I see many roms, either custom or stock available but not much info on what ui and input languages they support, is there a way to find out what languages are available before I flash?
Also as I understand the ui and keyboard input languages are in the firmware, does the CSC affect which languages I will have available?
Thanks!

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
Hey,I have using remi-jb rom for a while and now in the new update they got based at slim rom which dont have all system language and have only 4 languages (The keyboard language have the language I need "Hebrew") But I am talking about the system language which in the older versions of the rom was. Is there any way to add a system language to an ready rom

No. Somebody have to compile the ROM again, but nobody did yet.

Hi all,
I'm a i9000 user, a lot of custom ROM developped for this device but all of them language resources partially translated other languages from english.
some menu Items, error messages, confirmation dialogs and etc. of this custom ROMs only english.
I'm not android platform developer but I have a developping history and I think I can understand your recommendations.
Is there a tool that can edit fast and effective the language resources of ROMs or APK files?.
Best regards.
I was surfing the forums and I found custom miui Rom V6 for p7 l10 but when I flash it shown that its not support Arabic language
Even in writing…
So anybody have an idea to add the Arabic language… only in writing don't need it in display ☺
The Rom is wonderful so I don't want to lose it?
Use google keyboard for writing .
And you can use app called (more local 2) for change language to arabic
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!
