Hi there,
I am about to pick up a Dopod c720w for 2500 RMB here in China, it's a Taiwanese version with no English.
My question is -- is there some kind of ROM I could install that would give me dual English/Chinese support? Or some other method? I don't want to buy the unit if it's going to be forever stuck in Chinese...
Thanks!
Matt.
*Edit* - Also, I just received a T-Mobile MDA Mail which was a mistake, because it doesn't support WiFi.... the vendor switched me away from the c720w because it didn't have English (and he wasn't even aware that the MDA Mail doesn't have Wifi). So, he'll switch me back to the c720w, but only if it is possible for me to get it running in English (with Chinese support, preferably, so that I can easily view / have friends here type stuff in).
The Dopods in Singapore are Eng+Chinese (config either or)
maybe u can try the ROMs from DopodAsia
I have a Taiwanese one I bought in Taipei. It has both languages installed.
When you CID unlock the phone you can install the rom you want.
mine are hongkong version and support both english and chinesse
try to go to setting press 7 (more) and then 5 (regional setting)
the first row is regional setting and i think it' changeable
those with english + chinese, is it a CHT rom or WWE rom?

please help
You need the european rom as i dont think there is a specific german one, as all european ones allow you to change the language of the OS to english, french etc. Even the uk one allows you to change language to german
I all
I have a htc wildfire S "Europe" but in languages isn't available the portuguese portugal language is there a way to update the rom with portuguese language
best regards
Hi,
I had the same problem, just purchased one and wanted to use my mothertongue ...
The Italian Lang was on the device, I checked the ROM installed and it was a generic EU. However it was not visible in the selection of the languages.
The language selection shows on this firmware ONLY the languages for the country where the SIM card belongs to. I installed in an Italian sim card and the phone magically switched on ITA (after prompting, sim card changed etc etc)
No need for languange packs, however I searched the internet and the market before getting to you. There are no language packs to change the os language in android. If the pack is installed in the rom it's ok otherwise there is nothing that can be installed via the market. Adding a language to the OS would require to ROOT into the device and write into /system folder (which is not possible on a STOCK image). Currently Android up to version 2.3 does not foresee any language pack addition, it is not a feature of the OS.
Change HTC Wildfire S language
Hi,
Do you mean that my Wildfire S should propose more language when installing a SIM card from another country ?
Now it shows only English and Chinese.
Thanks.
Yes, it propose you the language according to your sim card.. put in a portuguese sim card
I have a similar problem.
I bought a phone and I don't know what is the rom, but I suspect it is Asian (although I bought it in England). When I try to change the language, only appears English and to Chinese or similar (I can't precise, because I don't understand it).
I tried to put the SIM, but still the same.
I contacted the HTC chat support, they told me to install an app from Android market, MoreLocale2, but nothing happened: always the same 3 idioms.
I'm looking for a way to put Portuguese, maybe replacing the rom or something.
If anyone could help, I would appreciate very much.
If you have European version, try to install an application from the market: MoreLocale2 and select Portuguese. Maybe you're luckier then me.
after install morelocale2 you have to go to morelocale2 and select portuguese, in "original phone configuration" it will keep the default but the phone wil switch to the language selected in morelocale2.
it work for me
There's no way to work with me...
There's still only English and Chinese.
morelocale2 worked perfect for me ;]
Worked for me too! Portuguese for HTC Buzz (Wildfire).
schurzelat
m.oliveira: installing morelocale2 won't get you portuguese on the htc available languages. They will remain chinese and english.
But after installing morelocale2, click on morelocale2 icon and select portuguese.
After that all will be changed to portuguese, in spite of in the system language the available options remain chinese and portuguese.
It won't change available languages on the languages list, the new available languages will only appear on morelocale2 app!
Try this and let us know!
Hi all. I recently had do downgrade my Desire HD to version 1.26 as I was on custom rom and wanted to go back to stock due to warranty issues. Then after I flashed the downgrade image I updated using the normal update method of the HTC menu. What happens now is that the firmware is on wrong region. It only lets me choose between English, French, Italian and Spanish on both UK and Ireland regions. I want Portuguese (Portugal) and it is not letting me even update to version 2.50 that I had before moving to custom roms.
Any help on how to change the region?
Well it seems like I found the problem, the CID was set to HTC__001 which is the UK one. I have found a post with the CID codes and I found for Portugal to be HTC__506 and so I set it to that code. And now I can choose Portuguese (Portugal) but another problem happens and that it doesn't detect updates. Is the firmware not correct to this CID setting?
Hi all,
Bought a Wildfire S from Australia (with Telstra) and wanted to convert all menus to chinese (Taiwan) for a friend.
What's the best way to do this? Do I have to use a RUU with the Taiwanese rom (BTW it's on 2.3 atm)...
Thanks a lot
