Can I use this to write chinese in text messaging and send chinese text?
or would you know any software where I can actually write chinese in the text message.
Yes you could, with Maction Chinese
It can also display Chinese character in Today plugin, etc etc.. Only thing is, don't have too many false hope on these thing. Like me, I was hoping that it could sync my Contact that's in Chinese character with my Outlook that's in English. All those will becomes "??" mark, damn!!

ActiveSync does not seem to use Unicode as its means of communication. Instead, it uses the default encoding as per Windows' setting. If you have your setting set to English (United States), but have Chinese on your PPC, then it's not going to work.
It is possible to change this setting, but be aware of the consequences before doing so...
1) Open the "Regional & Language Options" dialog: Start->Settings->Control Panel->Regional and Language Options
2) Select the Advanced Tab. Read the details on the screen. Note: Changing this setting can have seriours consequences, as the default encoding of characters is changed. This means that characters other than the first 128 ASCII characters may appear differently in files after this setting is changed. Use with caution Change the setting to the language that you have installed on your Pocket PC. For example, I have "Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R.). Click OK.
3) Reboot
4) Resync with ActiveSync.
>>> Update Note: The prior post was made with regard to ActiveSync 4.2, and with a WM2003SE ROM. These details may not be correct with regard to WM5 and the latest version of ActiveSync. It seems Windows Mobile 5 has better support for Unicode synchronisation.
I remember hearing about a chinese software called CE Star. Google for it..
There are two main issues here:
1) A Chinese language system that allows display of text in Chinese, along with Chinese input (for which PenPower/CE Star and Monster Chinese are solutions), and
2) The ability to synchronise data between Outlook and the PPC without losing the characters during synchronisation (eg. when inputting "龘龗蘇" as a name on the PC, avoiding it appearing on the PPC as "???").
To solve problem (1), look at PenPower or Monster Chinese. These products install a Chinese font on your system allowing display of Chinese characters, along with one or more SIP (soft input panel) items to allow input of text.
To solve problem (2), refer to my previous post in this thread (up two posts).
Hi all,
My XDA Mini S G4 is now running the most up to date WM5 ROM from O2's web site.
I want to be able to read sms messages in hebrew so I installed Ectaco's hebrew language support in trial mode (allows you to read but not to write, which is just what I need). the thing is messages are displayed left-to-right whereas Hebrew is read right-to-left ( i.e. the message shows "csid" instead of "disc", only in hebrew).
is there a way to fix it?
sorry for the late response. I think you'll have to purchase either Eyeron or PDAC hebrew support. Both are Israeli companies and offer full support.
Problem By Persian Or arabic to sms manila 2.5
my problem
what is the problem, send me pm in Persian language, I will help you, by the way its wrong section to open this kind of thread, it will be closed or moved soon
the problem
the problem is that when you open an sms, letters appear ordered from left to right, while in Arabic and Persian they write from right to left, this happens even when you tick the "use unicode..."
BTW, this problem was not there for the first few releases of HTC messenging app.
Regards
also i add to this that letters in one word should be connected together for example
شجرة appears as ة رج ش
