Hey. So I got my new HTC One today. I am in sweden, bought it from a swedish reseller. At the initial setup - picking language, Swedish was set to default. However I went into the language option and picked english, regretted my choice and went back in, and to my surprise swedish was not even available to pick again :s So I called HTC support, they did a s/n check and told me my HTC One was "grey imported" and not "meant" for sweden.
Anyways to cut the story short, the support guy said IF I were on 4.2.2 (which I am), morelocal2 wont work to switch language BUT there is another way to do it, but that he was no longer, due to company policy allowed to explain how (DUH). He hinted that I needed to reset some app, make it "forget" where the phone is (locationwise). After some googling and reading here I found this info:
Have you try this:
Go to Settings - Apps - All - Customization Settings Provider - Disable it
Then go to Language & keyboard - System Language - Select your language
Reboot
Go to Settings - Apps - All - Customization Settings Provider - Enable it again
You're done.
The problem is that the "Customization Settings Provider" is no longer there. Can someone please guide me what to do? What´s the app I need to disable?
/Regards Matt
Matt if the Swedish option was there on first boot, then just save the important stuff to a PC and factory reset the phone it should pop up on first boot

Thanks for the tip. However, I have managed to solve the issue by giving morelocale2 the correct permissions, using adb shell.
Thanks

1. I am trying to get Arabic text working on my Xperia, and I found a MoBiDIV 417 file that I installed and it seems to have worked, but now I can't open the start menu. I click it, the phone freezes for 10-15 seconds, and then nothing happens (but I can click other buttons). I suppose I'll have to re-install my rom, but before I do, is there any way to use my computer and change the localization? I'm assuming the localization is the problem because 99% of the text on my phone is now Arabic, and that must be causing an issue with something in the start menu. I want to change the localization away from what I assume is some Middle Eastern area to English - America or English - UK, so that my system is all in English but it can display Arabic when necessary (whereas before it was just a bunch of squares). Normally this is easy to do, but when the start menu won't even open...I did also try using the keyboard start button, just in case, but it gave the same pause-then-nothing result as pressing the upper left corner of the phone.
2. On an unrelated note, I've been trying to find a good data monitor. SPB seems nice but very expensive, what others are there? I found (mFee but it requires Homescreen++ and has a lot of bugs. Anyone help me out?
Am I the only one that's annoyed by the issue that the 2x does not want to save the language settings you have chosen for it?.
When I first got it I selected English(UK) as the language. But everytime I put in a DK sim it automatically defaults to danish language. And I find that rather annoying, because if I wanted danish I would have selected Danish from the start.
But is there a way to basically tell the phone to STAY English and only switch language if I tell it to, or does a hard reset?. I could on my HTC and it didn't change even if i changed SIM.
Please tell me that LG hasn't been so damn daft as to not make it able to its users to "lock" the language.

If you install the attached does it make you selection stick?
I'm not sure it will survive a sim change though...
Well what I need is for the phone to actually keep its language setting regardless of what kind of SIM i insert in it. Ie I have selected English UK, then I want the phone to use that language, and not just automatically switch to danish when I insert another danish sim.

Yes, you were clear in your first post.
Does the tool I provided work?

I haven't had to chance to test it yet. But the problem is not that it changes language on reboot.
Its when I am changing SIM's I am hving the issue, and you said yourself that it might not work when changing SIM's.
But I will give it a test in a short bit.
If you change your sim, don't you have to set up all your accounts again anyway?
I don't. I have changed SIM's 3-4 times in my HTC Desire when I still had it and it retained all the information. Even the language setting was retained when I moved the SIM.
Only the LG won't do that, but hopefully the App you linked might fix that.
Hi!
I have problems with ROM version 1.69.401.01 - and its descendants (e.g.: Custom ROM by ansar) - that it displays my operator text and than adds five "y"s at the end. If I flash other ROM this is displayed correctly. No update has effect on this.
Real OP name is "T-Mobile H" and it is displayed as "T-Mobile Hyyyyy".
Can anyone give me some info on this? How the name is determined or is there a way to customize it?
Thank you,
Cina.
Same here, got "PLAYyyyyyyyyy" and "ORANGEyyyyyyyy"
Anyone? Must be a stack problem...
change the System Locale to US

No change.
Did you change the right value? The last two should be set to English (United States). Reboot the phone afterwards

My bad. You were right. I've just changed the locale (second option) not the last two. It works. If I change back everything to Hungarian it gives back all my y's. I wonder if it is based on a registry entry or similar...
Thanks anyway,
Cina.
just leave it like this , I couldn´t find any difference between these settings that should have dramatic impact on the phone.
Hi guys!
I have the S3 LTE (GT-I9305) and it's on Android 4.1.2 Build Number JZO54K.I9305XXBLL5
Now I don't remember how the phone behaved earlier (before the last updates), but my issue is this: I have set as input languages English, German and Serbian. But whenever I reset the phone (or turn it off and on) - and wanna write something, all languages dissapear from the keyboard and there is only english left. BUT - when I go to the keyboard settings, under "input language" all the languages I want are checked, and the phone then says "updating" and "no languages added" (or something), and when I go back to writing, all languages are there... until I reset the phone and have to do it all again... Does anybody know anything about the issue? And yes, I am using the Samsung keyboard.
Thanks!
Jupp same here...English and German, same Samsung Stock rom and same behaviour...ie after boot no add. languages...click options > input languages and then a little message appears "updated" and back out and I can change the languages via the spacebar...strange didn't actually notice until you told me...
Dont hate me for this.
My first post here and it's for the reson that i need help with my Ativ s neo i think it's called.
I have a prototype or a non production modell that seems to be unlocked and has diagnosis app on it.
Is there a way to flash this one to basic wp8?
You might wonder why? because i cant change the language on it to Swedish, it's with English (United States) and there is no way to change it,
very hard to write sms in Swedish without Ö, Ä, Å on the phone.
I have tried to put the prewiew for developers app on it but with no success uppdating it to wp8,1.
If i restart the phone the volume goes to 30.
When i start the phone it says factory mode.
Sorry for my English but i'm a Swede, at least i'm trying. :laugh:
First of all, how'd you even get a not-for-sale device?
Second, don't waste its potential by flashing a stock ROM; those things are very handy to use hacker-types!
OK, with that said: you can get accents and diacritics (including all three of the ones you listed, plus many more) by tapping-and-holding on a given letter. There are seven options each just for A and O, which should cover everything you need.
Thank's for the info GoodDayToDie.
I got it as a gift from a friend.
Is there any possibility that-WOLF-'s fake rom with CSC would work on my device?
Reason!
I cant uppdate to wp8,1 so i'm stuck on wp8.
APN settings is no go either with my device.
like the phone and i want to use it.
