Can I get a Taiwanese Dopod c720w working in English? - HTC Excalibur

Hi there,
I am about to pick up a Dopod c720w for 2500 RMB here in China, it's a Taiwanese version with no English.
My question is -- is there some kind of ROM I could install that would give me dual English/Chinese support? Or some other method? I don't want to buy the unit if it's going to be forever stuck in Chinese...
Thanks!
Matt.
*Edit* - Also, I just received a T-Mobile MDA Mail which was a mistake, because it doesn't support WiFi.... the vendor switched me away from the c720w because it didn't have English (and he wasn't even aware that the MDA Mail doesn't have Wifi). So, he'll switch me back to the c720w, but only if it is possible for me to get it running in English (with Chinese support, preferably, so that I can easily view / have friends here type stuff in).

The Dopods in Singapore are Eng+Chinese (config either or)
maybe u can try the ROMs from DopodAsia

I have a Taiwanese one I bought in Taipei. It has both languages installed.

When you CID unlock the phone you can install the rom you want.

mine are hongkong version and support both english and chinesse
try to go to setting press 7 (more) and then 5 (regional setting)
the first row is regional setting and i think it' changeable

those with english + chinese, is it a CHT rom or WWE rom?

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.

ROMs & languages

Hello,
I'm about to buy in Israel the HTC diamond, which will be up for sale probably in august. Since they (HTC in Israel) will probably make their own ROM - Hebrew language edition of ME, with hebrew characters, and text which is right-to-left.
Will I be able to install the normal ME version, or even the WWE? (I know it means the interface will be in english)?
Will I be able to see Hebrew characters even though my ROM will be WWE/ME?
Thanks!
I guess that would depend on the regional settings in WinCE, but you'll have to test that.
hey - i from israel to. i buy the diamond
the WWe.
and upgrade alot of rom .
everything work fine
with "pdac" hebrew

Changing Language (norwegian)

Hi! Yesterday i bought my first HTC Touch Diamond P3700. I have never used any HTC cell phone. My problem. I live in Norway and this phone is in norwegian, but i want it to change to english. If I checked the ROM update, then it gives me only norwegian version. I'm thankful then somebody help me a little.
Thank You
You have to update the rom to a WWE (world wide english) ROM. But you can change the language of the Manilla.

Thank you for answering. Can You tell me little more about it, what can i use or add any useful links. Because if i add my serial number to htc.com support, it gives me automatically norwegian version.
Thank You
I read some threads, and the latest WEE official version was corrupt or somthing.
There are some Official Roms you can flash, though, i dont know if they are fast or not. I'm a Raphael user (Touch Pro). but read in the Diamond Rom development for good rooms.
Official WEE europa : here
If your are willing to "brake the warrenty" you could allways flash a coustom rom. And flash back to a origianal rom if you are sending it to service for a hw problem.
Read this thread for coustom rom.

RRU Russian Rom is there

Hello, Very quick I bought a TP2 here in Ukraine. I did order one in English in other words a Euro model. I did get a Euro model but with the Russian. How is it possible to change this unit back to its original RRU. I really do not understand how someone managed to flash this test rom to the device. On start up there is a notice NOT FOR RESALE TEST ONLY. Will I have to wait for HSPL. This is a Euro TP2 for sure and on the box there is a EAN code and the manuel and keyboard are English. Comments are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
same q
i bring it from Moscow to Lebanon .
i thought that it was english
i have the same question
send me a PM I may be able to help
Hey guys!
I have the same problem. I wanted a device in english. But I wanted to have that damned thing so much that I couldn't wait and bought a TP2 for myself
My russian is not that good, so I am not enjoying that device so far. Do you think it is possible to install an english rom to these devices?
P.S. When the device restarts, I have the same thing appearing on my screen. (Test only, do not sale!) Keyboard has the russian letters and the device is in russian.
ROM Version:
R 3.44.25.27
G 61.25t.25.19U
D 1.19.51489
What do you think? Is this a device which is installed by a test rom?
