(HELP) Changing Language Name - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good day, @xda. Please could anyone assist me. I need to change the name of some languages in my rom. I'm adding a new language in the rom though I dont know how to do that. So I thought of modifying an existing language. I have done the modifications. However I dont know where to change the language name from. I've checked the settings.apk, settingsprovider.apk, aqnd InputDevices.apk, but I cant find the language string. Thanks. My Android version is 4.2.2.

If I understand you correctly, you are taking files from the framework of one device and putting them into the framework of a different device?
If that's the case, you can't do that. Apks (even framework apks) rely heavily on things like resource ids, which very greatly from device to device, or from rom to rom.
Unfortunately Im nit sure how to do what you are seeking to do, just offering some advice on your apk compiling problem. Also, if I've completely misunderstood what you were doing, I apologize and disregard what I said.
In any case, post the compiling error your getting.

[Q] How to Enable all Languages for Custom ROM

Hi Guys,
I am trying to enable all the locales in a custom ROM, but I cannot find anywhere on how to do this. I have searched high and low, and although there are a lot of references to libwebcore.so & libskia.so they seem to be in reference to adding Arabic languages, all I want to do is give access to the languages that are already present.
If MoreLocale2 can gain access there must be an easy way to do it, but it seems to be an industry secret as I can't find the answer anywhere, can anyone help?

Me too someone help
You can find from internet ''MoreLocale 2'' all languages ​​in the program have
I'm intrested in this too and MoreLocale 2 doesn't help
I'm looking for a list of language codes available in CyanogenMod but you could try changing the language codes in ~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/vendorsetup.sh then building ... although I have no idea if this is right. I just don't see a lot of hardcoded language stuff
Did that work???

Depends where you want to see them. They are compiled into the frameworks and settings.apk etc. Easiest thing is if you don't have teh languages you need on your ROM, use another ROM.
Look at picture. I want to add Turkish language. These are are very beautiful looking Roms, better than all the Roms i flashed.
As said above and files for language or not just in one place in the system .
These are are very beautiful looking Roms>>> flash one of those roms then .
Or find a Turkish forum may be even better .
