[Q] Trophy ROM and available keyboard languages - Trophy General

I have a Trophy which has received the Nodo update via Zune. It is a SIM-free version, so has no carrier branding. Since I have had the phone, I have been unable to select UK English as a keyboard language - I have German, Italian, Spanish, the three French choices and English (US), but no English (UK). This causes problems with auto-correct and spelling.
I am wondering if this can be fixed by flashing an appropriate ROM. At present I have 1.20.401.00 (FW 2250.09.12000.401). Previously I had flashed the 7389 HTC Europe ROM - that did not enable any additional languages.
Incidentally, I did raise this as a fault with HTC - their response was to return the phone for service but they could not confirm whether this was a general fault or even if returning the phone would mean I would get it back fixed. As it would mean days without a phone I didn't bother to take up their offer because they couldn't guarantee me a fix.

how to change the language

Morning, I recently purchased a touch2 from Jordan and everything was in English. Well the other day my son got a hold of the pohne and installed a application that turned almost everything to Arabic. Now, I have NO technical know how when it comes to phones. I keep hearing that i can go in the registry and change it back to english. Do any of you guys know how to do that?
Ps. I tried the hard reset numerous times and it's still in Arabic. Also, I need step by step instructions...Thanks
I have the same problem. I have just bought the phone from the US and the interface language is in Chinese . I want to change it to English.
My phone was in polish loc. and after hard reset i changed loc. in to slovak

To change the language you have to do Hard Reset. After the first run and customize you have to restart the phone.
Then you can change the language.

Honestly - is this really possible? I thought changing the language on any windows mobile phone always needs to flash the ROM, and maybe even need to unlock in some way (hard spl or whatever)...
Basically, if I could really change the language to english, I might be thinking to buy two of those Touch2 here in taiwan for my GF and me... but I can't read chinese, so changing to english would be necessary.
On the other hand, with the ROMs I saw there was no traditional chinese version, just "WWE Asia"... this kinda sounds like there are more languages inside there... hmmm... lets see, I'm off to a HTC store to test this
Yoc can try to install Sunnysoft Interwrite to change a language.
If you chave Sunnysoft Interwrite try to change language in start/settings/system/sunnysoft interwrite.
In home page of this program you can select language without HR, only SR.

I know this is a very late answer within this thread, but yes, that's how it seems to work. For example, I have a Touch Diamond purchased in Slovakia, it is the WWE version. After the first power on, it made me pick between 6 languages: English, Slovak, Czech, Hungarian, Polish, Romanian. Once the language is picked, it will update all the system files, and you cannot change the language again.
But if you do a hard reset (like I did today) everything is wiped and the phone will boot just like it did the first time - going through all the initial configuration, etc. And it will allow you to select the OS language again.
Now, I don't know what languages may be included with phones sold in Asia. Above is just to give you an idea how the localization stuff worked on my Diamond.

By the way, no, there is no way to change the language with WWE ASIA or also the traditional chinese HK version. You can hard reset as often as you want, no menu pops up.
So I guess that's a special feature of some select ROMs, like the one for the mentioned middle/east european languages.
But now with HardSPL we can at least flash all ROMs that are available, so I got my Touch2 from the store in Taiwan already flashed with WWE and HardSPL. Now I changed to WWE ASIA and that's pretty good already
In a nutshell: Changing languages (with a few exceptions) requires HardSPL and flashing a ROM.
There is no way on ASIA ROM cause its basicly not WWE, but Asia ROM. HTC has many ROMs with specific language in them.

You are fully correct....changing language is for a selected number of Rom's. Since quite some people (incl myself) like this idea have asked some Rom cookers to built this feature as standard eg. have dual language options. Sofar unfortunately no reaction.....
So I think basically it is possible but not available. If more people ask for it.....it will happen someday either via HTC or XDA.

Locale settings

I bought my HTC Legend online but I discovered it was built for the Czech Rep. but Australia, so when I set Language I don't see any for English (Australia).
So should I be worried about this? and what effect does say English (Poland) have on Android apps etc..
Should I try and fix this using a custom ROM or stick with the Stock ROM.

[Q] Czech Language for HTC HD Mini And ,Poland,Romania,EN,Slovak language

Instalation manual:
1.instal cab. opencz_settings.......
2.instal cab. htc_proton_wm...
3.restart phone
4.Selection language
5.instal language
what languages does it contain, please?
already I don't know exactly
Czech,Poland,Romania,EN,Slovak
Are you sure that this is working ?
yes yes on 100%. personally use.
CZ language is perfect but i have problem ...I canĀ“t send MMS after patched
no problem language czech.good seting mms ?
FYI every HD mini ever being sold in Czech Republic already contains Czech language by default (unless bought in other country), theres no reason to do this harakirri, simply choose Czech language instead of English by first time HTC Sense setup, same goes for whole eastern Europe, Poland, Slovak, Hungarian, Slovenian etc etc. If you bought the phone and it already was preinstalled in english, simply run the Sense setup again and choose whatever language u want, its not a matter of phone being localized or not but a matter of HTC Sense being localized. I've sold hundrets of these phones and every single piece had it.
I've just installed PL, works fine, thanks. However I've noticed few bugs. Would you mind giving suggestion how can I edit PL file and correct it? I'd appreciate it. thanks a lot.

hi ,been looking for this ever since i bought my HD MINI works just fine in RO language .Great job ,keep it up thankyou kalros

French language on HTC Surround with AT&T

Hi,
I'm from Belgium, and I recently won a Surround. The problem is that English isn't my mother language (And sorry for any language mistake, I'm trying to do my best ) and I can't change the language to French.
Well I read a lot about debranding or simply install a new ROM but I don't really know the difference between those two thing.
What is the best way to get french language on my phone (and btw french vocal recognition)
I saw ... this ... and ... this ...
What is the better way to get french language on my phone?
What about the future update?
Is it risky or not?
About my WP7: HTC Surround / HTC T8788, Carrier: AT&T. If you want any other information just ask
Thank a lot (And sorry for the grammar or spelling)
Is there anyone who can help me?

Returning to stock for warranty purpose and language selection.

Here is something you should take notice of in case you plan to return your rooted phone to stock for warranty purpose or if you plan to sell it.
If you have changed your CID to Supercid (11111111) during the S-Off and rooting process you have to change back to whatever CID your phone was delivered with. For example for nordic version it would be HTC_Y13. This will enable you to select any nordic language upon first set up or in language selection. If you select WWE (HTC_001) you will only be able to select english languages (mayby italian, french and spanish as well) during setup and will need to use for example MoreLocale2 from the market to change to your language and region.
I learned that the hard way and hopefully this will be of some help to others.
