    Nokia 920, need simplified chinese, not traditional chinese

    No, this does not help. I probably didn't clarify well. First, I will respond to your helpful reply. Second, I will clarify what I am looking for.



    First: yes, if I want to type in simplified Chinese your suggestion solves that problem - that is, changing the keyboard language helps. However, I was looking for a different solution



    Second: I'd like to change my ' Phone Language ' to simplified Chinese. That area is: Settings>Language + Region>Phone Language>((( here, select language ))).



    My Nokia 920 gives me 6-language options to change to:



    1. English

    2. Spanish (Mexico)

    3. French

    4. Portugese (Brazil)

    5. Korean

    6. Chinese (Traditional)



    If I choose (Traditional) Chinese, then my phone language will change to Traditional Chinese. That means, everything I see will be in Traditional Chinese.



    I want to see everything in Simplified Chinese, not Traditional Chinese.

    Traditional Chinese pinyin keyboard in window 10

    How to HanYuPinYin to input Traditional Chinese in Windows 10?

    step 1: In Windows 10 , go to "settings"; "Time &" Language"; "Region & Language"; "Add a language"; "Chinese (Simplied)".

    please note: the (Simplified) includes the Traditional words.

    Step 2: under the "Language", select "中文(中华人民共和国)“;”Options“; ”Keyboards“;select ”Microsoft Pinyin“;”options“。

    Step 3:under ”Microsoft PinYin“, select”Character sets”, choose A character sets from (simplified Chinese) to (Traditional Chinese). The job is done!

    Please note: Although you can use this method to input hanyupinyin and get the traditional Chinese characters, but if you need to switch to Simplified Chinese, you have to go to the step 3 again and change the Character Set from Traditional Chinese to the
    Simplified Chinese. I hope Microsoft or its developers can add some patch to fix it so that in the future, users can easily switch language from English or Chinese Traditional or Chinese Simplified modes.

    Some other people suggested to use HongKong Traditional Chinese and bopomofo keyboard, but you can not select the candidite font (同音字)。I think Microsoft engineer may fix this bug in the future.
