I saw a few posts asking about how to view/display Chinese or Asian languages in ICS Slim Rom.
I wanted to post in that thread but I was not allowed to since I am a new member.
Anyway, here is how I solved the issue. Do the following BEFORE you flash the ICS Slim ROM:
1. Find another ROM which can display Chinese or other Asian languages.
2. Unzip that rom file, and extract the file "DroidSansFallback.ttf" in the /systems/fonts directory in that zip file.
3. Replace the original DroidSansFallback.ttf files with this extracted DroidSansFallback.ttf file in the /systems/fonts directory of the zip file of the ICS Slim Rom.
Note: The original DroidSansFallback.ttf in ICS Slim Rom is about 700kB in size, where as the one I found from another custom rom that supports Chinese is about 5.3MB.
4. Flash ICS Slim zip file with the replaced DroidSansFallback.ttf.
With this, i can view Chinese and Japanese in ICS Slim Rom.
To input Chinese, you just need to install chinese ime.
Did the same trick on Samsung Galaxy S II, and it worked .
or you can just install the additional fonts found under add-ons in the pre-installed app "updateme"

Thanks for this thread. I grabbed a 5.05mb DroidSansFallback.ttf I had lying around, used Root Browser Lite to manually delete the 703kb file in system/fonts and replaced it with the 5.05mb file. A reboot and the Asian characters showed up ok.
Good!
Great Job!!! :good::good::good: I just want that rom but there is no support for Chinese.

Im looking for the original keyboard for the amaze, using bulletproof 2.4.1, and cant use the keyboard with the arrows. tried searching and couldnt find it.
What do you mean you searched? All you had to do was download another Sense 3.0 ROM and go to the /system/app/ folder and look for HTC_IME.apk and then push it to see if it worked/had no arrows.
Anyway...
This one works, it is the one I'm using, it is from NRGZ's Energy ROM just for your future reference.

Not too sure on this one since I only speak and use English, so I think the ROM you are using has to support Mandarin/Cantonese (last time I checked Chinese isn't a language).
So question one: Does your current ROM support Mandarin/Cantonese?
If not find a ROM that does, if it does proceed to question two.
Question two: Did the ROM you took the HTC_IME.apk from, does that ROM support Mandarin/Cantonese?
If yes then I have no idea. If no find a ROM that does and try to use that HTC_IME.apk
That is the extent of my help.
like i sad i need stock samsung jellybean xxldb system apps could anyone can help me about it ?
Hi,
Download the stock ROM and extract the apps...: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
Or here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704185
No?
Why do you need all the system apps? Or maybe just some of these?
thnx for reply i need them for a great domination theme and my rom its modified from indie i use omega theme needs stock apps thats why how can i extract them from the firmware version? i already have that
Re,
Ah ok.
Download the ROM from the second link I posted (stock ROM odexed or deodexed) then open the .zip with Winrar for example and go to system/app inside the .zip... You'll see all the system apps and just extract them... All these system apps are stock.
Humm, you have already a stock ROM? Or I don't understand?
i just have the official firmware odin flashable not cwm..just downloaded like you sad i am on it thanks again man..
Yes, so download the stock ROM zip from my second link, it's here: http://wanamlite.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=7388 (credits to Wanam).
It's what you need: a fully stock ROM but in zip file so you can extract what you want. All is stock in term of appearance (I mean no themed).
Good luck for your theme
EDIT: ok, you're good to go (with the deodexed one) and you're welcome
welcome ,

I don't warranty this, use at your risk
Best way is to find stock keyboard in forum & install or flash it.
2nd solution :
Grab "Latin ime " from a deodexed rom (root/system /app / Latin ime. Apk )
#if Latin ime.odex exist so rom is odexed, you must deodex it or try another rom
Install extracted .apk like normal app.
->If you wanna make it as a system app so you must clear dalvik cache too.(if any problems pm me, cause there are more important things that u must know)

hello,
can you point me to the right direction?
i extracted latinime.apk and touchpal.apk from a stock rom (android 2.2.1 for Huawei U8150) both with an odex file, tried to:
- install touchpal (the keyboard i want) as a normal apk with no luck
- copy it to /system/app then reboot, no luck,
- universal deodexer v3 to deodex the apk, something went wrong 'cause i got some "0 files were copied" messages from it so... no luck
can you tell me what am not doing right? i dont want the market version of TouchPal since it doesn't has the 12-key layout, so i want to extract this stock rom keyboard

You copy touchpal.apk and touchpal.odex to system/app and set the permissions to 644 (rw-r-r). There may be additional files you may need to get language settings etc, which could be in system/usr and even maybe a lib or two in system/lib. But try it as i said first

Done
- files copied to /system/app (using total commander with root permission)
- permissions changed to 644 using a terminal emulator (in the phone)
- rebooted
Result:
- not showing yet under the language & keyboard settings
- not listed as an avaible keyboard on text boxes (when you hold the finger over and input method option shows)
What's the next step?

Chances are an android version 2.2 keyboard won't work on an ICS rom (I assume it's ICS). Maybe they've got a keyboard replacement in the forum for your phone

Yes, but this section you're posting in now is for the Sony X10Mini and X10MiniPro
If I get right what you mean:
try flashing this

you may install languages from here

I have ported MIUI V5 to my phone but the default keyboard is all in chinese.
I've tried deleting the APK from system/apps and adding another keyboard APK before zipping and flashing but that results in having no keyboard at all.
I am using MUIU too. But the keyboard is English. Were you able to select the right language when you installed your ROM?

First you have to decompile thekeyboard.apk you want to use for rom some contains LIB files you have to copy them into lib folder of rom
then recompile the app , sign and put into system\app

Since using new method with mono 2,I noticed my existing font list in settings display fonts no longer works. It's all good though and thank you.
Download link?
I think you need to edit and add the download link, maybe while switching to XenForo the download button went missing.
download link is missing... thanks for the update! looking forward to getting it.

On some devices, samsung cloud doesn't backup font settings. I couldn't tell on what basis it omits.
Just wondering, does this app have the ability to pack multiple font ttf files into one package?
Still, thanks for your sharing!! xoxo
