Change Google maps language !!! - HTC Wildfire S

Hi all
My phone language was set to Arabic "i have an arabic rom", all my app. displayed in arabic lang. but google maps, it's in english
I searched on net and i got no effective answer
Can u help me to show my maps in arabic lang. ???
P.S.
My friends have a phones can show arabic google maps
I found this answer in an old thread said "On your phone in the folder \Application Data\GoogleMaps you see a file "i18n-strings.dat". Copy the file to your PC and open it with a hex editor. When you scroll through the file, you (hopefully) see at the beginning of the file something like en^".. en/strings_remote_"
I changed here the "en" to "ja" (as I am in Japan).
Save the file and copy it back to your phone into the \Application Data\GoogleMaps folder.
On the next start of Google Maps, I get the menus in English, even my Regional Settings are back to "Japanese".
I can't get "i18n" file !!

The language option on google maps apparently runs on the language local to your current location. Ie if you were in france it would show french, in germany it would show german ect. That app allows you to set the language manually, argo giving you a arabic google maps. It may be older that the most current official google maps but you asked for a solution and that is what I found. Take it or leave it man, I was only trying to help...

Anyone have a problem with the appstore app being in the wrong language?
My phone has an ENU rom with the location language set to dutch and the app the Appstore installs by itself is French (only giving me french flavored Descriptions too it seems).
I haven't found any complaint or contact information for the App Store either, so reporting this trough other contact methods I do know would take even longer then usual.
Anyone have a problem with the appstore app being in the wrong language?
My phone has an ENU rom with the location Belgium and the app the Appstore installs by itself is French (only giving me french flavored Descriptions too it seems).
Its pissing me of big time, not just form MS but from all these lazy asshole companies.
I'm Belgian Flemish and I'm sick and tired of companies auto pointing Dutch speaking belgians to french flavored applications.
Not only am I dutch speaking, but around 60% of belgium is dutch speaking with only around 33% of Belgium speaking french. So the logical default would be to give Dutch to belgians in general rather then French.
I wonder what would happen in the US if they gave everyone Spanish apps by default instead of English ones.

Installation problem
After installing (which appears to be succesfull), I get nothing! Where am I supposed to be looking, as there's no new icon in my start menu
Don't worry about that last post - I've solved it.
For some reason, the CAB file a few posts up doesn't work. The ZIP file in the second post downloaded it and installed it correctly, and it's working now.
Thanks guys.

So anyone out there can find a way to download any app from market place direct to your storage card ?....
Microsoft has put in the requirement to have have every software translated to the countries' own language, before it can be put on Marketplace. In some countries, there are very few applications offered to the public because of this.
Is there any way to make Marketplace 'think' we're from a different country?

[APPS]Working keyboards for most EU countries (JPY)

Seems that there're always someone missing a language in the keyboards for new ROMs... I've gathered working keyboards tested on Darky's v7.7, and to me it looks like most European countries are in there.
Install with rootexplorer.
Unzip the the files in a folder on your sd-card.
BACKUP ORIGINAL FILES FIRST!
files in sys-app goes into /system/app
files in sys-lib goes into /system/lib
Open rootexplorer, go into "system", click "mount R/W" in upper right corner
AFTER you've backed up the original files, find the unzipped files on your sd-card and it's just a question of long press the files (eg. AxT9IME.apk) from from my .zip file on the keyboard you want and select copy, enter /system/app for .apk files, "paste" and let it overwrite, and /system/lib for the .so files.
Take them one by one if you're not used to working with rootexplorer.
When you're done, click the "mount R/O" in upper right corner and your done.
REMEMBER.. you can do serious damage to your rom if you delete or move essential system files.
This is at OWN risk!
If someone is willing to make a CWM zip-file please do, I just like the rootexplorer way better.

In Darky's v7.8 changelog he he wants to change the keyboards back to v7.7 for some reason:

Maybe there is an issue with the new ones... I'm still on 7.7

Normally I can always find something I don't use in the system directory. A widget or a program... (on the Desire I always removed games like Teeter and programs/widgets like Stocks) Maybe you could look through the directory and find one or two things to remove, then try again. Again, make sure you're in R/W mode.

Predictive Keyboard Spanish WP7

Friends, here I bring a breakthrough ... install the architect to achieve predictive Spanish (rom is for those with no alternative in English language).
It is very simple, install the xap (need to have the phone unlocked), after installing the program will touchexplorer to my ringtones folder and rename the file, sticking out the extension. wma
would file this name: dictionary.0409.dat I cut and pasted in the windows folder of the phone (asking whetheryou want to replace and say it did) .
Restart the phone and ready ... the Spanish dictionary ...
I can pick up other languages​​, but for now only supported by windows ...
I read his comments, I hope you find it helpful.
Greetings

Other languages?
Sounds fantastic. Would it be possible to make this for other languages than Spanish?

Regards,
Hello good afternoon. I have a only two languajes in my phone: english and german, then when I try to install your application it doesn't appear any file with the *.wma extension in the ringtones folder. When I've explored the windows folder (with touchxplorer), and there are only two files with the name dictionary...-> one ...0407... and other ...0809... but not ...0409... Could you tell me what can I do?. Thanks a lot and great job.

good afternoon
The application installs the folder / My Rintones / if you do not have is not correctly fitted. Has the phone unlocked? chevron to use it?
Hello again. Thanks for your answer. Yes the phone is unlocked with chevron and the folder name is 'My Device/My Documents/My Ringtones' (in the phone). But the problem is I don't have the archive 'dictionary.0409.dat' in the windows folder, I have 'dictionary.0407.dat' and 'dictionary.0809.dat' (maybe english and german), when I install the aplication the archive 'dictionary.0409.wma' isn't copied in the phone, nothing is copied... Thanks a lot
Hello. Excuse me I forgot to execute the program ChevronWP7 Ringtones, now I see the file 'dictionary.0409.dat.wma', but as I said to you I don't have the file 'dictionary.0409.dat'in the windows folder, I have 'dictionary.0809.dat' and 'dictionary.0407.dat', then can use the file ...0409... as a dictionary? Thanks again
Excuse me, I forgot a step ...
After installing the application, go to the menu of installed applications and CHEVRON RINGTONE appears and you click on ... doing that you add the file to the specified folder.
Sorry, did not understand your problem ...
Strengthen me you could do

rename the file, but that time the numbering indicates the language that replaces ... In your case you can rename the 0407 or 0809
example, the renamed file change 'dictionary.0409.dat' for 'dictionary.0407.dat' and overwrites
Now it works fine, I have english and spanish (instead of german). Thanks a lot
can anyone post the english dictionary? I forgot to back it up... Now i want it back since its only in spanish now.

[Q] French language for the keyboard

Hello, I'm French
I instaled this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2027029
with these tweaks: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2412864
I could do everything in French, except the keyboard.
More préscisément the language of the text input.
So when I write a French words , that I said all the words in red.
It does not make with Blade Elite 1.3
What should I do to install the French language for text input?
Well, in the first post of the ROM there is a link called Keyboard Languages AddOn, maybe you have to get them.
I installed it, but it changes nothing
