Vodafone v1210 (Asus Halley/Jupiter) - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Right I have a problem with trying to upgrade my v1210 United Kingdom version from wm5.0 to wm6, mainly I can't find any roms for my phone apart from a Vodafone New Zealand webside, although it's the same as an XDA graphite hardware wise, minus any cameras. Vodafone UK never released wm6 for the v1210. Anyway the New Zealand version won't work because the default language is different to my UK one, I have tried changing the default language with mobile registry editor, and in the defaultLCID it had the UK code of 2057 and in the systemLCID it had 1033 which is the USA code. New Zealand's code is 5129 so I changed it to them and it still didn't work. I looked at the rom in res hacker and it had 1033 codes mentioned in the string tables and that, so I changed both system and default to 1033 and still no luck! I have tried putting it on the SD card as an abi file and still nothing.
Anyone know how I can bypass the language checker when I try to flash the new zealand rom to my UK v1210? I just want wm6, and I want it now lol

Awww someone must know a way other than what I have tried, to bypass the language checker, is there more registry settings than just DefaultLCID and SystemLCID in the registry?

Hi!
Did you find a solution for your v1210? I think I have the same problem here. I'm still googleing - maybe I'll try to upgrade to wm6 with the O2 UK utility, althrough the v1210 has some hardware differences in comparason to )2 Graphit (no cameras & WiFi)

Vodafone V1640 UK - ROM Updates

Having already used the O2 XDA, O2 XDAII and the O2 XDAIIs I have been spoilt by O2's ROM updates via their own website.
The problem I have is that by changing to Vodafone I now have no facilities via the Vodafone website to do the same. How do you update your ROM if you have a Vodafone V1640?
Would appreciate your comments

If you love O2, you can flash the O2 ROM onto your Vodafone Device without problems.
Just use the search button on how this is done.
Thank you. I am a little concerned that the O2 ROM will erase my Vodafone settings as well as conflict with Vodafone protocols. I understand that the ROMs will have the same Microsoft Mobile 5 updates but also embedded are the phone company's unique settings and addional programs.
Do you know whether Vodafone issue ROM updates and if so how do you obtain them?
Thank you for your help and assistance
Why do you want to change the rom, (is there problems with the vodafone Rom) and what other programs are on the Vodafone Rom that you would loose.
As for settings you can enter all settings anyway into any rom as far as I know.
There is nothing wrong with the current ROM. I just want to stay up to date. New ROMs normally (and I say this tongue in cheek) have improved facilities.
The O2 site does not allow my V1640 (or in the O2 case XDA Exec) to be updated by their ROM as the IMEI does not tally up as being an O2 valid product.
I guess it's back to the drawing board for my quest.
just add the number 3 right before the .html and even if u dont have a correct imei, you can access the site of O2
Thank you. I will give that a try.
Will it erase all my Vodafone settings?
All Hard Resets / Full ROM Upgrades erase everything. I believe some roms have CAB files with operator settings. Download the Imate ROM, Install, then look for the VODAFONE .CAB file in the extended ROM, copy it to PC, then Upgrade to O2 ROM then run the CAB file that you copied to the PC

No auto config ?

Hi, great great developers, i sucessfully upgraded my brand new 838 pro to wm 6 , but i dont have auto config for operators in asia or any where, can some one pls pls , post a cab for asia or indian operators, i have already searched this site, i coundnt get info or files.
Thanks for reading

Try HTC's local site for your region.
the autoconfig actually resides in the ext. rom. see can you find a cab file named similar to "p_netwiz_2.05_dopodasia_wwe_rtm_20060703".
somehow something is still not right in this version (perhaps it's not designed to work in wm6). you'll still need to touch up on the mms wap/mmsc configuration manually.
Its here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._provider_cabs
tried it. Works for Starhub.

I have it! It's here - WM6 HTC ROM!

It is supposedly out, and in Russian, but with US/UK ENglish
This rom is in russian, right?

Not true. One can switch language from Russian to US english. Please share this rom. Thank you!
[someone please provide link]
ENJOY!!!

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

Great Job!!!
I am a HK user, and i have searched this great job for 6 months, but I still cannot find any posts except this post that teach traditional chinese's user to flash UC rom and make it to read and type traditional chinese.
Thank you very much, however, i will try this method for my KS20 after spocky12 release the new rom soon.
p.s. Thank you for spocky12
Great job bun_0806 !
I've updated first post of KisS20 thread to add a link here.
Thanks
I remember to have installed Ce-star after flashing spocky's rom. But after many bugs I simply removed Ce-star. Then I preferred installing a single font with respective registry modifications. By the way I'll try your method to see if it will give any different result. Thank you
Lemark
may you upload some detail for me?
i want to try your method

You can put your font in the windows directory of your phone and then modify the registry values. I have msyh.ttf (font name YaHei) for example, so I need to modify the registry values under
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
as
"YaHei"="\\Windows\\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma"
"Tahoma"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,Yahei"
"Courier New"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,YaHei"
"Arial"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,YaHei"
"Times New Roman"="\\Windows\\msyh.ttf,YaHei"
Main disadvantage of this method is that non-unicode Chinese characters become gibberish. Also China will still be unavailable in the regional settings.
Your method is superior to mine as it can truly enable Chinese support
The cab file in following link will install a font and modifies the respective registries. You can install it on top of Spocky's rom. It was made by someone named samau, so all credits should go to him.

support and display T.Chinese
hi all~
there is a useful site included how to make eng wm to support T.Chinese and change the interface to T.Chinese that i found.
http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=support
i tested on my ks20 with KisS20.4 Rom already.
it can be read and write/type chinese perfectly, write chinese meaning it support handwriting input But, the problem is cannot use PlumSIP6 after that. Can anyone solve it??
finally, i havn't test the chinese interface, if anyone interest, go try and report.
Here, I hope someone can develop a perfect T.chinese version rom for HK ppl, the original rom in HK was very very weak...
Thankyou!
**Remark** install Enable_No_Policy.cab first before you do anything is a must.

HAY GUY...the file i uploaded is the full version of MSJH.TTF
the file you find in KUMA is good but not function on kiss 20
because it will reload the wince back to your ppc
it will lead many many problems there
for example...you have to reset your ks20 successful more than 10 times
hi bun,
thanks a lots, your method can run chinese smoothly, but I get some problem when I use, detail as below:
after upgrade WM6.1 KisS20.4 Rom, this rom is fastest and stable one that I try in my KS20, after upgrade all sim card cannot work. I use this phone in Hong Kong and had tried 3 Hong Kong (3G), PCCW (3G), People and China mobile sim card also. All have same problem - cannot register the network.
I also copy the xml from HK10a rom of HK telecom provider in /windows/networkprofile, can select my telecom provider name but also the same.
After I flash back HK 10a.rom (http://rapidshare.com/files/12754205...2008_.rar.html), now the phone still the same cannot register any network, but can search its own network.
I use LGMDP_EURO to flash the rom in emergency mode with unbranded rom (since I heard all HK LG ks20 is unbranded) KisS20.4Rom
Now even I flash other rom still get the same problem.
please help, thanks

[Q] Adding italian language on AT&T Lumia 900?

Hi guys,
I have bought a Nokia Lumia 900 AT&T branded from USA and I have unlocked it for work with my carrier "Wind" here in Italy. I have a problem with the language settings. I have only english and spanish! No other language available! I have searched in this Forum a lot of threads about the issue and I have seen there some other people who like to add various languge pack on their Lumia but I must to have an high-level techonolgy capabilities to make this!
I have seen there is a lot of unlock level for sending language packs in cab format and I'm boring reading pages and pages without solving this problem.
This is the question: I like to know how to add italian language to my Lumia 900 and unlock Internet Thetering. I'm not interested to operating system development because I'm not a technology expert. I don't any ATF box I don't know if it exist here in Italy. My phone is original, just unlocked with a code provied from Ebay and the Operating System version is 7.10.8779.8 and the firmware is 2175.2301.8779.12223.
I don't have upgraded the OS because I prefer wait some info about the language update. I have only downloaded the Windows Phone 7 BackupV1.6 but it doesn't work (it's very boring!) because an error appear: the installed ZuneWMDU (4.8.2345.0) version doesn't match with the tool version (4.8.2134.0). I have Zune 4.8 the last version available from his website.
I think every guide provided from you can help all people who have bought a Lumia from AT&T (I think 80% of people registered in this forum).
Thanks to all who can help in advance.
Search forum about cabsender and use it to add more languages, italian language is 0410.

Hi, thank you for your reply. Are you sure this is the only simple precedure? And how do I do for unlock the internet thetering?
Edit: I have added the italian laguage .cab from the website in step by step from the first Operating System to my version. But nothing appear on the setting language section. I don't know if I must to reset the phone for working, I don't have maked any modify and the cabsender write the updates are sent to the phone! Any idea?
You must put all Italian language cabs to cabsender folder, all cabs 8779 and earlier. I added Russian and French language files with this method and all works fine.
Hi haikkk, thank you for your answer. I confirm you I have added all Italian .cabs up to 8779 to my phone but nothing is changed. There is not the italian language in the language settings! I don't understand if I must to reset the phone after updating for to see the new features!
I just tried and Italian language added in system local menu. I just copied this 6 files to cabsender folder, run "WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat" and press B.
(For my OS version i added 8858 cab too)

I confirm you I have sent the cabs in this order and the cabsender program confirm me all the updates are ok. But I don't understand why the Italian don't appear into setting under "display language". Where is my error?
Maybe you need to reset phone then try again? But first backup your data.
I don't any data in this phone and I have reset the phone but nothing changed. I think it's impossible to add language pack on all AT&T Lumia 900 devices!
Hi hace to format the phone but nothing change. There are only English and Spanish. I have tryed to resend the cabs to the phone but I confirm you they survive to format because the Cabsender give an error when I try. Any idea?
What error code you receive?
Hi, the error who appear into cab sender is 801800011 and the error who appear into the phone after updating is "Update unsuccesfull! Unfortunatly , we anren't unable to update your phone. Refer to Zune software..." etc.
