[Q] Russian Menu Problem - Nook Touch General

Hello there,
I've just bough Nook Simple Touch for my friend. But when I opened it I've seen that its language is Russian. I've searched Google and looked every part of its settings and I couldn't find language settings. How can I change its language to English?

Sounds like it's been "russified" in a past life (is it used?). The NST is quite popular in Russia and a lot of work has been devoted to customizing it there. Seems to me that a factory reset is in order.

You can also try this if you can connect with ADB:
Code:
am start -n com.android.settings/.LocalePicker

I think it is used. I tried reset. But the result is same. Russian again.

OK, so pretend it is "fried" and you need to give it a complete memory transplant. There are a number of ways to restore the factory image. Maybe the easiest is to make up an SD card with NookManager on it. You don't need GApps or anything else and you don't have to root (unless you want to). There is an option in the initial screens of NookManager to restore the factory image. Try that.

The navigation for factory restoring with NookManager is [No, continue without wireless > Rescue > Restore factory.zip], in case you were wondering.

US number format, how to change

I'm sure this has been answered several times, but couldn't find anything in the wiki (google search) nor in the forum. Most likely because I'm using the wrong set of words.
Latest ROM upgrade has introduced the american style number (212) 456-453 etc. How do I get rid of this? Tried to change regional settings but no luck.
Any help appreciated.

It seems to default to that format but when I enter non North American
format numbers they do show up correctly when using the " - " as the
space between routing, prefix and area. Then again my X01HT is having
other issues which everyone can fix and I had working up until I hard reset
the bloody thing.
Set your regional options in Settings -> System -> Regional Settings, and choose the right country. That will solve the issue - certainly did for me!
Edit: Just read that you tried that, and it didn't work. Ah. Erm, could be an issue with the ROM? Sorry I've got nothing more helpful :-/
after couple of resets and a power on/off it worked. Thanks N2A.

How to do I return my device to normal?

I tried installing one theme (transferred files to /windows) and didn't like it then I couldn't get back to my original sprint theme and so I installed another one (cab).
How can I clear all this crap out and just go back to my original factory theme? I shouldn't have messed with this stuff in the first place!
Help would be greatly appreciated!!
hard reset will bring youre phone back to original manilla.
but you will also loose al youre contacts and other apps and tweaks.
That's fine as long as I can get outta this mess!
It won't make me reprogram my phone will it? (i mean program my phone number esn crap?)
how do i do this hard reset?
for Angelko2k8
Look at this link
1) you may tray with tf3d config, there is an item "restore theme" which worked for me. remember to disable tf3d from today first or
2) you may download original black theme and install it. remember to disable tf3d from todat first
hope this help
Reflash in original HTC firm at:
http://www.htc.com/it/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=133&cat=all
You can use TF3D config or hard reset.
hard reset: Start > Settings > System > clear storage, enter 1234 and it will hard reset your system.
Thanks, I managed to the hard reset via settings control panel.
Someone who is knowledgeable in adding themes and changing TF3D skins should really make a tutorial and have it stickied. It takes way too much time to read and then downloading countless programs that you come to find out you don't even need. It's really a mess. I'm surprised this forum doesn't already have a sticky for that, we have everything else you could ask for.

Its not that hard dude.
All members in the forum went through the testing and failure method.
I myself reseted my device at least 20 times, in the quest for the perfect jewel.
Im guessing you havent flashed ROMS??
Well if you start flashing start getting used to reseting the device very often.
Greetings.

Nah man, haven't flashed my rom yet...I don't even know how to see what rom I have. The funny thing is that I'm not some noob who doesn't know how to do stuff like this, usually I catch onto this stuff easily but with so much info and downloads on this forum it's easy to get confused.
Once I figure out everything hopefully I'll be able to make a thread for others!

It won't go back even after removing it via Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs?
If that doesn't do it, you're going to have to do a hard reset (complete wipe of the phone). Backup everything on your phone! The only things that won't get erased are the things in the SD card.
To do the hard reset: turn off the phone, then press/hold Talk/Send, End, and Power button at the same time until a prompt comes up warning you about a factory reset. Follow the prompt to completely wipe your phone memory.
That will restore everything the way it was when it came from the factory.

I realize that an instance may occur where using the three-button hard-reset is the only option (device won't boot or blank screen), but I wonder if running 'Clear Storage' wouldn't serve the same purpose? Are there any differences in the desired results or are the two methods of resetting a Rhodium identical in this regard?
surely a hard reset is a bit harsh, can't you just install a different tab slider, there must be a stock 2.1 slider floating around somewhere, i'll see if i have one on my Harddrive, you are using stock 2.1 yeh?
One of these two should work for you try each of them as i don't know what build your phones on
To install Go into settings>today-Settings>untick Sense, then install after install retick sense and you should be back on..hope it works for you dude
Thanks very much it has worked after installing the cabs u gave me. Cheerse much appreciated

Thats great news! no need for a HR, glad i could help
I reckon the best paid app i ever got has to be SPB back-up i think its about £20 but well worth it, it doesn't just back-up your PIM(txts, numbers,etc) it backs up everything, i can completely wipe my device and reinstall everything just as it was using this, ive tried there other products but not been that impressed but this i cant live without. Then you can try stuff out without fear of not being able to uninstall!!!

Strange looking keyboard (energy rom)

I've recently installed the latest Energy rom on my HD2 but the default keyboard is looking a bit strange, the bottom row of keys seems to have shifted upwards.
Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it?
Also, on the second screenshot, I've noticed that the menus have changed but there is no mention in the changelog on the website. Is this normal or have I changed a setting somewhere?
Thanks
hhmm did you hard reset after flashing?? and the menu can be changed in hd2 tweak maybe bsb tweaks also im not sure. its something about using windows menu's i think its system menus in bsb tweaks mate, that should change it

No, I just flashed it and reintroduced my propgrams/backups.
Will it be worth trying again and hard resetting it?
you should hard reset after flashing mate,

Oh ok, cool! How does it make a difference? I would have thought that a flash was as good as a hard reset, is it not a format/clean install?
Thanks for your help mate.
well it is kind of, just gives the flash a clean base to start the rom up on, just the way it is lol

I beg to disagree & BTW, that doesn't even make sense! The "flash" that you mentioned is already starting off of a "clean base". You DONT need to hard reset after a flash. Flashing in itself is like Hard Resetting.
The problem you are facing could be because of one of 2 things
1) Your backup has registry / program files that are replacing newer files from the rom. If you normally make use of automatic restoration by means of SDConfig.txt or XDA_UC, try not using it this time while Hard Resetting and see if the problem persists. The easiest way to do that is by popping your card out.
2) Occasionaly something goes wrong when chefs are 'baking' their roms, so to speak and they might end up putting out bad roms with problems. This could be a result of that.
i'm on the same problem after HR and updated settingd from XDA_UC.
before was great so this is probably after update.
After a hard reset, I installed all my cabs indiviually and worked out that it was the cab that add extra currency symbols to the main keyboard that was causing this. I'd found it from the Leo Hints & Tips thread. I uninstalled it and is reverted back to normal.
50. Enable All Currency Symbols from Main Keyboard
If you want to input the Euro, Yen or Pound symbol, you have to tap on the '12#' key and then go to page 2. A bit cumbersome. Now you can have access to all of the currency symbols just by pressing and holding the 'f' key and then drag to choose the symbol you want. Install cab below to device main memory only.

no, it erase your Isolate Storage with all your personal settings and erase all installed apps. after reebot you still on your last build, like 8107.

Really? Because it asks me to format.. So format seems a bit more than just erasing personal info.
I always though hard reset would bring the device back to original state (incl build)
So there's no way to go back before mango, besides flashing?

Had nokia drive xap on it, by using Samsung tools it messed up the whole thing and i had again maximum unsigned apps on it so it wouldn't start anymore (incl samsung tools, advanced config, registry editor etc..)
I want to be able to have all of that back, but at the moment that's not possible with current setup.

Thank you. I have flashed it with tango V3, works great and love the full unlocked features like "download from IE", change search key to open another app etc.
And now all of my interop apps, nokia drive 2.0 especially, are working again
