Hi there,
I am from a Spanish speaking country, and live in France. My N4 is set in French, because in that way I can get the news of the region (in that weather & news app), and all the country-specific apps works well. Whilst I like having everything in French, I have the problem that my accent is quite strong, and Google do not understand what I say. However, I can set the speech recognition to Spanish, and it works very well... but then Google Now do not understand the order I give to him. For example, to set the alarm at 7am, I would say "poner la alarma a las 7", which Google writes perfectly fine, but it is expecting the orders to be given in French. I have tried setting my phone in Spanish, and it works like a charm, but then Weather and News does not give me the news from France any more.
Is there any way to have the phone in French, but Google Now in Spanish?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Google Now -> Settings -> Voice -> change it to spanish

That's exactly what I have done. So, now it writes in Spanish the orders I give to it, but it doesn't execute the orders, it just search in google (because it is still expecting the orders to be done in the phone's language). In other words, that option only change the voice recognition, but not the language of Google Now.

Désolé mon ami, Orders given to google now only works in U.S english actually, Neither in European or asian Languages. you have to put English (US) as language to make it work.

Actually, that is not true. I can put my phone in French or Spanish, and Google Now in the same language (or just write the order in that language), and it will work. I can give to the phone orders in any of these languages.
What I want is just to change the language of Google Now so it can be different from that of the phone. But it doesn't seem to be possible.

Oh yeah nvm, I got confused with answers like siri :silly:
JanusDC is right! How can we change the Google Now Language without change the overall Phone Language?
I want it too

That would be a great thing!!!
We're able to change the input language to english, but if the system is in other language, Google Now can't show the results properly.
For instance, I live in Brazil and my phone language is in portuguese but I speak english, so when I use Google Now I can't ask "Do I need an umbrella today?" even if the input is set to english with the whole system in portuguese.
I have exactly the same problem. I would be very glad if someone finds a solution :/. Does anybody knows if they plan to make an update for this issue?
If you have Root, maybe editing the Localization of the App might work. I think Paranoid-ROM has this Feature, but "App Settings" for XPOSED Framework should do the Trick as well.

But the weather and news will be in the chosen language. If I use English, then I can use Google Now as I want, but Weather&News shows me US News :/

Actually not... I have my phone on English US everything and I say... "OK Jarvis, How's the weather for tonight" and It gives my location weather.
But, I remember that I asked something about Lima, and then asked about the weather and it gaved me the weather from Lima. It continues with the last thing you said somehow.
AAAAND yeahp the news there's nothing to use. Download the CNN app or use Google Currents instead
Please let me know how it goes!

I meant the News&Weather app (GenieWidget.apk). The news are not based on the location but the language, so if I put US English, I get news from USA.
I don't use Google Currents
Hey but now in 2018 there isn't any Google Now in the Settings screen of Android O. How can I change the Google Now speech detection to french.?
Here is how to change the Voice Input...
Settings > Language & Input > Voice Input - Then press the settings " star" and configure " offline speech recognition" and you can download another language if needed from there also. I hope this helps!
In the " text-to speech output" setting (also found in Language & Input in the settings) you can configure in which speech the phone/tablet should talk to you...

I tried it briefly, and it starts up in English, so no worries there, the only thing that isn't is certain buttons in the keyboard, like the return key.
@flzyup: Those themes on the site look really nice as well, what is the clock widget shown on there? it looks just like the HTC clock.
There is the englis language in this rom?
Since it's for Chinese, But the english language will also be kept in my rom. Screenshots are available also in Chinese Words, sorry that i didn't have time to upload english style shots, you can goto my post to have a look: http://ligux.com/?p=1191

Thanks for your testing. Because of i only release in our region, i've remove the LatineIME.apk from my rom and add the official Google PinYin(For Chinese) in it. And PinYin IME from Google has different keyboard layout compare with LatinIME. Next time i'll release a WWE version and add LatinIME in it.
The widget you asked about is a product named:moji tianqi (moji weather) which is developed by a Chinese company for free. You can self-make themes and add to it. You can search "moji" in market, the name is "墨迹天气" in Chinese, This app has english translation, so you can use it. If you like the skin of the widget, i'll ask my parterner who make the skin to give you a copy.
Hey dude, seems like you have done a great job! cheers!!
and is it better to flash your rom directly or wait till the WWE version is realeased?
and when are you planning to post the english version?
and guys, is this rom better (faster, fancier and battery saving) than floyo's latest rom?
@flyzup Okay I know it's a bit off-topic but how do you Chinese guys write both Chinese and English with the same keyboard?
Install Google Pinyin IME from the Market and you'll see how.

It has a key to switch between Chinese and English, you can input english words easily through the IME. As you know, English characters are also common used in China and other Chinese-speaking regions. So english input is neccessary for us too

Hello, I found navigation in your site (ligux.ORG) very difficult and the sentences were not correctly translated. So can you post what that means, and the download links for you rom, I also saw the gingerbread look, but I don't know if it is only a theme or a full rom. so can you briefly describe them, it says some kinds of update_package, so explain it and can you post everything. pleasae....; I love your rom.
yday I got an LG E900 Optimus WP7 phone, brand new. Phone is not locked on any carrier, it has initial language set to german, I switched to English and everything seemed to work perfectly ....until I installed some free app from the LG marketplace.
The problem I have is that when I install lets say "Weather & Clock" app in application list it shows as "Wetter & Uhrzeit". when I start it everything in it is english, but the name of the app itself is in german. I did try with other as well, same thing happens....
I think there must be some setting within the phone that needs to be changed, but it is none of the ones available by default (since all of those are set to english atm)
I did reset the phone to factory settings, still no help...
Can anyone help pls?
Couple of german words its not a problem...
^ Sounds like a Steve Jobs quote. "Big deal, get over it. Sent from my iPhone".
I have noticed other language related issues. If Spanish, Traditional Sort is selected for search, pressing the search button takes you to the Bing website, whereas Spanish, International Sort is chosen, the search button performs as it should (voice search still defaults to English for some reason).
I don't know if these two things are related, but they could be. My Spanish applications never show up in Spanish, as my system is in English.
Did you change everything in Settings -> region&language (Display language, Region format, System locale and Browser & search lang.) to english ??
I have an unbranded Optimus 7 ordered from Germany, set to English but with both German and English keyboards installed. I'm sure I sure the same issue when I installed the Weather and Clock app but it's fine now and hasn't ever repeated showing the name in German.

I have the exact same problem... and the other app that this happen sto is the Today application which shows up as "heute"...
What do we do to resolve this?
Just installed the Personal Argentina Rom and the same is happening, but it's in Spanish.
There must be a registry trick to fix this. Anyone have any ideas?
Hey,
I just set my phone to English to use Google Now but if i use Google maps navigation it will say every thing in English
it sounds horrible hearing the dutch called streets in English, so some one knows how to chance it to a Dutch voice?
(or other langues so i can try in dutch?)
I already search the forum and came out on a topic for the gallaxy s3 but it won't work.

Yup, you need to install more voices. This is referred to as a TTS (Text To Speech) library.. and the better ones will have voices in many languages and both genders.
So install for example Ivona TTS or SVOX Pro TTS - one of those should have a Dutch voice. Then set your preferences in the Android Settings > General > Language and Input > Text-to-speech options menu. And /or the associated app menu.
..
when i installed this app i just got the voice i download from the internet and put to the APK of Maps files manual.
So it is weird but it works thanks!
I just got this phone.
In the initial setup menu, I can choose keyboard language of 'english UK' or 'english US'. But then the next screen is locale, and there is no england/greatbritain/unitedkingdom at all! no america/usa either! I put it on "st. kitts and nevis" cause that's english-speaking country at least, and phone is still in english, but this is kinda bizarre... any ideas if I can patch it in somehow?

Post some details about your ROM. In other way we are not able to help you.
As I recall the Xiaomi phones are not sold anywhere that English is the main language, ie UK and North America, so there is no English locale option, I think mine is on Algeria but it doesnt seem to really affect anything that I have noticed.
Follow this link and you will got the English ROM
There's no Ireland also.
Australia is also missing. I can only guess that the listed regions are where they have officially released their phones.
Hello everybody,
I'm currently running megapixel6p on a french device, with french system langage, and i would like to enable google assistant.
I'm aware that google assistant is only available in english and in german (for now), but i was wondering if it was possible making it work even though the device is in french : speak english with google assistant (and thus maybe google app in english too) but with a french interface. For now, in my goole app settings, it is said "google assistant is not available in your country" and i can see the settings, but they are greyed out.
I made it work on another device, under marshmallow with xposed : google assistant in english and the phone in french (that was "assistant enabler" i think). But now i'm on nougat and xposed isn't ready for nougat.
Google assistant is supposed to be released in France in sept 2017, and honestly if there is a way to get it before, I'm in !
I also saw this video of a guy who 's talking in french in google assistant
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT1nKMydI6s
Kinda strange, because Google affirmed it is not translated in french yet
Well, any advice will be welcome, and sorry for my english !
Guess i ll have to wait till september, or the next xposed for nougat

Heard from the french website kulturegeek that google assistant was in french for some lucky owners, since today. is there a way to force enabling GA ?
i installed the last google app (from apkmirror) and failed installing the google play services : but GA is still not working on my 6p, running the last PN (rooted with magisk)
Google said GA would be in french in sept 2017, but apparently it came out earlier than expected

GA work on some French's phone but not all I think that a fix can be possible. I'll try to change the build.prop to see if this can work. I hope that's no the Google server which select the devices where GA can work
