Some questions from a "HTC newbie"... - Touch HD General

Hi everybody !!! I'm going to buy a Touch HD phone and, as you know, here in Italy only the TIM branded version is available.I would like to ask you some questions to avoid any surprises. If I flash my device with an english coocked ROM (in order to remove all TIM brand) windows mobile operating system will still remain in Italian or not ? I mean the flashing operation will have effect on operating system language or not ?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Best regards.

Yes they will have an impact on the language used. When searching for ROMS, make sure you find out which language they're for. Read up plenty before you flash your first rom. You can start here:

P.S: Pl post in the relevant section. Your question has nothing to do with ROM developement.

HTC ELF0100 in French, would like to switch to English

Hey all,
I'm a newbie to cell phone mods, the question has probably been asked before, I searched for a couple of days but cannot find how to switch OS (WM6 pro) to English.
The phone works with Canadian sim card, just have a hardtime with French version.
Could anyone point me in the right direction?
Do I need to install a new OS?
Read something somewhere about modifying Rom, but not excatly sure how to do that.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am located in Canada, HTC touch Elf comes from France.
Thx!
P.S
I have MSN & Skype, if that would be easier

Had a French ROM when I bought my ELF, flashed to Blue Elves 5.0 without any problems, then went on to try other ROMs, just make sure you got the proper flashing procedure sorted - all in the WiKi.

I think the OP already stated they have a hard time with French.
Everything you need in terms of resources, ROMs, software etc can be found right here, on this site. All you need to do is do some reading.

dear can u help me to update my elfo100 to english rom when i update elfo100 then give error that invalid vendor id plz give me some useful and simple trick to do that image version is 2.27.164.2
gsmexpert1:
Please read the stickies in the rom section, or the elf wiki. These have your answer.
You'll want to CID unlock, dump your current rom etc, and flash a WWE rom (onyx etc.) Make sure you run DSIXDAs device_Info.bat so you know what you are dealing with easier, and also to make sure if it is genuine HTC.

English ROM to HTC VIVA

Hi my friends, My neme is Leonardo, I have a HTC viva with WM 6.1, and works fine. I'd like to upgrade the rom to english in the same version or to 6.5 english, but I've reading the forum for hours, but I got doubt because the version changes each forum I read.
My questions are:
Sould I keep the version 6.1, but just update that to English? I have an Portuguese on it. If do, where I can find the last version of it?
If you think is better change to 6.5, please link me the last version of it.
Witch risks I have to upgrade my cellphone?
On more question, Do you have an step by step to upgrade the version, and how to backup my current SO in a PENDRIVE or other divice, in order to get the original configurations back if I sell it?
Sorry for disturb yourselves, but I prefer ask before do any thing that can brake my phone forever.
Thank you very much all.
Kind rigards.

hello leonardo....welcome to this great forum.
before you can upgrade your WM6.1 to 6.5 and above, you need to HardSPL your phone in which case you lose your warranty but there is a way to overcome that. The stock SPL 1.35.xx.x is available for download. I can upload it if you require it in the future. If you restore the original SPL along with the stock ROM (which is readily available) you can always fall back to your original phone state. The guide to flashing is here

if you want to experiment and try out WM6.5, go ahead but bear in mind that the CHEFS (those experts who 'cook' custom ROMS) are yet to come up with a bugfree WM6.5 ROM.
and lastly, please don't just start a new topic for just one questions. seach in relevant forum/sub-forums/threads. I promise you that they will answer your questions and give you confidence in how to go about doing things with your WinMo.
neway...goodluck to you. and remember that the experts (not me!!!) will be always ready to answer your questions.

NooB help about htc touch 3g

Hi ppl
I am new member of this forum and i hope to learn more about this theme.
I have some questions about my htc touch 3g.
Is it possible to install WM 6.5 on the HTC Touch 3G?
How can I do?
Is there any toturial for noobs like me?
The mobile phone operating system by what is understood by a rom? Is that it?
After the installer is possible to change to Portuguese?
Sorry it both ways.
The fact that a big NOOB.
And my English.
Cumps for all users
yes its possible. first thing you need to do is install hardspl, this CID unlocks your device and will allow you to flash any rom.. Search it here as its VERY important you know what it does and how to install it.
next you can find a winmo 6.5 cooked rom from here, and maybe one with Portuguese language, Again , search for it. i would do it for you , but its close to my bedtime

[Q] Any WP7 ROM for HD2 with FRENCH language ?

Title copy : Any WP7 ROM for HD2 with FRENCH language ?
A more recent build is prefered (I saw 7592)
Thanks!
There are quite a few WP7 NoDo ROMs with French language.
Just read a bit yourself, you´ll find them.
If "Green Mango" ROMs are already there in French, you´ll have to find out, too.
Forums are usually like a "do it yourself", but if you have severe problems with your device, people will be happy to help. But please don´t ask questions which demand only little effort from yourself to get the answer.
Thanks!
Actually I already searched myself but I didn't find the build 7592 in french, that's why I asked.

[Q] orange debrand

hi all newbie here i need to debrand my htc touch hd from orange any ideas which is the best way to go?
thanks in advance
moved, this is not development, it is a question.
the best way to get from a software branded version to a stock htc version, is to flash either an unbranded stock rom or a customized cooked rom from the forum here.
stock roms can be found on shipped-roms.com and necessary tools and instructions on how to flash a rom, including first unlocking the device can be found on the blackstone winmo development forum (where you first posted this question).
if you have never flashed a windows mobile device before, it might take a lot of reading to get prepared, but it is worth it. also, if you decide to go through with it, any possible questions you might have, please post them here before attempting to flash, because it is always easier to clarify things in before, than restoring an (almost) broken device afterwards.
