atom chinese rom to english
no news sorry.
It's simple
If you get the ROM, simply press the [Camera] hard buttong and use the stylus to push [Reset] at the same time. You will be entered a mode that allow you to flash your ROM, no matter what you previously had.
Momentai...
Thanks very much yhlee,
Your explanation was very clear.
I upgrade it and it is really more better.
Guys, I want to change from chinese to english but how or where the english rom to get? could someone get me please? thanks
Please share the O2 Atom Exec new Official & Original ENG ROM (not modified verson)
Still doesnt work
i am able to enter bootloader mode, but it still will not flash the rom. before i use the dsuu, the phone says connected, but after that it is not and needs to be connected to the pc and synced first. how did you guys get the rom to take?
im having the same problem like alc, how do you guys flashed your roms using the bootloader when camera+reset button? is it using sd or windows xp pc?

I've backup the BOOTLOADER + CE +Radio + Ext ROM to a file(use the command d2s adress1 adress2.........) and save it to PC already. (XDA II ) (for both Eng. XDA II and Trad. Chinese XDA II)
I've backup both version of Eng, and Trad. Chinese.
And then I copy the Eng backup combine rom to SD card and enter the bootloader mode in the Trad. Chinese XDA II, it work, it start to flash and completed.
I copy the Trad.Chinese backup combine rom to SD card and enter the bootloader mode in the Eng. XDA II , it work, it start to flash and completed.
It's several months ago, they works.
Yesterday, I try both the Eng/Trad. Chinese ROM on a arabic i-Mate XDA II, it fail at bootloader mode and stop at SD downloading, sections =3, not allow update, I just don't know why?
It's a matter of country ID or different between XDA II and i-Mate? What can I do to continue the flash?
With many thanks

you want the whole bootloader + OSimage + radio + ext. ROM in 51.5M or just Bootloader + OSimage in 3xM?
Do you have FTP uploader provide? I can upload it to you.
cheers mate u r a life saver... check your PM
How do you backup bootloader? can you post the exact command lines u used (i have the link on how to update the 3 roms but it doesnt mention bootloader)
Also since it looks like we never online at the same time can u upload the image to the forum so everybody can use it, i think it would be big help for all the people in my situation

hi FlashGordon,
can you please show us how can you backup the BOOTLOADER + CE +Radio + Ext ROM? Can yu do it in XDA 1? Thanks
@flashgordon: it seems that all 1.72.xxx versions out there do an update of the bootloader from 1.01/1.03 to 1.06. i tried this by updating my o2 xda2 1.66.231ger to a qtek 2020 1.72.01ger (eplus). there is no set of update files out so far, so a brave guy copied the rom-images of his brand new qtek 2020 to sd-card and spread it around in a german ppc forum. unfortunately i got rid of my old bootloader 1.01 and have now 1.06. from this moment on i get the same message you get when i try to update using a non-o2 update. a second bad effect is that downgrading to version before 1.66 do no longer work.
this is no solution but a little more background informations for you.
good luck
peter
cool
Like satrapo said earlier. I 2 need the rom you have. either on an sd card of to flash to an sd card as i have one. Please could you send it me. i have WsFTP, ICQ, messenger or SD card through the post. I would give you some money when is end it back of course etc.... plenty ways to recieve it.. let me know which is best
Matthew
I've study on how to post the file in these 2 days.
now
CE (Asia O2 Eng)
Not sections=3 is not allow to upgrade.
Even Sections=1, Sections=2 will not allow to upgrade
But................
You can use your own Backup ROM to crack the restriction.

You can get your device to function in English by flashing the ROM.
Roms can be downloaded from O2, T-Mobile, iMate or from this site if you want something more than just the standard stuff.
I can personnaly recommend my 1.72.903 (when I can upload it here) or my 1.72.902 rom.: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13301
To get in onto your device follow the instructions by dcs in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12101
You will need a minimal knowledge of german to find out the specifics of your device (the part where you need to run HimaUpgradeUt.exe), but a onlien translation tool should be more than enough to do the translation
ok! the more i read the direction....the more dumber i get...Just so cofuse and ...........god know!?? Thanz all for all the info.
Hey,
Newbie here. I own two smartflips bought from i-mate hq (Dubai). However, i'm now in Aus. WM6 looks nice and i must say, great work and appreciation for those who cook up these ROMs. However, i noticed that all these ROMs start off from either Cingular or QTEK or HTC. why leave i-mate ROMs behind guys? Anyways, before i try out any of these ROMs, i just don't want to end up killing my phone. I've searched high and low for i-mate stock ROMs (WM5). I saw one in a post but that was like WWE or something which i'm not sure what it means. I don't want to register on i-mate and do loads of form-filling and IMEI filling just to get some ROMs. Anyone have any idea of where i can acquire some 'stock' WM5 i-mate ROMs (not qtek or cingular or htc or wotever).
The other thing.. i haven't SuperCID-ed my smartflip. I tried to get to the bootloader (for no reason.. just experimenting) by pressing the keys n all but it doesn't show up. it goes to the i-mate screen.. then flashes an HTC logo and boots WM5. Once again my smartflip is Out-of-the box, hope that helps someone explaining the phenomena. i do have the i-mate CD that came with it. However didn't find and option to install Windows Mobile 5.0. I need a ROM to keep a backup in case i screw up. If anyone could help me obtain an i-mate WM5 ROM, it would be greatly appreciated.
Also, how would one find out the IPL and SPL of the smartflip? As i mentioned i wouldn't like to brick my phone. It is mentioned somewhere that the 3.06 or wotever IPL and SPL version are not capable of flashing through micro-sd card. Not sure but i think the 4.0 or wotever can flash through micro-sd card. Apart from the link(to files) posted in a thread, isn't there an 'official' way of getting to update the IPL and SPL?
Sorry for such a long post. One thing i must say, great work guys. I would like to suggest people to follow up on their threads. there was one 'bricked' post but the person said he found a solution but never posted what his solution was. It would be helpful if he could have posted the solution as it does help others. Apologies if i said anything wrong.
Thanks,
Dan.
You used to be able topick up Imate roms from ftp://ftp.clubimate.com
But they won't be nearly as good as the cooked Wm6 ones. Just follow the instruction and flash away.
(WWE means worldwide english)
Flash one of the cooked ones! I use Erofich's 6.1 and it's great.
WWE just means WorldWideEnglish as opposed to other languages.
Good luck
I have a SmartFlip upgraded with GnatGoSplat's WM6 ROM (Eurofich' WM6 is better but GPRS doesn't work): it works fast and without problems.

just install a Cumulative Fix after flashing and have a fun

Thank you all!
Hi,
Thank you all for your responses. i-mate roms at imate ftp site is confirmed. Thanks unwired. The thing is i take calculated risks and have most info before i do some thing. so if i end up somehow bricking my phone, i will know what to do before dad kills me . Now i just need to update the IPL/SPL and get into bootloader to see if it works. Then gonna flash with WM6 or WM6.1. I just needed a stock ROM to keep as backup because its mentioned somewhere that if your phone is bricked, u can try to flash it using micro-sd card flashing. but that only works with stock ROMs if WM6 flashing fails. Anyways, thanks once again. i will keep you guys updated on my progress.. Thanks!
Best Regards,
Dan.

Hi,
Sorry for multiple questions. I still haven't been able to get into the bootloader by pressing the voice notes and camera and power on key. I'm still not sure how it goes. Do you have to hold the keys, press the power button and let go immediately of all the three keys or do you have to hold the power button for long with holding the voice and camera keys? i need to check which version of the bootloader i have to make sure it supports flashing from micro-sd. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Dan.
EDIT: I was also looking for some way to backup software from my current WM5 ROM. There are some apps that come in-built which i like. But since i don't have the .cab(s) i was wondering if there would be a way to backup software and later on install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Out of a million tries, I only managed to get into the bootloader ONCE that way. Okay, I exaggerate, but I found it almost impossible to use RECORD, CAMERA, and POWER to get into bootloader. Instead, I've found with the phone OFF, press RECORD, CAMERA, and plug the USB connector into the PC while holding those buttons. It goes into Bootloader every single time that way.
You can back up the built-in apps, but it requires figuring out which files belong to which app, and also getting their registry entries. Then you can either manually copy all those files into the phone and manually import the registry entries, or make them into a cab file to automate it.
WOW.. thnx for that!
Yup! Worked like a charm! i have IPL/SPL 1.02 or wotever.. so i don't need to worry about micro-sd card flashing problems ( i hope i never need to use that in my life). So if it works this way.. i would recommend others who have bricked their phones and trying to flash it holding the record, and camera button while phone is off, plug it in the usb. As soon as i did that, Vista picked it up as a mobile device. the bootloader ( the screen sucks! what a dreadful combination of colors!) also shows a usb sign at the bottom. I hope this info helps those who bricked/killed their phone and were finding it hard to re-flash it. As it is mentioned in some thread... if wm6 flashing fails, u have to revert back to stock rom WM5 (cingular rom for cingular phone, i-mate rom for i-mate, etc) and then re-flash with WM6. I wonder if rom update utilities work when in bootloader connected to pc.
Once again, thanks for your reply GnatGoSplat. As for the apps, yea.. i know its bad. I did check over onto the i-mate site and found a file 'Arabic...' something. it didn't mention it as a rom so i'm hoping they are the software packages that come with the default middleast rom. You might have heard of 'Portableapps' on PCs. They are little beauties. Because the original windows and windows mobile are linked closely.. i might wonder if there could be a way to port those ( or even create your own) onto windows mobile. I know how to make portableapps so if you need any info, i think i could help unless someone knows better.
So where do i get the SDA_ApplicationUnlock file? Thanks.
Regards,
Dan.

Hi,
Thanks for the file Erofich. Unfortunately, I've just been caught up with studies and hence will not be able to work on modding my i-mate until i get some free time. however, i'm still going to try to work on an 'Ultimate WM6 for Startrek Guide'.
Its just that its better for end-users because some of the information is scattered around and 'some' of the instructions are a bit hard to follow (no offense to anyone). If anyone has any concerns or is against my actions, please let me know.

You can translate some menu (in the post of WM6 by Eurofich you find how) but not all of them.

Did you flash HardSPL?
For flashing another rom (English) you phone must be unlocked for flashing(HardSPL)
next step is downloading ROM you want, and flash it.
Go to bootloader (Power off device, press and hold "Camera" button, power on device) and try flash again. If it doesn't work, probably you usb cabel is brocken.
okayyy... i did it... huhuhuuuu... i am sooo happy...

Anyonecan help? I would really be thankfull. The phone only have 3 weeks and I cant get to use it.

did you have hardspl? was it security unlocked?
if yes to either then try flashing again, else flash an shipped carrier rom for your carrier.
