Language change

I've bought a t-mobile mda in austria yesterday.can i change the language of my device to english? :?:

Yes you can, by flashing a new ROM. There's multiple ways of doing that. Take a look at http://xda-developers.com/rom for some basic information.
No, we can't give you the ROM itself. It's copyrighted. There's plenty of places on the net where you can get it legally though. Read some of the related topics on this forum

There is no English ROM from T-Mobile in the net (you better do not use the US Version as this might kick the GSM-Part to hell). But you can flash a O2 ROM, first you have to patch that ROM-file (language and model definition)

Hi Mager,
thanks for your reply, i am interested in changing language too, could you please describe what you mean by 'you have to patch that ROM-file' ???
Or please give a hint, where to find the info.
Would be great.
Thanks ako

Very easy just make an sd-card with bootload (see on this site) form an xda with your wish language. start bootloader with this sd-card in your xda (to be updated) press action finish.

I have also purchased a T-Mobile MDA from Germany and would like to change the menu to English. I would be happy to follow your instructions about flashing an O2 Rom but I am unable to find one on the internet. The few places that have updates require a mobile number that is specific to the phone company.
Does anyone know where I can find a european english rom update?
Thanks for your help,

changing language
hi!
i saw your post and im in the same case
did you find how to change your t mobile mda in german to english?
i downloaded the rsu and ruu programs on o2 ireland but when i want to install the ruu it says it cant find rom image (error 007)
did you have an idea???
thanX

I have not managed to find an english rom to download yet. As soon as I do I will let you know what progress I make.

the solution
Hi!
After many trying, at last, i ve find how to change my MDA in german to english language.
My way is not maybe the best one, but it works perfectly!
1. So, you have to download:
- the rsu update on O2 Ireland (rsu_eng.exe)
- the ruu update on O2 Ireland (ruu_eng.exe)
- the ruu update on T Mobile Germany (ruu_cev31307ger_t-mobile_full.exe)
- an hexeditor (i used Free Hex Editor which is a freeware)
2. Install "rsu_eng.exe" (explanation are on O2 Ireland web site)
3. Extract "ruu_cev31307ger_t-mobile_full.exe" in a folder (with winzip for example). Go to the sub-folder named "German". Delete the file named "NK_Jazz31307ger_TMobile_full.nbf". In the same way, extract "ruu_eng.exe" in another folder. Copy "NK_Wallaby31413wwe_O2_Full.nbf" which is present in the sub folder "english" and paste it in the sub-folder "German".
4. Run "Upgrade.exe". Follow the steps until the message which indicate that the next step is the upgrading. Open "NK_Wallaby31413wwe_O2_Full.nbf" with the hexeditor. You have to change the beginning of first line to: "PW10A2-GER-3.14-003". Save the file. Go back to the upgrade utility and press next button.
5. Thats all! It works! Follow all the instructions on your mda and in the explanation on O2 Ireland Like we used to say in France: "C'est vraiment de la bidouille de merde!"
I saw some advice on the web site "pc-counselor" but it doesnt work on my mda like they said, so i try a lot of possibilities.
Now, my ROM version is 3.14.13 ENG O2 Europe (10/09/02) and my radio version is 4.14. If anybody here know where i can find the 3.15.15 ENG O2 Europe (12/11/02) version or another more recent, i will be grateful. Is there a version after radio 4.14?
About others languages, like french, i think its not possible to switch if the telephone operator doesnt provide a rom update in his language. But perhaps there is a way to do it? If someone knows, im interested in.
Sorry to have been long, but since this evening i was really sad not to find a message which explain in detail how to proceed, so i think about others like me
Bye

Thank you for your detailed account. I appreciate your help.
I will let you know how I fair with the transition.
If by any chance you can help me find the Irish programs please let me know.
Thanks, apap

irish update
as i said in my msg, u can find the rsu and ruu programs on the web site of o2 ireland
go to "product and services" section, then to "mobile internet" section, then "xda" section, and there you have "software upgrade"
its done!
nevertheless if you find some upgrade more recent tell it to me please
see ya

Thanks for this, but in order to upgrade I am required to provide an o2 cell number which I don't have.

numbers
in order to download these updates you ONLY have to enter your imei and your product serial number (they explain how to find it on your mda). in the other fiels you can do like me: fill what you want 8)
are u ok now?
ps: for the "xda mobile" field, use the right click button and copy what you want here

Thanks a lot. I will download it. :wink:

Just wanted to let you know that I have followed your instructions and everything worked perfectly. I now have the English O2 language setting.
Thanks again for your help.

I tried to use the proceedure described here but I got an error when it went to do the actual flash, it didnt even start the flash (thank god). I went to download all of the files as described here but the file ruu_cev31307ger_t-mobile_full.exe is not available on T Mobile anylonger. How would I do it by using the newest file available?
I tried to use the same procedures here but instead of changing the text to "PW10A2-GER-3.14-003" as described I used "PW10A2-GER-3.16-003" because that was the file I had downloaded. But this is when I got an error. Should I have used the PW10A2-GER-3.14-003 even though this was not the file I have?
I tell you, this really P*sses me off that T-Mobile doesnt offer an English OS for this damn MDA here in Germany. I mean I understand that I am in Germany and all...but damn, customer service! But I have lived in Germany long enough to know that Customer Service and T-Mobile (German Telekom) do NOT mix, they have NO IDEA how to support customers.....and the US office was not much better (like I would expect them to be!) I mean if all of you can figure out how to do this I am sure they can do it in a manner that would be very easy for the customer and it wouldnt take THAT MUCH on thier behalf....... OK I am done venting now!

MDA Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have purchased a MDA PW10A2 from Germany. Currently I have an adjourned ROM 3.13.36 ger and radio 4.16. I would like to change the language in English.
I have followed your instructions, but with more recent ROM version .
I have not succeeded in effecting the updating.
I have modified the first line of the file English inserting both the version downnloaded of the German rom (PW10A2-GER-3.16-003) and the one used by you. I don't succeed in making the upgrade, it tells me that it is not a valid rom.
Then I have made the original German updating to try the downloaded file.
I would like to try with your ROMs, even if they are less recent but I don't succeed in finding her.
Can you help me???

1) You must change the version at exactly the right time.
2) You DO NOT change ROM version. You just change the hw version it needs (PW10A1 to PW10A2 for example).

changing from german to English
I read your instructions in the forum. Can I use the same method on a O2 xda I bought in Germany? Is there a difference between an mda and an xda?

What do you mean by "change the version at exactly right time?"

Will this work on XDA1 running on WM2003?

Great! I've downloaded it, installed it, but now it doesn't open, and I cannot send or receive MMS... When I click on the program name, its name quickly appears, but then Today come back again. I've made a couple of soft reset, helplessly. I cannot either uninstall this upgrade and come back to the old one.
Help!!!

Great!
You have to setupu for your gsm provider :!:

THanks, but it's already set up with the provider with the first version of MMS COmposer. What I meant in the message is that new version of MMS composer just won't start at all...

have also problems starting this version
I have installed the above linked mmsComposer-v1.6.0.9.zip" on my MDA1 too.
I have PW2003 (T-Mobile ROM update) installed
The installation went well, but the application doesn't start.
I get an error message like "some components or libraries missing"
Who can help?

Yeah I got the same error message!!! some components or libraries are missing! I have XDA I
Have anyone tried it on XDA I?

I installed it on XDAII, it worked pretty well, many bugs was fixed, but the only bug I faced is that it does not auto-disconnect after sending an MMS.. :?

This is not a bug, it leaves the connection open in case you want to send another MMS

i also tried this version & like the other guys it doesn't open at all, as for the people with missing dll, it means u r running it on xda1 which in this case need the camera SW to be installed, for the stupid reason this sw is attached to the camer SW so insall it & should work like charm

would be great if it's only due to missing camera sw.
where can i get the camera-software to install on my MDA1?
donwload-link?
tnks and grtz.
valo

try this but make sure if it stopes giving a missing dll problem but still not opening it means that you have joined the rest of us anyways but don't mena that it doesn't work, on the contrary if u where able to make it work then this is great & further explanation will be glad if posted

:lol: !!!!! great !!!!! :lol:
finally it works without any problems.
thanks a lot
grtz valo

Anyone know where we can get 1.6.0.12 as per the version in the new Orange Danish ROM, or I beleive, the latest Qtek ROM?

Latest Qtek rom 1.66WWE doesnt have the 1.6.0.12 version...
As far as I know only the Orange m1000 roms have it.
Just download an Orange rom and open it with ER2003Edit.
So you can copy the new file

Thanks for the link - I'm downloading it now and will update my handset in the next couple of days.

Why can't I download another ROM than my country's?

I am from Romania and the 1.66 ROM is (still) not available for my serial number. Why HTC doesn't let me install a WWE version? I can get it from here, I know. I was thinking this one: RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.0 7U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe
Is it a good ideea or shoud I wait until they take their time and finally make a ROM for my country?
I want to upgrade so badly because I have a strange problem with the SMS function. When I reply to a message or when I choose a contact from agenda and choose to send SMS to that person then the text I'm writing is very very small, almost unreadable. And it is set on medium size. If I'm trying to write a SMS without choosing an expeditor prior to the typing of the message then the text is normal in size. I have 1.48.479.1(71294)WWE stock ROM.

HTC releases WWE based on region. You have to wait.
I'm also waiting for the rom. Try installing the latest hotfix for the sms problem. If you can't find it, contact me.

The last SMS fix "fixed" me with this problem... I'm looking for a way to remove it but so far nobody knows a way other than reinstalling the ROM.

You can't really.
I asked HTC when i had my TP2 and they told me it was from Czech Republic although i bought it in Romania.
Contact them about it and they will tell you.
