Nokia 8600 - change language HELP!

Hi Guys,
Recently I picked up a 8600 .. nice phone
xpt ... the language is set to chinese ... and I can't read chinese ... so therefore I can't read the settings to change to english ... doh!
Can anyone give me a step by step rundown of how to do this
something like ... push button 3 time, go down 2 option, click right button etc etc
thanks

The quickest, easiest way to get it back to english is to call in at a nokia care point.
They will be able to do it in minutes if it's a genuine nokia.

  • Language problem on nokia 8600

    hi all
    i have a litter problem on my phone nokia 8600.
    it's a gift from my aunty from England and i currently in malaysia.
    the phone is nice and it's in good condition as well!
    but...it's can't recognize chinese character. it's a bit annoying when i recieved an msg which in manderin word, i have to forward to another phone to read it.
    it's not a big deal , but day to day it's cost me a lot, expecially in chinese occasion, i keep recieving these type of msg.
    so my question is, is there any way to install another software that support chinese languages perhaps it's like PC software??? i have no idea)
    thanks for your time, and hope somebody can give me a hand here.
    cheers!

    Hi SamehLandous,
    Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.
    This can be fixed quickly by updating or reinstalling the software. 
    Please connect your phone to Nokia Suite and make a back up first via Tools > Back up. Then click on the green arrow icon where you will be able to update the phone's software. If no update is listed you will be able to reinstall the current software, this option is displayed in blue. 
    After the update, please go to Tools > Restore to restore the back up. The Nokia Recommends app will now make the required internet connection and the application will run smoothly.
    Please get back to me if you manage to resolve the issue, otherwise I can provide further support.

  • Nokia n96-3 language pack changing by software upd...

    I have just boght wrongly thr n96-3 us version
    I sent my phone to nokia service in turkey to install turkish language pack and result was negative
    anyone help to change language ?thanks

    well let me just tell you before you yell at me for being grumpy and difficult that I have been to 6 different places in this city of 20 million and not ONE person in any Nokia center was able to help me with an additional language pack. they just say "can't do it" and that's it. I get the pointthat normally you'd not get a seldom used language pack on a phone sold on a different continent, but you should be able to get what language you need, at extra cost even, no problem, but SHOULD BE ABLE TO get it. SHOULD being the operative word!
    Let me tell, you I went to the doctor today with a sinus problem. The doctor asked me what's the matter with me. I said sinus. He wrote it down. Then asked me what I want for it. I said the name of the drug. He wrote it down. That was it. That's the medical care here. I'm the doctor! I know what is the matter with me and I get to choose my medicine, get it?  hahahah. So forgive me for being grumpy about my new phone )))
    Anyway, over and out - I solved the problem by adding Polish words to my English dictionary it helps Thanks everyone for the advice ))

  • How do I change language on HP4632? I went to preference but no option for English. Please help

    How do I change language to English on HP4632. Iwhen I go to the preference option it does not display English , only Latin and other languages . Please help

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that you are trying to change the language to English with your HP Officejet 4632. I am happy to help!  Have you tried scrolling up and down through the whole list of languages? Perhaps you don't see English because the language of the printer is set to some other language. Do you know what language the printer is showing? In the meantime, I have sent you a private message with the instructions on how to do a factory reset, please give that a try and let me know what happens! If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, this post has instructions. You can also try using Google Translate, to try and understand the words on the screen. Hope this helps!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • Help! Nokia 8600 not working with my Ford audio bl...

    I've got a problem connecting my Nokia 8600 Luna to the Ford Audio on my Ford S-Max 2006 via bluetooth. Whenever I try to bond between the two bluetooth products, I get a "Bonding Failed" message on the Ford CD player display and "unable to bond to bluetooth device" on the phone.
    I've asked around some Ford S-Max forums and I'm told that I may need to wait for a Nokia Firmware update for the 8600 and keep my fingers crossed that this will contain and update which will make the two devices compatible. Is this true? Its very frustrating as I have an old Nokia 6230 which works fine on the Ford Audio and I have to switch to using this on long drives! The bluetooth on the smax was an expensive option and the Nokia 8600 ain't cheap either and now I feel like they've both been a waste of money! Please help me Nokia community.

    I don't know whether a firmware upgrade would help. You were lucky with the 6230, it had excellent compatibility with a wide variety of car kits. The 8600 is compatible with relatively few.
    Ford are factory-fitting some cars with a car kit developed on their behalf by Nokia - if yours is this system, then a list of compatible phones is on the web site (I can't give you a direct link because they use flash presentation pages in the web site, but start here: http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4221246 and work your way through car > car integration > Ford.
    The problem with factory-fit car kits is that the car manufacturers get one of the phone/car kit manufacturers to develop kits for them, but they usually don't maintain the relationship so the car kit falls behind as new phones are developed.

    Hi!
    The main language set to Russian but how can I change language to russian when I search something? English only!

    The only way to input Russian would be to use the Remote app in an iOS device.  But whether that would work for finding anything I don't know...

  • Changing Language in 6120

    Hi all
    I am having trouble with changing language in 6120.
    Usually, I am use to change language by pressing the # key when i write some thing... BUT the thing is that in 6120, it will change the language only to the language you choose.
    E.G main language is English, I write a URL in english that i want to get to, now, i am in the site and wants to write in Hebrew, However, the options of changing language by pressing on # key is only 123, abc, ABC but not Hebrew, even when i have Hebrew fonts installed. thus, i need to go to the language section, choose Main language as Hebrew, go back to the site and write in hebrew ... cant i do it just with the # key ?! so i will have 123, abc, ABC, אבג ... BTW, i had this option in my old 6230i

    In July of this year, Apple made a change to the iTunes store which essentially makes this impossible (for now). Until that time, there was a workaround you could use as per their Knowledgebase which would let you set the language of the iTunes Store back to English, regardless of what country your iTunes account was based in.
    There have been repeated attempts from the user community to get Apple to acknowledge and address this issue, but the customer service staff have thusfar only referred to the KB article, which doesn't actually help. For now, your only option is to select a different country's store by selecting the flag icon/button on the lower right corner of the iTunes store and reading about applications or music in another store...of course, this actually will log out out of your itunes store account, which means you can't purchase anything, and as soon as you sign back in, you will be forced to the language of the country your account is based in.
    I find this policy of Apple's to be truly repugnant and counter everything they've strived to stand for - but it seems it's here to stay, as they won't acknowledge nor fix it.
    Apple's staff only point to:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2242
    This will not fix the problem we've all been having since July.

  • Firefox freeze whenever tired to change language input

    Hi. Whenever I tried to change language input to enter other languages Firefox freeze (program not responding).
    It happens as soon as I hit alt+shift or when I click language bar to select other language.
    It also happens with several languages (that I tested, might be all), and I tried various input software/mode including windows default, all freeze. Reset Firefox under help does not work either.
    This issue occur with Firefox and Chrome, but not IE... Might not be Firefox problem as it happen w Chrome, but and ideas please? Thanks.
    J
    Edit:
    * regedit might be changed, but do not believe touched internet setting.
    * I can enter foreign language as long as I set that language to default, and do not change to other language in the language bar. Currently I am using foreign language input software as default, and switch to English input '''within '''that software.

    Hi. karaoke I am not sure if its the same issue. The crash at language switch on my computer was due to the IME for Eastern Language Banks (Language option -> Detail under text services and input languages -> Properties -> reset/untick auto learn).
    If you are not using Eastern Language IME... I am sure others here have more experience and can better help you. =)

  • Multi-language Help in a multi-language web app

    Hello!
    I had posted this on the RH HTML forum but removed that and
    posted here for a wider audience...
    ***Please note: this question is not specific to RH but is
    applicable now that RH 7 is unicode enabled. If you have experience
    that does not relate to RH, please share anyway!
    Once I have developed WebHelp (for example) in multiple
    languages, how do I connect the help files to the web application
    that the help is about? How does the correct language output get
    displayed? For example, the application (that the help documents)
    changes its interface based on browser language. Can the
    appropriate help content be displayed based on browser language?
    How is multi-language help generally implemented for an end user?
    And, equally important, how does context-sensitive help
    (mapping) work with multiple languages?
    I have never been involved in a multi-language development
    effort and so I have no experience to relate this to. Any guidance
    will be greatly (and gratefully
    ) appreciated!
    Kathy

    That's how our developers do it, but I just want to throw in
    one other detail. The help output for each language has to be in a
    separate directory. So if you have 5 languages, you'll have 5
    directories. It's up to the developers to code the app so it
    detects the browser language, then looks in the appropriate help
    directory when the user clicks your help link or icon.

  • I cannot change language with my qwerty keyboard

    I'm using firefox for mobile 5 on LG LU2300(optimus Q) which has physical qwerty keyboard.

    When I use on screen touch keyboard, it's O.K.

    Hi freetbet,
    This is currently a known problem and we have an open bug report tracking this issue, [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669361 bug 669361]. At this time I am not aware of any workaround besides continuing to use the virtual keyboard as you mentioned.
