I am planning to buy Touch Pro from either Germany or Netherlands because it is cheaper there and I would like to know from members from Germany and the Netherlands if the PPC comes with a standard english keyboard or a localised QWERTY keyboard. I am asking this because I would like to know if the keyboard is actually marked with "å","ö","ä", and other scandinavian letters.
I am thinking to buy now from http://www.2call.nl or anyshop from these list here
thanks
don't buy at 2call!!!
Sorry, I don't know about the keyboard layout of dutch or german Tuch PROs, but I know that you should avoid buying at 2call.nl.
I bought there. They delivered Touch PRO with faulty hardware and now refuse to take it back. They sent me to HTC to get it repaired (a 10 days old device, can you believe that!?).
HTC can't and tell me to contact the retailer again.
So now i am in an endless loop, wich 2call.nl should never have started.
Take my advise, buy somewhere else.
Regards,

Right now Expansys sells the WWE-Version (with QWERTY-keyboard) as well as the German version (with QWERTZ-keyboard) for nearly the same price here in Germany - llok at the Wiki for link. You can get the WWE-version on different shops in Germany, but it will become more difficult because now HTC and the providers started to deliver the German version - we had to wait a while until this happened ... So be careful and ask which version is to be delivered and shipped to you before ordering. In Germany, you may freely choose to send back the phone within 2 weeks if you do not like it (this is in fact EU-law, so it should work in NL as well - don't mention that is does not work or is defect, just send it back and claim your money back).

Dutch version w QWERTY
I have a Dutch version, it came with a standard QWERTY keyboard.
Thanks for the information. I am just interested to know if the keyboard is actually marked with "å","ö","ä", and other scandinavian letters.
Because I would like to know what to do when typing the "special letters"
Hi I have the german HTC version and its a QWERTZ and the scandinavian letters are NOT marked.

Thank you for this information. I will have to stay away from the QWERTZ keyboards Anymore info from the Dutch and other QWERTY owners in Germany and Netherlands? I also would like to hear from the British owners too.
I might be travelling to Germany, UK and Netherlands soon so I would like to have this information before hand to know what to go for.
A friend told me that even if I get the standard QWERTY without the scandinavian letters marked, I can download an available cab file and I can have them displayed by using Fn + a to get ä, Fn + o to get ö and Fn + p to get å. Is this really possible?

You dont need a cab - just use Schaps AdvanceConfig Tool (http://www.touchxperience.com/) an switch the layout to what ever you want. This is not a problem. I had a German Hermes and switched to English. Just don't get confused by the marking on the keys...

thanks for your prompt reply.
Does it mean that with AdvanceConfig Tool, I can have the letters easily without complicated button combination? I am still wondering how to get the ä,å,ö to my text messaging with this application...
Yes - at least for the german version it was like this. I flashed a englisch image, switched with schaps brilliant tool (its just changing registry entries) the layout back to german so that it was fitting again to the markings on the key. So I think it should work also the other way around, switch a german keybord to an scandinavian layout.

Hi! Please somebody who knows if HTC SENSATION bought in SCHWITZERLAND/SCHWEIZ is reading arabic language... Need answere quickly sinse I`m leaving the country tomorrow and they don`t seem to know it here. And by language I mean not just on the display but also writing and reading in arabic just like the phone read english for example.
htc mea on facebook said that if your device support arabic it should be clearly visible on the box.
so i guess if it's not visible on the box then your device is a european version that is not arabic enabled.
arabic enabled sensation where launched yesterday in uae.
for once htc is fast on releasing arabic versions of their devices
Must ask, does any of you guys have Swedish in yours?
I miss it in mine and wonder why? ... How can i get it to translate my device into Swedish?
I've now talked (e-mailed) hTC and my device is a Germany device.
Can someone tell me if there's a flashable stock rom from my region "Sweden/Scandinavian" out there somewhere?
Hello, I am currently living in China and I've bought here a Philips Entertainment Tablet 7 (PI3000). It runs an Android 4 in English and the HiMarket.
Is there any way to get it to run android with a German language and with the play store? If so, who has information, links, etc. for me?
Thank you very much

i can suggest to install it a clock work recovery, but it should be have under chinese clock work recovery, it is too dificult to find a german or another custom language because your tablet is available only in china market, also i am living in china ican suggest to buy domestic brands it is more convient for the have options, famous brands are have limited service in china and they are under the pressure of chinese government...
bla bla bla, shortly too difficult, try to install clock work recovery, my pal

I want to buy Acer Iconia A701 from amazon.de
I’m considered that being bought from Germany it would have user interface in German only.
Has anyone bough A700/701 from amazon.de? Do you have English language as an option?
What about those of you who have German ROMs like AV051_1.XXX.YY_EMEA_DE. Do you have an option to switch to English or the local firmwares have the local language only available?

The very first thing you do when you switch the tablet on for the first time is select the language.
And if I'm not mistaken, English is included in every Acer Rom, regardless of region.

So what is the difference between _DE, _FR and _CUS1 firmwares as they all support English?
likely different apps included on tab

It's the region. And thus contain support for languages specific to that region.
Also, there will be some different configurations such as APN's, and Wifi Configs.
As well as certain countries have restrictions on what can and can't be downloaded from the Play Store.
Although most of these issues are easily overcome with a few edits
