Second language? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, my mother tongue is catalan, and then spanish. My third language is English.
If I use catalan, only some apps support it, and if they dont, I cant use spanish as a second language, it uses english directly.
I would like to do that:
Catalan-->App not compatible-->Spanish-->App not compatible--> English
Right now it goes directly from catalan to English.
Do you know anyway to do that?, Are there any custom roms which support that functionality?

Changing vocabolary

Hi all!
I've an Imate (qtek2020) with installed in a 1.72wwe english rom.
I'd like to know if is there a way to modify the vocabulary installed that pops up when you write an sms by the keyboard, for example, and suggests other words. Now it suggests me only words in english but i'm italian and so, perhaps it's possible to substitute the file that links to the vocabulary (if there is one) with one in italian.
I don't know if you understand me
Sorry for my english and thanks for the answear!
ciao ciao

with 2002 or was it 2000 you could exchange the dictionary that word use
with word97's ( pc ) dictionary but for some reason ms stoped it in newer roms
i havent found any info about being able to change the dic that sms and outlook uses (because for some unknown reason it's not the same that word use)
i cant claim to know much about roms in other languages then english but would an italian xda2 rom not have the rigth dictionary ?
if so flash your xda2 with an italian rom
Ok, but having anyway the italian rom, i don't know witch files is used by windows mobile 2003 and also, how to extract it in the right place.
I think is not so simple this question!

Palm Pepito PVG100e change language to French

Hello ,
I found a Palm PVG100e for sale for a fair price. Its model name is PVG100E-2A1PWEA.
But it only has English, Spanish and Portuguese "on board" languages. The seller says "no language pack available". But I guess he omits "unless you root the phone".
What options do I have to change language to french on a Palm PVG100e ?
• Is it possible to manage language packs keeping its stock ROM (if I root the phone) ?
• Is it possible to switch to a stock french ROM ? If yes, where can I find stock french ROMs ?
• Is it possible to switch to a french LineageOS ROM ?
Thank you for your help !
Have a nice day !

Hello french compatriot !
Just found your thread because i'm also interested by this phone.
The simplest solution (without touching system ROM already installed) is to use one of those apps that can change locale (i.e. language displayed by apps).
It means all installed apps that already support french language (like google apps) will then display in french. But the system UI (settings, menus) and Palm apps will still display in English.
This app for example seems to do the job : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.langs.locales
I think this is the easiest solution, but will keep you in touch when i have received the phone
Hello zyva73,
Thank you for your smart and easy (albeit partial) solution !
I still hope for a complete french interface, but your clever idea is a good start !
Have a nice day !
Cobus.
If you root the device as described here ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...fixes-script-2020-03-11.4052477/post-83354187 ) you can chose French as your system language on the palm
Thank you cfkf for your input !
The howto you mention is a root + debloat method, as far as I understand it.
It is my understanding, that french is not included in some european phones.
The one I mentioned only would have English, Spanish and Portuguese "on board" languages.
I might be wrong, but to me, rooting a phone gives access to things that were present, but locked before.
Do you mean that french is present but locked on some PVG100E phones ?
I thought that french was absent to save space…
I'm not sure, but my experience is this:
I bought my phone through Ebay from a German supplier. When I first booted it, my only language options were German, English (UK) and English (US). There might have been Spanish, I'm not sure, but no more.
But after I rooted, I got a whole list of languages to select from. I even got to select Dutch (my native language). I am not 100% sure French was in the list (I don't have the palm on me right now) but if it has Dutch I'd be rather surprised that it wouldn't have French
EDIT: just to clarify, you only have to root, the debloat process is not necessary to unlock the other languages.
EDIT2: my device is a PVG100E, so European version also
Thanks a lot for your explanations !
I just checked now that I have had access to my Palm: with me, unfortunately it seems that while Dutch is available, French is not. Very strange since, well, French is insanely more widespread...
Still, rooting seems to unlock more languages and maybe some Palms have French? Might be worth a try.
Thanks for your investigations !
Can you please list the available languages ?
There may be PVG100E models for nothern Europe (with german, dutch, etc.) and others for southern Europe (with italian, french, portugese, etc.).
So in my system settings, apart from Dutch I currently have:
- Catalan
- German
- English
- Euskara (Basque)
- Galego (Galician)
- Portuguese
- Turkish
No Italian, so if you have this, this suggests that language options might be different between phones.
I'm under the impression that when I first booted the phone after root, I had more options, but I might be mistaken.
Strange that it would have a series of languages that are extremely uncommon (I didn't even know that Galician was a language - no offense) and it wouldn't have French... Maybe there are some legal constraints in Spain that any device that is sold has to have the regional languages as well?
In any case, even apart from languages it's a good idea to root and then debloat your palm. Does miracles for the otherwise atrocious battery life of this device.
Your phone has Catalan, Euskara (Basque) and Galego (Galician), three regional languages from Spain, but not spanish ! This is so strange !
There must be various languages sets for PVG100E phones.
The PVG100E-2A1PWEA version had spanish as a standard language.
What is the complete name of your PVG100E ?
