[Q] HD2 not in English ! - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just a quick question, a friend ended up with an HD2 and it looks as id it's in Danish or Norwegian....
I tried a hard reset, but no mention of setting Language's etc
Is there an easy way to change the handset to English ?
I dabble with the odd Iphone and Android handset's, but it's the first Windows phone I really have had a look at...
For 2 years old, it certainly looks good...
Thanks

WM (I'm assuming your friend's Leo is Windows Mobile 6.5, because you are posting here) has not the option for changing languages.
You always can flash an english ROM on it (stock or custom).

Swedish Rom

What are the odds anyone will actually come out with a Swedish language Rom?
My guess is about 2.34 %
Our languages are quite small, but you will probably be the first to get it if we get a Scandinavian version.
I think that most M1000 users are so advanced, that they would prefere English anyway. I do, because some translations are confusing - and the defacto standard on the IT market is English.
It would be quite different for a Nokia 3100 phone aimed at the budget end of the consumer market.
Anyway, I am ready to install the Orange ROM labled DK released today, so I may get a Danish version soon..

Let me know how the Danish version works; I can pretty much read most of the Danish I encounter or at least figure it out, so I'd be willing to change to that... keeping the phone in another language keeps my friends when I'm the States from playing with it and ruining stuff.
Tack så mycket!

if it's easier access to ae oe and aa you want
then some guy from Norway make a custom keyboard add-on
which makes your keyboard (software keyboard ) into Scandinavian
it let you choose between Danish, Norwegian and Swedish
but of cause that don?t fix the issues that the text recognition cant recognise them and dictionary don?t have Scandinavian words
personaly i really hate translations and pretty much stay with english os's and programs
The 'Danish' ROM is in English as the original Orange M1000 ROM.
Only Danish content appear to be the default GPRS setting, pointing to a danish gateway.
Scandinavian keyboard is easy, this free utility will give you what you need:

[Q] Adding UI Language to Android.

Hi everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to read my thread, and sorry in advance for writing so much. Now I have searched EVERYWHERE, for about 3-4 hours now, with about 200 tabs, and still have found nothing. What I really want is to be able to ADD (sorry about capitalization, just everywhere I look it's always is change, not add) UI language (like the ones in Settings>Language & keyboard>Select language), not adding a keyboard as I already have done that, but a language itself, like Spain Spanish. I have a HTC EVO 3D running Android 2.3.4, now this phone originated in China, so when I do go to the settings and check the languages, there are two languages in Chinese characters, and one in English (Hong Kong SAR China), so a total of three, now when I look at people who bought their phones from other places have so many languages like English, German, Italian and French, but I only have two, I tried using MoreLocale 2, but all it does it replace not add, and when I change the language it returns to default (so I changed the Hong Kong English to NZ English via morelocale, as I am in NZ, and it did change it, but when I changed the language from NZ English to one of the Chinese ones, and then back to English, via the settings menu, it returned to Hong Kong English), I am not too worried about that problem, but all I want to do is add UI languages, would prefer without rooting, but if I MUST, then I am up for it. So is there a way of doing so, if there is, could you PLEASE tell me, I would SOOOO GRATEFUL.
Thank you again and I hope you enjoy your day
I'd like to know this as well.
Running android on my HTCHD2 (does the exact firmware matter?)
and I would like very much so to alter the UI language to Thai.
I realize Thai is not a very common language but my family there just can't read english, especially the kids. I tried some locale changers like Morelocale 2 and it helps make alot of things into Thai, but not the most important thing I need, the UI such as settings and menus. All of that is still in english.
I tried to see if i can download some sort of patch or rom but come up with nothing. So now I'm just gonna bite the bullet and would like to do it myself. Is there a way to just add in or perhaps alter one of the other languages(i'm not gonna use Korean for example) so I can actually make it all into Thai myself?
