MDA II with german OS, what should i do? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi!
I just ordered a MDA II from Germany, and willing to know more
As my country flag indicates, I'm from Finland, and I think the OS' language is german.
How can I update it to english? Will it work with my service provider? (sonera)
I've never had a one single pda, so I'm a big newbie in these things.
Of course I know about the computers more than an average person , but pda's are a mystery to me.
I tried to search some topics about updating,
and found lots of them, and learned a lot too.
But the topics I found did not consider changing the OS's language,
and that's a crucial thing for me, since I don't understand german at all
I would appreciate any help you can give
Thanks!

The language is changed with the update.
If you install a WWE (World Wide English) update your machine will be english.
You might need to change the header info using Er2003edit to let MDA2 think, that you install a german OS.

Hi,
Received my unit 2 weeks ago in german as well.
Just installed the T mobile 1.72 Rom WWE without any changes.
It works great and in ENGLISH !!!

Thanks for help, I'll continue waiting and being hopeful

[HELP] I need help for this....

Hello.
I have a QTEK9090 with Mobile Windows 2003 Second Edition, version 4.21.1088 Build 1045.2.6.0.
I need to know if I can update to WM5 or a version of this same system, I need to know where to obtain the updates and in my natural language that is Spanish, and all necessary software for its correct handling but in Spanish.
I have unloaded from his website several archives, among them the BA_SPA_DT_14003_158_11200, but it is the same version that I have in my QTEK and desire one better version or as I already said to do upgrade to WM5.
Serious of much taste for my all its aid and the Link that can provide me to unload all the needed one, until the manuals.
Thank.
NOTE: If some of you speaks please Spanish I would like that she responds to me in this same language, is not by anything is that to me it becomes difficult to translate so much. :wink:
There is a ton of info on the wiki.

Dopod P100(Chinese) - how to turn into English?

I just buy Dopod P100(Chinese), it is very good to use,
but can anyone teach me how to change it to English??
Because when I sync with my outlook(English), may calendar's appiontment are duplicate, one in chinese, and one in english, so I need to change it to English.
Same problem Here
For those whom are about to take the journey..
This PDA, NOT A PHONE is also know as:
- Qtek G100
- I-mate PDA-N
- HTC Galaxy
- (and some more)
Me and most people are realy here to change Rom language, so..
I am currently living in beijing and bought mine here, and if there is a place you can find anything, BJ is the place. Below what i have been able to do so far.
- Found a UK Qtek G100 english rom, but got an invalid ID when trying to flash it (dah).
- Wrote to dopod support (china) who were absolutely useless.
- Wrote to dopod (Hong Kong) who said they only supported devices sold in HK.
- Searched High and low for an english rom, but no luck.
- Went to some of shops and asked it they could flash the thing but no one had the rom.
My option now: got the grab_it prog in an SD, and am going to look for an english dopod P100 here in BJ.
Other options:
- I think you Hex edit some files in WM5 to change the interface language (but not sure).
- CID unlock the thing so it can accept any rom file.(tips on how to do that would be greatly appreciated)
- Find a kind soul who was an HK Dopod, and ask them do to download the rom from the HK site. (Singing up requires device s/n verification)
- Hack the Qtek g100 rom so I could flash the Dopod.(not sure how to do that)
Anyway, if anyone has any other ideas or has been sucessfull in flashing the thing please let me know.
Changing Qtek G100 from Spanish into English
Have you found a solution? Mine is in Spanish. I have the english RUU but I get an error message when I try to flash it. I'll be in Beijing at the end of December.

First, sorry for my bad English.
I have used this hpRUU to upgrade mi hp iPAQ 6815 from English to Dutch
version and i used Sp35820.
So my Office is Dutch on this moment.
And everything on my PDA is Dutch.
I am very happy with this, it runs like hell...thanks.
But now i have a problem.
I attempt to upgrade Office to a newer version but when i use Dutch then i have an error.
Now i was looking in the hpInventory in the PDA and there i can see:
language: English(WWE) (Taal: Engels (WWE))
Is there a possibility to solve this ?
I want to upgrade Office with the Dutch version.
Or maybe there is a possibility to put WM6 Dutch version on my PDA.
On this moment it is WM5.
Thanks for help.

Language change from German to English

Hallo people,
I bought a Diamond phone which has German language. I can't buy a Diamond with English language in Germany.I would like to change the language into English. Could anyone help me how to do this step by step? Are there any problems if this changing process doesn't work.
Thank you so much for your time and help.
Greetings!
Sony
Same question
I have same question, except that I don't have Diamond yet - but German is only version which I can buy.
I already downloaded official ROM:
RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.37.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26a.25.09_1.00.25.03_Ship.exe
(this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=404571&highlight=official+rom )
Can I use this ROM image to flash German version of phone, without HardSPL? Is this a European version of ROM, that can be installed on every EU phone, regardless of language?
Please help, i realy want to buy Diamond - but don't understand Geman at all, and I'm afraid of "hacking" with hard-spl (at least for now).
Does anyone can answer?

If you wish to update a device with a different language you must use an hardspl hacked.
Or buy a unbranded one, in the language you want.
Ok, thx.
I'm planning to buy unbranded device, without contract, but it's realy hard to find English version in Germany.

Of course you can, here: www.handit.de
They also carry the English version.
Switching from German to English is pretty simple though, you just need to use one of the cooked(or OEM) ROMs available here in the forum. Just make sure they're in English.
Btw: you'll loose your warranty if you're using a cooked ROM or if you're using a non-approved(for your region) OEM ROM, just make sure you're aware of it.

You can also buy it outside Germany.
