What rom, and I think that it's probable that the rom doesn't have the right localization for chinese.

laoyanyameric,thanks very much,but china can't download file from mediafire,could you provide a other url for plemen's donut?
already found a way to download from mediafire,thanks~~

plemen's donut also not work... all says bad sms encoding...
what can i do...

It has nothing to do with the build that you're running. I'm not sure why someone would think it would.
This needs to be updated in the ril for your provider. You'll need to first supply radio logs from windows mobile of sending/receiving and txt. Than in android the same.

Chinese SMS use PDU 8-bit UCS-2
English SMS use text 7-bit ascii
maybe rebuild mms.apk

same problem with chinese SMS
somebody fix it, it must make a lot of guys use android.
another question is:
in china(maybe in india also), we use UIM as userID.how can we use cave for EVDO AAA。

i can receive and send Korean txts on Windows Mobile 6.1, but failed on Android and Windows Mobile 6.5. When I receive Korean txts, it says bad sms encoding. I tried to send Korean txt to my phone, and got weird letters. Same thing happens on WinMo 6.5........ OHH, im a Verizon user.

ARABIC SUPPORT FOR X1i

Hello all,
I have bought an english version X1 from Hong Kong, even though i reside in Kuwait, the problem is there is no arabic support, it is not like the PC's windows O.S where you can change the regional settings and keyboard input and VIOLA!
Therefore, i will be gratefull for anyone who can provide a ROM or CAB file with arabic support for reading and input (keybaord).
There is a thread that answers to that but the program it offers is expired.
Thank you for your time.
There you go man, I tried this today and it worked flawlesly it also enables the arabic keyboard on screen
http://rapidshare.com/files/166150944/TSD_MOBiDIV_416.cab
Make sure you dont have Tweak xperia tool installed in ur X1, it will not display arabic letters correctly in internet explorer
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!
One question though, the sms is not correctly oredered.
Am i missing something?
Never mind, a managed to fix it, i cant expres my gratitude i have been searching for arabic support for days.
Thanks again!

I was in the same boat man, this thing drove me crazy! I am glad it worked out well
Hi... do u guys still have arabic support? I dont want to type, I just want to be able to read Arabic SMS... the rapidshare link u have is not there anymore...
Thanks.
if you want you can use a program attached to lingosoft dictionary it will give you what you want just search on rapidshare or softarchive you will find it
Arabic Support package
Thanks for the package...
I installed the package and it is working fine. I am experiencing little slowness in the phone but it is OK and not a major problem.
But the significant thing is that the way of viewing the messages is different now. Before installing the package, I used to be able to view the preceding messages and replies at the same opened location(desired message).
Now after installing the Arabic package you cant do that. Each message is alone now. You need to open each message in order to view the content and have to close it and open another message to view it's content.
Did any body had this problem before.
I don't know if there is a way to revert that or if there is an option to view the messages in the old way. I searched the mobile windows but nothing came.
Please help...
SMS Layout
Gentlemen pls help.
I wana c the old layout of the sms, that is you can view all the messages between you the sender in one page actually. it helps a lot in replying to a text sms.
Thank you.
sorry I can help u..

Need Help
Xperia uses windows mobile 6.1 same like other smart phone. Have u ever faced such problem or did u ever change the sms layout from the original one.
Thanks.

how difficult is it to make a custom ROM?

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.

Problem with swedish keyboard.

Hey.
I got a swedish X1 it works great except just 1 thing..
For instance when i open an sms converation and start typing imidiatly, For example something with the hardware keys åäö... they arent placed in the same order as the other keys..
For example.. If i type "jag åker" it could very well become "åjag ker"
As in, The normal letters lagg but the åäö does not.
This is a common problem untill the for example sms app is fully loaded...
Anyone experienced this b4?
Old well known problem and as far as I know there are no real fixes for this.
So its a hardware bug?
anyone can explane better?

No its not. its because the software has to translate the letter å,ä,ö into computer term, when you are using other language than swedish in your rom. So if you got a swedish buil with swedish sys, then no problem at all, if you got the time and effort try other roms in eng then swe and youll see big difference.
so to get the best experience with swedish letters, AKA swedish hardware keyboard run a swe. ROM.
It's as simple as that!
I have a Swedish keyboard and I don't have this problem.

Currently using Itje's Touch it version 4 (also tried 4.5) WWE
Whatever build version that was ?
Chose swedish KB via CE regeditor.
No problems with that. Even used Generic UK ROM as well and did not have the issue described here.
I have to use English Roms as I am a native English speaker, just happened to be in SWE right now and this is where I got my X1. Maybe that makes a difference?

You mean you have a QWERTZ hardware keybord? if so i had the same problem, just change a value in the registry. HKLM>HARDWARE>DEVICEMAP>KEYBD>chage value in CurLang(hexadecimal) from 409 to 407 and soft reset. it worked for me

I have the same problem as hargibi. Have had the problem with all original swedish sony-ericsson ROMs. The defult value for CurLang on my X1 is 1053(decimal) and 41D(hex). Changing the value for decimal to 407 will only serve to transform the hardware into a standard english qwerty which is not what i'm trying to do.
To me it would have made sense if the å ä ö buttons were slower to react than the rest but here we actually have the opposit problem: They are faster, meaning the word godkänner, for example, would become godäknner or even ägodknner depending on how fast you write.
So the question is: has anyone solved this problem or does anyone have any ideas?
Edit: Okay, so i dissabled word suggestions and this solved the problem. Not a very satisfying compromise since im a bad speller and i liked that funktion but it'll work while we're waiting for a better solution...
Edit 2: Forgot the creds! thanks hamre, for the help!

It helps a bit, but not all the way, imho.
Are there any new news about this issue??
Sorry for bringing up this thread from the dead, but its better than creating a new one eh?
Any new about this? Having som problem with almost all latest 6.5 roms that the message-system is really slow. It lags like hell in other words.
ROM overall is suuperfast, havent used any rom as stable as this (826x). But it lags when typing sms.. sometimes i could be like one word ahead when typing fast on the hardware keyboard compared to what is actually shown on the screen. And that messes up with ÅÄÖ. like "jag ska åka bil" end up like "jagå ska ka bil".
And its strange, because the rest of the rom is lightning fast. And to mention, this is when using WM messaging, when typing with HTC message client (go to a contact, switch to messages tab) its running smoothly. BUT, as all knows, HTC message client sucks, how funney is it when typing a sms with the length of 1000 chars then accidentally press "back" and its all gone.. No question "do you want to save?" **** that
Any news about this?

As I remember this is due to an issue with the windows mobile operating system, especially with the fact that you are probably using a WWE version (english version) Rom. There is a Swe 6.5 rom out (non-manila though) give it a try and see if the character lag exists. Otherwise i guess you as I have to just live with it I don't think there will ever be a WWE without this lag
There is a fix for the non-åäö lag though here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581901&highlight=lag
It removes the character count, which means you wont know how many sms how send, but there is no lag atlest
Lycka Till! / Good Luck!

:/ that sucked. I mean, running heavy programs, like word there is no lag when typing. A simple thing like typing a text message on a mobile should work...
If i understood that .cab correctly, you wont be able to send more than 160chars per sms?

Yes you will, but it wont show you how many chars there is, nor how many sms that will amount to so if your sms plan is not unlimited, its quite easy to get a nice bill at the end of the month
And just one more thing, this is my perception of the sms bug, might be someone more knowing than me
Ay its unlimited so that no problem. Ill try!
As i see it, it's not really an issue of non SWE-ROMs... as i still run the stock R3AA SWE ROM and the ÅÄÖ issue is really tiresome... forcing me to slow down my typing and sometimes go back to correct "my" mistakes...
Also, i've turned off the correction/suggestions totally, didn't notice a difference, really weird how they can keep this bug alive throughout all these WM OS builds, such a simple but yet VERY important thing as SMS texting crippled... what a shame.
Edit: oh and i tried that remove letter count fix, but that messed up the texting program, i couldn't enter the email/texting application anymore, so i restored it...

Hm. Acctually that fix did the trick for me. What ROM are you using? Im running 826x 6.5.5 ROM and just by removing the counting the input is instant and no laggy letters anymore
I used the .cab in attached, install and softreboot quickly.

EnergyROM can't add a MMS server?

hey everyone. I flash EnergyROM two days ago, and I'm facing a rather important bug that trouble me, I can't add a MMS server from Messages - All Messages - menu - Settings - Options - MMS server, when I click "new" to add a new MMS server, there is not any response, nothing happens. I wonder if some other guy who flash the same ROM is facing the same problem and how can I fix it? THX very very much!
Here is my machine's information, SE X1 with EnergyROM KOVSKY 20090914 StandardM2.5.
Shouldn't you ask this in the EnergyROM thread rather than start a new thread?

I'm sorry but There are too many replies in EnergyROM thread..
i m having the same problem, but a little bit different, i can set up the mms server, but it does not work in any way, i was searching in registry and found many entries with HTCs servers, cingular servers, but i m brazil, and cant put the mms to work, even changing tre registry entries, but as i dont know very well how to manipulate the registry its still not working, both ways sending and receiving
MMS Issue with Energy ROM
Yeah.. I totally love this particular rom of all the ones out there and picture messaging hasn't worked for me either.. I'm U.S.-ATT
I've actually been sending via email as a work around because I like the rom that much.. Hope this does get resolved...
That problem is due to the leo message app? I have never really got mms working properly when using different roms with it cooked in. Try setting up the connection manually.
Well, i had already tested the jack4.x rom, MultimediaOS from KidDc(i think) and this perfect and bealtiful energy rom, and the only one that was able to send mms was the multimediaOS, but the ROM is ugly and still imature, no good for me...
Im using the operator TIM here in brazil...
if anyone has the solution...
I dont know too, if the energyROM already comes with arcsoft, or it attempts to send via other software(because in system/remove programs, it does not show nothing)
PS: in the multimediaOS the arcsoft version was 5.0.43.98, but neither google could find it...

My sim card allow at maximum 5o sms text. All the rom i'm using are italians but i know that on your exceptional forum i can find someting that can help me with this problem (for example one cab fix,). Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance

There are SMS fixes depending on what device your ROM base is from.
Do you know if your ROM is LEO or Topaz based?
