I am a "noob" so please don't jump all over me if it do this wrong or post in the wrong place. That being said and out of the way:
I am living in korea and bought my X1 a few days ago. I don't read Korean so well so i flashed an english rom to it. Everything seems to work fine except the messaging service. I can send sms out but i can't get any responses.
I know that SKT uses it's own sms service or something like that...
So my question is: Is there a way to change only the language of the OS and leave everything else the same?
I would like to keep the stuff that came with the Korean rom (sms service, korean dictionary the panels, etc.) just put the OS in english.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone.
First of all, I would like to say that this forum and this community are one of the bests I've ever encountered before.
After that, I've got a couple of questions that would help me finaly buy this Diamond...
1°) Using a lot my email account, and knowing it's a Windows Live one, will it work on the 'Mail' tab in TF3D? Or do I have to go all the way through programs==> Windows Live? Will it work as a standard Windows Live Mail like on my Pc?
2°) Also I would like to know if a French version supports Greek characters for texting.
Thank you for your replies.
Edit : Also, being a fan of Microsoft, I own a Zune, & a Xbox 360. Is there any interaction possible? Especially with the Zune Software on my PC (Replaces WMP11 for my Zune device and is a kick ass) ?
Regards.

Answer 1) I use the Live function of my phone, and it integrates fully with the TouchFlo 3D so yes, it works as normal email just settings are done through the Live application (which is brought up when you go into normal email settings anyway).
Answer 2) I can't say for French roms but I have a English ROM Diamond and the Greek letters are on there, just stashed way down on the symbols list.
I hope this helps. I don't know if you can Greek as a proper keyboard on an English or French ROM, but if you find out you can please let me know as this would be nice for me too.

Thanks for your response, I will look into it.
Anyone else, who owns a Zune could tell me if Zune software works with the Diamond?
Hi,
I am thinking of cooking my own ROM.
All I need to do is mixing two ROMs, nothing fancy.
Here is the situation I am in.
I am in Canada but I use my mother tongue a lot (most of my contacts are not in english).
So, I tried installing the Korean ROM from SKTELCOM.
However, there was a slight problem with the SMS (and possibly MMS but I don't use MMS so I am not sure) and internet/data (3G, Edge, etc, but I don't use data so I don't mind this bit - Wi-Fi is working).
The SK ROM uses a seperate application for SMS and the original MS SMS feature inside the message (where you can find your email accounts as well) is either disabled or removed.
And to use this application, I have to go through changing the formats of all contants I have.
Also, I can't use any SMS notifications that were made for the original SMS features (including the original WM notifications).
I am looking for a way to enable or istalling whatever to get the original SMS feature back.
So my question is,
Would it be possible to mix two ROMs, X1i-eng & SKTELCOM, to get basic phone features from X1i-eng and language and applications from SKTELCOM?
If so, could you help me do it?
I have read the tutorials for ROM cooking etc, but I am a little scared doing it.
If I were to go ahead and do it, should I base the SKTELCOM ROM and try to mix the phone features or should I base the ENG ROM and try to implement language and applications?
Any insights would be helpful.
Thanks.
In your situation, you probably don't need to install the Korean ROM. Since you say that you need your contacts to be displayed which are in Korean, you could just install a Korean font on a WWE(English) ROM. On top of that, if you need to be able to input Korean, you will need the appropriate IME and SIPs. There are CAB installers that will do what I've said. I would search them for you but I'm feeling a bit lazy
Thanks for the reply.
I know about the fonts..
But my main concern was the inputing part.
Where could I find IME and SIP for Korean input?
I've searched using "korean" but nothing much came up..
korean sms with UK OS
Hello,
I am facing a big problem, i just bought Xperia phone in Korea, then change the KR ROM into UK ROM, everything works well except the fact that i can't receive sms from abroad or sms using korean caracteres.
I would like to keep the OS in UK and be able to receive sms.
any solution? i checked on every messages posted, but no solution....
thanks in advance!!
update?
Hey dahanist, how's that ROM going? I'm in the same situation you are, so I'm hoping maybe you made some progress.
Is it possible to change User Interface language e.g. from German to English? Or is it necessary to change the whole image?
Thank you very much for reply...
Yep. My UI is english instead of german, but all localization options are set to german (time-format & co.). If you browse the marketplace with this settings, you get a german description of apps (if available), but after installing them the ui of them is set to english.
My language options are englsh/german/spanish on my german o2 HD7.
So far my experience.
Thank you very much... I am on my way to Germany to buy one... ))
Hmm, maybe you won't have luck. It's sold out here everywhere.
Its was not. I bought one in Dresden...
And I have seen several of them in O2 shops in Munich as well. They didnt have them in store but when I asked the sales, he said, that he has couple of them on stock.
Find the shops in your area, check if they have it and go

Till now I thought, I have a good phone (HD2) but since I have HD7 I dont like it anymore.
Hi all,
I want to start by saying that this forum has been very helpful to my in customising my GT-I9000, and I want to thank you all for this help. I have had a Galaxy S for about a week and I am really liking the flexibility of this phone. But without your efforts, there would not be near as much flexibility.
So I have a question about language support across different firmwares. It requires a little explanation, so I apologies in advance if it is a bit too much text. I use linux a fair bit, but I am new to Android so I dont know many of the details of the system yet. I am a n00b, however, I want to show that I actually put effort into what I want to do instead of just asking for someone else to do it for me from the beginning.
I would like to have the ability to send SMS in Hebrew from the SGS native messaging software. I find no problem inputting in Hebrew using various Keyboards such as AnySoftKey. However, the sms is received as a series of question marks. I guess it is a lack of character support, probably somewhere between typing the text in Hebrew, and the phone transmitting it across the networks.
I could install a firmware from an Israeli network as they have Hebrew input on their firmware versions. However, these are not very up-to-date and I would rather use a newer firmware (I have JPX with Darky's Gingerbread 6.0 mod, which is very up-to-date ).
I want to take it step by step, so I think I should start with the Keyboard input.
AnySoftKeboard works well for Hebrew input, and the text it makes works in all apps except the Messaging app (although it looks just fine on my side). But Perhaps the Samsung Keyboard would work?
I have looked at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796854
It describes methods of porting Keyboards from one firmware version to another. This is specific to porting the Eclair keyboard to Froyo.
So I tried to apply this logic to my needs. But I have difficulties knowing which firmwares have Hebrew language input support, yet alone a keyboard that is compatible with JPX. I tried with the keyboard from firmware I9000JHJP8 (only one I am sure has Hebrew support), but the porting following the instructions in the thread did not work. I am sure with some trial an error (and probably lots and lots of error ) I would eventually be able to get it to work.
So before I start trying to get it to work, I would like to know if you think that changing the keyboard would make any difference, or, if the problem lays somewhere else?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Hey. I hate to bump this but its gone to many pages from the first.
I wont bump again as I guess there may be no answer for this question.
Still Should I bother trying to convert the keyboard as i suggested above?

Hello guys, im new (noob) to this thread and im sorry if this is already explained somewhere. I bought my mom a HTC One and i miss my language there which is Slovak, i just find all the fancy English, German, Spanish and Portugese...can anyone give me a hint how to "activate" the language of Slovak? i tried apps like More Locale 2 but all i get is either the application was closed unexpected, or i get a message to use some "pm" command or use SuperUser privileges. Is there a reliable way to get it running without ruinig the phone? I also could send the phone back to the seller but he already got my money and if he gets the phone as well i affraid what will happen thanks for any hints and please dont hate me, i tried to look for the same topic...didnt find any Tomas
