These days I'm running Android 4.1.2 of omega-based stock Samsung rom.
I use Hebrew as my language in the device and all apps appear indeed in Hebrew.
For some reason, inside the Google Maps app, the menu is in Hebrew but the map itself is displayed in English and the navigation is in English as well.
In the past in other roms I used to have hebrew street names and navigation.
Does anyone have an idea why the app is half English-half Hebrew?
Guess would be that you don't have a Hebrew stuck rom but a custom rom .

Hi
I have tablet with android 3.1. When I have the table all in english everything is fine. But when I switch it into my language (czech), some of the description or names of the app in market got translated into my language (and the translation is very very bad)
I would like to switch this automatic feature off, so I will always see the text in original language (eg English).
It happens within different version of market
I tried to find it, but the only thing I found
http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/developer/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=113469
from this I can see that developer can allow this automatic translation for his app.
But I want to disable it from user perspective.
Thanks.
Hi all,
i have a general problem with android: how can i set up a locale that's different from the UI language?
in other systems (windows on PC, or symbian on phones), you can set up a locale (which determines how time, date, currency, etc. is displayed) and a language. in android it seems that the two settings are connected, so language also determines the locale. i live in slovakia, so obviously i want a slovak locale, but i also want an english ui. if i set the english language, i have weeks starting with sunday in calendar, and dates separated by slash instead of a dot.
i find this really annoying. is there any way to overcome this limitation? i was using the stock Sony Ericcson firmware as well as Cyanogenmod, so i assume the issue is not rom connected.
Thanks
Good question. I am also interested in the answer.
My granddad recently purchased a 9" android tablet from china, for him it really hasn't paid off. He loved being able to sit down anywhere and just browse the web, play some little games, check emails and view documents for his various charity groups. But the device was slow, poor screen resolution and backlighting and awful at locking onto a WiFi signal.
So this week he bought a galaxy tab 10. He has been much happier with this device and decided to buy a Bluetooth keyboard at the same time.
However he didn't check the layout before purchasing and has accidently bought a US layout keyboard in the UK. Otherwise the keyboard is fine. It doesn't look flash and is made of plastic but it works and you can actually type quite nicely on it, does the job.
Our problem is that when we set the system language on the galaxy tab to English UK shift 2 returns a " symbol as is normal for UK keyboards but the keyboard is a US keyboard and it is marked as @. Setting the system language to English US fixes that. But we're British and use UK English. So far he has been using it this way anyway but it has been annoying him, setting the system language to English US annoyed him more.
Is there a way to set android to use a US layout keyboard but still use a UK system language?
He doesn't want to buy a new keyboard and seems happy enough to live with the US one but would still like the symbols to match up.
I think your solution is External Keybord Helper.
EDIT: It can setup different layout for your external keyboard including different language. And most probably you can manually set up the keyboard layout. First try the demo version if it works than get the pro one.

I know this topic has been covered pretty extensively, so I'm sorry to bring it up again, but I'm still having problems. I am trying to use a custom aosp keyboard stripped from a galaxy s 4.3 custom ROM, but I can't get the gesture typing to function on my rooted 4.1.2 Kyocera torque. This keyboard is functioning on my galaxy s (epic). I copied the apk file and dictionary lib file directly from the epic to my new phone. I also replaced the dictionary file with a variety of Google dictionary files and renamed them to all the varieties of "unbundled" and "Google". I bundled the dictionary into the apk and copied it directly, installed as a system and user app. While the word correction and prediction works, gesture typing causes a force crash. If I remember correctly, the gesture typing wouldn't work on my epic until I instead the correct dictionary provider app. However, I uninstalled it go check and the keyboard still works. I also changed the manifest and installed it on my torque, and it made no difference. Does somebody who knows more than I do have any idea how I could get gesture typing to work?
Thanks,
Allan
