[HOW TO] Get Google Voice On ICS Keyboard - Wildfire Themes and Apps

Hi guys,
I know quite a few people have been asking the same question as I was - "Why has Google Voice disappeared from ICS keyboard?"
Well, Now I have a solution!
You can either do the following:
A) Search play store for "Gingerbread Keyboard"
OR
B) Installed the attached apk.
AFTER you have done that, open a app with a text input.... get the keyboard up... then press and hold the spacebar to bring up "Input Method selection" box, then select "Gingerbread Keyboard".
you will now see a voice icon
This is not my application and I am in no responsible for it breaking your device in anyway.
Question to anyone with any knowledge of compiling keyboards - what files are related to the notification that appears whilst on a text input box? is it ok to remove these if decompile & recompile?

wildfire change keyboard: Error inserting smart keyboard pro

guys, just a little problem:
I downloaded the latest version and, after enabling the keyboard settings menu - language and keyboard,
when I open a text message, and I try to change the input method, nothing shows, I have the ability to change keyboard
always appears the original, I tried to reboot to disable keybord smart, to re-enable it, but nothing,
When I click on "integration method" returns to the screen with the original keyboard, not smart .. Why?
something wrong? well, I looked around, and I have not found anyone with my problem ..
tips?
hello, I have resolved, I was wrong in practice once you've enabled the keyboard settings menu, open a new sms, and hold on "type text here" so you can choose the input method!
Ha just found this thanks my boss has a wildfire and didn't like the standard keyboard and me having a Galaxy S I thought oh thats easy lets get him a new one.

Custom dictionary

Not quite sure how to explain this. But on my bb I could go into the dictionary and add my own words. For example, if I typed na(space) it would automatically come up "sorry not available". Does anyone know.how to do this on an android phone? I tried to find an option on my Samsung fascinate and droid charge, no luck.

Some keyboards allow you to do acronyms like Slide It I think.
Smart Keyboard Pro allows you to do this.

You can add them as you go on swype.
You can add them as you go with the stock keyboard too. As soon as you start typing a down arrow appears. Hit that and at the bottom there is a button that says add word. Or you can you can through the settings menu, language and keyboard, touch input then to personal dictionary.
You guys are misunderstanding... Basically he wants to add shortcuts... For example typing abc I can make it type out "my name is cares"

Keyboard Help - Voice to Text Issues

I'm really liking the Voice to Text (VTT) input that came with the ICS leak, and find that it works pretty well. The problem is that when I change to a different keyboard, the VTT changes. I've tried a couple of different keyboards, and they both seem to have different versions of the VTT.
On Swype beta, I've dug through the settings, but cannot seem to find anywhere to select which VTT system to use.
The only real issue I've got with the stock keyboard is that I would like to shorten the time before the alternate character is selected when long pressing a key.
If anyone has any ideas, or maybe another keyboard that uses the stock ICS VTT I'd appreciate it.
I've tried swiftkeyx, betterkeyboard, swype with no luck.
Another thing about the ICS leak that I've noticed is that you cannot press and hold over text and get that magnifying glass to place your cursor in a particular spot. Any fix for this?
Yeah, I'm replying to my own post...
The way to use the stock Google Voice Input when using an alternate keyboard is to pull down the notification bar when you are in a text input area. You should see a little keyboard icon up there, and when you pull it down, choose "Select Input Method" and choose "Google Voice Input". This only changes it for the time being, and doesn't change it system wide.
Now can anybody answer my other question below?

[Q] Keyboard problems

Ok, so I recently downloaded an APK for AI. Keyboard after which I started having problems. When I press the backspace it uses other keys like. When I press it doesn't delete but instead puts another letter like "p" and happens with other keys too. Also at time I go into settings and press on certain options such as Language & Keyboard it reverts to applications or sound settings. I don't know if this is a virus or anything. Does anyone know at all about something like this.
reckoning the keyboard app to be beta, you should post the issue in relevant forum in the keyboard app site.

[Q] Tasker help - give in-app text box focus

Hi, I'm not quite sure where to put this question, so sorry if it's in the wrong place
What I'm trying to do is give the search text box in the Contacts app focus, right when I open the app, thus bringing up the keyboard so I can type right away. Is this possible?
Thanks!
Figured it out. Used an "input tag x y" script to simulate a tap on the textbox.
