Hey guys!
I am currently using a Verizon Fascinate. I can use Chinese input method downloaded through the Market but I can not send it through text msg. All of friends who have smartphones (ones can decode chinese characters) are not able to read the msg they receive from me (just bunch of crap lol).
Just flashed with my phone with Superclean 2.6 and it works great.
I wonder if there is any rom that suport Chinese internally.
Thank you very much.
Try miui, it seems to be laced with chinese characters

Would you like to tell me which one of it is the right version? I could not see the page for Fascinate in the main page of MIUI forum.
Is the MIUI rom you are using support Chinese?
Thanks.
The Fascinate port of MIUI is here (it's not official). Mind you, it's a very alpha version, with loads of things not working. Also, are you sure that (verizon's) SMS even supports non-ascii characters? I would actually be rather surprised if it did.
There's a bunch of keyboard app's you can download from the marketplace. The one that I use is Smart keyboard, and you have to download the chinese dictionary separately.

Just flashed it. Msg in Chinese is not working. The thing is that I can reveive Chinese msg fine (from my friends with different carrier of course, like AT&T so I thought Verizon starting to suport non-ascii characters with the release of IPhone 4). But anyways, Thank you very much.

Hi!
This morning I flashed my Atrix 4G with U4_2.1.1 SBF and then installed GreyBlur 2.1. So far, great experience... except when I realised that all SMS I sent using Unicode (Chinese or French characters) were stripped down from all the non ASCII chars!
I can receive and type unicode... so what's going on?
Thanks for your help!

If its anything like "emoji" I use on Handcent, the other person receiving the message has to have it installed as well. For example, if you have emoji plugin installed you will receive the emoji, if not you will receive gibberish. I know anyone with an iPhone can get the emoji w/o plugin.
Thanks
Unfortunately, I am using the stock SMS application, hasn't gotten around to try things like Handcet yet... It used to work with the original ROM (French Orange), not sure if the culprit is 2.1.1 or GreyBlur.
I seem to remember there was a setting for the charset used in SMS, but I can't seem to find it anymore.

Japanese texts sent from SGSII and "readable" on other devices (iphone4 for example)
Hi all,
So here is my problem. I'm running on Cognition 1.5 and since I do not have japanese nor french on this ROM I decided to download smart keyboard.
However most of my japanese friends use devices such as iphones (yeah nobody is perfect ) and when I try to send them texts, they see "question marks" whereas I can read perfectly the texts they send me in japanese.
Since Iphone has japanese in native language and after having tested different applications other than smart keyboard, it is highly likely that the "problem" is coming from my system.
So I had a look at the thread listing official firmwares.
And it seems that, as it is said in the thread, CSC DOES have nothing to do with the keyboards available (tried out of despair to flash the ones including DCM )
It indeed added japanese in the language settings, but did not add the japanese keyboard.
However I was wondering if texts typed via a third-party app like "smart keyboard" would be readable on other devices as long as "Japanese" is available in "language settings" and, if necessary, if I select it.
Thanks.
PS : I am sorry to create another thread about this issue, but all threads about this issue are obviously dead/unanswered and my problem is slightly different than the ones adressed in those threads.
I need Arabic working on the Photon. Now we are rooted, unlocked, and have the full stock source. Who can take up the task of fixing Arabic?
Have you tried to download it from the market? I think the gingerbread keyboard supports a quite a few languages. Not sure if Arabic is one of them. But that's an idea.
It's not an issue of keyboard. The keyboard is fine. But the Photon, like every other Android device sold in the US, comes with a ROM that prints arabic characters disconnected and in their standard form. To Arabic readers/writers, it is almost impossible to read.
People in the dev forums have been making Arabic roms (and CM also supports Arabic) but the Photon has no such roms available.
It's a world phone that ironically can't display world languages.
Well once CM7 is released I am sure that issue will be fixed then.

I'm sorry to be annoying, but isn't there anyone that can patch the Arabic on the stock rom? It doesn't seem that reasonable that the dev community can't take this on without CM7.
Let me rephrase the question. Those that have the Alien and Star Wars builds.... have you found that Arabic is fixed?
(SOLVED) Arabic Working using CM7 Rom from cybik
Hi all,
I am just reporting that I got the Arabic working using the CM7 Rom from Cybik. It's working with GSM so can be used in the Middle East if needed. Arabic in all apps is fixed in CM7, Gmail, Messaging, Skype, etc.
However, I would like to use Arabic in one of the more stable ROMs (even though CM7 is awesome) because it seems this ROM saps battery life like a MoPho.
Will try Alien, Star Wars, and Homebase to see if any fix Arabic. None of the authors of those ROMs mention fixing Arabic so unfortunately I need to try them all.
Hd mini arabic Rom
dear anoob4eva
i hope to get ur links if u plz
Thank u
Best regards
I have currently installed Smart Keyboard Pro and have the English and Arabic languages enabled for this keyboard. When I type in Arabic the words are disconnected. For example when I mean to type something like this مرحبا it comes out like this م رح ب ا all the letters are disconnected.
Is there a solution for this? My Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc supports the Arabic language correctly I was hoping this would as well. Also if it matters I am using the GSM Rogers version.
Thank you for your help.
Here in middle east, the rom is modified to be compatible with Arabic and Persian. You may want to find and download the middle eastern rom. That works perfectly fine for me.
Why couldn't Motorola just give us an option? That is pretty stupid of them. Is there any file or application I can use to give me the same functionality? I don't want a to put a new rom on my phone just yet.
Motorola doesn't give a f*ck about localization in android. We as Turkish have the exact problem when it comes to native language support. I even started a thread in official motorola supportforums, their moderators just ignored our concerns and didn't even care to give an answer.

The thing that I find strange is that they can clearly do it if its available in the Middle-eastern regions. Why not just put the option in the other models as well.
I heard android 4.0 has native support for Arabic and other RTL languages, Could it be supported then?
I just bought the Rogers RAZR and now I'm debating grabbing the Galaxy Nexus instead.
Easy
Root your razr and get the arabic room by recovery

And japanese characters shows up scrambled. I have tried to find a similar thread but to no avail. Japanese input is no problem, I've got apps for that. The problem is getting the japanese characters to show up properly.
I am aware that the current ROM I am using is a lite-version but, if there is any way to change this myself I'd be more than happy. I regularly chat with japanese people on gtalk so it would help tremendously
I used MiniCM7 before, and japanese characters showed up properly, however I quickly got tired of the rom being quite sluggish.
It's because I replaced droidsansfallback.ttf with a smaller version that doesn't contain chinese/japanese characters as it seems, which I did in a silly attempt to get the rom.zip as small as possible (less than 60MB now)
Just copy that file from an other rom.
