thank you for your reply!
Do you mean flash the all OS or just the language file?
and with what kind of programs I can flash the mobile?
Before this smartphone, I had a sony K750i and with that wasn't difficult unlocking the phone and flashing filesystem and main, but with this Niki and windows OS I'm a little be lost.
Is there any tutorial or thread which explain the basic of NIKI?
thanks a lot
i think u have to flash all OS....u can wait for a new niki release 6.1. by niki project (just looking for 3d) or flashing with the actual release:
Remember before you flash check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355730 your phone should be hardSPL otherwise you will brick your phone.
flash with HTCAsia WEE ROM check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356308
Halo!
I did buy a HTC CRUISE from Taiwan, and it is in Tradional Chinese language!
but i want to let my phone can read Thai Language!
i did install Thai Win CE at my phone, but it could not work, even if my Chinese can't read eigher.
Does it any way to let my phone can read and type Thai?
thanks a lot!
Yes. Go to www.pdamobiz.com and look 4 pdamobizThaienabled to read thai and if u want to type thai too install resco multilanguage keyboard..
Or leave your email and i'll see what i can send to you...
or you could flash mobiz 990F ROM that comes with thai language.
Welcome to Polaris Club at www.pdamobiz.com
can someone recommend a rom from them??
there are so many different...
great would be a WWE version with thai input and regional settings

SO WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?
THANKS A LOT!!
AND ALSO ONE THING HAPPENED, SOME OF MY PROGRAM CAN'T WORK ANYMORE AFTER I INSTALL pdamobizThaienabled.

Hi, I'm a new user. Just bought my phone but in Germnay and it's XDA from O2 operator. It has only german language! The dude from the shop said that I can change the language only with a software change. Where can I find an english version? How to install it?
ROM - 1.40.207.2 (49069) GER
ROM date - 04/28/09
Please help
Normally, the interface of Manila can be changed. Check out this thread:

If you want to change only the language of Manila, thats the solution.
If you need your whole phone in english, then you should
1) Flash HardSPL (special software that allows you to put any language and any version of Windows Mobile on your phone)
2a) Check at WIKI Shipped ROMs for an english version that matches your region.
or
2b) Select from one of the Cooked ROMs with more speed, more stability.
I'm not sure but in czech release of topaz you can change language version. After hard reset there is menu for selecting english version or for installing localization. Topaz install czech environs by first use after hard reset from two cab files.
Hi again. I don't understand anything of that what you said. This is my first phone with WM. Please someone explain what I should do step by step.
I have installed the Total commander CE on the device but I can't find the directory HKEY....

Ok, so you need your phone complete changed from German language to English language.
First step:
You need to enable your phone to accept WM with a different language. Follow the instructions of this post.
Second step:
As you are complete new to WM and this type of phone, I propose that you change to an official HTC WM in English. The most actual official WM for the Diamond2 is Version 1.39.405.3.
You just start the exe file and it will upgrade your phone to an English version.
But this upgrade will only work if you successfully installed the HardSPL from step 1.
I use PHM registry editor. Just open it and in string HKEY_CURRENT_USER\MUI\CurLang is hexadecimal key with value for german 0407, so change it to 0409 for english (US english). It will change TF3D language only.
After hard reset at first turning on there you should have options for english or installing german localization. If you have got original german ROM ( without local cabs) there is one way only. You have to flash new ROM with WWE.
edit: like BeeGee_Tokyo said

OK. Well I do it but on step 7 it came a fatal error message : "please make sure the device is properly synced; Please retry after syncing the device (via Activesync or Windows mobile Device center)" and there is only "OK" as an option to proceed. But the phone is connected in WM device center.

Which one did you download and try?
Topaz-HardSPL_V3_01R2.zip
Topaz-HardSPL_V3_01R2__NC.zip
SSPL-Manual-TopazV3_05.zip
Option 1 and 2 run from your PC
Option 3 you have to copy the SSPL-Manual-TopazV3_05.exe to your phone and start it there.
I do not know Windows Vista, (or Window 7, not sure what you use). One of the 3 options should work.

Well I use Vista Ultimate. I tried option 1 and 2 but the result was the same - a fatal error message.
Step 3 - when I start it on the phone, the phone freezes and nothing happens.

hello everyone, nice to meet all of you
I have one minor problem: just upgraded to the official ROM 1.39.479.2 (49068) WWE and "lost" the Romanian language. is there any possibility to choose the language ? (now it is in English)
apparently I have made a mistake by ugrading the ROM: saw no difference, only lost the Romanian interface

Check the WIKI page. There is a ROM for Eastern Europe. Its listed under WWE ROM's, but has the same number: RUU_Topaz_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.39.479.2_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.20t.25.10_3.43.25.19_Ship.exe

Forget my last message, it was too late yesterday. of course you do not want to flash the same english ROM again.
Try to find someone with a Topaz which is still in Romanian language. Dump the ROM, (I can support) and rebuild the ROM for reflashing (I can support).

Do you see any chance to dump the ROM of another Topaz with Romanian language? Then I can help you.
Maybe you know someone else with a Topaz in Romanian language.

Hello,
I have this phone but have a problem- how to set English display language. I read in this forum - i must find a English rom... or... i am not shure. Can u help me?
/sorry for my english/
Thanks a lot
you can not change the language in windows mobile, you have to use an English ROM.
unfortunately, Acer has not yet released ROM updates, nor are there custom ROMs available yet. But check back the forum regularly, there is one in the making.
oh...
Just wait... right?
Can i install only English language? or... just update something?!?
you need to flash a different ROM, if you want a different language, period.
a device can only contain a single language a time, so you need to install a different Windows Mobile (in form of a ROM image). Why haven't you bought an English device to begin with?
I bought it from ebay. There is no information to display language.
Just one last question- can i install ROM from other model phone?
no.
you need one specific for the neoTouch S200.
Did you try to change regional settings (start, settings, system, regional settings). I always had an english device but this maybe will help you so you can read english.
What language do you have?
While waiting for an english rom, you may install/try SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 which works fine on S200 and choose enlish as your language. This will help you alot. At least you will use your mobile decent.
Freco, thanks !!!!
I will check SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 ... and will wait for rom.
You are the man!!! thank you again!!!
You can change language... but its a little bit tricky...
You need mui files for language you want eg 0415 are for polish language then change some registry entries...I've made polish language for TG01 and the only problem are settings from Toshiba(they don't use mui files ;/)

Hi All!
2 days ago i bought S200 and now i have the same problem
It`s french WM and it's .....aaaah no comment :/
I need english language (or polish)
I will try install SPB maybe it helps me for a few days...
But if someone will find english WM for s200 please share somewhere...
Now, I have s200_1.002c.00_fr
maybe some one can find s200_1.002c.00_en somewhere...
First You must know how to hard reset Your phone with button combination (messing with registry entries can lead to the hangups or make your system unbotable) second so far i know changing language on french/german TG01 to the English made system unbotable(that was Toshiba Keyboard SIP problem) and didn't translate much of the system... i didn't seen anywhere english mui files so easier would be to translate language to Your native using mui files from rom with close build number with one installed on Your phone
Hi everyone!
First of, as first time poster I'd like to say thankx to everyone who maintains this site and everyone who contributes with everything, from they're kitchen's best meals to any crazy ideas, I've been taking advantage of that for last month or so
But for this one I've found no answer, so here goes:
Yesterday I bought an Acer S200 F1 neoTouch yada yada yada...
I live in Portugal, so it comes with portuguese version of WM 6,5 which is horribly translated, making me, therefore, prefer the english version. I've never actually seen one of these with english version for sale here.
So I went around fishing for a way to change the language, I downloaded the official english version rom update from Acer's website, extracted it, replaced the ACER_EUU.exe with the cracked one, and it flashed smoothly.
However, EVERY SINGLE TIME I turn on the phone it hangs up, sometimes on the WM logo, sometimes during network search (shortly after WM is loaded I guess). Then it reboots all by itself, and then it works sort of ok.
I think I've described the process quite extensively, obviously, either I'm doing something wrong, or this method is not even supposed to work.
So I flashed the portuguese version back to the phone using the exact same method as described above, only not with english rom of course, and it is back to working as it should... in awful badly translated and cropped portuguese.
Should anyone know a way to get around the hang-ups I get with the english version, I'd be so grateful!
Cheers!
Why don't you try one of the Rafyvitto's roms. They are english and good looking.
Indeed. I'm using v2.7-vanilla, no crashes to date.
But I'm kind of obsessive, and rafyvitto's roms althought working much like they should, they have stuff built in which I think have no business being there. In this vanilla 2.7, as an example, title bar makes no sense as WM already has it's own way of doing the same (I think) I'm a noob to WM, so this might be a complete nonsense. Then there are bugs, such as the keyboard not showing/hiding properly during a call (I have to tap the button as if double clicking, and the button's description displays a wrong message ("hide" when it's hidden, "show" when it's being shown already) and sd-card encryption can't be turned off.....
Small things which make my day a little worst
Still, I appreciate rafyvitto's work, as the possibility of choice he provides us with is priceless =)
EDIT: as of the release of the new official rom's from acer (EUU_Acer_S200_3.003b.00_EN_03.03.08_3.003.01_20100119.zip) I am able to change the language from portuguese to english without the hangups I mentioned earlier!

are there mui files for every part of the os? like settings, programs, clock, messaging etc?
would it be possible to take the mui files from a german rom rename them from mui.0407 to 0409 install a new english rom and replace the mui files with the german renamed ones?
of course with a programm that allow replacing rom files like resco explorer or total commander?
if so maybe i even could get some german htc manila mui files from originial htc leo rom and rename and replace the ones of the acer s200 leo roms to have a part german rom ?
I got an HD2 from eBay seller in Hong Kong. The phone arrived and everything was in English on first start just like I hoped.
However, there is still the Chinese keyboard on the device (Pin Yin or something).
Can someone tell me how to remove the Chinese keyboard?
I asked this question in past, but with no luck. sorry

yes, everything is in English. just we can type in Chinese as well..
Yeah I can type in both English and Chinese, but I'd rather just remove the Chinese part to make it easier when switching keyboards.
The ROM that came installed is already WWE, everything is in English except that I can also type in Chinese on the keyboard.

Yes it would be great if I can use with HK ROM without those stupid input methods. when you have too many input methods, some are pushed to the cascase menu "other input methods". However, they (Pinyin etc) does not appear as separate entities to things like SKTools, so I have no idea how to disable them.
