Just flash O2 XDA neo from German to English.Here is the procedure:
1. Backup your data in your xda. ( including your sms and contact).
2. download the romupdateutility.exe file (by Machinagod).
3. extract the RUU_Prophet_2090724_20907106_020720_QtekWWE_Ship.exe to a filefolder. ( use winrar or winzip not double click .exe file or it will run immediately)
4. copy the romupdateutility.exe just downloaded and copy it into the folder ,then overlay the original file.
5. connect the xda to the PC:
6. then run the .exe file.
7. Ok, just It start now , wait about 10 minutes until it finish.
Thanks decmac and others (sorry cant remember the name) and all the xda-developers.
one problem is that after that, it will lost the homezone icon in O2. so you have to look for the software and setup it. just find one HZ_V0530_Magician_AKU2.6.CAB ,but didnt work well on wm5. So if someone can deal with it, please post it.

Is it need to be unlock CID first? Or we can flash it with this step without any processes before?
If if have to do something before, please, post it to me, I am very new for flashing ROM and I also bought Neo fro German, too.
So please post the process previuos flashing for me.
Thanks in advance
ans also thanks machinagod for help everything
Hello, thanks for this. I presumed it worked fine for you?
I was wondering, is there some way to flashing it back to original? I mean, if i want to flash back to the o2 rom? Is that possible, and if so, how? I have not seen the o2 rom anywhere yet??
Can you tell me what you found to be the biggest difference in the new rom? Is there momre included software?
need not to unlock cid first, it can overwrite the original german rom.
FOR can
not get the german rom. therefore, cant write back to german rom.

Hi.
I tried this procedure on my Norwegian Qtek S200 with ExtROM 2.10.7.108. It all went fine until the phone started flashing. At 1% I got an error message on PC, which I don't remember, I clicked Exit and the update program stopped and nothing more happened on the phone. I restarted the phone and now the display only shows a red/green/blue screen and absolutely nothing happens. Phone won't start anymore.
Anyone who can help me out? Is there any way to flash the ROM from from SD-card? Help...! ;-\
Thanks, OrvarK

If you are still having the problem please take out the battery and wait ca. 3-5 secs and reinstall it back again. After doing this you can power up your device once more. And it should fine.

If you flash an OS only ROM, and us soft/jump SPL, it'll always be recoverable.
where i can find the romupdateutility.exe?
i already download the version in english, but when it's going to start the process appears the legend "ID ERROR", what can i do??
You'll need to use Hard/Soft SPL.

??????? what is that??
and how i use it?
hi,
New to the "ROM update" world, i've succeded in installing the French Rom V1.25.406.1.fr on my HTC Cruise (Polaris).
My "problem" was this red and very ugly "SFR / vodafone" splash screen. Then, i searched on the forum to find a way to change this screen and found this thread :
"How to kill vodafone startup" : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368421&highlight=sfr , redirecting to a ...Trinity thread.
I arrived to the WIKI page dedicated to this : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_SplashScreen and followed instructions using "mtty" :
USB> task 32
USB> lnb finalsplash.nb 500e0000
USB> task 8
USB> task 32
USB> lnb finalsplash.nb 50140000
USB> task 8
The device restarted twice (after each "task 8" command), and now offers a white startup screen, but keeps on loading WM6 FR correctly. So there has been a problem while updating the screen but did not cause a dramatic failure.
I then restarted the device in booloader mode and found that the description in the red section had been sort of corrupted.
It now displays :
::::::::::: MFG
SPL-2.20.01inex
CPLD-2
As it looks strange to me, and as i can't find a way to have a proper splashscreen i decided to reinstall the ROM package. But when starting to install i now get this message "ERROR [244] : INVALID MODEL ID". On this error screen is also diplayed a kind of serial number on the right bottom, and it looks "corrupted" as far as i remembe i saw such number ant it was normal during my first installation. It now displays : "N-&ààaâäae-S-PPND./01*"
After this quick recap, i would be very please to find help for any tech guy (or not) who could find a way to get install a proper ROM on my device that will be updatable again.
hope i'm clear (i understand this can be a little messy ..), and i really hope someone will help me get rid of this.
thanks guys.

well congratulations for managing to find the place it stores the Model ID, hard luck for managing to wipe it.
what I'll do is rbmc my device and dump off my nand so you can write back a valid ModelID... but in the worst case scenario I can just bung you a patched SPL to ignore the model ID.
I think I'll post the correct addresses on the wiki... also, rather than committing suicide like that, in future, build an NBH properly and the device takes care of the addresses for you.
oh, one other thing, could you please check and see if your WLAN is dead or not.
Thx for your time dude. i feel so stupid ...

I've just checked my WLAN. it could correctly open a WPA TKIP session on my router and browse mobile.htc.com with Internet Explorer.
That must mean it's alive and working i think.
yeah... unicode string at 0x50104000
I think we can probably recover you if we make a 0x100 byte file with the appropriate data and lnb it to that address
OK, I've reconstructed you a ModelID to flash using lnb...
command is
lnb 50104000 thefile.nb
(where thefile.nb is the filename of the NB in the zip... please remember to extract it)
That's really great news. I'm crossing fingers. thx.
Guess what ?
The bootloader now dipslays "POLA100". Big thank Olipro !
I'm on my way to have a ROM UPDATE in order to know if i can give you the title of fu*** genious of the day or not
PS : correct command is "lnb thefile.nb 50104000"
ROM update successful, title confirmed !
Cheers Olipro
yes, my mistake, it's file then addr.
incidentally, the correct address to lnb the splash screen to is 0x50140000 and 0x501A0000 respectively.

Hi all.
I have 3 semi-brick iPaq device (612c, 614 and 912c). After do a ROM updrage from a bad miniSD card, these device onli show me HP logo when turn on. I'v search too many time and find a way to bring them back. @XDA-dev, I've saw someone have brick iPaq like me.
You need:
DNW (Include Driver file) http://www.mediafire.com/?zmnmzmwnjtk
Your device's Flash.DIO file. How to make a Flash.dio I'll post later. But you can found .DIO file via searching the web.
How to:
- Open DNW.exe, [Configuration] => [Option], change [Download Address] from 0xc000000 to 0x3000000
- Rename FLASH.DIO to FLASH.nb0
- Bring your Device too download mode: RECORD + OK + POWER or RECORD + OK + Reset to enter Download mode. Note: It's not Quanlcomm download.
- Plug your device to PC, and manually select driver to install (files are in SEC folder)
- Back to DNW.exe and [USB Port] => [UBOOT] => [UBOOT] and select Flash.nb0 just renamed and waitting for programed
I've done with these ipaq last week and return them to my customers. These Combine-key to enter download-mode can be wrong with 9xx device. I'll find another device to test later
This solution can change language of your device to language of .DIO file
How to make a .DIO file:
- You can download ROM update of your device from HP official web site.
- After download, extract (don't run) file to a folder by winrar, 7z or another archive manager. You'll see file named FLASH.NBF
- Open FLASH.NBF with a hex-editor like XVI32, and cut off first 3432 bytes. Then save file as FLASH.DIO.
- Now you can do a flash with this .DIO file and a micro-SD card, or with DNW tool at first post.
Great, thanks Paloma!!!
ipaq 614c resurrected with this great util.
Thank you.
P.D. Hp repair cost me 246 euro replacing all mainboard
Paloma, i have the same problem, but with a ipaq 6915. It is always into initial screen with blue screen and HP logo and in the botton right corner saying "No GSM" and ROM version. I would like test this solution, but when i run UBOOT the program always say, "Can´t open USB Device". I have installed the driver and it still saying the same.
Other cuestion. When you say "Download Mode" it is the same than "Bootloader Mode"?. Thanks
hi Carlengue.
This solution isn't apply to HP 6xxx.
I've got some ideal to help you, but now I ca'n 'cause I'm not at home, without my PC/laptop. I'll PM you later, ok?
i can't find the proper key combination. I've ipaq 914c
@ Carlengue:
Follow this link: www.mediafire.com/paloma and goto folder PPC tool. Download Uni_exitbootloader and run it with your phone plugged and active-sync disabled. Then you can try with one of two ROM I've uploaded (I don't know wich device you have, G3 or G4)
@ Ericco: I'm verry sorry, I'm in traveling and cannot find a HP-9xx now to test combine key for you. Can you try with VOLUME(up or down) + Record (or Camera) and Power (or Reset).
I'm sorry again about this incompatible.
Still can't find the proper combination.
Ok. I found it
Volume UP + OK (on side) + Reset
Rom on my 914c changed from NDL to ENG yeah
Hello Paloma,
Thanks very much for this info.
I have not used it yet but I can appreciate the knowledge since I had a bricked 612c previously and had to wait for 2 weeks for it to be fixed, I tried various software at the time but couldn't get to work.
I would like to kindly ask if you could please explain to us how we could modify a flash.dio or build a custom one. I want to know how I can modify Windows Startup files and decide on what software I want to have installed by default, etc... (that would be greatly appreciated).
Thanks heaps

Yes you can back to orginal ROM. Or you can download official WWE-ROM for 914 from HP support site and follow post #2 to get .DIO file

I'm very sorry, I'm on TET (Lunar-new-year) holiday now. I'll back to work after few days. Can you wait?
While, could you try to remove battery for a long time and insert back. Or try to enter boot-loader.
Camera's flash always lihgt => I think it's premotion of hardware failure.

which I downloaded from htcpedia under ROM for HD
I did a bit more reading about my problem & It was ERROR 244, meaning Incompatible ROM. I tried to flash a different ROM & it worked fine.
Could someone please explain why I can not use Duttys_Leo_Sense_2.5_5.2.21901.5.0.92_2.10_Radio_2.08.50.08.2_HG_V2_EN for my HD?

This message is now updated with a 100% working, and quick way of changing your language for the X2 device. I have now tested with 4 different languages (fi, en, se and de), and all worked. I also updated the cabs to report to the Update Software that the phone has an old versison. Now it does not compalin that the latest version is installed!
I have tested with these languages: GENERIC_FI, GENERIC_SE, GENERIC_UK and GENERIC_DE. The rest of the cabs are created with the same rules, so they should work to (if not, then please post here which cab does not work).
Before you upgrade, please write down the following info and fill it into the form on the download-page!! I really want this info.
I would like to know which all versions are out there, and how they are connected to the different ID:s and versions!
Code:
Software ID:
Software Version:
Customization ID:
Customization version:
Language Region:
Content version Software language:
In what country the phone is bought:
Otherwise i have to put a special form that requires everyone to fill in this info before you can proceed to download..
Just follow these steps
Get one of these cabs, and save it on yout SD-card (not phone, becaue you will erase the memory during this procedure!):
x2_generic_be.cab
x2_generic_cn.cab
x2_generic_cz.cab
x2_generic_de.cab
x2_generic_dk.cab
x2_generic_en.cab
x2_generic_es.cab
x2_generic_fi.cab
x2_generic_fr.cab
x2_generic_gr.cab
x2_generic_in.cab
x2_generic_it.cab
x2_generic_mea.cab
x2_generic_nl.cab
x2_generic_no.cab
x2_generic_pl.cab
x2_generic_pt.cab
x2_generic_ru.cab
x2_generic_se.cab
x2_generic_sg.cab
x2_generic_tw.cab
x2_generic_uk.cab
x2_sony_us.cab
x2_vodafone_es.cab
x2_polkomtel_pl.cab
Save the cab on your SD-card
Reset the memory of your phone (settings->Clear phone)
After the reboot, you have to align the screen. When finished, the phone starts to install cabs. NOW remove the battery (or press the reset-button on the back of the phone) so that the custom cabs wont get installed
Start the phone again. Now when you get a screen that asks you if you want to continut the installation process, click NO. The phone boots up to default windows mobile with no SE panels etc.
Now install the custom language-cab you downloaded to your SD-card earlier
Turn off the phone
Start the phone and keep the vol-down + power button down till you come tho the white SE screen.
Start the SE Update Software, pick your X2 and click next. Connect the phone to the USB-cable when the software asks you to do so.
After a while, the update-software informs that there is a new software-update available. Just hit next/continue and confirm that the phone's data will be erased.
There is NO need to remove any files on windows, The update software starts to automatically fetch the ROM that matches the installed custom-CAB
Now you notice that the update-software starts to download the new ROM (over 125Mb). If for some reason the upgrade does not start to install (eg. one case was with a demo X2 phone), then just let the phone complete the custom cab-installation It does a factory-reset before it resumes the install)
Below are the different language-versions available. I have not yet had time to create cabs for other languages, but if you need a specific language, then post to this thread a request so that i can create a custom cab for that language.
It would be nice if you would report to this thread if you succeed or not with this upgrade!
So, here is a list of available regions that i simply picked up from listigs of ROM:s To get the MR2-release, it has to have been released by SE...
Code:
Belgium - GENERIC_BE
Czech - GENERIC_CZ
Danish - GENERIC_DK
Dutch - GENERIC_NL
English (Generic) - GENERIC_EN
English (UK) - GENERIC_UK
Finnish - GENERIC_FI
French - GENERIC_FR
German - GENERIC_DE
Greek - GENERIC_GR
Indian - GENERIC_IN
Middle East - GENERIC_MEA
Polish - GENERIC_PL
Portuguese - GENERIC_PT
Russian - GENERIC_RU
Singapore - GENERIC_SG
Spanish - GENERIC_ES
Swedish - GENERIC_SE
Taiwan - GENERIC_TW
etc...
Needless to say that you do these tweaks on your own risk
There are two other files that go along with this, and i can confirm that it did not work for me.
ill see if i can get the other file names. but i belive there may be another thread floatinga round that has suggested this as well.
Do you mean this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6522684&postcount=56
The second file contained a readme
12:00 pm 02/26/2010

I guess you are trying to install the russian version, right?
What you showed on the above screencapture is an Uk-version of the X2.
To figure out more precisely what went wrong, you need to confirm to me that you followed all steps i have explained in the first post of this thread.
i gave my phone back to the seller because it was prototype version of the x2

I think that the hardware is the same, but with an old software.
Did you
Reset the phone
Cancel the installation of the cabs after aligning the screen?
Install the generic_ru cab?
I did this, and i had an russian x2 with the latest R3A software...
So my opinion is that you gave back a great phone!
.
yes i did like you but still was the same.
now i'm going to buy SE X10

I had a couple of times that the update did not work on the first time. What i did was that i rebooted the phone, and when it asked if i want to continue the cancelled update-process i answer yes. Now the phone asks you to accept a reset. After accepting, the phone reboots, and you are at stage one again when the phone asks you to align the screen. Again when finished, cancel the update-process by removing the battery.
Now install your generic_XX cab (download a fresh copy of it!).
Now reboot your phone at least one time. What you could do is paste the content of the following files (you can get to them via ActiveSync):
\windows\swVersionCust.txt
\windows\swvercust.txt
\windows\swVersionProduct.txt

Thank you for your solution, i think soft-reset after installing cab is mandatory.
All work as you describe, I've just flashed my X2 from English to Russian.

Great to hear that this worked I have now for fun installed 5 different languages
Spanish Cab
Thank you for the amazing work.
Is posible get the spanish cab for the procedure ??
Regards,
Eric
thanks hertell
since we don't have SPL yet, I suggest this thread being stickyed
Some suggestions:
1.- a spanish CAB ??
2.- many users vahe tryed and tryed everything before with no success, which means their PC SEUS SOFTWARE IS ALREADY MARKED with their current I-wanna-get-rid-of language. this prevents the installation of a new language...
May I suggest you to include anohter step into your guide:
UNINSTALL SEUS FROM THE PC and reinstall it after the lang CAB has been installed
OR
delete folder C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db

Regarding the re-installation of SEUS, or deleting the files, i say that that's pointless. I have not done that, and i can install any of my tested languages directly without having to every time download them... SEUS can even resume nicely uncomplete downloads!
I think that the Spanish language has not yet been released, but as soon that will be released, then i'll create a new cab for with spanish language.
There is one thing that puzzles me, and I would like to know a bit more about what they mean (This is an example from the GENERIC_UK rom):
Software Id: 1230-2799
Customization Id: 1231-4909
Customization Version: R22A
What do these values mean? I would apreciate if someone could explain me more in detail, and if someone could point me to a complete, then that would be even better!
If this is some kind of flavour of each specific language, then it's not a big deal for me to create a custom cab for each of these flavours.
I just added two Spanish cabs: Standard + Vodafone. With this you can change your language to Spanish. Currently there is no spanish MR2 release, but you should get the spanish previous version installed.

Man I just want to tell you that you have done an amazing job.
Thanks!!
Thank you!!
My phone is currently in Europe as i did not want to risk "bricking" it myself: better to blame someone else if it happens But you have some pretty clear instructions so if I were to do it myself, I dont think that I would have a problem.
I sent this as a link for a more experienced tech to follow and make the change from Czech to English.
Unfortunately I do not know the the answers to the questions that you recently posted on your first post in this thread but as soon as i get it back I can try to find out what I can: albeit it will already be too late because it would have been changed already.
Anyways thank you again so much for figuring this out. Dealing with SE is so frustrating: "you bought the phone in Slovakia therefore it is not meant to be used anywhere else." WHAAAAA??!?!?!? Darn SE... have some product support for once.
hi hertell,i try to change language to my xperia but every time it return vodafone spain.I try with generic_it and generic _es but seus upgrade evry time firmware vodafone
So, the same problem with "You phone already has the latest available software installed" with only button "Exit" in SEUS.
Trying all variants described there with no luck....
