Newbie post
We are looking to have versions of our *very* simple game in different languages. Which ones are most important to have in place at launch? Which can we delay?
Here's the list we're going for:
ENG French German Italian Spanish Russian Swedish Japanese Korean...
...should we prioritize any in particular?
And a follow-on question...we would keep the splash and about pages in English (to make our lives easier) because that translation would be a lot more involved. What's the consensus on that? Is it reasdonable to expect users to have some English facility?
Many thanks!
Cheers, S

I am making a little poll here which languages are needed most!
I am not going to make three versions of my future ROMs! So with this poll, I want to determin the top 4 languages and make a version with those 4 languages next time (English will always be in the ROMs)!
Sooooo if nobody votes for German, there wont be a German ?
Exactly. I don't care, which languages are in the ROM, because I make my personal ROMs anyway! And in those ROMs I will always add German!
Hi I would also like to see Czech language. Olda
Maybe add all languages to one rom?
Don't think there's enough space in the VOX's 64MB's rom.
I've no problem with english, on the contrary in this months with only english I got used to it...it is more effective and words are shorter
BTW...this poll seems to a me a race...so let's race!!
Why there isn't Russian in that list?
Portuguese.
I can't find many ROMs in that language and i think is not proportional to the speaking people (240 milion). Even we could use generaly in English i think we deserve more.
Thank you.
I neither have Russian nor Portuguese language files. That's why they aren't in the list! And no, not all languages fit in one ROM!

Hei frau...I think that the Gonzo's cab method isn't adaptable in this case, or is it?
Master - please make the newest WM 6.1 CLEAN [MULTI-LANG] with Polish lang of course
If its possible ... give us polish lang
Why there isn't Spanish in that list?
And again, I only have those languages, I need the 6.1 mui-files for more languages, but I don't know where to get them from!
How long this polll will be last?
I think one more week!
Simplified Chinese

May be you can keep this thread open 'forever' so that every time you plan to cook a new ROM, you can check out which are the 4 hottest language then
I Vote Danish but it's not there so English in my 2. option and thats not there eighter
Well, English is always in the ROM!
And for the last time: these are the only languages that I have!
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. ^_^

If you don't know it, the CHTEditor thread is here.
As requested (many times), I've added translation capabilities to CHTEditor. If you are interested in translating the application to your language, please check the list below and see if anyone is already offering to translate to that language. If not, post your interest and tell me which language(s) you want to translate.
If you offer to translate a language that's not already on the list, then I'll be in touch with an invitation to a private group where I explain how you do the translation.
There's over 150 phrases that need translating, so it make take a while. Please only register interest if you're happy to do it.

Update
The story so far - 22nd April, 2010
There's a quite a lot of people that have already offered to do translations. I've given them the kit they need and now it's up to them to get on and do the actual hard work.
I'll be releasing a new version of the editor that offers mulit-language capabilities. I plan to make these accessible from both this thread and from within the application, via a languages menu option.
All being well, we should have some translations working on your devices by next weekend (01/05/2010).

Perhaps stupid question, but how do you get more languages?
According to androidos . in/2010/12/android-2-3-brings-more-languages-support-incl-hindi/ it should have support for alot of languages, but in my phone I can't see for example serbian or swedish. Not as language and not as keyboard.
Any way to get swedish support without a third party keyboard? Is there anything official or only apps like MoreLocal2? (Phone is bought in USA)
I have the same problem with portuguese brazilian...
Hi guys!
Sorry if I placed the thread in the incorrect category. I want to buy a US verision of S22 Ultra and just wondering if I can add Russian language as a default system language. Can anyone check the language preferences on the US version and find what languages you can choose (with All languages option acivated). Thanks in advance and plus to your karma
Russian is available as a language on my US S22U.

Thanks for your reply! Could you please change the language to the Russian language for a moment? Just to make sure that the phrase on the top of the screen of language settings is changed from English to Ru.
It seems like the US version doesn’t support any language except English or Spanish for the whole Menu
Sorry, not going to do that. It had selections for many areas on the phone. Russian was the secondary language, but there were settings for the keyboard and other items. I do not know if you set it up from the beginning if you can select Russian as the primary language. If so, it should change all menus.
There is Russian language when you click on the three dots, but most is still in English. I want to use Dutch (Netherlands) but most is also in English and it says ''May not be available in some apps''. Is there a way to get full Dutch (Netherlands) language? I have S22 Ultra S908U1 from the US.
