Hi everybody. Not yet bought such a device as I have first to understand wheter it is possible to install a Japanese windows. I need it to be able to read and write japanese characters and don't find a place where to find a device already equipped with such a software.
Also, does anyone know where an image of a japanese windows might be obtained ?
Thanks in advance to any one who will help.
Do you want to read/write Japanese, or for the entire OS to become Japanese?
If it's the former, you need the fonts containing Kanji, a set of registry entries to default fonts without unicode kanji chars to the Kanji fonts, and an IME that can do Kanji. A kanji dictionary is also useful.
If it's the latter, you need a Japanese ROM, and I doubt these devices have been released in Japan becauase of the different cell phone network protocols there.
More info on Fonts/IME/Dictionary here:

So, on using the phone in Japan...
Thanks Andy, nice of you and, excellent and pertaining answer. Let me go straight to my problem. I have to go to Japan for business and hope to use this device as a phone and as an e-mailer machine. You've answered for Kanji Hiragana and so on. I know that Japan uses W-DCMA as a protocol. Does anyone knows if it is possible to place a japanese SIM into it to make it operative there ?
An alternative would be to connect it (via BlueTooth) to a rent japanese phone, just for the e-mail.
Any Japanese reading this forum might pls, help?
Thanks in advance
Japanese on the English OS
i am japanese guy, and have been used Wallby--Himalaya--Blue Angel--Mini,with japanese language(OS is english, but can write/read/encoding to JP)
and also now tring to be localized Magneto WM2005.
i am very famouse guy (i hope) of the Japan/China Localization of English PPC.
To use Jpanese on ENG OS, need Japan font, replacing wince.nls=encoding inbox and IE,also font registry files, and encoding registry.
follows are my web site to show how i am fighting to be localize.(Japanese)

I was in Japan last year for 3 weeks holiday (fantastic!), but my XDAII certainly wasn't able to connect to anything GSM/GPRS like over there. It was still invaluable to have as a PDA because of the Kanji dictionary program.
I hired a J-Phone temporarily while I was out there, but I don't know whether there are Bluetooth enabled ones out there allow the XDA to use the phone as a data modem.
Asukal - interesting website, I must parctice my Japanese more!

Japan has no GSM, but has a W-CDMA, you can use W-CDMA phone with your country SIM card and W-CDMA/GSM dual Mobile Phone(such like a nokia 7600/6630). we have very few mobile Phone with Bluetooth in japan. so you had better bring your M Phone in japan.
while i am in japan,i use XdaO2 IIs+Nokia 7600 with china GSM SIM. it was not officail roaming (china Moble Co also dont know how to do), but it can be done. also Hong Kong SIM can.
if you wish to hire J-Phone<now they are Vodafon japan>, Nokia6630 and Sonny erricoson are available with Bluetooth. but those phone were sim locked. your own SIM will be rejected and must use J-Phone`s.
i am very await for the MDA-4 with W-CDMA will comming!
Thank you.
Thank you Andy. Thank you Asukal. You guys, have made me understand the matter. Now I understand that I have either to have an MDA IV (as soon as it is available) or have an MDA III plus a phone like a Nokia 6630 for when I am to Japan.
Thanks again, have a nice day.
Welcome to Japan
Mr,spinzolone>>>>
MDA IV, if it come with New OS WM2005, i can`t guarantee to enable Japanese encoding internet browsing and e-mail inbox .
In my test with Beta-WM2005,(also another chinese friend so) still cant do it currentry. but i hope it will be solved soon.
Asukal: One quick question - I'm having problems with my font-linking, notably "\". Do you have any idea what might be wrong?
I'm using XDAII, PPC2003, with the ttc font collections rather than individual files. I've checked your registry files and the linking information seem the same as mine.
Hints for Japan ...
Dear Asukal, so do you think that with a iPAQ MM2003(first or second edition) patched for displaying japanese characters, and a Nokia 6630 I'll be able to send/receive e-mail while in Japan?
And, for a matter of costs, would you suggest to buy a SIM in Japan rather than roaming from Japan to Italy?
Any other hint for a European guy?
Thanks again a lot. Domo arigato

i e-mailed u last night about Japanese input Atok, also i made cab files of another Japanese SIP "POBOX" which has predictive input system.
Just tap this CAB to install,Reginal setting must be Japanese when you install and use this.(also only can use after Localize to Japan)
down load from here
http://www.asukal.jp/JapanSIP.cab
about SIM in Japan, Japan has no prepaid SIM card. you must make conract for a year! it was cost and troublesome for forginer.(ask some japanese friend to buy his name, US$100 at the first and US$30 per every mounth. One year contract.
So i suggest use your italy SIM.
Thanks a lot Asukal, it was a joy to me to receive your quick reply yesterday evening. I've followed you suggestions and now I have a HP hx2410 - Windows Mobile 2003 se v. 4.21 perfectly "japanized".
Showed it to the Japanese manager who's going to use it and he was very satisfied.
P.S. We were told from a japanese guy that, when we go to Japa we can make contract with DOCOMO or VODAFONE. Particularly with DOCOMO, asking for a contrat FOMA we should receive a SIM card.
You know, it is not that I want to have SIM cards. To me it's enough that my phone NOKIA 6630 works there. But I'm to send a manager there and I'd better instruct him on what to do to make connections in Japan.
If you could confirm that, no matter which contract (with or without SIM card), we can work, this would bring a smile on our faces.
Have a nice day

Many Kinds of English ROM were uploaded to XdaO2-Developers.com,
You can download and write engish rom on your chinese rom.
You can srech relative thread about that(for link of DL, or how to write rom)
If i had time, i can find for you but now i am on business travel now, no time to do.
Or you sale it and buy again! because if you re-write rom, no more guarantte by devise vender.

You can yuse Monstar SIP(only SIP) or some other input system.

Ok. I decided to write a short tutorial (because it is very very SIMPLE!!! ), how to upgrade any of the ROMs to any of Universal (jasjar, exec, qtek...), because I found 70% of the Universal upgrading etc forum posts are something like: "I can't upgrdae...", "I get an error message..." "coutry ID error..", etc.
1. Download the ROM you want to install
2. Best way to use winRAR to unpack it to a folder
3. There are 3 ROMs in the package: ms_.nbf (ExtendedROM), nk.nbf (CE ROM), radio_.nbf (Radio ROM)
4. Select those (from between this 3 ROMs) which you don't want to install
5. Delete these
6. Copy to the folder my attached file (MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe). This is the file which makes the install workable for all models of Universal.
7. Make your Universal in bootloader mode. (Push Light button + Power button + resetbutton at the same time) A lot of people get error message at the first time if they were not in bootloader mode. Those people can install the ROM the second time. If you are in bootloader mode you won't get error message.
8. Doubleclick to MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. A window come up with the old ROMs and the new ROMs which will be upgraded. When this windows comes up, it is very important to wait a few seconds (5sec is enough) before you push the upgrade button.
9. Upgrade.
10. Wait until the installation program says in a window: Congratulations. Push OK button.
11. Pull out the USB cable from the Universal.
12. Do a cold reset (push the two menu buttons ("-") on the keyboard + the reset button at the same time (all of this three)
13. Everything should be fine from this time. You have to calibrate the screen and do some tutorial...
(14. If you want your Universal not to install ExtendedROM, make a softreset after setup is complete. (a popup window pops up you have 3 seconds before it installs ExtendedROM))
That's it.
It woked for me anytime in any case with any of Universals.
I hope this will help for lots of people.
Cheers
Cool! 8)
This way I see it is that there are many people out there with these (and many other) basic questions that want answering and indeed the same questions keep cropping up. A post like this is great BUT it's visibility only lasts a couple of days untill it gets swamped by more recent threads - I don't see the mod's stickying anything!!!!!
Hence: this forum could be SO much better if each section had a GUIDES area where people can submit threads like this!

Okay. It seems you did not read my first post.
To put your Universal into bootloader mode, read 7th point.
And how do you know you are in bootloader mode?
You can see just a blank screen with the title serial or USB on the top and something like v1.00 on the bottom. You will recognize it.
I hope :?

I just posted some instructions on Wiki - I hope they help
Per the suggestion, I just posted some instructions on Wiki. Take a look an see what you think. Hopefully more can be added and these can be refined to be more understandable. At least it's a start.
Here is the Wiki Universal page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal
This is the three I added, under How to upgrade to the latest ROM (currently 1.30.68)
Detailed Instruction On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...tion On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method

Instructions for those with Country Code error http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Instructions for those with Country Code error
Cool!
olliesshop, if you want you can use my tutorial to add more things to the wiki site. I think mixing of your and mine tutorial would be enough for the most helpless people too. I missed from mine removeing SD and SIM card, and not to use USB hub.
I hope, one day people will understand this very very "sofisticated" method.
To Deiota It looks like when you are in bootloader mode without things in the center. (But there are when you completed the upgrade.)
Hello!
Thanks you all for your help!
I've already did the upgrade! But I have a "stupid" (maybe) question.
When I was upgrading my Qtek 9000 with JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.exe, it appeard a photo of a I-mate PDA, but not Jasjar. Is it OK? Is this ROM for my Qtek 9000 (or Jasjar)?
I realized that the package software that comes with I-mate is best, at least more complete then Qtek! Another thing, why or how is it possible that the same device, comes with WM5 (both) and some features included in I-mate and not in Qtek. I'm talking about the "Device unlocked" that happears in the Today Screen.
I just want to confirm that this ROM is right for me, and that It is best than my Qtek Original one!
Should be ok
From what I understand this imate ROM upgrade should work for all the HTC Universal phones, including; Universal Dopod 900 / Qtek 9000 / MDA Pro / I-mate JASJAR / O2 Xda Exec / SPV M5000 / Qtek v1640. What's amusing is when I did the upgrade to my imate Jasjar it got locked on the blue splash screen (the one with the imate logo) and now I had to ship it in for Warranty service ... time since failure 5 days and counting. I expect it back end of next week at the earliest.
I'm glad it worked for you !!!

All the models have just different names but totally the same hardware (with just different paintings) because there are different service providers who want to sell it. Each service provider has a fantasy-name like O2 service provider sells it as Exec, Qtek sells it as 9000, i-mate sells it as Jasjar...
Clear?
off topic, sorry
Yo!
@Tuningszocske,
yeah there is a scene in Shawshank where Andy is trying to get money to build a library so he asks the Governor if he can write a letter - to which he agrees 'write as many as you want':
So he does: One a day. Every day. Unitl he actually gets a response, which effectively says: 'Here's $200, now go away' - So he writes TWO letters every day!!!!! Guess what? He eventually gets what he wants. :lol: This is the parallel I was making re: continually 'bumping' this thread.
The squeaky wheel always gets the grease!
Andy
Not really!
well, first I want to be sure that the Rom JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.exe is the right for me, since the screen that appear while upgrading has a I-mate K-Jam or something!
Second, I understand that the Software that come with one can be different from another, has it happens here!
But the MAIN Windows Mobile 5, I don't understand how...
The main thing I noticed is the "device unlocked" on today screen...
My usband has a Mio A210 that has WM5 and has the same Today item, "device unlocked". My question is why the Wtek version of Rom doesn't have uit? New version of WM5? Old one? Just different?
Txs,

I just want to confirm that this ROM is right for me, and that It is best than my Qtek Original one!

All the models have just different names but totally the same hardware (with just different paintings) because there are different service providers who want to sell it. Each service provider has a fantasy-name like O2 service provider sells it as Exec, Qtek sells it as 9000, i-mate sells it as Jasjar...
Clear?

Cool!
olliesshop, if you want you can use my tutorial to add more things to the wiki site. I think mixing of your and mine tutorial would be enough for the most helpless people too. I missed from mine removeing SD and SIM card, and not to use USB hub.
I hope, one day people will understand this very very "sofisticated" method.

Take a look http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal . I updated the "Detailed Instruction On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method" instructions, by merging both. Also, your instructions are shown "as written" in the "Instructions for those with Country Code error". I hope this helps folks.

@Tuningszocske,
yeah there is a scene in Shawshank where Andy is trying to get money to build a library so he asks the Governor if he can write a letter - to which he agrees 'write as many as you want':
So he does: One a day. Every day. Unitl he actually gets a response, which effectively says: 'Here's $200, now go away' - So he writes TWO letters every day!!!!! Guess what? He eventually gets what he wants. :lol: This is the parallel I was making re: continually 'bumping' this thread.
The squeaky wheel always gets the grease!

Hey Under!
I understand now I saw this film a long time ago. I can remember a little bit more now.

Not really!
well, first I want to be sure that the Rom JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.exe is the right for me, since the screen that appear while upgrading has a I-mate K-Jam or something!
Second, I understand that the Software that come with one can be different from another, has it happens here!
But the MAIN Windows Mobile 5, I don't understand how...
The main thing I noticed is the "device unlocked" on today screen...
My usband has a Mio A210 that has WM5 and has the same Today item, "device unlocked". My question is why the Wtek version of Rom doesn't have uit? New version of WM5? Old one? Just different?
Txs,

Deiota!
For your first question: YES IT IS A RIGHT ROM FOR YOUR DEVICE. JUST COME FROM ANOTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS. DON'T BE AFRAID YOU WON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH IT!
For second: yes, it might be that your husband has a different version of wm5. It is something like there are many types of laptops, and there are many types of windows, and you can choose which windows you install on which laptop, but you cannot install windows on a macintosh (apple) hardware or a TabletPC, which is something similar than a normal laptop, but with a few specialities. Qtek9000/O2Exec/i-mate Jasjar... has the same hadrware like a Dell/Toshiba/HP laptops with totally the same hardware inside (same RAM size, same videocard type and capacity, same harddisk...)
So, do it.
I wouldn't injure you not for the soul of me, but if after these tutorial you don't understand the procedure, you should ask somebody to do it before you make an irreversible error during upgrading!!!! IT IS DANGEROUS,YOU CAN MAKE YOUR DEVICE TOTALLY UNUSEABLE!
Hi everyone...
I find it unbelievable that there is not so much work around this recent HTC product in this forum, yet.
I got mine last week and I found many differences between my previous Motorola MPx220 (which was running WM2003 SE) and this one.
Since I also had an Himalaya, a Blue Angel, a Magician, a Wizard and now an Universal, I'm quite used to have an "EXTENDED ROM"...
Does anyone know how to get it showing ? I can work on registry myself, but since I don't know PERFECTLY where to place my hands, a GURU suggestion would greatly help.
Also I found something very weird: I was used to move link files within the folder "\Windows\Start Menu", creating subfolders to access more easily to the programs and/or function I needed more...
On the StrTrk I found it is still possible to create subfolders within the Start Menu, but I cannot move the link files within the folders themeselves. They appear somewhat blocked (and it does not seems an attributes matter...). Any hint ?
BTW: I'm using it in Italy with a VODAFONE SIM card which is my "home network"... The phone reports me being roaming in a foreign network... Very strange...
Thank you to any reply...
Ciao
Good morning everyone.
I purchased my first touch diamond last week here in Japan with the EMoblie provider. I also downloaded a "rom" from my unit and it has 3 files. Now what shall I do next? Is that already consider as "rom" which I can re-install in the future to roll back the machine to the initial state?
Since I am purchased this one here in Japan, all system are written in Japanese. Is there any Traditional Chinese rom (From Taiwan) available here? Or is there any applications or way I can do so that my Japanese Diamond can read and write a chinese characters?
And also, there are some customized application like GPS and other Japan local applications. How can I extract those application from the unit?
Thank you and good day

Welcome to XDA. I too had these questions at one time. The best way to find an answer is to hit the search button in the top right.
Next, read the STICKY'd threads at the top of this forum. Hopefully by this time tomorrow night you will be texting your buddies in Taiwan with pin yin input on your HardSPL'd and custom ROM diamond.
Hi there!
I apoplogize if my Google-Fu is weak and something similar has been posted before, but I personally couldn't find it, so here it goes:
I am in a little bit of a tigh spot atm.
Here comes the sob story, feel free to skip this to get to the actual question at hand:
I am currently on Softbank in Japan, want to get a HTC smartphone (not the dumbed down stuff they try to sell you here) so the plan WAS as follows:
1. Get an unlocked Touch Pro
2. Get the Full Data Flat Rate
3. Setup the open.softbank connection, MMSLite and all the other good stuff posted here by guys who gave a total noob the confidence that it can be made to work
So the Touch Pro was ordered, the subscription changed (will be effective of September 11th - yeah, I know, ominous date *sigh), the neccessary .cab files downloaded and anticipation set in.
Today I got the bad news that the online store that sold me the Raphael was actually out of stock (despite the fact that it doesn't show up on their website, they confirmed the order and I made the payment last friday). After having an attorney in our company threaten them that he would have all their bank accounts frozen if they didn't refund me within an hour I got the cash back within 10 minutes, so no money lost.
BUT
As far as I can search, I cannot find an online store that will actually sell you a Raphael for less than 100.000 Yen or thereabouts, yet Rhodiums are in abundance and at an expectable price of 80.000 - 90.000 Yen (that is what I could dig up on short notice). So it looks as if I "have to" get a Rhodium, since I physically refuse to fork over that much money for a Raphael.
Now for the actual matter at hand for those who are busy:
From what I can tell the bright heads here have been able to get a Raphael to work near perfect in Japan (i.e. use the flat-rate properly, get MMS to work via MMSLite303, read and write Japanese etc.) BUT apparently the same cannot be said for the Rhodium from what I could gather with my possibly weak Google-Fu. The connection set-up seems to work but regarding MMS and Japanese input everything appears to be still under development. I know it will get fixed eventually, (still, I want to be able to confidently step up to the iSheep surrounding me and laugh in their face )
So what's the current status on getting a Rhodium to work the same way as a Raphael on Softbank in Japan?
Any help will be highly appreciated!
EDIT
Yes, it is possible. Got the phone yesterday, set up everything and it works like a charm. So if you are in the market for a Rhodium in Japan: Do it!
And once you're finishied, be nice and say thank you to all the people who racked their brains and originally came up with the solution and then put it into nice and easy .cab files like BeeGee_Tokyo, Shunsai, Larsuck, Asukal and many many more

Check my website. All I wrote there is at the moment working on my TOPAZ aka Diamond 2 under WM 6.1.
Should be no problem to apply the same to a Rhodium.
Yeah, BeeGee's site was pretty helpful to me (i'm using the rhodium in japan too btw).
i haven't gotten my first bill yet since independently changing from Softbank X01HT to an unbranded HTC Touch Pro 2 (i don't actually use internet on my phone anyway), but i'm pretty sure it will be no different than normal. i just popped in the sim, ran the softbank connection setup cab, and i have been able to send and receive MMS and SMS messages and phone calls no problem (well, setting up the Softbank MMS is a little intuitive).
it was a little tricky for me getting Japanese input/output to work, but i detailed my steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550605
there are a few other users in these forums somewhere in the same boat as us, and i think quite a few of them have gotten theirs working without much problem.
Thanks for all the great info!
@BeeGee_Tokyo: I am actually very aware of your website and the cool step-by-step guide it provides. Really understandable. Big *thumbs up* for taking your time to write it
@shunsai: Yupp, I also read your thread prior to posting. However, I got a little bit confused in the end since there was (at least for my n00bish self) no real conclusion how you can get everything regarding Japanese input to work properly. Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate the time and effort that went into it, but the results appear to be inconclusive. Especially since it ended in a hard reset, which afaik sets you back to your basic rom.
Ok, enough kissing up After doing a little bit of cross referencing between several threads and BeeGee_Tokyo's page I have a few questions left regarding the Japanese input. I hope I don't appear as kind of a thicko, but I'd like to know what I am getting myself into since this will be a first for me:
1. The .cab provided BeeGee_Tokyo's page for Japanese input seems to comprise Asukal's LetsJapanWM6 (not entirely sure about the name) and the Ooki Japanese Input. Is that correct? If not: Please correct me an I WILL edit this post.
2. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything in Shunsai's thread regarding the interaction between the Ooki Input and the TP2 apart from something along the line of "Good, but not as good as a new piece of software could be" (briefly summarized, not quoted!). Anybody have any experience in that department?
What I would like to end up with when all is said and done is the following (rearding Japanese input):
- Be able to read Japanese
- Hardware keyboard still works for English/Romanji with all keys intact (Text prediction and/or XT9 are optional)
- Software keyboards to input Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji (don't really need it often, so using the stylus to input Japanese would be fine).
So in the end it boils down to this: Is there anybody who has successfully achieved the above on a TP2 with the .cab provided by BeeGee_Tokyo, i.e. LetsJapan and Ooki Input?
Again, thanks for all your help!

you are complete correct. I mixed Asukal's LetsJapanWM6 with Ooki Japanese Input. I love Ooki's solution, because it forces me to write Katakana, Hiragana and Kanji with the correct strokes

At least I was successfull Otherwise I would not share my solution
And another guy here in Japan contacted me and together we setup his Xperia X1 with my cabs.
And I setup my IT guys TouchPro with my cabs as well, and his keyboard is working for English/Romanji.
AND!!! ALL CREDITS FOR MY CABS GO TO THE CRACKS HERE ON XDA-DEVELOPER!!! All I did was putting together the pieces to an solution.

you've inspired me to clean up my thread. it seems that a lot of people passing by that thread didn't understand that i was finally able to figure out how to 1) be able to read japanese 2) write japanese 3) use both software and hardware keyboard to input japanese and english.
the hard reset you're referring to was just how my intial experimenting ended. the part after that (the highlights) is the actual steps/solution. but thanks, i realize now how unclear that was! LOL
i'll fix it in that thread later [fixed], but to do what you want to do on your TP2 you should do the following:
1. install Asukal LetsJapan6 and restart
2. install Asukal's IME_31J_FULL, but do not restart
3. install Asukal's Enable_IME and restart
that simple. romaji, kana, kanji, kensaku, tegaki (the handwriting recognition inputs) will all work. XT9/Predictive will be broken. And you will need to switch between かな カナ or 英数 on the soft keyboard to get the hardware keyboard to type in the language you want.
Okay, I'm so thouroughly convinced that I ordered the Rhodium today (should arrive on Monday) and plundered brando for some nice accessories (should arrive at the end of next week).
@shunsai: Ahhh ok, now I know what you were getting at. Thanks for the update here and on your thread!
But I'll probably try out BeeGee_Tokyo's .cab first and if that doesn't quench my thirst for Japanese input I'll give Shunsai's solution a shot. Reason? Shunsai's solution is far more than I assume I'll need at the moment and involves more than executing a .cab. Still, love that you figured it out and went through all the trouble associated with it.
Thanks to BeeGee_Tokyo and Shunsai (in order of appearance ), the crackers who figured it out in the first place and the community in general for being nice to a n00b.
I'll report the results of my efforts and once successful will mark the thread as "Solved" for the further reference of future eager-but-unsure Rhodium Owners!
Reading Japanese only
Am I correct to say that if I only want to be able to read Japanese, I only need to install Asukal's LetsJapan6?
I would say so from what I have read so far.
Optionally can follow the instructions on http://www.ookii.org/software/japaneseinput/font.aspx .
Admittedly, I still have to test all of the stuff in this thread myself once I get my Rhodium, but so far, I would say yes.
