WM6 and Maction Monster Chinese for Wizard

I have used Monster Chinese (Version 5 for WM5) for my Wizard (8125, G3) since I purchased teh device a little more than a year ago and have had much problem. The only difficulty I got was the Monster SIP keyboard won't pop up so sometimes it required a soft reset. Now I loaded several different WM6 ROMs I found here but always have problem - the system is slowing down, sometimes it get frozen/won't weakup...
I am not sure if this problem is caused by Monster Chinese. However since a lot of people here reported very stable/smooth experience with the same ROMs on the same type of devices, I can only question the apps I added by myself if I get the problem other peole won't. I wonder if there is anyone who is also using this Chinese software on a WM6 mochine (especially Wizard), and if yes can you kindly share some of your experience about it?
I know someone talked about CE-Star but for some reason I felt Monster Chinese is a better choice. Now I might reconsider it if CE-Star creates less trouble.
I've been always using one of the WWE kitchens here, replace with chinese wince.nls, add chinese fonts, add necessary registry modifications. And I'll get a stable WM6 ROM with English interface, but fully supports chinese.

Sounds very promissing. Could you provide some details about how you can do this - necessary files, hacks...
Btw, is there any Chinese input method included?
XDA WM6 with Monster CHinese and SIP
I tried using CE-Star Suite 2.8 Version R2a freezes all the time, and cannot connect to msn messenger live.
Monster Chinese and it's SIP works better, less freezes and msn can connect but still freezes with wm6, but I found XDA WM6 version best for Monster Chinese ....less freeze and the SIP keyboard popups faster and doesn't feezes as much, also I overclock too. But XDA WM6 does make a different when installing Monster Chinese.
This is the only way I got chinese working well, but it does affect the OS sometimes. Oh also install monster chinese as your last program is best cause I notice sometimes it conflicts with other programs, but if you install it last it runs better.

Thanks for sharing your experience. So it is confirmed that Monster Chinese will affect WM6 performance. Good to know you feel XDA WM6 performs better. I installed this one but moved to NBD7.3 for HTC Touch Today plugin. I probably will move back when a new XDA version is released.
I hope Maction can release a upgrade for WM6 soon (but I doubt). I like the hand-writing input for both simplified and traditional Chinese it has.
One thing I also want to try once I got some free time - I want to configure the WM6 to support Chinese as lilila posted and install Monster SIP only for Chinese input. Hope this is avoid the conflict Monster Chinese creates. This will be valid if the problem is from Monster Chinese but not Monster SIP.
Oh also install monster chinese as your last program is best cause I notice sometimes it conflicts with other programs, but if you install it last it runs better.

My feeling is the keyboard has more chance to popup if you install the Monster SIP the first. This is the major problem I have had since I moved to WM5. We may need more testing on this. But I will try to load it the last and see if there is any difference.

Oh hey I install it that way too, first I install the IME keyboards first then Monster Chinese, then Monster SIP...works best this way when I install in these steps.

That sounds pretty good, you should install the IME keyboard and MonserSIP.....and it would be perfect.

Would you mind to share where to get IME keyboard for PPC? Do you mean it will just like the one we have with desktop Windows? Thanks.
I am able to get the Block-mode Handwriting function in Chinese WM5 work in WM6 WWE and also Chinese interface without having to cook a ROM. The process is not as easy as installing a cab, but I can share it here if you want.

download Windows Mobile 6 Professional Images (CHT) or Windows Mobile 6 Professional Images (CHS).
Install the Emulators, and extract the wince.nls(CHT or CHS version) files from the windows directory. Also extract the mingliu.ac3 font file for CHT and the mingliu.ac3 for CHS.
Export the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls]
registries form the emulator for CHS and CHT.
Then in the kitchen, \SYS\WinCENLS_WWE directory, replace with the wince.nls you want: for CHT, copy mingliu.ac3 to the SYS\OS\ directory, for CHS, mingliu.ac3.
You can also prepare two OEM packages called nls and FonLink: the registry hacks for CHT and CHS that exported from the emulators. Or you can just import the registry after flashing the rom.
As for input methods, there are quite a few of them, either as OEM packages or in CAB formats.
Solution found.

Thanks for your advice. Taking the Independence Day break, I flashed my phone with NBD7.4 and tried several methods to enable Chinese support on an English ROM. Sorry I didn't follow your instruction since I don't know how to cook ROM and it seems not easy for me to learn . Luckily I found a simple way -
With NBD7.4 flashed into the phone, I simply installed a unicode font pack I found from the Internet, which includes multilingal characters, and restart (soft reset) the Wizard. The Chinese characters will be displaced nicely on screen. No need to reload wince.nls and/or change any registry key.
Later I installed Maction SIP (v5) with several input methods. Everything works fine so far.
This is a big issue to me since it resolved WM6 powered Wizard hangs up from time to time when Monster Chinese is installed. The only negative thing I can see is the font pack takes quite big space so if you need to load a lot of stuff in main memory, you may want to plan ahead.
DFUHMD.cab
Can you supply the link or file for DFUHMD.cab, How is your experience with is it more stable then Monster Chinese on wm6.
Lilila,
Would you be kind enough to share those files and registry changes with us so that we don't have to go thru all that trouble?
Thank you so much!

progress?
i'm really interested in this topic, i'm currently trying to get TomTom 6's chinese hardwriting/transcriber input to work, the pingying/zhuying work fine.
the handwriting/transcriber don't, though it seems to work fine with a chinese rom, so i'm trying to figure out where the problem is. i've tried installing monster chinese and CE-Star. both cause my system to hang...ALOT. so i was hoping this would work.
i'm just curious if anyone knows of the root of the problem, and if any progress have been made
i'm currently trying to make heads and tails of this
thanks

The link for the files:
http://rapidshare.com/files/45830591/CHtCHs.zip.html
I have built cabs for my packs, look at my signature.
The Chinese support pack includes all input method equipped with Traditional Chinese version of WM (Chajei, Phonetic, Writing Pad and Full Screen Writing. Chajei and Phonetic can use hardware keyboard).
The MUI pack localizes most parts of WM6, with shortcut names.
However before use, remember to backup your data, then apply the 2 security cabs, or you will get big trouble (Due to the fact that system DLLs are required to be signed, and it is not possible/feasible to get all DLLs signed with a valid certificate)
hey stark, i tried downloading the disablesecurity.cab from your website, the link doesn't work, says file isn't on server
is anyone else having that problem?
thanksss
Sorry, there is a mistake in the filename (CAB vs cab)
It is fixed now.
Remember to backup your Wizard before installing!

Change browser locale

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

SuperJustKitchen Pruning

SuperJustKitchen is a big beast to keep updated that's why I want to start pruning it. As it stands, I can't upgrade most packages because I can't find the packages in EVERY language. Therefore, I will be pruning out the languages that no one ever uses. This poll will up for the next two weeks. Please votes only ONCE and vote on all the languages which you think we should keep. (The ones you use.)
I'm thinking of forking off each language so I can concentrate on the English part (it's REALLY hard to manage all 13 different languages.)
Is anyone interested in taking over some of the languages? If so, tell me which ones.
I'm planning to expand the English one to all other devices.
( Maybe not the most used language, but I'd be happy if there'd available Hungarian language If that matters i can help translating, but i dont really know how it works.. )

If a hungarian stock ROM was ever made, then it'd be possible, but I don't think they make any hungarian windows mobile translations. Unfortunately, microsoft has only released windows mobile in 20 different languages. Translating it wouldn't be too complicated, but it would take a VERY long time. VERY VERY VERY long time.

My friend has just bought a Diamond 2 with Hungarian WM6.1.. Can that help if i try to rip the rom off from that? If its still so much work than english is good for me..
I can tell you how to do it, but I won't have time for a full language convertion for a while. But if you can at least dump the OS for me, I can start looking through it and telling you what you need.
I've never seen a hungarian windows mobile phone. ^_^

A cooking a ROM to Spanish.Help me

Hi,
Greetings to all developers and members of the site. I have found through
lucky this site where there is a lot of specialists in the issue of development of Windows Mobile.
I come to ask one big question I have on this to modify the language of
Windows Mobile 6.5
I have a Smartphone MWg Zinc II, a Windows Mobile 6.5 installed on
English, my interest is to install, but in Spanish, for what I need from the
help of some genius of this community for this great task. I am available to help with the translation of texts into Spanish as it is my native language. On the programming work I do not know much, but I'm in the position to help in any way possible.
Code:
http://www.ipmart-forum.com/showthread.php?t=391970
This is the page where I have published the ROM.
I guess I should not be an easy task this work, but aid
someone can give me.
I await your responses.
Greetings
What you need to do is to port a build to youre device. If you then want spanish, theres no problem when you have ported the build. You can do a search on the forum about porting and about lang etc..

compileing problems

Hello guys
I'm new here, and this is one of the first times I write here, so I hope you can help me
The thing is, I have a smart phone Samsung Galaxy S 2, and I really want to install it launcher called SPB Mobile shell, how long before I discovered that the global SPB company bought a Russian organization called yandex.
yandex yandex out a program called shell, which is actually completely free SPB, the problem is it only Russia and Turkey is not it.
And I want to translate the software and here I got into for the first time in my life with programming, I'm an IT professional, but not one who's been doing programming or tampered with.
I started doing tests online How to open packages APK, and make changes and I came across software called APKMULTITOOL, I do decompile and then replace the files I need, but can not do compile, and you get an error in software, the problem is the log of the software it does not say (or maybe I can not read it) would glad if you can direct me or help me make this change, I'm sure it will help many people ... think of using free SPB
