I'm also interested in knowing this....right now my phone can't read chinese/japanese characters....how how?

reading chinese character is not a problem
i got it working by following the steps provided in the following links

the problem is just no chinese character input

QUOTE(keeekeee @ Aug 25 2007, 03:34 PM)
not yet. will flash it to HK version which support chinese input. maybe flash it tonight smile.gif  my friend did already. so far so good. so decided to to do it as well .... really wish SE will come out something really fast like pocket pc soon. p1i compare with ppc still slow.
*
where are you going to flash the firmware?
and also, will it void the warranty?

by the way, P1i user here using what screen protector?
the only screen protector i found around is martin field and a lil google search revealed some complains from other user that martin field SP is too thick that it affected the sensitivity of touchscreen on the edge. advice needed

so your hanging problem fix ady wit new fw?
*
there are improvement, but did not solve all the problem.

1) previously it takes like forever for me to open my messaging. now although still slow, but it is bearable.

2) significant improvement of battery life. i only get less than a day battery life on R6D23. but on R6E30 i still left 20% battery since my last charge 30hours ago. but anyway, i DO think my unit is defective as user feedback usually reports average battery life of 2days.

3) network related crashing issue did not go away with the new firmware. after a few hours (average) of booting, the phone will refused to receive/making SMS/Calls/3G connection. and when you force it to, it will hang straight.

I'm still wondering the network issue has anything to do with maxis or not as i don have the other operator service to try it out.

your one is definately a defected oledi, why dont you change from your seller?? sad.gif

since it is an AP set...there is a lots of issue.
i requested to exchange for a new set with the AP distro company from day 1 i bought...at first they ask me to leave it there and they want to "fix" it. but they don't even have the firmware for this set and i'm not letting them to tear my brand new phone apart...so after some arguement, they agreed to replace me a new phone.

but later they go and flame the person i buy from (their dealer) and refused to change directly as agreed earlier.

I'm afraid there's no third-party chinese input method for UIQ3 available now.

However,there's an alternative way for you to enable the chinese pinyin,stroke and handwritting input method.

First,change your Customize Data Area to Singapore or HongKong
Second,UPDATE your firmware.

After doing that,you will get Simplified Chinese system for Singapore or Traditional Chinese system for HongKong.Both of them support simplified/traditional chinese inputing.
You can also select languages between Chinese and UK English.

now where can i  change the Customize Area To Singapore / Hongkong

changing CDA is not an easy job.so far i haven't seen any risk free and FOC CDA changing service for P1i.
changing the CDA might risks bricking the phone and voiding warranty

here's two site that provide CDA altering software.
http://www.kulankendi.com/index2.php
http://www.davinciteam.com

2nd, i'm having singapore CDA, that doesn't give me any chinese input. not even built in chinese display. I'm not sure how many sg CDA is out there though

correct me if i'm wrong.

you own each phone from each CDA u mentioned above?
what i mean earlier is which one is your phone's CDA, not CDA region table copied from http://uiq3.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/CDA/P1i

for your info, my p1i keypad layout is QWERTZ instead of QWERTY (top row from left to right).

Is this normal? hmm.gif

QUOTE(dotn3t @ Sep 5 2007, 01:02 AM)
QWERTZ is the main keyboard layout for german speaking countries. I think the difference between the layout's only the Z and Y keys are interchanged.

that's weird.luckily mine is normal QWERTY pad
anyway, still waiting for a replacement set...

Great, Hope you enjoy ur new P1i.
Anyway, Just try out the Writing Text Prediction of P1i.

It's much much better than P990i.
The word recognation for P990i is terrible while P1i is so great.

speak and type is not available unless there is any third party software outside tat probably could do this.
