you guys notice the new rom always came out for western regions first before asian region. I have the same question on cjk.alx. I just recently upgraded to .167 and i m happy w/ the performance (loading pic, 3g etc), however, there is no asian lang support. I downloaded the .162, the latest rom from asian and trying to copy cjk.alx into c:\program files\common files\rim\shared\[rom version]\ and hoping i can either install the alx from there.... when i launched DM, i couldn't see any reference to clk.

Anyone know how i can install alx on teh fly? Thanks ahead.

Does the above method also result in changing the OS to that of the Telstra version? For example, I'm on AT&T .167 -- will the above method cause .144 to be loaded?

Anyone?

I tried the Telstra file, but the DM App Loader has the OS Downgrade box checked. Is there any way to add Japanese input other than to up/downgrade from my current OS AT&T .167?

The reason I ask is that my device is on BES and I'd like to not have to re-activate or mess with IT policies.

Thanks!

The Japanese Support works basically the same.

you need to do:
after step 3, Go to PC folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\Shared\Loader Files\9000-v4.6.0.126_P4.0.0.135
find "CJK.alx " in this folder.
open it and find the line " <hidden JPN_Input="True">true</hidden> "
delete this line. save and close the file.

continue with step 4, you can find the Japanese Support section now. choose it and finish the rest of process.

after restart you can read Japanese on your BB.

Hi, i tried ur method, and followed those steps. but i had a problem of finding d folder named "Shared" under the "Research In Motion" folder, i also searched for d CJK.alx file, but it doesnt exist in my PC. Could you help me please?
