anyone know how to read and type chinese characters on BB curve 8900?

[obentou]

I'm waiting on this too. Until the release of an East Asia firmware for the 8900, in which it will probably be with HK CSL, I doubt we will see support for it until then. I'm getting annoyed with the little squares in place of my contacts too.

The latest OS for 8900 has been released, do you think the following OS supports the chinese language?

BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.6.1.185 (Multilanguage)

Package Version: 4.6.1.185
Consisting of:
Applications: 4.6.1.114
Software Platform: 4.2.0.76
File name: 8900M_PBr4.6.1_rel185_PL4.2.0.76_A4.6.1.114_Telefo nica_Venezuela.exe
File size: 118.17MB

Thanks a lot, Buddy.

I am downloading the firmware now. New to the BB world. Do you have a step-by-step instruction of installing and turn on the Chinese support option?

Thanks a million!

Could I continue to use my .133 and just take the East Asian language support out from that build? If so, how can I do that? Thanks!

I have helped someone from this forum to install Chinese on his 8900 and he was very happy with it; being able to read and type in Chinese.

I have added this through my desktop manager. I have posted this in another thread, just wondering if in the UK there is no desktop manager.

Here is a link to the thread with instructions on how I installed Chinese fonts and the ability to type chinese characters with my 8900. It looks like everyone has had this taken care of via pm, but I found it quite easy thought Desktop Manager.
