german rom to english one?

hello everyone. i hope my question isn't 'off-topic'.can somebody please tell me when there will be an english rom that could substitute the german one provided with the mda vario that comes from t-mobile?the reason is that i would like to change the german rom with the english one,because i do not speak german but i bought the phone from germany where i was the past weekend.thank you all in advance!

German ROM in Vario
I am not sure, but the Qtek 9100 or I-Mate K-Jam ROMs should be pretty much useful for U, if you can get them.
Wher the hell did you buy the MDA vario in Germany? I am living here and I can not get it. When I was trying to order it from T-mobile I was told on the phone, that the units will be available on January 18, 2006 ! C R A Z Y ! !

to all of you asking from where i got it let me tell you that i bought from dusseldorf from a cousin of mine.but from what i know many people got through the net from well known german sites! but what i am asking is if there is an english rom to change the german one?please if someone knows...

Officially no "cousins" :shock: and no well known german sites do sell the Vario in Germany, yet. If you really have it - U R LUCKY!
@ fut. problem: You could also try the US ROM form the US-version of the Vario. Maybe using the miniSD card and the backup software /w "backup/restore All data".

I just bought MDA Vario and have the same problem(((( everything is in dutch PLUS it's sim-locked. ANYONE HELP!!!!!!!!!

""Officially no "cousins" and no well known german sites do sell the Vario in Germany""

MDA Compact VS O2 Mini VS VPA Compact

Hi guys!
I got a question, may be its very stupid but I have to make decision till tomorrow noon and that’s why I need your help. :lol:
Tomorrow i'll have to buy one of the following magicians:
1) T- Mobile MDA Compact
2) O2 XDA mini
3) Vodafone VPA Compact
All of them for the same price - $410 (what do u think? :roll: )
The question is simple, which one should I go for :?: :?: :?:
Your advices would be really appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

I don't like the design of the VPA, but the design of the MDA and XDA is the same.
Buy the one from your provider, so it's easier with the settings for GPRS etc...

e-bay
A friend of mine got his mini in E-bay arround €250, I dont now u could give it a try.

The VPA looks more "professional" and less like a girly toy. :wink:

Not sure what you mean by girly. My MDA looks very contemporary because of its modern silvery look. clean design.
BTW I were you, I would go for the new JasJar... am going to get it soon.

I got mine from Ebay too - also for 250€. Hasn't been opened or used before me. I think 410$ is far too much to spend.
In my opinion the MDA Compact from T-Mobile looks most professional, the O2 printing looks cheap in my opinon...

New Housing

Does anyone know if there is a place in the UK that will do replacement housing for the Vario II?
I am surprised T Mobile dont offer this!!

Please post in the Hermes accessories forum, you will then get a better response to your question. This is the Hermes section.

T-Mobile MDA Compact III into an XDA Orbit 1 Case, possible?

Hi all,
According to what I have understood, P3300 hardware is almost the same,
the only difference between O2 XDA Orbit and T-Mobile MDA COMPACT III is that T-Mobile Version have the WI-Fi disabled.
Does this mean that if I buy a new O2 XDA ORBIT cover for a T-Mobile, this will fit it?
Did anyone experimented that before?

...
simple answer.. yes!
you may need 2 extra screws for it though..
i cant remember whether its the o2 or tmobile cover that has the extra 2 screws..

thank you!
I'll have a try with a new orbit case..
