I bought today the device (XDA Mini S, a.k.a. HTC Wizard) from O2 Germany. But I couldn't change the language. The OS info shows that the OS distrubution is a German version.
I want so badly the "normal" English interface, this one is just awful (like every translation in fact, in my opinion).
What can I do? Can I flash the OS at home? Or does somebody know whether O2 would be so kind to flash it with an English version?
Thanks a lot in advance!
P.S. I've seen in a topic here a screenshot of a ROM Update Utility from I-Mate, so I guess I *can* update it in home conditions, but where can I download the utility and a latest version? And is it a problem that mine is from O2 named XDA Mini S and the utility and software are for K-JAM?

I have Dutch MDA Vario, so to my mind it would be nice to switch the OS language to WWE. One of the possibe ways to do so is to update firmware with WWE Rom.
But I think there is another one:
http://buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=61&Itemid=45
there you can download "Add-On language packs for WM2005" (*dll.0409.mui files).
Simply copy these files to \Windows directory and change the language related setting in registry and soft-restart the device.
At least it works on my phone.
P.S.: But I think some files are missing cause several subjects in menus are still in Dutch
French OS to English OS
Hi Alex,
I have an Orange French OS and would love to change it to English. Unfortunately on that link they dont seem to have the French files yet.
Regarding Flashing, could you point me to a thread which explains how to do it? I've looked at a few and someone mentioned that the default English OS is actually in my ROM already?
Many Thanks for any help you can offer.
Cheers,
Rob
Guys you can install a QTek or IMate rom.
Those are WWE (world wide English)
So did I!
This method does not require flashing!!!
Hi Ponja and Alex,
How can I install it without flashing? Also, as I use Orange and their GPRS network for net access, do you think I will still be able to connect with a differen version of WME?
Many Thanks,
Rob

Hello everyone!
I'm new to this site.
I just received my T-mobile MDA III from Germany.
I was wondering if anyone knows how I could convert its German ROM to an English ROM so I can start using it ASAP.
I'd appreciate any feedback,
J-
Converting ROM? Nonsense.
Simply download

and reflash Your brick
I've tried that software already.
It doesn't work. It gives me country error.
It says since the country of origin is Germany, I cannot do this ROM upgrade using that doftware.
Any other way that I can delete the original German ROM and install an English ROM?
Thx!

Hello!
I am new on this forum and also new at upgrading. My problem is: I would like to buy Trinity phone with german language and then I would like to upgrade it to english language. Phone won't be lock to any mobile operator.
Will I have problem with upgrade and whitch version of ROM should I use? For now I just want that I will have english version and it isn't necessary that GPS is activated. With GPS I will play later.
Bye,
Borut
Is it possible or not?
It is possible. In fact I had a german HTC Rom and updated to WWE (World Wide English) for GPS. Now using english Rom wasnt as easy as I thought because I got a non german keyboard and non german Transcriber and dictionaries ... etc
Thank you for your answer.
Could you write a procedure what exsactly you did?
I readed some posts about upgrading ROM. If I understood right I should use SSPL flashing tool for upgrading, am I right (because original language is german)?
Bye

Ok, thanks for the input
You have to wait, till MS realeases localized russion version. I think that due to a size of the market, it will be released in first wave of localizations.
But I am not sure, if it will be possible to change language of the existing phones. The rumor here in Czech republic is, that when the Czech version will be released, that it will only affect the new phones and that the old ones would not be eligible for language change. It looks, that it will have the same policy as a MS OS. If you buy PC with English Windows you are not allowed to install Czech or Russion Windows under that licence.
