Changing Language from Italian to English

Hi,
I'm a newbie at HTC devices (and Pocket PC devices for that matter). I just bought myself a HTC P4350 (Herald)... which I really really like BTW... I bought it in Italy and it comes with the Italian OS. Since I'm an english speaker I'd really like to have an English OS. I cannot find a way to switch this so I get the impression that this is part of the ROM. Can anyone confirm this?
According to HTC support once it is set on the device it cannot be changed but from what I've been able to read on this site I should be able to just load up a new ROM and be able to go with this. Is this correct?
I currently have the following version:
ROM: 1.8.408.2 ITA
Date: 11/03/06
Radio: 02.71.90
Protocol: 4.1.13.31
ExtROM: 1.8.408.101
Now the ROMs I've found on this site seem to be a little bit 'older'. i.e. 1.8.405 .1 instead of 1.8.408.2 for instance. Should I worry about this?
I would like to have exactly the same functionality and software I have now but just in English.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Dear Mr Moderator

Rom 1.8.404.1.nld
Rom datum 11/3/06
model : hera100

I tried to upgrate my device with Mr POF's software. Unfortunately, it did not work properly. Everytime trying to update there's stopping in the 2% process with messages :

Im very disappointed with my device bcoz its mobile window OS is in Dutch. Hence, i really dont know how to use it effectively. That's reason I am seeking for a upgrade ROM image. Please help me !!!!!!!!!!!
It would be very greatful if you help me to switch Dutch language into English for my HTC P4350 . I will be very happy to pay you by return. I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks with my best regards

UK MDA Vario 2 latest roms etc?

Does anybody know the latest offical ROM etc for the T-Mobile Vario2?
Mine is off back to T-Mobile tommorow for checking out over battery life.
My current details are:
ROM Version: 1.21.110.3
ROM Date: 06/19/06
Radio Version: 1.05.05.00
Protocol Version: 32.36.7010.04H (Whatever that is!)
I would like them to update it whilst its away, but I wonder if there is a newer one I can officially have.
Cheers

Sorry to bump up; but can somebody with a new model check their ROM please? Or is there somewhere on this site that has a list of latest "approved" versions?
Cheers

Look at the wiki for shipped ROMS
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Looks like you're not far off the latest official versions

Thanks Sparky

Well, received back today.
Repair docket said replaced mainboard/unit exchanged plus software upgraded.
The phone is new as imei number is different.
But ROMS etc are all same version.

I am using this Rom
Rom Version 1.35.255.2
Rom Date 11/14/06
Rom Version 1.18.00.10
Protocol Version 32.55.7018.01H
ExtRom Version 1.35.255.102
I got this from the Wiki Site. Works real well i think!
I just wanna get the vista onto my MDA Vario II. If it runs faster thats all i want!!!

DOnt want to sound stupid...... but what would I get (over my standard T-Mobile image) if I upgraded to this or the even newer HTC one (2.05.255.1 - 01/17/07 ). Whats the AKU etc?

Please try to search for your answers! Use google or the forum's search function and you'll be helped. You'll find so much information, some are for beginners, some are for advanced users. And if you find yourself left with specific questions come back and ask them. Thanks.

Sorry chaty, but I did try searching and could not find the answer, this is why I asked!

Upgrading the rom of SPV m5000

Hey guys...
I recently got an Orange SPV m5000. Except for the way it looks, it's a great PDA considering i've been using my old Wallaby PW10A1 ...
But the problem is, it has some speed/memory issues! Whenever i open the Programs, or want to make a call, it seems to be stucked for a second or two. I've been wondering, if this is due to the ROM it has.
About the pda, when i got this, it had SIMLock and the default rom in it.
I've removed SIMLock; thanks to buzz, and upgraded the rom the the newest version from Orange website. But still, the problem is the same..
So, i was wondering, if i wanted this to upgrade to WM6, would it be slower?
If yes, would installing another WM5 ROM solve my problem?
If not, which ROM should i be using?
I'ld be pleased if someone spares time to explain me things. It's confusing, there're so many things that i get lost and forgot all i knew whilst checking the topics!
Currently the phone has:
Operator version: 7.130.1.174
ROM version: 1.30.90 WWE
ROM date: 02/24/06
Radio version: 0.00.00
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.30.174 WWE
(Notes: I live in Turkey, and my operator doesn't have video calling function running here, yet. So i can do without it too. I also did an extended rom unlocking and backed-up the orange installation files (1.85mb) from the storage just in case something bad happens and i have to install that again)

Update:
Since i was imnpatient; like anyone with a new device, I've currently installed L26_WM6_PRO_Business_V7_Videocall without problems. The radio version is updated at the process but there seems no problems with SIMLock, yay!
The OS seems better and faster for now, i'll update here just incase something goes wrong.

Update 2:
Unfortunately SmartDial is not implemented and the default phone skin (t-mobile) doesn't support landscape mode. It does support, but the dialpad is hidden by default, that confused my mind. But then again, smartdial still is absent from the dialpad section and the skin sucks and it's harder to call
It looks fantastic when compared to WM5, and some new settings along with auto-installed programs came. And i liked them!...
Now, looking for a proper smartdial...

CID locked or not?

Hi there,
this is my first time writting for this Forum, even if present for long.
Basically I have bought a 3 months used Trinity (P3600) in Portugal with GPS enabled since it was the latest devices to be sold.
According to the guy that sold me this, the pda was blocked because sold by Operator. The PDA is in PT language.
Basically when looking into the ROM I got the conclusion that the one installed is the same as the available from htc page (by IMEI):
RUU_Trinity_HTC_PTG_1.23.410.2_103_6275_1.38.00.11_108_Ship.zip (downloadable file from HTC).
My device:
ROM version: 1.23.410.2
ROM date: 03/13/07
Radio version: 1.38.00.11
Protocol version: 32.71.7020.12H
ExtROM: 1.23.410.103
To me it looks like the same. Therefore I didn't even tried to upload it to PDA.
Then another test I've done, was to try another SIM card then the one I had tried before, and I did get astonished by the fact that the pda was unblocked to any kind of operators.
I started to think that the pda was "touched" and that could mean Warranty off.
I cannot garantee that because the pda contains the rom which HTC makes downloadable through IMEI, meaning maybe the pda went out factory already unblocked. Is it possible?
Since my desire is to check warranty status, maybe you could help me checking if this system was even upgraded, or if CID (which I don't know what means but presume...) was touched or not. Because basically if the PDA was CID unlocked I have already lost warranty and I can upload an English ROM which is one of my interests. If not and by somehow the pda is unblocked to operators but everything is legal, then I'll keep PT ROM until warranty is age limited.
Hope you could help with this as I could still send back to the seller if I'm not satisfied with something. And once more, one of my needs is to have English ROM. And warranty if still possible
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.

Updating firmware?

Hello all, I've had my X1i for about a month now. I've noticed theres an updating application on the CD included with the X1 for my PC. Should I use this to update the firmware on the X1i? I remember reading some posts awhile back that updating it caused some X1s to brick. Is this problem still widely spread? Can I now use the update software safely?

new firmware soon!!!
hi there..
i talked with sonyericsson technical support today and according to them, sonyericsson will soon release a new firmware to x1..
problably in about two weeks. cant wait

If I downloaded..
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/support/softwaredownloads/detailed/updateservice/x1?lc=en&cc=gb
What would running it do to my phone?
Edit: I also have an unlocked phone...

The easiest way is to find the thread in the ROM section with the NEW firmwares. There are instructions on how to install them just using your Memory Card which is quick and efficient.

So I found the thread...one question though...how do I know which one to install?
From the version tab
Rom Version: 1.02.931.3
Rom Date: 8/29/08
Radio Version: 1.06.25.29
Customer info. tab
Software id: 1213-6450
software version: R1AA017
Customization id: 1215-1832

The answer to your question is posted all over the place, as well as the thread you found.
If you want to keep the Generic_UK rom (Not branded by any companies), you have to wait till it comes out.
Or even better, wait for the new firmware to get expertly cooked up in a lightning fast beast!

New FW already out?
Hi there,
I read some post under the ROM section about someone that tried the SE update service and already got the new FW.
I live in Sweden and have an unlocked X1i (Swedish). Used the update service. The program told me that I already got the latest FW, but I chose "install new FW anyway".
I had R1A before, but now I have R2AA.
Seems like the new FW is already out!

Yes the new firmware is out, R2A ROM version 1.03.936.6.
So have anyone tried it yet?
Would love to have some reports before proceeding.
