Russian == sucks
You'd better use english ROM and localize only the keyboard with LEng or some other tool.

Seems you are new here , dont know who is Mamaich , better look what his post and how he help people in here , maybe you had no ideal how made AKU3.2 rom ,and why everyone made any rom always said thanks Mamaich,I think you better said sorry to him,they are no any RUS rom for Uni in the world but I knew Mamaich can make it , but why he said sucks ? I tell you why because cant find VGA RUS mui special in some of program , if you can find it than said sucks for him or me otherwide sucks is you AXP understand.
PS.Mamaich lived in RUS

Russian interface sucks for 4 reasons.
1. Awful translation. Sometimes you need to translate a phrase back to English just to understand what it should mean. I call it "русЕфЕкация".
2. Localized interfaces look ugly - lines don't fit dialogs, font problems, etc.
3. Localized ROMs appear later than english, so you have to use obsolete OSes.
4. Localizations are made by Quarta and similar companies who do them via reverse engineering ROMs (extracting & translating resources, patching hardcoded strings, editing registry etc - I know what I'm talking about). In most cases this is done incorrectly, and such ROMs are unstable.
The best thing you can do - is to localize only the on-screen/hardware keyboard and select Russian regional settings. In this case you'll get a stable OS and an ability to use Russian.
Attached one screenshot (this is a russian version of Windows desktop search downloaded from microsoft site).

But there are already many ROMs have Chinese interface.The mui files and some dll files were all translated into Chinese.
However,I still love the English interface.What I did was only to replace wince.nls with a Chinese one, remove all the English inputs and SmartDialer,and replace the ttf file with Chinese file,also edit registry.Without mamaich,we can never do this.

Probably, I should apologize. My English not so is good, and I have understood a phrase literally - that Russia (instead of the Russian interface) - sucks. With your statements I absolutely agree. Itself and I do.

Hei thanks, but the WM5LangPack-RUS.zip I cant download.
Is it possible new uploading? Thanks.
Greets Danny.

here ...

Thanks a lot.
Happy new year.
Greets Daniel.

I think everything is OK right now. Russian fonts are already present in every ROM - either Helmi's or Ivan's or Jwrightmcps's. And there are a lot of russian keyboards to choose from. So everyone can use Mobile Word or smth to edit russian docs.
And it's not too difficult to remember some menu items in English even if the user doesn't know English.
And, sure, OS developers can not make english applications to run in russian.
So I don't see a problem.

[release] Schap's WM6 Pro 3.57a-CCS (with CHT/CHS/JPN support)

Hi all,
This is a ROM based on Schap's ROM with additional chinese/japanese support, it is still an english based rom but is capable to display chinese and japanese, I also added in the Tao's 10 Buttons Kaiser CommManager and some useful programs. However, the Advanced Configurator is not working because of the new commmanager.
Features:
* Everything from original ROM
* Default theme changed to HTC black theme
* Included Tao's 10 buttons Kaiser Comm Manager
* Patched wince.nls to support Chinese/Japanese/Korean (Korean will need extra fonts)
* mingliu.ac3 font for Chinese/Japanese display
* G4 SIP Changer for SIP configuration.
* GSFinder+ v1.04 for Explorer replacement
* ClearTemp v0.9.3
* PIM Backup v2.5.0.0
* HTC Network Wizard (apparently I found it not working after I upload this ROM , I will fix it up in the Schap's new upcoming ROM, sorry )
* Removed Automatic operator settings configuration, SuperBright (VJLumosIII), FieldTest 1.57
* Move VoIP Setting & Advanced Configuration Tools from Ext ROM to main ROM
credit goes to original Authors
for my reference only: Benchmark
anyway.. give it a try
http://www.sharebig.com/share.php?id=s12htpsovnrPtfYyu

Some questions:
-The most important:
* If I use for Japanese, what is the default, Hiragana or Romanji input? What is the default SIP?
-Other:
* Is it based on Schap's normal or lite one?
* How is the way to chose between CHT/CHS/JPN?
Thanks!
PS: Ask for help; I already have two doubts about Japanese support that maybe you van help me:
1º)I have Japanese I/O enabled, with "Roma/Kana" SIP by default (via SIP change of Sheult). But when I open a program, always "hiragana" write is default one, and I need to change to "romanji" (normal English input); but no I idea how to do it (><)
That isn't put "Keyboard" SIP for english input; it's Japanese input, but romanji by default. I hope I explain myself.
2º)Is there any way to make Pocket IE to work with Yahoo! Keitai (brose the Web pages of Yahoo! Keitai)

Keyboardlayout
Hi
how can I change the Keyboardlayout from English to German because I have German hardware?
Thanks

ist the final relase or is it stell beta

Great work!! why not reupload the HTC Network Wizard fixed??
BTW, any chance to use VP3G's V3.0 for CHT support??

Do you mean this rom support both Traditional and Simplified Chinese when using some ebook reader such as isilo, etc? Thanks.

sesaru:
first of all, it does not contain any language specific SIP, therefore you can install the one you preferred... The ROM is based on the normal version, you dont have to switch in between chinese/japanese as the GUI is in English but support read/write in chinese/japanese.
in addition..
1. for the SIP problem, try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271008 , not sure if it works or not... just give it a try
2. as for the Yahoo! Keitai, I have no idea on how to access it, I tried to search on Google but there is no any information about how to connect it.. so..
Mark_XDA:
Originally, the application Advanced Configuration Tools that comes with the ROM has the ability to change it for you, however, since I change the Comm Manager to the Kaiser looks, the program crashes everytime when we start it, so the only way to change it is to edit Registry manually...
you can find the answer in this page
moshmoshkelah:
There is no final or beta, Schap's ROM is final, but I will make a new one if a new ROM I like is released.
Penske MB:
I'm too lazy to pack another one... especially when my internet connection is only 1.5m/256... you know..
VP3G? if you want I can quickly cook one for you, let me know which version you want (BBC or official)...
yamchung:
Oh well, I didnt really try to read an ebook... but to browse CHT (big5) and CHS (gb2312) websites are fine, so as long as the ebook program allow you to change encoding, it should be fine.

I can livw with any offical or BBC. My company just gave me a BB phone, so...
thanks in advance.

Wisbar Font
When I use wisbar version 2.8, the font on the start menu and the bottom soft button seems to small. Any advices please?
(For normal (non-wisbar) start menu, the font is ok.)
Thanks.

Penske MB:
BBC version... but I don't know if it still works after I repack it
chris_khho:
Sorry I afraid I'm not able to answer this question to you as well , you can try to edit the theme file or edit your registry see if that help:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls]
"SystemLCID"=dword:00000404
change it to:
"SystemLCID"=dword:00000409
however, as for the D810 problem, what you can do is get a ROM you like in the Trinity section and use the chinese language pack available here

Do you mind to explain how you add the chinese support to the ROM file? which kitchen are you using? and where did you find the win.nls file?

rshen:
I dont use any of the kitchen, I tried bepe's kitchen before however the CHT one didnt work well, so I decided to use cooked ROM and reheat again
all I do is,
1. use NBHextract to extract .nb from .nbh
2. use NBDump.bat to dump .nb file into a folder
3. put mingliu.ac3 and replace wince.nls into the folder
4. use koch's tools to edit default.hv / user.hv (registry)
5. use NBBuild.bat to build .nb file
6. use koch's tools to build from .nb file to .nbh file
that's all

Schap's WM6 Pro 3.54b seems like a mature ROM, and maybe a great idea to do a CHT support

Hi Rick,
2 small issue might need your help:
1. the Chinese music title will not display correctly while setting region to (Enlish United States), and I have to set to Taiwan or HK to display coeectly. But if I set region to Taiwan, the phone number will not display the way I wanted. For example: The regular view of any incoming call display as: (626) 555-7777, and it will only display as: 6265557777. No "()".
2. The phone address book does not display right on my Mercedes. The old version will shows address book and call history.
See if you can help out. This is an issue with all ROM with CHTsupport

any update?

Trinity Simplified Chinese Version WM5 or WM6 Roms

Hi, all guys,
I have checked this site for a long time to find a Simplified Chinese version ROM. But I'm disppointed every time I logged in.
Is there any one have same idea with me? Same wish for a Simplified Chinese version ROM as me?
Is there any one have done that or work on this? Oh is there any one can provide the procedure and material dumps for this project?
Regards
Frank Bing

I'd like 2 help.
as i know, the only thing we need 2 do is adding mui files into the current rom. then we have it!
but english rom runs faster, so install CE-Star on your device will be a better idea.

Pure Chinese
Basically I agree with you! But when you want to do it you may met lots of problems.
The big challenges is you have to find all the files related with Chinese, include so files support IMEs and also some registries.
And the problem with CE-star is you can not search you contact list by Pingyin sequential. And also CE-start does not suport Pen, Brush Pen stensil.
Anyway thanks. If I have time and don't care about cost, I should do it myself. And the file list which support SC can be get by compare the dump of SC and TC of other models of HTC phone like dopod830 or cht9000.
Regards
Frank Bing

hi there
if u wanna search your contact list by chinese, check this out.
PS: after install the pocketcm, place lang.ini in the same directory. run pocketcm, then u will find everything in chinese.

After installed YaHei cab, the system displays Chinese very well.
But in the regional settings, there is no such choise for Chinese. Besides, in the IE, there is no Chinese encoding, so the chinese words cann't be read in IE.
What I want is the English interface + Chinese support, so if the problems i mentioned above can be solved, it will be great to me.

Notice: for trinity all the cooked wm6 rom only!!!!!Simplfied Chinese.
this cab will install a font and a wince.nls file, which makes your chinese contact index in ABC and regional settings including P.R.China. that means you can view chinese website.
the wince.nls is special, only works with hermes and trinity wm6, if you install it into other mobile handset, not too bad but the live messenger will fail.
i made it by myself,and i am sure it will working great.
sorry i have trouble uploading files. it is smaller then limitation,but
Chinese_Plus_P3600.zip:
Upload of file failed.
everytime.

And every time I reset the phone, I got an error message: system does not support your current service provider(46000), you have get update information from device manufacturer. Do you want to select other service provider?
The message is in TC which I translate into English? and 46000 is stand for China Mobile. When I try to select, I can not find the it in the standard list.
Anyway, The phone can be used. But I feel uncomfortable with this non-sense error message.
Is there any way which I can add that record in?

The bug with device not waking up after standby is back in this version - I've hard reset my device with the same ROM the version 2/3 worked on and it made it die... (rip)
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Heb3.zip version and it worked just fine.
did any of you succeed in making any java emulator work with this hebrew version? doesn't work for me...

i tried this cabs
it doesn't work, it asks to register the version and Hebrew is left to right
i installed first the certificate and then the main cab
i tried the cabs on abusalsa v.27 rom
regards
edward

worked for me but ill recook it 4u and check whats wrong..
its wierd cause i just added the control didnt really change much of it. meanwhile you can use the previous version with the hebcontrol.exe..ANYWAYS im trying to port wm6 hebrew from asus which will work much much better cause this one is based on wm5 .. coming soon..

Thank you so much!
Seriously man... you should put up a donation method. I'd be happy to donate to show appreciation.
I can't wait for the new version... the one based on your old tytn orange rom keeps me from using opera mini..

No need for java anymore - the new skyfire with the local US phone requirement removed KICKS A$$! take your time.... lol

your gratitude is more than enough.. glad u solved the java issue, skyfire is SHIBBY everything works on that little devil..

East Asian Character Support (Chinese & Japanese characters)

I'm looking for some support on how to enable East Asian character support, chinese and japanese characters on the TP2.
When I receive messages via email, they're coming up as squares or gibberish. The stock ROM I had initially had support for the characters, but most of the new ROMs I've tried/flashed don't.
Is there a cab or some way to enable encoding for East Asian characters so the phone can read/render/en/decode them properly?
Cheers

You want Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese support?
Some tp2 comes tweaked by htc to include chinese support on WWE ROM, but since yours doesn't, try:
1. CE-Star suite: http://www.mobem.com/products/CE-Star.php
2. Studio Kuma: http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=support (no Simplified Chinese - Traditional Chinese + Japanese support only)

Thanks for that Mesquire. My stock ROM had support for Chinese, but the baked ROMs that the chefs are releasing don't. And I'm not sure what is needed for them to include to make it work, as I was told to give them what was needed and they'll add it.
I'm after simplified Chinese + Jap, so I'll try CE-Star. Thanks =)
Edit: geh, CE-Star isn't free >.>
Does anyone know what tweak/cab is needed/used by HTC to support Chinese/Jap characters in ROMs?

i've done this and the ce-star menu i get seems to lead to nowhere

DON'T use Ce-star.
The character will be very small and ugly.
You are welcome to use my post.

I have the paid version of 2.8 R3c installed, which installed through Windows. The paid version should be the same as Leies version (but he has modified the fonts support)
character recognition, correct?

English version Windows Mobile (like older Windows versions) by default has no East Asian support, so "enablers" like CE-Star adds support for these languages.

Depends on which type of Chinese characters encoding you require. If you want Traditional Chinese, as used by Taiwan and Hongkong, then install BIG5. If you need Simplified Chinese support as used by China, Singapore and others, install GBKC

NO!!!
#1 Choose one of the system cab (not both):
a) System Big5C.cab or b) System GBKC.cab
when prompt to reset, do NOT reset
#2 Install the cab for input method(s) you require
#3 Start -> Programs -> All Programs > Install
#4 Reset when prompt
Since you have not installed it correctly, I suggest you uninstall it and start again.

You really should thank Leies

thank you for answering all my questions mesquire,
i suppose i installed it incorrectly, i'm glad i used my mogul and not my new TP2 because it completely jacked up the mogul...i had to hard reset.
i may attempt again on the mogul or look elsewhere...what i really need is touchscreen character recognition
