I'm about to buy an HTC Wildfire.
It is not available in my country, but I found an on-line store who ships the phone at a good price, however, it has written the following warning: "Software in Spanish".
Does Android allow you to choose the language as any other phone OS (except WM) or is it pinned down to one language as the Windows Mobile handsets?
No idea anyone?
Yes you can change the display language. Well you can on my UK T-Mobile one.

If it's not bothering too much, can you check if it has "Portuguese" or "Português" on the list?
At least I'll know if I can order one from the UK.
Here you go http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c344/cerbera1971/DSCF3392.jpg
Thank you!
yeah, but isn't that the locale? where it changes just the date, currency and stuff like that?
Does it change all the menu's language? A complete language change?
thanks
There are missing some languages in stock rom, but you can find a lot in CM7. In my case, neither of stock and CM7 has it. I'm looking for a Persian rom.

I am looking to purchase the HTC HD. Being that I live in Canada there are no too many ways of getting this phone ( that i know of anyways). I have found a site that sells it for what i believe is to be a reasonable price. The only problem is that it is a french version. I was wondering if i could change the language to english? i saw that there was a rom or something in another section of this forum but being as i have no technical knowledge of any of this i would like to make sure i can change it before i make this purcahse. Another question i have is if i am able to change the language, will the device work perfectly as if it were an english deivce to begin with or could there be some bugs or problems and is this an easy process to do? I'd appreciate any help Thanks. This is the link to the site http://www.expansys.ca/p.aspx?i=173661.
Anyone able to help?
I would need that info too.
The only difference is that I would like to purchase the Touch HD in Italy and then change the language to English.
A WindowsMobile device does not offer the option of changing the language on the go, like you know it from standard mobile phones. The ROM (operating system) includes one language, so in order to change it one needs to change the ROM. But you will loose your warranty in the process. But each HTC distributor on a country level also stocks the English (called WWE) version for each device, the key is to get your shop to order it for you. In Canada, if there is an official French version, there must also be an English one.

Bulgarian ROM does not exist in nature. But I can make it. The truth is it takes a lot of my time. You will have all the resources at hand to translate.
I'm willing to try it in my spare time. But i'll need help with technical part.
I will be quite grateful even for a keyboard solution only.
I was thinking of spending some time how to make it, but a major issue is the number of the characters and how they fit conveniently is the touch keyboard.
There is a Russian version of Cyrillic keyboard that needs some tweaks but is done really well and looks great.
I also have some feeling that somewhere I met Diamond in Bulgarian. I guess it will be easy to borrow parts of the ROM from there.
I am willing to contribute with whatever I can. Let us see if we can get traction here.

It is early for whole ROM, but there is Bulgarian Manila3.
Just one corection! There IS Bulgarian ROM! I bought my HD with It. The only problem is that I flashed my HD 4 hours after I got it and I didn't dump the original ROM! Manila and most of the OS were in Bulgarian and there was a good BG keyboard just like the HTC one.

I couldn't find anywhere Bulgarian ROM. May be it's just localization like one from Sunnysoft.
Where from you bought HD with Bulgarian?
I bought mine from 2be 1 month ago. I don't know if it's just localization or not but Manila, menus, keyboard, and many of the programs were in bulgarian.

2be can flash back stock ROM with BG, if they don't want you can go to Oconnect. - they will.
Cleaned this thread up a bit. Please keep it on topic and abide by forum rules by using English Language

So after all is there any bulgarian orm to be used as a base atleast ?
Honestly i dont know WHY you need a Bulgarian ROM? for me and many other peoles is enought if we have Bulgarian Support in the Keyboard and you can do this easy with the Finger Keyboard witch is FREE software
Another one that is Super cool but is not free is Resco Keyboard PRO..
Excusme but if all the ROM is translated in Bulgarian/Cirilic i think will not look good and on the same time will be a bit confused because some technical words in English cannot be translated corectly on Bulgarian or at least will look FUNNY.
From the 1st time when i start to use Cell Phone befor alot of years i never asked my phone even to have Bulgarian Menu.. because they often translate it so FUNNY and Confused that is much more better to use it with English Menu, At least you dont need to be a English Professor to understand and to be able to work without problem with the WWE ROM
Yes it will be just like russian ?! But its nicer when you see it in you native language. Espacialy when Everything around us is in Latin and some of our children have started to write in their notebook at school in "Shliokavica"(Phonetical type of expression with latin letters) and after all whe have to be proud with the cyrillic
Hi,
Can someone who owns a HTC HD2 please check if this works:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401966
In case this works that would make my life until there is HARDSPL available easier...(ordered NL version)

Works fine bro..
Works great for Czech language.
Great news!! I think that this will make some gents very happy until HARDSPL is out (me included)
Can someone add this to the LEO wiki?
my2$
But don't you loose all notifications (sms,...)?
It only changes the main screen for me. The rest is still in it's original language.
Czech works gr8, but we need to find out which manila is responsible for date format again... Dont like čt XI 12...

Which language did you try?
From Dutch (# 413) to English (# 409)
I think it should work well, because some cooked HD ROMs with M2.5 can do.
Does anyone know, or can anyone test if this trick will allow me to turn a chinese language hd2 into english. The original diamond forum post says yes, but it doesnt indicate whether they turned an english one into chinese or vice versa.

Did you also try the other English country codes?
No, but will try later today.
Works almost perfect. Some things are not translated, but in general, it's great
Thanks a million
PS: I tried with english UK, and didn't translate all! But then I tried english US and translated more text!!!

First I used 809 (UK) and, for example, the Settings page was with the IDs and not the description (e.g. IDS_).
Now I've 409 (US) and it's better. The options are not all covered, but it's much better than the 809. Under the Start menu, there are few modifications, but not many.

But what do you mean with "main screen"? The first tab of sense? Or all sense? Because on me, sense is "translated", not all, but almost!
I meant sense.
Sorry for the confusion.

Well, the tweak is only for the sense.
I was wondering where I can find a rom with both English and Chinese languages included. Or even an English rom with Chinese viewing and handwriting input support.
Most other phones have the ability to change the system language anytime I want, but the HTC HD2 only come in one language and one language only. So if anyone knows where I can find something like, please do share =)

Dual main language for Windows Mobile phones certainly sounds like a nice idea, haven´t seen this either...
But, there seem to be quite a few custom ROMs offering you English as main language and with Chinese support...
Just search the ROM thread here in the forum, you will find this, this, this, and maybe even this...
Hi all,
Proud owner of an unlocked Dell Venue Pro 16GB here. I love the look of the Chinese language in Windows Phone 7, and I'd like to give it a try, however the phone only includes English (US), and Mango was supposed to add Asian Language features. Can someone help me activate them?
Thanks,
