Hi,
The only source I found on the web for my language (Afrikaans) was a language pack for AnySoftKeyboard. (.apk file)
Upon reading further I was able to extract a "dictionaries.xml" file from this .apk.
Is it possible to import this file into either Smart Keyboard Pro or Swype?

how to change the ppc system language in wm5? like transfer tranditional Chinese to simplfied Chinese or Korean to Japanese.
we have to replace the fontbase, but what else i need to do ???
Basically, there are two ways:
1) Install a language pack (if you can find one) which includes MUIs (interface translation files) fonts (if needed) and keyboard(s) (also if needed). Sometimes it also contains a replacement for wince.nls which contains other language specific definitions like date / time / currency format and calendar.
2) Get a ROM in the desired language (if the manufacturer has one) and reflash.
or doing 1 by making the language pack one self
think the packs at buzzdev.net are don by users
I want do it by myself, the developer will not realease that.
Now my purpose is to transfer WM5 English version to simplified Chinese version,so the fontbase must be replace,i dont know what file i need, and which folder to put these files in.which part of the REG i have to edit? i have the simplfied Chinese for wince.nls,and simplfied Chinese fontbase for ac3,but i dont know how to do it.
My goal is not only support simplfied Chinese,i want whole interface of the system are running under simplfied Chinese,please tell me how to achieve this?
Well here are the basics:
1st all the files go under windows.
These are the files you need:
*.ttf - all the fonts you want supported on the system (usually tahoma and courier new)
.xxxx.MUI - these are interface files (menus and dialogs) where xxxx is the LCID number (no idea what it is for Chinese but there is a list somewhere on MS site).
If you can get a ROM dump (you can even use TestWM5.exe by mamiac on this forum) you can use resource hacker to create MUIs in your language. It's fairly easy.
Sorry I don't have the time right now to find all the links, but a quick google search should do it. Also look for posts by asukal on this forum. He did a lot of work on language packs.
Good luck.
LCID for Simplified Chinse is 0x0804, or 0n2052. I'm Chinese...
Please ask so, how to do inside the ROM that then can wrap language to integrate to the equipments, substitute its language?
I've seen that many apps comes with AppName.0409.mui installed in the same folder of the app, usually \Windows.
For who don't have an english OS, usually miss app dialog box string.
I've seen that if u want to have back dialog box string u have to make a copy of AppName.0409.mui and reneme it into AppName.xxxx.mui where xxxx is your contry code (for me, italian, 0410).
But how to have dialog box string in native language?
I've tried with a recent app extracted from touch dual (Action Screen) which have a mui file with only one string. I've used Resource Hack, changed the string, compiled and saved. But... nothing.
In second instance i've changed not only the string but also the language code, compiled, saved and...
So can someone who is skilled make a tutorial for changing app strings?
Sorry for my bad english and thanks in advance for reply.
P.S.: i've read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311078 and also this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307968 but talking about rom, not apps...
I do it like this:
1. Copy the program's executable file to pc.
2. Open the exe with Resource Tuner. I delete all other folders exept Menu, Dialog and String(in these are all the strings for translation) and save the file.
3. Then I open it with resource hacker and push action -> save all recources
4. I open the generated rc file with notepad and replace all the:
LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US(or maybe this is another language)
lines to:
LANGUAGE LANG_GREEK, 0x1 (this is for greek language)
and save the file.
5. After that I open the rc file again, but now with resource builder and I push tools -> Create resource-only dll and I save the file as name_of_file.exe.0408.mui(for greek).
6. Finally I open this file with resource hacker and I translate it
I used to do it in this way cause I have all these three progrs(resource hacker, resource tuner and resource builder)
Maybe there are other progs or ways but this works fine for me until now. If someone knows easier and faster methods I also want to know.
First, thanks for reply.
I was trying to make an easier thing... but maybe i can try this way for my scope.
I've installed HTC Action Screen, you can found it at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336587
It's a cool launcher, nothing more. After installation i can find in \Windows folder two files:
HTCActionScreen.exe
HTCActionScreen.exe.0409.mui
Well in the mui there's only one string that is the top of the launcher screen, that i don't see. I've renamed 0409 into 0410 and now i see the string, the original one in english (some like that "Dial phone number or select a task below:").
I'd like to change in italian, so, i've used resource hacker ONLY for translate the string (as in your 6.) but... i don't see anything once again!!!
Any suggestion?
Have i to start from exe as in your reply?
Thanks again.
This is happens because you cannot change the LANGUAGE line with resource hacker. For this I save the resources in a rc file and adit it with notepad. I had similar problems with some muis that cannot translated before use the method that I described above. You only need resource builder to recompile the rc file to mui again. I don't now in what must change the Language line for Italian, but I think you can find out if you open an italian mui file.
So, i describe my step:
1) open HTCActionScreen.exe.0409.mui with Resource Hacker and and push action -> save all recources
2) open the .rc just created with notepad and changed LANGUAGE LANG_ENGLISH, SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US into LANGUAGE LANG_ITALIAN, SUBLANG_ITALIAN
3) open this .rc with resource builder and push tools -> Create resource-only dll and I save the file as HTCActionScreen.exe.0410.mui
4) open this file with resource hacker and translate it
it doesn't work
Where's my fault?
Maybe have i to sign the file?
hello guys
i want some help so i can remove chinese from my rom for Hurricane (wm6). From what i understand i have the full list of all the files that need deleting such as all files with the name 0804 in them as well as registry keys with 0804 in them, however they are too many to manually delete them all.
How can i create an .nbf file from a .bin file so i can delete the files with the tools provided in this site?
Or if not how can i import the .nbf from my phone?
How can I easily select and delete xml language files which I will not use from a manila set (app. 1000 files)?
You can open all *_manila files with EditPad Lite! I've deleted with this little cool app near about 600 language relatet files! Now I have a cleaned TouchFlo3D with only EN-US (basic language, must be present!!!) and DE-DE!
Language files have a lang="XX-XX" line (where XX-XX is you lang code), so you can easily search for such files!
Thank you very much, happy new year...
Just find the kbdloader.exe and DLLT9SMS.dll.
Optionallly, dictprob.0408.dat and statdict.0408.dat.
All from your Greek HTC windows mobile.
Cook your lovely rom and throw these inside the windows dir.
The rom is supposed to have T9 support.
Make a shortcut to kbdloader.exe and put it inside windows\startup.
All you need now is create a registry file from the attached txt file
by removing the .txt extension,
import it and reboot the windows mobile phone.
Only SMS writing is affected, everywhere else keyboard is normal.
Have fun.

Can you upload these files? I have a WWE HTC device so i can't find them. Thank you
If I do, the post will be deleted, be sure of it. You can try to download htc greek update and unrar.
I only see a few downloads. Did any of you try it?
I personally recommend using it with Resco Keyboard Pro.
These two, together, work like a charm.
