...looks like it's time to learn Chinese for the latest and greatest. Thanks Jibi.

bobhammer · 05-02-2006, 12:20 AM

is it a chinese os?
if yes, can I just install the chinese.alx to my telstra os....becos I want to stick with a english platform!

DuckWingDuck · 05-02-2006, 12:25 AM

I honestly don't know what the hell's going on. I used jibi's blackberry.alx file, deleted vendor.xml, everything seems to get picked up but for some reason, I still can't view trad. chinese text.

bobhammer - which of the chinese options did you select?

bobhammer · 05-02-2006, 12:27 AM

I am still dling the file....

Is this what you looking for, just install the 4.1.0.371 chinese version, traditional chinese display is now 100% correct, also zen theme is not lock with the default "BLACKBERRY.ALX" file, you can change the language within email and notepad.

Thanks JIBI for the link.

As a shameful ABC who can barely recall what she's learned in CHIN1002 two years ago in one semester...

This scares me. And makes me want to bury my head in my textbook and the World Journal to learn all over again.

I guess the BB keyboard functions the same way a normal keyboard does as far as input goes?

Time to purchase those stickies for the keystrokes... but for the BB!

bobhammer · 05-02-2006, 07:00 AM

i know a lot of chinese...pin me if you need some help with it!! haha!!

DuckWingDuck · 05-02-2006, 10:10 AM

Ditto bobhammer though my simplified isn't quite up to snuff, which leads me to my next question, is it possible to get trad chinese menus? And also, even if I pick traditional chinese as my font, set the menu as english, my chinese text is still not showing up. Ugh. Back to playing with it.

DuckWingDuck · 05-02-2006, 10:20 AM

So I can input and send with Chinese, dammit, wheren's pinyin or zhuyin for trad chinese!!! Still, viewing, no dice.

I just found out that Hong Kong CSL put out 3.09 as well. I wonder since the version # is the same efor Starhub, I wonder if contents are the same? Oh well I am downloading it from Hong Kong CSL right now and will install and find out.

DuckWingDuck · 08-17-2006, 03:18 PM

Er.. never mind.

asianmale168 · 08-18-2006, 07:12 AM

I have 8700c for cingular in the US. I don't see my model in this section. Can you please tell me if this will work for my model? By the way, what is StarHub? Thanks

Lex Luthor · 08-18-2006, 10:49 AM

I'm still running the Telstra OS on my BlackBerry. Any major differences with the StarHub OS such as sound, speed, etc...?

StarHub is a wireless provider. You can load the StarHub OS on your 8700c if you choose to do so.

navzdy · 08-22-2006, 08:49 PM

anyone who had the 8700c with cingular, are all of the preloaded cingular stuff still there? or is the OS completey changed to the asian carriers style?
