It Works! I copied the Universalsearch.apk but was nor able to install it. However, I copied anyway the Voice Search apk to system folder and inslalled it. And a little - working! - microphone magically appeared in the search box.
Thanks indeed

tried...didn't work too well
Hi all, I tried doing the exact same thing but I couldn't get either of them to install successfully. I put both apk's in the system folder and set the rw-r-r type permissions for both. I get the search box and I get the little microphone logo to appear in the corner of input fields but when I hit it, it says "Voice search has stopped." Any ideas? Do you guys actually have the dictation running and are able to speak into the native microphone? Getting this to work would be huge.
---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------
Someone on another forum on a related topic was sayng google voice search needs the libspeech.so library into /system/lib/ to work. I put that in there, and the service no longer stops. The tiny dictation circle appears for like 2 seconds and disappears after that. I tried talking to it, but it doesn't ever light up red for me both just kind of yelling at it directly and thru a 3-prong headset. There's a little settings icon that appears in the corner, when you hit it quickly, you see the settings menu but it's gone after 2 seconds like nothing ever happened...
Btw, I have the 8.9 with firmware 8.1.3, rooted via bin4ry's method with Google Play and some apps from there installed.
Fantastic work. Got voice search working flawlessly on my Fire HD 8.9. I think the next step is to get it working with the keyboard, so that we have a microphone button on our keyboard for voice input typing.
EDIT: found a possible bug after installing dictation as it relates to the keyboard. After installing dictation features, the settings> keyboard option now defaults to Google voice typing settings, blocking the ability to set a default keyboard. To set a keyboard input method, you have to create a custom shortcut to keyboard> settings in a launcher to access the traditional default keyboard input options selector.
An upside that i noticed is after i installed a secondary keyboard (Korean) and changed the default to it, the familiar voice input microphone button is back.
KFHD uses a custom Swype and different layout from other Swype keyboard I've used in the past so getting Swype + voice input typing combined will be a bit tricky. Ideally, I'd like Swype with a button to cycle between input languages + voice input button
Okay, I got this to work...the lib step confused me at first. You need to copy /system/lib/libvoicesearch.so from the ICS package to the corresponding folder on your device. I also copied libspeech.so and libspeexwrapper.so for good measure, although I don't know if that was neccessary. Trying to install the apk packages failed on both counts for me, but that did not hinder the process Interesting that I can get all the other languages just by copying such small files.
Anyone have the ICS keyboard running so one can access the dictation feature in things like emails as well? Is there an apk for that? Kindle keyboard annoys me...
Google Dictation
Thank you, it is indeed working. Here is what I did to get the dictation to function:
1) Downloaded the correct package here: VoiceSearch
2) Extract VoiceSearch.zip to VoiceSearch on your Desktop
3) Copy libvoicesearch.so, UniversalSearch.apk and VoiceSearch.apk from the folder VoiceSearch to the Download folder on your Kindle Drive
4) Using Root Explorer, copy /sdcard/download/libvoicesearch.so to /system/lib/libvoicesearch.so change the libvoicesearch.so permissions to Owner: Read Write Group: Read Others: Read
5) Using Root Explorer, copy /sdcard/UniversalSearch.apk to /system/app change the UniversalSearch.apk permissions to Owner: Read Write Group: Read Others: Read
6) Using Root Explorer, copy /sdcard/VoiceSearch.apk to /system/app change the VoiceSearch.apk permissions to Owner: Read Write Group: Read Others: Read
7) Reboot the Kindle
8) Now go into Apps, you will see a new Icon named Search. Launch Search, then click on the little Microphone, speak clearly (I used the word Test).
9) The application will next ask you which browser do you want to use to display the results (I use Opera). Then just like that, your new journey begins!
you can also add the new google now stuff and just set voice search as the default voice dictation then you have google now and dictation except it doesn't work with google now itself
I installed a Walkman port that turned out to be nonfunctional, and since I was stupid and didn't make a backup before, I had to remove it manually, but I must have deleted something that was related to the Music app, because now it crashes when I try to open it. Can someone be nice enough to extract some files from the stock kitkat rom the following folders so I can check out which files I'm missing?
The stuff that I must have accidentally deleted was in one of the following folders:
system/etc/permissions
system/etc/surround_sound
sustem/framerwork (something with "sony" in the filename)
system/lib
system/soundfx
Alternatively I'd like to know if there is any way to extract these folders from the odin flashable firmware file I downloaded so I can restore these folders without having to reflash everything. There is a system.ext4 in the tar file but I can't seem to find a way to open it.
And finally, is there some way to troubleshoot what's making the app crash? It's probably missing a file, is there some way to tell which one?
Reflashing the firmware is a last resort because I already customized a lot on this phone and I don't feel like doing all of that again.
Update: I half-fixed it by deleting Dalvik Cache a few times. Now the app works but I don't see the notification with music controls anymore. Instead there's a notification that says "Music is running. Tap for more info or to stop the app", and if I tap it it brings me to the app info screen where I can force stop, clear data, etc. Also I click "play" and the music doesn't play anymore, it stays stuck at 00:00.
What's up with that?
I'm probably not posting this in the correct forum, but my device isn't on this forum so I figured this is the next best spot for general help.
So I read in the TK Gapps thread a way to disclude certain things from installing/overwriting stock apps. One major one I do NOT want installed is Google Now Launcher. Among a few other things... However, I cannot quite figure out how to create this file, keep it from overwriting/flat out deleting some of the stock apps, and where exactly I should put the gapps-config file when flashing. If someone has done the custom install, if you can post your script and inform me of where it goes (I'm assuming you just flash the zip as you normally do with the config file in the same folder as the zip), I can easily figure it out. Just not sure where to start.
I found this but I'm having a hard time understanding if it's saying to just type Include at the top of the config file, and then only those apps will be installed WITHOUT removing things such as the stock Launcher. Or, if I have to add a separate section to keep it from deleting some of the stock options. Essentially, I want the Full edition installed, replacing things such as the default keyboard. But I don't want it to install things such as Google Now Launcher, Camera, or some of the Play (Movies, Games, etc) things, but I don't want it to delete the stock camera or stock Launcher... Things like that.
Assistance would be highly appreciated.
I've now posted this question on 5 forums looking for an answer... Sure, the majority of you that read this probably think I am some pathetic idiot loser that needs to get a clue. All I'm asking for is some clarification on how to write the config file and how it's handled by the flashing process so I can make sure I am doing it correctly. For the love of all that is good in this world, will someone, somewhere, PLEASE provide some assistance?!

in your gapps-config.
That's it, it won't install them.
where the **** is Gapps Config.
Thats what i cant figure out.
Carefully read the opengapps wiki under https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Advanced-Features-and-Options
All your questions like where to put the gapps-config.txt file and much more are answered there.
How can i use the gapps-config file ?
i just heard about it but i can't find how to use it anywhere
Are you kidding??? I just posted the wiki link above your post!!!

I read the instructions. But I don't seem to find the gapps_config.txt file.
I downloaded gapps for nougat stock. Please help
is there any other ways to find it
**The gapps-config file must be placed in one of the following folders:
the folder containing the Open GApps installer (takes precedence)
Now I'm going to read
/sdcard/Open-GApps
/persist
/tmp/install
Going out on a limb here but I understand the above to say you have to create gapps-config file and put it in one of the above folders.
I'm a newb but recognize file structure, so I went into the terminal type #slocate gapps-config - search returned nothing. So I have to create directory /Open-GApps-folder and put gapps-config in it, within the /sdcard/ parent directory.
Basically I create the dir /Open-GApps/gapps-config in the /sdcard/ folder. Hope above provides some orientation.
I'm going to the following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60944096&postcount=4
you create a text file called "gapps-config.txt" and you put it in your external memory, sdcard, whatever... it can be in lots of folders... in that file you configure your install.
I am trying to install Pico GApps. My gapps-config here shown does not work... insufficient space...
[my gapps-config-grouper.txt]
# try it this way
Include
Core
# stock removals -- these would work
LUpdater
LSetupWizard
LRecorder
Email
ExchangeStock
PicoTTS
