The same here. Mine came with only English and Franch language. After fleshing nothing changed...I was looking for Italian language, but nothing has changed. WHY?

I exchanged some mails with HTC about this. The language that is shown by the phone relates to some internal ID of the phone (CID? IMEI?), not easily changed. The ROM only reads that info and chooses the languages that appear for selection.
My guess is that we need to root the phone first.
Either way, morelocale2 solves 99% of the problem.

Where did you buy your desire? Is it from polish distribution sources? I've bought mine about a week ago, and there is polish locale available (settings->lang and local..).
If there is an option to rip rom from the device, I can do it for u, but afaik there is no such option till desire is rooted, but correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi
There is root acces,
I have rooted my phone but nothing changed !
I am not able to flash and get Polish language
Any ideas ?

Change default Desire firmware

I just bought an Asian Desire (Taiwan version), and would like to change it to a European firmware, so I'd have the right keyboards with rights spelling mistakes for French, Dutch, German and English.
I downloaded the official European ROM: RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865
I tried to install it. It started well and went into the bootloader (I have version 0,8), but then I got "Error 130".
After looking around on forums, I thought it might not have worked, because I didn't make a Goldcard, so I made one, and tried again. But this time I got "Error 140".
Anybody has an idea of what the problem could be?

well have you rooted your phone?

you don't need to root your phone to install RUUs, just the gold card.
It failed because you have a newer bootloader than the one in the rom you are trying to install. Try the WWE (World Wide English) version 1.21.405.2 - it has the languages you are after.

Thanks for the help! I'm downloading the WWE version, and will try to install it.
I'll get back to let you know if it worked or not ^^. I'm in China, with an awful connection, so it can take a little while .

Thanks! The WWE version works great, and has an AMAZING amount of languages! I couldn't get any happier, as I wasn't hoping to get this many languages!
Now just to get the root, and I'm in heaven <3
Thanks a lot for the super fast and great help!

no russian in virtuous-vision_froyo_rom-v0.9.0

Hi, i just installed virtuous-vision_froyo_rom-v0.9.0 on my desire z but cant see russian language in it. Am i missing something? If there is no russian in this ROM can anyone direct me to a rom that has russian language in it? Also, do i need to root again to flash another rom since i permrooted my phone?

Sorry but when I saw "no Russian" it took me back to the airport science in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Have no clue about a Russian Tom but you will not have to root again since you are perm rooted, hence the term perm --> permanent
Sent from my HTC Vision

Just to inform and maybe help others i will tell you that i factory set my phone and now i can see many languages including russian, portuguese, turkey and more

[Q] Add a language?

Is there anyway to add another language to the phone without having to S-Off and install a new rom?
My friend has just bought a Wildfire S but it has n hungarian language.
I have successfully S-Offed my own desire but understand its not available without a clip on this model.(Not sure what the clip is)
Edit
For those that might need it, I made a goldcard and then flashed stock European Rom. Seemed to do the trick

Sometimes when you made a goldcard and reflash with WWE firmware, thats not enough (My Desire Z), I still have seened only English and couple more languages on it, even that, that I use XTClip for ChaCha and Wildfire S, and on them all languages are shown. So, in that case I use MoreLocale2 from market to force use build-in language, even if this is not showned on the phone.

Yes! there is another way
Take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074445 . you can easily Debrand your cell to another rom (not always possible) and see other languages.
in my case I changed my phone from INDIAN to ARABIC to see Persian fonts

Did anyone knows which languages are provided?

Hi,
after I'd buyed a U12+ from TW and was fine with it, I'd buyed a U19e which just 6 languages provided (5 Asian and English), want to know before if the U20 provide more (Android itself is spreaded in all languages). Did anyone have or had the chance to check this?
If it provide German, the order will be done 10 Seconds later!

Both, U12+ 128GB DualSIM and U19e 128GB at ebay in an UK Shop. The U12+ provide all normal languages (as intended from Google), but the U19e not (just English and 5 Asian), so I want to clearify it before buying it -but I'm searching since moth where to buy a U20 G5 white, but didn't found it -neither the white, nor the green one. Just the Desire 20 pro.

...well, same **** then U19e, just English and 5 asian languages. Today mine arrive (asked seller if it will have German language, he said "Yes") and I'm really pissed now!

I recently imported a U20 5G handset from Taiwan to UK via eBay and it came with English (US) plus the 5 Asia-region languages.
Running English (US) obviously isn't such a big deal for me as Gboard can be set to English (UK). For our German friends it is a little more inconvenient.
I guess HTC have made it clear this is a Taiwan only device for the moment hence the lack of choice. I hope they open up the phone to other markets as they have done with the recent Desire 20 Pro handset. I'm just glad it came with English of some sort as I was taking a gamble importing the handset (!)
Sorry I know that is probably not the answer you were looking for.

i bought this phone from hong kong which has english and 4 other chinese languages
I proceeded to install Morelocale2, and installed the usb drivers for HTC u20 on my laptop with windows 10 (which already had the drivers and ADB folder of the previous phones), that's it, htc u20 in Italian, perfect.

...if using morelocale via adb -will the phone make a reset, and the data will be lost? A very important information.

Well, I made a backup und tried it, and the answer is: No! Just make it as described in some avaiable describtions (also possible without rooting), and it works without device reset.
