How to translate ROM's?

Im trying to know if is possible to "edit" roms and change some "strings" to the language that i want.If is possible to do that please indicate me a tutorial or manual to study and i will try to translate a WM6 rom from English to Portuguese based on old roms...
Sorry my bad english

Look for *.0409.mui in Windows directory, those are language files for corresponding dll/exe

I am trying to do the same
Is it possible to have 2 languages? For instance can I have .408.mui ?
Thanks!

As far as i understand it, you can not have two set-up, but i may be wrong.

I am 99.99% sure you can have multiple languages on one device, it is selected in the Registry.
Just search for 0409 and see where it pops up, DefaultLCID I think is the one.
Remember to choose the correct language code:
Portuguese (Brazil) 0416
Portuguese (Portugal) 0816

You need to translate all mui-Files, the html-Files and don't forget software- and hardware-keyboard.

is there any specific software that enables the editing or just a simple unicode text editor will do?

To edit a dll i guess we need a tool like VS2005 or something.But here we can find the source to compile dll??Or maybe we could use a simple editor...
Anyone with experience in this area?
Thnx in advance

you could have searched before creating a new post.... actually it's even on the first page..

That link its almost written in german and only give a superficial idea how to do that...
Still looking for answers.

no, it's almost english and it' s the only called "guide for translating rom"!

HELP Update to WM6 and Change to English

Hi everyone! This is my first time using a Treo. But it is in spanish and I need to change it to WM6 (or newer) in English.
Can anyone please tell me how to do it (step by step)?
THANKS!

i think there is lot of others topics, where you can find help...example: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Cheetah_Upgrade

Yeah, thanks! The thing is none of them have what I need to know. What I need is to upgrade to 6.1 and at the same time change from spanish to english, so I don´t know if just flashing the ROM is all I need. Thanks!

you are welcome

So you're saying that non of the roms has a sort of language pack, the language you can choose from.
It's not like start>settings>system>regional settings where you can choose from.
I've looked around in this forum and saw a rom cooker, it's just a thought but, is it posible to open a rom and change the language and recook it????
Cause i've exedently downloaded an "all languagepack" cause i was interested in the dutch languagepack (0413), but don't know how to install it (without cooking).
Thought you could install it like a .cab file, but not....
And me not being a chef with cooking experience....

[Q]Add a new translation to a custom rom

Hi all,
I am very interested in rom translation for my HTC Hero (G2).
This rom especially is pretty fine to me, but only available in english. I'd really lov to help my french friends to have it in french.
I noticed this post on free your android on how to translate a rom. It is very interesting but will totally translate the rom.
My idea is to understand how to add a multi-language, i mean to allow the user to choose its language (and keyboard) on install.
I searched a lot but i can't find any tutorial or help on this point,
Thanks in advance for your help
