Hi,
I live in Finland but I will be in Switzerland for a while. I found out that I could get the phone quite a lot cheaper from here.
I have never owned an Android phone before. I am interested in the localisation this phone (might) have, ie. how easy it is to change for example the keyboards to support the Scandinavian alphabet. What about the UI in general? Is there some other things that should be taken into account?
Thanks for your answers.

no that wouldnt be a problem, if the phone don't have the Finnish language you could install morelocale2 found on the market
or probably pretty soon flash it with a Finnish software.
but since i 90% of the time buy my phones here in Sweden from Swedish retailers i haven't used the method myself

Search for Samsung Galaxy S 2. Languages on YouTube. The video from samsungmobilerdom.
SGS2 has suomi.
I'm pretty sure that all Android 2.3 phones allow you to select from any of the available languages upon set up.
I've searched the internet far and wide as well as the forums here for an answer to this question but all of the threads I turned up were pre 2009, 2010 etc. A lot has changed since then.
I need to know how to install 'FINNISH' language on my wife's GT-I9001 (Galaxy S Plus)
She really needs it. I have rooted 2.3.4. From this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1260707
It doesn't come with Finnish but it stupidly comes with Estonian (wtf for? lol)
Anyway sorry if this has been discussed somewhere else but I really did try to look around before posting. It's really so important that I get this input language.
Thanks for helping a noob out!

There is a Korean rom somewhere but I would guess it has Chinese and Japanese language. Possibly someone knows where those things are in the rom, and how to move them? An Arabic port was made.
I'm just imagining, but I don't know.

I want to buy HTC Desire X from UAE. It comes with Arabic Language Support. Does that mean, it will not have English Language Support and is there any way by which I can get English support on my phone?

Almost all devices have English language included by default. It is the international language for communication. I bought a DX which is english but it has almost all the common languages. So go ahead. But before you buy ask the store personal to show you a demo Desire X device. this way you can check...
Thanks for the info.

Hey all, looking into buying my wife a Lumia. She's Finnish, and therefore prefers Nokia phones, however, the last time she went to buy a Nokia, of the ones available at the time, none in the US had Finnish as a selectable language. She called Nokia Finland directly on this, and pretty much cursed them up a storm for half an hour about how a Finn, living in the US, can't get Finnish, on a phone made by a Finnish company. She was pretty pissed.
So, she got the iPhone, because it had Finnish as an option. It's not that she doesn't speak and understand English, she just wants her phone in her native language. That was 5 years ago.
Well, it's about time to upgrade again, and while we were looking at the iPhone again, I'm also looking at the Lumia's. Only problem is, I cannot find, anywhere, a list of the languages available in the standard AT&T US Firmwares. It's not published anywhere that I can find.
I have read that the selection is 'limited' and that Rogers has 'all of them, including polish', but that doesn't tell me which ones are in either.
Mainly, I would like to know if Finnish is available in the AT&T US Firmware, and if not, is it available in the Rogers? And how complicated is reflashing it from the former, to the latter. Never owned a windows phone before, but I'm not a stranger to jailbreaking iPhones or rooting/unlocking/etc Androids. Just haven't had hands on a windows phone yet.
If anyone has just a plain list of all the Languages available in the different firmwares, I think that would work out best for everyone. Barring that, if you have one of these phones, can you just post what languages are available in your version? Thanks
Just checked my ATT 920 and Finnish isn't listed. Sorry. Perhaps a call to Nokia to see if there is a language pack.

I see Suomi listed, on the Rogers Lumia 920, I believe that is Finnish. I believe the development area has flashing instructions.
How about Arabic, Is it available for both UI and keyboard input?

Thanks for the feedback Demon Fox. ( you're talking about att version right?)
I had the 900 and I sold it for that reason, No Arabic Keyboard input even after the so called 7.8 update( the UI not important for me ). Many people were talking about language packs but no actual "tutorial" or even a hint on how to extract or merge the language packs with a current WP OS.
