play store, it just didn't do anything accept vibrate when I selected it. In the keyboard settings of the manually installed keyboard the menu and tick box for voice input key is greyed out and says "No voice input methods enabled. Check Languages & input settings." There is no setting for voice input in my system settings, just the Google Voice Search settings which is on.
I suspect that I do not have Google Voice Typing (or whatever it's called) on my phone at all. Is it possible that this should have been part of gApps but was missing? Is it possible to flash just the missing stuff?
Cheers
Yes voice typing is a part of google search app which you get as a widget on main screen when you buy a phone.
Try out this
Go to input method and open settings for google keyboead and there dobthat

Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean. I already had the english uk and us selected if that was what you meant?
Yes and did you check the status bar icon of keyboard when you open keyboard to type.
Just hit that icon and select voive typing
There Is no voice typing option available. The input options are English UK, English US, Huawei Swype, or Swiftkey Keyboard. I don't understand how anything I have done yet could make Google Voice Typing work as it doesn't appear to be installed on the phone. Well if it is actually installed, it isn't in the settings, language and input menu. Is there a way to check, i.e. look for a certain file in system folder?
If you own a kitkat device look for an app named velvet in your priv-apps. If its there then you have voice typing installed. If its not there then i can manage to swnd you the app.
No worries, and thank you. I have 2 devices running on slimkat roms. I'm away for a while now but will check them when I get home. Velvet isn't in the priv-app folder on the phone I am having trouble with, although it is kitkat too.
The velvet app is essential for voice typing i will providd you the link for one

Download the app named as google search from play store and then inmstall it. Reboot your device and you are done now you can use the voice typing.
Give it a try
Thanks droid_god, that did it. The app is just called Google in the play store though. They must have dropped search from the name somewhere along the way. Now to work out why it has so much trouble contacting the Google servers.... Probably just best to download the offline language packs. Thanks again!
Hmm i will be having a blue square and a white g on it.
Thats named velvet in system.of my device and google search in my application manager. God knows is there a hole in google play bag which brought the apps name.
The tread was usefull for me to thank you

In case anyone is interested, a quick app I put together which provides a large keyboard, with both numbers and letters, which lets you launch navigation to an address very quickly.
The big keyboard is great for typing addresses in while the phone is on a car dashboard.
The separate numbers are dead useful if you live somewhere like the UK, with number /letter postal codes, as you don't have to keep switching to get the number bits.
Works great from Google Car Home.
Supports launching Google Navigation or Google Maps.
Choose UK/US and French and German keyboard layouts, or set your own custom layout.
Also supports working as an input method for use with any other in car navigation application. You can use an app such as Tasker to automatically switch input method when your phone is in car mode.
I don't like posting apk files, so it is free on the market, it is called quickgo.
Any comments / bug reports etc. welcome.
Cheers,
Joe
Looks really great! Its now on the first slot of my Car Home However, would it be possible to add an option to change layouts? I'm normally using a German keyboard, which has the Y and Z exchanged - the Umlaute are not required as google normally doesnt need them either.
One way would be maybe to create a textfile on the SDcard with your orginal layout, so that would mean the file would consist of 37 chars, 1-0 and Q-",". If the user wants to place for example the M where the Q is he just exchanges these two chars in the file and then loads them from your app
Super simple and easy to use and easy to see when in my mount.
Great work.
A great little app, works great when not in my car mount, will report back after I've tried it in the car.

Looks nice
Edit, tested it and it works great, but the system doesn't pick it up as one of the available keyboards. Is that coming soon ?
Found some info about input methods here.
I was hoping I can switch to this keyboard automatically via a 'car mode' profile (tasket/setting profiles/etc)
works great
very smooth, very simple, very good.
what about an option or preference setting for the result to show up in maps instead of going straight to navigation?
Cheers all,
am in the process of adding French / azerty, German / quertz and user defined keyboard support. Hopefully will finish and post an update this weekend if not earlier.
Good idea about preference to launch maps, that should be dead easy to stick in, it's just a single line change to launch something different.
Britoso - right now it isn't a full input method, just a single app, optimized to be easy to see in a car, and set up so it goes directly to navigation. I just have it in place of the navigate icon in my car home. I can't really see it being much use for other things, emails, texts or whatever, as it deliberately doesn't support things like punctuation, lower case etc. in order to make most efficient use of the screen space.
It would make a good keyboard for almost all navigation apps Shouldn't be too much more work.
Right, the latest version (0.3) now supports German and French keyboard layouts, and also lets you set your own layout if you want something other than QWERTY / AZERTY or QWERTZ.
It also has a preference you can set to launch maps instead of launching straight into navigation.
Looking at the input method stuff it looks like it isn't super hard, like you say, it can probably use most of the same code, hopefully I'll find some time to play with that soon. It would be convenient for use with other navigation apps like CoPilot which might not support being launched with an address.
Joe
Just perfect! Thanks!
cant making it ANY easier than clicking my icon and entering an address
Would it be possible to link the app to google maps instead? I use it more than the full navigation. Other than that, it is perfect and a great solution.

As if by magic an update appears. Now supports running as an input method for sick puppies who wish to use it as their keyboard.
Use something like Tasker or similar profile app to change input method when you put your car in car mode.

From the creators of Sliding Messaging Pro (@klinkdawg24 and I), we wanted to announce our newest project for you guys today! Sliding Emoji Keyboard!
Play Store description:
This is a standalone keyboard that we have created with our app Sliding Messaging Pro. It is baked into that app, so there is no need to download here if you are only using it for that app, but we wanted to add it for anyone to use, even if you don't support us through that app.
This keyboard only supports Google's new Google+ emojis, the ones in their hangouts app.
NOTE: This app will NOT actually show the emojis in the text box or on the device unless your system supports them! Please understand this! We have no way to add support for that from this app. If you would like to get that working, you will have to have a rooted phone and change the system font to one that supports Google's emojis.
Even though it doesn't show them correctly in the text boxes, when you send the message/tweet/email or whatever you are using it for, they will show up correctly, again as long as the app supports Google's new emojis. The recipient will receive them fine as well, as long as their phone has emoji support. They will be received fine on any iOS devices and any messaging app for Android that supports them. Almost all do by now.
To actually see the emojis in the app, you will have to install an app that supports them. Examples of this would be: Sliding Messaging Pro, WhatsApp, Hangouts, and many more, you will have to find out yourself if the app you want to use our keyboard with supports them.
--- How to Enable/Use ---
To enable the "Sliding Emoji Keyboard", go to Settings -> Language & Keyboard, then check the "Sliding Emoji Keyboard" to enable it.
To use "Sliding Emoji Keyboard", you need to change the input method:
- In Android 2.3 and below, select "Sliding Emoji Keyboard" from the dialog that comes up after long pressing on any text box.
- In Android 4.0 and above, drag down the notification tray when a text box is selected, then select "Sliding Emoji Keyboard" after switching the input method.
--- REMEMBER ---
As I said above, you won't be able to see all the emojis on the device! Sometimes they will show up as a blank space and usually they will show up as aiona black and white image of the selected emoji. THIS IS FINE. THEY WILL SEND CORRECTLY to all your friends that have support for them (again, iOS users and any Android messaging apps that have the emojis in them).

We think that it turned out very well. Looks great and supports Google's new emojis.
Some notes for Sliding Messaging Pro users:
- this app is baked right into Sliding Messaging (for an upcoming update), so you don't have to download this keyboard to use it
- This keyboard is available anywhere in the system though if you do download it, so if you want to use it with other apps, twitter, email, ect. you will have to download it.
- We did it a little differently in Sliding Messaging to increase funtionality. It is the same concept here, just isn't able to actually display the emojis on the edittexts, where as it is able to do this in sliding messaging. So just know this, as it is explained in the description.
Let us know what you think
Link may not be live yet on the play store, but it will be soon!
About time someone is doing this. Thank you. Good first release, just reporting something I noticed. When I do a long hold on the back button to delete all text and emoji, then try to do the emojis again, it's unresponsive for a few seconds then shows just blank spaces where they would be (in regular MMS app). Have to back out then go back in to seen them again.
Looking forward to more releases.

Feel like I should also mention, the goal of this keyboard is to be usable with any other keyboard out there easily. We didn't want to compete with swiftkey or swype or anyone else, so this is kind of an add on to any other keyboard. As a little tip, you can hold down the space bar (at least on the stock keyboard) to get to the keyboard switcher and then select the sliding emoji keyboard and when you are done, hold down on the delete button and it quickly switches back to your previous keyboard.
Just put up version 1.20. This one contains a favorites tab that automatically stores your most used emojis. Great for quick access!
People are missing out! This is the best ive downloaded!
For anyone who is interested and likes Sliding Emoji Keyboard, I just put up a version that uses all the iOS 7 emojis instead if you prefer those!
The download will be here:

Give it a few hours and it will be showing up, Google takes some time to process it. Enjoy and tell your friends

Saw this on phandroid and thought it was worth sharing here.
If you're like me and you want to test out some of the most noticeable new features in Android 4.4 KitKat then this is for you.
I have tested cm11 alpha1 for about 30 minutes and all I can say is that it's nothing more than a proof of concept at this point (just like the alpha tag suggests).
So if you want some of the quirks of KitKat in a stable environment (any jb rom) here's a way of getting some of it.
While Google still hasn’t provided the actual launcher in the Play Store, some simple sideloading of the GoogleHome.apk we found in the Nexus 5′s factory image, along with the updated Google Search app, got everything up and running. Here’s our easy how-to on getting GEL installed and fully functional on your Android device.

}
First, make sure to enable the sideloading of apps by going into your device Settings > Security > and checking Unknown sources. From there download the updated Google Search and Google Home from us (linked below). Jump into your Downloads app and install both the apps you just downloaded (press the descriptions, not the check boxes), selecting “done” after every installation.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/gxv7cvpcvv79i23/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox318.apk
http://www.mediafire.com/download/3ina0fd8fwki5fo/GoogleHome.apk
From there, press the home button and select “Launcher” as your default homescreen — this is the new Google Experience Launcher. You’ll notice the always listening “Ok Google” command doesn’t work from the Google Experience Launcher. No worries, turning it on is easy.
For some, you’ll be able to swipe to the left and quickly access Google Search/Now, but if that’s not available, you’ll need to actually enable the new Google Search/Now app. It’s easy, just open the Google Search app (listed as “Google” in your app drawer) and click “Next” then “I’m in.” Once that’s taken care of, jump back to your homescreen. You’ll now be able to swipe to the left and access Google Now.
Once in Google Now, scroll all the way to the bottom and press the 3 dot menu to select Settings. From there, select “voice” > “offline speech recognition” (manage downloaded languages). Now, we’re going to work our way from the right tab, all the way to the left.
Select the Auto-Update tab from the top and choose one of the auto-update options (we recommend leaving it on “over WiFi-only”). After that, scoot over to the All tab and find English (US). You’ll notice it already says “pre-installed”. Don’t listen to it. Select English (US) anyway. From there, jump to the Installed tab and press “English (US)” where you’ll be asked to download the latest version (version 28 at the time of writing). Hit “Download” and the updated version will be downloaded and installed.
After it’s finished downloading, press the home button where you’ll notice “Ok Google” will now be displayed inside the Google Search widget. Simply speak that phrase whenever you’re on your homescreen to perform a Google Search or voice actions. That’s it. Was relatively painless, right?
Thanks, Justin!

Is anyone else notice that the voice typing on Google keyboard stopped working? When I text someone, sometimes I'm lazy and hit the microphone on the keyboard and just talk and let voice type put the words in for me. The latest update moved the mic to a popup and it doesn't do anything anymore. Only affecting my droid maxx. My nexus 7 seems fine. Sent Google a few complaints, but haven't heard back yet. Nothing I've done has fixed it yet either. Rolled back several apps and haven't had any luck fixing it yet. Anyone heard anything?
Update
Found setting to fix it. Not sure how it got changed but fixed it.

When you are in typing mode, there should be a notification to switch input methods - choose that. Choose "set up input methods". Put a check next to "Google voice typing", then go back (or choose "Google keyboard").
This should put the voice input key to the left of the spacebar.

you must go to the phone settings, then to language & imput, then check Google voice typing, on the same page, select the menu button beside Google keyboard, check the Voice input key, and your mic button should then show up on your keyboard again.

This is exactly what I wanted how do I get this to be my default voice to text. Whenever I click the button on the bottom left of my keyboard, the mic button, it always brings me to Samsung voice to text. On the Note 5 you are able to hit that button and bring up Google Voice to Text.

My settings will not allow me to change my keyboard preference to Google. Each time I go up into the notifications and change the input there the next time I go to use it it automatically goes back to default. Thank goodness I know how to get to the Google speech to text. It works so smooth and with so little effort
I used to own a Pebble Time Steel and it has a great app called Checklist. You could open the app, press a button, and a microphone symbol would appear. You could then add an item to the checklist by speaking the word for that item. You could even add several items at once by saying the words separated by "comma". So you I could say "milk comma bread" and two separate items would appear on the check list. Milk and bread.
Eliminating the items was also easy. Each item had a check box next to it. I could highlight the item, press a button, and a check would appear in the box. I could check as many items at one time as I wished. Then at the bottom of the list I could select "Clear Completed" and they would be erased from the list.
This was such an elegant and simple app, I am stunned there is nothing like it for the Gear S3. The only checklist apps I have seen are ones which are incredibly difficult and cumbersome to use, and none of them can add an item to the list by voice. They all require writing the list item letter by letter on the screen, backing up one screen and selecting "Done", and then hitting a plus symbol, writing the next item letter by letter, and so forth. This is ridiculous.
Does anyone know of a checklist which can be created by voice? The only "note" apps out there with voice recordings makes a separate recording for each item, and that is equally stupid.
Every time you have a keyboard, you have also a mic to write with voice recognition (Listonic, Shopping List..... and more) (I turn left and have voice input). On Gear you can correct the input, on pebble you must retry every time voice is not correct.

There is no keyboard or microphone in the Shopping Lists app. You have to write each letter by hand. I thought I already mentioned that.

None of those screens appear on the Gear S3 Shopping Lists app.
No keyboard. No mike. You have to write each list item letter by letter, by hand. A keyboard never appears. You have to write by hand. No keyboad. No mike.
I am asking about the Gear S3.
Not the Gear S2.
I just want to open an app on my watch, press a button, say a word, and have that word appear on a list. And when I open the app and press the button a few hours later, and say another word, I want that word to be added to the same list.
Then when I have purchased an item from the list, I'd like to be able to open the app and select the item and easily delete it.
This isn't hard to understand.
Does such an app exist or not?
Here is the Pebble app: https://apps.getpebble.com/en_US/application/5620e876768e7ada4e00007a
Is there anything like this for the Samsung Gear S3?
Yes. Shopping List app and Listonic exist even for Gear S3. And Samsung Keyboard exist also on S3.
Check your setting/installation for your S3.
You can see same screen I posted for the Gear S3.
