unwanted language change - General Questions and Answers

I am using Android 5.1 on my phone.
I am at present in Japan and use a japanese simcard while here.
Everytime I switch the phone on, the language which had been set to english, has automatically been changed to Japanese.
I thik, I have checked all the settings, but after changing back to english, there seems to be no option to "save" the setting....
This question has been asked many years ago, without receiving an answer, does anyone in the meantime has a solution for this real nuisance?
Thanks

What phone are you using?

VK800X
It is not the phone, it is the simcard that does it, and it is Android 5.1 that allows it.
I am asking how to save and SECURE the settings in Android 5.1.

Automatically add number after call

Hey Guys,
I have a simple question (I think), but can't seem to find the answer...
After calling an unknown number normally my phone asks me if I want to save that number to my contacts. Today however, I wasn't thinking and accidentally clicked "Don't ask me this again" in staid of the "yes" button.
I would like to switch that option back on, but I can't seem to find the option... I've searched in my phone settings, Google and the XDA-Forum.
I'm kinda PPC noobish, so I don't know if this is a standard WM6.1 function or if this is a function backed into the ROM I flashed onto my HTC-Touch (the ShadoW 2.0 ROM by Cloudyfa (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=363637)).
It's a small thing, but something I find useful to use so I hope someone can give me the answer Thanks in advance!
Anyone?
Can anyone tell me how to do this? I mean, if I can switch it off, there must be a way to switch it back on...

[Q] cant import sim contacts

hello
im a new member here(old watcher xD), and this is my first post, i would hate to make it about asking for help instead of saying hi but im having this problem/s for a while now and its really getting on my nerves, (please excuse my mistakes since english is not my first language)
here is the story:
i bought at&t locked atrix 2 (GSM), bought unlock code and did long research for the last couple of days about the whole android OS roms (IOS user )
and im using the phone now (unlocked) with our carrier Etisalat and it works great but my problems are as follows:
1- it always connect to 4g which i think is consuming more battery and sometimes the coverage is weak so i wish to turn it to 2g or at least 3g if 2g not possible (tried to change it from settings but the option is grayed and also downloaded apps and widgets and still the same)
2-whenever i reboot the phone or close it and then open it, i get a notification that says: "sim card full, delete messages to free space"(every single time), and i have no messages at all (in the sim and outside the sim) and i only have 52 contacts in the sim, which leads us to my third problem
3- i have contacts in the sim but i cant import them because accoring to the phone "there is no contacts on your sim card", and the funny part is i can access them from the same phone thru an app called SIM Toolkit (not sure but i think it comes embedded inside the sim) but the app does not import them or make me copy them, just watch them and if i want i can write them on paper xD, and also it show that the sim can contain 2000 name
200 email
200 number
all of them are empty except the names field which has 52 name.
by the way those three problems have traveled with me thru the roms xD
stock, supercharged, supercharged v2, stock deoxed, and finally victory(the best ) so i dont think its a problem with the roms.
also i tried to leave the AT&T bloatware but nothing changed.
i hope i can find the solution/s with you guys & sorry for the long paragraph.
Bump
up, perhaps someone would know something useful.
I had the same problem with the phone not reading the contacts on the sim card. What I did was install a free app call Sim Contacts from google play. I selected all the contacts and from the app setting, selected batch operation to "batch copy to phone contacts" However if you reset the data on your phone, it needs to be done again. I hope this help.
Thanks ))
thanks for the help, and i did try to use several programs (yours included)but non worked.
anyway i tried to take the sim and use it on my old nokia phone and after couple tries it finally showed up that there is messages in the sim and i deleted the hell out of them xD and when i returned the sim, the phone never showed up that message again and not only that but it also made the contacts visible to the phone and i could import them and everything worked out )))
however there is still the first problem not solved yet and any help would be truly appreciated ?
why is the choice of changing the network type (4g,3g,2g) greyed out ?
finally solved all the problems
it really saddens me that no one tried to help me except one (has my sincere gratitude) and i finally found a solution to my problem with changing the network type, the sad thing is that no one helped me out (yep im b!#@%ing about it), the good or even funny thing is that i found the solution here in the forums by other XDA members (after 4 hours or searching), and im posting this now because someone else might be needing help regarding this subject:

[Resolved] Fujitsu Arows x F-02E

Hello everyone and hope to find a solution to this problem that I caused myself.
A couple of days ago I came to buy a mobile for eBay, with very good features but that only brought two languages ​​English and Japanese, after much research weno to rotearlo, I got you can rotear and is very easy, the question was to use a root desinstador to remove applications in Japanese, that is the question I deleted such that a Mobil has been almost useless, it lights have wifi but no network are not phone applications or contact, it says nothing about the SIM requests and configuration pin or setin gives many fs if it enters network.
Theirs would reinstall the official ROM but I can not find it, if I try to update it does not detect wifi Trough docomo network, tb I watched the efs folder and is not, and can not think of more, I made a backup with titanium backup but not because reason gives me error and not installed, when I made this copy option worked even though I had uninstalled call phone icons and the calendar.
Another thing is that now I have the baseband because I don not known or something.
If you also have looked but I see nothing, I found and downloaded this F02E_F0001_V16R46A.tar.gz Trado
I think it's the uncompressed original rom but remains weighs 900mg. tar and not how to install it.
In conclusion let a disaster, so I do not know what to do with, you tell me greetings can be solved

No english keyboard before entering system. (S7 edge, android nougat firmware update)

Hello,
I just finished updating my S7 edge (SM-G935F) to android Nougat using Odin.3.12.3. The installation went fine up until the point I had to enter my password to gain access to the system(i.e The screen you get before your phone displays the lock animation).Instead of phone displaying the english language, it displays just Greek (I installed the greek firmware of nougat).Although there is an ABC icon on the bottom left corner of the keyboard ,the keyboard remains in greek language even after I press it.I used a wired keyboard and the otg adapter that came with the phone and I was able to type my password and gain access to my phone.Then I added the english keyboard and english language.The keyboard works fine inside the system and Im able to switch between english and greek.But the problem remains when I restart the phone and try to enter the system.Is there a solution to this problem? Can I add the language some way or should I install the nougat firmware from another country (for example the uk one)?
Thank you.

Oukitel WP15

Hi all
A few months ago I bought a OUKITEL WP15 5G. All was fine until it got an update. Initially it was only the wi-fi hotspot function that was unstable. Later it started having trouble with the up/down buttons not responding in certain apps.
One day it kicked over to Arabic and refused to go back to English. I was able to force it to English by deleting keyboard languages, but every time the phone was restarted it went back to Arabic.
I decided to do a factory reset. After that I have only 3G phone function and no mobile data. I have downloaded ROM from manufacturer site, but that didn't work. I have tried to contact manufacturer, with even less success.
Does anyone have a working ROM, instructions, ideas or do I just go straight for the paperweight function ...??
Thanks
PJ
