Is there any O2 (eng) rom can be used on Mda pro ? thanks

where i can get the rom?

O2 english ROM
Yes ofcourse there is O2 english ROM. U can get it from XDA ftp site.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site
and then click ftp://xda:[email protected]
go there and then open Map Uploads ----- then go to Universal File the last right side and then open ---- Shipped ROMs and there you wil see xda EXEC rom and download it : this is direct ite but sometimes it doesnot work:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROM/

Hi
Yes there is, I just did it and it works a treat! Its on the ftp site under shipped roms. Read the jasjar update guide elsewhere in this forum.
You'll need to install winrar in order to unpack the .exe from O2.
There are a few little oddities + if yr on t-mobile you wont want all the O2 junk. I'll post later what I did, I have stuff from O2, T-Mob and JasJar extended roms (but not much of each). An awful lot of sh1te comes with the device, and some simple messing is required to excise it.
I can tell you that in my experience:
- JasJar rom is slower than t-mobile (even before you install contents of ext rom.
- O2 Rom (with no extended rom) is quicker than MDA Pro rom
- O2 Rom + selection of cherrypicked cabs from mda/exec/jasjar runs better than t-mobile+tmobile ext rom.
Also, installing the XDA rom seems to fix the issue where the ruddy phone does not ring until 3rd ring when it is turned off. (I shall experiment with this more later) <--EDIT Nope, still does not ring until 3rd ruddy ring!
Anyway, i'll post a step-by-step, collating all the info from the helpfull chaps on here.
IMHO though, O2 run is currently the way to go.

And what about the German Hardware-Keyboard when I would install the English o2-Rom on my German MDA Pro? Would like to still have a German keyboard but an English OS. Like my Windows XP.

You schould read

to get a german Hardware-Keyboard on TM-MDAPRO (German).
The Software-Keyboard is branded into the english ROM
(JASRAR or XDA EXEC). You shoult install
http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/keyboard/default.asp
RESCO´s Keyboard/Pro to overlay it.
I´m using german`s MDAPRO with O2 XDA EXEC because
german MDAPRO crashes often.

[Solved] JJ keyboard from ita back to eng after upgrade

Hi to all!
I have a WWE Jasjar and i've been waiting for the italian rom for a long time.
Then imate released it and I upgraded my jasjar with new rom.
Everything is fine except for a thing: the keyboard!
I didn't consider that in Italy there's a different layout and probably the Italian Jasjar has a different keyboard.
I've obviously got the standard one, with english keyboard.
Is there a way to change the keyboard layout back to the original english one or the only solution is to get back to the WWE rom?
Thanks

Is the Ita Rom avialable by i-mate? Are You sure?

Absolutely yes! I have already installed it! You must be a registered user to download the rom.
And I have found a solution to my problem: now the keyboard work perfectly.
Everything's fine.

famusc do you live in Italy ??
i got big problems with this phone, especially because i can only make one call or more and it's need to turn off the radio and than back on to be able to make a new call.
Is this a behaviour that occurs to anybody ???
Ruppia

famusc: if you've solved this problem, perhaps you should change the title of the thread to show what you've achieved...
V

Yes I live in Italy.
I've never had any problem with my phone and especially with phone calls.
To change the keyboard layout:
Edit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\Qwerty and change the value to 10409 hex.
The keyboard will be remapped to the english one after reset.

Lits of ROMs ?

Hi fairly new here is there a list/table/Database of all ROMs available on tghis site other than the FTP directory, that also gives some info on what is in each , compatibility, comments form users ???
Seen a lot of Different lists in different places but trying to summurise them all as a newbi is almost imposible.
I bit the bullet and up graded my T-Mobile (german Keyboard) which had O2 OM 1.13.48 WWE Rad 1.04.02 Ext Rom 1.13.139 WWE in oit already when I bought it.
I used I-Mate Rom 1.30.68 Rad 1.09.00 Ext Rom 1.30.153 WWE
Which I managed to load with out to much problem Thanks to many helpfull post here. I did find out that I can not unlock the extended rom now, which if I had read a little bit more or better I would have noted as a known issue with this rom. It also was totaly unstable when I loaded SpB today plugin on top of Full RESCO suite that of course has its on Today Plug in. Once I removed the RESCO today Plugin (left all the other resco stuuf) it was fine.
How ever before I start loading all my other stuff to fine tune it.
I seek some advice. What is the Best ROM available at the moment? suitable for my unit. I dont care about Keyboard layout it was mapped correctly when I got it but when I did a fuul boot after a problem it reloaded the O2 sftware but the Germany key board was mapped for QWERTY. Now I am living with it. At some point I will learn how to remap it back to the QWERTZ.
Is the Developers Special ROM for me?
or one of the AUK3 or UNI_AKU3_2_WWE_IVAN_beta8
I have just read there is an Orange ROM with new Radio?
I would stay with what I have now but I do want to unlock the rom and I think that the rom I have installed has been surpassed by many newer ones.
HELP just a bit of advise Please?
Many Thanks

This rom is in russian, right?

Its russian so not really much use. We need one that says WWE (world wide english).

Not true. One can switch language from Russian to US english. Please share this rom. Thank you!

[someone please provide link]
ENJOY!!!

Thank you I will try this on my HTC S620

How did you get around the "invalid model ID"?
Did the trick with pof's SPL 1.11 work as suggested by johnnylavah?
Or did you just spend money to IMEI check?

It certailnly worked on my non-supercided HTC S620. If your device is HTC S620 regardles or the OS language it will likely accept update.no supercidding is required. DASH handsets would likely require CID unlocking for this upgrade to work.
1. run bootloader upgrade ( well, downgrade) first
2. run rom updater
This is "IU BUILD. TEST ONLY!" ROM.
Anyways...to get your English back after the ROM is upgraded:
Start --> Settings (Настройка) --> press 7 --> press5:
now, in the top most combo box (Кодировка) :
select UK or US English and press left soft button to confirm
in the next combo box select 3rd from the top entry: English Australia (Английский Австралия) and press left soft button to confirm
now, press left soft button 4 times to confrim that changes will become effective after soft reset.
At this stage you may power cycle you Excalibur
CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
Radio: 4.1.13.44_02.94.90
Model Name HTC-S620
P.S. You do not need to do anything about QWERTY keyboard layout. It's just plain standard QWERTY after the language settings are applied.
And just in case if you do not like default green colour of the home screen, there is one called WIndows Default available that looks a bit more attractive to me

So, just another beta ROM...
Nevertheless it's good to know that HTC is still working/testing WM6 for S620! Hope the final version will appear soon!

Dang - No go for my UK S620 either :-(

Is this an original HTC ROM without any branding?
Are there many differences to the T-Mobile WM6 (exept for the branding)?

Yes, original HTC, no extra branding. no extra bloatware. This ROM is very different to T-Mo DASH WM6 ROM. Much, much better this one. Great improvements accross the board.

Is it possible to go back to the WM5 ROM if the WM6 doesn't work out? If so how do you do that?

Upgraded fine S620 WM5 -> WM6
Hi all.
I have just upgraded from from WM5 on a CID unlocked S620 and all seems to be working fine.
Getting out of Russian is a little tricky, but following the steps in this thread worked fine.
TomTom works (as well as it ever has on WM5/6), UK Vodafone GPRS works, Hotmail and Exchange email working, Google Maps runs OK.
No obvious issues or bugs so far.
General performance seems to be comparable to the last WM5 ROM.
Cheers,
John

ahhh ! i tried it too - i have a htc s621 from rogers so i'm guessing it's because it's not CID unlocked? it says ERROR [294] Invalid Vender ID -any fix to this?

securegsm, can you help us out - the ones who are getting the error, my phone's app unlocked but it's locked to rogers. i tried 2 times but i keep getting the same error. how did you get around this? is your phone unlocked already or it's locked to some provider - if it is, how'd you get around the invalid id? i tried it - it didn't work for me

Need Help with ROM install its for CHINA (come quick) ......

My company got some phones to send to the people in China and I'm having some problems getting this Phone to install Windows Mobile 6 Chinese version. I was wonder if anyone could help me out. Here's where I'm at
Microsoft said the vendor HTC doesn't support it but this ROM should work.
Link To Rom:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions
(I'm using the one that says Chinese Version (CHT))
This is what they sent. Well I've tried using this ROM and I'm getting an 264 Error (I can't read the rest cause its in chinese but it seems from doing some research that it says it can't connect to the Device.) Even though i have it plug in with a USB cable and its at the tri-color screen and says USB.
The Tri-Color Screen Says
Herm200
IPL-1.00
Herm200
SPL-1.10
MS internal use only (side note these were donated from Microsoft)
I've done the HERM_Unlock_v2a and it said success also did the Radio part no problem there either but I still got the same 264 error.
This is for a very very good cause and if I could get some help I'd be really thankful.
Also a stick would be nice

I'm a Chinese user from Hong Kong and I'll try my best to help you out. Just curious, which part of China are you sending the Hermes devices to? Only Hong Kong people use Traditional Chinese, the rest of China use Simplified Chinese.
Are you flashing it with Windows XP or Windows Vista? Have you tried flashing from a microSD card? What are the devices branded as? HTC TyTN, Dopod 838pro, Softbank X01HT or something else? Did you flash HardSPL onto them before flashing the ROM you want?

They are going to the CDC in China. I flashed them with HardSPL and managed to get the ROM to load. Is there a keyboard I can load to them if they want to type in Simplified? Other then CE-Star of course. Looking for something free. Or do you have a ROM that has simplified on it? I contacted microsoft and they said they didn't have it which I found strange the ROM i linked from earlier is the only one they know about. 10 bucks says I wasn't talking to the right person that would know.
The guys down here in Atlanta said that most people and China can read Traditional just most can't type it. So if I can find a keyboard to load on all these phones we should be okay. Sorry its taking me so long to respond I've been loading phones for 2 or 3 days now
Oh and its Windows Mobile 6 and HTCs

In case you flashed CHT Rom, I suspect, simplified Chinese character set is not loaded at all. No matter what keyboard you use no way to show simplified characters, respectively the typing will be for traditional only.
There is a MS SIP for Chinese characters, but honestly I found it not that good as CE-Star. Dont have a link but believe you can find it on MS sites
There is another SIP named PlumSIP, which I use, but only the version for hardware keyboard. I found it very convenient. Search google and sure will find a link to dev page.
btw, I use english Rom with installed Chinese characters support - works very well for me - no probs with text, e-mails and surfing internet

If you can read chinese. go to this forum http://bbs.xbeta.cn there's a chinese rom for the hermes and has chinese read/write capability.

In this case, I suggest you go to the most popular PDA forum in the main land of China and the web site is bbs.pdafans.com. You can find all kinds of CHS roms for Hermes and most of them are very good.
I'm in China main land and I'm using Hermes as well, but I'm running WWE rom on my hermes as I prefer to official rom's I just replace the original file wince.nls with another one which Chinese is supported with and add Chinese fonts and tweak registry. As a result of all what I do, simply Chinese is supported very well in a WWE rom.
I'm hoping this helps.

Hi, can you go into a little more detail about which replacement wince.nls you use and the other mods you do to increase your CHinese support? I currently run a wwe ROM with chinese fonts and input added by cab files (CE-Star sucks but it's all there is and I have no idea why there is nothing better when the market for something as good as the vista Chinese IME would be HUGE)
thanks!

I'm a Traditional Chinese user so I can't help you with Simplified Chinese input right now.
I use WWE ROMs on my X01HT, replaced the wince.nls, installed "CHT_IME_QVGA_F.cab" ripped from a official ROM for Traditional Chinese input (Chu on/Changjie keyboard input, Handwriting recognition) and a 14MB Microsoft JhengHei Bold font. Now it is capable of writing Traditional Chinese and viewing both Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

Hey, I'm not sure if you have got this issue resolved. Here the following is what I usually do after a hard reset or flashing a new WWE ROM.
1. Replace with the original wince.nls file in \windows wiuth the one attached below. You can do this with resco file explorer or other app.
2.Copy the Chinese font file to \windows.
http://rapidshare.com/files/121391687/msyh.ttf
3.Implement a registry import for the fonts as attached file Reg Fonts.zip to get a good look.
4.Tweak the registry as following:
add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\FontLinkMethods=1(string)
Then Chinese performs perfect in a WWE ROM. And also you can choose Chinese PRC in Regional Setting page.

You should see the /windows folder with a file explorer, either the one in the ROM or the well known resco file explorer. But maybe you can not find the file wince.nls as it's hidden by default. You can unhidden all files with resco file explorer and then you can see it. Antually you don't need to see this file. Just put the wince.nls attached in /windows folder and press OK to replace the original file.
