Thread started: Aug 2 2009, 3:36 PM EDT  Watch
I have just begun using the T-mobile myTouch aka Magic. And when browsing Korean sites will either get the Hangul (Korean fonts) or get boxes or code.try to change encoding I see only 5 or 6 options: Latin, Unicode, rest are Japanese.
How can I obtain and correct this so I can view pages correctly. Also, lieve this may be a problm with songs in the audio player, but have not tried yet.

Thanks for help.
