    If your phone came from HK, by default, when you master reset the phone, you should have an option to choose chinese during initialization.

    ye that is true, but if u've bought it elsewhere then it won't have chinese language installed and the only way i reckon is to go to hk and get it flashed there. then it should work.

    I doubt that flash files would be made available from other sources apart from SE. Try choosing SE site HK region then do a software update. Besides, you cannot simply add a language pack into the phone even though its a smart phone. The only phones that allow you to do so is Pocket PC.

    you sure it was successfully installed bc SE implemented a system that doesnt update if you have the latest firmware.

    i guess u can flash the phone where they provide an unlocking service. u can def flash in hk. theres like tons of places in hk which do it. not so sure about usa though.
