Nokia Discussion / Nokia Nuron (also for 5230, 5800, etc) - Full Japanese text input & display FREE

1. Install the universal font from here:
“View, work with, translate, and SMS in Every Single language & keep default font”

This enables you to read ALL asian and EU text properly (ie. kanji is displayed properly instead of as rectangular blocks on the screen). This works for russian, EU languages, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, etc.
2. Install M-VK for S60 from here:
http://digilife.bz/blog/?p=2975
This app works on the Nuron, 5230 and 5800 models. It puts a small box with an x in it on the screen when launched. You click and drag it to move it. Click to open, and you get full and 10 key keyboards.
This app EMULATES the actual/real keyboard you get with other Nokia models, such as the N97. You NEED THIS app to enable the Japanese (and other asian) IME (input method editors) to work properly since you don’t have a real keyboard on the Nuron.
Launch it and switch to the M-FEP60 keyboard (you can switch back to the default Nokia AnkFEP keyboard anytime by running this program again and changing it). The popup should say “M-FEP60 Installed” when it’s activated/selected.
3. Install M-FEP60 for S60 3rd:

No, the M-FEP60 for S60 5th isn’t out yet, which is why it won’t work w/o #2 above.
However, once you’ve got #1-#3 installed, run both #2 and #3 – keep them open, don’t exit (ie. press the middle button on the Nuron to leave these running in the background once you’ve got them started).
Naturally, it’s launch and leave running.

Open up anything, Internet, notepad, messaging, and click to enter text. You’ll notice that you’ll have to find the white box with an x in it on your screen, click once to open the keyboard, and then use the on screen keyboard to enter text (ascii).
To switch to Japanese, press shift then spacebar. Now, you can type just like Microsoft Windows IME – enter a word, press spacebar to rotate through hiragana, kanji, katakana, ascii forms of what you typed. Press Enter key on the screen to accept and move to the next word.
Shift+Spacebar to switch back to ascii.

Installing Opera 10.x + Asian Fonts edition (http://mini.opera.com -> select choose custom download link, pick from list) will make browsing even nicer. Japanese is supported very nicely for both display and input, and the Nuron becomes a dream for surfing the net in Asian languages.

As for Chinese or Korean IME’s, don’t know. Try:

You shouldn’t need to install more fonts after #1 above, so you only need to install the FEP of choice.
