SGS system language - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hi to all!
I'm kinda new here but looking arround for a while and have a question
After upgrading my SGS to 2.3.3 (Belgian release, updated via KIES and still original) I lost the Cyrillic language (Russian) in the phone system for the text input. I tryed some custom keyboards from the market but because this language is out of my system these don't work too.
Is there some way to get the Cyrillic language back into my phone's system white out using a custom rom because I would like to keep my device original.

Unless you flash a firmware which contains the system language, the simple answer is no. Sorry

I have installed the Handsent SMS app. together with the Gingerbread Keybord from the market and problem solved!
Thanks for the tip anyway!

god...didnt u noticed it from the name of the rom itself; before u flash?
yes, I'm a troll
What he means, is that it's a Turkish ROM, so it probably won't have any chinese fonts in there. Until there are official 1.61 ROMs available, you're not gonna have 1.61 with Chinese. (Unless there's a fix that I haven't imagined)
not sure about smsses, but you can install a chinese font. Like the ricky chinese support. With that i can view chinese in file explorer and the htc audio player. Look @ screenshot.
try some fonts files like .cab . you can find it by google with keywords yahei for wm6, good luck
Thanks. Will try it out. Appreciate it

Swype: making it "thinner"

I purchased in Singapore a Samsung Tablet P1000
Froyo 2.2
current version: PDA: JK2
Phone: JJ2
CSC: JJ2
It has built-in swype, version 2.5.45.11222
I have titanium Backup pro and also I have rooted my tab
1.
Is there a way to:
- unistall malaysia, indonesia, vietnam, Korean languages?
2.
Is it possible to
- install italian language?
3.
Is it possible to upgrade to the latest version (with voice recognition and input), which is 2.30? How to do?
Thanks a lot!
Saulo
I have to say that I browse the market, for swype, but found nothing which could help.
I also googled extensively here, on xda-developers, and on the web...
Any hints or suggestions are highly appreciated!
Saulo
You need to go to swyps site to download it but they say do not if your device has is installed ootb

Dear BrillDoctor
1. You mean www.swype.com, right? not www.swyps.com (this site is not existing)
2. I have checked: there is NO download area in www.swype.com...
Even if unistall (using Titanium Backup) my swype 2.5 version, I doubt I can download the proper version.
Any other hints?
Thanks a lot!
You will have to use the swype app that came with your tab.You will not be able do download it from the market, and even if you had a beta version ( like I do) you will not be able to install it because it will not support the screen resolution of the tab. I tried myself and had to reflash the FW in order to get Swype back ( I had deleted the OEM version with titanium backup.
You will need to flash your tab with a european Rom, my suggestion is to flash JJ4 and then JK5, but do your homework before flashing anything.
Thanks Pakalt
My concerns are:
1. The European swype will have many languages, including Italian, But then I would like to install CHINESE (which I do use daily)...so the problem will be:
- how to install new languages on EUROPEAN ROM?
2. can you please feedback whether the EUROPEAN ROM is 2.9 version? (with voice input)?
3. European ROM: can you post me a link to download with instructions?
my phone is rooted, so I guess I can do the upgrade>
4. Why you have unistalled with Titanium Backup? Why not use the "freeze application" function? So you could revert the stock built-in swype...right?
5. Will European ROMS be bootload LOCKED as it is rumored here in Asia?
Thanks for your useful insight!
Saulo
Same problem here on JME.. I came from JM5 and everything was fine, now I got this tiny swype keyboard wich is kinda useless.. Wish I have saved the swype.apk installation file.. If anyone is on PJX or JMK, could u please update ur swype.apk somewhere?? if not allowed, just pm me, thanks...
Ciao Segnale
I do have swype 2.5.11.222 and it comes with a very good swype.
If you want I can upload or PM to you, but you need to tell me how to do (procedure).
My phone is rooted.
Thanks

Oh Cool bro. Simply u need to have Root Explorer or I think Astro should do the job too, then all u have to do is copy the file /system/app/Swype.apk into another folder of ur Gtab, then mount the Gtab to ur computer and upload it somewhere... PM me the link in order to avoid any complaints
Grazie ...
Ciao
Btw just realized u have got a different problem than mine.. Anyways, I don't care about not having Italian language installed, as long there's english US or UK..
However, the latest euro firmwares for the GTAB has got boot loader locked, but rotohammer has done a great job by cleaning the bootloader, I dunno what exactly he did though, probs he reverted the new bootloader with the old one.
Although I am not sure if Asian firmwares has got the same locked bootloader, you should ask this on the development section .
Ciao segnale.
I will do as you ask. I have astro.
Please be aware that my swype does NOT include Italian language!
So you need to add Italian by yourself (and if you know how to do I will be very grateful.
Thanks

I have swype 2.10.52.13753 , and I can confirm that has the Italian AND the chinese language. NO Voice input.
You can refer to this thread for flashing your tab to JJ4>JK5 . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847273 JK5 is a good stable ROM , but if you want to get the latest ( with NO bootoader upgrade and trouble , refer to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894763
I do have the "tiny swype" when in landscape mode, but I frankly do not thing it's a problem, I believe that it's even better. The whole concept of swype is to swype across the keyboard, why would you want to swype a longer path when in landscape mode. Sure it's better to have a larger keyboard when you hit single buttons, but then you DO NOT need a swype keyboard for that.
P_
Ok I been able to mount the factoryfs.rfs image of the JMK5 fw and copird the swype.apk into my GTAB now running on JME, and once it was installed the swype keyboard started crashing until I shut it down, and once I turned it back on the old swype keyboard just installed was been replaced with the current new one of JME.
Help please
Hi Segnale
I sent you a PM, as per your instruction.
With swype 2.5
Please check.
Thanks

Dear Pakal.
Yes tiny swype (small-size) in landscape mode I also believe is much better than large size! Easier to swype.
I wish to have a try to your ROM which includes swype built-in 2.10 with Italian + US + Chinese Languages.
Can you please confirm:
1. swype is builtin in your ROM. Right? Or did you download later?
2. which one is exactly your ROM? And where to download it?
BTW If bootloader is frozen is NOT a big issue to me, since once I got swype (built-in) I will be quite satisfied.
Thanks a lot!
Saulo
I have downloaded swype version 2.10.xxx
My phone is rooted, I have tried to upgrade from 2.5 to 2.10
Results: application did NOT install...
I have tried with
Root Explorer
Astro explorer
2. i also tried to:
"frozen" swype 2.5 (with Titanium Backup Pro) and then try to launch swype 2.10 as a new application, NOT upgrade.
What am I missing?
Thanks and waiting

If I flash my singapore-bought galaxy tab with an european version, will then, in future, KIES be able to connect to it?
2.
If yes, will then subsequent updates and upgrades be available on KIES? Which ones? The Europen upgrades? Or the singaporean ones?
Thanks a lot!
Saulo
I do not have the answer to yr question because I do not use kies. But the point is that you will be waaay more up-to-date reading this forum than waiting for kies to suggest you a firmware upgrade !!! This what this community is all about. Be sure that an 'official' update will be out way later than a 'leaked' version on this forum.

[Q] So I installed custom ROM..

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?
Kristian
Norway
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

Just flash without CSC (cache.rfs) -> no branding at all. AFAIK the pre-configured APNs are in there also, so you'll have to configure those manually, even if you didn't before.

You just tick one package option.
New .ops file you can find at the bottom of samfirmwares page.

I already have jh7 installed. will it still work if i reflash it without csc? apns are for acces point names? if they are i don't need them since they are from south africa operators and i use mainly wifi. i think that with the apps the operator installed in the firmware the memory is drasticly reduced so i can install only 4-5 apps then i get the low memory message.
p.s. does anyone know why the low battery sound isn't present?? i just get the on screen message in wich it tells me i have under 15% left but no message tone whatsoever. just shuts down and never tells me
