how to change the languages?

Hello,
sorry, I doesn`t find anything for my question with the search function.
My question is, how could I change the languages?
My problem is, that I get a HTC P4350 with french language, it is no provider locked. But I couldn´t flash the WM6 in german, only in french.
Ok, the keyboard is in french design (AZERTY), but I think, it must be possible to change the system languages, or?
Regards,
Thorsten

don't think wm6 will allow you to change language. to flash other firmware, you will have to unlock the sim+cid. your phone might still be locked?

HI,
the phone doesn´t have a simlock, if the phone has the cid lock - I doesn´t know.
If you would flash the german rom file, I get the error message 294.

Has anyone found a solution for this?
I have upgraded to WM6 Russina which was available from the HTC site.
I would like an English or Greek version of Windows Mobile 6.
How can I do this?

I was trying for 3 days to change mui files and translate and no posetiv result.
I have so meny times done hard restart and that drives me crazy now. So I give up/ se promised begining ow next year latvian language for x1.
by now the goal is to crack the cid or be able bypass it to flash new roms.

Only WWE rom's have english language. And with changing mui files you can't do anything, only loosing time. Wait for HardSPL and flashing WWE rom's will be the easiest thing you've ever done.

Hi, I would like to know how I can create a custom rom (Flash.DIO) so that I can modify Windows Startup files and decide on what software I want to have installed by default, etc...
When I applied the HP Rom Update at one stage, it modified my Rom so that every time I do a Hard Reset, it will put CustomizeEngine.lnk in the Windows startup folder and this will start auto installing software from the Extended rom which I am not interested in and then after the installation I am forced to do a soft reset (this is quite annoying).
If there is a way to fix this please explain.
Thanks heaps

Hello, my first post here.
The 6.1 manilla seems really good, but I'm from Sweden and want it in swedish language. English could work but swedish had been much better.
I've read the forum and i have a weak memory that I saw a thread with different languages, but now I can't find it. I thought I saw a swedish version, but maybe I'm wrong?

A swedish rom would be wonderful! I've been reading on some swedish forums also and there seems to be alot of people looking for a swedish rom.

HP iPAQ 614c
Hy!
I would like a Dutch ROM for HP iPAQ 614c
Thanks!

Hopefully someone will make one

Romanian one?

A multi-language rom would not be so hard to make, just provide a sample rom with multiple languages, or multiple roms in different languages with a same version of core. And that is the hard part. If anyone could prepare such material, there will be many heroes whom can cook the rom for all of you. Including me.

Swedish Rom wanted here to=)

Swedish ROM wold be nice!

Swedish ?
nobody that can fix Wm6.1 on Swedish?

i got like 50 hp 614's here
all from different country's with different languages.
if someone can tell me how to upload like, the dump of the rom
or the language itself, i will upload every different rom i got.
so if someone could tell me how to upload a ''whole'' rom
i'd be honored i work with apple, linux, ubuntu or windows,
but i think trying this via linux will be the best way ( srry im kinda new to this)
greets, im sure we can make a multilang rom for the 614.

Acer F1 (NeoTouch S200) Change language

Hello,
I have this phone but have a problem- how to set English display language. I read in this forum - i must find a English rom... or... i am not shure. Can u help me?
/sorry for my english/
Thanks a lot

you can not change the language in windows mobile, you have to use an English ROM.
unfortunately, Acer has not yet released ROM updates, nor are there custom ROMs available yet. But check back the forum regularly, there is one in the making.

oh...
Just wait... right?
Can i install only English language? or... just update something?!?

you need to flash a different ROM, if you want a different language, period.
a device can only contain a single language a time, so you need to install a different Windows Mobile (in form of a ROM image). Why haven't you bought an English device to begin with?

I bought it from ebay. There is no information to display language.

Just one last question- can i install ROM from other model phone?

no.
you need one specific for the neoTouch S200.

Did you try to change regional settings (start, settings, system, regional settings). I always had an english device but this maybe will help you so you can read english.
What language do you have?
While waiting for an english rom, you may install/try SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 which works fine on S200 and choose enlish as your language. This will help you alot. At least you will use your mobile decent.

Freco, thanks !!!!
I will check SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 ... and will wait for rom.
You are the man!!! thank you again!!!

You can change language... but its a little bit tricky...
You need mui files for language you want eg 0415 are for polish language then change some registry entries...I've made polish language for TG01 and the only problem are settings from Toshiba(they don't use mui files ;/)

Ok... how to change registry entries and... i will try, but if you have more time to explain to me...
thanks

Hi All!
2 days ago i bought S200 and now i have the same problem
It`s french WM and it's .....aaaah no comment :/
I need english language (or polish)
I will try install SPB maybe it helps me for a few days...
But if someone will find english WM for s200 please share somewhere...
Now, I have s200_1.002c.00_fr
maybe some one can find s200_1.002c.00_en somewhere...

First You must know how to hard reset Your phone with button combination (messing with registry entries can lead to the hangups or make your system unbotable) second so far i know changing language on french/german TG01 to the English made system unbotable(that was Toshiba Keyboard SIP problem) and didn't translate much of the system... i didn't seen anywhere english mui files so easier would be to translate language to Your native using mui files from rom with close build number with one installed on Your phone

Hi everyone!
First of, as first time poster I'd like to say thankx to everyone who maintains this site and everyone who contributes with everything, from they're kitchen's best meals to any crazy ideas, I've been taking advantage of that for last month or so
But for this one I've found no answer, so here goes:
Yesterday I bought an Acer S200 F1 neoTouch yada yada yada...
I live in Portugal, so it comes with portuguese version of WM 6,5 which is horribly translated, making me, therefore, prefer the english version. I've never actually seen one of these with english version for sale here.
So I went around fishing for a way to change the language, I downloaded the official english version rom update from Acer's website, extracted it, replaced the ACER_EUU.exe with the cracked one, and it flashed smoothly.
However, EVERY SINGLE TIME I turn on the phone it hangs up, sometimes on the WM logo, sometimes during network search (shortly after WM is loaded I guess). Then it reboots all by itself, and then it works sort of ok.
I think I've described the process quite extensively, obviously, either I'm doing something wrong, or this method is not even supposed to work.
So I flashed the portuguese version back to the phone using the exact same method as described above, only not with english rom of course, and it is back to working as it should... in awful badly translated and cropped portuguese.
Should anyone know a way to get around the hang-ups I get with the english version, I'd be so grateful!
Cheers!

Why don't you try one of the Rafyvitto's roms. They are english and good looking.

Indeed. I'm using v2.7-vanilla, no crashes to date.
But I'm kind of obsessive, and rafyvitto's roms althought working much like they should, they have stuff built in which I think have no business being there. In this vanilla 2.7, as an example, title bar makes no sense as WM already has it's own way of doing the same (I think) I'm a noob to WM, so this might be a complete nonsense. Then there are bugs, such as the keyboard not showing/hiding properly during a call (I have to tap the button as if double clicking, and the button's description displays a wrong message ("hide" when it's hidden, "show" when it's being shown already) and sd-card encryption can't be turned off.....
Small things which make my day a little worst
Still, I appreciate rafyvitto's work, as the possibility of choice he provides us with is priceless =)
EDIT: as of the release of the new official rom's from acer (EUU_Acer_S200_3.003b.00_EN_03.03.08_3.003.01_20100119.zip) I am able to change the language from portuguese to english without the hangups I mentioned earlier!

are there mui files for every part of the os? like settings, programs, clock, messaging etc?
would it be possible to take the mui files from a german rom rename them from mui.0407 to 0409 install a new english rom and replace the mui files with the german renamed ones?
of course with a programm that allow replacing rom files like resco explorer or total commander?
if so maybe i even could get some german htc manila mui files from originial htc leo rom and rename and replace the ones of the acer s200 leo roms to have a part german rom ?

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.
