Change browser locale - HTC Tornado

I'm running Nitro's rom (excellent btw). For some reason the IE browser has decided that I should get all application strings in French. My locale is set to Belgian (Dutch)! Phone GUI language is kept on EN-US, so why on earth does this silly program decide that I should get a French interface? Worst of all: I can't find any way to change this. Any help appreciated

Touch Pro 2: SIP Question - Installed Sogou Pinyin

Hi there,
First thread here for me. I've recently purchased a Touch Pro 2 ( Rhodium T7373 ) model number RHO100. It's a UK branded (i'm from the UK) one from vodafone but unlocked and flashed with the recent winM 6.5 ROM from HTC.
So I'm living in Australia, but I regularly converse with people from China ( friends and business ) and I use the sogou pinyin input system on all my computers. I found out they provide an IME for Windows Mobile at shouji.sogou.com.
So I downloaded it and installed on my TP2. It works wonderfully, much better than that piece of trash CE-Star. So far so good....
Anyway, here's the rub:
It's a tiny tiny issue but seeing as I'm British and living in Australia, my communications through mobile are predominantly in English. Ever since I installed the sogou pinyin IME every time I soft reset the phone, the Sogou input system is activated by default. If I change it back to the english it will stay that way until another soft reset, and baboom, there is sogou.
Whilst I love the input system, I'm such an anal retentive when it comes to little details like this, I'd rather not have the input system and have my english default than have to change every time after a soft reset I want to input english.
Is there a quick decisive way to restore the "Full QWERTY" option as the default when I turn the phone on. I'm not scared of editing the registry directly. I just need pointing in the right direction, be it to software or a registry.
I've already done my own research and I got as far as finding the "default SIP" registry key, but unfortunately for me it it seems like it's an encoded value, i.e. a non human readable value and I have no reference values for the HTC default or any other.
Care to indulge me with a quick hit of registry magic? I've tried SIPChange and I don't like it, seems to error out on boot for my TP2. Thanks.

No dice people?
I feel your pain, pal. I know exactly what you're describing since I'm a bit anal too. Assuming you read Chinese, the following post may enlighten you a bit:
http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=129&t=944511
The post suggested editing the following registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\
Default=e0010404 -> Traditional Chinese
Default=e0010409 -> English
I am no master in registry editing, but from what I read, it appears that there are different Keyboard Layouts. Your TP2's default layout is e0010409 English. After you install Chinese IME, it changes to e0010404 Traditional Chinese, which is why your Sogou input system is activated after a soft reset. Now if you change that registry back e0010409, it will now default back to English AND DISABLING CHINESE INPUT in the process. With that said, since this registry can be changed on the fly, I assume you can write a MortScript to change swap them whenever you need to input Chinese.
Hope this helps and let me know if you ever come across a better solution.
I would also appreciate if someone here can better explain how these keyboard related registries work. I can read manuals, just need some good pointers, thanks!
Just found a better solution. Apparently PlumSIP http://www.dayhand.com/ is a Chinese input system that is registered as an English (e0010409) keyboard layout. That is, it can switch between Chinese and English input without touching the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\Default registry.
With this setup, you will have English as default input method, and can switch to Chinese when you need to.
Found an even better solution. Sogou just puts a shortcut to it's own process in your \windows\startup\ directory. If you delete that, Sogou isn't the default SIP anymore. YES!
Used this solution for HTC HD Mini, and now am satisfied with the result after deleting from the Sogou shortcut from directory. Nice help here, thanks...

[Q] Locale fallback other than english

Hi,
I've been searching for a way to change the fallback locale in Android, and found nothing at all so far.
So, The phone is set to a particular locale, say Catalan. Now, whenever an application is launched that isn't translated to said language, the phone will fall back to english, and display everything in either catalan or english.
The question is... is it possible to specify a different locale for fallback? say... German? So the phone would try to display the application in another language before falling back to english.
I'd love that as well.
However, I'm afraid that the fallback language is an app decision.
If your locale is not supported, then the app chooses for you.

[Q] So how do you change locale anyway?

I have a Viewsonic GTab running Flashback 10.0. I believe it is Android 3.1.
I travel a lot and find that lots of apps use the language of the country I am in as the language displayed. I assume it thinks because my IP address is in China or Thailand I want to see the local lingo when I really want to see English. I have adjusted the settings so my preferred language is English.
How can I set locale so the IP address is ignored and my desired language is shown?
I have looked extensively and found nothing that helps.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Language Issue

Hi. Last year my mother bought for herself a Vodafone smart 3. She's happy with it, but the issue that she has with the phone is that she can't change the language of the phone to Ukrainian (She's Ukrainian) because the phone only has English and Spanish. I have tried apps like locale changer and even an app that allows you to change the language of a specific app. All of them were useless, because they changed the language of the apps to Ukrainian, but, the system UI changed to english. Maybe someone knows an answer to solve this issue, thanks for reading my issue.
