Language change... - Touch Diamond2, Pure General

Hi, I'm a new user. Just bought my phone but in Germnay and it's XDA from O2 operator. It has only german language! The dude from the shop said that I can change the language only with a software change. Where can I find an english version? How to install it?
ROM - 1.40.207.2 (49069) GER
ROM date - 04/28/09
Please help

Normally, the interface of Manila can be changed. Check out this thread:

If you want to change only the language of Manila, thats the solution.
If you need your whole phone in english, then you should
1) Flash HardSPL (special software that allows you to put any language and any version of Windows Mobile on your phone)
2a) Check at WIKI Shipped ROMs for an english version that matches your region.
or
2b) Select from one of the Cooked ROMs with more speed, more stability.

I'm not sure but in czech release of topaz you can change language version. After hard reset there is menu for selecting english version or for installing localization. Topaz install czech environs by first use after hard reset from two cab files.

Hi again. I don't understand anything of that what you said. This is my first phone with WM. Please someone explain what I should do step by step.
I have installed the Total commander CE on the device but I can't find the directory HKEY....

Ok, so you need your phone complete changed from German language to English language.
First step:
You need to enable your phone to accept WM with a different language. Follow the instructions of this post.
Second step:
As you are complete new to WM and this type of phone, I propose that you change to an official HTC WM in English. The most actual official WM for the Diamond2 is Version 1.39.405.3.
You just start the exe file and it will upgrade your phone to an English version.
But this upgrade will only work if you successfully installed the HardSPL from step 1.

I use PHM registry editor. Just open it and in string HKEY_CURRENT_USER\MUI\CurLang is hexadecimal key with value for german 0407, so change it to 0409 for english (US english). It will change TF3D language only.
After hard reset at first turning on there you should have options for english or installing german localization. If you have got original german ROM ( without local cabs) there is one way only. You have to flash new ROM with WWE.

OK. Well I do it but on step 7 it came a fatal error message : "please make sure the device is properly synced; Please retry after syncing the device (via Activesync or Windows mobile Device center)" and there is only "OK" as an option to proceed. But the phone is connected in WM device center.

Which one did you download and try?
Topaz-HardSPL_V3_01R2.zip
Topaz-HardSPL_V3_01R2__NC.zip
SSPL-Manual-TopazV3_05.zip
Option 1 and 2 run from your PC
Option 3 you have to copy the SSPL-Manual-TopazV3_05.exe to your phone and start it there.
I do not know Windows Vista, (or Window 7, not sure what you use). One of the 3 options should work.

Well I use Vista Ultimate. I tried option 1 and 2 but the result was the same - a fatal error message.
Step 3 - when I start it on the phone, the phone freezes and nothing happens.

hello everyone, nice to meet all of you
I have one minor problem: just upgraded to the official ROM 1.39.479.2 (49068) WWE and "lost" the Romanian language. is there any possibility to choose the language ? (now it is in English)
apparently I have made a mistake by ugrading the ROM: saw no difference, only lost the Romanian interface

Check the WIKI page. There is a ROM for Eastern Europe. Its listed under WWE ROM's, but has the same number: RUU_Topaz_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.39.479.2_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.20t.25.10_3.43.25.19_Ship.exe

Forget my last message, it was too late yesterday. of course you do not want to flash the same english ROM again.
Try to find someone with a Topaz which is still in Romanian language. Dump the ROM, (I can support) and rebuild the ROM for reflashing (I can support).

Maybe you know someone else with a Topaz in Romanian language.

how to change the languages?

Hello,
sorry, I doesn`t find anything for my question with the search function.
My question is, how could I change the languages?
My problem is, that I get a HTC P4350 with french language, it is no provider locked. But I couldn´t flash the WM6 in german, only in french.
Ok, the keyboard is in french design (AZERTY), but I think, it must be possible to change the system languages, or?
Regards,
Thorsten
don't think wm6 will allow you to change language. to flash other firmware, you will have to unlock the sim+cid. your phone might still be locked?
HI,
the phone doesn´t have a simlock, if the phone has the cid lock - I doesn´t know.
If you would flash the german rom file, I get the error message 294.
Thorsten
Has anyone found a solution for this?
I have upgraded to WM6 Russina which was available from the HTC site.
I would like an English or Greek version of Windows Mobile 6.
How can I do this?

Only WWE rom's have english language. And with changing mui files you can't do anything, only loosing time. Wait for HardSPL and flashing WWE rom's will be the easiest thing you've ever done.

Acer F1 (NeoTouch S200) Change language

Hello,
I have this phone but have a problem- how to set English display language. I read in this forum - i must find a English rom... or... i am not shure. Can u help me?
/sorry for my english/
Thanks a lot
you can not change the language in windows mobile, you have to use an English ROM.
unfortunately, Acer has not yet released ROM updates, nor are there custom ROMs available yet. But check back the forum regularly, there is one in the making.
oh...
Just wait... right?
Can i install only English language? or... just update something?!?
you need to flash a different ROM, if you want a different language, period.
a device can only contain a single language a time, so you need to install a different Windows Mobile (in form of a ROM image). Why haven't you bought an English device to begin with?
I bought it from ebay. There is no information to display language.
Just one last question- can i install ROM from other model phone?
no.
you need one specific for the neoTouch S200.
Did you try to change regional settings (start, settings, system, regional settings). I always had an english device but this maybe will help you so you can read english.
What language do you have?
While waiting for an english rom, you may install/try SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 which works fine on S200 and choose enlish as your language. This will help you alot. At least you will use your mobile decent.
Freco, thanks !!!!
I will check SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 ... and will wait for rom.
You are the man!!! thank you again!!!
You can change language... but its a little bit tricky...
You need mui files for language you want eg 0415 are for polish language then change some registry entries...I've made polish language for TG01 and the only problem are settings from Toshiba(they don't use mui files ;/)

Hi All!
2 days ago i bought S200 and now i have the same problem
It`s french WM and it's .....aaaah no comment :/
I need english language (or polish)
I will try install SPB maybe it helps me for a few days...
But if someone will find english WM for s200 please share somewhere...
Now, I have s200_1.002c.00_fr
maybe some one can find s200_1.002c.00_en somewhere...
First You must know how to hard reset Your phone with button combination (messing with registry entries can lead to the hangups or make your system unbotable) second so far i know changing language on french/german TG01 to the English made system unbotable(that was Toshiba Keyboard SIP problem) and didn't translate much of the system... i didn't seen anywhere english mui files so easier would be to translate language to Your native using mui files from rom with close build number with one installed on Your phone
Hi everyone!
First of, as first time poster I'd like to say thankx to everyone who maintains this site and everyone who contributes with everything, from they're kitchen's best meals to any crazy ideas, I've been taking advantage of that for last month or so
But for this one I've found no answer, so here goes:
Yesterday I bought an Acer S200 F1 neoTouch yada yada yada...
I live in Portugal, so it comes with portuguese version of WM 6,5 which is horribly translated, making me, therefore, prefer the english version. I've never actually seen one of these with english version for sale here.
So I went around fishing for a way to change the language, I downloaded the official english version rom update from Acer's website, extracted it, replaced the ACER_EUU.exe with the cracked one, and it flashed smoothly.
However, EVERY SINGLE TIME I turn on the phone it hangs up, sometimes on the WM logo, sometimes during network search (shortly after WM is loaded I guess). Then it reboots all by itself, and then it works sort of ok.
I think I've described the process quite extensively, obviously, either I'm doing something wrong, or this method is not even supposed to work.
So I flashed the portuguese version back to the phone using the exact same method as described above, only not with english rom of course, and it is back to working as it should... in awful badly translated and cropped portuguese.
Should anyone know a way to get around the hang-ups I get with the english version, I'd be so grateful!
Cheers!
Why don't you try one of the Rafyvitto's roms. They are english and good looking.
Indeed. I'm using v2.7-vanilla, no crashes to date.
But I'm kind of obsessive, and rafyvitto's roms althought working much like they should, they have stuff built in which I think have no business being there. In this vanilla 2.7, as an example, title bar makes no sense as WM already has it's own way of doing the same (I think) I'm a noob to WM, so this might be a complete nonsense. Then there are bugs, such as the keyboard not showing/hiding properly during a call (I have to tap the button as if double clicking, and the button's description displays a wrong message ("hide" when it's hidden, "show" when it's being shown already) and sd-card encryption can't be turned off.....
Small things which make my day a little worst
Still, I appreciate rafyvitto's work, as the possibility of choice he provides us with is priceless =)
EDIT: as of the release of the new official rom's from acer (EUU_Acer_S200_3.003b.00_EN_03.03.08_3.003.01_20100119.zip) I am able to change the language from portuguese to english without the hangups I mentioned earlier!

are there mui files for every part of the os? like settings, programs, clock, messaging etc?
would it be possible to take the mui files from a german rom rename them from mui.0407 to 0409 install a new english rom and replace the mui files with the german renamed ones?
of course with a programm that allow replacing rom files like resco explorer or total commander?
if so maybe i even could get some german htc manila mui files from originial htc leo rom and rename and replace the ones of the acer s200 leo roms to have a part german rom ?

Multilingual - DE - IT - FR Swiss Email Problem

Dear All,
I've bought the HTC HD Mini few days ago and can't get email reply/new messages working on a fresh Multilingual Swiss French install. Once I click reply/new message nothing happens...
Tried several times hard reset but still nothing. I have tried to install the Swiss German version a it work like a charm.
I'm very new to WM and HTC products and I'm very frustrated not being able to write and reply to my mails.
Please could someone help me to get this working.
Best Regards,
Roma
NB: I get a folder "Mail-Anlagen" which seems to be wrong
In fact, I cannot realy help you, because I have exacly the same issue.
I opened a tread by HTC, but without any success.
In fact, they respond to me that I have to phone directly to the EU support.
The probem is that I broke my phone and I am waiting its return.
Hi all,
Do some one has a French mini ?
Could some one give us the FRENCH name of the "mail-anlagen" folder on SD card ?
I suppose that renaming this folder in FRENCH it will work, but still yet no one gave me this name.
HELP required !
Hi. I have the same problem with a HD mini multilingual GER FRE ITA.
I could perform some tests, the problem appears only when you install it in Italian or French. Installing it in German it works fine.
I opened a ticket by HTC, they answered that they are aware of the problem and they are already working for a solution. I hope there will be a patch downloadable from the support site ASAP.
Many thanks for your feed back.
In fact, I suppose the french and italian version to create a wrong folder "mail-Anlage" on SD card. Perhaps if some one could be able to give me the right folder name in French, I could try to work aroud this issue.
I looked for the name in my old Windows Mobile 5.0 device and I tried to rename that folder, but no luck.
Perhaps it has been changed in Win Mobile 6.5...
I'll wait for an official answer by HTC.
I have the same problem with Persian Language!
Damned !
Hoping it resolves this issue I tryed to update the ROM to the last official one 1.36...
I used my S/N in order to download the right version.
After I installed the new ROM... I discover that only GERMAN was aviable no more french or italian version !
I asked help to HTC... no answer !
I took the decision to flash the French orginal ROM... It was not simple but actually I am very happy and the mail works perfectly.

AFAIK you have to flash a new ROM for this.
@montpoisy
No, normally, with the original multilingual version 1.07.xxx you have only to hard reset the phone. At startup, it will ask for the language. But this version has a bug with email, if you don't use it ok, elsewhere you will have to install the new 1.36 ROM.
If you download the new version from HTC with your serial #, you will receive a german version only. After that you have to contact the HTC support, they will provide an add on for multilanguage, and all works ok.
Another option is to install the original french version 1.36.xxx as explained somewhere in this forum.
hope it helps

Thanks for information, never heard that before.
Thank you Moscard,
The hard reset did not regulate the probleme.
I'll try to replace my ROM by the last ROM french but i want be sure. Is Tom Photon V1.2 Buid 24622 the good version to flash my ROM
Ok, you probably have an original German version. If you had a multingual version is writen on the case with a red label (FRANCAIS / ITALIANO / DEUTSCH). It seems this version is only provided in Switzerland. If you realy own an original mutiligual version the hard reset reinstall all the soft, operators and ask for language at the first startup only.
Remark : For hard reset, after turing off the phone (power for a while) you have to push Volume + and Volume - buttons in the same time at statup (power).
You have two options
1) Official with maintaining the warranty
- Download and install officilal ROM from HTC with serial #. You will receive a German version 1.36.xxx. Don't panic it is all under control
- Ask to HTC suport the addon for multiligual, or download it here :
http://htc-touch-diamond.forumactif...ible-d-envoyer-un-e-mail-t19587-30.htm#260771
On this forum, you will find a lot of information about your issue as well
2) Install the original French ROM
See some explanation here:
http://htc-touch-diamond.forumactif...ible-d-envoyer-un-e-mail-t19587-15.htm#258164
EDIT
You will find ROM here : http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Photon/
You normally need FRA 1.36.xxx
