German Keyboard support for WM6? - HTC Excalibur

Hey guys, i am new here, just unlocked my german t-mo mda mail (=dash) and wanted to update it to wm6...just the thing is that i want to keep the german keyboard layout, is there a regedit that makes that possible? furthermore i wanna know whether it supports german as a menu language in general?
thanks for help !

Hi,
I have a german XDA Cosmo, unlocked and updated with WM6.
There's no german language, only US English.
But I wanna try to copy the language files from german HTC Vox to english XDA Cosmo, don't know if it will work ...
Newchurch

alright..mh, so do u think there might be a possibility to do it in this way? cause, i dun really think T-Mobile germany will release a german WM6 in nearer future...wont they..

Why you just don't wait a few weeks and get the unbranded European ROM for HTC S620 including German keyboard support and German user interface?

"a few weeks" is relative. Is the release date already scheduled?

HTC anounced something about May/June. But I don't know if they will do exactly what they have promised in their press anouncement...
I'll wait and see!

Will the unbranded Update work on a normal O2 Cosmo (mine is only application unlocked), though?
Thanxx, Mixx

Well thats what i mean, T-Mo suddenly released their WM6, so why shouldnt HTC surprise us as well? the t mobile wm6 is based on the original HTC one, so there has to be an existing HTC wm6 already...i guess it will be as well a surprise update since HTC barely gives any press announcements dont they - fact is: the htc wm6 engine is there - no we need to wait..question is..till when..?
@Mixx: as far as i know...there is no way around the CID unlock, that is only achieved through the complete unlock by imei-check...i did it already, its worth the 38 bucks, seriously..

if you have a excalibur unlocked (whether its a german dash or an american dash), the us t-mobile wm6 will work...

You don't need an unBRANDED, but an unLOCKED Excalibur.

Change ROM from Germany to English

Hi there,
I have a XDA trion from O2, it has Processos SC32442-400Mhz, ROM version 1.21.207.1, Windows 5.1.195. I bought it in Germany and it came with Germany language for everythink, so is there a chance that I can change completely the environment and softwares from Germany to English? It is very dificult to use in Germany, so can you help me?
Please reply to my email registered [email protected]
Thanks
Rotchester.

Firstly, it would have been better if you had put Trion or TyTN in the subject as well.
This has been already been covered. IIRC I believe if you search for TyTN and ROM you may find a dopod WWE one.

HTC S630 / Dopod C730 thread?

Hi everyone,
Am I missing something? Is there an HTC S630 / Dopod C730 thread somewhere in this forum? If so, could you point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
GP
I second that. we need HTC Cavalier forum on xda-developers.
does anyone know a uk supplier of the Cavalier?
I got my C730 (which I really like) from these guys http://portagadgets.com/uk/home.php
I thought they had it in the UK at brighton but they actually import it from Hong Kong, took 3 days.
But there is a problem. Their stock appear to all have a fault with the battery cover. See my blog here http://blog.timcarmichael.com/2007/06/30/dopod-c730-build-fault/
See what was in the box here http://blog.timcarmichael.com/2007/06/28/unboxing-my-dopod-c730/

Congratulations on your new C730. Its' trully great phone. Since your handset is HK import, you should be able to access the DOPOD ASIA website device support area.

As a UK T-Mobile customer, I will be trying this when an English version is released.
Does anyone know if the 1.17 Radio with this is identical to the 1.17 we already have?
I think in the past T-Mobile have included a couple of fixes in Radio ROMs upon release...
Looking forward to this - if it's poor I'll just go straight back to KDSKamal!

I would guess so - would think if T-Mobile went to the effort of making a new ROM for the MDA PRO they'd want to release it to all MDA PRO owners.
Don't have an idea as to what kind of time frame we're looking at though. Have ROMs in the past come out for T-MOIBLE.de before they come out in WWE? And if so was it days or weeks or longer before the english release?
I'm tempted to try it out just to see how it feels on the MDA even though it wouldn't make a lot of sense to me (who can barely count to ten in German!)
after I install this new ROM, do I need to install english input? because my keyboard layout is QWERTY not QWERTZ..
if yes, where can I get that english input?
thanks a million..

I do understand German, the problem for me is the keyboard input. I'm afraid if I press Y button on my keyboard, Z will show on the screen instead of Y.. and vice versa..
in case this problem appears, is there any way to fix this?
thanks again..

In that case, the problem could possibly be gotten around by selecting UK or US English in Start-Settings-System-Regional settings and restarting when it tells you, that should map the keys correctly I think
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\QUERTY
LAYOUT=x
Where x is a numeric value for a specific keyboard
So guys! how is this ROM compared to other custom made ROMs around?

Well, if it's anything like the last T-Mobile ROM (which I've reverted to from your WM5 ROM just for a little bit to try it out) it'll be a bit slower through the menus, will be as stable (and more stable than other cooked ROMs of the past) and will save you the effort of setting up your GPRS and MMS settings!!! (if you're on T-Mobile that is)
Camera app Version?
Could please somebody look which version the camera app on the new 3.3 is?
If its newer than 3.00 (Build22844), can somebody upload it here?

ROM is good
I have install the ROM and I have to say it is until now very fast and Stable ROM . I am returning actually from WM6 and I have to say this ROM compare to any WM6 much faster ( I have use all the WM6 available ROM's).
I am using it nowfor 24 hours and it has given no problems at all. amazingly I have after 24H still some 22mg RAM. Which means no memory leak what so ever

I have some bad news on that actually. I sent this message to T-Mobile support in the UK:
"Hello,
T-Mobile Germany, a few days ago released a new software download for the MDA PRO (AKU3.3). The current English T-Mobile ROM which I am using is extremely dated and I was wondering when an English release of this new download would be made availible on tm-phonedownloads.com?
Manythanks."
Unfortunately, this is the reply I received today:
"Good afternoon Mark.
Thank you for your email.
I am afraid that we will not be releasing another update for the MDA Pro. Generally speaking, we stop updating our phone software when it is discontinued. In this case, the MDA Pro is not part of our current lineup so another software update will not be offered.
Thank you for your time.
Kind regards.
PaulByrne
T-Mobile"
Now I wouldn't consider that a definate no, 'cos I think the MDA PRO is discontinued in Germany too and they've released the update there but who knows... It doesn't look too good though :-( Think the future of the HTC Universal lies in the hands of the Devs...

windows mobile 6.1 release..

Wasn't windows mobile 6.1 supposed to be released n mid february? its the end of the month n i haven't heard any word about it.. can some 1 please update me?
thanks in advance
sorry if the answer to this question has been posted already
I have not heard anything about the release yet...
some folks in the smartphone forum are cooking a version of 6.1 to work with a vox. not sure if anyone is working on a version for us but sounds like they're making progress over there anyway.
umm... is it even out yet though
Pre-release beta test versions for the Moto Q8 were leaked, and that's what people used to cook WM6.1 ROMs for various HTC smartphones.
I made one for StarTrek a couple days ago. Just like the WM6.1 Professional for touchscreen devices, it is not an official release.

The diference from new HTC ROM:
The WM 6.1 improvements - use google to read about it
Many many useful tools - its hell more easy to have almost everyting you need in ROM - cracked and working
The speed is good - I don't know is this faster then new HTC, but it's fast enough and definitely is not slower.
New super cool sliding theme with usefull staff.
And that is all I see for now.
The big fat minus is the fact this rom is for Chinese people. You have full translation for Windows, but some programs is on stable Chinese language - but you don't need to use everything. I speak about 2-3 tools. Everything else is in English.

Best norwegian 6.5 ROM

Hey, is there a norwegian 6.5/6.1 ROM, and which one do you prefere?
I've tried a few different 6.5 ROMs, but there allways seams to be something missing.
My requirements are that the hardware keyboard is working flawlessly, and preferably with norwegian T9 input.
Exchange sync is also a must have.

First: The Diamond doesn't have a hardware keyboard. So I don't think you have a Diamond?
Second: There is no norwegian WM6.5 available for the Diamond yet, 'cause no one has built the 6.5 ROM in norwegian. Yet.
