Been trying to get this to work on my Nexus S, whenever I used the voice search facility to send a text or email, it just took me to the internet search page.
Anyway I am based in the UK and by default my Language is English (UK).
You have to change your default, go to: Settings/Voice input&output/Voice recognizer settings and change your Language to English (US). and it now works perfectly!
Hope this helps...

Hello there,
I would like to change the default western European language for outgoing messages in pocket outlook into default Central European Windows.
Thing is, now I need to go into MESSAGE OPTIONS in the MENU and change the language into Central European every time I send a message.
Is there a registry tweak which would enable me to have Central European Windows for ALL outgoing messages?
With WM2003 it was enough to change the general language settings into Polish and automatically all outgoing messages would show CE fonts.
With WM5 this seems not to be the case. If I prepare a message in CE fonts, these would not show when the message is received by the adressee. But maybe a registry tweak would do? Anybody tried already?
My friend [CpD]bob promted me.
I changed HKLM\nls\SystemLCID value date from 409 to 419 (hex) and rebooted.
Now I have russian codepage as default language instead of western european language.
This can use Wizard's owners too.
Thank you DiscoStar. Further to your indication I found out that the value for Polish is 415. However if I change it and I reboot, it comes back to the default 409. Any ideas?
OK, it works. I applied the above tweak using 415 value, I switched the device off and waited 10 secs. After the soft-reset the value stays on 415 and the defalult language for outgoing messages is Central European ISO.
Now the Polish fonts can be read by the receiver.
I guess it did not work in the first place because i didn' switch the device off and didn't wait the 10 secs. I read somewhere that this is needed for flushing the cache.
Thanks for the tip.
Hi Everybody,
I have a UK english touch 2. I went to Thailand recently, but I could not read the sms on the screen. It just showed square blocks for each letter. Is there some type of language setting to read sms, like thai?
Thanks for any tips.
The Thai provider should recognize you are a foreign user so send messages in English.......
There are translation programs but they will not work.....
I use a Thai sim card, so they can not see that I am foreign. I was assuming it was a language problem with the touch2.
Hi,
the default language in my phone is english but i live in an area where all the street names are in french. So when i try to search anything around me in voice search, it doesnt find it since the default voice search is in english.
Is there a way i can keep my phone in english but my voice search and texting in french??
Thank you
Theres a particular problem been having that i just recently found out
My N1 and my mom's 1st gen iphone can send and receive Chinese text messages.
N1 can also receive from everyone but when sent, a lot get symbols instead of the Chinese characters like boxes or stars...
recently tried with a new iphone 4. i can receive their chinese text messages but i cant sent it to them. they get weird symbols.
any ideas why this happens?
I think it's probably because of the unicode setting in the app you use, you would need to change it to the same/common unicode set for chinese characters that other phones use.
Yes, how did you send the text message? By forwarding it or typing it out? Which application did you use to send it? The stock messaging app or a 3rd party app like handcent or chompsms?
And which keyboard did you use to type chinese characters? And is it Traditional or simplified chinese?
I just sent a text message to my colleague successfully by typing in simplified chinese. The keyboard I'm using is Smart Keyboard Pro with ZH chinese installed.
Btw, you should ask this in the Q n A forum instead...
just stock normal text messaging.. the input method i have is google pinyin. i also have hanwriting IME but i forget characters a lot of times so i go with pinyin to type messages.
how do i check the unicode settings on both sides?
Can we know more about your phone? Like whether stock? Or custom rom?
Also what language is your phone in? Check in settings -> Language & Keyboard
stock 2.2.1 build FRG83D
language is english (united states)
That is weird. I just set my phone to English (USA), sent a chinese text message using google pinyin to a nokia phone and it sees the text without fail.
Is there another English with an Asian country in the language settings?
Also are you in Asia or America? It's unlikely but if you are on Google Voice (only in america) there are problems sending non english text on it.
If not, you might have to uninstall google pinyin, reboot the phone and reinstall google pinyin again to try it out.
He can't be using Google Voice to send messages, since the Voice app just gives an error when you try to send Chinese messages.
I'm on T-Mo in the US, and I send Chinese messages to my friends iPhone 3GS without problems.
in the USA, using T-Mobile. No data plan.
can send/receive chinese texts to 1st gen iphone with no problems. other phones like the iphone 4 cant.
I cant seem to enable voice to text input on my Google Keyboard.
When I go to settings to enable Voice Input Key it says "No voice input methods enabled. Check Language & Input Settings" ....
I have done that and Voice input is on "Enhanced Google Services" - The Basic recognition option also fails to enable Voice Input.
My Language is English UK.
But as far as I can see I cant seem to try anything to get it working as I found the feature handy a lot of the time.
It disappeared after upgrading to Lolipop and New Google Keyboard.
any ideas??
