HTC GALAXY language change (may work for other machines) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Device info:
GALAXY (PDA with GPS, no phone)
a.k.a. Dopod P100 and QTEK G100, 128MB flash size
This device is CID locked, but Wizard tools (incl. lokiwiz) I tried were unsuccessful. True, this is not a Wizard, but there are surely no Galaxy tools! (and since few people have bought this, there's no need)
DIDN'T WORK...
One week of trying to use different RUU's and using a backed-up ROM from a good fellow here. Since I don't have access to a 256MB SD card, and my 1Gig card didn't seem to work with NTRW [write], even though I tried to paste the working backup ROM over top of my backup, it was rejected.
THIS WORKED 100% for ME...
I successfully changed the default language from Traditional Chinese to English by doing this...
The "J Cat Switch" method:
EXPERIMENTAL - FOR REFERENCE ONLY...
DO NOT TRY THE FOLLOWING OR YOU MAY END UP WITH A CUTE
DISFUNCTIONAL PAPERWEIGHT WITHOUT A WARRANTY!
1.Unzip a folder of the latest NATIVE language flash (in my case: TCHinese), making sure it INCLUDES a bootloader (in my case: CEBL.nbf).
2.Unzip a folder of the flash that you WANT (in my case: WWEnglish)
and it doesn't matter whether or not the bootloader is included.
3. Be sure the CEOS.nbf (the biggest) files in each folder are EXACTLY the same size.
4. Sync with Activesync. Start the Native RomUpdateUtility. Hit NEXT, NEXT, (etc.) to get the machine flashing. Keep your eye on the machine and notice WHEN THE BARS START MOVING, FLASHING THE BOOTLOADER. Remember the last button you clicked before this happened. LET THE FULL FLASH COMPLETE. This was practice for you to SEE WHEN the bars start moving and say ("copying bootloader"). set up the screen and get the machine into Activesync again.
6. CRUCIAL STEP: With folders side-by-side, repeat STEP 4. This time, when you FIRST see the bars moving (copying bootloader), IMMEDIATELY DRAG and DROP the CEOS THAT YOU WANT into your folder with the native Language CEOS and hit "Y" to Replace the file... I believe you have about TWO SECONDS OR LESS!!! I don't know what happens if you are too late!!!
7. Let it complete.
8. Enjoy!
----------
Another alternative would maybe be to quickly DELETE the original CEOS and then the drag - drop (switch).
This doesn't require you to hit "Y" to Replace.

I need your help
I belive you can save me.
I have dopod P100 and trying to change WM5 Korean.
Could you let me know how I can unzip a folder of the latest NATIVE language flash. I don't understand this.
Please let me know tools you used for this and explain in detail if possible.
Thank you very much.

native means the original language (and region) of the device.
I am not sure which languages are available for qtek g100 or dopod p100... most likely german,
english, and both chinese languages.
mine, bought in taiwan was traditional chinese
english (meant for europe) would not allow flashing until I forced it.
I'm not aware that a korean rom is available for the GALAXY. can you use an english rom?
also, be careful because some experience is necessary before trying this!
-j cat

Thank you for posting reply
Thank you very much for your reply.
G300 is another name of Galaxy and its OS is Korean version(WM5).
I bought Dopod P100 in TianJin(China)
I think I have Korean Rom, but not Chinese ROM of Dopod P100.
It has following files in RUU_v1.0_G300_KOR(Rar zipped excutable file).
CEBL.nbf
CEOS.nbf
EnterBootLoader
readme
ROMUpdateUtility
RUUClientDriver.dll
RUUGetInfo
RUUResource.dll
I attached Korean ROM, if possible, could you verify if files are correct?
I think I can change language through what you did. If I am able to do it, I think I can help many korean Galaxy user who wants to change language from Korean to English.
Could you please let me know where you get the following?
1. Chinese language flash.
2. English language flash(If I fail to install Korean version, I'll installl English WM5)
3. Native RomUpdateUtility
Please let me know what do I need to do? What kind of experience do I need?
Thank you very much and help me please....

French Hermes WM6 ROM!!!

Hello!
I am working to cook a french WM6 ROM, it is going on the good way and I thought that some people could be interested in this (as I know that french members of this forum are asking and waiting for it since a long time!). I still have a lot to do, but if you are interested in my ROM I could release it in the following days.
This ROM uses the same base as the lastest LVSW 3.30.0.8 ROM, the french MUI is from an official WM6 image (provided with WM6 SDK).
Here are some features of my ROM:
OS 5.2.1413 (build 17741.0.2.1)
French user interface (OS & OEM apps), french hardware & software keyboard
HSDPA enabled
Voice call enabled
VOIP enabled
Windows Live
Live Search
Transcriber
Smart Dialing
Adobe Adobe Reader LE
Tao Java Midlet Manager 11.1.7.1034
Comm Manager 1.3.7.0 (10 buttons)
SIM Manager 6.10
SAP Settings 1.45
Bluetooth FTP
HTC Task Manager, Zip, Gif Animation, Streaming Player, TrayIcon_MannerMode
Here are few screenshots:

Bravo!

J'ai hate ^^
You are doing a Great work.
I am portuguese and I am also interested in replace the english MUI files by the portuguese. I have extracted the SDK image I have the dump directory with the relevant files. My problem now is to know exactly which files must be replaced and How. If you can give a little help it woud be great.
Thanks and continue with your good work.
superb idea !
wish you success
Th
VivaErBetis and i are in the same way trying to put SDK images to WM6 spanish operative ROM.
Do you post here the exactly files you are replaced from base ROM with those from emulator image ROM?
Thanks in advance and congratulations for great work

As per as my post here, I also want to transform a WM6 ROM in a portuguese rom with the sdk image. Please clarify a doubbt I have: which tool you use to open the wm6 file rom (nbh) to be able to replace the needed files? how do you do that?

Hi dcoelho.
You can extract the NBH content with koch soft from dutty.
With this you get the NB files you can extract manage with same tool, or you can use tadzio tools to get BigStorage version.
Advice: If you origin ROM is done by tadzio tool, don't use koch to edit (you can extract the content of NBH anyway)
The link for dutty koch is http://www.thegamebooks.com/pocket-...c-the-(hermes)-rom-koch-v099661-f30-t584.html
I think we all who like not WEE versions can put all our effor together in one way to get multiple language WM6 ROMs.
Great !
some suggestions :
- a recent built of HTC streaming player
- a nice 3G icon + a nice pinpad
Very Very Interesting !!!
Thanks in advance for your hard work, can't wait to test it
Hello,
Does the others ROM (non french I mean) requires hard modifications to understand AZERTY hard keyboard and display an AZERTY soft keyboard or it is only something we can parameter in the device?
I would like to update to Black 3 but this issue scare me...
Thanks
I'm really interested (i'm currently using the original LVSW 05/05/07 full big storage), and i will appreciated if you could explain how to do it.
Super génial ! Et si en plus, il y a Office (Word, Excel, etc.) ce serait génial !
Si tu as besoin d'aide pour les traductions, n'hésite pas !
Try to translate :
Very good ! And with Office, it was very nice !
If you want help to translate, french people can help you !

Simple - just try to load the ROM into The Koch. If that works, you can use it. If the Koch crashes, you can't.

I have HTC Streaming Player version 2.10h, could you tell if there is a newer version? If yes, where could I find it?
I would rather not to change 3G icon to keep an original ROM.

It is not possible to easily change the software keypad, but there is no problem for the hardware keyboard, if you want I can give you a cab install I made to change the keyboard layout to french.

How to build your own wm6 language OS from M$ SDK

Ok.. I hope this could be a HOW-TO-DO-IT thread and that people will post some useful info how to build your own language from the M$ SDK wm6
This thread will be updated when there is new info. (but we all need to help!)
First we need the wm6 files of your language
-
How to dump the wm6 files
1- Dowload the images that you want here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...26f-a913-4f370a65a582&DisplayLang=en#filelist
Available languages are:
0404 CHT Chinese Traditional
0804 CHS Chinese Simplified
0405 CSY Czech
0406 DAN Danish
0413 NLD Dutch
0409 USA English
0407 GER German
0408 ELL Greek
040b FIN Finnish
040c FRA French
040e HUN Hungarian
0410 ITA Italian
0411 JPN Japanese
0412 KOR Korean
0414 NOR Norwegian
0415 PLK Polish
0416 PTB Portuguese Brazil
0816 PTG Portuguese Portugal
0418 ROM Romanian
0419 RUS Russian
041b SKY Slovak
0c0a ESN Spanish
041d SVE Swedish
041f TRK Turkish
2- Install them in your computer.
3- Take the image that you want from the installation folder.
For example, if you have downloaded the images for NLD language look in the folder "C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\PocketPC\Deviceemulation\0413":
The image for Hermes is: PPC_NLD_GSM_VR.BIN (I'm not 100% sure)
- Download Tadzio's imgfs excelent tools in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298327
- Unzip the tools along with the image in any folder.
- Rename the image to A.BIN (to make the next commands easier to type).
- Open a D.O.S. command window and perform these commands:
> NBSPLIT -emu A.BIN
(it generates two files: A.BIN.EXTRA and A.BIN.PAYLOAD)
> IMGFSFROMNB A.BIN.PAYLOAD IMGFS.BIN
(it generates the file IMGFS.BIN)
> IMGFSTODUMP IMGFS.BIN
And that's all. Files are dumped in /Dump directory
-
What we need! (and how do we get it?!)
So all we got right now are the wm6 files, we dont have any hardware drivers and OEM apps specific to the hermes.
We need;
"XIP"
"the kernel'
&
"module addresses in the ROM"
Hope this will work out, its in best interests for all of us!
@ mods - can we make this sticky? Thq you
Thx to VivaErBetis
You dont need to make a complete rom.
Use an exsisting rom with all drivers and etc.
You will need to replace the mui files from the emulator image..
You will also need to edit the .rgu files.
And you will need to edit the intiflash.dat file.
There MUST be a empty line at the end of the .rgu files and iniflashfiles also.
Im not sure if you need more..
My freeze at the windows logo screen when i have flashed the phone and boot it up.
Well since this is intended to be a learning thread, I have a question. Upon dumping the files, lets say one wants to delete PowerPoint;
I know the executable, and the lnk file are in the windows directory. Now once one removes these two files, are their any other files in other locations that need to be deleted? Also, what about the registry entries? Do those get deleted as well? I would think you would if you wanted to keep the reg clean, and compact. But I could be wrong, and that is why I pose the question.
I am sure I am not the only one curious about this, but I am sure that because of all the flaming around here, that alot of folks don't dare, tread in these types of waters.
Translate..
Sorry for my poor english
I'm trying to translate in Italian language...
I've used this method:
1) I've extracted the Emu Ita Rom;
2) I've extracted a WWE Rom (LVSW_RUU_Hermes_WWE_3.30.2.1);
3) I've changed all the names of *0410.mui (Italian) in *0409.mui and overwritten the LVSW original files;
4) I've rebuild the LVSW Rom and I've uploaded to my hermes.
So, now i can see the 3 boot images, then only the up bar with "start" and the clock...
If I call the PPC I can see "Incoming Voice Call" with the text in Italian, then the image still on the screen and I can't do anything...
I think I'm not so far from the traduction.. I need only know if I've to change other..
Gigabyte i300
I have just updated my Gigabyte i300 with the WM6 Rom provided by Gigabyte. Too bad Dutch language is not included in the Rom. Is there a way I can add Dutch language?
hey, this is quite an interesting thread. i'm still quite new to the hermes, and still playing it safe (haven't done any flashing yet... only reading and waiting). i have the X01ht with it's original ROM (and currently unlockable radio BL). i lurk these forums frequently, and still have a hard time figuring out what requires unlocking and what doesn't.
anyway, relating to the content of this thread, i'm looking to get an english mui installed on my japanese OS. the only other options seem to be 1) Asukal's MUI (which at this point seems like the best solution... i'm just still not completely sure) or 2) installing a new ROM altogether. i don't quite want to switch to an english OS, because i like the japanese/kanji predictive input. also still a bit worried about warranty voiding by flashing a different ROM file. only thing i want more englishized than it already is are the menus. the keyboards are fine.
anyone else looking a similar english solution to a japanese OS? hmmm... am i correct in assuming that too would require ROM flashing? i think i would risk an english softbank ROM...
Are the tools or the commands for extracting / dumping and so on always device specific or are there any general tools that have to be updated to work with certain ROMs?
When you use Bepe's packaging tool on the files you'll get them sorted into packages, specifically all language specific files of a package will be in a seperate folder.
Is it possible to easily repackage those or does one how to copy the files from that folder to the new ROM manually?
Maybe it's a feature for the next Rom kitchen...
downgrade from wm6 to wm5
Hi Guys,
could anyone help me on how to downgrade my Jasjam from WM6 to WM5?
Thanks in Advance!
Bram87,
Did you made a dutch custom ROM yourself? Otherwise could you make one based on the 20070519_LVSW_RUU_Hermes_WWE_3.30.2.1?
New Project!
Schap has started a project to make a rom for all the localized languages!
We can ask him if can make a cooperative work.. much brains= less time!

Unable to re-create the emulator rom, any suggestion

3) imgfstodump imgfs.bin

any reply is welcome.

If you don't wish to flash then Asukal's mui is indeed your best option. if you want to flash then you will have to recover the softbank AP info
Asukal Mui is easy to install and doesn't mess with your rom .. don't like it ? .. a hard reset will restore your default
A very cool solution .. i have asked him -very nicely if he would be a Eng MUI for my Sharp EM One

hello bunny007,
Sorry to ask a silly question.
Could you mind to give me more detail about the how to "use" the mui files from emulator image? For example, HOW-TO edit the .rgu and initflash.dat files.
Many thanks.
i managed to translate all the .mui in italian using xn resource editor and succesfully boot in full my device, all was working without problem but when the system start up the languages was in english and not translated. i think there is something to do with the files like S000, S0001 but if i replace this file the os doesn't boot, the only way seems to translate the original english file with an hex editor but imho too much time is necessary to do this and when we finish the translated version from microsoft should be already out. nobody know a fast way ?

I do the same and give me this error
ImgfsToNb 2.0 RC 2
No IMGFS partition found in partition table in A.bin.payload. Exiting.
My (no so bad) experience
I've tried to make the Italian Rom (but failed)
This is my procedure:
1)Decompress the ITA emu rom and a WWE Rom (like Faria rom)
2)Copied all ITA *0410.mui files, renamed in *0409.mui and replaced the original in the WWE rom
3)Edited the initflashes.dat WWE file, replacing all the links
4)rebuild the new ITA Rom.
When I've mounted on my hermes, I can see the boot is ok. But he won't to start the startup wizard (display calibration etc..) and I can see only the top and bottom bars; the center seem to be stuck but the telephone work (if I press the green key) and it's in ITA!
So.. what other I've to change?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english

I also am getting the error:

I wish to take an existing cooked rom (LSVW), add my own stuff, take stuff out, then repackage to add to my hermes. To be honest, I don't even know where to begin. I have an NBH file, I've used dutty's tool to get a "windows.nb" and I've also tried the emu images. So far I've seen no step by step guide so I've tried to piece it together from the forums. How do these other guys do it?
knives79 is the same error/problem i have, as i said before if you overwrite the original S000 S001 etc file with the one in italian the sistem doesn't boot and stuck and checking with mtty have a lot of bad block on nand even if tadzio's tools say it's ok to flash but if you take only the file that end .mui (file, not folder) the system start up, i have the calibration screen in italian but nothing more, the rest is all in english

- VisualGPSce
- Oxios Hibernate 1.4 (Free RAM)

Download Links:
Outdate and deleted
New flash tools. Passwd is 'p526club'.
Instructions:
1. Backup your data. Copy the xml network configuration file in \Windows to your PC. (File name look likes install.xxxxx.xml)
2. Flash HK ROM version 6.1.6 HK by using the official tools, download from Asus Official site or
here. This for making your boot loader to be 6.1.6 HK version. (It's the important step, unless you'll brick the device).
3. Flash my new WM6.1 Rom using the new tools. Double click the flashrom.bat and follow the instructions.
4. Wait until 100% completed and your device will reboot to new OS.
5. Copy the network configuration files back to \Windows and you can setup your GPRS, MMS configuration.
Recommended: You should not restore PIM from WM6.0 backup file. This will bring your device to unstable state.

Czech : velice dobrý, funguje na 100%. Zadny problém.

Here you go, check the countries.

By the way, the genius that is Somphon_r has now done another 4-5 versions since this one, I am currently using Version P526_WM61_26_Clean, and radio ROM P526_Radio_445 with out any issues. Waiting for a mirror to dl wm61_27_clean as well. ( From the Thai sites)
Obviously, I may have been lucky, but Somphon, has been more than helpful, for all kind of issues. Good friend to have on your side. But you still have to flash at your own risk.

hi, thanks for your reply.
I have the official rom, but everytime i tried to flash, always give a wrong ext error.
Used to be able to fix this by editing .ini files, but its somehow not working now.
btw, also tried to remove thai initial from startup, before, threaded sms stopped working. Its working fine after i put back thai initial into startup. Something to do with font service ?
update....
feel bored at office, then tried to download official firmware again, this time it works! (only need to edit .ini to ZHH)
plenty strange but not complaining
btw, looks like the mighty somphon released yet another update !

i cant download the rom, pls provide another link or mirror.thx

you can try d/l-ing the newer rom version (2.81) from the link i posted few days ago (pdamobiz). There are few mirrors for this version. Rapidshare for sure is working.
currently using this version, so far so good.
Unfortunately I can't get this one to work for me, every time I try to update, it errors with 'FUU has stopped working' and thats that. I might try again at the weekend.
Keep up the fantastic work Somphon_r!
I am not sure if it is Vista thing or a mistake that I am making, but all the others worked OK.
I have just had a quick look and the .ini has .wwe and THA, is that where I am going wrong. Change the THA to ZHH?

What i did last time is: I flashed HK ROM version 6.1.6 HK, and then replaced the file in the extracted HK ROM folder with one from somphon, and then flash for second time.
Since I already edited the .ini file when flashing with HK rom, the second time did not complain anything.
Thats it. hope it works for you !

Hello boys,
First, sorry, my english is very poor.
I'm an chinese student. I buyed a Vodafone HTC Diamond (I changed the rom to RUU_Diamond_HTC_SPA_1.37.412.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.26a.25.09_1.00.25.03_Ship because vodafone's rom is horrible!!!) but I am looking for any rom or program with japanese and chinese input (and korean if it is possible) running in Diamond.
Can someone help me?
When I have my HTC P3300 I was using CE-Star, but I listened that in Diamond do not run correctly.
Thanks a lot!

there is a ce-star version for diamond. since you need chinese input, i presume you understand chinese. so, it would be best if you check out those chinese pda forums. they should have the input which u required.

The ROM includes Japanese keyboard although it is the same as WM5 or before.
Is it possible to have a kind of cab file to enable Japanese/chinese input and display ?
I would like to keep my actual ROM instead of flashing another one since I'm learning japanese for few months but I'm not able to use a full Japanese rom yet.
Well I'm aware about "LetsJapan" cab files made by Asukal to enable Japanese display but i can't find an input solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Until now, I tried with Hongkong english rom with ce-star (I buyed), and is ok to read and write jp and ch, but when instal korean input like diopen, cjk or other, can read and input korean but some characters from chinese change to square. But if just install the korean font, can't read it (just can read in word but I looking for to explorer or opera).
With this japanese rom that you say can read korean? and have jap/ch input?
Well, thanks to all people that help me!
????!
i too would like to have addon for jap/chinese traditional...
even thou chinese isnt my primary language i'm trying to pick it up therefore would be good to see the names of my mp3s
For japanese support, I started a thread here
Hello, nice to see that I'm not the only one having problems with Asian fonts in Diamond.
Strangely enough, I don't have any issue to display Asian characters, no matter I use CE Star or other fonts pack.
My problem is actually quite wierd: whenever I install Asian fonts support, my four hardware buttons (home, back, call out, end call) and the directional pad stop working...
The other buttons and the touch screen are still OK though...
Anyone has came across similiar issues and/or found a solution to this?

Thanks for the Chinese support cabs, but it did not work for me.
The good thing is it doesn't affect my hard buttons anymore, and the kuma input part works OK.
But I still cannot view websites in Chinese. I don't even have the choice in Internet Explorer supported languages.
Besides, many characters are not recognized in e-mails and it only shows a blank square.
This is maybe because I installed the support for Japanese too, as I need both languages.
Another possibility is that the cab only cover traditional chinese and not simplified chinese...
All the other cabs I tried for Chinese support works well, but they do affect my hard buttons.
Just to give the feedback about how I solved my problem to whom might be interested:
1) Since all 'good' Asian Fonts package was putting a mess in my hardware button mapping, I was finally forced to switch to a WWE ROM, preferably one with Asian affinity.
2)
From that point, CE Star and other started to be compatible again, which made me understand what the problem was:
having to deal with different Asian codes plus French (the language of the ROM) plus English (the language of the keyboards Asian Languages' IME are running).
Now everything works just fine, so far so good.
