Bing Vision's translate function on Windows Phone 8: broken. - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having a problem with Bing Vision's translate function on the Lumia 620, with the O2 UK software. In short, it doesn't recognise non-Latin characters. Ever. The Latin-based text it does recognise is always identified as English, so the translation fails. In effect the app no-longer functions.
I wondered who else was having this problem. I know that some other people are, but it would be useful to know what phone/software combinations are affected. If you have the time, please post if the app still works for you, what phone you used and what OS version. Maybe throw in your phone's locale as well. You can of course find Chinese characters using Google/Bing Translate in your browser.
Thanks all.
So to kick things off:
Model: Nokia Lumia 620
OS version: 8.0.10211.204
Status: Not working (Chinese to English, Latvian to English)
Locale: English (GB)
Model: Samsung Omnia 7
OS version: N/A
Status: Working (Chinese to English)
Locale: English (GB)

XDA Mini S (a.k.a. HTC Wizard): An English OS?

I bought today the device (XDA Mini S, a.k.a. HTC Wizard) from O2 Germany. But I couldn't change the language. The OS info shows that the OS distrubution is a German version.
I want so badly the "normal" English interface, this one is just awful (like every translation in fact, in my opinion).
What can I do? Can I flash the OS at home? Or does somebody know whether O2 would be so kind to flash it with an English version?
Thanks a lot in advance!
P.S. I've seen in a topic here a screenshot of a ROM Update Utility from I-Mate, so I guess I *can* update it in home conditions, but where can I download the utility and a latest version? And is it a problem that mine is from O2 named XDA Mini S and the utility and software are for K-JAM?

[APP] Native Keyboard for WP7 (Russian, Ukrainian,...) -[U]- 17 DEC 2011 -[V]- 2.21

The program alters Spanish or German system keyboard into one of the supported languages (see the list), or extends English keyboard. That will allow you to write text in your language anywhere in Windows Phone 7.
Starting from version 3.0 the application registers the keyboards in the system. So they are available under their own language switch.
If your phone hangs and restarts after installing version 3.x, then read the following post: #321.
Supported languages:
Russian
Ukrainian
Danish
Norwegian
Swedish
Finnish
Polish
Romanian
Czech
Hungarian
Bulgarian
Estonian
Latvian
Lithuanian
Bosnian
Croatian
Slovenian
Serbian
Slovak
Greek
Portuguese
Turkish
Hebrew
Macedonian
Thai (thanks to varavut for the layout!)
Arabic
Persian (Farsi)
Georgian (no font support, just a layout!)
Mongolian
Icelandic
I cannot test all keyboards personally. Please let me know if you find anything wrong in a keyboard layout.
Notes:
Use it on your own risk. In case of a problem, you might need to hard-reset your smartphone.
Your smartphone must be dev-unlocked: ChevronWP7 Unlocker, Tom XAP Installer.
The application supports Samsung, HTC and LG smartphones.
Version 3.x works on Samsung smartphones only. Other devices will be supported as soon as technically possible.
Versions 2.17+ support Mango. Imprortant: Your phone must be INTEROP-UNLOCKED to be able to run this application on Mango!
Changes in v2.21:
It works on Samsung phones with Mango now!
HTC COM-interfaces were updated to match the new libraries. It may fix compatibility with HTC phones on Mango.
Changes in v2.20:
New HTC libraries (extracted from Mango ROM). I hope it will fix the problem when the application cannot recognize an HTC phone.
Changes in v2.19:
Fixed alternative characters on Mango. (Note: this version is not compatible with older versions of OS anymore!)
Changes in v2.18:
Improved reporting of the initialization errors.
Changes in v2.17:
Experimental Mango support. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on Samsung devices yet. So I cannot test it on my Omnia 7. But it should work on HTC and LG devices. Please let me know whether it worked for you.
Imprortant: Your phone must be INTEROP-UNLOCKED!
Fix: Some keyboard layouts referenced nonexistent RegistryPatch.xml file.
Changes in v3.3:
New keyboards: Icelandic.
Greek: 7-bit layout can be installed side-by-side to the regular Greek layout.
Changes in v2.16:
New keyboards: Icelandic.
Before upgrading to a new version of the application, use "Revert patch" function.
Hm. Tried this on my HD2 with WP7-Rom.
German was the only selected Keyboard in Settings.
Deployed with WP7-Developer Tools, but nothing changed, both in german and spanish keyboard.
//edit: omg, I'm so dumb..found the app in applist. thanks a lot, working fine =]

I can create a Spanish keyboard for you, but it will replace English one.
The best way for you could be moving to european version of ROM, if possible.

Note 9 UI language change not properly translated in "settings"

I have a Canadian note 9 and I try to change the UI language in Greek but the "settings" menu is not properly translated. The most of it is still in English.
I tried the language enabler and other commands but the results is still the same. Since we can not root that phone and I guess all american models is there another way to have
a properly translated menu?
Hello, i have the same Problem... I have a Canadian Galaxy Note 9 (SM-N960W) and when I set the language to German only some texts are translated and the most text stay in English even after Reboots and the latest Firmware Upgrade.
And before anybody suggests that i should buy the global version of the phone: I won the phone and i'd like to use it.
kind regards
