[Q] So I installed custom ROM.. - Galaxy Tab General

So I installed a Custom Rom, but now I cant find my language on the swype-settings. Is it any way to install this again?

I don't think so.
/Feras - Galaxy Tab

Some developers leave that stuff out because the file space is a little tight. What rom is this, as a warning to others needing that language?

Go to the market and see if the more locale app will give you your language.

I have the same issue. I tried both roto-jmi and r1 modaco custom and i lost my original input methods. More locale seems to only allow me to change the os language but it does not allow me to change the input language.
It would be extremely helpful if someone could chime in and help identify the language input packages.

I flashed JMG, and JMI, but went back to JME v.4 for the languages. With previous phones I have removed the swype language locale from the old rom and moved it into the new rom. I searched xda for a while until I found out how.
You can get a keyboard app from the market, maybe you can get your preferred language.

Thx for the info. If you happend across that thread would you mind sending the link my way. Otherwise it looks like I need to spend more time digging.
Cheers

Custom Locale with AdvancedLauncher

Hi fellow xda users, this is my first question ever on xda.
As I'm running ROM of CyanogenMod v4.2.5 for the HTC Magic (PVT32B) I also installed HTC_IME.
And only the English dictionary was available for the HTC_IME keyboard.
I couldn't find a way to add other language dictionaries as they were actually already installed but on default disabled on a ROM.
I figured out to apply "nl" to Custom Locale to have a Dutch dictionary, that worked all fine. But it also effects language on some applications like AdvancedLauncher. A lot is mixed up with Dutch and English language, I know this isn't a big deal but I like things clean.
So is there a HTC_IME which includes all languages in the list?
Thanks in advance.
Nobody has a solution?

I have not run into any Korean language related developers on this xda forums yet.
I was able to install and run Korean language with help from some of Korean HD2 users group forum,
but that was when I had Touch Pro 2 phone.
Now, I bought HD2 last week and have been trying to Koreanized(한글화) my HD2 with no success.
NO, I take it back. I was 75% successful on HD2 compares to Touch Pro 2.
I was using HD2 method on The Touch Pro 2 and got 99% working.
Only a few menu items are not in Korean and input method was excellent in both Korean and English.
I've posted results of Touch Pro 2 on this link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644091
Now, with my new HD2, most of bottom menus are unreadable (small squares) and input methods locks up in Korean and can't type English.
I've posted problems and only recomendations so far is to soft reset up to 3 times. I have soft reset many times. Still NO GO.
PHP:
This is one of Korean HD2 forum.http://www.mymits.net/zboard/zboard....page=2&no=5757
Perhaps, You'll have a better luck. (Good Luck )
Please post with any results you'll get. It would be greatly useful to everyone whom seeks for Koreanized (is this a word? )
How to install Korean language on HD2
Hi All,
I was gonna edit prior post, then it may get messy so here is another post.
I've tried installing Korean language on my HD2 for couple of days and finally made it happen. WooHoo
I was having troubles because I tried staying with roms I liked. Then I finally gave up and installed "Lost in Asia" rom.
The Lost in Asia rom is already multi-language (Eng. and Chinese). Therefore (I believe) it had necessary files to accept Korean installation.
After the installation of rom Lost in Asia, I've installed 1 to 6 of MyMits Korean installation steps then I've installed Moa key cab and WALA. All main menus are changed to Korean.
Let me see if I can help you guys out...I'm Korean myself and had been trying to install Korean language support on my hd2 t-mo US for awhile now. Now...I'm not sure exactly what you wanted...the ability to read Korean font and text in Korean font? Or...like the previous poster, are you trying to change the entire UI (menu's, etc) on your hd2 to complete Korean?
If that's the case you will probably have to install the lost in asia rom...I'm almost positive with other rom versions or stock US rom's it's just not possible, but don't quote me on that.
If you want the ability to read Korean font and message (type in Korean) go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=646728
Follow those steps...download and install the Korean font .cab => than install the moakey .cab
Than go into start menu -> settings -> personal -> input settings and change it to moakey. You can change the settings on moakey to your tastes as well.
Don't forget you can hold down the keyboard icon when typing to open up the message options screen and you can switch back and forth between the different message input methods on the fly.
I'm personally using the newest version of Energyrom April 1st, hspl2, T-Mo US w/ no issues.
One other thing to note, you can definitely read Korean fonts now...but when you put mp3's etc into media player or core player (whatever you use) alot of the Korean titles won't display properly...it's not because the K-language support isn't working, it's just that those programs need separate K-language support.
Hope this helps =_) 좋은 하루~!!
thnks all!!!!

[Q] Swype Hungarian Language

Hi,
I have upgraded the ROM on my SGS2 to Cognition S2 v1.15 (from v 1.08) (many thanks designgears), and Hungarian language has disappeared from Swype.
How can I get it back? Is there a file which I have to copy over from the previous version?
Cheers,
Endre
Remember me here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169939&page=5
Maybe I can help you.
Thanks for your help.
I've read through that thread, and I will try to change my apk following your instructions.
What does prevent us to add a new language? Why do we have to change an unused one? Where does Swype store the list of available languages?
I use what it works. It works for you? I suggest to post the answer in the thread that I told you.
I have not changed it yet. My phone (not overclocked) keeps resetting itself randomly so I will bring it back to the shop hoping they will change it.

[Q] Is there any guide for changing the language of the ROM??

Hope flash english to chinese.Anyone can offer a guide about how to do this?
Thanks in advance!

It's quite easy, but it depends on the ROM you are using. Some ROMs support specific languages (locales). To change the locale go to phone's "Settings" app. Tap on "Locale and text" entry and then tap on "Select locale" entry. Select your desired locale and reboot the device.
Sadly I have not seen Chinese locale in SG3 ROMs (probably because I was never looking for it). There is Korean locale in most of SG3 ROMs. Try flashing a couple of stock ROMs to see if they have Chinese locale or wait if someone replies which ROM is he using to get Chinese locale...

Thank you all the same……
Maybe my description is not clear enough ,I mean how to make the ROM support chinese by modifing some files of the ROM.
My english is not good enough,hope you can understand……
clarkkov said:
Oh, that's another matter...This would include translation of the corresponding files in the framework, and the OS itself. All .apk(s) need to be translated, which considers decompiling and the recompiling the whole .apk, hunting down the GUI .xml(s), adding the translation and so on...Isn't there Chinese Android translation/localization?
...and I forgot one very important thing, the Chinese fonts and grammar! This can cause many compatibility issues. As I understand, Chinese characters cannot be translated respectively from Alphabetical characters. This would involve coding/writing a new/separate module for decoding and encoding Chinese characters. If Chinese is similar to Korean, this is the place to start. Word prediction and autocerrect software would have to be written also - for the keyboard, new keyboard layout etc...A lot of work (assuming there is no Chinese localization for Android).

Thx a lot.
There are people who do the translation work on the Internet.But they are not able to turn every ROM to chinese version,especially when i find a ROM which i like from xda. I think i should try to find out how they do the work and learn it……

[Q] Custom ROM from stock, just add language

Hi,
Can someone point me to procedure or guide how to take stock rom fromthe unit and just addnadditional interface language.
Thanx,
DiNo
Well, you are still looking?
Ok, I popped open a rom, and what I saw, was in the /system/usr/xt9/databases/ldb, were ldb files in multiple languages. (LanguageDataBase)
My guess, is that this is part of the multi-system language based on region.
So my guess, is that if you find a rom (any rom), that contains your regional language, you should be able to copy that Ldb file, into the custom rom zip, and let it re-compress the zip file, then try flashing it. This may give you the language support you are looking for.
It's a guess for me, but, it may work. Maybe something else is needed.
I have a feeling, finding a custom rom in Croatian, will be extremely difficult. So, sometimes, you have to do it yourself. Find your regional HC 3.2, and unzip it, and look inside.
Hi,
Thanks for reply.
I found out that motorola Xoom latest stock rom has Croatian language built in.
Would it work to copy ldb file from it or there will be issues since it is for another device ?
Thanks for tutoring but this are my first steps

Usually, we don't copy files from a rom other than acer. Not without doing a recovery backup first.
It's possible you will be ok. I think at the most, it will force close, or reboot. Or, it may work. I would be interested to know.
Also, you may want to take a look around and see if there are other files that may be linked to language. I was just lucky finding what I found.
I guess it will all depend on if the zoom ldb uses the exact same format as the Acer roms. 50/50 chance.
Seems I have found additional info on changing to a different language. Hope you want to learn a little programming
