Tried 3 WM6.1 roms... with Paragon LENg. edited the registry files as best as i could... LENg ruins the WM6.1 Polaris roms in a jiffy. sometimes it won't load after LENg installation.. sometimes it will kill the dialer..
so i moved back to the orignal shipped rom.
this is unfortunate because the original rom takes much more memory than the new WM6.1 roms.. which are great. (Touch-IT, uDK, Swtos v0.3 full)..
I'm using PDAC on my WM6.1 Cruise with no problem at all. also tried Eyron with no problems. but I know they cost a lot more than Paragon
pdac is great... but it's a waste of my money.

Try to change the len after the installation to English.
I am using PDAC - I had a huge problem with Peragon - no connectivities and no calls recived...
You can find the license for 180 NIS.
Sorry to hijack the thread, but all those who claim PDAC works well, what do you do to stop it from slowing the device down ? It slows the redraw on programs like haali reader, total commander, and many many others to the extent i prefer to drop the Hebrew support in favor of faster redraw.
Paragon LENg is out of the question simply because it right aligns everything, everywhere, no matter Hebrew or English, this is completely unacceptable.
About Eyron - i couldn't even get it's trial to run, the Hebrew would stay reversed no matter what i do.
So, for now, no acceptable Hebrew solution for me.
PS: Tried the PDAC version from it's official CD (i've got it with the unit) and the latest version from their site, both pirated version and the legal trial of LENg and the latest trial of Eyron.
I use the PDAC, installed by them on-location. this is the least annoying, but still has problems with links (eg if I get a link by mail, have to align the screen to Left in order to make it clickable), websites text alignments and overall visuallity.
Got tough response by their service woman, when complain about that.
btw, how you go about placing the flag in the thread-response? couldn'[t find it in the profile page.

Hello to everybody. First post from me in this great community.
First, I'm gonna start by telling you my initial problem. I've always been buying some second hand HTCs from ebay. I've already owned an XDA II, XDA IIi, Qtek S200 and recently a Qtek P3300, with various brand names. My problem was always, to have a greek keyboard that could handle 160 characters in SMSs and a greek contact manager that I could search easily scrolling the greek letters. Until now, I somehow was able to find a cracked or cooked greek ROM and use it without any problem. Until I bought the P3300. Most of you out there should know by now that there is an official A_C_E Hellas greek translation extROM which, if you load it in your "non Greek" P3300, it will lock it down. I've been trying to crack the protection which finally understood who it works (with the great help of andrew_sh, thanks a lot man, I changed my username if you still wonder who I am), but for some reason which I don't know, it doesn't work for the P3300. So, I finally gave up trying, for the only reason that I DIDN'T want to translate the ROM (English is more than good for me), just the 2 things I mentioned in the opening. So, I focused in these 2 and here comes the result.
There are 2 different cabs. The first is the original A_C_E Hellas greek keyboard, with registry tweaks that provides 160 greek characters support for SMSs, both for Windows mobile 5 and 6. It's been tested in 2 different HTC models and works like a charm. It SHOULD work for any Mobile 5 and 6 OFFICIAL ROM. The second cab, just translates the phone part to Greek, with the ease to scroll down Greek letters while searching for a contact. This too has been tested on 2 different OFFICIAL HTC ROMS and it does work. It should NOT work on cooked ROMS, so try it in your own responsibility. I know some alternatives have been posted by minotavr, by using resco keyboard pro with greek characters file and PocketCm Contact Manager, but it didn't satisfy me in any way.
So, I'm posting the cabs and I'm waiting for your tests and results. I'm emphasizing that they should be used with OFFICIAL WWE ROMS and with Regional settings set to Greek. I would prefer if we keep this tread in English, just for respect for this great community.

Appreciate your work man, i was looking for something like that for quite a while! I'll try it and I'll give some feedback, as soon as my phone unfreezes after the deistallation of "Sam Greek Leng.cab" file...
I'm waiting for anyone's feedback. I'm really curious in which HTC models will work.
Thanx in advance.
It works like a charm on HTC P3300.
But it surely needs updating. I use resco keyboard because it has large buttons, so i can easily and fast,write my text message.
Greece forever
Thank you synzeus for the feedback. I too tried the resco keyboard, but with the normal keyboard layout and thought it had a few bugs, so I didn't like it. Also I tried resco and other commercial and free keyboards with different layouts, but I guess I got used with the normal layout and feel, of the original one, so I was not satisfied with any of them. I know a lot of people that are satisfied with alternative keyboards, so this keyboard cab is intented for those who want a greek one, similar to the english one. But thank you anyway for the try. I'm waiting for feedback from anyone about the greek contact manager, especially in official WWE ROMs of other HTC products. Already tested with success in a Hermes.
Yeah.I forgot to say that the contact manager works too.
Keep up the good work.
Hey man nice job...
Working fine on my HTC Hermes too.
Keep up the good work and make this play with cooked roms too....
Problem in Qtek S200
After installing MarkoDiMarko_Gr_CM.cab on an HTC S200, device hungs up while booting. OS is WM6.1 Prophet Touch.
Any sugestions?
Sorry friend, I have already mentioned that it should work only in official WWE ROMs. There are dozens of cooked ROMs for various models out there and everyone integrates in them whatever application they want, including third party contact managers. So, replacing a cooked ROM's contact manager wouldn't be the easiest thing to do and unfortunately I don't have the time to try. The way for me right now is sticking to official ROMs, I'm done with cooked ones (and their bugs).
Oh, and one more thing. Now that you mentioned S200, I have to point out that after badly damaging my Artemis, I turned again to my old but extremely trustworthy S200 which works with the patched Greek ROM provided by andrew_sh, which works like a charm. So if you don't mind using mobile 5.0, this is another way to go.
Take care.
OK, it's ok with me, but how could I uninstall this keyboard or install another rom? As I mentioned in my first post, device does not boot so it cannot be connect to ActiveSync.
Your help would be most appreciated.
PM sent.
Good luck.
Dear Friend,
I want to tell you that I just upgrade my phone (Htc P3650 -Touch Cruise - Polaris 100) with the latest official wm 6.1 rom (HTC Touch Cruise-RUU_Polaris_HTC_WWE_3.13.405.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship) and I install your MarkoDiMarko_Gr_CM.cab
The phone doesn’t work and I take the message "A problem has occurred with cprog.exe"
The contacts menu does not open and I can't make any call.
Thank ’s
At past exactly 14-01-2006, I had try hard, to Localized contacts alphabetical index without any result.
I encourage you to continue to try for that result.
This is the most usefull thing for Greeks.
Hello g_dinos.
Sorry for the bad experience with your attempt. But the truth is that the 2 cabs are provided "as is" with no guarantee. You just try it and if it works, we are all happy. We had previous successful attempts into some other models, but I guess you were not so lucky. I'm assuming you have set the regional settings to Greek, right?
Anyway, what I can do for you is this. If there is an official A_C_E Hellas greek update for this specific ROM and you have it, you can send it to me and try to extract/compile the greek CM cab for you.
Take care.
Greek Contact Manager for every official HTC model!
Well, after a while, it's now tested ant it works.
Greek Contact Manager for every official HTC model!
After g_dinos bad experience with my file, he sent me the touch cruise greek update and I built a new cab for his HTC. But before I managed to sent it, he already built his own, based on my cab and tested it with success. By the way, mine works too
Anyway, g_dinos prooved that a greek contact manager cab can be made easily for various HTC models. So, he should have the honour to post the file and instructions (if he wants). Thanx again friend.
Keep up the good work greek guys out there Have fun translating.
MarkoDiMarko your answers was so instant and you was so helpfully !!!
I confirm that your two cabs works fine at my phone (Htc P3650 -Touch Cruise - Polaris 100) with the original rom (HTC Touch Cruise-RUU_Polaris_HTC_WWE_3.13.405.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship).
I want to give you a big thank you for your help!
No more need to buy phones from ACE-Hellas only for Greek Localized contacts alphabetical index !!!
Greek Contact Manager for Polaris
To get things a little straight.
MarkoDiMarko_Gr_Keyboard.cab should work on official WM 5.0, 6.0 (edit: NOT 6.1)
MarkoDiMarko_Gr_CM.cab should work on official WM 6.0 .
MarkoDiMarko_Gr_CM-WM6.1 should work on official WM 6.1 .
The last one was tested by g_dinos today on Polaris. (thanx again)
Have fun.
HTC touch cruise (Polaris)... OK
GREAT JOB my friend GREAT JOB.
Now i have to LEARN GREEK TOO...HA HA HA
Gr_Keyboard for wm6.1???
If someone could help, a_c_e has released 6.1 version for polaris... someone could extract the keyboard?
Is there anything for M-Amine 2.0 ?
I have put this cooked rom in my Ace-Hellas Touch Cruise and all that is missing is a greek keyboard and a Greel contact manager.
Thanks in advance.
XAPHS
used with ROM "Artemis Touch 4.02 Full with 4 sided cube"
As mentioned by MarcoDiMarco, it does NOT work with cooked roms, that is why I am stucked with my brick now! It freezes while bootloading and cannot even bring it to activesync to flash a new rom.
As with the previous user (s_panos), any help will do.
best regards
P.S. Should have been more carefully, me malakas!
However, it worked fine with "HTC_P3300_WWE_3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R"
The latest core is 20273 and 20270. However, 19591 is more fast as I test on G-Smart i350.
After all, I decide to make a new build of i350 with 19591, for compatibility and stability.
In this build, I use a new dialpad with larger button. I think it more beautiful than the official dialpad. Some pictures and theme from my friend Feng. Thanks to him.
if you don't like the dialpad, just change the registry from:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
"enabled"=dword:1
"ext"="mydialpad.dll"
to:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
"enabled"=dword:1
"ext"="custphone.dll"
It has been uploaded to rapidshare, for more people can share this rom.

Thank you vary much for i350 rom
Thank you acwan, I use your ROMs and they are always reliable.
One question, did you use complete Diamond dialer, or is this just buttons like diamond dialer?

If using complete Diamond dialer, 6-8M Memery will be lost!
You know what does 6-8M memery mean for i350.
So, this dialer is modify from the official 350 dialer.
It doesn't cost more memery than the offcial one.
I installed this ROM and it is good. Especially voice quality over bluetooth is better than your 19212 ROM
I agree with you about Diamond Dialer memory consumption. This was the reason that I ask this question. Because with Diamond dialer, our i350 is useless, no memory after couple of phone calls.
But, after 1-2 soft reset, I lost this custom Dialer buttons, and letters remained in the place with original buttons. Than I changed the registry to go back original dialer buttons.
can i put that rom in a gsmart italian version ?
its possible to make a backup before the flash ?
thanks
I think the hardware is the same so it's possible to upgrade.
You can download the firmware from gsmart club in gigabyte site.
If you want the original italian version firmware you have to made an account in the italian site. If you want the english version you have to made an account in the usa site (you can made multiple account using the same imei)
Just a question, I have to copy on the memory card the CUSTFILE folder to made the ugrade or not?
Thank you.
Unable to find GPS
Hi, I've just updated the firmware of my i350 with your WM6.1 build 19591.
My compliments, it is fantastic but I am not able to find the GPS support. Please, could you spend some words about this point?

i350 and standby of death
Hi all,
My Gsmart i350 is affected by the so called "standby of death" problem. That is, when the battery charge is below 70% and the phone is in standby, the receiving of either a phone call or a SMS causes the blocking of the phone. The only way to turn it on again is soft reset or, sometimes, removing and insert the battery.
I've just known that this problem has been fixed in the latest Russian and Chinese roms, but there're no official updates for other countries. For some of you interested in this issue, there is an unofficial English WM6.1 rom. See:
http://mybestpda.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=75
Regards,
Maurizio
i had bought my i350 in russia, so eventually it had a russian wm6. i switched to english with i350-V5.00.D8-ENG
since then i have this very same problem which mpalesi has described. i thought it could have been a firmware problem or a battery, cos besides the lockout problem, after like the battery power once gets to 70%, the next thing i remember the pda always shuts it down. i had never seen a value being displayed between 50%-10%. just shuts itself down.
today i installed acwan's rom, the pda worked slower for me. so i tried this other link which mpalesi has given (the rom by korand, built on the latest russian version, i think so some features are in russian). it works fast, but yet i havent had time to see if the main problem, pda locks when receiving a call with 70% battery power is gone. so far its been a few hours and the battery seems to be working better than before.
thanks everyone, especially to mpalesi for bringing up the very same problem i had.

No Problem
Russian keybord
I also need russian keyboard.
I tried a lot of external keyboards, but I don't really like them.
I have got [Dutty's WM6.5 R7 M2.5 Thriller] and there a new Manila 2.5 present.
Does anybody have .cab with new Manila russian keyboard?
P.S. I have been looking through the forum, but haven't find any.
Thanks.
still seeking for an original keyboard for blackstone...
Had anyone found a genuine russian HTC full qwerty keyboard? can you share a cab?
Also used to have EZinput 2.1 on my Diamond with a nice EN/RU switch on a button... i miss that keyboard very much..
I am using the latest ENERGY rom on my blackstone. Tried all sorts of keyboards including FKB - didn't like it.. I am now surviving with a ru-en swype...
Hello everyone.
Recently i updated my HTC Touch Diamond to WM 6.5. Everything installed just the way it supposed to have. But i got 2 issues which makes me wanna come back to my old rom.
Previously i got old 1.93.479.3 stock rom but i needed to install it because i bough my phone from guy in sweden (im from poland) and needed rom in my native language.
To update i used Windows Revolution Manila 2.1 Edition 1.1A (23017) by mike1986 which had both windows mobile 6.5 and TF3d 2.1. And generally i love my new rom. Exception is 2 things:
1. What i cannot digest is the dialer. I just dont like. It is tachi's dialer with black skin on it. I would like to go back to my stock Diamond dialer (if it possible with the slider).
Dont get me wrong. Im not the type of guy who writes complain and wait for ready answer. I tried to make it on my own for 2 days now. I managed to change tachi's skin to white and it looked much better but to look great i need old white one. I found 3 cabs with that but none of that actually made things better (installed all: Diamond_PhoneCanvas_full_Eng_without_battery_icon.cab , xmatrix_PhoneDialerBlackS2A.cab. and Diamond_PhoneCanvas_Slide.cab - dont remember from where on xda i get it - sorry).
When i install any of them, tachi is gone but instead getting my stock diamond dialer i get wm dialer but without any skin - jsut black and white. When i choose to not use HTC dialer i get wm dialer again but with skin on it.
Dunno what im doing wrong but it is possibility that this is it - im a lumberjack not a telephone soft expert.
2. Dont know why, dont know how but in my new soft keyboard choosing is limited to only 1 position. I cant change keyboard layout in fly. Instead i need to run some .cab to which shortcut i have in settings area. Can i do something about it? I found already intelwrite for my new windows mobile but sometimes i need to change layout to phone because it is hard holding something (driving wheel or something else).
I wont bother u any more and im just counting that u will find a little time to help me. Thanks in advance.
