[HELP] Change Language - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I bought a HTC Desire from Taiwan(China) and would like to change the OS to Swedish (Nordic).
I have tried Morelocale2 but it doesnt work, I figure there is no SWEDISH-ROM or settings for it inside the current STOCK-ROM.
Anyone have the ROM with Swedish?
Or anyone know any other ways to get my phone blonde and blue eyed(Swedish)?
Thanks All ! I do appreciate it!

Root it, install a custom rom and morelocale will work

which custom ROM do I need ?

Anyone will do. On the Stickies (dev section) you will find the desire index. There is the list with all the custom roms. Since you are a beginner , I would recommend leedroid no-a2sd (froyo version is more stable than gingerbread).
In the stickies you will also find a noob proof video tutorial with instructions

which one should I do first, Root or Custom-ROM ?

Root. You have to root to install a custom rom.

Do step 2, 3, read 6 and do 7.

I did or I tried, on step 3 the revoked program tells me connection interrupted. What to do? My hboot version is 0.93. 0001 does that make a difference?

Make sure you have the hboot drivers installed, the usb is properly connected and retry

Yes, root first.
And, you can only mod CID inside you phone. It can change language.

You should try GB with Insertcoin 1.0.1 experience, it's like you have a new phone
For that you must s-off your phone.

Thank you all ! It worked out fine, and thanks from my sister too since it's her phone !

make sure you backup your phone after you root it
that way you can go back if your new rom stops working or hangs

Yes that is the right guide to do a perm Root. Also what rom version is the Desire Z on? If it's on the 1.72 or 1.82 you will have to downgrade to 1.34 before you can root.
ROOT USING THIS GUIDE
If your on 1.72 or 1.82 DOWNGRADE USING THIS GUIDE.This downgrade will work for the 1.82 version, even though its for the 1.72
thank you guys for all your help I did it
Now the only thing is to choose very stable and working rom ?
Could you recommend any?
Thank you

For me stability is important, so is minimizing the number of times I have to wipe my device. So I avoid pre-release ROMs including RC's so I'm running the stock rooted ROM right now but anticipate moving to CM7 as soon as it's released and verified as stable.

WELL, FIRSTLY...i´m not fully understand but i believe that you want its
1-root your device? you said in the same phrase " i´m currently unrooted" and then you said "i have root"
2- you are using I THINK RCmix..but you said "rmcmix".(how can be possible that you have an unrooted custom rom?)
3-in adition you named the thread "clokwork"...has you got the recovery? yes? no?
4-are you sure that you want a WEE OFFICIAL 2.3X BUILD? or you want a gingerbread custom rom? like rcmix....
Conclusion: it would be good and in addition necessarily that you were clarifying your question thank you

Well if they say, you can't then you probably can't this time. Also in other threads were updates - people are working on it. It will be on the forums, when root is available.
thanks alot
You have to wait either for HTC to release their boot unlocker or someone else who manage to root it. It's a race. Wonder who will faster.

aren't there rooted stock GB roms in development section? maybe you should ask developers how did they do it?
Here's an idea, search before making a new thread. Its right there in the rules of these fora. There are multiple threads about this subject already. If you can type then you can read, right?

You do read that its not about rooting an ordenary gingerbread device, right?
After HTC released the official upgrade to 2.3.3 alot of eager smartphone users have left their cooked 2.3.x rooted devices stranded on the upgraded 2.3.3.
As did I. Now I am too looking for a solution to get back to the much better 2.3.x rooted version gingerbread that I had before.
I understand threadstarters frustration. Maybe so should you instead of flaming?
Have a nice day...
EDIT: just found the other thread about downgrading to bootloader 0.93. But still think a decent reply to a kind would be nice, eventhough there are other threads about same topic.
Yes and as we all said there are already multiple threads about this exact subject. I understand that the thread starter is frustrated but there are others with the same problem already. Thats why you're meant to search before posting new threads, because there are already threads covering this topic.

This can be done.
I s-off and rooted my desire running official gingerbread today.
You need this tool from revolutionary.io (sorry I cant post links yet)
It was quite easy (after finding a guide on google).
I needed to root so I could updated the radio and have 2 way call recording, it's working perfectly. Well happy

How to Flash Custom ROM?

Hi,
Does anybody know any easy to follow guides or steps to installing custom roms on the Galaxy W. I have upgraded from an Xperia X8 and it seems more complex than that.
Any assistance is appreciated

Please read the threads in development section.
Hi,
Yeah i did check that forum but i couldnt realy find anything which is relatively easy enough to follow in order to install CWM.
I havent as yet rooted the device or done anything else. However it is running the latest Samsung firmware and isnt carrier locked.
Arco68 has posted a cwm recovery in the galaxy w hacking and development section. You can use Odin (simple way) or adb (complex way) to flash cwm. Then once this is done you can go into recovery. You will notice many things are different to standard recovery. Go into install rom rom sdcard (hint that you need a rom on ur SD) and it will flash the rom you choose. Simplez. PS. If your gonna choose a rom I'd recommend cyanogenmod (currently in alpha but not many bugs and still good)
