How to install Chinese or Korean

2077775 4 months ago

Hi. I bought an Instinct 2 in the US.
When I text with my American friends, there is no problem,
but when I receive texts from Koreans or Chinese, the fonts are all broken.
Is there any way to install the corresponding language fonts on the Instinct?

For Chinese and Korean you need the APAC model of Instinct 2. Standard Instinct 2 does not support East Asian languages, only Instinct 2X and Instinct Crossover do.

I was thinking that I could just edit the ln file and put it in.

It would not help you, since the standard models do not have the Asian fonts.

Have somebody tried to install APAC firmware on non-APAC watch?

Thank you for your reply trux.
I was thinking that I could just edit the ln file and put it in.

Reason: Since the ln file format is set to [code+language], I had a vague idea that I could just translate the language part and put it in.

You can test it, but it does not work. The incompatible firmware update file is simply ignored and removed from the watch.

Nah, can't test, got only I2XT, in only existing WW version
