Question [Q] Google Voice (just for SMS/texting) - missing keyboard?

I had heard Google Voice worked fine on the Touch, but the lower third of the keyboard is always missing, rendering its SMS/text capabilities basically nil.

Anyone have a similar experience and/or have a workaround?

(sigh)

Well, I worked on the app trying different methods of possibly expanding the keyboard to full size to no avail. I searched the Market for any substitutes for GoogleVoice. Nothing there, either.

Has anyone found a substitute?

Default GV Mobile site.

I use the Google Voice mobile site: www dot google dot com/voice/b/0/m. It works great in Opera Mobile. I'm too new to post links, so you'll have to fix that address...

Indeed! I ended up switching to using the mobile site (in Opera mini) just as you did. Worked fine for me.

However, of late, I decided to switch keyboards (currently both GO Keyboard and ICS Keyboard) and they end up working just fine in the actual Google Voice app. These keyboards don't get "cut off".

I use swifttabletx, but the corrections don't pop up, so i disabled them, and it works great.
