Hi Guys, just got my Desire today, so far i,m impressed but for one problem.I live in Australia, I bought the fone from China, I either need to find out how to turn of predictive text in SMS/MMS messaging and Google search, or chnge the language pack. Although I have english language on the fone, I have (english Taiwan) (english malaysia) ect ect but no english Australia , USA or any other English speaking country.
How do I change this, I want to rid the fone of the extra un needed language packs or whatever HTC calls them. Its a real pain trying totype an address in Google search and having to tap the so called predictive text alternative.
Please help guys.
Other than that I,m statring to like this thing, I come from Iphone 3Gs so things are slightly different, and guess what, I now have reception in my home.

And exactly where would one find this file, I googled it, and guess what, Google directed me back to this post
It's actually called "More Locale 2" and you find it on the Market.
Hi. I have HTC Mozart from Orange UK and I can not change English display languge for Polish.
Is no Polish in Settings -> Region & Language -> Display Language.
Any idea how to install it?
windows phone 7 does not currently support that language, so no there is no way of doing it. though i've heard of a homebrew application which will let you use a keyboard which has been designed for it, and with copy/paste around the corner, when the homebrew xap's work again afterwards, then you should see them appear.
the other way is with the bigger update coming 2nd half of the year which should bring official support.

But orange PL have the same phone with Polish languge...
I have this same problem
As far as I've read, Windows Phone 7 only fully supports a few languages for this first release (English, French, Italian, German and Spanish), and Polish is not included. If the phones at the store support Polish, then its possible that their display units were customized to support it, but maybe their Retail phones were not. In other words, WP7 direct from Microsoft does not support Polish, but it's possible that Orange or the phone manufacturer customized certain aspects of their devices, and you'd have to ask your carrier/manufacturer about those customizations.
I would suggest going back to the store you got it from and inquiring about it.
Also, the big update coming later this year does not include support for Polish as well.

But Spanish is not supported in all WP7, for example I cant set Spanish in an HTC Surround. But in a Samsung Focus I can.

that is the fault of the carrier/oem. it is actually supported, but for some weird reason they (carrier/oem) turned it off. hopefully MS forces the multi-lingual capabilities and it can't be override...

So this means that a registry tweak can do the job (enable other languages)? I am wondering why someone hasn't found it yet...
yes a registry tweak can fix it, but it would be for languages only already built into the phone. The additional languages that you're wondering about can't be enabled as they aren't in the phone. Though this is also a questionable statement as I remember seeing a homebrew application keyboard with a lot of support for other languages.

Thanks for the reply but wait. What I need in the HTC Surround is Spanish, it has to be definitely built in...
which is true based on versions in other countries. but yea, i'm not sure how to get it enabled. i wonder if you'll get it as part of the no-do update?

I hpoe so.
It disappointing that carriers still have the power to modify the system this much.
Hey everyone,
Is there a native Android Chinese input method? I know that iOS allows you to write the characters. Is there something similar that is not third party.
Thanks!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
My dad was wondering the same thing. Unfortunately I don't see it in my friend's Galaxy Nexus, so I would say no, it does not have native Chinese input and you'll need to download a third party one (unless custom ROMs have it, then you can go that route).
There is, however, native Chinese (Cantonese and Mandarin) voice typing. So you can select "Chinese, Yue (Hong Kong)" and when you press the voice command (on the keyboard or for Google search) you can search for things by speaking Cantonese which is pretty cool.
HTC does a good job of filling in what Vanilla Android is missing as HTC keyboards (probably only in Asian versions of HTC phones) have pinyin and hand writing options on their custom keyboards. Pretty accurate recognition too (I have it on my HTC Panache).

Google's Pinyin IME. Hope this helps.
so my mom just got the htc one v
and we are from israel which means we use hebrew,
though the phone that comes with the ICS doesnt have hebrew support
not with the keyboard and typing and not the entire OS that it should be according to google ICS.
any ideas what to do beside replacing the rom which i dont feel like doing right now?
Hello all
This is my first post here.
I bought a new HTC One X from amazon.co.uk and installed Revolution HD 9.2.0
I was happy to see that it has so many languages, but it lacks Hebrew.
I don't mind that, I hate Hebrew OS anyway.
But, even after the Revolution HD installation, I couldn't find the HTC Sense keyboard with Hebrew layout in it.
I had to download Swype keyboard, which is pretty nice, but I would prefer the real deal.
Is there any stock/kernel/something that will give the HTC Sense keyboard a Hebrew layout, or should I buy the phone in Israel itself?
Thanks to all the readers and helpers,
Liron
Sorry, does not exist.
Even in original "Touch-Group" ROMS (or custom ARHD) with a full Hebrew interface the Sense keyboard doesn't have Hebrew.
It is a huge bummer for Israeli users, but given how there's so few of us, I doubt HTC give an eff.
It doesn't have to do with numbers, otherwise there would an Arabic layout, which there isn't...

Maybe it's geographical. There are some obscure as hell languages there.
