i made a bech32 key with vanitysearch and imported the wif into bitcoin-qt 0.18.0 but it ends up giving me the old style with the 1 prefix. i have bech32 enabled as default in the options; if i let the wallet generate a random key for me it is bech32. so how to import a key as bech32 ?

Try this guide: [GUIDE] Importing Electrum Segwit Private Key Into Bitcoin Core (And Vice Versa)

I just try it but it does not work, i try using electrum 3.3.6 and i got this responds back Traceback (most recent call last):

AFAIK this will only work with Electrum.
Have you tried this prefix method with Bitcoin-qt or Bitcoin Core?

I haven't tried it yet with Bitcoin-qt or Bitcoin Core because i don't use it
