Switched my phone on a couple of days ago and suddenly any application where a keyboard would normally pop up (Email, Texting, entering passwords, searches etc) has been replaced by googlespeak popping up.
I have gone through all the settings I can find to either disable, delete or stop googlespeek popping up.
Anyone any ideas about how I might get my keyboard back as the only thing I can use the phone for is phoning?
Solved! Go to best answer.

You could try installing a different keyboard and see if selecting that allows you to change anything.
Edited to add: There's a discussion on the Android Central forum that has a few possible solutions too.

If you go into the main Settings menu, there should be a section for Input. Have a look there.

There is an inputs section in settings.
I can select "virtual keyboards"
this brings up google voice typing which is in automatic mode and cannot be de-selected
I can select "physical keyboard". "Keep it on screen while physical keyboard is active"
Selecting or deselecting this option makes no difference.

Hi @steve1T

There is no option of default keyboard.
Optons are:-
virtual keyboard >google voice tying is on automatic and cannot be deselected
Physical keyboard> Show virtual keyboard. This can be selected or de-selected it doesn't stop the google talk comming up

Thanks for the help.
Installing a new keyboard has fixed the problem.
