Dear All
I have a Chinese-language based Athena Dopod U1000 from Hong Kong.
After several days I still cannot upgrade to the WWE Rom which I have downloaded. I receive ERROR [260]: CONNECTION
The update Utility cannot connect to PDA Phone.
Sometimes I get another ERROR message saying that this Phone is not suitable for upgrading, since languages are not compatible...
I have tried to work around with LokWiz and another CID unlocker, with no results.
Please help

Dear Faisal
I have tried the english cab. It works. But it is not ok, since some menus remain in Chinese. The keyboard is still Chinese based. Some Microsoft apps are in Chinese, etc.
Sure, better than nothing, but my goal is to install the WWE ROM which I have downloaded from singapore dopod website.
Can you help?
Thanks

well, there are more thing you can do, such as changing the region to english, and use Resco Keyboard to set english as your default input.
At the moment, i think you can't flash the singapore ROM, you will run into the boot loader problem that many member have
Is this ship-rom the singapore one?
ruu_athena_dopodasia_wwe_1.24.707.3_105_6275_1.32.00.10_108_ship.exe
I have tried to install but I failed with the usual error country mismatch. I haven't reach the bootloader issue yet.

I have decompiled this ROM and had a look, the files are older than the ones on the Dopod, so I have not bothered doing any more work on this.
dear Faisal
Can you be so kind to tell me a link where I can find a recent WWE ROM for Athena and few words of instructions on how to upgrade from Chinese to WWE?
Thanks a lot

You will not be able to use the WWE ROM from Singapore as it has been region locked, However watch this space ....
Dear Faisal
Do you mean this web page?
Or do you mean wait until WM 06 rolls out and possibly it won't be region locked?
Anyway, where on internet can I download windows mobile 6?
Thanks

you can't download wm6 for Athena yet, it's not available. And when official WM6 comes out in Summer, it will be region lock as well. What you should do is watch this forum because someone might comes up with a tool which will bypass the region check.
from CHT to WWE
Me too, i bought a second hand unit, it is TWN CHT and I have also got the Singapore bonus pack and able to log in both TWN and SIN Dopod website to get the ROM, but since it is not unlock yet, I do not dare to try to flash

A new test ROM for the HTC Oxygen is available on XDA-Developers!
Rom Version: 1.5.401.2 (WWE)
Radio Version: 4.1.13.28_02.67.90
Bootloader: 1.05.0000
CID: HTC__Z12
You can find the ROM on XDA-Developers FTP:
RUU_Oxygen_1.5.401.2_R3_4.1.13.28_02.67.90_HTC_EUR_Test.exe
For the curious out there, the ROM is shipped in NBH format so you can extract it if you want to look at the ROM components.
I don't own an Oxygen and I can't test it so I don't know what's on this ROM, if you try it please post details about it.
Enjoy!
Can anyone help i have just got a HTC S310 (Orange SPV C100) from orange france and am desperately seeking an english language rom. found one rombut get the incorrect vendor error. Seems like a great phone but i cant read french.
Your phone is CID locked. AFAIK there is no free method to CID unlock it.
...unless you will downgrade your phone's bootloader with bootloader only upgrade for HTC Oxygen that is available from local ftp first.
that bootloader should let you flash any rom of your choice.

I'm trying to hack the registry of my s310 but i'm having no luck. i tried using Resco Explorer Registry Addin [SP] and Regedit STG found on modaco. the changes i make don't even stick [I haven't cycled power cause everytime i tap done to make the changes the values are still the same] I am trying to app unlock my s310. any other way I can do this? btw this is the reference I am trying to follow: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=235408&st=0&p=708679&#entry708679

What languages set is in that ROM?
Hello,
I would like to ask if this is a ROM with Russian/Polish version of WM5?
Thanks in advance for your answer (waiting for Polish version;-) )
Best greetings
Abram
Russian/Polish T9
I supposed the dictionary does support russian/polish T9 since this is more like an European ROM to me. Russian and Polish language are found inside. No chinese/east asian language though.
Additional question for you Sir
Thats a great news for me that you have found that Polish language in that new ROM file.
But - please - make me sure - you mean there is a Polish language to choose not in 'Regiona setings' (date, currency etc) BUT in system - so I will see Polish words in menu, in alerts etc?
It wold be a Salvation for me, really;-)
Best greetings,
Here are the languages available on the shipping ROM.
--
UK English
Magyar
Francais
suomi
US English
Dansk
Nederlands
Norsk
Svenska
Slovencina
--
So... thats a Zonk...
As I can see there is no Polish language in that ROM.
Upss...
Anyway thanks for your help!

I have a Vodafone V1605 and it comes in English lenguage.
I want to upgrade to a Spanish ROM (hopely the last ROM) but I don't now how to do it or where to find the correct executable ROM file.
My PDA Phone is SIM Free and I'm affraid if the new ROM could change it, Is it possible?
Thank you for your help.
Mario.
Currently Vodafone Spain has not released any rom upgrade yet, and there's no other ROM upgrade available in spanish.
Check this page for the latest ROM aditions (in any language):
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
Perhaps they haven't any published ROM, but It may be anyone becouse Vodafone sell this PDA Phone here in Spain.
I tryed to upgrade with an i-Mate spanish ROM (JAM_ESP_11203_159_11210_ship.exe) but an error occurs. Something like "Wrong country".
How can I solve this problem?
In addition, the bluetoth has not the "OBEX" service, so I can't send any stored item. Could this function be 'unlocked'?
Thank you.

BE CAREFUL!!! You were trying to flash a Jam ROM, imate Jam is HTC Wizard, not HTC Hermes, you should flash "JasJam" ROMs but not "Jam" ROMs. Luckily it did not flash, otherwise you could have bricked your unit!
For now just be patient, when a ROM upgrade is available in Spanish we will publish it on the shipped ROMs wiki page.
OK Prof.
(¿No es un poco absurdo que estemos hablando en inglés?)
I'll wait untill this ROM were available

Hi
My Dad just returned from HK with a brand new device, but unfortunately, he didn't realise it was in Chinese. He tried to upgrade it to the WWE ROM, but it is now stuck in the "rainbow" screen and says USB or serial.
Searched the forums, but we're not sure how to get it back to the working Chinese version at the very least! Very disappointed- pls help!
first try to make a reset if it doesn't work make a hard reset or flash it with a dopod cht rom.
Kinda fixed
Thank God, with all the above help, I managed to at least get it back to the Chinese ROM. There doesn't appear to be any ROMs (English or otherwise) located on Dopod's HK website. I have emailed support and will see whether I get a reply.
IMEI-Check it to super CID. Do all flashing with no sim/sd in.
Then you can flash any Rom, including wm6.

Will this fix all my problems, ie. let me flash to the WWE from the CHT version??
Any future problems with the device if I unlock my U1000? This would be great if people could share their experiences. There are lots of threads here about changing language, but no one seems to have tried this...

Just go ahead and do it. Mine was Ameo Dutch. After Imei-check unlock I now have WWE or any rom I want. What future problems are you imagining?
I'm just thinking about the best thing for me to do.
Assuming Dopod doesn't do it for free (I doubt they will since it was our error), I might just go ahead and do it.
I just want to be in a position to take advantage of the WM6 upgrade whenever that is available. At this stage, with the CHT ROM, does it mean that if I do nothing and upgrade to the official WM6 when it is available, I will only be able to get the Chinese version?
Thanks

No problem at all. Except this European WWE does not allow Chinese Display fonts. Don't know why yet. I didn't come across that problem before. I asked HTC, the tech guy named Philp refused to help quoting company policy that I either to log in HTC in Europe and he knew they couldn't help. He said he will not help Dopod phone either. These turkeys own Dopod and made phone for Dopod and Dopod charged nearly double for that brand name in China. Why they draw such stupid lines among themselves I really don't know.

Could you please explain what those files are and if there is a way already to use them for swapping with the stock rom version? Thanks
That board here seems mighty, but somehow most people are so used to know a lot about what can be done, that it is a bit difficult to get into it, when you are new to all that.
The first one maybe an Italian ROM for Iolite.
The Second on is WWE Europe ROM for Iolite which is what I am using for about a month now.
Connect an USB cable from your PC to the phone and run the file. It will overwrite your phone with the WWE Europe ROM.
Thanks a lot
As far as I understand, it won't be possible when my Iolite is CID-locked, and it will flash if it is not.
But in general, how big is the chance that I might end up with a brick and if so, is there a way to recover it?

Normally, it either flashes or comes back with an error message and no harm done. Just don't unplug the cable while things are going on. The program will check for success and if not it will show you how to do recovery.
Hi, what languages contains the WWE Europe ROM please?
Thank you
WWE is English ROM.
It does not matter it is Europe, Asia or U.S.A. I guess WWE stands for World Wide English. The differences I found usually in the customization especially the "Connection Setup". Each country has different service providers. For example, you will find AT&T in U.S.A. ROM. Asia one will have HongKong operator, Malaysia...
Sometimes they overlap.
Difference are minor. But they do show with different ROM version numbers.

WWE (Europe) without HardSPL
PLEASE ADVICE !!!
I have a question to advanced lolite users:
I have German ROM on my xda Guide (lolite).
Can I replace this rom by "HTC Iolite - 1.09.401.3 - WWE (Europe)" provided by udk without HardSPL?
Can I just connect my phone via Windows Mobile Device Center and run "RUU_Iolite_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.3_Radio_Sign_12.41 .30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship.exe" ROM provided by udk without installing Hard SPL first?
Anyone tried this soulution?
Please advice!
Many thanks in advance for the answer!
Hi
I have touch cruise 09 with the following ROM information.
ROM version: 1.10.707.3 (41889).
I purchased this device from Hong Kong but I wanted to know if this is a UK ROM (which I doubt it is) or a chinese one. Is their any way of finding that information out? Eventually I want to update the ROM to chinese one.

This Rom is probably for Hong Kong Vendor ID, as I tried this rom on my Taiwan purchased one and it issues an incorrect vendor ID. Seems that in order to change the Taiwanese rom to WWE, I have to wait for the proper HardSPL .
Just wonder if the Jade HardSPL will work on the Iolite machine. Since I already used it once to "release" my Jade from "Jail" , it will not allow me to re-try for the Iolite (it will issue a message indication that I have used it once to change the CID of one machine..).
Has somebody tried the Jade HardSPL (I think ver3) to modify the Iolite CID?

I can allow you a second device, but it must be jade, not iolite - it would not work on iolite. anyway see my other msg's here in Iolite forum about status of HSPL and about another possibility on iolite language change that I can help with (just send me a PM)
