Hi,
I got a Desire which has only English and French language support.
HTC told me that even they are not able to add additional languages, since Android is setting the language according to a specific file in the file system.
So if you are installing a new firmware, only the selected languages are installed, even that all languages are included in the firmware file.
My question now, is it possible to add additional languages, or change the file that with the next firmware upgrade additional languages are installed?
Thanks

hey..
in my country (israel) we have the israeli rom from "newpan" company .
but I prefer a XDA cooked Rom.
What I need is the language issue.
Here is the ROM + Hebrew file updates the language,
emphasis the (hebrew) dialer actually missing...
The problem they have committed a form of protection install
by the IMEI of the device, so devices Not purchased through them
can not update this file ...
Can remove the protection?? or at least extract the files of hebrew dialer support my language (Hebrew)?
Many thanks in advance for those who help me

As you can see from the flag to the left I'm from Brazil. I've flashed OKV3 and it has support to portuguese from Portugal only (yes, it IS different). I mean the system language, not the input only.
I was wondering...is there a way to extract some kind of language file from my original BR rom and add it to OKV3?
Hi, I found this thread that shows how to add languages to the international version of the GS3.. I tried them on my Sprint SPH-L710 but I couldn't get the language to show..
Can anybody help me add Arabic? I would like it for the language and to be for the GS3 keyboard as well..
I'm using hackers keyboard and able to type Arabic but not liking it as the GS3 keyboard.
Thanks.

So,
It seems like Samsung has introduced a new way for supporting languages on the Galaxy S3.
If you go inside the language settings you will see a nice bunch of languages.
But! Those are not all the available languages on the phone!
There are 5(!) more languages you can "unlock" in 2 ways.
The languages are:
Arabic (ar)
Farsi (fa)
Hebrew (iw)
Japanese (ja)
Thai (th)
Vietnamese (vi)
Chinese (zh)
The easy way to enable them is to download the application "morelocale2" and add to choose or add the language code you want.
With this method you will not see these languages in your language settings.
To enable these languages in the language setting of your phone, you will need to root it.
you can use Chainfires method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1660918
The next step is to use root explorer or any other familiar application and go into /system/csc.
There is a file there named languages.xml.
If you open the file you will see a list of languages to display.
Just add your desired language code from the list above (in 2 places in the file) + country code, reboot, and then you will see that language in your language setting!
good luck!
Is no one able to help with this???

When I put all the apk files apktool tool unpacked, I found that almost all contain a variety of language packs, such as China Chinese, zh-cn. In particular, the framework document framework-res.apk also contains the complete Chinese and other national language.
Curiously, why the factory after the system starts, you can not choose zh-cn Simplified Chinese language I want it?
The system is not being shielded it? Or what method causes it? There are people who can help me do?
have you tried to install morelocale app or something?

PS: it is the following ClockworkHomeGoogle.apk\assets\ does not contain a zh-cn language pack, cause, my guess is it?
Hey guys, my dad bought the t700 few days ago, and its impossible to change the language to russian. He doesnt understands english, and the only available languages are english and different asian languages...
I have the lollipop Saudi ROM (only cause it has latest changelist) and it seems to have Russian. I would suspect all XXU ROM to have Russian. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the list though. Because it's not written in ascii, it is sorted below all other languages

Is flashing a different region the only way to get access to other languages? Would I be able to get Norwegian on US tablet using the Cellular South rom?
You could add the desired language to the language.xml under system/csc/ but you need to have root access for that. Display and input languages can be added/enabled. For Russian you would have to add ru_RU for example.
I'm using Locale Pro app. You'll need to follow the instruction they have when u try to change language. Worked for me. At some point u will need to put yr tablet into the development mode by tapping on the Build number seven times.
