[solved] How to remove partial Chinese? - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
Just installed KangVIP ROM which is really awesome.
But I have a small thing, maybe not ROM related:
Some is in Chinese.
At first, the lockscreen. "swipe to unlock" and the year of date is in Chinese. Additionally the magazine description (attachment).
Then there is something in Chinese in the notification bar when I swipe down.
Any idea how to remove it?
I already had it with vanilla ROM, so I think another wipe won't help.
Many thanks in advance!

K Settings / Lockscreen and desktop settings / switch off the Lunar stuff.
K Settings / Notification settings / switch off Lunar stuff.
If any Chinese lockscreen wallpapers during wake still exist: delete these when they show up (pull up / delete).

Perfect!
That helped! Many thanks!

Hi Pfeffernuss,
Do you mean to tell us that we should delete the picture ?

Yes, some wallpapers contain Chinese descriptions. Deleting these (usually one is enough) will/should remove the Chinese texts on the lockscreen.
You can simply add wallpapers you like yourself anyway :good:

Ok but if you like the picture with chinese texts and don't want to remove it, you can edit exif data in picture's file and remove chinese texts

True, although this was the easier solution without having to explain what Exif is and how to edit that

well, the Chinese year in every date was more annoying
...or whatever it was.

a really nice idea! good work.
but would it be possible to create a seperate SMS/MMS app?
the installation-process would be less complicated.

Why you want to have separate apps?
It's just like a stock message app, but with moddify stuff.
You can receive sms/mms in this one app and you have just to replace one file and change perrmision.
best regards!

yes, i know. but some users do not have a rooted phone. that's why i suggested it.
just tried your work. really good! nice and easy to use and still runs smooth like butter.
one question though: is it possible to remove the avatars in the conversation list? i do not have any pictures so i do not use this feature...

You are talking about turn off showed avatars in window where you write a message to somebody?
If yes go to message>menu>settings>mms theme settings>messaging style > "SHOW CONTACT AVATAR", tick off
ok this seems great, but how is it diff than the one in cm 10.1/sourcery/aokp/and other roms?

I'm a flashoholic of new rom and I first saw this app in oen rom so I decided to extracted the app and shere with You.
I don't see anywhere a lot of options in settings like in this app.
I've tried a AOKP cm10 rom, but I didn't see mms app like this.
Is it possible to keep the lines between sms messages like in the default messages? I tried all the bubble frame options, but none of them is just as simple line to keep the messages seperated.
Very nice modifications, thanks! :good:
Could you add a few more things to it? Like:
- Increase the maximum lines of the textfield from 3 lines to something higher, so we can see more lines of the text we are currently writing without scrolling around that much. Would be nice if it was possible to change the number of those lines in the settings.
- Just a little "beauty" issue: When using the "bubble arrow side" setting, is it possible that the peak of the bubble is on top, so it comes from the avatar instead of being all the way down at the bottom, which is kinda "unlucky" when having longer messages (like 2+ sms messages sent as one...for example a message with like 400 characters for example)?

I can't edit it, becouse I've just share this app to You, sorry.
Help from me:
#1 If You want to see more lines of text during You write something I think You have just to decrease the size of font in mms.apk. I don't remmember if this option is include in mms.apk options, but You can use this : Xposed modifications framework installer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
and then download and install this :http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/microdownloads/xposed-app-settings.5/viewfile
Short download linkhttp://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/microdownloads/app-settings.5/download by this You can manually change a options invidualy to each apk, include options to change size of font.
For this moment I don't know other solution.
#2 What DPI you have? I have 160 and all are beauty for me. ;]
If You want check this: MMS.apk from AOKP JB-MR1 build 6
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/38330-422-inverted-mms-with-outlines-updated-32713/ download apk and remember to change name to MMS.apk
Thank you
OP, thank you, thank you so much for posting this. I have been looking for something like this for forever, if I could sell you my soul.. I would!
Hi,
I'm running a modified version of JB 4.1.2 for a Wiko phone, and I can't get this app to work.
I kinda tried everything, and I always got that the app "has stopped". I also tried with the stock app from cyanogen 10.1, same result.
Could give me a hand on what to do to make it work ?
thx

Have You give all correct permission? Rw-r-r?
If not , It's seems to be a incompatible rom with apk. I don't really remember if it's working with 4.1.2,because for a long time I use 4.2.x. cm 10.1 rom from which one You want to take a mms.apk is for sure a incompatible apk, it is just for 4.2.x.
I love your sms app, just missing chathead mod and all will be perfect
Thank you
I love this apk. But why am I getting forced close? I changed permissions.
Freaking awesome! Nice find! Works like a charm.

Change the cover to a new one and remove the stock one and it will no longer be in Chinese. If that doesn't work, change the theme in Themes to something like the Brightness theme.

LOL ! This actually worked !
Thanks man !
I've switched to "Brightness" theme, and then went back to the default one, and it was in English, the important part were to answer the dialog "Keep magazine unlock" with "Discard".

Now you can enable the Magazine Unlock again and change the cover to one of your photos or wallpapers and it won't have Chinese writing anymore. I actually like the Magazine Unlock as you can pick a bunch of different backgrounds to display each time you unlock the screen.
I have the magazine with the stock photos in it. I am actually keeping that for a while because I think that the pictures are just BEAUTIFUL!

After I changed Themes a few times (I have over 200 loaded) I tried to go back to the "Golden Bloom (magazine)" theme, now I no longer have the Magazine Lock Screen feature that was there with the rotating lock screen pics (I like that). I looked with esfile explorer and the folder is there with the pics, I can see the folder in gallery as well, but it's not working.
Any help?

Starred contacts in DnD

On 5.1.7 with Google dialer but cannot selected managed favorites in DnD menu? Was working under 5.1.5 which is the last time I checked?
Anybody else
I don't understand. Are you saying that you can't manage your favorites contacts in DnD menu, or that you can't make DnD ring for your favorites contacts ?
In first case, I didn't seen such an option in 5.1.5/6/7
Second case : it's working ont 5.1.7, without any issue here.

Oh. OK. I'm on 5.1.7, and I've this Manage favourite contacts menu working without issue.
In french, but the menu is here. And give me the possibility to remove a favourite, or add another.

Whatsapp doesn't show the contacts - chinese ROM

Hi. I have an issue with Whatsapp. It has all the permission s available, so does google contacts. Ut for some reason the chats in what's app shows just numbers, not contact says..anybody came across the fix?
It's permissions do make sure you've set EVERYTHING there's stuff like Modify And Create Contacts and other similar ones this depends on
To fix manually in the meantime just go to the main screen, go to send a new message, then the three dots & Refresh
Go to settings - Accounts & Sync - Whatsapp - More - Sync now
That seems to work

That was done. Refreshing it did 5he trick. Thanks guys.
Cool!
If it persists after a reboot check permissions again (this gets very boring on the Chinese rom) but refreshing always brought it back for me.
Enjoy
The easiest way to fix this is go to privacy setting and look at behaviour of the apps, specially the permissions that WhatsApp tried to get and was restricted, or returned blank. Then set that permission to allow always.

Thing is, the fix is not permanent, I need to do it every few minutes. That's ridiculous
Why, I fixed mine once and it has never gone back. Have you checked all permissions, network restrictions, notification and battery settings and then go to compose a message, press on the 3 dots and refresh. You must be missing one of these things. Get yourself on to the EU ROM, you don't get this trouble. Good luck, you will crack it.

The best way to do all this is not to look individually but search "battery" or "permissions" in settings. The layout isn't always great so I'd recommend searching for words instead of just scrolling through

Many thanks for this. I picked up a transparent Mi 10 Ultra a week or so ago and had this issue after flashing the Xiaomi.eu stable ROM. I could refresh the contacts within the app, but it would only stick for ten minutes or so. So far these settings have stuck.....
