Hi guys, I have a touch HD in English. However im currently in china and would need to have it read chinese characters.. Does any one know how to make it recognize the chinese characters?
THanks!
A good programme I've used for a long time is CE-Star from Mobem Technologies (http://www.mobem.com/products/CE-Star.php). It will enable the display of Chinese characters on Windows devices and also give you the ability to write in Chinese via pinyin or hand writing recognition.
Not sure of a freeware solution or alternative methods.
One point to note if installing CE-Star is that it may automatically adjust your regional settings to the PRC. This will make some programmes change their menus into Chinese (e.g. Google Maps). If this happens just change the regional setting back to an English based country setting and Google Maps, for example, will change back to English.
Hello i own a european HTC Hero and i have recently updated to ROM v2.73.405.5. It has been bought in Italy so only english and italian locales can be selected. I have selected Greek locale using Customlocale.apk, and now all menu and keyb are in gr language, but Greek T9 is missing. Anyone knows any possible solution apart from installing a 3rd party keyboard? Thank you
Proteinw to greek keyboard apo market..
I know you said no third party keyboards but thats all i cant think of,since i prefer my mob in english and have this keyboard in case i need to write something.
Greetz from greece,

Eyxaristo!
I have noticed that T9 works on internet pages (es. google sign in)

have you figured it out yet? i'm trying to sell my phone here in BJ but I can only sell to foreigners until I get that language on there.
AT&T Lumia 900 does Chinese language quite nicely. Under region+language settings modify sytem locale, browser & search language to either Traditional or Simplified Chinese. Then add Chinese keyboard input for 注音符號 and Hanyu Pinyin. They are both there. Good luck!
wait.... how can u use 900 in china?
i thought it's lock to at&t

I have a lumia 800 that I use and bought a 900 from my friend who works at at&t when I visited the states a few weeks ago. It is locked to at&t still. Waiting for that code.

As for 注音符號, can you choose Eten (倚天) keyboard layout? And can you use the Hanyu Pinyin Keyboard to output Traditional Chinese? Any handwriting input?
You can type in Chinese but the display language for the UI is still locked to English or Spanish.

Here are the keyboard options on my Titan (I *think* these are standard Mango, so it should be the same on a Lumia 900):
Chinese Simplified 12 Key
Chinese Simplified Handwriting
Chinese Simplified QWERTY
Chinese Traditional Handwriting
Chinese Traditional BoPoMoFo
I don't see any further settings for the Chinese keyboards (I might be missing something).

bopomofo and handwriting are both included for traditional Chinese. No PinYin :-(
Under Region + Language Settings:
Display Language (no Chinese)
Region Format: Chinese HKG, Macao, PRC, Singapore, and Taiwan
System Locale: Chinese HKG, Macao, PRC, Singapore, and Taiwan
Browser & Search Language: Chinese HKG, Macao, PRC, Singapore, and Taiwan
Cheers
Only two variants of English, the English (US) and English (UK) are listed under the language settings. When I used an app called "Any Locale, a switching widget", I saw way more options than what was shown in the language menu. When I selected an English (India) option in the app, the language setting in language & input reflected that change and displayed the selected language as English(India). I still cannot access half the options the app shows in the main default language settings menu. Does anybody have any input on why this is happening ? Is it because GNex was not launched in all countries that the language option was limited. Does other non-stock JB ROMs also have this limitation ? Any input on the topic would be welcome. TIA
Stock 4.1.1 and I have access to like 40 languages in the main phone settings.

Let me try to make myself clearer. There are around 40 languages shown in the Language menu, in which there are only two variants for English . (United Kingdom and United states). Where as the app is offering a lot more options for the locale, which I can set from the app, like English (India). This gets reflected in Settings -> Language & input settings -> Language, so it is working to some extent but I dont understand why I cannot set it from there in the first place. The reason I am going to such detail is because the Navigation app uses this information to set accent of the voice, but I could not set the language to Indian locale from the default menu. I am using the Yakju build which is supposed to be the international build.

That's a good question, but unfortunately I have no idea. And I didn't realize that you could access other languages just by using that app.

Digging more, I found that play store has lots of apps which support custom locales, you could combine language , country and region to create a new one, there are some which retain the setting after reboot, but yet to find one which retains the settings after reboot on Jellybean devices. These apps are handy if you bought some phone say from no-name chinese manufacturer and did not have the usual locales on them.
Greetings,
I live in Sweden and I'm considering buying a tab from amazon. Those of you that have a US tab, could you please check if swedish language is available as a system language for the device.
All the best,
