Hello fellow Android users
I would like to use the Google Assistant with it's commands and cool features on my Nexus 5X, but the problem is that you need a) nougat & b) either English or German system-wide language/locale. But I don't want to change my whole phone to English, I woul like to keep it in my native language (Czech). It wouldnt be a problem with Marshmellow because there you could change the language/locale on a per-app basis using an Xposed module AppSettings. So my question is, does anybody know about a way to do it in this situation? To change the language just for the Google app so that it thinks my phone is in English and it allows me to use Google Assistant?
btw. I know I have to change the build.prop and stuffs I actually got Assistant working if I change the whole phone to English, so that's not a problem for me.
Thanks for any help.

I remember sometime in 2009, when google navigation was restrict to US, some people used to Hack it to make it work outside the US...
Nowadays, Voice Action is restrict in english... The app is there.. if I change my locale settings to English US, it works... But when I set it back to portuguese, it only works in search mode...
I was then wondering if it was possible to hack it to make it work in other languages, since it can already recognize speech pretty well in portuguese...
Thanks...
i was thinking the same thing but i dont now if its possible!
if anyone could help?
Hello
I have faced one problem with Google Voice Search. I need it to recognise polish language (and that's not problem - works perfectly), buy I have also noticed, that Voice Search recognises that language, which is set as system language.
That's very annoying, beacause a lot of great ROM's here do not have polish support, which means that I will not be able to use Voice Search (talking in English isn't any problem for me, but using it for looking for polish websites etc. is almost impossible).
So, my main question: is there any option to set the language recognised by Google Voice Search manually ? Or it always recognises the language, which is set as system language ?
Thank you for your help and replies
Hello.
I am facing a great problem with AOSP keyboard dictionaries. I am hoping to use AOSP keyboard with my own language (malay) and therefore I also require the spell check to work with it.
With my current Cyanogenmod ROM, I cannot seems to be able to correct any of my spelled Malay words; presumably, there aren't any dictionary of it.
Concerned, I tried to use France as the language, shocked, the spell-checker works with France. So, this made my guess about the missing dictionary a possible-true thing. Add-on dictionaries is "empty" and also I cannot find a way to add any dictionaries.
As I am rooted, are there any ways I can force add the malay dictionary?
I am thinking of finding the English UK dictionary and translate it by-hand (working hard for it) and then put it back onto the system. Anyone who can guide me with this?
Ironically, changing CM's main language into "Bahasa Melayu" or Malay seems to work. I am not so sure why it doesn't on AOSP keyboard.
One thing to note, please don't recommend me installing another keyboard. No, I just want to stick with the mighty low resource fast and trustful stock keyboard.
Device Specs for someone who needs it:
- Xperia SP C5303
- Cyanogenmod 11 Kitkat (which is 4.4.4) nightly
- of-course prerooted (it's CM)
Thank you so much in advance if you are looking forward to help me Have a nice day.
Hello. I understand that one would not automatically gets reply on the forums, but doesn't there be anyone who at least know little about this matter?
Bumping this up
Last bump before I bump again a month later
Bump!! Abandoned for a month but I really still need a workaround for this.
one last sweet bump
It is most likely that the AOSP keyboard just doesn't have that language built in and as most aosp apps are left for dead by Google it would take someone to manually add the code into the AOSP keyboard on the source level. Just because the the main language changes doesn't mean the keyboard has the language.
Hi!
I have an Alcatel Onetouch 4015D. It's a low end device that does not have a lot of storage space, so it does not include out of the box many languages. So when I go to the Language setting I see only a short list of languages that does not include Greek. Would it be possible to add this language somehow?
I contacted Alcatel support and they told me that : "If the language you need isn't included, please try to download such language software from Google market."
By Google Market they actually mean Google Play (I confirmed that), but when I look for something like that there I find nothing.
ps. I'm not talking about keyboard layouts of course. I'm talking about switching the display language of the whole phone into Greek.
Nobody?
I recently came to possess a strange little android phone that I can find next to nothing about on the internet. It is a Duxiu LM S6. It was in an Asian language but I was able to do a factory reset in recovery mode, and then change the language to English. However, it has its own proprietary app store that is NOT in English, and there are still some things in the OS in the original language. I would like to let my kids use this phone for games and music, but I fear that to do that I need to load a custom ROM or something so that I can have access to the google play store. Does anyone know anything about these phones and where I might find some resources to help me?
