Google Voice Typing is not working after recent Android update.

I use English language on my S20+. Before the update i can use Cantonese on my Google Voice Typing, even my keyboard setting is only set as 'English''.
After the update, the Google Voice Typing can only understand English, I tried to go into the setting, add new language, I cannot see Cantonese as an option anymore.

And if I click ''Default Language'' under Language, Cantonese is shown as an option but there have no 'save' or 'ok' button after I have checked the box. (Please see attached)

I also see that in Setting, Keyboard list and default, have an option ''Google Voice Typing [Legacy], which was not there before the update. (Please see attached).

Please help if you know any solution, I can speak Cantonese, but I cannot type it, so this dictication method is very useful and necessary for me. Thank you.

Hi,
Is this a joke?
What does ... mean in "Then hit the ... and from there, un check "enable auto-update"." ?

Thank you oh so very much.
Dumb people like me need smart people like you to counteract dumb people like those who created this absurd problem.
Thank you.

Same issue here on Note10 +, probably caused by Google. The work around to uninstall Google speech services update works.  Thanks

Do you mean it's working again with the latest version?
Or you've just tried the trick above and it worked for you too?

I don't own a Samsung but I made an account just to let you know that you are an absolute lifesaver! I'm on a Oneplus and after a recent update this same issue happened to me and it was driving me crazy. Voice Typing is essential for me to type Mandarin Chinese for work and I followed your steps and everything turned out just as it was previously. Perfectly splendid 😌. Thank you so much you are my hero!

I'm glad it's working for everyone! I do wonder when Google will fix this (especially since they keep advertising about translation and such with Simu Liu! )
