I have extract language 0804 from China Mobile ROM and sort it into OEM and SYS, however, there is no "Language_Simplified Chinese" folder under OEM, hence, when I try to cook my own ROM, I can't find Chinese options.

Can any one let me know how to build the the folder "Language_Simplified Chinese" and make the options visible?

Thanks in advance!

There is no such folder in the original ROMs, you have to create one. Look at the other language packs (are you using the language kitchen for new guava or the vox kitchen 0.3??). There you should find a .dsm and a .rgu (rgu s are hidden) and a option.xml. Just copy them to your "Language_Simplified Chinese" folder and then rename the dsm and rgu to ce2bca2e-da07-4123-9e20-87dc3dcf032c.dsm and ce2bca2e-da07-4123-9e20-87dc3dcf032c.rgu Then go into the option xml, there you will find a line with the former name of the rgu change it to ce2bca2e-da07-4123-9e20-87dc3dcf032c . Also change the line for the name to Chinese.. Then you have to go into the rgu (with editor) there you have to change all the language codes to the code for Chinese, but only change the codes for the former language, because English has to stay in, English is either 0409 or 0809!

Many thanks.

Yes, I am using kitchen to cook the rom. However, when I try to build the rom, it reports an error that "temp\dump\mixpcold_smartphon_1.provxml" already exist.

Then what can I do?

Search for the file, it should be in the ROM twice somewhere in the sys or oem folder, delete one, if it is in an oem package delete that not the one in sys.

Thanks again.

I have successfully build the rom and flash to the Vox, but the display just squares, neither Chinese nor English.

Can you please tell?

Hm, can you upload all your language files, just zip and attach them, I'll see what I can do!

Do you have a Chinese keyboard layout or is it a normal English qwerty? Maybe I have found your mistake! I'll upload once you have told me about the keyboard!

OK I am uploading, wait 5 minutes and it's done! Again I don't know if it'll work at all, because it is not from the same ROM version!

Any way, more than thanks.

One more question.

I have dumped the original rom into three raw files. Can I flash this files back? If so, How?

I am sorry I don't know. Nobody here has tried it and reported back, but people keep asking it. It should (!) work when you just extract it to OEM and SYS folder, place that in the kitchen and run it, but as I said I don't know if it works!

I think a raw file (or was it a bin ?) can also be directly flashed with pdocwrite.exe but I have never tried that. Search for it on the forum or with google and be cautious with it.
Please report here if you are succesfull :)

Yeah, because if it works we could write a Wiki article. Did the new language pack work?

Any more ways to help me out?

What I guess it because of wince.nls file. It it Chinese support file. I can find it after flash, but I can't find in folders before I cook them. Do you have any idea?
