Hi,
Is there trick to change the default language for a single app?
I have my OS in English and I have installed a French subway application.
This French subway application is using automatically using English language because my OS is in English. I would like to have this application in French (because the English version is badly done) and there is no option to change this in the app settings. This application is normally in French, but I cannot have it in French.
I have a rooted Android phone (Galaxy S4),
Regards, Chris

This app was posted some time ago. Hopefully it helps. I've tried using these before - I live in Taiwan and the naming conventions can be monstrous. There are several variants in the app store. You might also consider setting up a widget for a quick EN-FR change over before launching the app.
Bon courage !
Best, Eric

Thank your reply, this app is not working on my Galaxy S4 unfortunately. I have Android v4.3 and this app is compatible until Android v4.1.2
"This app only works until 4.1.2, some permissions changed after that and the app is not allowed to change the phone's configuration"

I am thinking of importing one of these phones to Europe from China. I've read the reviews and seen the videos and I am sold. The only thing holding me back is that this is a phone created for the Chinese market and I live in Europe.
Will I be able to change the language to English and remove the Chinese language from the interface. The videos I've seen show the device using the English language but there are still a lot of UI elements in Chinese (i.e. a video showed someone writing a message using an English keyboard but even that had some Chinese buttons).
Another video showed the installation of Google Play Store (as it does not come preinstalled) and even the Google apps had Chinese text written next to the English name of the app.
I'm fine with all Chinese text in Xiaomi apps like their own app store (as I will not use those apps) but I would like the rest of the phone be entirely in English.
Thank you.

The OS default has English as an option. But bear in mind, the phone is designed for Mainland China market,so some software,features you will not be able to use it else where. Surely ,can flash with your own ROM. It is a great phone with competitive price.

How much did you pay for it?
Is it announced a UK release date in UK?

I ended up paying 385 Euro for the 64GB version. This price includes DHL shipping cost to have the phone shipped to Cyprus. I also expect to pay import charges when I receive it.
I don't think they announced any releases outside of China. From what I remember reading online there might be an international version of the phone coming out during Christmas.
The retailer price for MI4 64GB is about 320Euro then you can work out how much the shipping cost would be.

Yeah, don't worry about the language. Just use the multi language ROM from miuiandroid.com. Comes pre loaded with Google play services, Chinese apps are removed, and is pre-rooted. It is also updated weekly with the official MIUI ROM.

Hi I downloaded 8.5.5.0 and when installing with the updater app, I receive a message "Cant verify update - its not allowed to upgrade to unofficial ROM package"
Do I need to change any settings ?
As you could have seen,np have only 6 languages available.
But find out that other languages are just hidden: was able to set Russian ad the default language with the help of morelocale2 and adb set permissions.
Everything works fine, but the internal search in youtube and Google music.the same time global search in launcher works fine recognizing and searching on Russian.
Any ideas how to fix youtube and Google music?

Hello to all and to all .
I'm the proud owner of a mate 8 NXT al10 Chinese version so if I'm not mistaken in 128 GB.
You must excuse me I do not speak any English so I use Google.
being French and not speaking Chinese while the only thing I have a problem with what I use very often with my phone is voice control.
My question is the following "" "Is it easily possible to place a file in the phone that will allow us to use voice commands in multiple languages" ""?
I hope I well expressed and especially as Google is my friend get me well translated.
Thank you to all
what u can do is install the google app from play store and set it as your assistance and voice control app: settings/apps/advanced/default app settings/assistance & voice input
set assist app to google app, that should do it. .

First of all thank you for responding so quickly.
But this solution does not solve anything at all and made some applications malfunction I would say it conflicts with the Huawei applications.
Actually what I want it is a file that can be installed on the phone to turn the Chinese into English French German Italian I think it would help a lot of people.
as far as i know the chinese hivoice control is only available in chinese, thats why i suggested switching to google app... try and disable the chinese voice control when using google app, maybe thatll help with the described conflicts. what exactly did go wrong, in what apps?

If I remember correctly when I tried to install google app from play store when I had chinese firmware it said that it is incompatible with my device. Not 100% sure now having the international firm... Does it work on your AL10 @Phil28?
It's a shame to have to change nxt to l10 l29. to change the language because it seems that there is some great work on the Chinese version of the MUI .From more 128giga version is it supported by the version nxt- l29

Hi everybody,
my name is Vincenzo. I am an italian guy and i have found a solution for anyone who wants to change language in Google Maps (or any other app) without changing system language. I registered only for this, I hope can help. (sorry for my bad english)
You need:
- Root, Xposed
- App Settings version 1.13
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3543022&d=1447594751
After accepting module, go to App Settings, found your app and set on "Settings". There is an option, "Locale". Choose your language (only for this app!) and save on the top , right.
My Maps now is in Italian (with Italian voice).

Hello, since yesterday I am a proud owner of the Honor Magic 2.
But how can I change the language of the stock HiKeyboard?
As you can see in the screenshot, there is no possibility for adding a language.
I want to have a german keyboard...
I hope someone can help me,
with kind regards
DGB
The only thing I can think of is, to install google services (if you don't have it) and install any keyboard app you like from play store
