Motorola Xoom Unlocked :: Change OS Language To English?
Oct 6, 2011
I have just got myself an XOOM 3G, from Saturn electronics here in Germany. This is an device witout contract, and I am using it with my O2 data contract for 3G connectivity.
I was expecting that I would be able to change the OS language from the Standarad German to English... Huummph it seems not to be the case.
It looks like from my investigations that I will need to reinstall the Android OS, because The only language in German android in German SO my question is where do I find the download of the version of Android that has English as a selectable language? BTW the device's current OS level is H.6.3-25-9

My name is lise and I jus turned on my phone after charging for the first time and am stuck already. I actually hit the wrong button for the language and is stuck in a different language and I can't read it to get back to where I had the option of English. Tried the back button but ot isn't going back to the language menu and now I am stuck.

If I chose another language the web browser and the ovi maps change there language with no problem. How can I resolve this problem with the Portuguese language. Can I downgrade the firmware.
I just bought a Bold 9700 today. After installing the (Mac) Desktop Manager and hooking up the Blackberry to my Mac I went to the Applications tab and installed some additional applications. After the blackberry restarted the menu language was set to english (instead of german, like it was before), so I went into the options to change it back to german, but the only option possible is English.Does anyone know, how I can get german as a language back?

**** complete edit by fletch33. just too much to edit out to save this post. please see our house rules in regards to dicussion and links to information that alters the system or requires root.there are plenty of forums to discuss this however the Motorola corporate forum is not one of them.
I was given a beautiful Nokia E72 but missing italian language there are only english, french, german, dutch, russian and romanian I think. My phone is EURO with product code 0573569, do you have the same missing?
I know there is a lot of anger over on the UK forum about why Motorola can't provide even a date for upgrading to 3.1, so I thought I'd share my experience of working round the issue on a UK WiFi only Xoom. What I did was download the stock 3.0 US firmware from the motorola developers site, unlocked my xoom, and installed it. Instructions are provided on the site along with the firmware here; url...When you install, it will wipe your device. You will loose all data. Back it up before you do anything.After install, you will have a vanilla 3.0 US Xoom. The difference being a couple of extra games, but no UK dictionary. This isn't the 3.1 that you are waiting for though. You need to then go to system updates and the tablet will then tell you that there is a new version of the firmware. Let it download and install that, you you will have a 3.1 device.Other than the missing UK dictionary, the only other problem is the iPlayer web site. After a month and a half, the BBC had finally updated the iPlayer web site to recognize Honeycomb as a valid mobile device, but with Honeycomb 3.1 it is back to saying that this mobile device can't use iPlayer. Muppets. You can work round that by putting the browser in to debug mode and setting it to be a desktop device.
Unlocking also voids your warranty, although my personal belief is that a hardware defect would still be covered under UK consumer law if you can show that unlocking and installing Motorola firmware is a reasonable thing to expect to do - in the same way that a washing machine manufacturer can't say that your waranty is void if you use washing powder in your machine. I'm not a lawyer though, so make up your own mind on that one.
I turn on my tablet and the screen freezes saying something about starting troubleshooting or something error. I can not shut off or do anything. it gets real hot and i have to wait till the battery goes dead in order for it to shut off. I bought from Staples and i was 1 day past the 14 day return policy and they refused to help. I only had it 2 weeks and this is the 3rd time it happened
Well I wanted to start a poll, but the forums wouldn't allow it.Anyways lets send Motorola a message why us "The consumer" would like the bootloader unlocked.
