Hi to all,
Does anybody know how to change UI language in Google Latitude?
Mine reads regional settings and gives me whole UI in local language, and I prefer it in english.
But there is no way to change the language.
It is so annoying that I am on the verge to uninstall Google Latitude because of that.
Thanx in advance!
Google will per default direct you to your local language. I think it is possible to "trick" it to get you an English version
Just look around at the download page, should be a "change language" option for the download.
Google Latitude
Sorry Snapphane, but you are not right.
I have downloaded Google Latitude using my computer with all english settings.
Also, I tried to change regional settings on the phone, and if the settings US, then the program 'speaks' english. When I change it back to other country, it changes UI language to that country.
I was asking if there are hidden settings (some registry tweaks, maybe) to keep Google Maps (Latitude) using english for UI.
Delete the language files that are in the GoogleMaps folder.
I had the same problem so before installation of GoogleMaps I changed the regional settings to English. After installation I deleted the language files (only kept "gmm_launcher.dll", "gmm_setup.dll" and "GoogleMaps.exe".) and changed the regional settings to my native. GoogleMaps stayed English
Works!
Thank you Bulls-eye1!!!
Well, that was easier than I thought. Nice solution m8, thanks!

My HD2 has Traditional Chinese interface, but I don't know why the weather location is showing in English. I've tried deleting the city and re-adding it (the name of the city is showing in Chinese), but location is still in English.
Does anyone know how to change the settings? Thanks!
Hi mate,
Can I ask where you got your Traditional Chinese rom from? I've been looking for one to see what the rom is like.
cheers
hi,
I bought it in Hong Kong. It's pre-installed with Chinese version.
I think you could either edit the weather database file, or replace it with the same file taken from a Western WWE ROM (it´s inside the Windows folder, "2330fc3c_manila", the size is around 800k).
I used to do this when using a WWE ROM, but changing Manila´s language to my local language. This way, I had all the cities in my own language...
Does making this change also change the weather description from WWE to locale?
I would like to force a specific speech language for Google Nav; The reason is that the road names are in french where I live and the English speech engine obviously fails horribly at pronouncing them.
Now I know I can get French speech by switching my locale to French but I don't want to switch my system locale just to get French speech in one app.
I tried going into Text-to-speech settings, changing the language to French and checking "Always use my settings", but Nav doesn't seem to care at all!
Is there any way?
Thanks for your time!
No one?
Hello,
I'm experiencing the same issue.
the google NAV take the language of the phone, whatever you set in text-to-speech setting.
so the only way I found is to place a shortcut to the language settings near my shortcut for the navigation.
I hope refreshing this topic can bring us more luck.
anyone got any trick ?
I use english language bing map when i am outside of asia, but now that i am back i want my map to display chinese font instead of english...
I am living in asia right now, and when i open bing map it still displays in English font (like english translation of the city name or street name, ie. 台北 it will show as taipei (for those who can read chinese))
I have went into settings "region + language" but i cannot switch the display language as it is greyed out. I tried changing the region format, system locale and browser/search language to chinese but that doesnt work also...
How come display language is greyed out?? can i change that or is that preset with each mobile phone
I have an unlocked (Non-branded) HTC Mozart 7
Thanks!
Hi,
My phone language is english and my contacts names are hebrew.
I really like kitkat default dialer,
but since the dailer letters are english T9 "auto complete" doesnt work for me,
is there a way to change dailer language like in exdialer?
I would suspect if you change the language of the phone that it would automaticallychange the dialer language; I can't confirm this because if I change the language i would never get back . But no you can't just change the language of the stock dialer by itself.
change dialer language
you can do that by installing xposed and then in xposed download and install "app settings" it allows you to change locale for specific app.
if you are not familiar with xposed it would be better if you read on it a little.
im not using a nexus 5 but this should work for most phones
Have the same problem, but with another language. Locale doesn't work for it.
I'm here with the same problem

Hi! My default phone language is Ukrainian, but dialer En. How can i solve this proble?
I have a canadian version of the S8+ and I want to change the display language
I go to General Management-Language and Input-Language.
There I have some suggested languages and I have the option to add other languages
so I select to add a new language.
For example I select Greek and then I put it at the top.
After that I see that the phone is half translated.
Some of the icons i.e contacts, phone, calendar are translated in Greek but the most important
the Settings is not translated apart 2-3 options.
Just to be sure I delete English and I leave Greek as the only display language and again nothing.
The phone is not fully translated and espeically the settings.
I change the language to German.
I have the same result. Some options in Settings are translated in German but the rest remains in english.
Then I select french.
It seems French is ok. All settings are translated and all basic icons.
Is there a fix for that?
Why do I have half translated display languages?
Do I need to add a special code where the phone will start clean in that particular language?
