We we moved to Shanghai 3 months ago And my Dutch T-mobile couldn't display the Chinese SMS messeges and I'm also learning Chinese. I have some *** Flash a Chinese rom into it.
To cut a long story short it is not a stabel rom if it powers of reset avantgo won't run anymore etc. And I want to know the posibility's of Chinese mobile networks.
Found the roms in the wiki. BTW anyone knows a enlisch Rom witch also supports Chinese?
If You live in Shanghai and are a Geek in mobile devices and preferably also Apple computers feel free to leave a PM.
Thanks
hi nanmac,
Try this one and I think it will help
http://bbs.pdafans.com/viewthread.php?tid=176219&highlight=
i'm using a english rom as well
The Chinese rom witch is avaiable for download is traditional Chinese. (This is used in Taiwan and before HongKong)
I'm seeking for one in Simplified Chinese.
Or a englisch rom witch kan display Simplified Chinese. (Used in Mainland China, PRC)
@seasky what rom are you using and can it or can it not display Chinese simplified characters?
And My Chinese is not sufficient yet to read the page you linked, but I also could'nt find a rom there.
So please could you clarify what you are addressing on that page?
you may try a software called cestar,it will support simple-chinese quite well
Go to XDA-Wiki, at WM5 section, there is a method you can use to enable your device to support Chinese, without flashing the entire ROM. Just install a 3MB+ cocktail of stuff.
UPDATE: Oops, just notice yours is not a WM5 phone. Sorry.
I found a cooked wm5 rom with a iphone look!!!!
It's WWE (us english actualy) and it's full of tweaks and add-ons! check it out
check this site for screenshots http://www.cnsmartphone.com/29170/viewspace_2061.html
My first findings:
AKU 3.0
.netCF 2.0 in rom
Wm5torage
Great camera software
strange but can't find pocket msn or msn messenger anywhere....
new icons
nice apple logo instead of the windows logo.
great homescreen (very iphone)
celetask included (just press home key during 2 seconds but it's in chinese)
A very nice clock near the batery indicator.
Quite fast and stable.
i'll post more later for now it's time to reisntall my apps and games.
PS: please someone find us a way to have T9 in this rom...
here is babelfish.altavista.com translation:
---- Is suitable the type based on Singapore 2.0.11.0 edition: HTC the Tornado type (586W broadcast plug-in unit has not installed) ---- the partial systems document to take from HTC S620 (Aku3.0), the document edition has the promotion ---- ROM document is OS are partial, nbf document format ---- typeface: Song typeface ---- language: English ---- input method: A4 ---- Promotes the version ---- to join the short note service the WMP player to 10.3.15097 edition ---- promotion communications manager to 1.2.0.0 edition ---- promotion photographs software to 4.00 (Build23355), Push the Mail switch ---- joins the automatic time zone/time function (to have to coordinate corresponding GSM) ---- ---- to initialize China the promotion color letter procedure to 3.1.2.12 edition to move CMWAP to turn on network establishment ---- IA File Manager resource management ---- WM5torage 1.7 to sinicize the version ---- CeleTask 2.2 task managements and to integrate the Long_Home pressed key ---- to join the A2DP blue tooth stereo sound, the revision high-frequency unit flaw, Removes noise ---- multi- Pu to reach the SIM card manager ---- contact person to tabulate the chart sign ---- condition fence time........... Deletion: ---- Pocket MSN ---- Java MIDlet the Manager ---- system brings the chromosphere game ---- to like in the frame pattern plate, the camera tacitly approves the picture, the sound and the video recording
I'm already using it.
The cons: has no t9, but a chinese input method.
Post your findings please!!!!

happy upgrading for you guys, have a nice weekend i'll be back on monday to see your comments!!!
What font is being used? is it the typical Chinese ac3 font or Segoe?
I'm afraid i don't understand your question beacause i don't know the fonts you are talking about. please explain!
Guys this really works,
Just installed it on my SP5 over an SP5m firmware. Its very quick to install too. it took 3 minutes to install.
I will advise if it worths.
any news on this?
This is the fastest rom I used on tornado without overclocking. Quicker boot, quicker logoff and menu control. It is very pretty looking like Iphone.
The only negative is that the default input language is chinese, so you have to press * a lot to write. Everything else is in english.
If you are a tech freak use it.
Cheers
I am confused about the language options. If you goto Settings you should be able to select Locale and change it to US and English right? If not then change the registry to delete every other language besides English. I have don that in the past and worked great. However, I am not willing to risk downloading this ROM if the language isn't right. Any other bugs with this ROM??

I agree. also, it would be very annoying to keep on pressing "*" everytime you want to input text
a tutorial on how to make custom roms would be very helpfull.

Saw the link that you gave, it uses the usual chinese font, they are a lot thinner than the usual WM5 font which is called Segoe..
Not a big deal since we can change fonts easily thru Registry
thanks for the info by the way

Haven't tried it pare, wala na ako Tornado Try mo pre
Would appreciate if someone could post the free storage space and RAM left right after loading the ROM..
Thanks
anybody going to strip this down?!
would be great to get an aku3.x rom update for the tornado!
this one looks great. wm6 would be better though.
Wow, decided to quickly throw this on right before I took off to work this morning.
The very first think I noticed was the fix for my Motorola ht820 A2DP headphones! No more will I have to deal with the high pitched distortion/noise!
I'm assuming this was either just a partial flash, or it was built upon an imate rom because I still have my imate splash screen at the beginning.
I'm at work now, and I really should be working, so I wont have a chance to install any programs or tweak with the homescreen at all . . .
The iphone stuff is well done, but I couldnt care less about having a minimal looking screen, I'll go back to my previous settings . .
Also, hopefully I can search around here enough to find out how to get my t9 back. . . . not the end of the world but would be nice.
Would also be nice to get the midlet manager back.

Hi, i've already tried that solution but it doesn't work.
it's a diferent input software they used in this rom, it lacks suport for t9.
Can someone who knows how to speak chinese try to contact the maker of this rom (it's the guy in the link with screenshots i believe) and ask him for suport on how to make a xd-devs rom???
that would be fantastic.

Hello!
After reading and reading the Wiki for flashing the ROM to my Tytn II, I think I am ready. I still have a few questions ...
I have chosen to use the MicroSD card route as that seems easier to me. I just bought my Tytn a couple of days ago so I have the WM6 Professional CE-OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2 ROM version 1.56.413.2 Radio Version 1.27.12.11 running. It is in Swedish and I want the language to be in English. Do I have to downgrade first in order to be able to flash the WWE version ... in effect flashing twice?
Also, when I dowload and rename the ROM image I want, do I put the whole thing on the formated MicroSD card?
I have never synced my phone with my PC so that shouldn't be a problem right?
Thanks for the help!
Scarlet
Hi Scarlet,
Without actually answering any of your questions (sorry...), just a comment: with a Swedish TyTN II you have a Swedish keyboard also, don't you? I'm not 100 percent sure that the WWE ROM supports the Swedish keyboard layout so once you finished flashing you will have to expect issues with this...

Hi Abubasim!
You are correct, my keyboard does have åäö swedish characters. I was thinking I could flash the WWE ROM and then use the Swedish CAB to fix the keyboard mapping ... eller hur?
Jag är inte saker. Förstår du vad jag menar?
Scarlet
Hej Scarlet,
Although I haven't tried it myself, it sounds like worth a try. Check with other Swedes (or Turnips ) in this forum or maybe even other TyTN II owners back home there in Sweden.
Yes, I understand "jag är inte saker", means literally "I am not things" if you skipped the umlaut over the a in saker on purpose (Jag är finsk själv, men med svenskt medborgarskap.)

Good morning!
I have written to a couple of swedes, but no help there ... boooo!
No you caught me, I missed an umlaut ... swedish is my second language, I am originally from sunny southern california .
I think I am going to go for it on my own. I have had this phone burning a whole in my pocket for days and I can't stand it!
Wish me luck!
Yes, good luck to you. Be careful and read the updating threads and the Wiki thoroughly before attempting. I messed up my previous phone, the i-mate JASJAM when attempting ROM flashing by using a microSD card (the phone crashed in the middle of the update and became a brick but luckily I got it repaired under warranty[!]) so I will not try this path with my new TyTN II until I see real benefit worth the risk.
BTW, you have the best profile photo I have seen on this site. Is that you?
I hear you. I gave up on the MicroSD method and am now trying to use the Kaiser CustomRUU to extract and install the nbh file. I think there is something wrong with the NBH file I am trying to you (or i did something wrong ). Either way, I downloaded it and put it in the same folder as the KaiserCustomRUU program but i get a file error once I run the utility?? I am looking for a new file now to try!
Yes, that is me ... thanks for the nice words. I seem to be the only chick around that is way to into technology and cell phones ... I'm always attempting some type of shananigans ....
I sent you a PM by the way!

Re: SD Flash
Personally I'd recommend just using the USB flash method since that's what the vast majority of us use without flaw. The overriding important thing would be to make sure you install HardSPLv1 (available from the stickies in Kaiser Upgrading) to keep from bricking your device should the flash fail for any reason.
As for the keyboard, a cab file, or Schaps Advanced Config v1.1, or a registry edit will work just fine. What you'll end up with after one of those three is your English device with a keyboard that inputs exactly what you see (Swedish characters too).
The one downside to this is the word completion...when you switch the keyboard's language you'll have to also install that languages' dictionary for word completion to work, and in your case that would mean Swedish word completion. Although It may be possible to link the English dictionary? I never tried it myself with the German Hermes I had...
-Q
Thanks so much for the suggestions guys! I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT AND GOT IT GOING!!!! Turns out I didn't unpack the ROM rar file first. I just downloaded and renamed it ... duh! Once i figured out to *unzip* the rar file using WinRAR, then I found the right file, renamed it and used the CustomRUU deal. ROM was changed along with the language in about 10 minutes. I used the CAB file also to fix my keyboard to still give me the right mapping for the swedish keyboard! I have been working on this phone for 2 LOOOONNG days and I finally figured it out.
Now I have to figure out why my internet is not working ... I'm trying to download my one free map from TOMTOM and i'm getting no love! I'll get it ... more reading to do!
Thanks so much for the support ...
Hugs and kisses!

Depending on what ROM you used its likely your settings are not proper for your provider (or do not exist at all). Personally I prefer the latter since all the "automatic" T-Mobile configurations only use the slow APN.
I recommend searching for settings for your provider and inputting them as necessary. Unless you're talking about Wi-Fi in which case you'll probably have to go under connection settings and specify that your network card connects to "The Internet" (it defaults to Work).

Having Similar Problems Changing Lang from German to English
Good Evening,
I am New and Not Certain if this is venue to pose a question regarding how and where the Information regarding the Link or ?? Change My Language on my Branded HTC TyTN II (Kaiser 130 ) from German to English. The Telephone is Swiss German and I do Not Read, Speak nor Understand the Language. I was however able to Unlock the Sim in the First Stage and then do a Hard Spl V1 and everything is Excellent. But now I am having a Delima in finding a reference point to change the German to English language. Would you direct me to where I am able to go regarding the Flash Rom in English.
Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter.
You may send me an Email at [email protected] regarding the Info.
Have a Happy New Year !!

Sorry, I didn't read all of your post - you've already got HardSPL but I'll leave the info in to helps anyone else if they need it..
Possibly not the correct place to post the question, but it was so politely written I can't resist answering
Most of the roms cooked in this forum are in English language (maybe all of them except some versions of Schaps). For someone new who wants a good stable rom without having to do too many customisations I'd recommend the full versions of Dutty's latest, Schaps 4.30 or Sleuth.
Don't forget to hard SPL before you flash any ROMS and also check which radio will work with which rom here. If you get stuck with HardSPL, DO NOT flash any roms until you get this sorted (rom flashing is easier than HardSPL).
Most importantly, READ, READ and READ again before trying anything until you become more familiar. Start with the WIKI which is the root of all knowledge.
Oh yes, welcome to the forum
Hello all
A friend of mine is living in Korea will bring me his new T-Omnia next week. The ROM that comes with it is in Korean and he has some trouble navigating though it as everything is in Korean. I tried to find a WWE ROM for the T*Omnia but got nothing.
Question: is there an easy way to translate the menus and dialogs to English.
It won't be that easy. The T*Omnia is sold only in Korea, so no WWE ROM's exist for it. There are software solutions that can translate the menus in russian or bulgarian but I don't think something similar exists for english as it is the default language if WinMobile If course you can try to hack some other translation of WinMobile (bulgarian for example) and apply it to the T*Omnia but there are still 2 issues:
1. No guarantee that such a solution will work with korean ROM. It's intendet to localize WWE ROM's. On the other hand a friend of mine localized a NL Diamond ROM successfully, so it may be worth a shot
2. The T*Omnia has a (still) non-standart resolution. Just look at the HD compatibility list for problematic apps So this is also a possible issue.
Anyway. Here is the link to such a localization program. It supports a number of languages, so it may be of some help to you.
http://sunnysoft.com/software.php?idarticle=146
you could always cook us an english rom- i would love a T*Omnia running english!!!
none of the software in the link seem to have the ability to localize to english
i guess having the ability to simply have the main menus in english is "good enough" untill Samsung releases a WWE version of the rom. if someone can help with that, that would be great.
anybody can help with this?
I second this - I have a sch-m490 could anyone cook an english rom.
Same here, need that rom badly. Anyone please?
BUMP please help with this. Im in korea and i really cant use my phone right now. I couldnt enjoy my omnia. Please please help.
Please guys im so desperate here. Anyone please.
Hi, I recently got a HD2 and I've realized that it can't display Asian (specifically Chinese) characters. Everything comes up as blocks....I'm just wondering if there's a way to get around this? Is there any way to make it so the HD2 is capable of showing the Chinese characters? Thanks in advance
As far as I know, you need to flash a ROM that handles double-byte characters. My Hong Kong HD2 has an English interface, but also can read/type chinese characters.
I found the official English Asian version of the ROM at HTCPedia here, which is probably what you need.
search for a SUNGLOBE PATCH. then it will display it. even does japenese characters.
good luck!
Look for sunglobe.cab for a quick installation. This is only for viewing chinese characters; japanese characters will not be shown, and you cannot enter chinese characters without the proper input method.
And while unrelated to this matter, here is a manual fix for viewing japanese characters on WM 6.5 I had to make a few days ago:
1. Grab the files meiryo.ttc and meiryob.ttc from your PC's font folder (C:\Windows\Fonts), provided it has them (Vista or newer, I'm not sure about XP)
2. Copy them to your HTC HD2 (or if it doesn't work, copy them somewhere else on your PC then on your HD2)
3. Move them on your HD2 to the \Windows\Fonts folder
4. Use the following registry file (copy-paste in notepad, save as .reg on your device, execute):
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SkipTable]
"Tahoma"="00a5,007e,0391-03c9,2026,2116,221a,25a0-25ff"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
"Arial"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo"
"Times New Roman"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo"
"Courier New"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo"
"Segoe Condensed"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo"
"HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo;\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"Helvetica Neue OTS"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo;\\windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"Tahoma"="\\Windows\\fonts\\meiryo.ttc,Meiryo"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontPath]
"FontPath"="\\Windows\\Fonts"
5. Soft-reset your HTC HD2
Then japanese characters should show up everywhere and be linked correctly.
inputting chinese is not what he asked. that is related to ezinput and another ballgame. rhats funny that the sunglobe patch i have CAN do both chinese and japanese. so dont have to confuse the person who requested for it.
does anyone have the link to the sunglobe cab? i tried to find it but couldn't....

Maybe you didn't try hard enough.... a simple search of "sunglobe cab" in Google turned up quite a few results.
This link shows how to display Korean on the phone (I can confirm it works).

I am pretty sure you can substitute the Korean font for Chinese.

Thats not true... I have both on my phone and its fine... but I use the ricky Chinese cab thats floating around somewhere... the 21mb version gives me full Chinese reading, sogou gives me a great ime (and i also have plumsip and touchpal but got rid of the A4 as it didnt work so well for me) and with the ricky cab I also get China PRC in my regional settings... before I would only get this with CE Star which I havent put on my phone as the others all do a better more finger friendly job...
