I live and work in Thailand and I have a HD2. I had upgraded the ROM to 1.61 but now my wife wants to be able to use it also but she needs to have the Thai language option. I downloaded the 1.66 ROM from HTC with the country Thailand but it still doesn't have the Thai language option under language. Is there a CAB that I can download somewhere that will install the Thai language on this phone?
Thanks.
In case anyone runs across this post, I had to take the phone back to the dealer and there isn't any all-Thai menu like for most languages but he installed Thai fonts and a Thai keyboard under other so she could send and receive SMS messages and email messages in Thai. I'm sure that there is a cab for it somewhere but I couldn't find one.
Hey Sam
Didnt you get THAIWINCE Professional included with your phone?
I also live in Thailand and once this is installed I can view sms etc and change language so my wife can type sms to send
Not sure if it changes the actual ui language as she has a new phone but you can try it
Actually i just tried and you can change the UI language in the settings under (Touch)

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
for example: RUU_BlackStone_HKCSL_WWE_1.19.831.0_Radio_52.49a.25.26_1.09.25.14_Ship.exe
This is a Hong Kong CSL English Rom.
Can this rom see the traditional/simplified chinese character by default ?
I have try to download the rom, and extract the data from it.
I had no idea if it support displaying the chinese or not...
I am totally new to windows mobile.
The reason I ask this is: I live in HK, I like the English window mobile interface, but I need to see chinese SMS, web browsering and so on...
I don't have this device too, planning to buy one. so...
Really thanks.
Hi there, I am thinking of changing my ROM to the official Asian 1.66 as it has Chinese support built in and I wont have to bloat out my phone with heaps of fonts, apps and progs to be able to read and type in Chinese (simplified)... (I currently use ce star and touchpal & Sogou ime)... can anyone tell me if the date/day is in Chinese while the menus etc can be in English... thanks
Can no one take a screen shot to show me if the calendar dates/days show in Chinese or not... I can do this in the stock 1.66 if I use CE Star and change the region to China... but if the asian roms can do this then voila, I wont have to bloat the phone with all the other third party apps I have to make it work... cheers
rom for 1.66 asian calander still in english.

thanks for the info... sigh, will stick to my wwe rom for now then...
all you need is to change the locale regional settings to chinese,then the date and calendar will display in chinese.
i find it funny that asian version rom only contains english and chinese languages..
because asia has so many different countries just like europe. however each individual country dont get its own roms like they do in europe. and HTC assumes all asians either speak english or chinese.. which is a poor assumption, since there are many asian countries using the Asian Rom, not being able to even SMS or type in their own language on a phone they buy from the shops !!
Installed am Czech language everything with no errors!!!!
Instalation manual:
1.instal cab. opencz_settings.......
2.instal cab. htc_proton_wm...
3.restart phone
4.Selection language
5.instal language
what languages does it contain, please?
already I don't know exactly
Czech,Poland,Romania,EN,Slovak
Are you sure that this is working ?
yes yes on 100%. personally use.
CZ language is perfect but i have problem ...I can´t send MMS after patched
no problem language czech.good seting mms ?
FYI every HD mini ever being sold in Czech Republic already contains Czech language by default (unless bought in other country), theres no reason to do this harakirri, simply choose Czech language instead of English by first time HTC Sense setup, same goes for whole eastern Europe, Poland, Slovak, Hungarian, Slovenian etc etc. If you bought the phone and it already was preinstalled in english, simply run the Sense setup again and choose whatever language u want, its not a matter of phone being localized or not but a matter of HTC Sense being localized. I've sold hundrets of these phones and every single piece had it.
I've just installed PL, works fine, thanks. However I've noticed few bugs. Would you mind giving suggestion how can I edit PL file and correct it? I'd appreciate it. thanks a lot.
