Auto Localizer to Far east language for WM2003 or later!

i have finished to creat CAB files to make far east language support in your PPC.
Those make your devices to allow encoding in the Pocket Internet Explore/Inbox,and can select Far east loactions from the "Regional Settings" and also any other Far east language applications can be allowed to be installed and work in your PPC with western language OS.
(not to replace the interfaces of OS to Far east languages)
Still you can use other western languages as before.
Now i made 2 versions for that.
one is to add Only Jpanese support to your devise.
which names [Asukal Lets Japan.cab] 4.4MB
the other is to add Chinese(both of Simple/Traditional) and Japnese support. which named [Asukal e-china.cab] 10MB
*contain the [wince.nls] file(encoding system), and font,and relative registries, but registry will be register automaticaly.
*How to install; DL and copy to your divice this cab, and just tap it.
The installation will be started and to procceed install.
you can down load from here!
http://asukal.seesaa.net/article/1751078.html
@@@You can find those cabs name in the [Remove Programs],
but you can not uninstall it. You have to hard reset to recover to previouse condition. PLS pay attention! and as your own lisk!

Which fonts are you using Asukal? I'm doing similar method as you but I'm using Knife Chinese's fonts which is only 2.xMb in size. And the fonts actually looks pretty good. My Chinese/Japanese nls and font file is less than 4mb in size....

Fonts
i am using Minglu font for the Chinese/Jpanese one.
Yes i knew minglu is very large(8MB) and Sunglobe is smaller than it.
But acturaly, those for my self and japanese guys, and the Sunglobe fonts has japanese chalactor and it was too AGRY for me! i cant stand for using that! (i mean japanese chalactor in Sunglobe) I knew all of Japan Guys same as me, cant love Sunglobe's Kata/Hira Kana.
Thats why i am using Minglu.The Old version of Unisung font for PPC2002 in Knife had very nice Japanese chalactor and very smaller.,but it was bitmap fonts and cant be used in PPC2003.
If you know unicde true type font(CJ font) with nice Japanese chalactor, pls let me know!

hi asukal...
1st, i just want to see (read only) jpnese n chinese character in pocket IE (browsing net) AND in MSN (i have some friend using jpnese character as nick name). is this possible using your cab?? i use xda mini, WM2003SE
im still confuse, will this cab make my english operating system change to japanese? or it will just show chinese n japanese in IE?
2nd, can i use the smaller font? im not japanese so i think as long i can see correct jpnese n chinese character, i will be happy enough. i mean, now i see only unrecognice characters (square boxes). i saw sunglobe and knife font, can i use them with WM2003? if yes, how??
3, why we cannot UNinstall it without have to do hard reset??
thx

re-1st Question
It just make it enable to encode & font link to JP/CN, not change OS to Jpanese or chinese.
the Applications need to encoding are Inbox and IE.
And you can use this cab to do.
re-2nd Question
If you want to use samaller font, yes you can!
but you dont have to use cab file, but use the way of replacing wince.nls file and also change the font registry as you want.
Encoding was controled by the file [wince.nls] in windows folder.
you can download from wince.nls and fonts, also font registry from my site
http://www.asukal.jp/Source.htm
User name ;wince
password: chinese for any files from here.
re:3rd Question
You can delete files which were installed by CAB by manualy.
Or can uninstall from Controle panel---Remove programs,
but after you uninstalled, you have to fix the fnt registry to enable to link another font before soft reset. other wize, the chalactor cant be loaded after soft reset.
So i suggest to hard reset instead to do that. because i cant instruct correctly and afraid friends will be fail it.
Also you can find many kinds of cab files to make localize from my site(addtional new combination cabs)
http://www.geocities.jp/asukal_trader/Localize/localizecab.htm
japanese site but many cabs
http://www.asukal.jp/English/LocalizeCABS.htm (english site, but not so many....no time to update)

Sorry! My English very bad.

Is there a Japanese, Chinese, Thai combination somewhere for UK phone?
Hi,
Have a look at this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3188870#post3188870
It discusses also far eastern languages and I am specificly looking for this combination. I am not sure if it is out there somewhere, or if it is possible?
Anyone can advise or redirect me?
Thanks

Chinese on Cingular 8125

I would like to be able to read Chinese on my Cingular 8125 but don't want to pay $40 for CE-Star. Is there a way to load the Chinese fonts onto my 8125? Someone on other forums talked about a language pack addon for WM5, is there such a thing?

you don't need to pull the font
if you have WXP, get mingliu.ttc for Trad; mssong.ttf for Simp Chinese
however, this trick works ONLY with file explorer, messaging

Does this mean I can't read Chinese on Internet Explorer or my eBook reader?

This credit belongs to Atsukal who is so dedicated to the localization for WM5.0. He is around this forum but he creates very good CAB files to install Chinese, Japanese fonts to enable you to read those languages.
You can visit his funny website and ask him where to obtain the CAB files.

Chinese Input, Dictionary, Calendar, Date & Time on Kaiser?

Sorry if i post at the wrong threads.
I'm interested in this htc kaiser at the first glance on it...
However i do have concern whether this device is can solve my need or not.
Most of the time i need somekind of mobile device that can help me on resolving the Chinese matter, Organizer, etc. With this device, i hope i can replace my mobile phone also.
Though pda phone, smartphone, pocket pc has been in the market for years. I'm not familiar with the technology yet.
Maybe i have been asking too much that i even dream i can just write the chinese word using the touch technology, rather than typing the pinyin.
So the question are:
Will this device (more on wm6) have both traditional and simplified chinese input similiar to windows xp?
Is there a traditional and simplified chinese dictionary software for this device?
Is there a chinese lunar calendar organizer software for this device?
Can it show the chinese lunar date & time besides normal universal date & time at the first screen?

I'm having the same kind of question.
I want to edit (or import) my own chinese dictionary table? How is it possible?

I bet you guys never used a Pocket PC or Windows Mobile before, don't you?
There is NO multilingual version of WM ever released. If it's a Eng version, there's only Eng input methods. If it's Chi, then you got very basic Eng input method plus Chi input methods including handwriting regconition.
However, that doesn't mean that you can't change the rom you are using, nor does that mean that you can't use some Chi add on software like CE-star or Monster.

haha... oh... you got me...
does those software come with dictionary to english and vice versa?
how about the lunar calendar, is there any software that you guys happened to know?
what do you means by changing the rom?

perhaps you can take a look on pdaviet.net

That depends very much on OEM. I know dopod china once bundled dictionary programs for their devices. But even if it don't come with one, you can install one yourself.

Click to collapse
I know there's free lunar calendar program out there. Also, there's also a free today plugin for lunar calendar too. But I never used it and can't spell their names... You may want to try the developement forum.
what do you means by changing the rom?
Click to expand...

By changing, I mean flasing the rom in other language, if one is available - of course that depends on quite a few things including if the vendor has locked your machine (CID locked) or if any free unlocker available, etc..

Thanks... thanks for the info...

Try CE-Star or Monster Chinese. These are add-ons to enable Chinese for non-Chinese Windows Devices.

Got it.
Thanks

I cannot recommend CE-Star nor Monster Chinese as they have a lot of problems working with Windows Mobile 6.
Because of that I am still looking for a working solution to be able to view and input Simplified Chinese on my UK Kaiser.
Anyone?

I have to come back to my previous post as I have been testing the latest CE-Star software (v2.8R3A) which I downloaded from the PxDxA from a user named Leies and so far it seems to be working rather nicely.
I uploaded the files to the following directory: CE-Star v2.8R3A
Right now only the Simplified Chinese base pack is uploaded but I'll add the traditional Chinese and other input menu's later on today.
I personally used the following files and can confirm that so far they seem to be working
- System_GBKC.cab
- Pinyin.cab
- Penpower_GBK.cab
- Crack_R3a.cab
First install the "System_GBKC.cab and do not reboot, then install the Pinyin.cab and Penpower_GBK.cab.
After that you must go to Start -> Programs -> CE-Star and run "install" and reboot after that.
After the reboot you can (must?) run "Crack_R3a.cab" and everything will work fine.
I suppose you can add the other input systems like "Jianyi.cab" and "ChaJei.cab" and also the Traditional Chinese base pack in the same way.

Best Chinese dictionaries
Guys, in terms of dictionaries for the Kaiser, have a look at Pleco Dict from Pleco Software. I have been learning Mandarin for a few years and found this piece of dictionary software the best, by miles. It has a huge range of functions and a good selction of dictioniaries.
I've run the current version on my MDA Pro, but note that there is a new version imminent and this includes Chinese-Chinese dictionaries. So for native speakers who might not use the language learning aspects of the current programme, the coming version will offer even more.

Hi Tr1gg3R,
I tried your link and not able to get the files. I have tried Monster Chinese on my AT&T Tilt (HTC 8925 or Tynt II) and yes it creates hell of issues such as:
1. Instant Messaging problem originally came with phone won't work (blank white screen now can't select AIM / MSN / Yahoo Messager to sign on)
2. Any / ALL Java applications won't work.
3. Most settings / menus now in Chinese without way to switch to English such as Google Maps
Uninstalling fixed all. I did eninstalled and they all function again.
I would like to try your CE-Star but the link you had is not doing anything. Help? Thanks.

Chinese
I have found a program that seems to work nicely with WM6.1 I have a tilt and it works fine. It does not allow for you to imput chinese other than simple, but it will allow you to read chinese. Also I use DR Eye 2.0 dictionary it slows my system down a little bit, but I really need to have some english to chinese dictionary. I do not know how to upload files but if you want them just send me a PM.

Chinese
I have uploaded the files to my 4shared account the link is. This is where you will find the cab file. I have tested this on most 6.1 roms ans seem to have no real lag or probles, but I only use my PDA for simple apps. If you have any problems let me know. Have fun Flashing

Yeah, I am looking for this one since I brought my X1 from UK and the CE-Star I got is not the bundle one.

CE Star
I have installed CE-Star program and it works fine. I have the U.S. version of Sony X1, so if I open Opera and IE to view chinese website, it will not show the chinese characters. But once I installed it. I can see it fine.
My main concern is once this software installed. All my other applications like Skype, messenger...etc shows chinese language instead of English. There is no way I set it back to just read english, even though remove ce-star from memory, it will still show the chinese characters which is not cool.
Does anyone know how fix that ?
I just want this problem to allow me to turn it on and view and write chinese characters but not to change the language on the other programs to show chinese.

Just change yr regional setting to USA or UK.

Cut the crap, ChinesePlus.
For viewing, that's good enough.
For writing, use TouchPal, but need to get the license to active the multiple language input.

I followed the instructions here for adding font to read Chinese: http://leeblood.com/2008/02/16/windows-mobile-6-changing-the-system-font-adding-korean-support/
It's for Korean font, but if you substitute with a Chinese font instead of malgun.ttf it still worked.

Chinese display support for WWE ROMs(CHT/CHS PinYin IME added, Apr,2010)

I love using WWE ROMs but I have to read/type Chinese on my phone since most of my friends are Chinese. By searching on the Internet, I made a Chinese support pack by myself. Seeing there are some threads talking about Chinese support, I would like to share my work with all of you.
(I've checked it again and again to make sure it enables Chinese display with min change to the system, while other methods like installing CEStar will be a big project.)
To enable Chinese displaying on your PPC, you must have:
1, a WinCE.nls that supports GB/Big5 encoding(Chinese encoding);
2, a font that includes Chinese characters.
I have packed the above stuff into 2 cabs.
BasicSupport.cab installs a WinCE.nls extracted from Hong Kong Official Chinese ROM to your \Windows folder and set your "Region" to "Chinese(PRC)" by default(it won't affact English displaying).
For Traditional Chinese users, please set your Region to "Chinese(TW/HK/Macao)". This step is to enable GB/Big5 on your phone to display non-unicode Chinese characters.
FontDiamondJH.cab includes a font(微软正黑) from HK Official CHT Diamond ROM that includes 99% of both Simplified & Traditional Chinese characters.
FontCrystalHei.cab includes a font from HK Official Pro2 Asia ROM that includes 99% of both Simplified & Traditional Chinese characters.
FontPMingLiu.cab includes a font(細明體) from HK Official Pro2 Asia ROM.
FontMSYHWin7.cab includes a font from MS Windows 7(微软雅黑).( too big, Go to alternative download to get this)
It's not a must to make 2 cabs, just easier for me to replace/update either the font or WinCE.nls respectively. You can merge them into one cab if you like.
Perform a soft-reset after installing these two cabs and your phone is ready for Chinese.
Tested on ROMs for Touch Pro2:
CELL PRO
CELL EVO PRO
Energy ROM
AthineOS
Valkyrie FireStorm
Rhodium_AF
HK/EU Official WWE ROM
According to the same principles, these two cab should also work on other HTC WM6.1/6.5/6.5.3 devices like Touch Pro(Tested), Diamond(Tested), Diamond2(Tested), HD2, etc.
Install any Chinese IME you like after you enabled Chinese display.
Suggested IME:
QQ PinYin: hard-keyboard, CHT/CHS switch,etc. but doesn't have Qucik,Cangjie,WuBi version yet, only PinYin
There is another option: PlumSIP(modified by myself) , supports PinYin, Quick, Cangjie, WuBi.
Download site:
http://cid-00064b7b21604ad4.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Pro2/Chinese Related

KeypadPYPatch.cab to enable PinYin index in your dialer and contacts. You should install this if you have lots of Chinese contacts.

Thanks! Appreciate your work and letting the rest of us know.

THX!

What version of CELL PRO did you perform the test?
I'm on V10.1. Won't even let me install the BasicSupport.cab.

Is UCWEB works with your Chinese display support? I installed Rickey 14M YaHei Chinese fonts, it works fine except for UCWEB.

I have been using the same thing for years
Your method seems too overly complicated.
I posted a method on the XDA-developers wiki a few years back when I figured out the best way to get Chinese/Japanese display support. I have been using this since my first Windows 2003 PDA over 6 years ago.
The best thing is it is only 1.8 megs total and it has full support for ALL Chinese and Japanese including Chinese pinyin.
Check it out on the Wiki here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweak_Language_Chinese
If you want Chinese input, I use PlumSIP and it works great with the keyboard, as I use the "Mail" button to easily switch between English and Chinese, or even between different input methods of English (such as T9) and Chinese (such as stroke based). Anyone interested in this? This tops out at a 3.6 meg download.

I finally got UCWEB worked!! Thanks! I just removed the Ricky YaHei font pack & installed the Chinese support, then UCWEB worked!!
Thanks again for the excellent work!

I believe that my cab is a more simplified one than that in wiki(maybe mine look complicated by telling all the principle) and I have removed all unnecessary steps for WM6.1/6.5/6.5.3, all you have to do is to install two cabs.
I'm using Plum too, Keycode.ini have to be modified to suit the Pro2 keyboard(mostly for the symbols and "C/E" switch). I have both Chs and Cht version, like 拼音/五笔/速成/比划/仓颉.
Alternative IME like A4 is also great. By the way, PlumSIP had been sold to Sohu so it's new version is called Sogou Mobile IME(搜狗手机输入法).

Hi ChiYuen,
This is wonderful stuff!!!
I'm using the HD2 with the Asian WWE 1.66 installed and it works beautifully!
Only problem is that since the english font is in bold typeface, it would be perfectly if the chinese font could also be bold.
I know I'm a little bit picky but that's perfection, man!
Keep up the good work!!!
Cheers!

I think using a cab, you could just pop in the 1 file and 1 reg entry and have the simplest solution! And still smaller
On another note, PluSip is now Sogou IME? Damn, I never liked the Sogou IME for Windows (though it's prediction is better than the MS one), I always use the Google one, as I consider it far better.

On that note, I decided to just do that:
I have attached a cab that supports Traditional, Simplified, Pinyin, and Japanese characters...
Let me know how it works!
I originally got the font file off of my first Chinese bought Windows phone. In those days the engineers at MS figured out a way to compress and simplify the font set of all needed Chinese/Japanese characters for use on devices that did not have a lot of space to spare (i.e. 16 megs).

I can use different cabs to switch fonts without touching WinCE.nls, that's why I divided my pack into two parts, part one is WinCE.nls while part 2 is the font.
In fact the Diamond font(in my first post) is not the only font cab I made, I did also make cabs including TouchPro2 chinese font, WinVista YaHei font or other chines fonts, so that I can install the font I like.

That's all about the font. The Diamond font from HK official ROM is not a bold one. You can use your own favourite Chinese font you like, just modify my font cab using WinCAB Manager, put in your own font, change the reg entry, you can make your own font cab.
Or you can send me the font you like, I can make a cab for you.
I was looking for many different fonts but the Diamond Font is still my favourite font so far.

yeah, I guess I am just looking for the smallest size possible, while also including Japanese... I guess it comes from the day when I only had a meager 24 megabytes of storage space so I had to be frugal!
Maybe we should cab all the different font styles and post them on the wiki?

thanks for you share !
