I have knocked up a WinMo to Android SMS import tool for a client, which i'm smartening up and making available for general use, and i'm looking for Beta testers!
More details can be found here: http://android.modaco.com/content/software/288916/windows-mobile-sms-migrator-beta-1/
If you are able to test and post feedback PM me on MoDaCo and i'll send you the APK.
I have successfully used this to import a bunch of SMS to Android. Note, ROOT ACCESS IS REQUIRED.

Hello , i live in Israel and i want to buy an htc wilfire.
there is a shop that sells it and the shop's name is "E-Line", they offer an upgrade to android 2.2 for money [ because they add Hebrew support (keyboard + fonts)].
So i have a few questions:
1) The most important one: do you think they make an official update provided by HTC or install a custom ROM? (I'd like to root it after a few months of usage and i heard that i can't root the original froyo)
2) Is there any ROM (except "SUnAaBh" ) that HAS Hebrew support? (I'd prefer to buy on android 2.1 and change ROM by myself to 2.2, and save money)
If the answer to (2) is "NO" than:
3) Is there any way to install Hebrew keyboard and fonts onto a cusom ROM? (Please give a link or an explanation on how to do it)
As for the upgrade they "provide", there's no way to know if it's the official one or not.
Well, not with the information you (and probably they) have given.
About Hebrew support, Android 2.1 can't display hebrew glyphs (they're simply not implemented in the font) but it's relatively trivial to fix, and there's even a script on iandroid.co.il that does it for you (but you have to be rooted and your rom must be de-odexed).
Unfortunately this is my first post so I can't post outside links I'll PM you the forum thread for the script if you want. (or you can just google it)
Android 2.2 can display hebrew glyphs natively without any sort of patching, so you're not required to use specifically SUnAaBh or whatever
As for the hebrew keyboard, you just need an extra keyboard app that supports hebrew layouts, the ones I know of are AnySoftKeyboard (free) and Smart Keyboard Pro (costs .99$ I believe).
I should mention that both Android 2.1 and 2.2 have a bug that cause certain applications (notably gmail) to display hebrew words reversed, the script I mentioned also contains a fix for that, as does the Cyanogen rom.
thanks, you've helped me
Hi,
Recently i've downloaded & trying the newly ported Gingerbread Keyboard on my Samsung Galaxy S (I9000), The keyboard is very nice, thanks to the developers who ported this to GALAXY S .
The problem is i am unable to find a way to import & export the words; this keyboard stores . I use to Flash different ROMs, every time I Flash a ROM all of my saved words are lost
I've searched alot but didnt find any thing , There is an APK which can import & export words but it can only be used with swype Keyboard.
Thanks for your Response & Help
Regards
Hello,
I am creating a skin and I just need a few people to confirm that it works on their device. You do not have to be rooted, but if you are, please be sure you are running a stock ROM before requesting the theme and reporting back. The theme is not completely finished yet, I am just trying to create a list of confirmed devices it works on. Thanks, PM me if you are interested.
Hello everybuddy
Happy to be among you XDA members
I am new to android, I know how to work with Odin and what a custom ROM, rooted OS,... mean and need some answers to figure out some concepts:
1. I guess Google has made android a modular and structured platform, is it possible to extract some base applications from one ROM and install it on another one currently running on the phone (i9000 in this case), for example is it possible to extract ICS sms app and install it on a 2.3.3 ROM on the phone? or for example extract excellent Samsung keyboard from stock 2.3.3 ROM and install it in a custom ICS ROM?
2. How android manages input languages? for example I see one ROM providing 6 european languages and another with middle-eastern ones... does android provide a regular method to install and uninstall input languages from standard keyboard? (for example you may tell take X files from some ROM and add them to Y folder in another ROM) if so I may add some languages to an ICS custom ROM.
3. How it manages fonts? is there a regular method to add other fonts to the phone? and how to set the default one?
4. A strange problem I saw in a custom ICS rom was that it kept phone numbers in dash-based format (i.e. 090-233-23-23) and if the numbers already in address book was simple and dash-free, wile receiving incoming calls the phone app can't match the contact name in the address book and only shows the number! How you may change this? I like numbers stay simple and dash-free!
5. How to analysis all low-level OS files currently on the phone? for example is there some PC software similar to Odin that connects to phone and shows file system tree ?
Thanks in advanced for any help and reply
as far as keyboard goes if you are talking about swype you can get the swype beta which is free and works on Ics.
I have this on my phone running team icsgs.
Just do a quick google search for swype beta.

I don't mean Swipe, all the features it provides, the way it changes language and...
I need to figure out how android provides modules
Hi, did you find out how input languages work? I just installed the ICS333 ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) and would like to add Greek, which is not currently listed (in the Android keyboard settings > input languages).
low level?
Im currently on Euphoria ROM, which has (of course) aosp keyboard baked in.
Since I'm a dutch user and I want gesture input, I need to have the Dutch dictionary installed.
Adding it from the settings isn't possible.
Please help me on adding it manually.
In not interested in installing another keyboard (for now).
I sure hope it can be done.
Thanks for any help given!
I tried to install Greek dictionary with no success. I would also like to know how it's done...
