That's what I'm saying. It is T-Mobile version, there are only 6 languages available. I know, I can kinda do it with some apps, but they all need root access, which I didn't find online still

You might need to be rooted but try "morelocale 2" in the play store
If your not rooted check out this link on how to get permissions using adb commands

If you have your phone rooted, use Root Explorer or similar file explorer and move the following file to memory card:
/system/csc/languages.xml
and reboot the phone and see.

Are we supposed to guess what phone you have? It takes different methods to root different devices so you have to state what phone you have.

[Q] Help root

I have follow this instruction http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27756968&postcount=393 from firth step to last step everything is ok have the supersu also.. I would like to know if my phone is now rooted??
If superuser is there that means it is rooted, but if you want to verify download "es file explorer" and enable the root explorer in settings..when you enable it you'll get a prompt asking you to grant access if you are able to grant permissions that means you have rooted.
Or simply plug-in your phone to the pc and launch flashtool, it will say if ur device is rooted
It say Root Access Allowed in flashtool..Means im ok Rooted??
If yes i want to put that in my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1724602 cannt paste in system which explorer have to use?

Ok, i finally rooted my chinese sgpt111cn that was on stock ics.
Now i still can't get google accounts even after changing region to Us.
Did someone try to downgrade from chinese stock rooted ics to US honeycomb?
Do you think it's risky?
I can't wait for my chinese tablet to finally become fully usable!!!

yes of course, no luck
seems the chinese version of the market HiMarket is not replaced and I don't find a trace of the moded market after reboot, even though Aio says everthing went well...
I also tried copying it myself with root ES explorer, but even that doesn't work. It seems the chinese version lacks the google service framework as well, so I copied and installed it... no luck.
There are so many difference between the chinese and US ICS, I think the only way is to flash a new fm...
or wait until 4.0.4 so that I don't risk a downgrade, unless someone already found a solution to change a rooted chinese stock ICS to a US one ?

You will need root but...
Region changer should work. Change to US then reinstall US zip...

yes that's what I'm doing, I changed the region and got the zip (signed-nbx03_001-ota-120803002)
now it's stuck because I need to change vendor prop and decrease the build # I guess.
I'll try that and let you know how this works, what could go wrong anyway ?
worst case I'll end up with US ICS unrooted and will root again with the new method that worked on my chinese 4.0.3 r1a
I'm using Aio 4.0 btw, and disable hack_recovery download from sites.google because the shell could not connect, I don't know why...
I was able to download it through browser and put it locally myself anyway. all the rest if ok until the bad sku #, so vendor prop change should do the trick !
can someone tell me exactly what values to change to be able to downgrade in the prop files (vendor/build) ?
if I mess up those files, do I risk brick my tablet ?

Vendor.prop change incremental to 111104048. default aio incremental, I think. This cant brick tab But the region.zip can, tread with caution. After that AIO should a work with region changer.
Finally a root method that works!

never heard of that one before and after doing some research on that one click root saw it work for some people on different phones tried it didn't work the interface is in a different language (chinese/japanese not sure) also in order for it to do a root on your phone you first have to allow mock location in developer mode ( suspicious ) in the end it failed with some error number
just to root

I am all about rooting this darn phone. I had it since it was released and have actively been searching for a tool....I myself am not a developer. Towel root was the latest hope but the kernal was patched, so that was no good.
We do have some hope though....there is an exploit found and I mentioned it in another thread hoping someone would know something....I got no where.
I can't really complain, I am not a developer....i am just hoping there is a developer out there that has the phone and can root it.....all I can do is hope and dream.
Here is what I found....lets hope someone can pick this up and root our firmware (which even isn't on sammobile - whats that all about??)
psenseny said:
I was doing some more searching on root, and found that the Galaxy S6 has achieved root without unlocking the bootloader.
Is there anyone out there that can look at this and see if the same exploit can used in the Alpha (specifically the 850A (AT&T?)) We have been living without root purely because of the locked bootloader and am hoping someone is able to see if this can be ported. The upside for all is that is is reported to not trip KNOX

For SM-G850A to be rooted
1. Once its rooted, you can only delete files you dont need.
2, You cant install cook ROM because the bootloader is always lock.
So everyone is only trying to get to #1 ?

To be honest, that really all I need for root. Uninstall some apps and install some root apps like viper4android and adaway.
Base TouchWiz rom is not too bad. Just install a launcher of your preference and TW "somewhat" replaced.

Change default Android market

Hi.
How set Google play as default market instead mi store without root?
I installed play store and I don't like root my phone.
Tnx
You can't while the MI store is in there.
Either root and freeze or install a custom rom.
Hopefully now a developer rom is out a global one will follow which will be without Chinese bloat.

Mot sure on unroot. But you cannot remove it only freeze it. It's baked into miui so if you remove the phone will brick itself. So definitely not advised.

Most super user tools can unroot but the best by far is SuperSU. It has the option to do a full unroot and it would work for you I think.
Rooting is quite a chore really. I did it by installing kingroot app and then using terminal emulator to install SuperSU app and binaries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euK91peMIEI instructions are on this video. I do suggest kingroot app to the one in the video links.

In video miui ROM of phone was global, but until now global ROM not available in official site!!!
http://en.miui.com/download-298.html
Yes, that ROM is not official. But this process works on the official ROM too. But I had no success on any ROM higher than 7.1.1. There is an official ROM bearing that version number, I'm running on it now. I don't know if you can get an ota update while rooted, I haven't tried it. Also I'm not sure of the outcome of ota updating your phone after unrooting, though I have read that many users have done it and had no complaints. I'm not going to update my ROM because I'm interested in keeping root. But you could try it. SuperSU even has a possibility to stay intact through an ota update. But I've never tried it.
