First of all, I dont know if this thread belongs to this forum, so please tell me if I am wrong.
A few days ago I bought a HTC One M9 and surprisingly it didn't have my local language (spanish). Reading how to solve this, I downloaded MoreLocale2 and granted permissions through adb to change language and that went fine, but everytime I restart the device or turn it off, language changes back to english and I have to reenable the language through the app.
Is there a way to make this change permanent without having to root the phone?
I'm currently on Android 7
Thanks!

Have been unable to get the calibration tool to work with this.
Currently, I am using a theme generated version which works great, but I need to calibrate it to better for how I type.
Using Calibrate FC on me.
I attempted to update the clicker.apk but it won't load.
Anyone run into this, have a fix.

If your rooted and nand unlock, use rootexplorer to move the clicker_hi.apk to /system/app/ make sure you set permissions and reboot your phone, the calibration tool should work.
Did something similar to that... I moved the clicker*.apk (there were two of them) files to and oldapp directory and then I was able to install the new one. No reboot was needed.
Now the keyboard is calibrated to my typing reach and is back to what it was like before the 2.2 update.

Sitting here for hours trying to figure out how to regain my old DINC 2.1 HTC_IME keyboard, without any success. Rooted, w/S-OFF, Froyo (2.2) under Virtuous 2.6. Edit_01: Then, not sure what I did that was different, but I was able to update my HTC_IME keyboard with a "new" version that I created at the gimpsta.com site. So, my DINC (Rooted, w/S-OFF, Froyo (2.2) under Virtuous 2.6) is working without issue.
Before I was successful in loading a new keyboard, and during my research using Root Explorer (RE), I saw that there were a couple of HTC_IME files in the system and cache directories, but RE said they were read only and would not allow me to move or delete them. Krelvinaz, what was your secret? I saw a clicker.apk and HTC_IME.apk files under the phone data and system folders, even though the apps had been uninstalled in Astro Manager and no longer show(ed) in the Language and Keyboard or in the Applications/Manage Applications settings section. There was only one program called HME IME Test listed in Manage Apps during my troubleshooting searches.
At one time, I did try to load a current version of the clicker.apk, but I got an error message. Is there a clicker calibration utility, for the keyboard and how do I load it.

While I did stumble into a successful keyboard installation, I have spent yet more time to figure out how to change permissions in Root Explorer(RE). Not wanting to complicate a working HTC_IME, I tested my RE ability and changed the startup boot mp3 sound in the system directory. So far, so good. However, I am reluctant to delete the clicker.apk, at this time, hoping I might get some knowledgeable feedback about my question on whether there is a calibration utility, for this keyboard. I cannot remember if I actually ran the clicker.apk, way back when I got the phone. I was unable to install it today, because it already exists in the system, and I would need to remove it first. Still hopeful someone might expand on the keyboard and the clicker.apk.
Rooted Motorola DEFY (2.1) and installed israel pack (in order to display Hebrew fonts) as described in several places on the site. Selected only the fonts option. After reboot, everything is in Chinese fonts. How do I get out of this? I tried to uninstall israelpack but the buttons have text in Chinese so I do not know what to click on.
Need help badly!
Thanks
Update: somehow, after rooting the phone and installing israelpack, I got some malware into the phone - everything was displayed in Chinese and ads for new cars were shown at the bottom.
In my attempts to restore defaults, I also unplugged the battery and ... the lovely English fonts came back!! And when I go to a website with Hebrew text, the text is displayed correctly.
All in order now but I wish I knew what malware was installed and how to get rid of it FOR GOOD.
Chinese？ sounds interesting！
i just bought the LG Optimus G f180k from ebay. It has android 4.0.4. Software version F180k 10k. seller claims it is an unlocked phone for international use, however when i insert my micro sim card it can only make emergency calls. how do i fix this? also, how do i get rid of the korean stuff, eg. my lockscreen has two clocks: one showing seoul's time and one showing my time, how do i get rid of the extra clock? I am completely new to android. im switching from iOS 6. Please understand if this is a stupid/"nooby" question.
Go into your data settings add see if your carriers APN in entered. I'm going to guess its not if only emergency calls are allowed. Or you may have been lied to and the phone is not unlocked.

APN settings not entered. Seller claims the phone is unlocked. The phone came with the olleh mark behind it and a bunch of olleh apps preinstalled. Olleh is a korean phone company. Does this mean the phone is locked to olleh? if so, what can i do to unlock?
try entering your apn settings manually

i finally got the phone to work i had to manually select my network under mobile networks instead of the automatic option. i have another problem however, i just updated to android 4.1.2 via LG mobile update tool and i have a korean keyboard. i tried changing the settings under language and input and it hasnt changed. what do i have to do to get rid of this keyboard? do i have to root phone then flash a custom 4.1.2 ROM?
Have you tried changing language settings to English and unchecking Korean if its checked?
I don't think the f180k has the correct LTE bands for outside Korea.
Where are you located?

Hi. Have you found a way to change your lockscreen yet? I have the same problem. Can't seem to find a way to change the lockscreen clock. It keeps showing local time and Seoul time no matter what I do. I tried everything under Lock Screen Settings including trying all the different Clock and Calendar options, deleted the entry for Seoul under the World Clock, fiddled around with my Network and Date and Time settings, and basically went through every other tab under Systems Settings. I have the exact same phone (Olleh LG F-180K) bought brand new and sealed from an online reseller and this is the only thing that's bothering me. Everything else is smooth as butter even without having updated to JB yet.

Ok... lets see if its help you:
First of all, BACK UP everything!!!
Root your phone, many ways to do.
try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2181103
After that, go to playstore and install "root browser lite" app;
give it a root access;
go to system folder and at the end you'll see a file called "build.prop", make a copy of it.
in the original file, open it with "RB text editor";
find and change this lines:
Those lines bellow are examples, make changes thats suits you better.
ro.build.date=Fri Jan 28 00:43:20 CST 2013
ro.build.date.utc=1361983400
ro.product.locale.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=US
I believe it will stick with your language and local time, after reboot your phone.
in other hand, you can try follow this tutorial to install the latest E975 LG Rom from KDZ.: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287236

Hi
I got some of it.
I needed to download and install driverpack.
Rooted the handset.
I arrived at root genius screen with the three options, then didn't know what to do.
You mentioned about roms.
I'm now a bit confused at what to do next.
Do I need to install something else?
Please continue with instructions.

Has anyone made any further progress with this phone re: recoveries or ROMs?
Hello guys,im looking for a rom to use for the 758,its stuck in loop..
i need one that installs from sd card,you know , .zip file..
anything useful?
thanks a lot!
hi all.
if you need to root this, google Cydia Impactor, download.
enable debugging, connect the phone, and run the above app (cydia).
there is menu to scan device and install driver if you need.
then just click start. then reboot, install superSu from google store
very easy. then you can try re run rootgenius this time it will works (says you already rooted ofcourse).
anyone who can link me to a way to official rom,or any other rom that will make the phone run again?
no other way,only a link to official rom with flasher,or by installing rom from sd card.
