First of all the correct unlock utility can be found on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33796
The next most important thing is to know how to do a hard reset, you hold the "Communication Manager" and "Voice Speed Dial" buttons while pressing in the soft reset button(that is the small button next to the IR port), make sure to keep holding the two buttons after you press the soft reset. Then a screen will apear to have you hit the green call button to make sure you want to reset. This will format your user info and make you peform the startup tests again.
If you want to load an english rom, I suggest the Qtek one since it is very easy and all the software runs on the computer instead of needing to load files on to a SD card or the wizard. The whole application can be found here:
http://www.beyondthetech.com/blogs/kjam/
The link to the file is at the bottom of the page in the last blog. You will need to have Active Sync 4.1 for this phone and it will have to be working for this application to work.
Have fun everyone and I think this forum is great.

Hello Everyone,
I have MDA COMPACT on t-mobile, and i have tried to change the themes but i cant change the bizzare T-mobile theme, it comes up in every where with t-mobile
colors. So does someone did this whithout any problems, Please let me know any easy way ....
Thanks
Some programs are install from the EXT-Rom,they can't be removed from control panel.I think you need to modify or "unlock"your EXT-ROM install list with a tool,then try to remove them or do a hard-reset.May be someone has a better idea.
If you are only unsatisfied with your GPRS or network setting,you can just delete the setting in "connection"
The easyiest way to do it is:
- make a full backup
- Hard Reset
- align screen
- soft reset during 3 sec. count down before autoinstall of software included in Extended Rom.
Now U have clean system with full acces to extended rom so U can install all needed software manually (ie. MMS composer, BT patch, camera software).

Hard reset your MDA Compact (power+soft reset). Do all the neccesary steps (choosing your country and timezone) and when you get in the screen that tells you to tap the screen in order to start working, have your stylus at the soft-reset hole tap the screen with your finger and do a soft reset IMMMEDIAELY AFTER YOU TAP THE SCREEN!

Hi folks,
I made a "German Language Pack" (cab), which makes some german features available. See below
I am also working on a french version but I do nt have the french dictionary file for spell checking (mssp2_fr.lex) nor a french table for áà,... (sym.txt). If anyone could pm it to me I would be happy to update the language pack. Until then spell checking and symbols are as original only...
How-To:
1. download zip-file and unzip
2. copy cab-file to PPC
3. execute cab-file.
4. Softreset device
More information on the changes to registry and the included files are in the enclosed inf-file.
This tool was written for the Wizard device, but as the only Wizard-specific things are the settings for the hardkeyboard there shouldn't be any complications with other devices running WM5.
If anyone has suggestions for improving my little tool I would be pleased, if you could tell me!!
Hades.
new version with autocomplete feature added.
Still working on softkeyboard... - any suggestions?
hi hades,
does your little localizer work with the new aku2-roms? i have a himalaya aka xda2 with tofclock's 2.01a64wwe rom which is aku2. thanks for any info.
peter
i cannot report for any Himalaya images as using a Wizard (i-mate ROM 2.16). But the little tool does nothing system-critical. It only adds a view files and changes some registry settings, which are pointing to these files or concerning language settings. Therefore it should work with any WM5-device and -ROM, without interfering with any other abilities. I guess the settings concerning the hardkeyboard will just be ignored if the device does not have one.
For further information on all actions taken by the tool, please have a look at the enclosed inf file.
Hope that helped!
Hades.
transcriber doesn't work any more
I've just installed your french language pack on my Dopod with the latest Dopod rom 2.15.13.27 WWE and the transcriber doesn't work any more not in French neither in English. I get the message: Une erreur est survenue lors du chargement du moteur de reconnaissance de fichier.dll Vérifiez le chemin et la quantité de mémoire disponible.
I've followed your instructions and installed it successfully but I then got the message that the program was meant for an older version of WM and that maybe it would not work.
Is there a way to uninstall it without messing with the registry? My problem is worsened by the fact I can't manage a hard reset. I tried everything holding down the power button with the stylus in the small hole, sometimes also holding down the camera button at the same time, sometimes with the device turned on and sometimes turned off. No way, impossible to hard reset! Please help me, and thank you anyway for your work. I was very excited and I am now very disappointed.
yes it's a good idea
thanks
sorry 'bout that. I wasn't able to test the french language pack myself. I have overlooked the file and cannot imagine why it shouldn't work as it is similiar to the german one which is working quite well. Information on the changed registry settings are in the enclosed inf-file.
But anyway you should be able to uninstall it with the WM5 built-in uninstall feature (Settings --> System --> remove(?) programs). Perform a softreset thereafter by long pressing the standby-button (not digging the reset hole!)
To Hard reset your device you have to press and hold the comm and voicedial buttons simultanously, then press the reset button (small hole) with your pen, while still holding the other two buttons for a while, until finally you are questioned if you wan to completly delte your device. You have to confirm by pressing the green button. Make sure you have a bakup - I'd recommend SPB Backup.
Well, once again sorry.
Hades.
Thank you again for your kind answer. Actually I had to reflash my rom cause I couldn't do any hard reset. I was stupid not to think of removing the program first, since I didn't think it was a "regular" program. You mention the comm and voice dial buttons as two different buttons but actually on my Dopod it's only one button. Did you mean then the power and voice dial together, which coud make sense and which I didn't try cause nothing like it is mentioned in the user guide. Do you think I could have got the problem with your program because I used the stylus in the hole to soft reset my device after installing the french package. It is the procedure mentioned in the user guide for soft reset, contrary to what you tell me now. Thanks again
oh ok - I was assuming you have a HTC Wizard (don't know the dopod model number). If it's not a Wizard I have no idea how to hardreset it. But I hope you're using WM5, for my little utility is for WM5 only.
If you do a soft-reset after a change of the registry using the reset-hole the changed settings may not be stored on your device. That is because the registry-file is not immediatly updated after the changes, but stored in a temporary space and later (who knows when!) written to the file. So if you reset it by hardware-button the changes are still in the temporary space and therefore gone after the reset. If you do the reset by using software-reset function (provided by e.g. SPB Pocket+ or magicbutton) or simply switch off the device using the standby-button, the temporary space is written to disk before shutting down. That's it.
À bientôt,
Hades.
P.S.: I updated the language pack, cause I found a minor difference to the german one. (Compare inf-file) But I can't tell, that that was the problem.
My Dopod is a 818Pro with WM5, so it's a Prophet and practically the same as a Wizard, as I've seen in the forum. What you say about soft reset is very interesting since I haven't seen it discussed very often in this forum and i searched it quite thoroughly. Have you tried removing your program through the regular WM5 procedure? You seem to imply that the registry was not changed after my soft resetting with the hardware button, but it seems strange to me since after resetting I got the french warning I mentioned in my first post, and it was the first ever message in french from my english speaking device! Some change had definitely occured in the registry or somewhere else. Thanks again
well. I tried to remove and it worked. Concerning your registry I don't know wether it was changed or not. Depends on many things, I think.
Sorry,
Hades.
I've just installed the German package on my Himalaya device with English AKU 3.2. It works Thank you Hades!

Hi guys,
I Know it's here somewhere, the dialpad skin changing process for WM05, but dunno why, Can't find it by searching.
Could someone more up to date on all the threads point me to it please?
also, my Himalaya got a O2 image when booting, and I want to change it, (at least to a Qtek one), but have no ideia how to do it. Any thread here that shows how to do it? unfortunatelly, Hard Reset is not an option, as my power button is broken :\
Thank's in advance for any help

Hi all,
When I purchased my Touch 3G from Singapore (Starhub) last week with the factory ROM the Today Screen with TouchFLO was showing "Programs" as the right softkey and the programs had the audio manager.
Once I upgraded the ROM to latest provided by HTC website for Asia WWE released date 2009-04-17. The right softkey is replaced by "Camera" and the Audio Manager Icon is not present in the programs.
Is this a bug or feature?
I really liked the old setup and was wondering if anyone knows how to replace the "Camera" softkey back to "Programs" and include the Audio manager icon into the programs.
Or if someone out there has the old version of the ROM.
Appreciate all the help.
Regards
Hi Buddy,
You have to add or edit the Registry Key
You need Registry Editor
1. Go to HKLM\Software\HTC\manila2D\Home\
2. Edit or add SK2 = "Your Own Text"
3. Edit or add SK2Cmd = "\windows\AudioManager.exe"
4. SOFTRESET
It work for me.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you cannot go back to the older ROM once you upgrade to the new one. I remember reading it on the download site.
i update my jade too ... it still work with the new rom just add or edit the Registry Key.
I posted the issue to the HTC tech Support, it seems they are calling this the new feature, the new upgraded ROM will have the Camera as default.
The softkeys should be configurable as default.
Had installed M2DC to configure the keys to any application, works like a charm.
But there is no way to get the Manila 2D Program folder to be configured. Anyone out there knows please post the solution.
