Hey guys.
I got a kitchen and dump all the files from my 80040000-OS.nb.
And now i want to translate the hole rom to sample-chinese, how can i do that?
I saw an article from here, it said i can download the emulator file from microsoft, and change all the language file name to 0409, then copy them to my dump folder.
But i didn't want to do that, i want to still keep the language file name like 0804. What will i do? Modify the default.hv and user.hv? Or some other way i can do?
I just want to translate my rom to sample-chinese use 0804 file not 0409 file, can somebody help me?
anybody can answer my question ?
Get all the mui files for your language (may be from emulator but be sure to have right build). hv files will have the language settings. Convert the hv files to rgu and search them through for language settings. You may need to search through each line in the rgu. Then convert the rgu back to hv and use them along with the mui files (can delete the ENU mui files).
This is not impossible but will need lot of patience and testing time. Good Luck
only edit .hv files and replace the mui files is ok ?
need other thins to do ?
Or somebody can give me anohter way to translate my rom ?

I have extract language 0804 from China Mobile ROM and sort it into OEM and SYS, however, there is no "Language_Simplified Chinese" folder under OEM, hence, when I try to cook my own ROM, I can't find Chinese options.
Can any one let me know how to build the the folder "Language_Simplified Chinese" and make the options visible?
Thanks in advance!
There is no such folder in the original ROMs, you have to create one. Look at the other language packs (are you using the language kitchen for new guava or the vox kitchen 0.3??). There you should find a .dsm and a .rgu (rgu s are hidden) and a option.xml. Just copy them to your "Language_Simplified Chinese" folder and then rename the dsm and rgu to ce2bca2e-da07-4123-9e20-87dc3dcf032c.dsm and ce2bca2e-da07-4123-9e20-87dc3dcf032c.rgu Then go into the option xml, there you will find a line with the former name of the rgu change it to ce2bca2e-da07-4123-9e20-87dc3dcf032c . Also change the line for the name to Chinese.. Then you have to go into the rgu (with editor) there you have to change all the language codes to the code for Chinese, but only change the codes for the former language, because English has to stay in, English is either 0409 or 0809!
Many thanks.
Yes, I am using kitchen to cook the rom. However, when I try to build the rom, it reports an error that "temp\dump\mixpcold_smartphon_1.provxml" already exist.
Then what can I do?
Search for the file, it should be in the ROM twice somewhere in the sys or oem folder, delete one, if it is in an oem package delete that not the one in sys.
Thanks again.
I have successfully build the rom and flash to the Vox, but the display just squares, neither Chinese nor English.
Can you please tell?
Hm, can you upload all your language files, just zip and attach them, I'll see what I can do!
Great appreciate your help.
I've uploaded file in /Smartphone/Vox/Vox Kitchen 0.3/languages/
Please check it.
Do you have a Chinese keyboard layout or is it a normal English qwerty? Maybe I have found your mistake! I'll upload once you have told me about the keyboard!
It is normal English Keyboard.
OK I am uploading, wait 5 minutes and it's done! Again I don't know if it'll work at all, because it is not from the same ROM version!
It's done!

Any way, more than thanks.
One more question.
I have dumped the original rom into three raw files. Can I flash this files back? If so, How?
I am sorry I don't know. Nobody here has tried it and reported back, but people keep asking it. It should (!) work when you just extract it to OEM and SYS folder, place that in the kitchen and run it, but as I said I don't know if it works!
I think a raw file (or was it a bin ?) can also be directly flashed with pdocwrite.exe but I have never tried that. Search for it on the forum or with google and be cautious with it.
Please report here if you are succesfull
Yeah, because if it works we could write a Wiki article. Did the new language pack work?
Unfortunately, it is not work.
Any more ways to help me out?
What I guess it because of wince.nls file. It it Chinese support file. I can find it after flash, but I can't find in folders before I cook them. Do you have any idea?
Hi all,
I would like to translate all the Operative System (Windows Mobile 5 or 6) to another language than the one that I have. for instance from English to Swedish.
I have been reading in this site loads of comments related to this subject and I thought I was gonna be able to do it, but at the end by now I have a defeat
The idea is NOT creating a new ROM, just a cab file which would be able to change the language.
things I have tried and I think are neccesary to do:
1) Change in the registry the values related to the language, for instace
2) Edit the .mui files. HERE I HAVE PROBLEMS as i am able to edit them (with Reshacker for instace), modify them, save them.
-> They are ignored by the OS
after that I thought I had to sin them so i did ot with signtool an the certificates that you have with VisualStudio...however they are ignores as well
---> ¿whish is the exact process I have to do with the mui files??
3) i think if I were able to create the proper muis, I would be able to "overwrite" the ROM with the command FORCEDELETE inside of the xml/cab
thank you very much in advance

As read a lot of ROM cooking threads here, I can't find some details on how to cook a ROM to different language.
I tried to replace all the .0409.MUI folders/files with different language packs such as .0804.MUI, replace wince.nls, re-build default.hv and user.hv, modified initflashfiles.dat, then cooked.
but never lucky, it always stopped on the first boot screen after flahshed.
Could somebody give me some suggestions or is there a tutorial on it?
Thank you in advance!
you should modify boot.hv and boot.rgu in ROM\XIP folder. it may be help also, check .rgu files in MUI folders. Good cooking!!!

The best and also the easiest way is to download the original Chinish and dump it... then use all the Land folder from the sys folder and replace them in the cooked rom you like to change. you will also need the OEM_Lang from chinish version. the wince.nls is also needed from the Chinish version or it wan't display any chinish letters.
It's quite easy if the rom you wan't to change language of is fully dumpable ( not removed the rgu and made the dsm as one file)
this method should work for any language

Thanks for your remind.
but unfortunately HTC never released China simplified language version for Kaiser but traditional chinese, this is why I wanna customized my own language ROM version by replace some MUI files.
There are quite a few chinese kaiser kitchens around at those chinese sites.
I just converted the newest HTC-lite rom to a working CHS kitchen last night. Just be patient, check all the necessary rgu files, devote some time. Try and error.
Hi all
I am not a manila guru.. and this is my first dive in to the manila naming ocean...
I started this thread when some person that i asked for the filenames to have Greek language
in the documents tab he refuse to tell me EVEN the filenames.
So when i figure out how it works i deside to put together this Howto for other people.
This is a tutorial, a howto find the manila file names for the varius language,apps and tabs.
You will need
a) ManilaHASH.exe
b) Manilafiles.txt
Files are provided in the end of this post.
In his tutorial we will try to find the manila files and filenames to have the document tab in
Greek Language.
The same way works for any tab and any language...
So lets start.
The manila files that holds all the strings are the xml ones...
1. Open the manilafiles.txt in a text editor you will see lines like this one
5bb3a45f_manila \windows\htc\album\assets\images\btn_camera_press.qtc
The first part its the actual filename.(You will find that file in the windows folder)
The second one its a virtual path that refers to that filename.
(I dont know how and why they just are linked and the manilahash app use this to produce the
actual filenames.)
Lets find now the filenames for the document tab.
2. Search the Manilafiles.txt file for the string 'document' and when you find the first instance
scrool down to find the lines with the xml files
in our case the lines are :
35bfc9f0_manila \windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\docicons.en-us.xml
4e4ebb4e_manila \windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\documentexplorer.en-us.xml
43326f20_manila \windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\documentexplorerbrowse.en-us.xml
4db93f9f_manila \windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\documentexplorersettings.en-us.xml
1a93e5c6_manila \windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\expandeddocument.en-us.xml
The first part of those lines is the actual filename.
Those are the files that we need to find them in the \windows folder of the device and copy
them for editing. So find them and copy them from the device to your pc.
Before go to the next step, lest do a test now just to see how the manilahash.exe and the manila
naming works.
3. Open the manilahash.exe and copy and paste the "\windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\docicons.en-us.xml"
to the manila file path textbox.
Then press the "get manila" button ... you will get the 35bfc9f0_manila witch is refered in our text file.
The same goes for the others files... just check them.
4. Now lets go for the other language - the greek
In the filepath for the first file "\windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\en-us\docicons.en-us.xml" change
the language code from en-us to el-gr the greek language code, and now the path string its like this :
"\windows\htc\docexplorer\locales\el-gr\docicons.el-gr.xml".
(Here you can find all the language codes to letters for each of the 2 parts, the Primary language and Sublanguage)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms776294.aspx
5. Copy this to the manila file path textbox of manilahash.exe app and press getmanila to get the name
of the file for the greek language witch is this: 7139AFEE_manila.
So now copy the file 35bfc9f0_manila and rename it to 7139AFEE_manila.
Follow the same procedure for all the files.
The open the all files with a text editor and change the first line the string en-us to el-gr and save.
Transfer all the files to \windows folder of your device and after a softreset you will have greek (or any other lang
in the document tab.
The procedure is generaly the same for any other set of files or tabs... and for any language...
I dont now if the text file with the names covers all the manila files... i did some try and find attemps
and all the files where there.
If i can help you with your search just post the question here.
Thanks to metlwater, he was the first that answer my question about manila file names in the facebook tab
greek translation.

LOL Thanks alot (Ευχαριστώ)
I just read this today, very useful! Any idea how this works for custom tabs?
Cheers for any pointers.
Hola Colossus ;-)
I know this thread isn´t "warm" anymore, but doing some research for "FullThemSwitch" witch CHTS (or manually ) I stumbled across this one
Guess we both encountered the same "attitude" when asking "certain" people for information , guess not everybody is into sharing knowledge - since information is power At last let me also congratulate you, because you actually "practice what you preach" Love your signature
I'd all but forgotten about this thread and there was no thankyou meter last time I posted. So, your thankyou meter just went up by one.
Without you I wouldn't have been able to find out which manila files to have translated, for those wanting other localisations of my ROM series.
Cheers again!
THX great work (ευχαριστω)

Thanks a lot my friend. May i ask you something - My documents tab <bar> at the top of the screen is empty without writing <Documents> (from the begining). Do you know perhaps how or what file makes it appears again? I have an HD2 with the latest Greek Rom.
Interesting informations, I think you are a manila guru!!
