Windows reinstall or upgrade

Hello All,
I have a problem with my HTCP3300. I have no alarm sounds active (calendar appointments, tasks etc.)
There are some errors giving during work with it (error with exe.file).
I tried to find english version to reinstall it, but couldn't find enywhere.
I would be grateful if someone helps me with advise where to find english version or newer one in order to solve my problems.
Thank you in advance.

Maybe you're searching in the wrong forum. Go to Artemis Mobile 6, there are lots of ROMs (Tom_Codon, Meschle, Fracoon....)
Most of them are in english (WWE).
Remember: Don't forget to run USPL before flashing or you will brick your phone...
Cheers

Please, be so kind to advise me what is that ROM ?
Is it the one I should look for in order to solve my problem.
I have been reading through the link you sent me, but I am afraid I am not that good in this.

I personally use the official HTC WM6 rom V3.7. Its from HTC asia but its in english (as that seems to be the primary language for a few places over there). Running for months now and all is good. Fast, no bugs, no problems on my MDA III.

You have the HTC Elfin and there is no official WM 6.1 update available for your device and probably wont ever be one. On the HTC Website it shows the WM 6.1 update but probably says not available for your device when you try to install it. This is because the linked it to Elf by accident and fixed the problem in order to avoid people downloading to elf or elfin and bricking their devices. The WM 6.1 official ROM update is for the HTC touch Vogue. You can search this site; however, for custom cooked ROM's for the Elfin that has WM 6.1. Make sure you do plenty of reading and studying on how to flash a custom cooked ROM to your device and you will have to make sure that your device is unlocked. I am sorry I cannot help you more than this since I don't know much about flashing custom ROM's since I myself have not done it yet to my Elfin. There is lots of information available on this site though and several ROM's available for the Elfin.
Start by reading through the WIKI here to begin learning
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elfin
Good luck

thanku you all for showing interests in my query

Do you have the HTC OPAL otherwise known as the VIVA
You said "Stops the viva"? If you have the VIVA and not the Elfin stop flashing roms for Elfin to your device.
OPAL / VIVA look similar to Vogue and Elf and Elfin but is a different device
See links here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Opal
and here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=442
If you have the Opal/Viva - you need to post in that forum to try to get some help. You may have done a very bad thing flashing an elf or elfin ROM to the device if you do in fact have the VIVA.
You really need to do lots of reading. Make sure you know which device you do have, then proceed.
VIVA though is suppose to already have WM 6.1 so I am hoping I am wrong in this assumption for your sake.

I think he means he 's frustrated the viva was launched after he bought his elfin. There should be a dot after "stops" . Beside that your advice was very sound

Why are you giving this warning? I haven't upgraded to a custom ROM myself yet; however, have read that there are many members who are very happy with their custom ROM's and WM 6.1
Do you have a valid reason for this warning or is it just your personal choice / preference.
From what I have been reading, choosing to upgrade ROM is personal choice and one that you choose to do at your own risk and or benefits all depending on what your needs are. The reason I have not upgraded is that I have not yet felt that I needed to. I am very happy with my stock WM 6.0 ROM and the performance of my device. This is the only reason I havn't upgraded.
What are your reasons? It is not my intention to discredit you or attack you. I am legitimately curious as to what your reasons for this statement are.

[Help] Update recomendation on xda exec

Hi there!
Today I've bought an xda exec with the following specs:
Rom: 1.13.82 WWE
Radio: 1.04.02
RAM: 64MB
What is the recommended update to the ROM and Radio I can do?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards!

That's an old O2 ROM. The latest (last!) original XDA EXEC ROM from O2 can be found here.
Then there's an ocean of home-cooked ROMs, mostly WM6.x (you gain A2DP and other features but lose on video calling).

Welcome to Uni forum (gosh, I sound just like Orb2000 now ) Actually, make it ORB3000!!!! There, much better!
While we cannot recommend a particular ROM and Radio combination, your device comes with standard features, so pretty much anything that takes your fancy and is suitable for your device in this section would be perfect for the taking. The first thing you should do is read the Wiki, it contains loads of necessary information to help you identify your device and its features for the upgrade purposes and avoid any mistakes or pitfalls. Then you can familiarize yourself with available ROMs and read user opinions and feedback on their performance and features. Generally the best performers will be found on top of the WM6.1 upgrade section marked as a Sticky. Finally, once you get to know all you need and are ready to upgrade, you will be able to try some out and select the one that has the best combination of features FOR YOU. As far as Radio is concerned, there is no fast and steady rule for a perfect combo, some developers will recommend the Radio to be used with their ROM, some users will suggest what works for them, you can always try various versions (ftp server is your friend) and see which will work best for you.
Best of luck. Enjoy!

Thanks!
I've already read lot's of information on wiki for universal...
Already unlocked the "sim lock" and just updated the radio to the last one (1.18.00). Before the universal, I had an Magician (still have it, and working great with the WM 6.1 by cotulla).
I've read about the G3 and bootloader, but didn't understand how to update the bootloader (my universal have 1.00 version)... What is that for?
Also, I will try the WM6.5 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529951 because read 'bout that and like it... just one question.. it the 6.1 better than the 6.5? If I change the rom to 6.5 can I change back to any other, inclusive the 6.1 rom?
Thanks!

6.1 ROMs are more developed and used, therefore will be more stable and practical in everyday usage. Another thing is available resources, e.g. 6.5 ROMs tend to be on resource-hungry side, therefore those of us with standard 64Mb machines will not get as much free RAM or speed in some cases available to run our favorite programs as those with devices upgraded to 128Mb. You can try 6.5, of course, just note the above points. And of course you will be able to downgrade to other 6.1 or shipped ROMs.

[Q]please help me guys

Hi, I have elfin (HTC Touch) and I have Windows Mobile 6 professional and I want to upgrade it to 6.5 so can anyone type me a link so I can download the ROM directly because there is more than one ROM in the forum and I'm afraid to download a wrong one so please help me...thanks

First you read this guide completely.
Link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406721

I read it well and I knew big information about my elfin but really I don't know how to start please tell my what to do first I can tell you the info about my elfin
ROM Version:2.20.707.1B WWE
ROM Date:10/02/07
Radio Version:03.07.90

EXT ROM Version:2.20.707.101
Windows Mobile 6 Professional
CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)

mind my sarcasm...but he meant to say...to upgrade your device without damaging it...you will need to follow some instructions....and if you read it well and if you are a sane guy...then you would atleast EDIT your POST and remove the god damn IMEI of your device....people dont give away their IMEI jus like that you know...its something only you should know...and jus so you know...i m not trying to piss you off cos you are as we call a newbie....so here is a breakdown of what you need to do
1. your device is an ELFIN...so we know
2. jus like you unlock your sim to use your phone...you need to unlock your device...(so that it becomes writable)
3. to do so...you would need to make use of a part of software called USPL and IPL...USPL does the part of keeping your device unlocked...and IPL needs to remain the same series....if you flashed a USPL of 3.XX then your IPL shud be 3.XX series
4. now do the reading on your own this time and discover all flavours of 6.5 ROMS available here....
btw i wonder why you havent tried the official 6.1 ROM from HTC

thanks so much, first i don't know even the difference between the 6.1 and the 6.5 but when i saw some topics about 6.5 and the people said that it works better with the HTC touch so I think in that, now i made a backup ROM from the one i have is that good step and i already downloaded 2 different ROMs from the forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=552371 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540)
but how can i make the device rewritable is there a application i can download? and what's your opinion to upgrade to 6.1 or 6.5?

Tht's a good thing to backup your Original ROM, should be helpful in case of errors, bricking or re-servicing. (though i forgot to do mine )

There's is no problem about being not rewritable or sort! Once you CID unlock and upgrade your IPL/SPL, you can upgrade or degrade your device to any ROM you like whenever u like!
About opinions, there are alot of people here and would obviously have their own different opinions and so you will have too! I'd ask you to try out ROMs yourself and use the suitable one you choose. If you'd like to have a stable ROM, i'd advice you to use the 6.1 ROMs and if you'd like to have newer latest builds, you can go for the 6.5 ROMs (which have been optimized to their best stable by respective cooks). In the end, its up to you which you choose as your BEST ROM!
PS: Do read if the ROM is suitable for your device, in this case- Elfin and few FAQs posted out by the ROM cook. Respect others work and last but not least Read & Search before asking Questions!!

Thank you very much I finally upgraded my elfin to windows mobile 6.5 and it's awesome but i still have one more thing i want to make it read and write Arabic language without convert the whole interface is there a patch? I already searched about that and i found a file but it's not an application and I don't know how to use it. before that in my old 6.0 i downloaded an application when i install it, it solves the whole situation then i tried it with the 6.5 but the start menu won't open after i installed it so i formatted the ROM.

hi, first of all, the backup you have done is probably not ready to be flashed, so whatever you do, dont flash that again or u will brick your phone.
arabic? take a look at this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426281
and finally, i think it will be better if u update ur ipl to 3.10 too.

thanks crapula512 but what you mean with the backup not ready to be flashed? is there any other step ?

what he means is....you may brick the device with the backup you just created. so if you wana restore your original...which is the one you have backed up now...you should and can only flash that by making use of USPL or HSPL...search the forum for USPL and HSPL...and you will be given guides...

[Q] green pictures

Hi folks,
i upgraded my Niki from WM 6 to 6.1, after that the camera started to show green shadowed pictures, the pictures themselves are the same. Hope that this was a software problem, where somebody could help????
Thks

This issue is really annoying!!!!

Hi Motohans
Ok you'll upgraded from wm 6 to wm 6.1, can you give some more specific information, which wm 6.1 rom you are using now.
Greetz,

It says: v17/Superlight RUS
Radio: 1.71.09.01
Before that I had the original HTC ROM, everything was fine, then I gave the phone to a friend who is Russian, so we russified it...

I never heard of that rom, and I suggest to flash another radio, and check if this solves the problem, if not, the rom isn't ok and you have to flash another rom also.
You can find a good radio in the Insomnia thread from d_train, I'm not able to give you the link now (I'm on my mobile phone now) .
If you want another rom in another language just go to shipped-roms.com (just google it, I'm not sure about the name).
Goodluck buddy,

I guess you do not need additional programs to the camera, because the rom is already there
concerning reinstall the cube you should try it
