Language Issue - General Questions and Answers

Hi. Last year my mother bought for herself a Vodafone smart 3. She's happy with it, but the issue that she has with the phone is that she can't change the language of the phone to Ukrainian (She's Ukrainian) because the phone only has English and Spanish. I have tried apps like locale changer and even an app that allows you to change the language of a specific app. All of them were useless, because they changed the language of the apps to Ukrainian, but, the system UI changed to english. Maybe someone knows an answer to solve this issue, thanks for reading my issue.

[Q] Locale fallback other than english

Hi,
I've been searching for a way to change the fallback locale in Android, and found nothing at all so far.
So, The phone is set to a particular locale, say Catalan. Now, whenever an application is launched that isn't translated to said language, the phone will fall back to english, and display everything in either catalan or english.
The question is... is it possible to specify a different locale for fallback? say... German? So the phone would try to display the application in another language before falling back to english.
I'd love that as well.
However, I'm afraid that the fallback language is an app decision.
If your locale is not supported, then the app chooses for you.

[Q] European Stock Image for US WiFi Xoom

Hi all,
I have bought a WiFi Xoom in US but it's a gift for someone who doesn't speak English. Does anyone know where to download the stock image that contains Italian?
Many thanks!

Bad news, not available and might not become available.
Two options: install a free kernel and add 0.5 language pack (major event)
or
use more locale app and change manually to "it US".
All apps will be in Italian, just the system will still be in English.

nice app, I installed it, though for someone that does not speak one word in English and is new to technology in general (and not that young anymore ) even just the system settings in English could be a big issue. I guess I better return this device and get a European one.
thanks for your help.

Additional locale

Hi guys,
Just got my Sensation a week ago and it's been bugging me but I'm unable to change the language to English (Australian). The only languages in the list are Asian languages. I know it probably makes no difference, but it's just been in the back of my mind the whole time Does anyone know how to possibly 'add' Australian English to the list?
Thanks!

[Q] Teclast P76 Ti

Heya,
My kid just got a Teclast P76 Ti in x-mas present. Can I do anything to it without ruin the whole tablet setup?
I've been searching and did not see anything about updating or rooting these devices.
One thing I've seen in the tablet is in the language settings.. the last 3 options are in chinese, how do I change that?
And is t possible to alter the OS in any way?
If so... To what?
Language selection options are usually in the language the person wants. The Chinese options will be for Chinese languages and anyone wanting these can read them. For example, if I wanted to set the language to Thai, the entry would say Thai in Thai script not in English.

Change System Language

Hello,
I've purchased an HOS from a retailer in Romania. I've received a device which was intended for France.
No biggie, but I'm not able to change the system language - I have only English (France) as a viable option.
Is there a way to change the "country" of the device ? I'm not interested on the Google Play market, but rather the device "ID".
I really need you help to point me in the right direction...
So when you started the device first time and the guide came on. You couldnt choose anything but english?
I could choose from Deutch, English, Espanol, Francais, Italiano, Netherlands and Portuges.
No Romanian whatsoever.
If I go to Language and keyboard, the language is reported as English (France).
I got same, my phone is also from France...
I think it should be possible to do so somehow, as the soft should be same for all devices.
Please see my post HERE it'll get you fixed up.
Man, it worked like a charm.
Don't really understand why wasn't available from the initial selection.
Greetings and recognition upon you.
Glad to help.
