Sense Style Voice Keyboard on CM7 ?

[ClockerXP]

I like CM7 but I REALLY like the voice keyboard in the HTC Sense UI. How can I get CM7 with that keyboard incorporated? Any ideas?

Droid Incredible

Currently using this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1260994

Thanks,

Swype has that - can you still register for the beta?

Swype looks like a finger keyboard. I'm looking for the Sense style where you can just hit the mic button and talk what you want to type into the phone... Swype looks interesting though.

Swype itself is a keyboard, yes, but at least on the SGS2 and Evo, it also has a Mic key. Click that and you can speak into it.

Actually, I thought the stock Android keyboard on CM7 had that too. Guess I'm wrong.

CM7's stock keyboard does have the Mic button (at least it does on my Thunderbolt). OP, go to Settings -> Language and Keyboard -> Android Keyboard -> Voice Input. Has options for "On main keyboard", "On symbols keyboard", or "Off". Check to make sure yours is not set to Off.

OMG really! Good thing I still have the CM7 zip on my SD card!

Crap. Just did a fresh install of CM7 on my DInc and that voice setting is not there. Argh.

Ahhh... Installing Google Voice Search did the trick! Thanks guys.

I use Thumb Keyboard, it it has a Mic key that brings up Google Voice search prompt.
