[Question] Dictionairy differ from phone language - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi,
I'm from The Netherlands,
But i prefer my phone to be english.
But this also changes the spell check for the keyboard (using the htc touch input)
is it possible to change just the language for the spell check in the keyboard, without changing the language of the entire OS?

You can do that by following this procedure:

Just remember to use 0 (English) instead of 8 (Danish).

Multiple Languages?

Hey everyone! I have the HTC Touch Dual with 20 keys, but I have a problem. See, I've been living here in Spain for about 4 years now, and I had a blackberry prior to this purchase, with a full qwerty keyboard, so I had no need to change between languages and such. So my question is if there is a way to have both dictionaries (English + Spanish) together. I saw a friend with his iphone, he had both languages installed at once. I'm wondering if there's any way to use the predictive writing tool while having it look through 2 languages at once. Is that possible? Thanks!
Kent.
just a thought, but maybe merging the two languages in the xt9 language file?
OMG! Do you know how to do this!? Is there a way to do this!? Wooo you just got me sooo excited
any results?
Hi guys, have you tried copying two different language files into one? Does it slow down the XT9 recognition (memory...)?
If you have identified the location and name of the files to merge, plz let me know.
Thx.

I just put in 14 in 1 language XT9 pack, and it works great, but still a pain when I have to switch languages everytime I want to type in a different language. Is there a way to remove languages that you don't want?

Can you briefly explain what you did?
If I unterstand correct, you _did_ copy multiple files into one (which and where?) and it seems to be working for you.
So why do you have to switch languages now? Shouldnt you be able to simply type and the T9 file (containing multiple language data bases) recognises possible matches from either of the contained languages?
2)
Proposal: Is there a chance to write a brief macro toggling between languages and make it configurable by a simple GUI to choose the language files to switch?
-> any takers for this challenge? Thx.

Well, I just found that 14 in 1 cab, installed it, and restarted. Worked great! And STILL Works great! But now I have 14 languages I'd like to get rid of 12 of them Any ideas?
What I was saying is that what I have to do is click and hold the asterisk, bring up the menu, click XT9 Languages and then click the language I want. I wish there was a way to do it faster.

HELP - Keyboard issue

Hello XDA
I have just noticed that the "?" key (FN P) is not typing the ? but an ";". Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Fn P on my UK QWERTY X1 has ; on the keyboard. ? is at the bottom and doesn't need the Fn key.
Wierd,
Mine has the ? mark on the P key in blue. There must be a setting then for this somewhere in the OS
Austrian QUERTZ has the "?" on "Fn"+"P" and the ";" is "SHIFT"+","
Seems you have an English ROM installed but you would need a German one.
ok my keyboard is:
"?" on "Fn"+"P" the ";" is on "SHIFT"+"," the "+" is on "Fn"+"N". Any ideas
You have flashed UK rom on non UK device, that is your problem. Most of non UK X1 have localized keyboards and they will work ok only with org language rom. The only way for you is to find keyboard driver and swap it to your X1 orginal language.
Ok I just did a hard reset and it flashed itself. So I need to reload it somehow?

Are you kidding me?
Does not changing CurLang value work on X1?
Go to HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD and there find CurLang value. You need to open the file and change the 1033 to the value of your device. I do not have the values here, but they are on XDA, please search the forums for the answer.
Where is your device from?
I assume that Austrian and German layouts are the same.
Go to the key I posted above and change it to 1031, close your reg editor and there probably is not even soft reset needed...
EDIT: If that gives the wrong layout try 3079 after that. (I do not know of this code is supported)
Under the device settings it shows GENERIC_UK... Other then that no idea, I do know the manuals came in some other language.. so not sure.
Use registry editor program, like the free Total Commander and do as I posted earlier.

(Note that I am guessing that your device has the German QWERTZ layout?)

I just tested this and it does work. Changing CurLang to 1031 changes the layout to QWERTZ and "?" is under "P" etc... Soft reset needed after change.
People please use the SEARCH on the boards. All these type of problems most likely have been addressed in other devices.

I got total commander installed, where do I find the registry at? Currently I am seeing a directory listing.
go to \\plugins, there is registry folder...
Well we are close! now the z and the y keys are backwards. Any other numbers to try? Thanks!
Ok then your device is not with German layout?

What country is this device from, that would help you know... Did you bought it used?
Bought it brand new from someone on Amazon, not sure what country it was from other than the booklets where not in English.

Best thing would be that you find out what country your device is from, the booklets should give you that info...
I think that you have bought a device that had a English rom installed by the seller and he did the right localization for it. Now that you did a hard reset everything went back to the original rom setup.
This will be no problem when you find out where your device is from.
Does it have a carrier branding?
Ok it looks like the manuals are in Swedish Language... Viktig Information is written on the main manual.
Also
Sweden address on the back of one of than manuals

Footprinter on Jade.

It's possible add footprint function at our JAde?
Thanks.
Yes that's possible, i have it installed and it works, read this:

BTW...you could have used the excellent search button of this forum and would have found your answer in a minute.
I have installed the file tomtom compatible but not work.
It's perhaps my rom is in italian language?
Thaks
Yep tatoone, rename the 2 footprintfiles (windows directory) with language code in the language code of your device:
FootCam.exe.0409(original, english) --> FootCam.exe.0413(example for dutch)
HTCFootprint.exe.0409 --> HTCFootprint.exe.0413 (also dutch)
I dunno the Italian code, but i'm sure its around here somewhere
which cab did you download and install, Nirak? I have installed KDKobes Footprints TomTom Supported.cab and it indeed works, but the app seems to be upscaled for VGA instead of Jade resolution QVGA. When I get the window after taking a photo, I only see half the dialogs and cannot read what is being asked
Furthermore, my phone seems to be sluggish after install of this cab.
Edit: I found and tried this QVGA version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340932 which works on my Jade! But you should change the region as Nirak mentions, though, before it will work on your phone. The menu options are in English, even after changing the language code..
Also: this cab is only 4MB instead of KDKobes 16MB. ONe thing to remember is, that this cab doesn't ask where to install (Phone or SD) but installs on the phone. It also by default uses Google maps for positioning. Haven't found out how KDKobes' version uses TomTom, but I prefer using TOmTom instead of Google maps. Can't find how to change that.. but I'm playing with it..
BTW: The Footprints icon can be found in Programs > Multimedia > Footprints (I thought it wasn't in the Programs section, but found it!)

sas_sas....this is where you can find the files you need to rename, just put your own language code instead of the default english one.
Ths a lot Nirak,
Renaming the two files to our own language code...
It seems it is easy, but is not it silly?
I am Turkish, living in Azerbaijan now, visiting several countries business purposes from time to time..
What language code I need, Where to find the all those code nos?
Is there a way to remain in English code which I am much more customised ?/
Sas_sas you only need to rename those two files once to the language which is installed on your device, i guess (am not very technical) just to enable the application to work with your country specific ROM.
If you have a WWE (WorldWideEnglish) ROM on your device you shouldn't have to change it at all, it should work.
If you have a Turkish ROM your language code is: 041f
The papago version is also for vga too.
Pity...

It is clear now. It should fit to the Rom language. Need renaming as per to the Rom language..

[REQ] HD2 Greek support

Hello,
Is it possible to extract the new Greek keyboard (SIP) and T9 from the newly released WM6.5 ROM for htc Topaz and use it in Leo?
I've tried - unsuccessfully - to do so, in order to install the Greek keyboard and T9 LDB to my Leo. The Leo comes with ROM 1.43.405.1 WWE.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello again.
Is it possible to include a Greek T9 dictionary with this Greek keyboard?
Keep in mind that there is a limitation on that. You can not send 160 greek characters per sms with this keyboard yet, it is limited to 70. We are searching for a solution on that.

The greek keyboard as well as the greek T9 are already pre-installed in your device. Some image files are missing however, and as a result of that you can not activate Greek language unless you either install the missing images (tsipistri's post) or modify the greek xml files to link to the english images.
These 2 solutions are posted here
I have not tested T9 with tsipistri's solution yet, but with the changed xml files T9 works flawlessly.
Regarding 160 sms, it seems right now that there is no ability for the ezinput application to write in GSM encoding. So, if you need 160 sms you can use Finger keyboard.
Hmmm Greek affiliates from Cosmote and from Chios island....
Well the Greek Leo ROM is out on my hands lads...why such an effort for extra cab files...

This will be possible with either a new SMS-oriented on-screen keyboard or a in-memory solution patch (like the one used by ACE Hellas) where non-GSM characters are swapped with the correct ones.
For the time being, I have no problem sending Greek SMS of 160 by simply employing some common logic: typing always in UPPERCASE English and switching to Greek uppercase only for the non-latin characters.

Amazing idea! It works. I know how to fix it now.
Stay tuned for a working version with 160 sms. I will release it very soon.

Instructions
1) Uninstall any other version of this or tsipistri's keyboard
2) Install the attached cab file
3) Click on the white box next to the space bar in order to change between Greek and English Unicode letters.
4) From either English or Greek keyboard click on 12# box in order to write sms with 160 Greek capital letters
5) All removed symbols have been relocated to ABC menu or to page 2 of 12# menu
I am now working on an alternative version that will include 3 different keyboards (Greek, Greek SMS & English)
Great job Step2p, I will try it when I'm back home
Thank you very much for your efforts.
A red skin version with some bugs corrected.
If you haven't noticed it yet, long press entries are already activated in the sms keyboard. If you long press the capital letters you will enter the symbols that normally appear above them.
The file size is larger due to the included skin images.

Hi Step2p.
Many thanks for providing this nice keyboard.
There seems to be a problem when using it though, described originally here. The thread suggests that the problem is related to a registry hack, however, I have confirmed that I have the same problem irrespective of the registry setting. I am only noticing this behavior when using the greek keyboard.
Do you think you could have a look?

Allowing the HD2 to show different language ??

Hey all,
I was just wondering if there is a way to allow HD2 to show messages (sms/email/websites) with languages other than English (e.g. Arabic)
Is it possible to show different languages WITHOUT changing the GUI language of the phone ?
Is it possible to add an option to switch between keyboards of different languages (keyboard characters) ?
I heard that we should wait until HTC releases such software, but im not sure if this is correct, can anyone confirm this ?
Thank you very much
I read this topic ; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401966
But that changes the language of the GUI, I only want the phone to "read" a different language. How can I do that ?
