Can I use this to write chinese in text messaging and send chinese text?
or would you know any software where I can actually write chinese in the text message.
Yes you could, with Maction Chinese
It can also display Chinese character in Today plugin, etc etc.. Only thing is, don't have too many false hope on these thing. Like me, I was hoping that it could sync my Contact that's in Chinese character with my Outlook that's in English. All those will becomes "??" mark, damn!!

ActiveSync does not seem to use Unicode as its means of communication. Instead, it uses the default encoding as per Windows' setting. If you have your setting set to English (United States), but have Chinese on your PPC, then it's not going to work.
It is possible to change this setting, but be aware of the consequences before doing so...
1) Open the "Regional & Language Options" dialog: Start->Settings->Control Panel->Regional and Language Options
2) Select the Advanced Tab. Read the details on the screen. Note: Changing this setting can have seriours consequences, as the default encoding of characters is changed. This means that characters other than the first 128 ASCII characters may appear differently in files after this setting is changed. Use with caution Change the setting to the language that you have installed on your Pocket PC. For example, I have "Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R.). Click OK.
3) Reboot
4) Resync with ActiveSync.
>>> Update Note: The prior post was made with regard to ActiveSync 4.2, and with a WM2003SE ROM. These details may not be correct with regard to WM5 and the latest version of ActiveSync. It seems Windows Mobile 5 has better support for Unicode synchronisation.
I remember hearing about a chinese software called CE Star. Google for it..
There are two main issues here:
1) A Chinese language system that allows display of text in Chinese, along with Chinese input (for which PenPower/CE Star and Monster Chinese are solutions), and
2) The ability to synchronise data between Outlook and the PPC without losing the characters during synchronisation (eg. when inputting "龘龗蘇" as a name on the PC, avoiding it appearing on the PPC as "???").
To solve problem (1), look at PenPower or Monster Chinese. These products install a Chinese font on your system allowing display of Chinese characters, along with one or more SIP (soft input panel) items to allow input of text.
To solve problem (2), refer to my previous post in this thread (up two posts).
I feel kinda silly.
I have two problems which I am not sure how to fix...
I have contacts, in my BA, that are in Greek (names, addresses and so on). I also have events in my calendar which are in Greek.
I have the latest activesync and Outlook 2003
Now, when I sync, all the events come over BUT the ones in greek are not in Greek! They are in gibberish! Then when I sync again, the data on my BA becomes gibberish! Is there anyway to fix this problem?
The second problem is this:
When I get an SMS from people using non windows mobile phones (Nokia and SonyEricsson seem to be the most used) and when someone sends me an SMS in Greek, it seems that characters, that are not existent in other latin languages, get dropped from the message, and in their space there is a blank spot.
So for example (all caps) if someone sends me:
Alpha Pi Omikron Sigma Tau Omikron Lamda Eta Sigma
(sorry the board did not accept the unicode)
I would get
A O T O H (because those capitals letters are common in both latin based alphabets and greek alphabets).
Any idea how to fix this?
Thank!
Hi all,
My XDA Mini S G4 is now running the most up to date WM5 ROM from O2's web site.
I want to be able to read sms messages in hebrew so I installed Ectaco's hebrew language support in trial mode (allows you to read but not to write, which is just what I need). the thing is messages are displayed left-to-right whereas Hebrew is read right-to-left ( i.e. the message shows "csid" instead of "disc", only in hebrew).
is there a way to fix it?
sorry for the late response. I think you'll have to purchase either Eyeron or PDAC hebrew support. Both are Israeli companies and offer full support.
I have Any Sofy Keyboard Hebrew installed on my Hero, however almost everything connected to contacts, mainly browsing & searching them - is not working. Only the English contacts are searchable.
Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?
Thanks
Gal
hi
first u can sorcut "People" to your phones desktop
the any soft key works fine there if you use the search
second you can download from the market the "aContact" app
and set it as default app for the Phone button.
dont forget to set the T9 lang to hebrew and check the RTL box
good luck
