I recently upgraded to Dopod but found that the regional settings did not include the Greek language which means that Greek fonts are not rendered in Internet Explorer.
Does anyone no of a way to add a language to the system?
I have a Greek resco keyboard but ideally I would like to add Greek to the regional settings. Any ideas?
thanks,

Hi,
I have a US T-Mobile MDA, with the standard ROM.
I would like to be able to type text in languages other than english. In particular I'm interested in armenian and russian.
Is this possible? What do I need to do? Is there software that can do this, or maybe some registry tweaks?
I tried the keyboard locale registry tweak from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
but with no success (I found the code for armenian is 042b).
The ideal solution would be, if when I open the soft keybourd, I would have an option of language.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
After many hours of head scratching, I proudly present to you the Greek T9 language pack for BenQ E72.
What made the whole process difficult was:
1. The phone has WM6 Standard with no ROMs/Dumps available. From my research there are at least three different WM6 ROMs: one for Asia (the original one), one for Australasia (the one every phone bought from eXpansys has) and one for a British GSM operator. WM6 has some peculiarities regarding signed code among these ROMs and this affects T9 IME as well. That's the main reason for the difficulty in supporting more languages than the ones in ROM and why packages from NiTroGenious and melgurth do not work (and every other version of T9 Greek LDB I could find...).
2. Due to no ROM availability, it's impossible to cook a new ROM as information about system internals (bootloader, etc) is scarce therefor it's impossible - for now - to create a cooked ROM that would overcome issue (1) and would allow us to overcome the issues of signed code (plus we could update in WM6.1).
To install the Greek T9 language, use the attached .cab file. Install it in the phone memory and reboot. The cab file will update the T9 core files with signed files and install a signed Greek T9 LDB. It will also remap T9 system wide, so that sequential keyboard presses (like searching through Contacts) will use the current T9 setting. It will also update the GSM operators list in Greece. The system does not localize the OS.
Please post problems/suggestions in this thread.
If there is enough interest, I will create additional language packs.
Many thanks to NiTroGenious and melgurth for their help.
Enjoy your BenQ E72.
Additional language packs
If possible can you create a package with Portuguese, English and Spanish languages. Also can you explain me what tools you use to create the cab and where you find the signed version of the dll. Hope to have some news from you soon. Kind regards.
You can find an updated T9 package for the following languages, here.
- English
- French
- German
- Greek
- Italian
- Portuguese
- Spanish

I have a PDF in Chinese, if anybody knows how to translate, together with all files mentioned in the PDF (P21DTDownloadtool etc...) and an Australasian WM 6.1 ROM. I have tried to flash myself, but can't get pass the PASSPORT application due to the txt file for the Passport being in Chinese and my Windows XP is English.
If anybody wants files & ROM then tip me the wink and I will upload it to my Webspace.
PDF is here...

The Portuguese T9 it's not working at all. I think the problem is that when you select Portuguese he setup the country language code as 0406 (Portuguese Brasilian) instead of 0816.

Hello,
The Portuguese T9 is set up as 0816, not 0406.
Are you sure you are using an E72 with the eXpansys ROM? The system will (probably) not work with other ROM versions.
Hi,
I bought my E72 on Expansys, so I think I'm using the correct ROM. For example if you go to T9 menu and go to T9 Settings-Help you find that Portuguese T9 is not loaded. On my E72 I don't see any reference to Portuguese T9 version, all the other languages packages are present there.
I continued thinking that the problem appears to be on the country code. Take a look on the registry dump.
Regards.
Hi,
I've uploaded an updated version of the E72 T9. There was an issue with the Portuguese LDB file and it's reference in the registry. The string was 'PortugeseLdb.dll' instead of 'PortugeseLdb.dll'. The language codepage is correct, according to Microsoft LCID table (0816 for Portuguese).
As always, your E72 should be fully application unlocked before applying this updated T9.
Re-download the new file from the above link and post your results there.

Cannot run .cab files - WM6.5 phone
Hi,
I have an E72 phone. The details are WM6.5 CE OS 5.2.21234 build 21812.5.0.50.
As per post #21, I am trying to run the .cab file for enabling English T9 feature and I am getting the following error.
“Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permission”
I have placed the .cab file under "My Documents".
Please help me.
Also, how to edit the registry of a CE phone? Please explain the steps.
regards,
Lucky

Hey,
I'm using WM6 on a p3600i and am wondering if there is any way to install foreign language fonts for use in SMS?
I don't need to write in another language, I just need to be able to read it.
(If it makes a difference, it's Thai).
Thanks
Michael
I've found my answer. For anyone looking to install Thai, you can get the file located at http://pdamobiz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=78272&KW=PDAMobizThaiEnable
No idea for other languages
I have been testing the Registry tweak to chenge the Rom language, and after some tests I have discovered that if we change the Rom language we lose the notification sounds (Like SMS sound).
So I tested with the attached files I had from a 6.5 ROM from my olg HD. And after copying the files to Windows dir and change the Reg code to Portuguese all is working fine now including notifications.
Attached is a Zip file with all the files needed and a small text file with instructions.
If you want to use this files for another language diferent from Portuguese, all you have to do is to rename the "0816" code from the end of each file to the code from your language.
I hope this is usefull.
And works with all languages? (E que eu nao queria colocar PT )

Yes, works with all languages if you change the registry to your language code d the files in my Zip to the same code and then copy them to windows dir. It works.
The registry is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\MUI\CurLang and change the value 409 to 408 (Hex) (for example Greek) or try another value for your language. You can find all Windows Locale Codes here: http://www.science.co.il/Language/Locale-Codes.asp
Any way to just have T9 work with Portuguese without changing anything else to Portuguese?

Tnis is surely useful, thanks !
Question : Will this, apart from restoring notifications, have more
screens translated to the respective languages ?
If one hacks the registry now, only the "main tabs" in Sense are translated, as soon as you press a menu it's Dutch or German or whatever language again.
Q2 : If someone can do it for a Dutch ROM that would be great. I've just lend out Touch HD as HD2 arrived.
Hello my friends,
I just bought my new HD2 and i tried the way as you said. I didn't copy anyt file, i just changed the registry , and now the menu and ferw more things are in my language. The only problem that rem,ains is the Keyboard. Instead of puting anothet program for Keyboard , can i correct also this one? I use for example the Greek language.

This work on changing the manila screen languages, it doesn't change the inner part, ie: new sms or new appointment, the input still in english.
I just try a minutes ago and the result is only change the manila language no the hole language in the device.
You have to delete the old ones form the Windows folder?
thanks a lot.
Hi,RRibeiro,doesent work for me,I changed 0409 with 0418,in all your files,copy all in windows and....no notification sound for sms ;-(

Are you certain that you made the registry changes well? I only tested with Portuguese, but in the place where I got those files there were a message saying that it is compatible with all the languages.
yes,I'm sure
Does not change language to Bulgarian (0402). All i need is the keyboard layout not localized menues. And don't offer please any additional keyboards - I've tried them all. Like best the built-in.

Do you mean change 0408 to 0409?
