taiwan version is chinese. papago from m3 for msia and singapore has always been in english.
yup. actually i confirmed liao is coming. duration is 2-3 weeks but i'd say a month before official launch. That's why i actually say early march instead of late feb. later scared everyone kena let down.

interface cannot. but voice pack can swap to english. i did it once a long long time ago before x5 msia launched. that time still on htc hero. so very long ago. now u ask me i cannot remember liao.

i only can remember i swap the taiwan x5 voice files and replace it with a lot of pre-recorded counter strike sounds also lol. even the keyboard doesnt click. it goes pang pang pang ( CS 1.6 gunfire from desert eagle)
That process was scary. It took me more than 1/2 day i remember. coz i skipped 1 meal.
There were some glitch on poi search and road search also but i cannot remember liao. really too long ago.

Oh and if u purchased the taiwan license genuine, you cannot transfer that to m8/m9. even if u purchase m8 taiwan from maction , the license cannot transfer or swap unit. msia papago is from m3gps so have to buy another sdkad from them.
