Any help would be appreciated

I second this - we have one of the devices lying around at my workplace and like always the non English OS freaks me out (same goes for German even if I am from Germany). Is there any way to do change the OS to another English WM5 / WM6 ROM?

You can change the language I alsao have WS004SH
you will upgrade your rom by service menu hack ı explained it, By the way dont try to upgrade wizard wm6 that it will brick your device.. Anyway Alva if you want to upgrade your Rom. Enter the menu hack and find upgrade Rom selection you should find right image

Orange SPV M650 - Language problem - Help please!

My wife has just got an Orange SPV M650 and I need to change the language from French to English for her so she can use it properly (French is a problem and she thought she could change the language when she bought it). Is this possible? After a lengthy call to Orange France today, they tell me it should be possible but that I need to download the rom in English. But they couldn't tell me where to find the software to do this however...So far I have not had any luck. On other forums, it has been suggested that this just won't be possible.
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Thanks very much.

if you change the rom, you have plenty to choose from. what would you like? windows mobile 5 or 6? the official rom? or something "cooked" (which has more features)?
you are in the right place here. just search through the various threads about roms. be aware that some french spv m650 users had problems with gps once the upgraded to WM6. but there is a patch for that...

i've had that same problem before, i bought my spv m650 and thought it would be easy to change the language to english. i also tried to ask france telecom, but they're just a useless bunch of people. good thing i discovered this forum.
if you want, you can send me a private message and i could send the english roms that i used, and also the solution for the gps problem that one of the members in this forum made.

Hello,
I am using my bosses login as he has asked me to sort out his wife's phone for him.
Redski very very kindly sent me all the files that I would need to change the SPV M650 to English WM6 from the French (complete with the fixes for the gps).
Not owning a pda phone type thing myself this is all new territory for me. And a little scarey!!! If I turn the phone into a brick (do you like how I am learning the language?!)...well it doesn't bear thinking about as it's not my new toy.
Anyway, following the excellent instructions provided by redski I managed to use the uspl file to cid unlock the phone. I then tried to load the wm6 software redski sent me onto the phone. I keep getting an error message - the dos screen goes through the initializing stages and then the error message says can't find the file. So I thought I would look on this excellent website for more clues on wm6 software for this phone as I was loathe to keep bothering redski or anyone else for that matter.
But I have to admit defeat now and ask for more help please!
(I promise I have trawled through the threads looking for clues, even the excellent complete idiot's guide which is clear - it is the software to download I need guidance with).
I saw a download available on this site based on o2 german WM6. Is that the one to use? I think it was bepe's download??
I am using activesync correctly by the way and am only connecting as a guest just in case this makes a difference.
I am not stupid (honest!) just a little lost and confused so any help would be much appreciated from anyone who has the time to advise a newbie like me!!!
Thanks v much Emma

you can use any english ROM you like, i don't know why the one i sent didn't work, but have you tried looking through the threads that i sent you? you can also look through the WIKI page of artemis, and look for available english roms to download.
good luck!

Hi Redski
Just wanted to thank you again for your help. Just been able to download Meschle's new WM6 rom - all seems fine. Although I guess I may still need to download those gps fixes you sent me?
Thanks again!

How to upgrade a German T-Mobile MDA compact III to WM6?

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for someone who already managed to upgrade a german T-Mobile MDA compact III to WM6. Has anyone experiences with this? It's my business phone and I don't want to break it.
1. Is there any chance to reflash the old WM5 ROM if something goes wrong?
2. How can I save the old ROM!?
3. Do I need to setup any regional settings if I use the O2 ROM for example?
Thanks for all answers!

You shurely can use the O2 ROM. Regional settings? You can change the regional settings in the ROM, but you don´t neet to if you use the german version of the O2 ROM.
There is a way to make a backup of your curent ROM to a storagecard. Use the search..
You should make a backup of your pim (contacts, tasks, calendar etc.) with PPCPimBackup because you can restor them with thiis program, but not with SPB Backup..
Is your phone sim- or netlocked? Normally the german tmob devices are..

IMPORTANT: You can update - but before you flash your rom with any new os (like the O2) do the "uspl" (CID Unlock) first!
Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308242

I have updated mine. Everything works fine, but the menues are in English.
The phone must be CID unlocked then you can flash any ROM you like. You can also find a CAB for T9 input in German.
Ciao

Thanks a lot guys for all the information. I'll report later if it worked...

Success
Thanks for all your information!
Everything worked fine.
At first I tried to make an backup, but I was not really successful, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=312871&page=5
But it didn't matter because I found a german wm5 rom for t-mobile:
XDA-DEV FTP -> "Uploads/Upload/Official MDA Compact III ROM/MDA Compact III German.exe"
So here is a conclusion for all noobs, like me:
1. Run USPL, get it here and read all the stuff: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
2. Patch any ROM you like, for example one of those: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=362 or get one on the xda-dev ftp
I tried three or four of the ROMs from the forum, it was possible to flash them all, but I had to try it twice to "remove" the german O2 ROM (flash another ROM over the O2), but maybe I did something wrong in the first place.
What I would finally like is a T-Mobile branded german WM6 ROM. If anyone could give me some tipps where to start, I would appreciate it. I think it should be possible to extract the german O2 WM6 OS and somehow mix it with the T-Mobile stuff from the WM5 ROM. I know there is a lot information here on the forum, but any hint is nevertheless very appreciated

how to convert SPV m700 OS WM5 from Chinese to English

Hi All,
I've unlocked my SPV M700 Orange 2 days ago, so can use any sim. Now the unable to use GPS, so I went update the ROM. Big mistake is I've downloaded Chinese version. So how can out back to WM5 English version?
I will be appreciated if anyone can help!

Choose a ROM you want (why go back to WM5?):
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Upgrades
Make sure you flash it using SPL. Check www.trinityguides.info for step by step procedure(s).

I have no Idea, I thought going to the factory default, but if you have best advice I would take it. As my phone is booting with Chinese every bit of the screen. If WM6 would replaced I can't refused?
Cheers,
Fuadsaeed

There are many ROM's available but no such thing as the best. You will have to try to see which one is best for you. If you want a "save" start, choose bepe's ROM ...

language is hardcoded into the rom
a new rom a new language
that is if the new rom have a different
language then the last one
WWE == world wide english

Many Thanks T-Rob, my phone is back to HTC setting and GPS working fine too!
cheers to all!

Samsun i780 HA3 Phone ROM, anyone?

Hi folks,
I was wondering if anyone has the _phone.bin file containing the i780XKHA3 phone ROM for the Samsung i780.
I was just like reflashing it to the original shipped version, since I now have i780XIHA7 as the phone version and I have no idea if that is ok to have alongside my original XKHA3 PDA part.
Would be much appreciated!!
Thanks.

AFAIK, at the moment the only complte rom available on the net are the italian HA7 an the English HC4.
BTW the ha7 phone has saved from the trubles hundreds of users from england to singapore, so no I guess no problem in holland too.
At th moment Im using the HC4 phone with the HC1 (italian) PDA and all is smooth.

anywhere i can find the ha7 phone? haha or before you update your rom could u dump it so we can revert back once we make all the changes we all like to make?
