Google Navigation + Voice search for Italian, Spanish, French available now!

Hi,
Today Goggle has enabled the vocal dictation and search for Italian, Spanish and French people.
I have a Desire with Froyo (DeFrost 0.7b) and I can confirm it works very well, but only for Maps and SMS/Email dictation.
It doesn't work for internet search and voice commands.
In addition for Sense users, the HTC keyboard at the moment seems to be not enabled. It works only from Android Google Keyboard.
Is there some developers available to help us having a complete search function on HTC Keyboard and voice searc/command (if possible to link to the new google language server) ?
Thanks in advance
Sorry for my english, as usual

Can you be more specific? Where is this setting? In HTC_IME settings or phone settings? I don't find anything like that :/

[Q] Does anyone here know about Smart search?

I'm using TBFusion rom now.
I know Russian, Tiwanese are supported Smart Search.
But not korean.
Korean stock rom(froyo) was supported this.
so I decompiled HTCDialer.apk
and I noticed that It contained Korean Smart Search Function.
I fixed one file(value-ko/style.xml - it just copy).
then Dial expressed Korean alphabet.
But not works Korean. It still works English.
I think It is connected with some java file.
but i don't know which file is.
Does anyone know about this?

[Q] Handwriting recognition for Ex-Yugoslavian languages

I have searched for this on the internet but can't find any useful info.
Since one week I'm proud owner of Note 2. It's a fantastic phone. There is just one rather big problem I'm having with this phone.
I have a stock phone and I would like to use handwriting recognition for different languages. I have added and updated English, Dutch and Croatian. It is possible for me to write with S pen when I select English or Dutch. But when I select Croatian, the handwriting option in the menu disappears and I can only choose to use on-screen keyboard or speak-to-text recognition.
By the way. I need to use handwriting recognition for writing: SMS / Whattsapp / E-mail mainly.
I really need Note 2 to be able to write text in any Ex-Yugoslavian language (Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian), preferably Bosnian or Croatian. Does anyone know if a solution exists for this problem?? It would help me very much to use my phone to it's full extent.
One maybe important piece of information. My phone is an international GT-7100 version.
Tried:
- So you just know when I try to write serbo-croatian, with English or Dutch selected, the phone just tries to change the words to English or Dutch. So this is not a workable solution...
Bump!
I would like to know this too... Writing in english is perfect on this phone. But most of my sms i send in Serbian (or serbo-croatian, whatever you like)..
@OP : pozdrav tebra
I have the same issue with Lithuanian language. However I have checked on other phone with exact same software version and settings and it had the functionality. No idea what Im missing - any help appreciated.
