[Q] Swype with Voice Input on 2.2.1? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I noticed that none of the 2.2.1 ROM's I've tried so far have the version of Swype with voice input. I like this feature enough to go back to 2.2 and wanted to ask if there are any 2.2.1 ROMs with the voice input version?
Thanks,

[Q] Greyblur + 2.1.1 SBF = cannot send Unicode SMS

Hi!
This morning I flashed my Atrix 4G with U4_2.1.1 SBF and then installed GreyBlur 2.1. So far, great experience... except when I realised that all SMS I sent using Unicode (Chinese or French characters) were stripped down from all the non ASCII chars!
I can receive and type unicode... so what's going on?
Thanks for your help!

If its anything like "emoji" I use on Handcent, the other person receiving the message has to have it installed as well. For example, if you have emoji plugin installed you will receive the emoji, if not you will receive gibberish. I know anyone with an iPhone can get the emoji w/o plugin.
Thanks
Unfortunately, I am using the stock SMS application, hasn't gotten around to try things like Handcet yet... It used to work with the original ROM (French Orange), not sure if the culprit is 2.1.1 or GreyBlur.
I seem to remember there was a setting for the charset used in SMS, but I can't seem to find it anymore.

[Q] Is it possible to get older version of swype?

Swype on the sgs2 isn't really that great; it's not adding words to dictionary and it's kinda annoying.
I would like to use the swype version that was on the T959 (canada fascinate, us vibrant).
Is there anyway to get this version of swype? Please let me know.
My phone is rooted and on the ligtening rom

Where is voice input?

Ok guys, im currently running CyanogenMMatt v1.1 (a CM7 mik 6.5.7 port) and i just now realized that it doesnt have voice input. I was wondering what apk it is and how to go about installing it?
Im talking about the ability to speak into the phone and have it translate it to text.
thanks

If you download google voice search from the market it comes with the voice input.

Another solution would be to get Swype Beta. The current version includes Dragon Dictate, and works very well.
It is also my favorite keyboard.

NO VOICE TO TEXT in CM9

I am using @squadzone's CM9 for Galaxy Mini Beta 3 on my Galaxy Mini. However I dont find the mic button in the standard Android keyboard(dat came default with the OS) for voice to text. Any ideas how to bring it back? I really liked the voice to text demo and how ICS handles it. I write a lot and voice to text would really help. Anyone knows anything? thanks in advance.

ICS Voice Search ARMv6 and Google Now

Voice Search seems to work fine in ICS if you grab it from the store, it just doesn't come up on the stock keyboard. If you try to activate the icon in the input settings, it appears, then disappears. However, if you use a different keyboard, such as GO Keyboard or Swype, the icon shows up, and voice to text input works fine. I understand that some keyboards use their own voice search, but I believe GO uses your ICS voice search, and an older version of Swype does as well. Smart Keyboard seems like the simplest and most elegant replacement, but I haven't tested it yet.
Now then, I just read about ICS Google Now Voice Search for ARMv6 devices in this post. Does anyone know if this works for Aria?
