Program for Russification of programs. How to translate an Android application into the desired language automatically Translator of programs into Russian

(editor's choice for localizing "resources")
To make changes to the program, Russify, localize (as you wish), first of all you need to know which program resource you need to edit in order to select an editor with which you can get inside the file and "pick" it. There are many of them, but I did warn you that only "mine" is on the site.
It seemed to me that the most simple to understand and at the same time functional are these:
(I will not go into their description, because they are all Russified and simple in operation, LIKE A RAKE :-) PASSOLO v4.0.004 rus 3.9 Mb (my build)
  • Not without pride - the installer from me PERSONALLY. From what I managed to "dig up" on the net. (Ge-s-s...)

  • PASSOLO v5.0.005 Russian Edition 9.93 MB (my build)
    New release of this unique "russifier"! Oh, and "heaped up" in this new version of the "Hans-burghers" :-)
  • Again - the fruit of my primitive search. Full Russian version + Russian Help (based on Russifier I. Botvin)
    Feel free to forget about my installer v4.0.004rus !!!
    - For reflection: the official "demo version" 24.3 Mb + 4.4 Mb Russifier I. Botvin (many THANK YOU to him for the Russification of the program and even Help). Well, I don’t even mention “for registration” against the background of these 30 Meters.

  • - So decide for yourself - to download or not.
  • The program is intended for localization (Russification) of programs (more precisely, their resources) AUTOMATICALLY, according to ready-made dictionaries (glossaries) ...
    ... stop ... stop ... - this does not mean at all that any "teapot" will install it and begin to Russify everything in a row.
    - Ready-made dictionaries (especially for PASSOLO) created by the efforts of the "leading figure" NyBumBum, based on Microsoft dictionaries (the lowest bow to both).
     NB! "dummies"- with their help, you can only translate "generally accepted" formulations: "Open-Close-Copy-Delete" and so on. The translation of a specific program will require the presence of a "personal" dictionary from the translation of the old version, a similar program, or you will have to translate everything with "handles", and only then the translated can be saved to your own dictionary. Got it?

    Calm ... calm ... (those users who are already familiar with the program).
    - I haven't talked about its benefits yet!
    A LOT of ADVANTAGES !!!, even if you are a "teapot" and started translating for the first time:
    - (once) no need to waste time on "poking" already understandable phrases, such as "Open-Close-Copy-Paste" and so on.
    - (two) many programmers, not differing in originality, use standard sentences from the "Bilya" dictionary to describe errors (therefore, a previously incomprehensible entry in 3-4 lines) will be translated by ONE click on the "auto-translation" button.
    - (three) the program does not just open a resource for translation, but creates a LIST of lines that are possible for translation (here "dummies" usually clap their hands), and everyone else understands why - the possibility of "cutting" - removing or shifting lines is COMPLETELY excluded.
    - (chepyri) if you are already "overwhelmed" by some of the programs and there is a desire to chase after its updates, that is, you can make a separate glossary (dictionary), to simplify the translation of new versions - select the line - click "auto-translate" and the line will be translated "in the image and likeness" stored in your dictionary from previous versions.
    - (five) there are Russian and English spell checkers - to check spelling and correct translation. Well, when the knowledge of the Russian language of the author of the translation leaves much to be desired ... m-m-m much better and 4 ashypkas are made in the word "still" ("ischo" ;-)
    ...Tired... If you really are interested - download and get acquainted with this masterpiece on your own.

    Synthesizer for Russification v2.0 rus 1.3 Mb
    Universal Translator of resources for Russification of programs.

  • A program for auto-translation, and you yourself "teach" it new words and phrases to simplify work in the future.
    - Extract the resource (*.rc) for translation from the program with an editor (eg ResHacker), the program translates it according to the prepared dictionary, and then use the same editor to replace the source of the resource with the translated one in the desired file.
    - After her work, it is MANDATORY to check the quality of the translation (she can translate commands).
  • Stage #2

    (actual localization, editing "resources")
    Then it's a matter of "technique", or rather the availability of free time, perseverance and diligence - you open the necessary file with the editor, find a resource for translation and go ahead - change the hated English letters to the "familiar Cyrillic".
  • Note "dummies" ! It is naturally impossible to translate everything in a row that comes to hand, but only dialog boxes, menu tabs and "hydes" - tooltips. In the first place, from an excess of enthusiasm, it happens that the teams translate :-) Then a penny is worth such a crack - the program does not work at all or only partially.

  • I really hope that you are not a "teapot boy" and using Autotranslators like PROMT, Google, Socrates, etc., you will not stupidly change the contents of the lines to that abracadabra, an obscure, and often meaningless set of phrases that comes from the pen of Autotranslators.
    Respect yourself - take the trouble to formulate the text meaningfully and intelligibly!

    So, the final - Stage number 3

    (Creation of a localization patch)
    A patch is created that will "update", i.e. make changes to the English version of the program when reinstalling, or on another user's computer.   This procedure, in contrast to the Russification process itself, requires only a few minutes. Specify the folder with the "old-source" files and "new-Russian", give the name of the patch being made, press the "OK" button and CЁ... versions.

    Patch Wise free v3.29 rus 2.5 Mb
      Perhaps one of the category of free, or rather the "only" MOST-MOST, in this category.
    Everything is elementary simple:

  • define your settings, graphics and other "pretty things"
  • specify the "old" and "new" folders of the Russified program
  • press "OK"...
  • We drink coffee...
  • The patch-crack is ready!!!

  • Note!- In contrast to the Restaurateur - this patcher is much more profitable in terms of the degree of compression of the produced file, and plus everything, you can change the contents not in one file, but in several at once, and in different folders - let's patch an executable file in the root folder, a couple of dlls from child folders, add Russian help, and finally attach a new "bonus" file, or any other "gag".

    These patchers seemed less attractive to me:


    Clickteam Patch Maker v1.2g rus 500 Kb
    The essence is similar - comparing the original and modified directories and creating a single file.
    - Can process directories and subdirectories, i.e. is able to make changes to various files
    - Can make entries and make changes in the Registry
    - Can make changes to common *.dll - if the library is in use at the time of the change, then the changes will be made on reboot

    Note!- Does not reserve, i.e. does not create a "rollback" of changed files and directories!

    Visual Patch Express v1.0.0 rus 1.5 Mb (I DO NOT RECOMMEND)
      According to the description of the Authors - sort of like a patcher...
    - Perhaps I misunderstood something, I didn’t have time, I couldn’t understand, although I tried different options and every time For some reason the resulting file turned out to be 2 times larger than the source!?

    - He spat, calmed down, merged it here and did not use it anymore.

    Transliterators

    Programs for automatic translation of text using ready-made dictionaries
    They are divided into stand-alone (having their own built-in template dictionaries) and programs that require an Internet connection to work, because they use online glossaries for translation. The most popular, one might say "monster-founder" is, of course, ™PROMT. I know him, he is kept in every way, BUT I don’t like him and “I’ll say here” only about my favorites:

    Socrates Personal v4.1 rus 5.8 Mb
    English-Russian and Russian-English Translator from one language to another.

  • Today it is an old pioneer, from the now large army of Translators, with its own autonomous dictionaries, which has been working flawlessly since the distant 2000s.
  • Personally, I still like it the most, of which I had to use - ™PROMT Prof, Pragma, Word Magic Prof, Abby Lingvo, etc.
    - Automatic translation in both directions of both individual words and the entire selected text, using built-in dictionaries.
    - Select the desired text, copy it, click on the program icon sitting in the tray - a panel opens with two windows, in one of which the text from the buffer has already been inserted, and in the second, a ready-made translation into another language.
  • Today, the range of applications for devices with the Android operating system on board, offered in the Google Play Store online store, is quite extensive so that without any problems we could find here what we currently need.

    However, until now, many applications, and especially new ones that appear here, cannot boast of having translations into all the major languages ​​of the world, not to mention the less common languages. Today I want to tell you about a simple way to fix this situation.

    It will be about how to translate any Android application into almost any of the languages ​​of the world automatically, without user intervention.

    Of course, for this you will need to make a preliminary preparation of your device, which in the end must meet the following requirement:

    Root access

    Installed Xposed Framework

    Operating system: Android 5.0 and above

    Activated mode for installing applications from unknown sources.

    You will find methods for obtaining root on the forums dedicated to your smartphone or tablet model. You can read about what the Xposed Framework is and how to install it on a smartphone or tablet in this material, and you can activate the installation mode from unknown sources in the main system settings menu of your device, in the "Security" section.

    How to translate an Android application into the desired language automatically

    1. Launch Xposed Installer, and in its main menu, which slides out from under the left edge of the display, select "Search for modules"

    2 . In the window that opens, click on the button in the form of a magnifying glass on the application toolbar and type Alltrans in the input field. Click on the search result and select the latest (or any other) version of the module.

    3. After installing the module, you will need to activate it as usual. You can do this in the “installed” menu section of the Xposed Installer application by checking the box next to the module you just downloaded. Reboot your device to complete the installation.

    4. After the reboot, you will see that an icon has appeared in the application drawer of your smartphone or tablet. AllTrans. Run it.

    The main window of the module will open as follows, with three tabs:

    On the first one with the name “Translation Applications”, you need to select from the list of applications installed on your device those that require translation.

    On the second tab "Global Options" you will find a list of module settings. Here you need to make sure that the module is enabled (the topmost switch in the list), set the language (or languages) from which you need to translate applications (the “Translate from language” item), the language into which you need to translate (the “Translate into language” item) , and select a translation system.

    5 . To select a translation system, set the switch to the "On" position opposite the "Use Yandex instead of Microsoft" item. If you wish, you can also use the Microsoft translator, but you will need to highlight your credit card number, which, however, will not be required to be paid.

    6 . Enter the Yandex subscription key

    In order to get a Yandex subscription key, go to this address and enter your Yandex credentials (register if you don't have them).

    In the window that opens, check the box next to "I have read the User Agreement and agree to the terms of service." and click on the "Get API Key" button:

    Copy the text of the key from the Yandex website and paste it into the input field that appears when you click on the AllTrans settings menu item with the name "Yandex subscription key".

    That's it, you have set up AllTrans, and congratulations: now your smartphone or tablet will automatically translate applications from the language that you set in the AllTrans settings to the language you need.

    Of course, the quality of the translation will be far from what a human translator can offer us today, but still it is much better than understanding an application made in a completely unfamiliar language.

    Most mobile phones and tablets with the Android operating system sold on our market already have Russification built into the firmware. Even in Chinese smartphones of second-tier companies, their manufacturers are trying to localize the interface of the system and installed programs, including into Russian. Unfortunately, in practice there are still cases when a phone or tablet of a little-known company ordered from China comes with firmware in which the Chinese language is installed, and at best you can change it to English or one of the most common Western European languages. For some users who are fluent in foreign languages, this may not seem like a problem. But we think that most buyers would like to install their native language on their device and enjoy all its advantages.

    Today we will tell you, dear readers, how to translate your Android into Russian. If you are one of the owners of the aforementioned mobile or tablet with an unfriendly interface, this article is written for you.

    How to check the presence of the Russian language in the operating system

    We assume, dear user, that since you are reading this article, you have already checked the settings of your Android device and made sure that the Russian language is not in the selection list. But if you still forgot to do this, check the availability of the Russian-language OS interface right now. Go to the menu item "Settings" of your phone or tablet and then select the item "Language & keyboard". In the menu that opens, select the first item "Select language" and check the list of available languages ​​for the presence of Russian there. If it is missing in the system - it's time to install it, correcting this annoying flaw.

    Russification of Android keyboard only

    Some users are ready to put up with the fact that the firmware of their device or the interface of some programs do not have Russian localization, but they need at least Russification of the on-screen keyboard. After all, typing, social networking, sending messages, etc. in Latin are at least unreadable for those who will receive these messages. For such users, the solution may simply be to install a keyboard with Russian language support in the system. There are a lot of similar keyboards for Android, because, in fact, the keyboard is a regular program that you can download and install on your phone or tablet.

    On the Google Play Market for the search query "keyboard" you can always find something suitable. One of the popular ones is SwiftKey Keyboard, which has support for Russian and Ukrainian languages. But you can choose any other keyboard to your liking, experiment. Installing applications from the Google Play market is described in detail on our portal at.

    After installing the new keyboard, you just have to follow the path "Settings" ->

    "Language & keyboard" and check the box for the keyboard we just installed. If necessary, you can click on the name of this keyboard and in the list of parameters that appears, make the desired settings for the program. Now you can type texts in any application in Russian.

    How to Russify android (for Android up to version 4.2)

    For many users, the conditional Russification given in the sections above is unlikely to be fully satisfied, and they will want their Android phone or tablet to communicate with them completely in Russian. You can do this, and now we will tell you how to translate Android into Russian completely if your phone or tablet has an old version of the operating system.

    The most popular application for localizing Android firmware is MoreLocale 2, available for download on Google Play.

    Download the program from there or install it on your mobile device in any way. Further, in order to install the Russian language in your system, you need to perform the following sequence of actions:

    Run MoreLocale 2 and select the green item "Custom locale" in the program window;

    In the window that appears after this, you must press the "ISO" button, located next to the menu item "Language", and select the language "Russian" there;

    After that, press the "ISO" button, located opposite the next menu item "Country", and select "Russian Federation" from the list of countries;

    Press the "Set" button to confirm your choice;

    You can enjoy full localization, your phone or tablet has learned to speak Russian.

    Please note: if the applications installed in the operating system do not have the Russian language initially, MoreLocale 2 will not be able to Russify them. Perhaps, in this case, your operating system will not be fully Russified. But is it better than nothing?

    In addition, using the method above, you must consider the following: due to the changed rules for making changes to the OS configuration, this method will not work on firmwareAndroid from version 4.2.x and older. How to transfer devices with new versions of Android, read on.

    How to Russify android 4.2 and higher

    Full Russification of the entire Android operating system version 4.2.x and higher is fraught with some difficulties, but there are no such difficulties that a real enthusiast of the Android system cannot overcome, right?

    To begin with, let's say that on Google Play there is a Set Locale & Language program that allows you to set the system language, even if it is not in the firmware. The developers claim that it can localize even Android version 4.2.x and older.

    True, many users complain that the Set Locale & Language program does not always work stably, and localization settings may disappear after the application is restarted. Only one recommendation can help here: try, try, and hope that you are lucky and your device is localized reliably.

    But if the previous method turned out to be useless for you, now we will teach you another method on how to translate the system language of your phone or tablet into Russian. This method was originally invented for HTC smartphones, but it also works great for other phones or tablets in many cases.

    To Russify new versions of the Android OS, we will need to download the adb program and install it on our computer. In addition, in this case, it is also necessary to install the More Locale 2 application, which has already been discussed above. Also install drivers for your smartphone or tablet on your PC. To Russify your Android device, follow the instructions below:

    1. Enable the "USB debugging" mode on your device (Program menu -> "Settings" -> "Developer options" -> "USB debugging"). If the item "Developer options" in the menu on your device is missing, you need to find the item "About phone" in the "Settings" menu and click on the model name of the device or on the firmware version ten times in a row. "Developer options" will appear in the settings menu;

    2. The ADB program must be unpacked on the computer to the root of the C: drive (the path to the executable file should be: C:\adb\adb.exe);

    3. Connect your Android device to your computer;

    4. Launch the command line application on the PC by running cmd.exe;

    5. Enter a command cd c:\adb to go to folder c:\adb\;

    6. To search for your smartphone, enter the commandadb devices ;

    7. The program should give the ID of your device below under the line " List of devices attached ";

    8. Enter command

    adb shell pm grant jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION

    9. Make Sure, what in window appeared answer programs

    lo cale android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION;

    10. If we made a mistake in the command syntax, the system will display a message using the pm command. In this case, you need to carefully repeat the command again.

    11. Disconnect your Android device from your computer and launch the MoreLocale 2 program.

    12. Repeat the sequence of steps for Russifying the firmware using MoreLocale 2, indicated in the previous section.

    If your phone or tablet is not found by the ADB program, and next to its identifier you see the inscription "offline", this means that your version of ADB is outdated for this model. Download the Android SDK and install it on your computer. In the /platform-tools/ folder you will find the latest version of ADB.

    Please note that this localization method (like the method for Adroid before 4.2.x) works at the program level, and not at the operating system level. That's why if you do , your localization will fail, and to get the Russian language after resetting the settings, you will have to do everything all over again.

    As you can see, it is not always easy to localize new mobile devices with fresh Android firmware. The only good news is that even little-known Chinese mobile phone developers are already paying attention to the Russian-speaking user market, and phone or tablet models that lack Russian localization are becoming rarer and rarer. For the majority of modern devices, it is usually possible to find, if not official, then at least custom (custom) firmware, into which the Russian language will be built. We hope your new mobile on Android OS will be just like that!

    Applications or games are initially developed taking into account the specifics of their use in a certain region of the world. That is why in many cases such a product may have an interface designed exclusively for Western languages. But not every user can boast of a thorough knowledge of the same English. What to do in this case? Here a program for the Russification of programs or even operating systems will come to the rescue. Creating such a program yourself or downloading it from the Internet is very simple.

    What is a program for Russification of programs and systems

    If we talk about what these programs are, in most cases referred to as crackers, they can be conditionally divided into several types. First of all, these are special language packs, either supplied by the developer complete with the main software, or additional utilities available for download from the Internet, or third-party applications already created by someone or allowing you to create a localization yourself.

    In terms of their principles of operation, they do not differ much. But each program for the Russification of programs, games or systems has its own characteristics and distinctive features.

    Principles of operation of Russifiers

    It is believed that the main task of any cracker is to change the language of the graphical interface of an application or operating system, the names of menus and commands, etc. For computer games, this concept is somewhat expanded, since they also need to translate into Russian the dialogues presented in the form of sound files, or the subtitles used in the game.

    As a rule, any program for Russification of programs allows you to change the language of compiled files such as EXE or CHM, dynamic libraries DLL and other specific formats in which information to be translated can be stored.

    What is most interesting, such a program for Russification of programs, like CHM Editor, allows you to modify the corresponding files using built-in service tools, and even without the need to extract data using, say, the Disassembler application with recompilation upon completion. In addition, you can create a crack yourself, without even going into the technical aspects of all processes. If you don't like something in the final file, you can easily restore the original.

    In general, if you use free crackers (ready-made programs), you should first pay attention to whether they are supplied with the software product itself. These are usually special language packs called Language Packs.

    If there is no such package, the solution can be found on the Internet, since there are many similar utilities, not only freely distributed by the developers of a particular software product, but also created by enthusiasts of this business. True, there are some nuances, which will be discussed below.

    Russification of games

    Unfortunately, the correct Russification of many popular games is a sore spot in the computer world. Very often you can find a completely incorrect translation. menus and commands, as a rule, do not cause any complaints, but the sound dubbing often leaves much to be desired.

    This is where some official or unofficial program for the Russification of games comes in handy. It is believed that the best option would be to search for, so to speak, complete software, which includes the original crack or an additional language module. In any case, you should first make a “backup”, and only then install the Russian language.

    Very often, some errors that are imperceptible at the initial stages can appear at higher levels. Deleting a backup copy is not recommended, since, as a rule, installing a crack is an irreversible process.

    Russification of application programs

    With applied software products, the situation is somewhat simpler in the sense that only files containing text will have to be replaced here. In most cases, they take up to several tens of megabytes on the disk. At the same time, you will need to download only text files of Russification, not counting the main EXE file. The task in this case will be reduced only to replacing the original files with text with new ones (Russified), which is what many free Russifiers do.

    It is not always possible to find original versions, it is enthusiasts who are more involved in this. That's why you can often find several versions of localization of the same software product. Yes, take at least the situation with the Russification of the interface of the popular FL Studio sequencer.

    Russification of Windows

    As for the operating systems of the Windows family, there are also several main ways to completely Russify the interface.

    The first thing you should pay attention to the choice of language in the process of installing the system. It is clear that Microsoft initially includes many languages ​​​​of the world in its products. Everything is simple here: you just need to specify the use of the Russian language in the initial settings, but in most cases this is not required, since almost all of our installation distributions are already Russified.

    If the user has a clean version of Windows, say, designed for use in the US, there is also a way out. No "native" or third-party crackers are even needed here.

    You just need to use the standard "Control Panel", where the Region and Language item is selected, and then the Language and Keyboards menu is used. Further, the desired language (Russian) is simply added. After the message that appears, the Install Display Languages ​​command is selected and the Run Windows Update installation method is selected, in which the transition to the Windows Languages ​​Packs language pack is performed. We confirm the choice and wait for the end of the process. Again, go to the Language and Keyboards menu and select the desired language. A system restart is required for the changes to take effect.

    However, many consider the easiest way to use the Vistalizator utility, which does not require installation (portable version). You can download it from the developer's website for free. In addition, you will also need to separately download the Russian-language package. After launching, the application simply selects the desired language for the Windows system and indicates the path to the downloaded crack file. Everything works even without reboot.

    Russification of mobile systems

    Programs for Russification of phones have long ceased to be something out of the ordinary. Today you can find just a huge number of them. However, there is no need to rush to use them, especially if they are downloaded from an unreliable source. For example, the same program for the Russification of Android may not be required at all, because the developers of mobile technology often already include the use of the Russian language in the capabilities of their gadgets with this OS on board.

    The easiest way to Russify can be to use the settings (Settings) in the main menu, where the item Languages ​​and Keyboards is selected, and then the system language (System Language). The Russian language is simply displayed here. That, in fact, is all.

    Another thing is if there is no support for the Russian language. In the Play Market, you can download the MoreLocale 2 utility, after installing and running which you just need to select the desired language (in our case, Russian). Within about ten seconds, the system will be completely Russified.

    Creating a localizer manually

    It goes without saying that you can create the crack yourself. One program has already been mentioned. But the Restorator application is considered the best application for all types of files.

    It is very easy to use, russified patch files have a minimum volume, and besides, they are temporary (if they are not in demand, they can be safely deleted). And there is no need to create backup copies of the original files. However, you can deal with this application in a few minutes.

    What you need to know before installing the crack

    Finally, it is worth noting that not all crackers work perfectly correctly. This is especially true in games and application software. Therefore, before installing the crack, you need to make sure that it is designed specifically for the version that is present on your computer or mobile gadget. Otherwise, not only the crack, but also the application itself, on which it was installed, simply will not work. In addition, the main program will “fly”, so you have to reinstall it.

    In this article we will touch on an interesting topic - how to Russify software. This activity, as a rule, should be done by the software developers themselves, and everyone knows this. This is especially true for popular software, such as the Windows operating system and other programs, like well-known browsers. If such programs would not have a Russian-language interface, then you can find a replacement without problems.

    And what to do with programs that are aimed at a narrow specialty? Some of them may be paid, and not have the Russian language. If you do not know the language into which the program is translated, then working with it can be difficult.

    In this article I will try to show the ways in which you can Russify any software.

    The first solution is the use of cracks

    If there is no version of the program in the language you need, you can find a special crack on the Internet. The disadvantages of this method are the following:

    • The absence of the localizer itself;
    • Translation is not done by developers, but by other people who do not care about the quality of translation;
    • There is no clear sequence of the procedure for Russification of the program (this is less common);
    • Often, instead of a crack, you can download a virus.

    Of course, now "cunning" scammers are looking for other ways to spread their viral creations, because many resources for downloading cracks that have a viral component are blocked by search engines. They can promote their programs by low-frequency requests for a specific program, or use other distribution methods.

    It is not recommended to send messages to some number to download the crack. Downloaded files are immediately checked by antivirus or special programs. You can check through online services, where the check is performed by several dozen antiviruses.

    Program for Russification of programs in a foreign language

    There are many programs that can translate the interface of another program into the language you need. Many of them are distributed on a paid basis and their price is far from cheap, for example, Radialix or SDL Passolo.


    Even with such programs on hand, you may encounter certain difficulties, for example, the program is in the wrong language, difficulties in working, you often need to translate individual words and phrases by hand.

    As a free program, you can use Resource Hacker, which can translate, although not the entire interface, but the menu items easily. Only you will have to do it manually, after translating foreign words.

    In order not to deal with manual translation of programs, you can use tools that can translate text from the monitor screen. A similar utility for translating everything from the screen is QTranslate. She uses Google Translate and others as a translator.

    Here is the download link. By the way, the program is free. But I will tell you how to work with it in the next article.


    Other methods for solving problems with Russification

    There is no such way that you could perfectly Russify a product. Maybe you don't want to mess around with the methods I listed above. Then you can contact the creators of the program directly and ask them to Russify it. Usually, developers create and update the interface based on feedback and suggestions from users, so it's in their best interest to follow up on your request. Thus, the program will be adapted not only for you, but also for other users who would like the same.
