Can I change the microphone action in Messages - General Questions and Answers

Normally I like Google's grasp on functionality but this one bugs me. Which is the more common task when using Messages... Voice to Text or recording a voice file to send via text? That's a pretty easy choice. So I want to force the text box microphone to start voice to text rather than saying "press and hold to record audio". The single press doesn't even do anything except show that message.
I'm not holding my breath that anything can be done about this but it doesn't hurt to ask. Thank you!
Default behavior. Message to press and hold for audio recording.

Default view with keyboard exposed. I want to either swap or override the function of the top microphone to start voice to text.

[Q] SWYPE Question

I recently updated SWYPE to the latest beta version, and there is a key on the keyboard that I do not know what it's function is.
Any ideas on what the key outlined in red does?

OK - I managed to figure it out.
SWYPE now uses Nuance's Dragon Dictation speech recognition engine to do voice recognition (Nuance bought SWYPE).
Just hit that button (they call it the "Flame Button") and a voice input box pops up. Speak and it will translate into text.
It does not work yet for search input or web address input. But it seems to work just fine for other text fields, such as messages...

They did indeed have the answer.
Thank you so so so so so so very much!
The solution for me was to DECLINE the pop up every time.
Open the stock contacts app (orange button) and open my own profile (shown at the top of the contacts list).
From my profile, the first option was profile sharing, which was turned off. Click it on the text.. Don't toggle it on or off, you may hang up your phone.
It'll display your registered number at the bottom. Ignore that. You're going to deregister your number but you don't do it from there.
Click the menu or 'more' button at the top. Deregister your phone number.
Done.

Google Voice Typing not working

I have a Samsung Galaxy A2 Core (SM-A260G) and I can't seem to sign in to my Google Account in Google Voice Typing.
In this picture you can see that I am not signed in,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then when I press the top option to sign in, all I see is...
When I go to Add account, I get a sign-in screen but if I try to sign in it says that I already have the account in the device.
I would really appreciate any help I can get on this
P.S. I also can't seem to use languages other than English for voice typing. Even if I select the language I prefer in the options it doesn't work. I'm assuming this is because I'm not logged in. It's really confusing. I used to use the seperate Voice Typing feature in GBoard but they seem to have replaced that feature with this default one. I need this Voice Typing to type up documents quickly. Again any help is appreciated.
Thank you.

What are these messages called and how can they be disabled?

This message appears when I switch windows when writing a new email in the Nine email app. This message blocks the keyboard and is annoying, so I would like it disabled. Since theres no way to turn if off in the app settings, I would like to disable this notification through more advanced means. First I want to know what it is called so I can search for a xposed module or some other mod that removed it all together. I don't like useless pop up message. I find them to be about as annoying as bugs crawling on my screen.

That is a toast
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop-up_notification
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/toasts.html
On my LOS20 there is a setting "Dont show pop-notifications on screen" but not sure if that does the trick for you...
Q: Disable app's toast messages?
groups.google.com
According to this they can be disabled on an app basis using adb. Which is just what I want.
