Moderators are pleased to move this topic if I posted it to wrong forum, sorry.
I was shocked when tried white-energy's Feather Desire HD Build with the 100% translated Serbian language. Tried some more ( Bulgarian, German ) and found them perfect too. While waiting for white-energy to support ext4 data partition on SD card I decided to try andrewf403's AF403 DesireHD rom. I've installed Gingerbread keyboard ( search Marketplace for "Keyboard from Android 2.3" ) there and got the same results as with Feather Desire HD Build. Now, the catch is ( thanks to xMareXx ) not to manualy choose your language ( you'll lose your location in Clock widget and get some more force-close issues this way ) but go thru Setup process again setting your language there. The keyboard itself isn't required and you may continue using default HTC or any other keyboard. Serbian keyboard from Gingerbread is Cirilic only so I'm using HTC's wich have very well supported Serbian latin characters. I didn't try this in other roms, but I'm sure it will work on Desire Z based roms too. If somebody try on Desire or Evo rom, please tell me the result.
i am using projections desire based NAND ROM.
sorry, i can't give any feedback for multilingual improvements that result due to installing the gingerbread keyboard as you have suggested. this is mainly because i am not a multilingual user so i don't know what to look for, neither will i understand any language i switch to for testing
but i just wanted to say thanks for the information about an EASY way to install a keyboard! sometimes, i don't think about the simpler ways! the installation experience this time was magnitudes better and easier than the last time i changed a keyboard (added droid x keyboard to phiremod's skinny evo some months ago).

Hi guys,
i (and many others as far as i have read) encounter the follwing problems on the swypes integrated in the ROMS.
1. On Swype Version 3.9xxxx, like the one used in Miri's Rom 6.5x V10 for example, holding a key doesnt give you the optional symbol/number but results in a weird movement. And rarley it does work, but then you have to hold it for almost 2 seconds to react. I dont know if this i only related to the keyboards when changed to a language other than english but its a common bug reported here and on other platforms.
2. Using Swype (unknown version) from NRG Engery Rom (April 23th, 23xx) for example, skinned with the htc keyboard, every holdingkey function works flawlessly and response is pretty fast. But, you can only choose between english and spanish. I also tried a workaround with the other language databases, renaming and stuff but it doesnt work.
So, does anyone know a solution to get Swype to work flawlessly like in NRG's but with more languages like in Miris?
I'm fairly new to the android circle so please forgive me if I'm missing something obvious.
My phone did not come with the Japanese locale and i want to install it. I have seen many language packs on the market but nothing for Japanese. Not even sure if it's the same thing. I am quite sure a Japanese Locale is available as it is in the 2.1 SDK. How would i go about getting it on my phone?
Thanks
What you need exactly? If you need the keyboard input, search for OpenWnn plus, it provides you the ability to input Japanese text. If you need the locale language, I think it is the ROM providing that (I also not very sure).
need japanese ui?
so, please install morelocale2 on the market

I recommand you Simeji if you need a Japanese imput software, it's quite easy to use, and provides different keyboad layers...
if you need japanese UI, i can't help you but i'm pretty sure you can find some japanese rom on the web.
For the ui I would recommend MoreLocale2 from the market like zafy said. My parents use it for Chinese and it's great. I have also taken the time to look through the Japanese locale just to make sure it's all good as some users on the market are saying that theres some English bits left over. I can confirm that it works great on Official Froyo HTC Sense ROM 1.0c. The sense ui is also translated.
Hope that helps
Guys I'd like to ask if there any Arabic support for the Desire Z ?
And could I use the Arabizer for Desire (Without Z) to the Desire Z ?
And is that mandatory to root the Froyo 2.2 to Arabize it ? and if yes how can I do it ? I'm sooo new to Android and I really need help
NB: I'm looking for the Arabic support only not to Arabize the menu and the programs names... thank you guys
I once read that it's possible to download any locale from Marketplace, but I don't know any more details.

Hello guys,
I have the desire z with arabic fonts but everything in arabic shows wrong (disconnected letters) very annoing and hard to read. I found some soft keyboards on market but nothing mentioning arabic fix for reading. Anyone know how to fix this for froyo? Great phone but need to fix this arabic reading issue.
Any help will be appreciated.
I tried anysoftkeyboard i think it's called, but all it does is give you the option of an onscreen keyboard with the built in font. It doesn't connect the letters, i don't want to type arabic, i just want to be able to read it properly on my phone without having to root or alter the OS. the phone is great very fast, apart from this issue i love it.
Will this be fix in the next android version? do you guys think we'll be getting the update as well from HTC?
I am patientely waiting for Android's software Engineeres to connect the Arabic letters...
Other than that I love my Desire Z over my SGS.
Cheers
for sms -only- download Mirsal from market
yep, Mirsal does the trick for sms.
problem persists for emails and browsing etc.
there are no arabisers like in winmo.
I tested the new Desire HD being sold in the middle east and it comes preloaded with full arabic support froyo 2.2! Same with the Galaxy Tab. The interface can be english with full support of arabic text in sms, email and browser.
Now my questions, am i stuck with no official arabic support as my unit came from EU? is there a way to flash an arabic rom when available without losing the ability to receive official updates in the future?
Basically, i just want to be able to read proper arabic test on my phone.
I have all sorts installed but still my contacts (i.e. when people ring) are displayed in broken text... oh well. there is an arabic ROM package but it costs £3.60!
You can use persian browser to read arabic connected letters

Hi all
Sorry for the english i'm a french ( newbie )
Is it possible to have the HTC SENSE keyboard on the HyperDroid ROM ( Last version 12/04/11 ) ?
Thank you in advance
I have tried all kind of keyboards, but maybe you didn't know this. SlideIt from the Market, you don't type you just slide along the letter which make typing obsolete. It's like Swype if you ever heard of it. Anyone that use SlideIt or Swype never gone back to any regular keyboard. It's a paid app, but 100% worth it.
I have tried Swype..... and I hate this kind of Keyboard !!
Sorry Capt.PP, thank you anyway for your answer
Should be found XDA developer who has found a way to put the Android HTC Sense keyboard on a no sense ROM ... =D
Fingers crossed!
Hello guys and girls !!! :cyclops:
I have try to use Swiftkey 3, Jellybean keyboard & SlideIT in "JellyBean - JELLYTIME for DHD/Inspire4g"
My Phone are HTC Desire HD and when i try this apps in release7.1 they will not work at all... the program stop working immediately and the same problem are in r7.2 BUT if you go to settings - languages and input and choose the keyboard you want from that way instead from the place you have all your apps then i get it to work. I have try all 3 of them and i get them all work without any problem at all...
I now have even installed the Swedish language and download a new look to SlideIT and it work as it should...
Sorry for my bad english but i hope you understand me...
Here i took 3 screenshot for you to see...
