hi guys,
i need some help.
i've had to flash uk rom/fastboot onto my phone.
however in language/keyboard it does not have australia.
i need this as some of my apps run off these settings eg. hey tell app inputs country code based on language/keyboard set and there is no way around it even if i manually put in country code it still adds on the default language/keyboard country code.
is there any way of adding english australia on?
what's worse is i've tried flashing stock rom, doing asia recovery. that all works well and i can get english australia as an option but i can't do OTA update. i get an error.. a status 7 error. (i've posted this in another thread in development section).
any help would be great please!
=(
Download morelocale2 from the market and set the region to EN.AU. It's a bit of a lifesaver at times.

thanks. ill have a look at that.
so it changes my default language/keyboard to Aus in the settings?
just confirming as that's what i need.
thanks. =)
If it's possible, then yes, it'll do it. Morelocale is utility to set, well, the system locale to any country you like, which - as you've experienced - is useful when your phone or firmware doesn't explicitly include yours.
In my case, I use it because the UK locale naturally sets the default currency symbol to the pound, and I need the dollar sign. Setting the locale to EN NZ effectively gives me the UK language settings I need with the currency symbol I need, so I'd wager it'll do the same for you.
It's free and doesn't need root access, so you can't go too far wrong.

Is it possible to change the region to USA to get English? The best that I can do is get Singapore English which is off some. Bought from vendor on Amazon and he was clueless where it was from.
If the language isn't there, its not there. The region is set in the ROM, so there is no way to change it, without being able to flash a new ROM. So your best hope is for the devs here to achieve S-Off and root, and then you can load any ROM on the Flyer you want.
Actually try this app, Localeswitch (yes with an e in between) I'm amazed not many people know about it!!

Have you actually tried it, and does it work? Meaning, does it allow display of languages not normally selectable on your device? The app description doesn't say much about what it actually does. If the language is not already in the ROM, I don't think this app is going to magically make it appear. But the question then is, are the languages already in the ROM, but just not normally selectable from Sense (hidden)?
It is possible.
Search Android Market for an App called "Set US". Install the App and Run it. The App will seem to do nothing for you but it resets the locale on your Flyer to US locale.
If your Flyer has a 3G SIM slot for insert the a T-mobile USA SIM that works before you perform the steps above as HTC uses SIM identity to determine the region of operation your HTC Flyer in parts.
Hence, if you a USA SIM inserted, your HTC Flyer default to showing prices in the market in US $. If you use a UK SIM, you will see it in British pounds, etc.
Hope that helps.
In a few months time I'll be working in Taiwan for a year. I want to learn and type Chinese. My baseband is i9300xxlh1 and this is bought unlocked in UK. I had a look at my phone at the moment and it doesn't have Chinese inputs.
If I use Odin to flash the firmware to the Chinese one, would it actually break my phone? Or is there any way that would allow me to enable or install the Chinese language input? I tread through the forums and it sounds like I might be able to enable it just by rooting the phone and editing the language settings without flashing it.
Many thanks!
Just look at the Play Store for a free keyboard solution with chin support
It´s the easiest way i think
Yes, the firmwares are fully interchangeable between i9300/i9300t phones regardless of country and origin.
However as said installing a input method might be the far easiest way.
Alternatively you can ask if anybody could share the samsung-official keyboard apk for that location so you can install it.

I tried installing other input methods from play store but they are terrible. It allows you to type Chinese but the english word suggestion is a nightmare to use and you can't switch to the default samsung keyboard easily so I wanted to try the official keyboard apk. I'll google around and see if I can find the official language pack

If it's not under the normal language settings, I'd contact your phone operator/the place where you bought it. Given that it's Spanish you shouldn't be the only one with this problem.
EDIT: actually, I just googled a bit and apparently the really ship it without Spanish? If that really is the case and you absolutely need the phone in Spanish you might need to root it and use another rom (phone-software). Check the S3 forums on xda, ask around there what other people did to solve the issue.
Thanks
Thanks. Yeah. It sucks that most Samsung phones in Canada only have 3/4 language choices.

You have to change the region and language settings of your phone to US.
Then change the region settings in Google to US and language to US.
Then you can activate voice match in the Google assistant. And use Oké Google.....
did that a million times but it won't stick and jumps to Australia for what so od reason and voice match will be greyed out
Good morning everyone!
I have downloaded Douyin (Chinese version of TikTok) and want to use it here in the US, however, it does not let me change the language to English. I want to find a way to give me this option. I am using the most recent version and everything. I have tested a few things with my Chinese friends that are in China and found the following:
- Using my app in the US, logging into their Chinese made accounts, the lose the language selection option in the settings. While using the app in China, they are provided the ability to choose the language they would like.
- My account in the US does not give me this option at all.
- Using a VPN on Android, selecting Hong Kong does not change the setting either.
If you wanted to test and try it for yourself, here is the website to download the app: https://www.douyin.com/
Any other ideas on what I might try to trick the app into allowing me to use that feature? I am using a stock Samsun Galaxy S9+ on the latest AT&T version of the OS. Any help is greatly appreciated!
I was really hoping to get some help here. Or maybe some direction if anyone else has any ideas?
