How to change the hard keyboard to Chinese mapping?

Hi there all, I have searched and read and then searched some more, even on other forums but (probably due to my technological stupidity) I have not found an answer... I need to use Chinese sometimes when emailing or smsing etc and I like to use the hard keyboard if its going to be a long one (amazing how quickly I got to like the qwerty keyboard)... now I have AEKmap so I can quickly change from the English one to a Chinese one (or so I thought) but I find that it does not have a Chinese keyboard listed in the options (just the default and a couple of Russian options). I have CEStar installed and also the d-ear Chinese sip as well as the 10 Key d-ear sip... but still cant find an option to enable the Chinese mapping for the hard keyboard. Am I missing something obvious (all to likely given my skill with tech stuff) or do I need to find a Chinese keyboard map? thanks for any help anyone can offer...
CE star is a solution but it s not free
and the logiciel bug my HTC wizard and Kaiser (hard reset)
Thanks but I already have CEStar but when I slide out the hard Kb it wont let me choose a Chinese layout and I can not type in pinyin... (wont let me choose a sip), would sip change help here?

install CESTAR or A4 pinyin input for Kaiser
then, open up your registry editor
go to HKLM->HARDWARE->DEVICEMAP->KEYBD
change curlang to 0x804
restart your kaiser
slide out your keyboard, the Sym/Tab button should allow u to switch to chinese input (if yours is a Eur/US device)
if yours is a Chinese APAC device, then you should see a chinese character at that button.
the button is on the left of the space bar
I have CEStar and it works perfectly for me. as long as you select the chinese mode, you will be able to eithe type in chinese with the keyboard (slide-out) or type with the stylus (regular)
Ruffruff... thanks for the advice, if I make this regedit will it be chinese layout all the time or can I select between default and Chinese in AEKmap?
Zcsx1985 yeah I sort of worked it out, I had to select the sip in portrait and then when I slid the keyboard out it worked fine...
Actually now that I have done that I can bring up the sip switch thing (little triangle next to the keyboard symbol on the screen) after sliding out the keyboard which I couldnt do before and now its all ok... well so far... cheers

Hi Shadow, how did you get the d-ear sips to work? Any special configurations necessary?
I have not managed to get them to work properly. when i type any messages, it appears right on my kaiser screen but when sent, my client will receive a whole page of question marks.
Did you overcome that issue?

I didnt do anything special, just install and then use... is your clients phone set up to receive Chinese characters cos thats the only reason for them not being able to receive them I can think of.. of course I am not too knowledgeable about such matters so it might be something else... if it is perhaps try uninstalling and then reinstalling... plus I am using a cooked ROM not stock...

I have an English ROM, how can I get Chinese MENU (switchable to English) and Chinese Pinyin input...? Thank in advance....
I'm using a WWE ROM and after I installed CE Star and the input method, it works great without any registry modifications
but one thing that bothers me is everytime I need to open the soft keyboard, press the "Chinese" symbol" once, then I can use the "input switch" button on the hardware keyboard to switch between typing English and Chinese ...
Tony as Kw31 says, CEStar is my main IME and it works fine, only conflicts with MS reader when its in Chinese mode (and also Pleco2 but thats another program)...

Please help help me.. urgent..

i used "AE Button Plus" on Diamond 1 and it worked great. but it doesn't work anymore on HD Mini. any idea why?
my HD Mini is english version. if i set my location to Hong Kong, google map & opera will switch to chinese menu. but if i set my location to USA, 2 mentioned apps also will become english menu (which is what i want) but then all calls will be in "(123)456-78" format NOT 12345678. how can i just set all apps to english menu yet calls will display as 12345678 format?

have you tried restoring to factory settings (and backing up all of your data)?
That usually always works.
Perhaps go to settings and change main language to english.
(1) my phone is brand new out of the box, so i doubt hard reset is the root cause.
(2) i changed to english, app menu displays in english but all phone calls will then display in this (123)456-78 format! i NEED it to display in 12345678 format.
any1 knows if there's registry hack for these?
anyone please?

[Q] Facebook dialogs in french - cant read them

Hi,
i've recently bought the htc one x with android icecream sandwitch i guess.
my problem is that, the facebook dialogs, which are used to allow apps to connect to facebook, are in french. My phone language is german. Does anyone know how to change that, if it is possible ?
That's strange...are you sure you did not install Facebook in French?
You could try to remove and reinstall it.
Another thing I can suggest is to try installing morelocale2(you find it in the market) and select german as your language, hoping it will uniform it as the main language of all apps.
Ok i tried both methods, these dialogs are still french. Although i was not able to remove the facebook app completely. I just could remove the update as this semms to be build into the rom. Any other ideas?
I'll attach a screenshot so that u can see what i mean.
Anyone figure this out? I just picked up my HTC One X and it is doing the same thing. I want mine in English!
i noticed, that opening facebook in the browser also gives me a french page by default. You can change the language on the webpage though. Still the screens within apps appear french for some apps.
This is getting really annoying

[Q] Changing locale for specific app

Anyone got a good tip?

[Q] Arabic language for HTC 1 M8

A Syrian guy bought HTC 1 M8, it still new, so I don't know what's the android version but it's the default one. He came to me for help.
He wants the whole system to be translated to Arabic, and that language isn't available. According to this video, if we just force stopped customization settings provider, it will allow us to select the Arabic language from settings.
Is It correct? Is it that simple? Don't I need to root it and stuff? What happens if he restarts the device?
