P3300 Artemis - ROM - Help a newbie with a simple doubt

Hello ya'all. This is my first post so first of all I'd like to congratulate you for the excellent site and forum !
There is a lot of resource info around here ! Great Job !!!
But unfortunately for some new people getting into this new world of WMobile even what it looks simple to you might be slightly blurred to us.
I bought in France a HTC P3300
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL1.12.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 1.12.00
ROM 1.12.406.1.FRE
RADIO 02.67.90
PROTOCOL 4.1.13.28
ROM EXT V.1.12.406.101
ARTE 100
Of course the WM came in French. Well I am willing to change it to WWEnglish and I've been doing my homework researching and reading, reading, reading through this website. Found the steps to do it thanks to Kleinemeus at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290241 and found the DOPODAU and LOVE ROMS as well the Extended Rom in the ftp site. As well as I found my P3300 is the same as MDA compact III, XDA Orbit, P800W, Dopod P800 ....
But I still a couple of silly doubts that I gonna ask for you MASTERS your mercy to clarify me with your wisdoom and expertise.
1) After flashing my P3300 with a English ROM will it have all same basic features/programs I have in French like, the radio, tomtom gps, etc ? In other words, doing this is like getting a desktop that came with windows in french and installing a windows in english ?
2) After being successful of flashing the Rom following the steps described in the link above by Kleinmeus how can I upgrade the Extended Rom found at the ftp ?
I really appreciate if someone could help me with these 2 questions.
Thanks in advance !!!

It should work
Be careful when flashing becos many ppl cant get it right.
If you manage to flash it successfully you should have almost the same functionality.
I dnt know abt the ROM.
Is ur phone CID unlocked?If not do it before u change the ROMS.It will be a big disaster if u get stuck in between and u cant do anything.

Yups, you'll have all the basic apps that are part of WM5.
Regarding TomTom or other Commercial GPS applications, these are not part of WM5 package and are installed by supplier, so you'll have to confirm whether the ROM that you are planning to flash has that specific GPS app.
Regardinf Extended ROM, these come as part of ROM that you will plan to flash. Usually people only take some specific apps/patches from other Extended ROM that wasn't part of supplied/flashed ROM (i guess I am right about this)

Hello mr. Flow84! Could you please upload German ROM for P330, we are impatiently waiting for your upload. Thanks!

I found a German ROM for my o2 XDA on the FTP site - here is the link...
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Upload/Official XDA Orbit ROM/
Maybe it isnt what you are lookng for, but it got me out of a pinch today.
Tschüs

i have found the rom.And have try it.I can only boot in booloader mode.Nothing else work.If i activate bootloader mode and plug in the usb cable i hear the sound that usb is connected.But if i start the original rom update it doesn't recognize the phone. Error 260 appears Verbindung(connection)

I also had to load this rom from bootloader. If the rom doesnt see the phone, restart the phone into bootloader again. I noticed that if it tried to find the phone once and couldnt, it would not ever be able to unless I reset the phone and put it back in bootloader. this rom will work, just keep playing with it.

ROM GER, i need to
I need that rom, can who send where

HTC P3300 German ROM
hugeman66 yesterday posted link to German ROM: http://download.sunrise.ch/downloads/manuals/qtek-windows/P3300_softwareupdate_GER.zip
I unbrick my Artemis by the first part.

Hello,
there should be some question answered for the ROM inside the archive <P3300_softwareupdate_GER.zip> before flashing.
1. Is the Rom an Original HTC 3300 ROM? (with TomTom inside)
2. Is this ROM WM5 or WM6? (nobody answered that question yet)
3. Which file inside the arcive should be used?
<P3300_softwareupdate_GER_1.exe> or
<P3300_softwareupdate_GER_2.exe> or both
4. In which order should I use that two files?
As long as these question are`t answered, everybody should keep the fingers away from flashing, because he did`t know, what he is doing. Some help from a "guru" would be helpfully. =
Thanks and Bye, Sven
Note: ... using MDA compact III (GER) with WM6 O² ROM, with 4GB microSDHC which in`t working. I`ll hope to fing a solution as soon as possible.

bad Rom installed ...

Hello there!
First of all, please excuse my terrible english ... but I hope you can help me!
I unlocked my Athena reffering to this link ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315831
... and everything went well!
I installed this rom ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346221
.. and everthing was really awesome !
Then I noticed that the keyboard layout was qwerty .. and as I am a german I´d like to have qwertz ans so I installed this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399938
Unfortunatedly I´ve chosen the wrong one (strange order of links) because after installing the rom The Device comes up with the warning descriped in the post ... and what´s worst and actually my Problem:
The device resets each time during the "customization", reboots and tries to do the custom again.
It resets even when I try to install another rom ... no tricolor screen or anything!
So the device is now running an unusable OS and I don´t know how to install a new one!
HELP ... I need somebody!

... solved!
found a solution here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...e Athena Unlocker - the Black Screen of Death
.. or at least how to install a new rom!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397518
you can find the links to the ATHENA ROM.
Other German ATHENA users could provide some help to set the Kb
Carefully chose the SPL version, 1.2 since you install AP4, after AP4 you will have the newly partitioned ATHENA, with SPL 3.5 (no way to flash any original HTC ROM or an 1.2 SPL ROM, a tool to revert it back is in developing stage)

Upgrading info for beginner :-)

Hi guys,
thank you a lot for this fantastic websit. Sorry for my English - I am Czech. I hope, that you will understand me. In past I had a HTC vox, but few weeks ago I´ve bought a CRUISE. Everything was Ok, but I wanted to made a upgrade from WM 6,0 to 6,1. I corectly unlocked my cruise and I tried to upgrade to new (unoficial ROM).
I tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478029
and this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425612
Upgrading was ok, but after upgrading I have no signal on my PHONE ???
My next step was: I made a upgrade to oficial HTC WM 6,1 from HTC website.
With original WM 6,1 is everything Ok, but I would like to have beter ROM, than original HTC.
At all treads here, you are writing about RADIO? What is it? Is it a driver, which is included in every ROMs and this driver is for PHONE RADIO control?
Is it possible to upgrade only "RADIO" ??? I dont understand a lot this section. When I was upgrading my VOX, there were no problem with this. Every drivers was included in ROM - notning problem.
Thanks for your comment

Do you know if it Elf or Elfin (Elfin is double memory), it's important if you have to flash a rom. Here's a link for original roms http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Elf_Upgrades , none is Italian.

yes it's surely elf because on the box the name is htc p3450/3452 Ita S
so elf isn't S i think is the xl model

now i'm going out, but if you can help me to know what is the problem, tomorrow we can meet again
i want to remove tim's brand and i will put in a good rom with large buttons
see you bb and thanks

As far as I know xl is elfin, and if you flashed the wrong rom maybe that's why you got this problem. Anyway here's a link to a good friend who's probably more expert on Italian roms than me, Flaviopak, send him a pm http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=778494
