Hello to all experts,
I have some questions... (from a noob)
- What is needed to translate the rom into new language ... is there a language cab or ... ?
- Integrating additional memory chip (I've been told that there is possibility to stick another chip above the existing one) ... has anyone tried this ?
I apreciate all you did so far ... thank you
Hi.
By translating ROM I assume you mean having the OS in a different language?
There are two ways:
1) If the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) of your device provides ROMs in different languages you can just download it from their site and reflash. The installation program will guide you step by step and usually it is as simple as connecting your device and clicking 'next' several times.
2) All the strings, menus and the rest of the interface is stored is special files called MUI. (example: coreres.dll.0409.mui - 0409 = English US)
If you can get a set of this files with the language you want and copy them to the device it will do the trick.
If you want more specific instructions you have to tell us what device you have and to what language do you want to translate it (some languages have special requirements)
As for memory chip: Some devices can be upgraded (like IPAQ 4700) but this has to be done in a lab with special tools.
Once again, without knowing what device you have I cannot give you a specific answer.

Hi levenum,
thank you for your time and detailed answers.
Yes, sorry for making you guess but my question is answered under your second answer. What I need is translation of the OS or translation of all strings in OS interface.
My intention is to translate MUI in Albanian (latin) and Macedonian language(cyrilic). I've googled for these language packs but no luck so far.
At the moment I have BlueAngel AKU3.2; ROM 5.04.06WWE; Radio 1.15. and Wizzard G4 with molski ROM.
- Memory upgrading - we would like to try on Magician but any advice is welcome.
Thank you again
Ok, well here some more info then:
1) Since Latin and Cyrillic fonts already exist on all devices with English ROM you won't need to replace font files.
2) If you want to do the translation yourself you will need an app like Resource Hacker or one of the MS IDEs (Visual Studio, eMbedded VC, Platform Builder) MUI are basically exe and dll files that have only resources and no code (they must be in correct exe / dll format).
3) MUIs for system files on WM5 devices must be signed to load.
You should talk to asukal and buzz_lightyear. They made several translation packs for different devices and will be able to guide you in detail.
I have a complete set of 0413 mui files, can I simply replace them in a Rom?
I dumped the (WWE) Rom with imgfs_tools, if I replace all the 0409 files with 0413 files will that work?
Does these files not have to be signed or something?

I hv an ipaq hw6915 with Rom version 1.50.00, pls how can i charge the language to english.
timjaba, in your case you just need to go to HP site and download an English ROM for your device.
I am not 100% certain but if they ever made a ROM upgrade for it there should be one there.
how to flash the english rom onto the Ipaq hw6915?
Hello Levenum,
I have downloaded an English rom for the HP Ipaq hw6915, but I don't know what to do with it. How do I flash it onto the Ipaq in such a way that it will replace the panish language currently installed on it?.... It is a dump.bin file, about 128 MB in size.
Any help is highly appreciated!
Greetings Tom

Hi,
after 2 days reading and testing I was able partly to extract english language from the sticky x1 rom and replace swedish inside phone rom.
as I understand to edit all language files YOu must be able after to flash new rom to phone, cos I could not copy some mui filesfom windows dir.and cooud not extract them from sticky rom as I wanted.
Hurray? You could have waited a little longer and gotten a proper english version too!
Yes I`ll defenetly use real english rom when it comes.
and it was main try to localize to other languages.
If everything will work I`ll try to translate to latvian. maybe?
I people.
I buy a polaris with english language rom but i wan´t put the portuguese rom.
How i can do it ?
thanks
Hello,
If you know the ROM perhaps there's a language file for it.
If not than you have to install a ROM with your chosen language.
Please correct me if there are other opportunities.
Regards,
I read the tutorial but I think it is different from what I am trying to do.
I have an unprotected ROM of another language (Russian).
I want to use that ROM as a base ROM, and so I require to change it to English language. I also have another ROM which is in English, so maybe I could use some packages/parts from this English ROM to convert the Russian ROM to English?
Is there is a way to do this, or if this has already been answered then can you link me there? (I already tried searching)
Thanks
I think it would be great if one of the chefs could make a tutorial for converting a rom to wwe. I have tried several times after reading various threads and had no success. Please help us someone...............

If it's really unprotected you can import the rom with OsKitchen and cook it by adding the SYS, MUIs and changing the folders in the app.dat files.
