    Did you use my rssreader?
    Gubbi has sent me message about making an English version. But I have some difficulties of displaying Chinese under the English System. And my English is poor, I cannot translate the menu into English.

    yeah,

    about translation ,
    can you use alternative installer example one for chinese and one for english like the M8Profile?
    and you can translate it with simple english like (update RSS , OK , Cancel , Edit RSS Feed ) , anyone here understands. my english is poor as you too :D

    so , please translate for us if you can.

    thanks.

    No, i don't think it will happen.

    This is what i assumed to begin with: they are pulling the weather feed from a third party server and that server which supplies the data is only in Chinese - possibly only for China.

    We would need to find the server/service that is on the HTC (for example) and have a developer write a new program. I am not sure, but possibly weather.com or yahoo or someone provides a wap portal for weather...

    I tried to use Unicode, but there is a problem about "\r\n" and "\n",I cannot display them correctly.

    mmm... it so sad


    and if this not bother you ... can you made a "special version" that use unicode for us? we don't care about little \r\n \n (break line and new line) if it show as \r\n or \n because it a little problem and we can open links in opera to read full message.

    I have made an English version. Try it. If you have any question, please send E-mail to me. This Version cannot display Chinese if you choose English as the default language.

    Thai is a country in ASEAN - -* Don't you know Thailand?, our capital city is Bangkok, about 70 millions population. Thai also mean Thai language or Thai people.

    So if this app can read Thai, it mean your RSS should read every language (need language pack installed) because our language is very complicate. i'll give you an example for the word "This is a pen" in Thai we type "นี่คือปากกา" look at the first word "นี่" almost program can't render this correctly because of the space between line.

    I've been China only one time. I get M8 from ebay (2-3 shops sell M8 but not Meizu Thailand)
    There is Meizu fan name "Adobe" (in this board) or "DogGold" compile .cab installation file to embled Thai Font to M8 and also install with Yahei too.

    Last question, I'm Thai-Chinese but can't speak Chinese and also can't read Chinese. I know all the function by trying (sometime I read from config file)
