I did exactly that, like 100 times, and I'm losing my mind right now!
Editing text in lang file should be simple, right?!
After so many unsuccessful attempts, I assumed there was something else wrong...
I have noticed strange values in info.ini file, in Lang_Serbian_Latin_BD.zip:
name="Srpska latinica od BD
; there is no ending quotation mark above
iso_lang="en-gb"
; it should be "sr-sp"
However, translation works fine with the original file with these incorrect settings in info.ini file (except some missing and incorrect translations that I wanted to fix)!
If I edit anything in info.ini file, iGO PAL crashes immediatelly after starting!
What is strange here is that I select some other language in iGO app and close it. Then I modify info.ini for Serbian language and copy the file to device.
iGO displays "Loading iGO PAL..." for 1 sec and then crashes!
Why this was happening when Serbian language wasn't even selected in iGO?
Then I thought maybe there was some problem with this specific .zip file, so I have tried with few other languages... with the same result.
After I edit Dictionary.lang and select respective language in iGO - it says it needs to restart, and then restarts with English language.
Here are the steps that I performed, many, many times, with different files:
1) Copy perfectly working zip file from content/lang folder from mobile device to PC
2) On PC double click on zip file, which opens with 7-Zip ver. 19.00 (x64)
3) Double click on i18n folder and then on Dictionary.lang file, which opens in Notepad++ ver. 7.8.7 (64-bit)
4) I edit a single line of text (for testing) and close Dictionary.lang file
5) I get prompt in Notepad++ "Save file 'C:\Users...\Dictionary.lang'?" (click Yes)
6) I get prompt in 7-Zip "'Dictionary.lang' was modified. Do you want to update it in the archive?" (click Yes)
7) Copy zip file that I just modified from PC to android device
8) Run iGO PAL, go to Settings/Regional and select the language
9) iGO restarts and displays the interface in English
P.S. I just tried it again with 32-bit versions of 7-Zip and Notepad++... That did not help either.
I have tried this using two Samsung devices, tablet - Android 7.1.1, phone - Android 10.
Any idea what am I doing wrong or what am I missing?
