due to popular demand (my own really, hehe) and sanction from the man himself, here is a new thread dedicated specifically to Asukal's MUI projects for the Hermes, specifically the japanese X01HT. this is a spin-off of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284765 .
below, i've made a cliff-notes of sorts, with links to the various MUI related files within the original thread. the original files remain on that thread for the time being.

i'll try to keep this post up-to-date and either transfer the files or direct links to the files to this post, but for now, continue to refer back to that thread for nitty-gritty details. hope you all find this useful!
If I get some time in the next few weeks (50% chance), I will see if I can repackage some of Asukal's original CAB files to avoid requiring post-installation patches and to reduce the number of separate cab files (which would also reduce memory space required).
....if Asukal is OK with this...
Could you repack LetsJapanNo5 & IME31J_QVGA together?
Also, anybody have problems with MMSLite on WM6 ROMs?
PLS DONT INSTAL or USE on Xo1H <Toshiba Device>
this is not compatible for Toshiba or any other device with WM6.

hi, of curse i say OK you to repack as your want
(but i dont know SB&MS Axis power will say OK )
i think only one cab "Welcom_Darkside_R6.zip" was included
all patches, but cabs for securities,
and you can extract canbs with CAB manager (trial version is enough)
http://www.ocpsoftware.com
Good luck!
does this work with WM6? It would be great to have an English interface for the Japanese Rom I installed. It would just be much easier than following the guide to installing Jap. keyboard, language, mail, softbank settings, etc etc for the English version of WM6.
Asukal,
I tried Lets Japan with english WM6,
succesfully installed and working.
There is only one issue that I found after
installing Lets Japan on WM6, I can't sync my
Windows Live account via wifi anymore.
But after I remove Lets Japan,
my Windows Live can then sync again via
wifi.
The error stated that I don't have
access plan from my provider.
Wherein I think windows live can use
both data and wifi connection, or whichever
is available.
Is it because of the localization or are there
any reg mod needed to make it work and
have my windows live sync via wifi ?
Does anyone in here also encountered this issue.
Thanks
well, i never did relay back my experience with the english MUI setup, but i was able to successfully install it. actually, at first, darkside6 didn't work for me immediately after installing the cab. rather, what i had to do (as one post in the previous thread tipped me off) was to find the extracted individual cabs in the temporary files folder and install them separately. after that and a soft reset, things seemed to be installed fine. most menus were changed to english (with the exception of the menus in the Softbank mail program and some drop-down menus, and shortcuts in settings).
one thing i wasn't sure about though- well, actually two. first, for the clock. i changed it so it shows a 12 hour clock instead of a 24 hour clock... but there is no AM or PM following the time? is that how it displays on native english roms? second, i've heard some people say that to get rid of the english menus and revert back to japanese, you have to do a hard reset. does this mean that it's safe to uninstall the programs listed in the installed programs list related to the MUI? i'm not a fan of hardresetting, and would like to avoid screwing up my quite functional setup if it's not necessary. but if its just taking up unnecessary space...

(no exactly information what registry was tweaked)
Hello Asukal! I come to you again for help!
There are two things that I still have problems with while making English ROM Japanese friendly:
1º)I have Japanese I/O enabled, with "Roma/Kana" SIP by default (via SIP change of Sheult). But when I open a program, always "hiragana" write is default one, and I need to change to "romanji" (normal English input); but no I idea how to do it (><)
That isn't put "Keyboard" SIP for english input; it's Japanese input, but romanji by default. I hope I explain myself.
2º)[less important] Is there any way to make Pocket IE to work with Yahoo! Keitai (brose the Web pages of Yahoo! Keitai)
Thanks!
PD: After read this thread, I have two small questions (really less important; just curious):
a)LetsJapanNo6.zip: New CAB for make Softbank Hermes from JP to English without flash I suppose, no?
a1)Want does exactly do the Treo version?
b)You translate Softbank mail app to English, but only works in original ROMs because of certificates?
And the last one ... Any advance in MMS after MMS Lite? Last times I only checked WM6 Forum, and I think I lose many news form this forum.
Really thanks for all!!

Hello!
Two things:
-About IME, I know what you told me. What I asked you is different. It's have the Roma/Kana option by default (or any that let you know Japanese, instead of "Keyboard"). But you know it have 5 options (Hiragana, 2 Katakana and 2 Romanjis). By default is always Hiragana. I want to change to Romanji.
-About "@Lets Japan No6 ", thah makes your device a Japanese one (fonts+japanese imput), of a softbank one?
Bye!

Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!

Can someone help me to display Arabic font in text SMS. HTC has not developed ROM for that I guess.
download nd install mobidiv. its free. google it.
Actually not any mobidiv, search for Mobidiv 4.31 Pack 32.
Google that :
MOBiDIV_Arabizer_431_WM65_AR_TSD_2009Oct12.Cab
Didnt wanna Start a New Topic,
But i have the same problem running a Swedish Rom 1,48
I got a couple of arabic writing sms/mms ! none of them shows!
Dose that file MOBiDIV_Arabizer_431_WM65_AR_TSD_2009Oct12.Cab Fix my problem too ?
Dont wanna get bugs, and wanna be safe before i install it
Now i have tested this damn arab cab! and it messed upp my phone!
When u install it half the phone is in arabic and the other half in Swedish/english! in my case
when i tried to remove it the phone crashed and i could never start it again after several soft reset and etc!
So i had to do a Hard rest and lost every thing ..
So again is there any other way just to add arabic fonts the the SMS serction without making the hole phone in arabic languche ?
lol
you can change the setting to have English by it self and Arabic support without putting it all in Arabic
pres the "ض" in the setting and chose English with Arabic support

I came to the conclusion that the arabic rom doesnt work unless you change the whole interface into arabic, and there is no working english with arabic support cab.
solution for your problem
Hey guys,
I had the same problem with my HD2, and here is the solution to your problem:
download and install mobidiv arabizer 454, this is the latest version, and it works on most if not all ROMs. After you install it, half of your phone will be in arabic, and half in english as you've mentioned. to Fix that, go to your start menu on your phone, and go into arabware app. Under the control tab, select English with arabic enabled (control tab might sh.ow like this ????? before you do this step) but anyway, it is the second tab from the right. Do this and restart your phone. This should take care of everything except for the date. Go into the arabware app again, and under country tab, select english US, hit ok and restart again and you'll be all sit.
these 2 steps have to be done separately.
The only issue you MIGHT have with some ROMs after you do this, is reading/typing arabic text msgs or emails. This is not because mobidiv does not work, this will be because your ROM does not have arabic font in it. To get this fixed please do the following which I'll explain briefly and you can email me if you need more details:
go to the fonts folder on your PC, found under c:/ >> windows >> fonts.
copy the font Calibri and the fot Tahoma (I think thats what its called) and make a cab file for each one. Copy them onto the external memory on ur windows mobile phone, and install... and Arabic will work perfect.
This might seem like a long process but its pretty easy.
Good luck, and sorry for the super late reply Im not here very often,
I hope you guys get to see this

How do you make a .cab file.
Or is it possible that you can upload a ready made .cab file with these fonts as i am totally clueless of how to do this.
thank you.
Come on guys, It's just arabic !
Flash a fresh ROM (to get rid of Half/half thing & backward letters) and then Download and install those cabs from here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9543910&postcount=4
Install mobidiv first then the keyboard, you might want to look the post below me for SMS fix

Sorry i dont usually post questions unless ive exausted all other options and im usually pretty good at following direction and making things work.
Now ive already done all that before posting my question, i got the phone to have the arabic program which turned the phone to arabic until i switched it back to english with arabic enabled and country to us.
Now i can read arabic on my phone on some programs but sms are squares (already had the sms fix installed last). Also, when previewing my emails i see squares but when i open the email i can see the arabic. so im guessing my phone is missing system fonts that why i asked for them.
Ive managed to make it work before with another rom pretty easily, im using chucky rom and i read somewhere that if all previous downloads didnt work its probably the rom is missing the fonts.
any help is much appreciated i really like the chucky rom and would like to continue using it.

My friend, do you really need to input Chinese? This is amazing. I have installed Google Chinese Fonts which is very small but lack of the power to input but I think sufficient.
Here's another post that may be of help...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603551&highlight=chinese
One of the cab file that I've tried is the Baidu's Chinese Input method and it's a great tool for Chinese entry. It's developed by Baidu, a popular Chinese portal site.
Check out our review here: http://bit.ly/8LGf4H
Removing/Uninstall Baidu’s Chinese Input
Sorry to dig this out but...
Does anyone know how to uninstall or remove Baidu’s Chinese Input without the need to hard-reset?
:d我过来支持纯中文支持
I DO LOVE the way the input works. However due to some issue I wish to remove it and KIV first. but I can't find it in the remove program list.
So just checking does anyone have any idea on how to remove it as well as remove the baidu button on the bottom of the screen...

is very easy just go to windows folder and after startup u will delete a file named search and restart is done!
for Baidu Chinese IME, you should go to link:
ishouji.baidu.com/input/download.html
directly to download the version that's suitable for your cellphone model.
It currently support Windows Mobile and Symbian.

Chinese character help
Hi, (HD2 Newbie) I downloaded and installed all four cabs and the phone soft reset. The problem was when it reset, I got the white tmoblie screen that just hung there forever, even after many soft resets (tmous phone hd2). Should I not have installed all four cabs? Should I have done a soft reset after each install? I don't want to do another hard reset. Help?

ni hao !
how to mkae the phone read chinese ?
Dear all,
As I write I have a Lenovo ET960 sitting on my desk, which is lying there for the last 2 weeks as I am unable to figure out how to change its menu language from Chinese to English. My uncle who was never able to use it gave it to me after all these years. It has WM2003SE (I think!), although I am sure the experts here will know all about it. I am very keen on fixing this issue, the trouble is I am novice in this area.
I have done some background research, but I still need some help from all you guys here. I have the the following requests.
1) I understand that there is no way to change the language of this phone as the OS is hard-coded in the Chinese ROM. One way is to hack this Chinese ROM and change it to English using a HEX-editor. An alternate way would be to use a third-party software to change the language, however I could not find one for WM2003. Once I hack the ROM and make the necessary changes, I should, in principle be able to install an upgrade to WM2003 (which I also do not have with me!).
To hack the Chinese ROM in ET960 and solve this issue I would need to know two things:
(a) Where to locate the ROM in this pocket PC using my desktop PC (via a USB cable connection)?
(b) I need a reference ET960 ROM (ET980 ROM may also work!) in English to compare the values to change accordingly.
(c) Finally, an upgrade to WM2003/WM2003SE (the firmware upgrade d/l link) and the upgrade method.
Now the trouble is I have never flashed a ROM before, so I need to know the steps. In addition I would also need to know the steps to the upgrade process.
I have managed to download the following softwares/tools which I think will help in the process, but I dont want to start the process until I get some feedback from you guys here.
(1)The lenovo.zip file _ftp: / / ftp.roverbook.com / RoverPC /Lenovo_ET960/
and the (2) ET960update.exe from gsmforum.ru, which can be used as an update tool for both Lenevo ET960 and ET980. I have also managed to download the upgrade instructions, but only in Chinese!. This is where my research ends. Now I request you guys to help me with the missing links to convert my ppc into English.
Thanks,
Jay
This Thai review (use Google Chrome and translate it to English) states the following:
Languages: Support English, Simplified Chinese, Tranditional Chinese Input but can not display Traditional Chinese character.
The screenshots also show the phone is using English. It might be as simple as changing the system language in your MUI settings (in the registry: HKLM>MUI and change SysLang to 1033 Dec/0409 Hex...HKCU>MUI and change CurLang to 1033 Dec/0409 Hex).
Hi rete, Thanks for the reply. I have never edited the registry in a pda. Is there a special tool that I have to use for editing the registry? The ET960 I have with me has a interface similar to this _http:/ / video.pomoho.com/ent/762870.
As everything is in Chinese, I am unable to make head or tail of anything. Please guide me if possible. Cheers, Jay
I am getting back to my ET960 issue after a gap. I really want to make this device (which has a great design) usable, for which I will need to convert the user interface to English.
Rete, I made the registry changes you suggested but nothing changed. So I will need to to find an alternate solution.
The ET960 has WM2003SE (ROM version: S603 051229 which is not WWE). It displays all the system folders as well as some of the installed applications UIs in English. But most of it is in Chinese.
I installed an English localization software (Paragon Inc, LEng for WM6) which translated my ET960s interface completely to English. But, the ActiveSync stopped working and the system folders could not be accessed after the installation of LEng. This tells me that if I can replace the *.mui files from CHS to ENG in the ROM, I will get an English interface.
But the trouble is that I am new to all this and do not know where to start. So I request for some guidance.
The other option to make the device usable is to boot Android from a microSD card, but I could not find an Android version anywhere from my ET960 (which has similar hardware to MDA compact & Yakumo Omikron). Please advice.
Here's the Hardware ID Change we are looking for

1.) This Tutorial is on your own risk - you should know what you do and how to use gadgetbridge, there's everytime a chance to brick your Cor - keep that in mind!
2.) Install newest version of Gadgetbridge (there's also the apk in the folder)
3.) Make the Cor Discoverable (at MiFit settings) and Unpair it from MiFit
4.) Reset the Cor (go to settings -> last Icon (the yellow one) -> accept on the orange button -> last step hold the contact zone, now your band should be resettet)
5.) link it to Gadgetbridge -> you can check the HW ID (should be 0.12.5.6 -> chinese Version)
6.) now you have to flash the Mili_tempo_makece.fw
7.) after flash its possible that you have to flash the Mili_tempo.res too - the band will tell you
8.) We have to reset the Band again (this is the reset for the Hardware ID Change) -> go to settings -> last Icon (the yellow one) -> accept on the orange button -> last step hold the contact zone
9.) Delete the Cor from Gagdetbridge, after the reset we have to search for it again
10.) now the band should be already in english, link it to gagdetbridge and now you should see the new HW ID for International one: 0.12.6.1
11.) Link it to MiFit and you get the newest Firmware officially as International One :laugh:
If you want to go back to chinese version you have to repeat all steps except with the Mili_tempo_makecn.fw file!
To Activate The CallerID you simply change your telephone language to english, open mifit, activate caller id and change the language to your native language back - the CallerID stays on in the background

Apart from the emoticons, I also have issues with some characters. The Greek language includes accented / special characters. The COR always shows these special characters as "?". So, for example the name Mary, in Greek is written as " Μαρία" and on the COR it is shown as "Μαρ?α" (imagine "Maria" showing as "Mar?a", because the character "i" is accented). It's rather silly I think, because all they have to do is to include UTF support on their fonts / language settings. I have send them feedback with such a request like a dozen times, but they have not fixed this yet. I do know that people in other countries (that also use special characters) are facing the same issue with the COR.
Do you think that changing the font would fix this ? I do hope so !
EDITED to add:
I think what I'm referring to, is exactly the same issue as this one:

Hello,
I followed the step by step procedure, everything installed correctly.
Only that ID HW remains v0.12.5.6 and when I start the MiFit the firmware is updated and back in Chinese.
What can I do?
Thank you

Hey there !
Is there a procedure / guide regarding how we could replace the font file with a different one, to test if it would support the special characters of various languages?
Thanks in advance !

I have the same problem How did you solve it?
After mili tempo res update my cor is English, but i cant scroll menu, to reset the band. Any idea?
when i unpair the amazfit cor it goes to pairing screen and i cannot reset it as the guide says....why my cor is not able to run when its unpaired? thanks
Hi,
Does it work with firmware 1.2.7.22 ?
Just follow steps and you get your Amazfit Cor in English language.
I have problem on this step
8.) We have to reset the Band again (this is the reset for the Hardware ID Change) -> go to settings -> last Icon (the yellow one) -> accept on the orange button -> last step hold the contact zone
(You must reset Band before deleting from Gagdetbridge app. When you finish update Mili_tempo.rs wait that screen of band start on default screen. After that, navigate on steps in settings -> last Icon (the yellow one) -> accept on the orange button -> last step hold the contact zone.
If you can't scroll down on settings, or you can only scroll DnD options and STATUS, go in Gagdetbridge app, hamburger meni, settings, Amazfit Cor settings, Display items and select only STATUS and SETTINGS.
After few seconds you can scroll on settings, last icon. Run reset. Go to step 9)
9.) Delete the Cor from Gagdetbridge, after the reset we have to search for it again
(This is important! After deleting you must again do pairing with Gagdetbridge app.)
After pairing MiFit app, just delete the Cor from Gagdetbridge app.
I just forget to say thanks to OP! Finally I have English Band and Serbian phone language!
