I installed uheim00m cab on my touch pro. as far as reading and typing in chinese are fine..but it will not let me send chinese sms. it gives me ——— instand of chinese words.
any idea? I am on sprint.

so you guys can text with Chinese on sprint network? I installed the famous yahei 12m fonts so I can view chinese characters fine. and I am using the PlumSIP Pro VGA V6.1.0008 for input. But sprint network just could not recognize what I send by text message.I just installed the uhei00m-gray font posted here, didn't help.

How did you get the hard keyboard to input Chinese? Even with that startup file intact, when I type on the hard keyboard it just writes English.

I was able to send and receive emails in Chinese. SMS doesn't seem to work for me either, must be a carrier thing, I also have Sprint.

Also, the HTC music player (the one on the touchflo3d slide bar) now recognizes Chinese characters!

(I installed the 3 posted files)

I am on VZW. I know intercarrier will not work wahtsoever. But it suppose to work within carrier. I think chinese sms works on ATT, but I can not get it work in VZW

sorry I meant you can text in English with the uheim00m cab. you cant even text in English to a different carrier if you installed other chinese font .

just choose menu, overall setting, then you get the screen where you can choose skins etc, check the box" use hard keyboard" and then soft reset. but you have to have the startup file in windows/startup.

If anyone is interested, I found a program that gives you simultaneous Chinese/Japanese/Korean font and input support. It's not cheap, but there is a free trial:
Effy-CJK 4.0 (Chinese/Japanese/Korean/English) Fonts included 4.0
(link has some info about the program and a download link)
I'm trying it right now, now all my Chinese/Japanese/Korean mp3s titles etc. are displaying correctly in the HTC music player (touchflo3d interface) and in windows media player and the file explorer.

Interesting thing going on.....I can email myself here in the states from my phone and when i check my hotmail (from laptop) the chinese characters are displayed....when i email my wife using the phone it only shows ??...but when i use MSN on my phone she can read the characters...weird....and just so you know, it is not my wifes computer not being able to display...she lives in beijing and is Chinese, so her computer OBVIOUSLY displays chinese correctly...thinking it might have something to do with going thru so many places, but why would MSN work and not the hotmail????
