How to localize Touch Pro to Japanese language?

I cannot find any information on localizing Touch Pro to view and input Japanese language, though other models & lower Windows Mobile versions are available.
May be it's because Touch Pro is just still new!
I just bought Atok, Japanese Input System (cost me 5,000 yen), but could not get it to work on my Touch Pro/WM6.1 Pro. (1.90.831.3 WWE)
After checking Atok requirements carefully, it is compatible so far up to WM6.1 classic version. Besides, they must be Japanese version of Windows Mobile.
My experience with Windows system is that you can run softwares for English on Japanese version, but not Japanese softwares on original English version OS.
Does it mean that I have to 1.) give up trying Atok 2.) change my Touch Pro to Japanese Windows version (how can I do that?) or 3.) wait for the release of Touch Pro in Japan next year (japanese version) and ask again the question? Meantime, stick to CE-star, this allows viewing only, not input?
Or is there other way to input Japanese on my spec?
Appreciate comments. J.T.

I'd love to run Japanese Localization on my CDMA Touch Pro as well.

(edit: realized this thread is really old)
Find the relevant information here:

It has been tested and confirmed working on GSM Touch Pro, but should be no different for CDMA devices. You should of course still backup your data just to be safe.
Just for posterity, MS JPIME does work on WM6.1 Pro, and I am personally also using ATOK (Japanese word suggestion), currently with Da_G's WWE rom, so there are no compatability problems.
頑張ってね！

At the present time, if you want Japanese input/localization on the Raphael, then the below method (free) works best IMHO

I wonder how ATOK compares? If it is WAY better, then somebody please let us know. I could then try to persuade my wife to give me a cool 5000.....

ATOK is just word suggestion, but it's very nice and I'm using it on my Touch Pro. But word suggestion isn't as important on the Touch Pro since you have the full keyboard. I think it's more essential for Diamond users who don't have the keyboard.
If you want to see how ATOK runs, take a look at this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qbo5sKJEA1k
The video is actually TouchKeySIP input panel with Gesture10Key script (for the keyboard), and is running Advanced WNN which is a different Japanese word suggestion software but similar to ATOK. Here's a screenshot of ATOK on my Touch Pro:

[found & share] All for your Chinese_S Input needs under WM 6.5 + Sense

Hi all!
This is a popular question/concern on those forums for WWE EN users, I hope that it will help everyone!
I have been looking very hard to have all the input methods available in my Topaz since I upgraded to 6.5 + Sense.
Studio Kuma's solution is not working since the upgrade(plus it is a very ugly app!)
ZT4 is good, but no handwriting recognition
So, I looked on the Chinese search engine (Baidu, for those who know), and I found some cool stuff, and not even crapware! Very impressed that this exists in China
So, anyway, I am attaching the cabs and a bit of explanations :
- CEPenIM.cab is the handwriting recognition. It obviously needs some upgrading, as it was designed for WM 6 and earlier. So the interface bar is very tiny at the bottom and it is a bit hard to operate. But it works very well. According to my tests, it recognized my pig handwriting without any change ever needed! And hey, that's the only one that I can find, so I won't be picky. Also note that it is veeeeeeery fast.
- sogousip_ppc_sweb.cab takes care of all of your pinyin/stroke entry needs. It is far more attractive than ZT4 UI-wise, with even a dictionary embedded in EN input. Give it a try, you won't regret this
Both were tested in the latest Dutty's cooking environnement (good stuff, give it a try!), and no glitches were detected, aside from the limitations in the UI for CEPen thingy.
I always get Studio Kuma's thing installed for the Chinese fonts as an habit after a flash. I do not know if one of the attached cab got some CH font embeded, and am too lazy to try See if that extra step is needed by testing yourself.
Cheers, and I ll be lurking on the forums, so any question you might have please let me know.
PS : Sorry, it was a lucky catch, so I don't have the original website to link to.

Real Chinese?
Does it do real Chinese (繁體) and is it stable? I'm sick of hard resets after installing Chinese junkware that makes winmo poop itself (ce-star and all the culprits). All Chinese input should support at least CHT but for some reason some of it is just retarded mao stuff.

Thank you .......

Other SIPs
For myself with my Topaz with WM6.5, I've installed the HTC Chinese support to have traditional chinese :

1, Download and install Chinese Support:
(uhei00m-gray.cab), HTC Chinese Support
2, Download and install KUMA Chinese Input:
(imeonly.cab), 小熊工作室中文輸入法(手寫,倉頡及注音)

I guess your is the SM-P905 international version, if so you can flash Europe firmware such as UK which has several languages besides English

This is an example of an UK version

You could also get the Google's own pinyin keyboard.

Side-loaded input (Chinese) on android wear

This is kind of leisure review. I don't know how many people will be interested in Chinese input ~
Ok. Why Chinese?
1. I tried to side-load google keyboard, but failed
2. Chinese inputs (also Korean, Japanese etc) are quite different from the transitional English input system though they(we) also use traditional qwerty keyboard for typing.
As a Chinese living aboard, I have to switch between two type of keyboard in my phone which is painful. So far not even one input method satisfied me with both good balanced in 2 languages (phone input).
3. China has been long staying in an non-google environment, therefore their(our) app is specially-deigned for Chinese which you may think is strange or interesting.
Chinese input:
There are varieties of inputs in China (for typing chinese and english). As some of Chinese philosophy, you may find their(our) inputs are integrated with quite a lot of functions (just imagine wehcat vs whatsapp). Some standard features are: cloud dictionary, skin store (can upload/download keyboard skins), changeable keyboard hight, copy/paste/select + arrow functions, night mode (a inbuilt darker skin), voice/handwriting/pinyin/etc, emoij, sound/vibration font&size customization......................also others like floating mode, one-hand mode, swiping..........
I have chosen 3 apps, all latest version: Baidu IME (8.18M), Baidu input (7.26M), Sougou input (19.3M)
Note there is not much difference between IME and input, the 2nd is a branch from 1st one as specifically designed for older people (larger keyboad, easier menu and less wrong typo). Sougou is the currently the one with most population and famous of it's accuracy.
I have slightly change a little setting for watch but most remain default...e.g. there might be a skin with larger board or different key layout...
don't have much time to format my writings, just leave pictures below... and a hurry video.
One more thing, if I was not wrong, the internet connection (online voice, dic download) is not usable.

Video is somehow blocked..... no other way but: youtube.com/watch?v=sMdxK28C55Q&feature=youtu.be
Not ready to give any comments to the pictures and video, just not too bad if only for typing simple words.
But it will definitely disappoint (Minuum Keyboard?) you a lot if you expect too much... are you happy with that? or if you are waiting for a revolutionary watch keyboard?

Hi I'am Chinese too.And I want to ask that how you can run Baidu IME in your android wear.I use the moto360GN2.I have already installed the apk on my watch.But I can not open it on my watch.Neither can 去勾选and去选择.I am so gtateful if can give me some information about it.Thanks!

Before I buy a note 10 pro

I went to the store and discovered I like the note 10 pro quite a lot. The price is nice and I definitely like its photography qualites though the similarly (reduced) priced P30 Pro has more photo features. But the P30 Pro is a dead end, thank you Citizen Trump. One thing I noticed, and maybe I missed it, but it's a deal breaker for me. I didn't see a way to have more than 1 language installed. On every other android phone I've used, I've been able to set up multiple languages and toggle between them directly from the keyboard (I use gboard). Is that the case, then, that Xiaomi only lets you pick one language? Which means I'd have to go back into the phone settings every time I want to switch languages for messages. Or is there a way to make this work?

I tested this out for you. With my Mi Note 10, I can easily select different languages with Google gboard, see pic.

Thanks for testing that out. Unfortunately, the image is too small for me to see. And as the phone I was examining is a display model, I can't add gboard to it. If I understand you, gboard has the facility to add the second language even though it can't be done it via the phone's settings menu. I am curious, did you try to add a second language through the main settings menu?

I use gboard and could easily switch languages.
I only speak English so I haven't tried different languages in the phone settings, but this is a global phone so all the major languages will surely be included in the settings.
I guess there's no need to frequently change the language of system settings, most people will stick to their favourite language in the system and change their keyboard language depending who they are talking to. If you used gboard to do this before, you still can do this with a Mi Note 10.
If have another question, or I've missunderstood what you're asking, just let me know what you want me to try.
Those pictures clearer...

Once again, I thank you. I went into gboard on my soon to be a paperweight S4 to try it and adding languages worked exactly as you said. I never knew it could do that. Cool.
