Htc makes only one European ROM at the time. There is four main languages for ex. English, Spanish, French...
In Europe are many other languages. If Htc does not want to make ROM for those languages, it could make T9 dictonary and Windows Virtual Keyboard in any case.
Many people understand English so well, that they do not need entire ROM translated into their language, but they need keyboard and T9 dictonary for writing their mother language.
Now Internet are full of different instruction, how to put T9 in action. Many of those are for the phones, which does not fit to Htc Touch HD.
I hope, that Htc could make language packs for different languages in Europe and serve the customers in this way better.

There are at least 15 languages available for your T9.
HTC serves you pretty well, don't you think?

On www.htc.com/support is only one ROM, and that is WWE. I can not see any other. I found on xda-developers -site one Finnish ROM and downloaded it. There were no Finnish word. Finnish was one of the languages, but I could not see any work with it.
Where are the 15 ROMs?
I had Samsung Omnia for a short time ago, and when Samsung had made Finnish ROM, it was really Finnish. Windows mobile had translated into Finnish. Windows Virtual Keyboard was with ä, å and ö and T9 worked well.
I have had many HTC - phones. Now I have three: Artemis, Iolite and HD.
I am looking forward to have T9 Finnish and Windows Virtual Keyboard with ä, å and ö.
I didn't say there were 15 ROM's availabe, but there are at least that many languages for the T9.
Look for '14 language T9 cab' and you will find an installer to enable extra languages for your T9.

Who has made it? Perhaps not Htc? I have tested that file, but T9 dictionary did not work. T9 remembers only the word, what I have written.

HTC did not make the cab-file, that is true.
But the dictionaries used by T9 are made by Microsoft or HTC.
I had to test several cab-files to before I got Dutch to work.
You'll have to try some more cab-files or search the forum some more.
Good luck.
in "defense" to matti i must say that (dont ask me how, maybe another row of keys?) imho some language-specific characters (eg ä ö for finns/swedes, è à ò ù etc for us italians) should be included in a specific keyboard layout. i dont use t9 as i find more a time waster than anything, but reaching the special characters by longpressing a key waiting x secs sliding to the desired one is just another time waster.

You should install FingerKeyboard then.
It allows you to set the delay before the special characters appears, it supports any layout you want, user-specified text (like smileys and so), ...

Hi, and first of all, as I said in a previous thread, thanks for this marvelous release !
I'm french and if I can work in english, it is more comfortable for me to use a frech interface So, does someone want to work on a french release ? My contribution can be the translation for all texts you would submit.
Anyone interested ?
+1
Hi,
I agree, I love WM6, english doesn't bother me nevertheless a french version would be cool.
I use lvsw's and it works great with SFR in France (radio 1.35.00.11 catches UMTS nicely, the voicemail icon works etc...)
Can someone estimate the time it would take to cover all files to translate ?
Would be quite interested too. Having to wait for the official release of WM5 (to have a security backup) or even the WM6 French edition (apparently Q2 2007 as for HTC France) is too bothersome
But I think translating everything would be also a pain in the a..please wait 2 seconds for an uncompressed image
I made a small cab which at least change the input settings and spell check into french. The ROM stays in English of course.

Virtual keyboard layout dll
I've seen that virtual keyboard layout is based on two dlls... Does someone have those ?
French Kbd Layout
Hi all,
Cool that this thread leveraged some interest
Based on everyday use of both french and english layout, I think it could be smart to create an hybrid layout, mix of azerty and qwerty, ie :
- Use azerty 1st row accents but invert shift behavior to have digits without shift
- same thing for commonly used characters like @ ' to also get them without shifting (1 click instead of 2)
What do you think ?
I've got my HTC Touch pro2 early, by not waiting for Norwegian release date (4 july).
The touchflo is english, and I like it that way.
The keyboard layout does not include norwegain "æøå" letters.
The spellcheck/XT9 lists I already have are: English, French, German, Italian and Spanish.
I would like to have "Norwegian"
where are the settings/files i need to add, in order to fix this ?

Might be worth having a look in the blackstone forum for their language packs and just try it on the TouchPro2, should work in theory.
I tried to change my hw keyboard layout and I have been able to have "è" and "ù", no way to have "ì", "ò", "à": keys simply do not work at all...
As far as software keyboard is concerned, I believe that you should change sip.
nicelad_uk : thanks - I assume you mean this post ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3304868&postcount=5
I installed Norwegian language, and it works becuase it's auto-selected, but does not show in the language selection list so after choosing English, I must reinstall it if I want it back.
It's a spellcheck and XT9 list, it does not influence the soft-keyboard layout, or the kayboards special characters list.

I mean to change software keyboard , using something like EZinput 2.0 or similar
Solution for Norwegianhardware Keyboard on HTC Touch Pro2 is here:

It's best to Get in there early as a Moderation Team.
For now it's best to keep These kind of Using Questions in the General Forum.
Hi all, I've been digging in xda-developers for some time for a software to input Chinese characters, let it be in SMS, or even composing emails in WWE rom.
So far I learned that Droid can only read but cannot write.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469199 this link here is either dead or no people know the answer.
I even tried the msjh.cab but I don't know how to input in sms.
So I brought this here, maybe anyone can show me something?
do you want to input Chinese by pinyin or strike? also, do you want to input simplified or complicated Chinese? I have a few software like A4, PlumSIP6_1008 for you which are for Chinese simplied.
finally there's reply
I need pinyin simplified input. But so far I haven't see anything that can input Chinese Characters in eg SMS.

is it? I tried HelloNasty's rom before. But XannyTech still the best (personal opinion). Anyway, is there any other ways?
Chinese Input
You should try - CE-Star Standard for WM5/WM6
http://www.mobem.com/products/Personal.php
Various versions available, which include Pinyin, Stroke, Handwriting recognition (which I bought, but don't use).
Has worked perfectly on WM6.1 and WM6.5 Xannytech ROM.
Switching between WM6.5 keyboard and the CE-Star keyboard is a little slow, but works well. Also toggle between CE-Star English mode and pinyin mode sometimes a little irritating. Suggest that once Pinyin Mode is working then switch to WM keyboard for English and not use CE-Star for English.
Chinese Input PS
PS When you install CE-Star it will change your language settings to Chinese, so things like GoogleMaps will start to display all menus in Chinese, Just set Language to English in Regional settings, and everything is back to normal.
I'm interested in purchasing this phone and would like to know if it is possible to add Hebrew and Russian languages to an English ROM. Is having 3 languages going to be a problem with typing through the qwerty keyboard?
keep in mind that Hebrew is right to left language (if it makes any difference :/ )
I used to own an HTC VOX and remember having a bit trouble with it. but then again, it was older OS.
Thanks in advance
Hi, first poster and first time flasher, very exciting stuff, especially the pre-OC'd kernel, I love it
I do have a little issue with myONEv though, the ROM doesn't have a "Français (Cananda)" locale and it appear that all the other French locales have an azerty keyboard. Is it possible to add a French locale with a qwerty keyboard mapping, or somehow change the mapping without changing the language?
Thanks for your time.

Hmmm any French keyboard will work fine
Example m on India but English(dubai) works fine for me
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
Hi, thanks for the reply.
It's not that they don't work, the issue is that all the French locales use the azerty key mapping. In Canada we use the French qwerty keyboard, unfortunately right now I cannot get both a French system and a qwerty stock keyboard in myONEv. I can always use a third party keyboard like swiftkey as a workaround though.
sad man! have u tried googling it!?
