Hi,
I've been wanting to get Arabic support for my TD2, and there is several options being offered here. Below is my experience with them.
1. Mobidiv - this has the origin from Imaginet, now mobidiv. They offer good arabization to the user interface. However, the main drawback is their Arabic support is incomplete - no good support for diacritics. Basically, it is not very useful if you can to use text with diacritics in your documents.
2. Mersad (persion) - it is basically the same as Mobidiv, but with Persion font and transalation.
3. Microsoft_Uniscribe_28205.cab (search in this forum). I think this is probably the real USPCE from microsoft. The one from mobidiv probably is incomplete or it is their own version. My test shows that it does have full Opentype support, which means you can use any fonts from your PC.
Here's some tips for installing the software.
If you do not want to use Mobidiv software, go to step 5.
1. Install MOBiDIV_416_AR_Enabled_TSD_Apr13.cab. reset. Do not use 417 version.
2. Install additional software you wants like Quran, Calendar, Prayer times etc.
3. Test that everything is working. Installation from step 1 will keep the interface in English.
4. Run the Multilingual support (from Mobidiv application folder), and disable multilingual. Reset. This will make Mobidiv application still works, but without proper arabic.
5. Install Microsoft_Uniscribe_28205.cab. However, at the end of the installation, select cancel to reset.
6. From file explorer, go to Windows directory (be patient). Scroll down and look for Wince.nls. You probably need to select "Show All Files" option. Also, you won't see the ".nls", so you need to be carefull in this step. Rename the file to something else like Winceold.nls.
7. Reset.
That's it. You will have a proper arabic support (with diacritics). All of the above software is available in this forum. Just search for it.
Alternative to step 6 is you use Active Sync to rename the file. This step is important since from my experience, this will cause Calendar to stop working,and some other functions as well.
If your phone display square bracket when dialing, just copy Arial fonts to Windows\fonts folder. That should do the trick. For some reason, HTC phone application will use the first font it can find.
Right now, I have 3 Quran application on my TD2 - Mobidiv, PocketIslam and QuranComplex, all with Audio sync. All I need to do know is to study them .
Mersad Persian Language Support doesn't work on com 3 builds(windows 6.5.3).
any solution?
As mentioned in the original post, Mersad's solution does not work correctly for arabic, on any platform. If you need only the language support, then install Microsoft Uniscribe package (step 5-7). If you need Pesian Interface and Mersad's package doesn't work, you need to let him know.
No,I just want to able to read Persian Sms in com 3 ROMs,it works on the internet and word documents but in messages the letters is shown as squares.
That seems to be font problem. You need to install appropriate font for Persian. Try installaing the fonts from SIL. (Just copy to \Windows\Fonts)

Where can I get that fonts?
You can get from Mersad package. You need to extract the cab and install the font manually.

Windows 6.5 also supports Persian,and Energy ROMs has that(build 21916).
But Windows 6.5.5 is newer than windows 6.5,but both development is discontinued.If you want to use a fast and Stable ROM with windows 6.5.5 which supports Persian I recommend you to use CR192 Mozart ROM.it is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829540
Notice that CR192 Mozart has also two kind ROMs:6.5.3 ROMs and 6.5.5 ROMs.
And the Best Persian Language Support program at the moment is Mersad Persian Language Support.it can be found here:

This is the file...if you are using WM5 you need to change the registry
HKLM\software\microsoft\Fontlink\Systemlink\
Nina
change "\storage\windows\font....." to
"\windows\font....
HKLM\software\microsoft\Fontpath\
(there is only one string value here)
change "\storage\windows\font....." to
"\windows\font....
Then restart....
If you want to uninstall it, you have to use remove program first. Then go to \windows\font\ and change mshei.ttf nina.ttf to mshei.tt nina.tt. Then move them to direstory other than \windows\ and restart.
then delete those two files (otherwise those 2 files can not be deleted)
copy chinese font file(for example:sunfon.ac3) to your /windows folder
modify registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
"Tahoma"="\windows\\sunfon.ac3,SC_Song"
"Courier New"="\Windows\\sunfon.ac3,SC_Song"
"Segoe Condensed Bold"="\Windows\\sunfon.ac3,SC_Song"
"Segoe Condensed"="\Windows\\sunfon.ac3,SC_Song"
"SC_Song"="\Windows\\nina_cs.ttf,Nina"
"Nina"="\Windows\\sunfon.ac3,SC_Song"
how do I modify the registry?

Hi !
I tried to make some registry hack in order to read some documents with japanese characters in it.. But I failed. I don't understand ...
I have a french Rom and the default font is Segoe Condensed. So I copy new font into my Storage card in windows\Fonts\ directory, especially msgothic.ac3
Then I add these key in the registry :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink]
Segoes Condensed="\\Storage Card\\windows\\Fonts\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
Tahoma="\\Storage Card\\windows\\Fonts\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
SimSun="\\Storage Card\\windows\\Fonts\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
... and many other links (font used in my documents)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontPath]
FontPath="\Storage Card\windows\Fonts"
I checked that the fontlink is activated and finally i reboot my phone...
Everything goes right but when i open my files with ClearVue ... I always have squire instead of japanese characters...
Any ideas?

OK, you need another font set for CV,
pls try to those attached CV JP font into Storage Card\windows\.
i thinks it will work,
Thank you very mutch Asukal for your help !
Unfortunately .. it doesn't work. I tried to copy them into my Storage Card in windows and windows\Fonts and even on the system ..
But I'm wondering about these files.. they don't have any extension.. is it normal or should I rename them with .ttf ?
they doesnt need any extention.
this was taken from Japanese CV applications,
and worked on a WM5.
so it may different style of font?
Any way, CV doesnt read font of TTF or ac3<on WM5 and PPC3>
The way,, if the CV for SmartPhone JP, or such like application,
you can extract them and take those files,
Or,,, location of those file??
i thinks same folder as CV.exe or windows folder.
But can not place them on \main\windows....
i will check the Chinese SmartPhone how they do?
Now it no battery charging to check!
Wow this is a quick answer
I've just try to copy these files on the CV directory... But without success ..
I'm gonna write an email to Wettek to get more information about it ..
my chinese smarphone doesnt have CV,,
and i couldn find any japanese CV for Smartphone now,,
Anyone have the solution ? T_T

In fact they said that it would work with japanese font installed. But I've added this font (msgothic) and it don't work either.
I did not find any japanese rom for smartphone except from microsoft *for development purpose*. It's in such rom that i've extracted ac3 font.
I can't even try these new dictionary :
http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&productId=191833
http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&productId=191878
They need to be runned under a japanese rom to work.
:x
I don't understand why microsoft don't make patches to enable other languages in WM5 SP/Pocket
hi, i agree that!
anyway, i checked SDK emulator Image for japanese SmartPhone,
then i have found registries as follows.

can you try this? if wettek corect, your smartphone has jp font you can read.
But you can modify strat as: Storage\

I'm gonna be mad :shock:
Can anyone makes me a cab file with these registry hacks, I'll try it again with all keys added.
Thank's Asukal for your help and your patience !
hi,

Hi,
I've tried to copy the contents (4 font files) of CV_JP_FONT.rar into \Windows folder (not under Storage Card or \Windows\Fonts folder) and loaded Japanese PDF document with ClearVue PDF in my Dopod S300 (HTC Star Trek).
Certainly it works...
Of course, Japanese system font has been copied, and related registry also set in my S300.
Pls check again.

I've also tried to enable chinese character. Nothing !
Is it possible to use a real rom under Smartphone emulator? If so you can try with official Orange ROM. See under this section "SPV C600 French ROM" or tell me how should i do to make a full backup? (maybe with awizard 1.3 ? )

I've downloaded a DOC file from the site you mentioned and open with ClearVue Document, it can work quite correctly...
I think the CV font is not depend on the original font in DOC or PDF files. In this case, the character is certainly displayed with MS UI Gothic font that installed in my phone, even though the font is specified as SimSun (S/Chinese) in the original DOC file.
For now I can't do anything for about a week. I'll not have an acces to the web. I hope that i will find a solution to my problem during this time...
Thank's to both of you. See you next week

Hi ppl,
I've collected all the tools I use to translate roms from our chefs (God bless them). I don't want to steal anyone's work so the most of the credit should go to the creator of the tools I've packed, so all but Muiver, 2bytecut, Go.bat that were made by me.
It should be easy for everyone to make a translation following these steps (it's easier to do than to read ...):
1) Download and install windows PROFESSIONAL image in your language (source language) from here
2) Download your preferred foreign language (destination language) ROM (i.e. TNT or OCATIVOI or whatever ... )
3) copy the images over microwave dir, go to the command prompt and run GO "your language image file" "foreign language nbf file":
4) Let it run ... When Muiver opens up, set the right languages, pick your preferred options and hit GO.
MuiVer automatically looks for the right directories in the MS dump and copies it over the image that needs to be translated, modifying some files and making things you don't have to care about. At this stage you only have to choose, based on your (future) experience, what you want to copy and what not. The options are : Mui directories (OS), Other Mui files (OEMapplications), Other non MUI files (other language related files like staticdict); The more you copy, the most will be translated, more problem you may experience (missing texts, or applications that goes blank screen).
I suggest to always copy the MUI directories and experiment with other options.
5) You're nearly done only have to edit initflashfiles.dat according to your language. This file contains the localized name of some system directories and especially the start menu and start menu items names.
When wincmp opens up you will see two child windows: the left one is the file you have to edit, The right pane c0ntains the initflashfiles localized for your language. Edit the left one, according to what you can see in the right one and then "save source" from File menu. Take big care to the name of the "startup" dir (i.e. in italian it must be changed in "Esecuzione automatica") otherwise your rom won't start the customization (no screen alignment, no initial settings .. etc etc..). I suggest not to change the name of the links in the appbutton section however.
6) When nb2nbf opens up, set everything like always (look at the picture) and hit "translate" button
Flash your new translated rom (tools included)
It's a beta, just test .. I am quite happy with it. I'll update the script to run with other devices.
DOWNLOAD links beta3:
Rapidshare Download link
Mediafire Download link
Fixed beta3:
- Added a new tool to speed up initflashfiles.dat editing
Fixed beta2:
- Before flashing move or delete manually the file nk-old.nbf or the Updater could reflash that one in place of the translated one
it is good post, even in microwave oven cooked!

New tests shows that a very little number of .mui files (out of .mui dirs) are compatible with our WM6 releases ... for safe translations, do not copy them at all (MuiVer->File->options->Other Mui Files -> ignore all)
Hint: Take a look to the initFlashfiles.dat in the dump.src dir before editing the new one.

One quick question - Does it translate all content of the ROM, incl. OS and OEM applications? Or only OS, not for other applications in the ROM? Thanks?
it doesnt work with me i have downloaded all image file's from microsoft and when i instald it i get a pocket pc dir a tools dir a Images License txt file and a Images Readme file so i placed it all including the nbf file in the microwave dir and pressed go and a msdos screen flashes for about i mili second and then it does nothing did i do somthing wrong??
or can someone please explain me better
thanx

Can you explain a little more point number 5 and 6 plz?
I'm transalating from wwe to spanish thx.
It's my first attemp to do something with kitchens, etc...
Nice release pal.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but is not working for me... That's what i did:
Downloaded from MS my localized image and installed it (I don't have the emulator installed, just the image).
Already downloaded my english ROM (in my case, TNT 5.0)
Did the GO stuff in this way "GO <localized-Image> <TNT5-ROM>
Then flashed the resultant ROM and it is still in English...
... What I did wrong?
Could you please post a detailed explanation (if it is possible with printscreens) about this process?
Sorry but I'm a little dumb using this one...
Regards and keep on doing this great job!

Does it translate all content of the ROM, incl. OS and OEM applications?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It basically translate the OS and some HTC applications, but due to the high number of versions around, it is safe to only transalte the OS part. I've experienced problems with some HTC applications not displaying properly after translations. So you better make some tests excluding or not some files / dir from Muiver. I'll try to release a more flexible Muiver soon
@danny de w
Open a DOS prompt and type "GO <name of the MS image>.bin nk.nbf"
@cesarr4
Did you move your old nk.nbf in a different place ? The script renames it in nk-old.nbf but this is sometimes not enough: the update utility will still pick the old one in place of the new one. The easiest solution is to move the nk-old.nbf away from the microwave dir.
@JouSePo and ALL
I am at work right now and can't take pictures, I will do a better explanation with images when I'll be at home later. By now I can try to explaint it better by words:
During the process some applications will pop-up asking you to do something:
- the first one is the MuiVer, that automatically looks for the right directories in the MS dump and copies it over the image that needs to be translated, modifying some files and making thinghs you don't have to care about. At this stage you only have to choose, based on your (future) experience, what you want to copy and what not. The more you copy, the most will be translated, but you may experience more problem (missing texts, or applications that goes blank screen).
- The second application is a notepad instance, opened on your initFlashfiles.dat. This file contains the localized name of some system directories and especially the start menu. I suggest you to take a look to the initflashfiles present in the microwave\dump.src dir that is the localized version for your language and change the one in the notepad accordingly. The only part that REALLY NEED to be changed is the name of the "startup" dir (i.e. in italian it must be changed in "Esecuzione automatica") otherwise your rom won't start the customization (no screen alignment, no initial settings .. etc etc..)
- At this point the script will have built the nk.nb file that must be translated in a nk.nbf file in order to be flashed. This is done with the last program that opens up : nb2nbf. You will find a set of row in the middle of the screen, check the first checkbox in the first line and in the box on the right pick the nk.nb file from the microwave dir. On the same line choose OS in the combobox on the right and then just click on the text box on the left. A number will appear, it is all ok. Now click on translate and you're done.
Nice printscreens smogdragon!
Thanks!

Thanks in advance!
In addition to my previous post, I'm getting the following error message when click on "GO" button at MUIVER program (see attachment).
What is going on? It doesn't happens when using Beta2 release.

PPC_ESN_GSM_QVGA_VR.BIN is the best match with wizard's hardware.
As for the error, I've never seen that But I can see on the command prompt that you had a previous error "acces is denied". I would try to start clean, deleting dump and dump.src directories. Ah, be sure to have administration rights. Let me know
thanks for your prompt responses and your help.
I flashed the resultant rom to my Wizard and it is working fine but some issues arised with built-in apps. By example, the phone app doesn't start and built in software keyboard doesn't show up...
I was wondering if it is possible to extract the OS part from the MS image and pack it into a nk.nbf file and flash it (I mean, do not transkate a existing rom but using the OS inside the .bin file and flash it to the device)...
it is possible? what can be the side-effects doing that?

Hi all,
has anyone tried this one already ?

It seems to add some functionality to the Notification Manager (like turning on/off WiFi, for example). But I'm afraid it will not install, because we have the new Notification Manager already.
What do you say ?

Installed. Works well like this one in Shaks Topaz ROM for Diamond. Thank you.
Could any post a pic over what it does ?
Hi PhFr,
Attached you see what it does. Unfortunately it does not show "Battery" in front of the line. Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks and regards,

This one works. Thanks for it. Will come in handy and i can quickly access battery stats and Comm Man now.
Sidenote - I did get the old WM bubble notifications after the first reset but after soft reseting manually it worked.

Is there a solution for this?
I'd like to have it say "Battery" aswell...
I'd really like to see the battery word + icon on the notification manager to access its setting quickly (insted of settings tab - show all - system - battery...) any news or solution for the missing word? is it stable, and worth a try? please note that I have a touch pro 2.. thanks a lot for the info guys!
Works not on the MDA Vario V (T-Mobile branding)

Yes, there is a way to add the "Battery" string in front, but it requires you to edit a MUI file.
Let me explain:
When you install the distributed cab file it installs on your device various graphic files, plus 2 MUI files. These MUI files are for WWE devices. If your device is set to use other language as default (like mine which is set to work with Greek) then these two MUI files will be installed on your system, but they will be ignored, and the ENM will take it's strings from the original MUI that won't be overwritten by the installation.
There are two ways to get the "Battery" string showing.
The first way is to replace the original MUI files of NM with the new ones that the cab installs. This method arises another problem though: If you do so, the entire NM will be shown in WWE and NOT on your language. This means that you'll get the "Battery" string but all the other strings will be in English and not your language (e.g. Greek)
The second way is a little more tricky, but it has guaranteed results:
You just edit the original MUI file of your device to add the "Battery" string!
Since editing MUI files is tricky I'll post a quick guide on how to do it, but you may need to Google for it to get more details.
Everything will be done on your PC. You will need the following:
1. A MUI unsigner - Signer
2. A Resource Editor
3. The MUI file
I wish I had kept the links, but I only have the apps, so I can't tell you from where to get these apps. The MUI unsigner-signer I get it from these very forums (XDA). Use search to find it. For a resource editor I used XN Resource Editor
The MUI file you will get it from your device. Just browse your phone's Windows directory and copy NotificationManager.dll.XXXX.MUI file on your PC
The .XXXX.MUI part is actually the number of your language. For instance in my case I needed the NotificationManager.dll.0408.MUI which is the GREEK MUI file.
1.
Copy the MUI file on a short path on your PC, something like C:\Temp\MUI\
2.
Extract the MUI unSigner-Signer on the same path
3.
Run the MUI unsigner to unsign your MUI file
4.
Use the resource editor to edit the MUI file. Depending on the case you may need to add the string, or just edit it. We need to fill the string numbered 176.
If the string exists and it's empty just edit it to fill in the string of your desire. If it doesn't exists then create a new string and pay attention on the LANGUAGE selection upon the new string creation menu. It should be the same language as the rest strings on your file. Keep in mind that ALL resource editors will add 16 string in a row. That's normal, and it doesn't matter. Just use the create string command until you have a "176" value that you can edit. Once you edit the "176" String to say whatever you want it to say, save the file and exit Resource editor.
5.
Use MUI signer to sign your file
6.
Copy the modified MUI file somewhere on your device. Don't try to copy it directly on windows directory. The file is marked as "system" and windows won't let you overwrite it.
7.
Once you have copied the modified file on your device, use an application like Total Commander to do 2 tasks:
a. Backup the original file (by copying it somewhere) and
b. Replace the original file with the modified one.
8. Soft Reset your device and everything should be ok now!
PS:
By no way this is a complete guide on how to do it. It's just what I recall from the process I followed some time ago in order to do it myself.
Directions on how to use MUI unsigner-Signer you'll find on the thread that you'll get it.
PS2:
Be safe: KEEP A BACKUP OF YOUR ORIGINAL FILE FIRST!!!
PS3:
Have fun. If someone needs the Greek Translated MUI file PM me. I have also posted it on the ENM thread back at the time I created it...

I have installed ROM Yardie on my Mozart and wanted to use a *.CAB file to change the language to Czech. I found this file in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248799
Unfortunatelly it has some bugs (WI-FI menu, keyboard menu, phone,...)
Is it possible to repair this file? It would be very useful
Thanks
You should ask the OP for a file remake
