I'm looking for some support on how to enable East Asian character support, chinese and japanese characters on the TP2.
When I receive messages via email, they're coming up as squares or gibberish. The stock ROM I had initially had support for the characters, but most of the new ROMs I've tried/flashed don't.
Is there a cab or some way to enable encoding for East Asian characters so the phone can read/render/en/decode them properly?
Cheers

Doesn't seem to work after I installed and soft reset :s
You want Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese support?
Some tp2 comes tweaked by htc to include chinese support on WWE ROM, but since yours doesn't, try:
1. CE-Star suite: http://www.mobem.com/products/CE-Star.php
2. Studio Kuma: http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=support (no Simplified Chinese - Traditional Chinese + Japanese support only)

Thanks for that Mesquire. My stock ROM had support for Chinese, but the baked ROMs that the chefs are releasing don't. And I'm not sure what is needed for them to include to make it work, as I was told to give them what was needed and they'll add it.
I'm after simplified Chinese + Jap, so I'll try CE-Star. Thanks =)
Edit: geh, CE-Star isn't free >.>
Does anyone know what tweak/cab is needed/used by HTC to support Chinese/Jap characters in ROMs?

character recognition, correct?
i've been looking for something like this.
but, i downloaded the wm 5/6 version with "x" from that website and downloaded it to my mogul...
it isn't really working
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) 系統安裝 : 只可選一個安裝
System Big5C.cab <- 繁體
System GBKC.cab <- 簡體
***** 安裝後系統會要求 Reset , 千萬不要 Reset !!!! *****
2.) 輸入法安裝 : 選擇安裝
ChaJei倉頡.cab
Jianyi速成.cab
Penpower蒙恬Big5.cab
Penpower蒙恬GBK.cab
Pinyin拼音.cab
Yuepin粵拼.cab
Zhuyin注音.cab
3.) 最後安裝過程
到 Start -> Programs -> CE-Star , 按下 Install , Reset 後就完成 .
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So, I want to either chose Big5C or GBKC? which one?
then i reset, then download all the other cabs? (again either Penpower Big5 or Penpower GBK)...but other than that all of them, correct?
then reset?
i've done this and the ce-star menu i get seems to lead to nowhere
please help
DON'T use Ce-star.
The character will be very small and ugly.

English version Windows Mobile (like older Windows versions) by default has no East Asian support, so "enablers" like CE-Star adds support for these languages.

Depends on which type of Chinese characters encoding you require. If you want Traditional Chinese, as used by Taiwan and Hongkong, then install BIG5. If you need Simplified Chinese support as used by China, Singapore and others, install GBKC
then i reset, then download all the other cabs? (again either Penpower Big5 or Penpower GBK)...but other than that all of them, correct?
then reset?
Click to expand...

NO!!!
#1 Choose one of the system cab (not both):
a) System Big5C.cab or b) System GBKC.cab
when prompt to reset, do NOT reset
#2 Install the cab for input method(s) you require
#3 Start -> Programs -> All Programs > Install
#4 Reset when prompt
Since you have not installed it correctly, I suggest you uninstall it and start again.

thank you for answering all my questions mesquire,
i suppose i installed it incorrectly, i'm glad i used my mogul and not my new TP2 because it completely jacked up the mogul...i had to hard reset.
i may attempt again on the mogul or look elsewhere...what i really need is touchscreen character recognition

Seems you are new here , dont know who is Mamaich , better look what his post and how he help people in here , maybe you had no ideal how made AKU3.2 rom ,and why everyone made any rom always said thanks Mamaich,I think you better said sorry to him,they are no any RUS rom for Uni in the world but I knew Mamaich can make it , but why he said sucks ? I tell you why because cant find VGA RUS mui special in some of program , if you can find it than said sucks for him or me otherwide sucks is you AXP understand.
PS.Mamaich lived in RUS
Russian interface sucks for 4 reasons.
1. Awful translation. Sometimes you need to translate a phrase back to English just to understand what it should mean. I call it "русЕфЕкация".
2. Localized interfaces look ugly - lines don't fit dialogs, font problems, etc.
3. Localized ROMs appear later than english, so you have to use obsolete OSes.
4. Localizations are made by Quarta and similar companies who do them via reverse engineering ROMs (extracting & translating resources, patching hardcoded strings, editing registry etc - I know what I'm talking about). In most cases this is done incorrectly, and such ROMs are unstable.
The best thing you can do - is to localize only the on-screen/hardware keyboard and select Russian regional settings. In this case you'll get a stable OS and an ability to use Russian.
Attached one screenshot (this is a russian version of Windows desktop search downloaded from microsoft site).
But there are already many ROMs have Chinese interface.The mui files and some dll files were all translated into Chinese.
However,I still love the English interface.What I did was only to replace wince.nls with a Chinese one, remove all the English inputs and SmartDialer,and replace the ttf file with Chinese file,also edit registry.Without mamaich,we can never do this.

Probably, I should apologize. My English not so is good, and I have understood a phrase literally - that Russia (instead of the Russian interface) - sucks. With your statements I absolutely agree. Itself and I do.

Thanks a lot.
Happy new year.
Greets Daniel.
I think everything is OK right now. Russian fonts are already present in every ROM - either Helmi's or Ivan's or Jwrightmcps's. And there are a lot of russian keyboards to choose from. So everyone can use Mobile Word or smth to edit russian docs.
And it's not too difficult to remember some menu items in English even if the user doesn't know English.
And, sure, OS developers can not make english applications to run in russian.
So I don't see a problem.

I can cook it with CE-Star and Chinese input if anyone wants it.
Is it possible make it become chinese?
May be let me explain better ..
Personally , I prefer english interface,
but as a HK people,
I need to have a function to view chinese ..
and I HATE those fonts that using by CE-Star and Monster chinese
(the outlook of fonts is ugly ...)
therfore I use the fonts from windows vista which call Microsoft YaHei that can support cht and chs ....and best outlooking and never mess up at any size
that's why my rom is in english interface but HAD the function to view chinese ...
and for ppl who seeking for a clean rom, this may also be a good choice is be coz .. I had removed
1) clearvue PDF
2) those animated gif
3) all ring except those ring-standard.wma .....
4) those waterfall.jpg , flower.jpg ..........
I also a HK people, I agree with your point! but is it possible make it with the build in input for EN interface? and is it inculde the Windows Update?
Thanks!
I am using LVSW, rather than flashing again... is it possible to make it read chinese (no need input) like your ROM?
Mind to guide how?
Thanks leofungwai
Thanks leofungwai, as a Chinese user myself, I share the same delimar as you, and I am glad that you are sharing what you did with us. Now, about the Chinese input, would it be possible to have Cantonese pin-yin as one of the inputs?
Yes please Traditional Chinese with hand writing input if possible.

You will be able to view CHT (or even CHS, I am not sure) using the patch. If you need Chinese inputs, you have to use those software like Monster or CE Star.

Hi, all guys,
I have checked this site for a long time to find a Simplified Chinese version ROM. But I'm disppointed every time I logged in.
Is there any one have same idea with me? Same wish for a Simplified Chinese version ROM as me?
Is there any one have done that or work on this? Oh is there any one can provide the procedure and material dumps for this project?
Regards
Frank Bing
I'd like 2 help.
as i know, the only thing we need 2 do is adding mui files into the current rom. then we have it!
but english rom runs faster, so install CE-Star on your device will be a better idea.

Pure Chinese
Basically I agree with you! But when you want to do it you may met lots of problems.
The big challenges is you have to find all the files related with Chinese, include so files support IMEs and also some registries.
And the problem with CE-star is you can not search you contact list by Pingyin sequential. And also CE-start does not suport Pen, Brush Pen stensil.
Anyway thanks. If I have time and don't care about cost, I should do it myself. And the file list which support SC can be get by compare the dump of SC and TC of other models of HTC phone like dopod830 or cht9000.
Regards
Frank Bing
hi there
if u wanna search your contact list by chinese, check this out.
PS: after install the pocketcm, place lang.ini in the same directory. run pocketcm, then u will find everything in chinese.
After installed YaHei cab, the system displays Chinese very well.
But in the regional settings, there is no such choise for Chinese. Besides, in the IE, there is no Chinese encoding, so the chinese words cann't be read in IE.
What I want is the English interface + Chinese support, so if the problems i mentioned above can be solved, it will be great to me.
Notice: for trinity all the cooked wm6 rom only!!!!!Simplfied Chinese.
this cab will install a font and a wince.nls file, which makes your chinese contact index in ABC and regional settings including P.R.China. that means you can view chinese website.
the wince.nls is special, only works with hermes and trinity wm6, if you install it into other mobile handset, not too bad but the live messenger will fail.
i made it by myself,and i am sure it will working great.
sorry i have trouble uploading files. it is smaller then limitation,but
Chinese_Plus_P3600.zip:
Upload of file failed.
everytime.

Hi, i'm looking for a new rom which support chinese applications. The one i'm the currently using does the job, but its pretty old now. (i'm not using LVSW now)
I am using Hypercore 3.62 - Final, and plug in the chinese inputs, fonts, etc. myself instead of CE-star or monster. The result is pretty fast and stable.

but you still can't read chinese text(*.txt), Can you? To do that, you have to change the setting in Regional Settings at first. But I can't find any options for PRC or Taiwan or HongKong there.
The methode may not be usefull for the products sold outside asia.

I can view, edit Chinese! The regional settings can be set to HK, China, Macau, Taiwan, etc. after you follow the steps in the link in post #2. (see screen shots below). The regional settings comes with the ROM you flashed, and it has nothing to do with where you bought it. (Of course I am not talking about official rom from carriers)
PS - You have to solve the line break problem in displaying chinese text by changing the registry. Find the key called "SystemLCID", change the value from 409 to 404 and do a soft reset, all chinese are displayed properly with line breaks.

Hi,
I struggled for a long time to get a stable simplified Chinese writing and display system. What seems to work very well for me is ANY of Schaps' ROM, I have been using them since 3.54 and Leies CE-star cabs. I just install the font cab, pinyin cab, and handwriting cab for simplified and it works really well. I am not a huge fan of CE Star, the chinese IME for motorola e680i (my old phone) was much better, but this is the best I've found for WM6 so far. PM me if you can't find the cabs.
link is already dead!
I've created a cab for greek keyboard in ROM 5.2.21018.1.6.0 (the one in Dutty's HD Xtreme 1.8 ROM) with XT9 and full support for all greek characters.
Just press and hold the character you want and the specials characters will appear i.e. when pressing "ι" you'll get "ί ϊ ΐ"
* Works on landscape too*
It took some searching to make it happen but now it's ok. Tested by me - it works fine.
Just install the cab in the attachment - you can always uninstall.
If you installed previous version of the cab file please uninstall and soft reset before proceeding with new installation.
Thank you very very much!!!
I'm waiting for new release by Dutty to test it.
Very nice work bro....Σε ευχαριστώ πολύ

I've already tried that. I think that file is to be used with hardware keyboard and I'm guessing touch pro 2 maybe.

Great news.
I'm testing the new file with full greek support. Everything seems to be ok.
I will have the file uploaded in about 2 hours after I finish the testing.

No it won't work with the official HTC HD ROM because it uses older version of manila-touchflo and also older version of keyboard.
As for the 160 characters on SMS, I'm working on that.
If you want greek keyboard for official HTC rom I think panosha has already created a cab for greek keyboard. Search the forum and I'm sure you'll find it.

Hi aeacus,
Did you manage to complete your amazing work, by adding 160 characters support on SMS?
Many thanks bro for your hard work
aeacus,
Could you please check your Greek Keyboard because with new Duty's ROM v2.2 it's not working correctly (e.g. Spce bar is not displayed correctly, the green selector which shows if you have selected XT9 is disabled), etc
Thanks in advance
