I live in Germany and also do a lot of international traveling. I have my phone set to English, but it switches to the local language every time I change my SIM. I have two SIM cards that I use in Germany and switch out quite often. How can I prevent the language from switching to german every time i change my SIM? It might sound like a minor issue, but it gets super annoying after a while.
You only need to change these lines:
ro.product.locale.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=GB,en
search for other with DE or ger in it.
It can be found in build.prop
what menu is that in? I can't find any of those settings. I have the Zeus firmware installed.

Find those lines in "build.prop" file, which is located in /system/build.prop (on the internal memory)
You can edit it manually, or use applications like "ROM Toolbox" or "build.prop Editor"
Do you prefer English to German? I heard that German is hard
German is the easiest language, if you grow up with it Just look at his flag

Hi folks.
At first i have to say, that this is a somehow unclean and tricky solution, but it works somehow and maybe it can be improved.. There are some threads on this forum, which deal with that, but i'm going to describe, what i did, to get it working.
You need:
- The new Touch IT 2.1-ROM (don't know yet, if it works with other ROMs - think only if it's the same build)
- A backup from a german ROM (mine was made by SPB-backup from the cmEX-image, also don't know if other ROMs/backup tools work)
- The language files from here (German.rar)
- A registry editor (I used PHM regedit)
First i took all the mui-files out, by using the Windows search and copying them into another folder, then i transferred them via ActiveSync into the \Windows folder.
Then I put a link to the registry tool and to the explorer and PHM regedit in the TF3D programs panel (you'll need that, because after changing the registry to use german language your start menu will be screwed up for some reason and you can't access any program anymore).
Now you have to change two registry values and optionally set your region in the regional settings:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\MUI]
"SysLang"="1031" (for german)
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\MUI]
"CurLang"="1031"
-> It's time to do a soft-reset and you'll notice, that the pin-dialogs and so on are in german.
Go to the TF3D programs panel (as i said: Start menu will be screwed up - there are links for programs and settings, but they won't work) and start explorer to execute your backup.
After that your ROM should be fully german.
This is probably not a very good solution and it's kind of buggy, but it is a start..
I couldn't get it until know, how to cook the language files into a ROM (tried it with extracting the new Touch IT 2.1 and inserting the files from German.rar, but ended up with the device starting up and showing a black screen all the time).
If somebody could help me out with that, i would, if i am allowed, make a german version of the Touch IT 2.1 ROM.
Any additions or corrections appreciated!!
I've searched for this topic but came up empty.
Some system files, Align Screen for example, comes up with Greek letters in the title but English instructions. I have run Kaiser Tweak and Advanced Config at different times, but I don't see any utility to change the system font.
Any ideas?

This is a wery weak post, you dont include any needed information as ROM, phone, installed apps and so on. To try answer this blindly you can goto my cab corner and grab one of the font cabs I made and see if that solves it for you.

Two ways:
1. Download the app MoreLocale.apk, install, then you can enable "Chinese"
2. In build.prop, replace
persist.sys.language=en
persist.sys.country=US
with
persist.sys.language=zh
persist.sys.country=CN
persist.sys.timezone=Asia/Shanghai
ro.product.locale.language=zh
ro.product.locale.region=CN
wipe and restart phone
I rooted the device now and trying to enable display language in the usual way: system\csc\ trying to look for language.xml. It is simply not there. So is there any where I can find it?
Even tried changing the whole CSC folder from TGY rom and the language is still unavailable (permission fixed). Only apps change language but system apps doesn't.
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy note 8 Snapdragon with root v3 running 7.1.1 on it. I removed the stock keyboard with oreo keyboard ( Samsung Keyboard Neural Beta 3.0.10.34. ) the problem im having is it wont install US English Language so no swipe to text. Ive tried clearing cache and wiping data and still no fix. Any suggestions?
I had the same issue with Oreo Samsung KB. I don't use swipe but it's the same issue that causes predictive text not to work & US English won't update. If you install UK English, predictive text & swipe will work but US English will disappear. Then you can't get US English back unless you clear data for Samsung KB.
Here's what I did to get it working, really simple. Extract the folder in the attached zip. Copy the entire en_us folder to /system/omc/sipdb. Set permissions, reboot.

I use Root Explorer but any root file explorer should be able to set permissions.
Thanks working

Took a bit of time, figured it out by diggin around, flashing back & forth from Oreo to Nougat. Luckily TWRP made that easy for me. I currently like Nougat better but I like the Oreo keyboard.
Since it worked fine in Oreo, I figured it had something to do with the language files so I looked for them. They get installed in 2 different locations depending on CSC. I use T-Mobile CSC on N950F. I noticed if I used International CSC like XEU (which is my original) or other multi, everything works fine, US English didn't need updating, & the language files gets installed in another location. With Nougat it doesn't install the same language files like Oreo, or at least not in the same locations & works fine with the Nougat version keyboard. There were actually 2 other language related files but those 2 didn't make a difference if they were installed or not.
Please help me. The same with me.
I can't download Korean keyboard.
