Sometimes, when you turn on the phone, you find out that it simply has Chinese or some other incomprehensible language. In this regard, an urgent question arises, how quickly to your Android smartphone. Sometimes changing the settings helps. More serious solutions involve the use of third-party software or.

So, you bought a new phone made in China and it needs to be translated into Russian. Before adding a language using various applications, it is worth looking at the available settings. Perhaps, the android device already has Russian, and it only needs to be installed.

To do this, you need to find the language settings on your phone. For most phone models, this instruction is identical:

If the standard menu assumes the choice of the Russian language, then the question of how to add the Russian language to the android disappears automatically. If you have thoroughly studied the phone, but you could not find anything like it, you should not despair. There are several more ways to put Russian for Android.

Using a third party application

A Russified phone can be obtained thanks to a special application called Morelocale 2. The only condition for its use is that your phone must have Root superuser rights.

To translate your phone into Russian, follow a few simple steps:

The program works differently on each of the models. It can fully Russify the phone or only partially. In any case, you no longer have to translate the main menu items yourself.

For smartphones without Root rights

How to Russify Android if full access to the file system is closed and you do not have superuser rights? It is possible to make a phone in Russian, but for this, in addition to the above application, you will also need the ADB computer program. It allows you to bypass the limitations of modern devices running the android 4.2+ operating system. Be sure to disable FireWall, antivirus and Windows Defender before proceeding. Because of them, the crack may not work correctly.

Android Russification is as follows:

The effect of these actions is the same as for users with Root rights. This is ideal if for some reason you cannot open full rights for your device. It is also worth noting that this method is performed at the software level. In case, the localization will also be removed.

Installing new firmware

Firmware is a software shell for a device. The user can independently replace the firmware with any one they like, including those with the presence of the Russian language.

This process may differ depending on the device model, OS version and manufacturer, but in general, there are several main points that will help you successfully reflash your phone. The instruction consists of the following steps:

1. Find on the Internet already russified firmware specifically for your model.
2. Download it to the memory card in your phone. The file must be in a ZIP archive. Make sure that the file name contains only Latin letters and numbers.
3. Install a dedicated system recovery application such as ClockWorkMod.
4. If necessary, use this program to back up your data. Select the "backup" menu in the application, and then confirm the selection. Then click "Reboot system now".
5. Put the device into recovery mode by first learning on the Internet how this is done for your model.
6. Select "Wipe". Erase the old operating system.
7. Then select the firmware from the ZIP file in the main menu. The item may have the name "Flash ZIP from SD" or something similar.
8. Specify the firmware previously downloaded to the memory card.
9. Follow the instructions. Wait for the process to finish.
10. If everything went well, select the "Reboot System" item.

After these steps, the phone should be in Russian. How to set it up is indicated in the very first paragraph. Make sure your phone is 100% charged before flashing.

I regularly receive requests to Russify, unlock or flash a popular modification of the smartphone Samsung Galaxy S5... Specifically, models locked for foreign operators AT&T (ATT), T-mobile, Verizon... SM-G900A, SM-G900T, SM-G900V respectively. In fact, this is the same Samsung Galaxy S5. SM-G900F, only with reduced functionality, a bunch of unnecessary pribluds and restrictions. During the initial analysis, it turned out that these models have a locked radio module and, most importantly, a locked bootloader. In theory, software modification is impossible. After examining several foreign forums, it turned out that not all is lost. Strange, but this problem is not discussed on domestic forums. All experiments were carried out directly on SM-G900A based on the information received, this method will work for other models of this line (SM-G900T, SM-G900V, etc. for European, Canadian and Australian operators).

1. First, we get root... Installing the application Towelroot... Launch, poke a single button (make it ra1n), wait for the reboot. (this way you can get root on any SM-G900 and SM-G900F). All the necessary software at the end of the article.

We copy to the built-in flash drive or SD, as you like. Please note that you should not extract the firmware from the archive, it should remain as a zip archive.

4. Install the recovery manager. Download the application Safestrap Recovery... We launch and confirm the installation of the recovery.

5. Reboot, when loading we will see a colorful menu recovery... On the left is the login button, on the right to continue downloading.

6. We enter the recovery menu. The stock slot is active by default. It is assumed that all firmwares are located in slots. And the native firmware in the Stok slot. It is highly recommended to pre-do backup your drain on SD, on PC.

7. Go to the slots menu. Choose Slot-1. We create new disk partitions. The default settings can be left unchanged. The developer assures that they are optimal. After creating a slot, it is recommended to make Wipe (I did not), in the corresponding menu. Note! Slot-1 must be active at the very top of the window, so as not to overwrite your sink slot.(not relevant, but works)

8. Go to the Instal menu and select the firmware zip file we need on the SD card. We do the installation, the procedure is lengthy, please be patient. Note! Slot-1 must be active. The developer does not recommend experimenting with the stock slot.(not relevant, but working)

Checked! Thanks to John Gagarin. You can and should install the firmware into the Stok slot. In this case, you will significantly save free space on the built-in flash drive. And also you will not have a freeze of the body when rebooting or shutting down. Accordingly, if you do as it is written in paragraphs 7 and 8, as a result we will have a bug on any firmware with a hang when trying to reboot or turn off the body. In this case, only juggle the battery.

9.Immediately after installation, we make Wipe the corresponding button in the same menu. And reboot.

The first download will take a long time, about 15 minutes. Now you can enjoy all the delights of the international firmware SM-G900F. Russian menu, Russian language. In this case, the Knox counter does not work and you always have the opportunity to return to the original state of the smartphone.

To unlock SIM SM-G900A had to buy unlock code, as it turned out, an alternative free solution has not yet been found.
