Hello,
You need to change the following two lines on your local.prop file (located on /data/cust/prop/) to your location in order to do that:
Original:
ro.product.locale.language=zh
ro.product.locale.region=CN
You will change for example:
ro.product.locale.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=EN
You need root to access and save the file, also make a backup of the current file for future updates.
im able to get root access using file explorer. unfortunately i can't seem to copy any file in this folder. im using fx and mixplorer both failed
Try Total Commander.
Overwrite not working for me either.
But with root, first delete file, than copy new edited to folder, than change rwx properties of file.
But, Chinese symbols still present in call log. For country, Germany is ok, but instead of Czech Republic two Chinese symbols.

Thank you for your help!
But still there is no way to make the change without root ?
Well, I modified the local.prop and for me at least, it doesnt work. Chinese characters are still present. And I live in Spain btw.
Any update? I am also facing same problem.
After a reboot the new incoming characters (in emails) and the contacts should be OK.
100% Working !!!
how to remove all chinese characters from WhatsApp, Wechat, etc? need fully english.
Thanks
I have the same issues!

I know that was a long time ago, but there is any way to change the file directly on the "UPDATE.APP", in order to be ok whenever the system boots up for the first time?
Thanks

Maybe it is another post again about the autocomplete function, but I can't find an answer. I like this auto complete function, but the problem is that once you do a hard reset or install a new rom that all user owned words (words that were added by the system when typing) are lost. These words should be somewhere in a file, but I don't find this file.
Does anyone know what the name of this file is and where to find it?
Using File Explorer go into your Windows directory on your phone and then go to menu and click 'view all files' and you'll see a file called 'autocorrect'. That's the file you need to alter. Copy it onto your PC desktop and save a copy somewhere safe just in case you do something stupid. Now open up a copy of it on your PC and you'll see two columns - the left column is the 'typo' and the right column is what it corrects it to. You can add or change things here. I made "pcm' autocorrect to 'please call me' for example and 'tx' to 'thanks'. When you save the file do not change the format (Windows tries to save it as an Excel file- don't do that - leave it as it is which i think is txt). Now you need to replace the file on your phone however it is a locked file. Use your registry editor (I use Total Commander) and find the autocorrect file and change the settings so you can alter it. Delete the file existing on your phone and replace it with the file you just altered. Once this is done you need to soft reset and everything will work.
If you get a new phone or need to hard reset just make sure you take this file along with you and you'll keep all of your settings.
Thanks for the response, but it is not the file I am looking for. This is the file which is used when you choose the autocorrect function. This is not the file that is suggesting words while you are typing. Anyway, thank you.

Hi all,
has anyone tried this one already ?

It seems to add some functionality to the Notification Manager (like turning on/off WiFi, for example). But I'm afraid it will not install, because we have the new Notification Manager already.
What do you say ?

Yes, there is a way to add the "Battery" string in front, but it requires you to edit a MUI file.
Let me explain:
When you install the distributed cab file it installs on your device various graphic files, plus 2 MUI files. These MUI files are for WWE devices. If your device is set to use other language as default (like mine which is set to work with Greek) then these two MUI files will be installed on your system, but they will be ignored, and the ENM will take it's strings from the original MUI that won't be overwritten by the installation.
There are two ways to get the "Battery" string showing.
The first way is to replace the original MUI files of NM with the new ones that the cab installs. This method arises another problem though: If you do so, the entire NM will be shown in WWE and NOT on your language. This means that you'll get the "Battery" string but all the other strings will be in English and not your language (e.g. Greek)
The second way is a little more tricky, but it has guaranteed results:
You just edit the original MUI file of your device to add the "Battery" string!
Since editing MUI files is tricky I'll post a quick guide on how to do it, but you may need to Google for it to get more details.
Everything will be done on your PC. You will need the following:
1. A MUI unsigner - Signer
2. A Resource Editor
3. The MUI file
I wish I had kept the links, but I only have the apps, so I can't tell you from where to get these apps. The MUI unsigner-signer I get it from these very forums (XDA). Use search to find it. For a resource editor I used XN Resource Editor
The MUI file you will get it from your device. Just browse your phone's Windows directory and copy NotificationManager.dll.XXXX.MUI file on your PC
The .XXXX.MUI part is actually the number of your language. For instance in my case I needed the NotificationManager.dll.0408.MUI which is the GREEK MUI file.
1.
Copy the MUI file on a short path on your PC, something like C:\Temp\MUI\
2.
Extract the MUI unSigner-Signer on the same path
3.
Run the MUI unsigner to unsign your MUI file
4.
Use the resource editor to edit the MUI file. Depending on the case you may need to add the string, or just edit it. We need to fill the string numbered 176.
If the string exists and it's empty just edit it to fill in the string of your desire. If it doesn't exists then create a new string and pay attention on the LANGUAGE selection upon the new string creation menu. It should be the same language as the rest strings on your file. Keep in mind that ALL resource editors will add 16 string in a row. That's normal, and it doesn't matter. Just use the create string command until you have a "176" value that you can edit. Once you edit the "176" String to say whatever you want it to say, save the file and exit Resource editor.
5.
Use MUI signer to sign your file
6.
Copy the modified MUI file somewhere on your device. Don't try to copy it directly on windows directory. The file is marked as "system" and windows won't let you overwrite it.
7.
Once you have copied the modified file on your device, use an application like Total Commander to do 2 tasks:
a. Backup the original file (by copying it somewhere) and
b. Replace the original file with the modified one.
8. Soft Reset your device and everything should be ok now!
PS:
By no way this is a complete guide on how to do it. It's just what I recall from the process I followed some time ago in order to do it myself.
Directions on how to use MUI unsigner-Signer you'll find on the thread that you'll get it.
PS2:
Be safe: KEEP A BACKUP OF YOUR ORIGINAL FILE FIRST!!!
PS3:
Have fun. If someone needs the Greek Translated MUI file PM me. I have also posted it on the ENM thread back at the time I created it...
EDIT: Here's the link of the Greek MUI file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4039484&postcount=125

I Don't know about azerty keyboard layout, cause i'm using qwerty .
But u can change the key characters of physical keyboard layout on system/csc/Your region code(for spain it's PHE)/system/usr/keychars/bcm_keypad_v2.kcm.
edit it and change it using your virtual keyboard. OR you can use ICS bcm_keypad_v2.kcm from old rom (if you have your backup).
That's it. You will get your old layout keyboard and will fix forever.

Of course you should. How can you edit your system without Root? Just edit the key i mention above. Before that click on screen keypad on the "language and input setting". And then just take look for chars that you think miss, then fix it using your virtual keyboard.
You can use root explorer to do that.
Hope this will help you. Press thanks if yes.
Solution
You can replace original bcm_keypad_v2.kl with the file you find at link http://ge.tt/4nhbXzg/v/0?c
You can push it into windows file manager and the use for example Root Explorer (yes, root before your phone) to copy it to system>usr>keylayout
The button to access to chatON don't run. If you want set it, before open the file and replace CUST1 with CHATON.

small tutorial to change galaxy chat b5330 keyboard layout from spanish to english or other
so
you have customer customization files, that means folder /system/csc
here you can find all keyboard layouts
CPW folder contains custumization data for britain
for other layouts check it yourself
in PHE are the spanish
now you can:
a:
delete from PHE keylayout and keychars folder contents and /system/usr/keylayout and keychar files will be active
b:
move keylayout and keychars folder contents from CPW(or your layout) to PHE folder
it works... after reboot
at least for me
and you can play with the keyboard layout now as described in other tutorials, you can simulate DPAD too, if you make one key CTRL or META, but it's not working in many apps, on launcher i can navigate
and you can add some buttons to wake up device, not to kill power key

hi
you can try to install a firmware from LUXEMBOURG
i had the same problem so i have downloaded this firmware from sammobile
My Method
I had the same problem with the keyboard, anda after a few attempts I finally bring it back to a good configuration.
1-. Root the phone of course
2-. Download a file manager and go to system/csc
3-. Here we find the hole stuff from the available countries in phone's configuration. It's important to know which is the sale code of our firmware (For example, my firmware's code is ITV, and is from Italy)
4-. Now we have to look for the correct file for our keyboard to work properly. The best solution is know the sale code of our language (For example, I have a spanish keyboard, and the sale code of spain is the Phone House España PHE).
5-. Now that we know the sale code, we go to system/csc/XXX(Sale Code)/system/usr/keychars, where we can find a file called "bcm_keypad_v2.kcm". This is the supposed correct file for our keyboard. If we dont trust, we can open it as a text file and edit with a text editor. If chracters match with sysmbols inside the file, that means that it is the correct file.
6-. We copy bcm_keypad_v2.kcm and go back right to system/csc. Now we look for the sale code of the firmware that we have flashed (ITV, in my case) and go to system/csc/YYY(Sale Code)/system/usr/keychars, and replaced the file there with the other one that we copied before.
7-. Finally, go to system/usr/keychars and there again we replaced the bcm_keypad_v2.kcm file there with the other one that copied before.
8-. Now reboot and try typing if the keyboard works right or continue working wrong. At least for me works :laugh:
My theory is that when we flash a rom, the country from where it comes their csc files are taken to system, and we have to replace both keyboard file in the csc repository and keyboard file in the current system.
I hope this will help you :good: Good luck!

This fixed my wrong keyboard layout and the shortcuts buttons.
Now only one issue still remains for me..
The "Sym" button used to switch my keyboard language but now pops up the symbols window.
This way I need to have the on-screen keyboard enabled in order to switch through languages.
Any idea which button mapping I should change to enable language switching on the "Sym" button?
I have root access so I only need to know which file and button mapping option I should change to fix this.
I have a problem with my A850+ (i think, the same problem appear on A850 too).
Incoming calls - contact name does not appear (appear only telephone number - the number is stored in the phone book in international format +386 xx xxx xxx).
I know there is a problem by checking the numbers (match=8 ; this is the correct setting for my case).
Where exactly do I find this setting? Which file I need to change?
I found a solution. The phone must have root access. With ROOT EXPLORER you have to find the file "System / build.prop". This file you have to open in text editor. In this file you have to add the following text: "ro.phone.min_match = 8". Then you have to save this file and reboot the phone.
In this case, the dialer will compare the last 8 digits and will display contact me.

That procedure works in any country? One other question, what is the best rom for my Lenovo A850+ at this moment?
How it looks (your phone number) in the international format? How many digits it contains?

The code for my country is +351, the cellphone number itself have 9 digits...
So it looks something like +351 xxx xxx xxx (x = my number)
In your case you have to add the following text:
"ro.phone.min_match = 9" (without " ")
Then you have to save this file and reboot the phone
P.S.
See the instructions in # 2
