Hi,
Installed the Slimbean ROM on my infuse as I wanted a light ROM. Works almost perfectly - all I need to get working on it is support for Indian languages.
Do I need to install specific font files? What about getting keyboard support for indic languages?
Sorry for the newbie question, and any help is much appreciated.

If you want to change system language you have to compile it yourself with big language pack or just your langauge, it's open source.
If you want fonts there is an addon pack available on the homepage or within updateme app.

Hello all,
I recently became a U8800 owner and I decided to flash it with the latest MIUI ROM, only to find out that their stock Android keyboard does not yet support text prediction in Greek or Greek keyboard at all. Since I didn't want to install a third-party Greek IME from the market, I decided to inject a Greek dictionary found in a previous CM Release plus a Greek keyboard supporting existing LatinIME.apk (from htc devs on a stock 2.3.5 keyboard apk).
It should work on all devices/ROMs, but you can try and share your results.
I also removed all other dictionaries exept english / greek to make it light.
How to install:
1. Navigate to /system/app using Root Explorer and copy/rename your existing LatinIME.apk to a backup folder in your SD card (just to be sure, should things go wrong).
2. Use Root Explorer to mount /system/app as R/W and then paste the new LatinIME.apk inside this folder. Change the file's permissions to rw-r--r-- after pasting.
3. Reboot your device and go to Settings > Language & Keyboard > Android Keyboard > Input Languages. Under Greek, it should now say "Dictionary available".

Hi ! It's a good news, since I'm seeking how to do the same for the French language since a ROM i flashed my Wildfire S with doesn't support spell check or prediction for it.
Yet, I'm fairly new to the modding scene (my previous phone was a an LG oldie...) and don't know how all of this works, so could you please elaborate ?
Do you mean I should try and retrieve HTC_IME.apk (I'm guessing it's the equivalent of LATIN_IME.apk, but for HTC...) from the stock 2.3.5 ROM and replace the current crappy one with it ? Are the dictionaries contained in the apk ? If not, where will I find the French dictionary ?
Thanks for reading me, I hope you can help.
I would gladly click the "thank you" button for your OP, but I can't seem to see it...
So here goes the old-fashioned way : Thanks !

Yeah I stumbled upon this same folder en.us in usr/ and it's purely useless (in regard of our problem) as far as I can tell...
But I found a way to get it back and working. It's basically the same procedure, but for HTC. I just posted it, I hope it'll help others as well :

I read a lot of posts here abut installing Hebrew (MENUs) in android Chinese devices... But this is not my question
I just want to know - if the direction of right to left (rtl) is solved in android 4 version.
I want to buy Chinese device - leave the menu in English - and just want to type and read Hebrew (sms, surfing etc.) - (buy downloading hebrew keybord app).
thank you alot - this will help me.

IMHO, for writing hebrew and reading it, I think is not related to the Android OS version.
Also, I think maybe the problem is that you can not change the rtl setting in chinese devices.
You could try to get a multilanguage rom for your device and check if hebrew is included.
But that was just my opinion.
Have a nice day!

Hii
Hebrew is not included in the languages menu.
But I read a lot about that android 4.0.3 support RTL - and don't matter if it's Chinese or not.
Hi again.
I have tested with my phone, SGS+ with "paranoidandroid" rom (ICS) and changed the system language to hebrew (i think it was) and I can write from right to left using the stock android keyboard.
I meant chinese phones are less supported and you will have a hard time searching a compatible rom or even rooting it.
So, question answered?

1.You probably try this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale&hl=hu
Notice: only works with those application, which have indian languages. - with sytem apps dont work
2. try ro install some CM 10.1, or other roms, whic is in the developer section, and which has indian language support.
(+1. - this is the most difficult and time-consuming solution (I try this, translate the official JB rom from English to Hungarian):
You decompile the main apps (framework-res, moto-res, blur-res, system, setup, phone, chinamms, browser, etc... cc. 20 app) translate the .xml files, put this in the res/values-in and recompile the apps. - it"s realy hard, but the earlier ME ICS rom has indian language support, If I remember correctly, and those files may help.)
Thank you so much _ghiottone. I will try and get back.

It's posible... but you need "developer's skills" if you want insert the italian language in your current Stock ROM. On the other hand, the "Easy" way is install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImpwLmNvLmNfbGlzLmNjbC5tb3JlbG9jYWxlIl0., and set your LOCALE (I assume is it_IT). In general all non system apps will be translated, and maybe some system apps too, or maybe not.
Another "solution" is install a Custom rom like CyanogenMOD. You can read this thread.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2121029.

hello friends,
My problem - I want everything in spanish in this i747m s3, this phone comes with only french, english and other character language,
I tried ALL ROOT APPS changing system locale, like morelocale, language enabler etc etc etc but none of them is changing system language to spanish
I then decided to install slimrom but it required TWRP and TWRP is not mounting my device storage.
Now I don't have any other option to modify stock ROM and add spanish language to that ROM and flash it.
Please tell me how to do it?
I have linux Mint distribution installed on this computer,
I found some link here, which one to follow, please add something if those links are missing some steps to add language in STOCK ROM.
