I have a new O2 German and I want to change the lenaguage to English.
Please, how to do this?
It is possible to load MDA English ROM to German XDA?
Try this:
Works only for upgrade from O2 (any version) to Dangaard (Qtek) 1.60
1. Download the Dangaard ROM image @ http://goztreh.free.fr/eng.exe
2. Extract this file with Winzip to a new folder
3. Extract the attached file to the same folder
4. Start the conversion and upgrade by double-clicking convert.bat
Grtz,
Jos
do not do the dangard one
do the dutch upgrade, is perfect, you will find it here on the web, its from t-mobile nl. and everything is in english. super super quality. I hear of problems with the dangard one. Second reason for doiing the duth/english one is its perfect for further upgrades, no country problems
forgot to tell you
I have an german mda, and did the english upgrade, went back to german, and back to english, no problemo
How to do this?
I made all you said and nothing happen in XDA
I had extracted 2 files to a new folder, execute convert, accept in the black screen, an one of the files in PC were deleted.
And I can detec any change in my XDA., How to know it?
And after, what I need to do to change the language?
Did you first download the English rom from the site mentioned?
If you download it, you get a file called eng.exe.
You have to extract this file with Winzip in a new folder (make sure you have Winzip installed, right-click on the file eng.zip and choose Winzip->Extract to folder...
This should give you 6 files.
Extract the file "Upgrade O2 to DANG16021.zip" to the same folder.
Go to this folder and doubleclick convert.bat.
You get some messages of the ROM being converted, and the upgrade process starts.
What you are doing is putting a new English ROM in the XDA.
The old one is overwritten and all data is lost. So make a copy of the My Documents folder of your XDA (a backup is useless, since you can't do a restore on the new version from an older one).
Grtz,
Jos
Problems upgrqading
Thanks to Jos for the detailed information.
I did all you say, execute CONVERT with the 6 files in the same directory, the box CHECKING THE INFORMATION IN YOUR POCKET PC.... starts, but after lon time I receive the message ERROR 101: CONNECTION ERROR.
The xda is connected and working the activeSync Without problems, but the software says is disconnected!
Make shure the XDA is connected directly to your PC. Don't use an USB hub.
Once you ran CONVERT, you don't need it anymore. Just run HimaUpgradeUt.exe directly.
GER to ITA
I have a new MDA2 German and I want to change the lenaguage to Italian.
Please, how to do this?
You need to get an Italian ROM, but I have no idea where to find it.
And please, just post to one discussion and not to three with the same question...
Connection settings
Ok, I have connected directley the USB port.
It is necessary to have ActiveSync installed? And running?
How to set the xda? Any special mode (bootloader, etc)?
I have active sync installed. Just insert the XDA, wait until the sync is finished and run HimaUpgradeUt.exe.
Thanks
Thanks JOS for posting,
I have the same problem.
I have Just received an O2 XDA from Germany in German Language...I'll do your suggestion...
My question is: wich differents between O2 XDAII Rom Version 4.20.1081 and the Dangaard (Qtek) 1.60 you suggest ?
Thanks in advance.
Francesco
and 2° question...
There will be problems or incompatibility installing Daangard Qteq 1.60 on The O2 XDAII with the future Downloads Xda II ROM upgrade
coming in early 2004.

Thank you.
Francesco
then you can just backup the rom you have before updating
and then change back to the back'd up rom before you update to the later rom
Great!!!
It worked fine...!!!
In 40 minutes I have got my new english rom image...
Thank you Jos.

Can anybody help a poor newbie MDA II user?
Hi everybody! I'm from Italy. Yesterday evening i finally received the MDA II from Germany. It has equipped with:
ROM VERSION: 1.60.00GER
RADIO VERSION: 1.06.01
EXTROM VERSION: 1.60.07
As i can't speak nor understand german language quite well, i started to improve my knowledge in how to change German to English idiom from several days. I downloaded from the forum the ROM version from NL (RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL) that should use the english language. :shock: By the way... an italian ROM version doesn't exist...? :shock: I don't want to do mistakes that could compromize the life of my MDA II, so please, please, please, give me a hand teaching me how to start the upgrading (i.e. before the upgrading, have i to put the MDA II on its cradle and connect to the PC, etc, etc...).
Forgive me, i'm quite less than a newbie :shock: but i learn quickly! :wink:
Many thanks to everybody who will help me... and to whole community of course: you are the best!

Can you confirm that the download RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe is safe to convert German version of ROM to English?
The download is at URL: http://shop.store.yahoo.com/cellpoint/tmobilemdaii.html
Any experience from those who tried that?
Thanks,
vnez
language is 100% controlled by the rom
so if you upgrade your device with a rom in a surden
language the device will be in the language of that rom

To be more exact: the rom is here @ http://xda-developers.com/incoming/rom160wwe/RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe
This ROM works without a problem on a German T-Mobile MDA II.
Don't know where you plan to buy it, but there are several German resellers who ship worldwide.
Take a look @ http://www.handit.de/index.php?fuseaction=shop&katid=64
You can mail them in English, but it can take some time before they reply.
Grtz,
Jos
Thank you very much.
I have already purchased the T-Mobile MDAII from Germany (Gigatech.de).
What I am not sure about is whether the change of ROM will cause erasing even MS Pocket PC programs (Excel, Word, ...) or whether they are part of the ROM and will be re-installed automatically.
Do you have this experience. I would really appreciate your reply.
Thanks and regs,
V. Nezval
Good price
You purchased that MDAII at a very good price.
I believe that these are at the rom, and therefore will change language (my experience),
but what is the real problem, if they erase they come back on the rom, if they don't erase they stay on the machine - win win situation

anything which is not put in ram by the user
(which is lost at rom upgrade)
is located in the rom
it's where everything is
that is everything apart from the radiostack
Hey guys,
I just got my XDA II and I would like to try the Orange m1000 rom.
Is there anybody that does have an UK version of the Orange m1000 rom?
Thanks
Panja
The ROM i refer to in my previous post on the Danish Orange ROM is entirely in English - except for a GPRS default setting pointing to a Danish gateway. You can easily change that.
It can be downloaded freely from Orange in Denmark.

Alas NOPE!
It can't ('out of the box/from the download') be used to update an O2 XDA2 though, because it fails the country check instantly.
As I just tried exactly these things when you posted earlier this morning mate (UK time).
I tried to run the M1000 Denmark (english language) ROM update, on my UK O2 XDA2 today.
It fails straightaway - "Invalid Country".
Not sure if you can hack it or something to allow this, but it's certainly not something I would know how to do, or feel confident trying.
have you tried chancing your country in the local settings before the upgrade ?
you could always change it back
Thanks for the replies guys!!
So what do I need to do to upgrade to the m1000 rom?
Cheers
Panja
if you can get around the country thing then you need
a cradle and the upgrade exe file
Rudegar,
No mate - the country code issue has nothing to do with user set values/user defined regional settings.
It is something hardcoded into the device ROM to identify its country.
It can't be user changed.
It is a hardware check made when starting a ROM Upgrade.
Pity though.
what if you change the exe file to zip and take out the nbf file ?
and install it bootloaderwise ?
would it not work then ?
Er, run that by me in Swahili, as English just lost me...
Nah, seriously mate, I have a basic idea of what that means, but can you be more gentle with me and give me more details?
well if the exe file is an install file
then it's really a selfunpacking zip file
and if you change it from
WHATEVERNAME.exe to WHATEVERNAME.zip
you can unzip the nbf file from inside the zip
and you can use the xdatools to flash the nbf file to a sd card
and upgrade your device from the bootloader
at least thats how you do it on the xda1
Dear TyTN/Hermes owners :lol:
I've just uploaded the PTG (Portuguese) ROM that came with my device.
The instructions I followed can be found in the Wiki: How to dump ROM.
Check the Wiki page for available Dumped ROM's and more information about the ROM.
You can, in alternative, download it here.
Cheers
Help?!

Re: Help?!
It is NOT POSSIBLE to flash or replace the ROM on your device with a dumped rom. At the moment there is no portuguese ROM available.
Portuguese Rom needed

Same thing here, I have a htc tytn with the portuguese rom (bought to TMN)! And I have some problems in my wireless connection when I connect to a wireless network that requires a certificate! ...... without the portuguese rom we are stuck.. because If anything goes wrong in the upgrade process we don't have any manner to downgrade to the original rom.. and by the way we loose the guarantee..
Hi Guys,
i've been searching reeeaaally hard but couldnt find any clue if someone cooked a german ROM based on Win Mobile 6.1..
I'd appreciate it very much if someone did or tells me where to get as my brother doesnt speak english and desperately needs improvement on his QTEK 8500 (especially more storage space)
Thanx in advance..
Basti
You are right, there is no 6.1 rom in german. I looked for it too, but nothing...
I'm also interested in a german 6.1 rom for the Strtrk.
Probably we have to wait until the first wm6.1 smartphones with german rom hit the market.
infact you don't have to. There is some sort of SDK provided by MS where you simply can take the language files from. An easier option might be to take all files from that ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383587 and subsequently replace the English files in our PRO ROM with the GERMAN ones.
In any case its a bit work to get to know how to dump a ROM etc. But if you really need a German ROM i guess you have create one by your own since the majority of Germans around using English versions.
regards.

These files are not working with Windows Mobile 6.1 Smartphone Edition. The Screenshots showing Windows Mobile 6.1 PocketPC Edition. You could use them only if you have Erofich's Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro ROM. But as i use Windows Mobile Pro on my StrTrk and i am looking for german languages too, i will try it.
And do not flash this ROM on your StrTrk because this is a ROM for HTC Wizard. You must open it with htcRE and extract the *.0407.mui files, copy it to you phone and sets some registry keys to enable it. Or you have to rename the files to *.0409.mui and copy it to your phone.
But, i can't guarantee if this works...
