Android : How To Select / Install A Locale Other Than English
Dec 11, 2009
My application has resources files in English and French and works on Android 1.5 and >.
Inside the emulator, in Settings > Locale & Text > Select Locale, I can choose English or French. This updates the language of my application.
However, when I use the Android Dev Phone 1, only English is available in the "Select Locale" screen...
Is it possible to install french locale on Android Dev Phone 1 ? If so, how can I do this ?

So I'm trying to figure out how I can get English (United States) set up on my new Hero. I've looked through the Locale Text settings and found a few English settings, but they were all for Poland or Czech or wherever, no US. With my current setting, it connects me to UK versions of sites, and apps like ShopSavvy returns products in Pounds. I want USD please.Does anyone have a solution for this?

I've just come back from Hong Kong where I bought an X10 mini.
I've changed the language to English and it works well, however the keyboard is the Chinese one.
Is there an easy way to remove this keyboard and install an English one instead?

I'm trying to implement a Select All menu item for a ListView in a ListViewActivity. The relevant parts of my ListViewActivity: public class MyListViewActivity extends ListActivity browsed around stackoverflow.com and the google; the above is something that should work. But it isn't. setSelection(i) appears to be the method I want to call on ListView but it's not working as advertised. What am I doing wrong? Is this even possible on Android in code?

New to Android and starting to work on file mgmt. I set up some subfolders on my SD card for pictures. I have been moving pictures from one folder to another, but I can only move one at a time. Is there a way to select multiple picture files and move them to another folder (like "Select All" with Windows)? This is the sequence I've been following: Use the Edit Icon in the Astro taskbar, select Move, then going to the directory folder I want to move them, and hit Paste. Moving one file at a time is taking for ever.

I am trying to build an application (which would use the Hindi language and other regional languages) to get speech voice commands.I also need text to speech functionality in my application.I was wondering if there was any way I could get a speech recognition library on Android? I did a quick Google search and found a couple of libraries for Hindi on the Internet but I am not sure if I can include them in my Android project. Can I?

Does such a thing exist? I have searched the marketplace and have come up with a bunch of stuff, but what is junk and what is good? I want one for a trip I am taking. Needs to be a local app that doesn't need network access to look up the words.

Locale is one of my faverate App, it can create situations specifying conditions under which your phone's settings should change. For example, your "At School" situation notices when your location condition is "77 Massachusetts Ave.," and changes your ringer volume setting to vibrate.
With Locale's advanced touch-screen interface, you'll be set up in no time. Quickly define locations that are important to you using a simple Google Maps interface.
If you think this is exactly what you are looking for, you can download it in the market

I'm new to Android development and have just started playing with the SDK.
One thing that is annoying is that the emulator always start with Japanese settings. I have found out how to fix this by going into settings and remove all the Japanese stuff, but this is time consuming since I have to do it every time I start the emulator.
Can someone help me change the startup settings for the emulator?

My users can change the Locale within the app (they may want to keep their phone settings in English but read the content of my app in French, Dutch or any other language ...)
Why is this working perfectly fine in 1.5/1.6 but NOT in 2.0 anymore?
CODE:..........
The problem is that the MENU "shrinks" more and more everytime the user is going through the lines of code above ...
This is the Menu that gets shrunk:
CODE:.........
What should I do in API Level 5 to make this work again ?
HERE IS THE FULL CODE IF YOU WANT TO TEST THIS :
CODE:..............
AND HERE IS THE MANIFEST :
CODE:..........
THIS IS WHAT I FOUND :
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" />
=> IT WORKS JUST FINE ...
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" />
=> Menu shrinks every time you change the locale!
As I want to keep my application accessible for users on 1.5.

I'm about to get my first Android phone and I'm wondering what your favorite alternative to Locale is? I'm seeing reviews that are less and less favorable and for a $10 app, it out to be darn amazing in my book.

I found this on google discussion boards: Android UTF-8 - Google Mobile Help
Just wanted to double check with pro's here to make sure that adding a font set is not possible unless one has root access. I need to add non-English font support to Browser and email client to be able to read other languages.

I have just started with Android development and bought a handset(HTC Hero) for test and usage purposes. The sad part is that it doesn't display one of the scripts (Devanagari to be precise). Hence, I would like to contribute to the Android project to help render it. However, since I have just started I have no ideas of where to look for and begin with !
To be very precise, I would like to contribute for proper rendering of Nepali Language (Devanagari Script) for the Android OS. For ex. I would like to be able to see the following in an Android device rendered properly......................

I'm using PackageManager.getApplicationLabel(ApplicationInfo) to retrieve application labels. It looks like the label that is returned depends on the Locale set for the phone. For instance with the music app I get "Music" in English, vs. "Musica" if I have my locale set to Spanish. Is there a way to get the default application label (perhaps as defined in strings.xml)? I want to be able to retrieve an application label for each app that is independent of locale.
