Help Auto-correct not working with voice dictation

Hi guys,

I've been searching all morning for an answer to this and getting nowhere.

Auto-correct is not working when I'm using voice dictation. For the most part I can handle this, but the part that's killing me is the lower case letters. Auto-capitalisation of the first letter of any sentence is fine, but after that I'm on my own. The annoying part is "I". "I'm" is always "i'm", "I" is always "i", "I'd" is always "i'd".

I'm a writer, so just putting up with the informal punctuation isn't ideal.

It happens in all apps (messaging, email, browsers, etc).

I've tried adding my own entries to the personal dictionary, installing Google Keyboard - nothing is working. I can't download Nuance's Dragon dictation software because it's not available in Australia.

I'm using an LG G2 running Android 4.2.2.

Am I the only one experiencing this issue? Does auto-capitalisation of "I" work for you guys?

Thanks,
Wes
