You have to replace all language-related files with the proper ones in your language! Search in the SYS folder for *.mui files (mostly modules in a SYS folder) and replace them! But you need to edit the RGU's as well, if they exsisting in that package! DO the same with the OEM folder but here the MUI files are real files and not modules, like in the SYS folder! After that, cook your ROM and try it!

You forgot to mention the lang/mui in the registry.

The mui language files are not related to the XIP build are they? I mean I can replace those files with another build's mui files and everything will run fine, or do I have to replace them with a concordant build.

No, MUI files aren't really XIP related but it's better to use MUI files from an official build as near as possible with the desired one!

For an example:
I'm using a 21042 build with MUI files from a 20764 build and all working fine! ;)

Normally you'll find the registry files as RGU files inside of each package! You can edit them with Notepad, or what I prefer, EditPad Lite!

It's not a good idea because the changes in MUI files from WM6.1 to WM6.5 may be to huge for a proper translation! It's better to wait for an official ITA Build from HTC in my opinion! ;)

I like this EnergyROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514298)
and I am looking for some way to make the cooked rom support CHT.

I have read the post in this thread.
What you guys are talking is changing the *.mui file with other language version. Am i right?

I don't mind using program in English. English is good to read.
But most of my contact's name, sms, email ...etc are in CHT.
All chinese character became a Rectangle.

If i just want the OS to support CHT, how can i do it?

Thanks!!:)
