[Solved] How to add language to blur rom?... - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As per subject really.
I'm looking to add a language to a rom I'm currently creating and would just like to know how its done please. I know its been done in wet dream and if the dev sees this could you please reply
I presume, looking at the framework-res.apk that it has a lot to do with the values-...-... directories
Thanks if anyone can help.
I'm using Bell 2.3.6 as my base and would like to add the English United Kingdom locale/language to it.

All sorted now, I worked it out.
If anyone needs to know, you have to decompile the APK's you want to add the language to and then add a values-en-rGB (for english/united kingdom language/locale) in the res dir in the apk and recompile.

[DEV] HowTo add languages to AOSP ROMs?

Answer on POST #3 by Enomther
Hi,
I'm the author of LeoFroYo, an android 2.2 ROM.
I'm currently trying to integrate read and write arabic support into it and would like to include additional languages into my ROM.
Note: this topic is not about arabic support, but about additional languages.
I know Enomther's TheOfficial has more locales than the stock AOSP.
So I opened this thread to:
Get help to include more languages into the Android system
Make a guide on HowTo do so
So here are my questions:
But how to I include new languages into the system?
Do I only add strings.xml into frameworks_base?
What files do I need?
Simple XML or do I need to madify Makefiles?
How to compile with new languages?
I want those added languages to be listed into the SetupWizard
I think it's Enomther who told me this requiered to change things in vendor/.
But don't know quite what to do nor how.
Thanks everyone to help this community
PS: I will update this first post when a solution/steps will be found so it will be a guide for devs
Am I the only one who's concerned about languages support?
maybe all are satistied with the stock languages
btw, I also want to know how

Yea that was me ...
1) Do not modify and/or add strings.xml to framework
2) Do not modify other xml or any Makefiles
3) Like any other compilation, type "make"
So here's the answer to your real question ...
What I was referring to previously is the need to create a device/htc/passion/(vendor-custom).mk file. To include more languages. (This is what I do)
However..........
Here's another method that may be clearer for you to implement the first go around ...
Apply this patch here ...
Code:
http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_build/commit/a5c3cb5e5bb243234815159bf63c95ad7327a7ca
Then ... make sure your buildspec.mk includes this line ...
Code:
TARGET_PRODUCT:=full_passion
That's it.

If I understand you correctly, you are taking files from the framework of one device and putting them into the framework of a different device?
If that's the case, you can't do that. Apks (even framework apks) rely heavily on things like resource ids, which very greatly from device to device, or from rom to rom.
Unfortunately Im nit sure how to do what you are seeking to do, just offering some advice on your apk compiling problem. Also, if I've completely misunderstood what you were doing, I apologize and disregard what I said.
In any case, post the compiling error your getting.

[Q] Where to find custom ROM with other languages??

Seems that people have done so for some of the languages and put the phone for sale online. Can anyone provide a download link if such a ROM really exist. Thanks a lot!
The have a rom with Arabic over in the Atrix forums...perhaps a port?
Sent from my Motorola Photon 4g
Question goes back to How to port another language?
Use apktool to decompile all /system/app/*.apk.
There will be folders values-ru(or br.. or other language,that already on phone)
You should take values folder(that en language) and copy it to values-ru(where ru - is your language).
Then you should decompile /system/framework/framework-res.apk
and translate like other's apk.
btw, don't forget to add values-ru-RU folder(for russian lang, for yours- use your short tag letters), that will add your language to settings, and you will may to choise it.
Good luck.
Thanks! I will give it a try.

Hi man, I'm facing same problem, I found csc folder in root of phone, but deleting default.xml does't change anything. Verizon removes other languages from system
i did it too, i don't remember the file name inside csc i think was default.xml as you mentioned, but did not change anything. and I'm not sure if they removed the other languages, are you sure the other languages has been removed?
