Hi everyone,
I've just flashed the xiaomi.eu rom 9.4.25. First thing I wanna do is enable full screen mode and gestures, but I can't find the option anywhere in the settings menus
Can anyone help me out? Maybe have to mention: Didn't root the device!
Would've asked at xiaomi.eu directly but the forums don't really seem to work today.
Cheers!
Nevermind, I've found it... Tried changing language to English and then searched for it with phone's search. Found it and after I used it it now also is listed in the settings menu, where before I could swear it wasn't

Hi, I have a newbie question about android
Recently I've bought a new galaxy w. I've turned it on and figured out that it has a support of English and Malaysian language.
I'm a russian native speaker, so I would like to change a ui to russian language.
I mean not just being able to type sms in russian, but the whole ui (like application names, menues, and so on).
So, I would like to know how conceptually it can be done?
Is it just a matter of changing some locale related files or I need to install something?
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi, Thanks a lot for the answer and sorry for the late reply
I've installed this application, but it seems like it provides only partial solution.
I saw that some applications really were named in russian (like google maps and google play)
But it did nothing with menus and icons on the bottom of the screen (phone, contacts, and so on).
When I chose Settings -> Language I don't see russian language and I guess this is the problem. I understand that more locale application only changes the locale and its good enough for applications having internationalization support by themselves but it doesn't affect the whole UI language of the system.
The issue looks deeper than only installing the right locale.
Meanwhile I've read about different ROMs available. I'm still vague on details but can ROM installation resolve the problem? If so, what ROM should I install?
Some more details that can shed some light:
- I'm located in Israel and the phone is bought there
- Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-perf-I8150DXMLM3-CL1103265
[email protected] #3
-Baseband version
I8150DXLC1
- Android version 2.3.6
-PDA I8150 DXLM3 (to obtain this I used *#*#1234#*#*)
Disclaimer, I'm quite a technical guy (programmer with ~15 years experience) so stuff like rooting the phone and installing custom modes of os version doesn't scare me, I just only never dealt with android phones
Thanks a lot in advance
Hi,
After reading and learning a little bit, I've tried to root the device, but with no luck
I tried all 3 methods I've found
here
but no one didn't really work
I'm quite sure I did everything like it was explained.
In the first method it wrote me the the update.zip was installed successfully, but after the reboot the phone wasn't rooted.
I've paid attention that in logs (accessible through recovery console there are a lot of messages of type:
failed to open /sys/class/android_usb/android0/state - looks like its an invalid path.
So any help will be appreciated here
Thanks
OK. It looks like after a couple of hours I've got a root access to the phone.
Thought someone can be interested...
I've used the first method and it didn't work.
I've made factory reset (also available in recovery console) and then came across mounting option in menu.
So I've mounted everything I could there and then re-applied the update.zip. Rebooted the phone and now it seems to have a root access (I have a superuser application).
Now the next challenge will be installing the ROM with russian language native support (in android jargon "flashing" ) with Odin.
I've downloaded a firmware from sammobile.com. And planning to use this tutorial
And I believe I'll be happy with my russian language
Since my experience with this stuff now is impressive _one_ day, so
could someone point me whether i'm in the right direction at all?
Thanks
Install the latest firmware XXLM8, i think it support russian language via the tutorial how to install via odin, then u will need to use the first method to root the firmware again...thats all

Thanks a lot!
It looks I did exactly as you wrote, and it worked great
I didn't find XXLM8 firmware on sammobile, instead I used XXLM6 which is also good enough for my needs.
Thanks a lot for your help, mohza!

Hi, does anyone have a link to, or are they willing to upload their stock Motorola XT532 firmware?
For a start, it must be in English or at least have an English Language option and also preferably include the Google Play Store application and relevant system applications for adding your Google account.
I have just bought an XT532 from China and it did have an English language option, however after trying to install a Google Store.apk and add an account, its seems to have soft bricked its' self (wont get past the Moto logo upon turning on). So I need the stock firmware so I can flash it back... any help guys?
Note: I did see another thread with links to the Taiwanese stock ROM, but most if not all of the links were dead and I don't know if they include an English language option anyway.

Hello Need a rom wit spanish please help
Yesterday, I updated my P6 to KitKat (From B111 to B125; to B132 and finally B510). However, I lost the quick toggles and can't find 'em anywhere.
I do remember disabling them before I updated, I'm not sure how that's affected things. Is there anyway to get them back?
Thanks in advance!
Hi, could you solve your problem, I think of the same thing ... I posted on various forums from various countries and no one has an answer ...
Hey everyone. I've upgraded my G3 to Lollipop last week and I have a question. In KitKat was the Guest Mode option, seems like now is gone from settings. Can I create a new profile with restricted apps now? And if I can, how?
Thank you.

Thanks for your reply, but I can't figure out how to restrict apps to that user (e.g. let that user open some of my dowloaded apps, but not all; hope you get it).
Searched a little, seems like I'm talking about 'Restricted Profile' option and, as I've read, this feauture isn't available on Lollipop for phones.
Anyway, can you give me any ideas?
First off; apologies for my ignorance here, but I haven't done anything in regards to flashing custom or official roms since I had my Galaxy Tab S (T700).
I have a TMO Galaxy S9 and would like to be able to change my display language to Norwegian. Now, obviously, that isn't an option for US models; so, I'd need a Euro rom.
Are we able to flash official roms from other regions without any serious issues? Does the 960U, or whatever it is, rom have Norwegian as an option?
Thanks for any input!
EDIT: Yea, I'm an idiot. I didn't see the 3 dot menu where I could select "show all" languages.
