Changing language from germans to english

Hallo guys,
I know this is a stupid question..but I am completely new to android....
I am planning to buy a HTC desire for me (after a hard time choosing desire over legend)and htc hero for my younger brother (yup...must be definitely a lot cheaper one)...
I am living in germany and I have no problem using germans but my bro back home doesn't understand a word in germans...
I plan to buy it brand new and without any form of branding from any operator...
Can I change the hero from germans to english completely? All...HTC sense, standard installed apps which come with the handset...
Yes you can... I bought my little Hero from eXpansys last year and it come with English, French, Deutsch and Italiano as default.
Menu > Settings > Language & Text > Here I am unsure what it is in English since I use Swedish (More Locale 2 @ Market rocks) but it's at the top and then you can change it to whatever you like...
HTC actually include more language files into the Hero than is normaly available to the different regions and to get to those you have to download More Locale 2 from the market.
Thank you very much for your answer.
Have a nice day.

A good multilingual dictionary (better with Russian to something)

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a good German-English English-German dictionary app. Any ideas? If possible I'd like an offline dictionary. I've donwloaded Leo,but it uses internet connectivity,and while its very good,I'm looking for a dictionary that can function when I don't have the luxury of a data connection or when I'm near my data limit.
Any ideas guys? Thanks for ur help
Re: German Dictionary
Try QuickDic from market. It's free and offline. I like it a lot...
+1 for QuickDic. A very good app!
Re: German Dictionary
I've tried that. Don't quite understand how it works though?
Re: German Dictionary
I think colordict is free too just Download the german dict addon from the market

Start the app. In the 'Search Text' box (top left) type the word that you want translated.
2 boxes to the right is a switch for EN or DE. This shoud be set to EN if you want to type in English (for a German translation) or DE if you want to type in Deutsch (for an English translation).
Simples ...
I've found that there are almost no dictionaries with not only multilingual support, but even with no multi-dictionary support! SlovoEd from Paragon Software has tens of independent apps for any dictionary/language - that's very inconvenient to use. The same goest about Mobile Systems dictionaries. The best that they could do is Concise Oxford English Dictionary and Thesaurus - a miracle: two dictionaries in one!
In fact, what I need is Russian/English, Russian/German and English dictionaries, but I don't want to have 3 apps for that!
Why is there no ABBYY Lingvo... Or a dict that would accept .lsd files. ColorDict don't have any more Russian dics than English-Russian.
Do you know of any solutions to that?

Japan Locale available?

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

Special characters in stock ROM keyboard

Hi, so I took the plunge and ordered a unlocked Streak from UK today. And I was wondering if the stock keyboard has the special characters native to my language. It's not a big issue if it does not, but I am hoping they are there. I live in Norway and use " æ ø å " characters often. It's not a problem that the OS itself is in English, but I would love to have the possibility to write in my native language on it
Please give me a heads up if you know, and also a picture / description on how to find these characters if you can

I checked my streak, unfortunately there are no special characters that you needed.
However, surely you can download/search for an alternative keyboard which may contain the extra characters you need.
Ok, I was considering SlideIt anyway, since its the only keyboard with custom national skins, and I like the slide feature. To bad swype does not have Norwegian layout:-s

You can download language packs for SLIDEIT and they do do Norwegian and to be honest slideit is a lot better than swype
I use Scandinavian keyboard for writing Danish (supports danish, norweigian, swedish etc), requires additional dictionary in the case of danish but works really well.
layout is nice enough, has the special characters, and with the dictionary does predictive text and autocorrect etc
Cheers
ps no link due to post count, but search the market for 'scandinavian keyboard'

[Q] English (United Kingdom) locale

Anyone know how to add a UK English locale?

Download "MoreLocale 2" from the market then set to uk english, you may also want to download and use a better soft keyboard that also supports uk english.
Tried MorelLocale 2...
Thanks for the advice. I tried MoreLocale 2 and it partially worked. The calendar still defaulted to Sunday as the first day of the week. Managed to change that. The only remaining annoyance is that the date in the system tray (sorry for the Windows speak!) remains in mm/dd/yyyy format although i have set the date format to dd/mm/yyyy. My Beautiful Widgets home weather also shows mm/dd/yyyy, so I guess I'll have to see if any future update 'really' adds UK English as a locale.
Under settings Date and time you can set format of date for system to DD/mm/yyyy
