Enabling Multilanguage Support for Touch Diamond. GSM ONLEY NOT CDMA
Do this at your own risk, I seek no reward for this and don’t hold me responsible for any information given here. I have tried this on my own devices which are xda Ignito and orange htc and it worked a treat.
Here you go Guys and Girls a step by step guide with photos to have all the
languages your heart desire (except Chinese) on your xda, mda and of
course htc diamond. If your preferred phone language is not Arabic, then you
can have the setting changed to WWE with your desired language enabled
to let you send and receive SMS, manage Microsoft one note and word
documents so you can read, edit and write in your chosen language with all
other MUI staying in English. To send SMS and edit in your chosen
language; you would, of course, need to add your own language keyboard
and there are plenty out there; I personally use Resco 4.1 multi language
keyboard, but that’s a personal choice. This support is available as an
extended package in htc WWE shipped ROMs for the Arab region, namely
version:
Diamond_MRII_RUU_Diamond_HTC_ARA_2.03.515_Radio_si nged_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship which available to download from htc-Europe. If you try to download it from
the official site and you’re told that this is not suitable for your device after
you enter you SN don’t panic, htc will only let you download ROMs if your
device SN matches the region it was shipped for and that doesn’t mean that
it will not work on your European device. THIS IS DEFINATLY A WWE ROM.
If you don’t have a compatible SN and your phone is GSM, just do a Google
search for the ROM and you should find it.
For you who have flashed a ROM before,
flashing this ROM should be easy. However, I understand that there are
problems flashing 2.xx.xxx ROMs from a PC and you have to do
certain things to the ROM so you can flash it from the phone’s internal
storage.
Please read related threads for that, I used my PC to flash this rom using
olipro's NBHutil to extract the MB files from the main NBH file from the
ROM and rebuild it so it can be flashed using Diamond Custom RUU or
using the RUU that came with the ROM after deleting the SPL.NBH and the
original RUU_singed.nbh and replacing it with the modified nbh
built using NBHutil (Make sure you do not build the SPL back
into the modified NBH and have the relevant hard SPL) I’m not
going to dwell on this subject as this is not the object of this thread.
For you who have not flashed a ROM before,
if you don’t know what you’re doing and can’t be bothered reading or afraid
that if you flash your device you’ll lose your warranty; you can use a cab
file to enabble mltillanguage.
Just copyThe multillinguage cab to your device and install it on the main
memory.
This cab is, baiscaly, extracted from the same ROM and modified by a guy
called TSD over an Arabic forum, I don’t know if I can make reference to the
said forum or upload the cab as I might be breaking this forum’s rules. The
cab file is for free on that other forum. I shall leave this matter to the
Moderators to decide if I can post it or not.
The steps for installing the extended package is, of course, different if you
are flashing the ROM and you should know how to apply it. If not ask here
and I will go through it.
Whichever way you want to go, the illustration applies for both flashing and
adding the .cab file. The reason being is once you install this, your MUI will
be in Arabic and if you’re not an Arabic user you will definitely be struggling
to change it back to English. The whole idea of this is to have a WWE
device capable of handling your own language’s SMS read and write and
other stuff mentioned earlier. Now go through the pictures and enjoy.
