i found yesterday a french rom on Orange business website:
http://www.mobilite.fr.orange-business.com/public/oev4/html/fr/pme/mobiles/ba/dl.php?mi=192&pi=2510
i tried this one on an english hw6915 and now i have a french one
i used the updater that come with the rom and i didn't modify anything
orange logo everywhere, i don't know if this rom can simlock the phone to Orange
and there is Orange navigator instead of tomtom
i Hope this can help the hw6900 community
(sorry for my poor english ^^)
edit : the phone isn't simlocked, i've just tried a SFR sim card (another french gsm network)
Great ROM. I flashed it to my Vodafone 6910, although it turns my phone from English to French, this ROM is more responsive than the orginal rom. The version is 1.65.01FRA, rom date is 01/30/07, while my orignal version is 1.13UK. The best thing about this rom, it does not check if the phone is the same language version, it just went ahead and did the update. For those who once has ur phone stuck in bootloader, this one can save ur phone, although make it a French one. So far so good.

Seem older than Orange ROM, but I had problems disassembling the Orange ROM. This one can be cooked (the other too, but how?).
Hw 6915 Rom Flash
Hi,
I have an English HW6915 , I want to pass it in French. If I use the Bouygues Rom what will happen to the Keyboard?
This rom is supposed to work on FRENCH IPAQ with AZERTY keyboard. The English comes with a QWERTY keyboard.
Did someone check ?
If you want a copy of the rom before I put it in French just ask and tell me how to do it. OSimage tool does not work.
Regards,
Chris
Rom UPGRADE
I just made a try with my french hw6915 to go from the Bouygues to the orange rom. I do not see any difference if I flash with the full package:
- radioFs.nbf
- radioOs.nbf
- CEBL.nbs
- CEOS.nbf
or only with
- CEOS.nbf
Do you know what are the 3 others files. By the way going to and from the orange rom does not change the fact that my hw6915 is simlocked on Bouygues.
If someone knows how to unlock it I am interested.
Chris

CEBL - boot loader
radio* - radio stuff, the gsm phone software for hardware (to recieve calls, gprs data and so on)
I've upgraded my 1.24FRA to 1.65FRA, looks ok, the only improvement I've noticed is that it doesn't leak memory anymore if you have push mail enabled. Recommended upgrade.

I Finished A Lucky Upgrade For My Hw6915 To English Os... I Just Need Some Radio.nba Backup From An Original English Device (version 1.21uk), Backup Made With Awizard...
Please explain the procedure for eng update
Hi wikidorg,
Please upload the files somewhere (os.nbh) and explain the procedure to upgrade to eng version. Ruu file will also be needed.
Drahtman
Hi Drahtman... there is no os.nbh in english in my upgrade... i have only clean upgrade (with tested Ruu and hexedited CEOS.nbf) for the group of four languages supported by HP official 6900 series updates: German, Spanish, Danish and French... For the english update i simply used awizard tool, and the 1.21.00uk ceos.nba downloaded from xda-developers forum...i made hundreds of unsuccessfully tests upon the french OS, and, after flashing with spanish OS, awizard method worked from the first try... so, now is english 1.21uk..
Regards
Are you shure this is working ?
Hi wikidorg,
I will try this when i will have time. I hope this is working solution ? Are you shure about that ?

(meanwhile, i've made a new try with English OS nba via awizard method, this time from "Safe mode", after hard reset my hw6915 have English OS and all programs work fine... I need the radio.nba backup from original 1.21uk installation, to test via the same method...)

You mean I must flash my 6915 to spanish os firstly then use awizard tool flash 1.21.00uk ceos.nba into it? Would you please send me a e-mail about how to flash my 6915 to english os? My E-mail address is [email protected]
best regards
palamedes
for aWizard it doesn't matter OS language as long as you work "by the book" with program's instructions... i was just posting the things how it worked that day; i changed my OS language about 10 times from that day and worked everytime... but aWizard is not a "secure way" so I intend to find a way to obtain English CEOS.nbf to put it toghether with Sable_RUU, and most of all, to find a stable RadioOs.nbf and RadioFS.nbf and release the complete solution... By now I can work exclusivelly with OS, all i have posted here is not a real upgrade, is language changing (with a secondary upgrade effect)... Anyway, my 6915 is still bricked, with no radio GSM, as a result of my first try to change the language), so don't flash anything except the CEOS.nbf and to 69xx... And, by the way, if SOMEONE CAN MAKE A RADIO BACKUP WITH AWIZARD, it would be helpful...
Hi wikidorg !
What do you mean with bricked radio ? Why dont you try with french ROM like i did ? This French upgrade includs GSM stack and OS upgrade. I did it your way this ENG upgrade, but something went wrong in the midle of upgrade process so i went to bootloader mode and upgrade my iPAQ with French ROM witch included GSM stack and then repeated your procedure of ENG upgrade. Why dont you try this way like i do ? By the way, you never mentioned in your procedure that i must do 3 steps in awizard tools. My first step was: Enable RAPI with "e" <enter> then Unlock CID with "u" <enter> and the last step was Start with OS ROM write to the device "w" <enter>. Then everything went well and after 10 min. the procedure successfuly ends. After a Hard Reset the system boot up and evrything was OK ! One thing still was not OK, the french folders from FRENCH upgrade was present in windows folder, so i deleted them and this was it. And the second thing: After Hard reset, when the windows boot up for the first time, you must wait until windows come to the point where screen aligning begin, then you must Soft Reset the Windows and this is it. I hope this thread will help someone.

Drahtman
Hi Drahtman
Well, i supposed you knew to deal with aWizard, like everybody else trying to flash the 69xx, and, however, the procedure is very well described in aWizard's contents...You can also immagine i already knew what's inside the French upgrade... i've tryed hundreds of full flash (including RadioOs and everything else), but radio stack crash at 1%... and not only with the french RadioOs (btw, is an ENG RadioOs+RadioFs), but with all the other RadioOs and RadioFs from other upgrades.. the same result, the radio stack crash at 1%... that's happening from the first time i tryed Orange upgrade (some weird text appeard at Radio version in Sable_RUU, but i wasn't paying attention that time)...
anyway, you said you can help, just send a radio.nba made with aWizard and i'll try to put it into my 6915 to see if that works...
regards...

TNG, that's is NOT an english update, is the GERMAN ceos.nbf ver 1.47... is just a bad joke from someone with a weird sense of humour... thanks anyway...
Hi wikidorg,
I try this morning to read the radio rom out of my iPAQ but with no success.
I thing this awizard tools dont support this operation on iPAQs. What do you thing about that ? Sorry i will try to find another solution just give me some time.
Regards,
Drahtman
no problem, i was suspecting it won't work but i thought it worthed a try...
see, Drahtman, if we have a full CEOS.nbf (let's say the French version), 65.291kb, we have some tools to split the nbh into parts (nbhextract),tools to transform nbf to nbh, we could obtain separate extracts from the CEOS, including the os.nb which seems to be the same size with the English CEOS.nba from aWizard method... Then, if we could reverse the whole process, after switching the new generated os.nb with our English CEOS.nba, perhaps we could put togheter an English CEOS.nbf with the same size like the French CEOS.nbf and i could try to make it works with Sable_RUU... what about that?
Great idea !
This sounds good, but could you do that ? I read a lot on this forum but this is not so simple. If somebody could help on this project will be much easyer. Why all the people who needs this ENG rom dont do anything ? I was try this because of you and it worked out. Maybe, if i write down the exact procedure, somebody will try out this awizard hw6915 ENG upgrade. Please somebody report success story on this awizard ENG upgrade ! I was try this and it worked (with some little problems), but it worked ! I will write down this procedure in the future so anybody can upgrade his iPAQ to 1.21 UK ROM version. If somebody will have succes on this upgrade please let me know.
Best Regards,
Drahtman
there is an alternate method: using cert_spcs.cab and enablerapi.cab from aWizard and installing "wizard service tool" you have a GUI flasher for the same 1.21.00 UK ENGLISH nba... lot easyer, you can see flash progress "on the fly"... is tested by me and works 100%... DO NOT USE any other feature from "WIZARD SERVICE TOOL", unless you know what you do...

I've read this forum and seen some links for Dutch ROM's but I'm unsure whether this is Windows Mobile in Dutch or something else
Can someone help me out?

Dear all experts,
I bought dopod C800 in Thailand and use interface as english version but as I'm half french, i prefer to change to French ROM if possible.
How can I unlock CID and flash french Rom.
Thanks in advance.
in the future, please search for your answer before you ask a question.
To CID unlock your phone, install the HardSPL that is found in one of the Herald forums. Alternatively, use the USPL to flash a rom while bypassing the CID lock.
However, to my knowledge, there are no French roms for the Herald.
