Layouts and translation - Localization

Hey,
I recently released my first app and i want to translate it to more languages, but one of my main concerns is about the layout width and support for languages with bigger words like german, as i don't want to produce uglier results for other languages.
Are there any tips to deal with this? would someone help me translate my app? (few words actually)
My app:

How to: Change TF3D Cities language from English to others?

Hi everyone,
Just spend almost entire day in the forum searching for answers. Quite a fruitful day as I have managed to gain more understanding from the experts here on rom cooking, tweaking and language changing.
But up til now, there is only one thing that bothers me.
It is about the weather tab in the TF3D. Apart from this, all the rest are showing a different language specified by me (Chinese). Only the cities names are in English.
Which files should I alter to translate the cities names to Chinese or any other preferred language?
(TF3D Config doesn't work on this & basically my entire rom have been translated to chinese, other than this part)
Please kindly advice.
Thank you!
Ruffie

Perhaps will Chinese be supported (by editing your database with chinese caracters ?).

[Q] Install extra language on WP8

Hello,
I am planning on buying a HTC 8X with Windows Phone 8. As a previous Windows Phone 7.8 user (I own the HTC Trophy), I have a question about the display and keyboard language on my new phone.
My question is, if the device I buy is the German Vodafone version can I add the Greek language (my native) even if it is not listed in the languages list?
Another question is, if there is no way to add Greek language as the display language, is there a way to add just the greek keyboard so that I can write greek?
Thank you in advance
all WP8 devices have all supported languages in WP8... no need and no possible to add additional language...

on unlocked/custom ROM Wp7 with Native Keyboard maybe?
with WP8 only in settings you can add available keyboards
My unlocked german Lumia 920 allows me to install the greek keyboard under Settings / Keyboard
As for UI language I can't tell as they decided to write language names in the UI selection in the countries letters and there's quite some that I can't read. How would you write "Greek" in greek?

Well, Greece in Greek is 'Ελλάδα' (Hellada) or sometimes 'Ἑλλάς' (Hellas).
Perhaps somebody can inform me if it's possible to install extra languages but retain a certain (fixed) keyboard lay-out.
That is to say, I tend to converse in English, Dutch and German all the time and sometimes in French. I would like to be able to install these dictionaries and use the languages interchangeably, but keeping all the same QWERTY-layout all the time.
In other words: when I write something in German, I want the keyboard to retain the US-style QWERTY-layout that in standard in the Netherlands, rather than the QWERTZ-layout that is standard in the German-speaking countries. Similarly, the keyboard shouldn't switch to AZERTY when writing something in French.
This piece of information I haven't been able to find out from the documentation on-line. Because utilities such as Swype and especially SwiftKey do not exist for Windows Phone (yet?) it's something I'd like to know before I make the plunge.

Request English translation of QQMusic or Kugou Music

I have tried doing it myself with resOverloader and AndroTraducter. Doesn't help that the strings.xml where translated with the Google Translate web app. The most I've gotten is changing the title of the app. Would anybody be interested in translating one or both of these? Or would anybody know if they've been translated already (recently, there is a dinosaur aged QQMusic translation out there).
Thx for reading

Hi.
I ask for help in translating Android app into French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish.
It's very simple, just 120 words.
The application is completely free, without ads.
"ABC for Kids" is a very simple game that teaches young kids the order of letters in the English alphabet.

(Sorry, I'm not allowed to insert links)
Text for translation is uploaded to ranslate.google.com
I will send invitations to e-mail.
Each assistant will be listed in the application in the "Credits" menu and in the app's description on Google Play.
Thanks.
You should try machine translation first. Then let people review the results for mistakes(maybe reddit could help). This seems like a more effective solution in my eyes.
