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).
Hello everyone. Here's a problem I have with my wing: when I send sms using greek keyboards (interkey keyboard and greek keyboard), the receiving party cannot see the greek characters.
I sent an sms to myself and I couldnt see it either!
this is what i sent:
ςερτυθιοπασδφγηξκλζχψωβνμΣΕΡΤΥΘΙΟΠΑΣΔΦΓΗΞΚΛΖΧΨΩΒΝΜ
this is what i received:
?????????????????????????Σ????Θ??Π?ΣΔΦΓ?Ξ?Λ??ΨΩ???
I'm using open touch biggy by ttran v.5
could someone please help me?
Btw, I'm not experiencing this problem when I end emails or write notes, docx etc. just sms.
its possible that the protocol that tmobile uses to send sms cant recognize greek characters. if this is true, you're pretty much SOL until tmo decides to change the system.
I'd stick to phonetic spellings for now
The GSM standard supports only the upper case Greek characters in what is called a 7 bit alphabet. Unicode characters, which is probably what you are sending are not supported by all SMS carrier gateways. I would look for a keyboard mapper that does map your keyboard to the 7 bit alphabet.
Having said that, I am still looking for one...
I have Any Sofy Keyboard Hebrew installed on my Hero, however almost everything connected to contacts, mainly browsing & searching them - is not working. Only the English contacts are searchable.
Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?
Thanks
Gal
hi
first u can sorcut "People" to your phones desktop
the any soft key works fine there if you use the search
second you can download from the market the "aContact" app
and set it as default app for the Phone button.
dont forget to set the T9 lang to hebrew and check the RTL box
good luck
Hi *
is there a way to disable the auto-correction of what you type on the HD2?
I have a WWE device but I need to type Dutch from time to time either in email or SMS and it's doing my head in when it tries to auto correct to English.
Alternativly, is there a way to change the dictionary to a Dutch dictionary for the correction stuff?
Cheers
Yves
Anyone tried sending an SMS with non-Latin characters? I've tried using Russian (Cyrillic), Hebrew, and Chinese characters in my SMS's from T-Mobile to folks on AT&T & Verizon and they look like a sequence of * characters. For example, "привет, как дела?" turns into "******, *** ****?" Same for Hebrew and Chinese. I can *receive* non-Latin unicode SMS's and MMS's and all the characters appear correctly, though. What's causing this and how do I correct it -- highly annoying, especially since my 4-yr Nokia N95 handled these absolutely fine...
