Which Rom?
On most it's usually under System Settings -> Languages and Input -> then somewhere from there.

I've flashed the LeeDrOiD Rom (It is a Sense 3 Rom).
I know that i could normally change the language there, but the only option is english...

The rom was then probably only shipped with English as an option, does that rom have any sections to allow you to download more?

I didn't find anything... Isn't there a zip file from another rom, which I can use?

Maybe best to ask the rom creator?

Alternatively you can download an alternative keyboard from the market (SwiftKeys3) or grab Swype Beta or so forth since most of those third party keyboards have the option to download other languages, and those dictionaries/suggestions would also apply to the hardware keyboard.

AOSP-Eclair-2.0 HTC Touch Input Localisation

Hello. Is there any chance to have HTC Touch Input (from HTC Hero 1.5 default rom) with national alphabet and symbols instead of Android keyboard? When I install it, there is no Russian language, even after editing xml file and rebooting.

Posible to port HTC_CIME or HTC_IME to Eclair?

Hi, everyone.
I found HTC's IME is very brilliant, and could you port it into one of your roms?
Sorry, I think I didn't express myself clearly. I mean that:
Is it possible to port the HTC Touch Input Chinese (HTC_CIME) into AOSP Eclair ROMs?
Because I can't find any AOSP Eclair ROM with it, I think maybe there is something not that simple as install an apk file? I've tried both the standalone APK file and the update.zip methods. Sadly, neither works. If someone could help?
Sorry for my poor english, and thanks for all of you!

you mean htc keyboard ?

[Q] Installing HTC_IME.apk

Hi all,
I am thinking to flash Leedroid ROM on my DHD hoping to get rid with the proximity sensor problem (mine is still 1.32.707.5).
However, I think this ROM does not include "Handwriting recognition" input method which is available in my stock ROM though it includes other 4 Chinese inputs. I find this input quite useful and I wish to keep it.
So, I have this idea but don't know whether it can be done. All guru here kindly advise.
Say, I cut and paste HTC_IME.apk and HTC_IME.odex using Root Explorer from this directory: /system/app/
(Note: After cut and paste into other folder, the "Touch Input" method disappeared from the input selection.)
Then I flash my phone with Leedroid rom.
I then reinstall it using HTC_IME.apk or copy these HTC_IME.apk and HTC_IME.odex back into /system/app/
My question is, whether the above method is the correct way to keep/transfer my stock "Touch Input" into new flashed rom?
Does Leedroid ROM actually get rid of proximity sensor problem?
Expert opinion from you all are much appreciated.
Thank in advance.
Regards!
Anyone please?
Having the same problem as well.
I ude lees rom and have no issues. Search the forum for modified htc_ime. Zip and flash in your rom after first boot from recovery.

i'll hep you. Try install only HTC_IME.apk like other normall apps by any file manager. Now go to language input and look it is available HTC IME.
@mariosraptor do you mean the htc_ime_jonasl_hires22_27.zip file from this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416 and flash it with recovery??
@seba84_2005 can't be done, tired. Can install HTC_IME.apk on top of the Lee rom

I guarantee you that you can as I have done it over ten times. Just install it normally, language settings, select the htc_ime mod.
Yes jonasl htc_ime.zip
Download the flashable zip to flash it from recovery.
You can find it in plain Desire in Oxygen thread by AdamG.

Thanks for your response. Yes, I can install HTC_ime mod too. But what winwintoto1234 and I needed is to replace the HTC_ime that is in the Lee rom which doesn't has the Chinese handwriting option with the one from the stock rom which has it. HTC_ime mod is worst, it has no chinese input option at all (not to mention handwriting) + no arrow key.
Thanks for the replies.
In fact I tried to install as normal but it doesn't work. It couldn't even be installed.
I then copied both the files back into their original location but the input just refused to work. So I have to do a restoration using nandroid.
I however noticed that if we touch and hold the apk file in Root Explorer, it pops up some options, one of them is "Extract All". I think by doing this, the possibility for it to work again may be higher.
I did not try it again as I just don't want to do restoration again after installing quite a number of useful applications.
Expert's advice is most welcome.
Regards!

As has been stated before we are looking for the Chinese input which seems to be missing from the apps that we can find. I too am looking for the fabled Chinese Input from HTC so that I can use it on my Desire Z which I purchased in Taiwan but have flashed over to CyanogenMod (couldn't stand sense myself).
Fyi to the op, you cant use a odexed .apk ( .apk & .odex) on a deodexed rom anywyay. it will only end up with a dexopt crash
I've found that this thread has one that sort of works on my Desire Z. There is an issue where it fc's if you try to change the input method style (e.g. handwriting, zhu yin etc ) in settings, but you can change it from the keyboard. The physical keyboard on the other hand has a lot of issues, the zhu yin does not match up with what is on my board, it seems a little random as to where the zhu yin is. I hope this helps.

Touchwiz ROM

Hey guys
I'm looking for rom that based from the TouchWiz.
Something like the stock rom but without tmobile junk and with Hebrew support.
Thanks.

You might try the standard version of Dandroid. It appears to contain DroidSansHebrew-Bold.ttf and DroidSansHebrew-Regular.ttf. If you need more, the OP contains instructions for using ROM Toolbox to add specific language support.

I haven't tried this myself, but the Dandroid OP includes the following:
Languages
If you need to use a specific language with Dandroid and it's unsupported you can make it work by following these easy steps
1) Go to a rom that has your desired language supported.
2) Open the app "Rom Toolbox", download from the market
3) Go to Interface, then Font Installer
4) Press the menu key, then backup all of your fonts.
5) Setup this rom, then load Rom Toolbox.
6) Restore your previous rom's fonts.
7) You should now be able to read/write in you're language

I understand this to mean that, if you have access to a ROM with Hebrew support, you can extract the Hebrew fonts and "restore" them into Dandroid. But as I noted in my previous post, the standard download of Dandroid appears to contain two Hebrew fonts.
Good luck.

What are you trying to do? Even with LE4.12, I can see Hebrew characters on websites (using Chrome). If it's a keyboard issue, the only thing I can suggest is going into settings to see if you can select Hebrew. I also found a free Hebrew keyboard here. But it doesn't include fonts.
If you need more help than that, I'm afraid I've reached the limit of my knowledge.
If you still have a problem,
try S3Rx. It may already have Hebrew. If not, the developer seems willing to add languages on request.
S3Rx forms the base of the ROM I use. The Dandroid theme now is available as an option within the S3Rx Aroma installer.
Hey. I use Wicked ROM 10 (see our Android Development section) and I read and write in Hebrew and Arabic. Fonts are already included in the ROM for reading. For writing, simply download from the play store one of the many "soft" keyboards with multi languages OR use this cool app to add Hebrew support to the native Samsung keyboard:

Let me know if you have any issues.

[Q] Compact keyboard

Hallo
I dont know if i do something wrong when i falsh a custom rom
But i have i have try alot at the moment but all have only the complete keyboard, and i like the
compact with 3 letters in one.
How can i get this back on the custom roms. or is this impossible.
I think you are talking about the modded HTC keyboard......you can install it on any gingerbread rom,but it isn't compatible with android 4.0+
Hallo
Thats is what i was thinking. but where and how do i get this and how do i install it ?
you can get it on stock sense 2.3.3 or 2.3.5 if you like. go to settings>language and keyboard>keyboard types then change the type to phone

Search for HTC IME mod......or it should probably be in the Themes and Apps section
Hallo
I am using this custom rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1865976
but there is the HTC IME on the phone but it dont find the words when you writ even if the T9 is on,
it cannot spell right and i have try diffrent lanuage.
Custom roms might have a problem supporting the languages. So might as well try the stock rom which supports a lot of languages
