I just had my Lumia 800 unsimlocked officialy by my operator (Orange France) this morning, after receiving a code. My phone now works with different micro-sim, as I wanted. I am a beginner with the Lumia so forgive my stupid question please: now that my mobile is desimlocked, do I have to consider it unbranded? Is it the same? Next time I will make a firmware update through Zune, will it detect this fact and install me an "non-branded" rom?
Thanks for your answers.
I love this forum, so usefull:silly:

No, if you do that your phone will become a useless brick. You can only install RM-820 ROMs.
And as far as I know there is no way to unlock AT&T L920 yet. So, I'm not sure how you plan to use your phone outside of USA.
This is so stupid from MS. Window 7.5 has all lang you want to use.

Not so. The languages included on a specific phone are determined by both carriers who branded it and the maker of the phone. AT&T phones are traditionally lean on included languages.
My last phone "Samsung Focus" from AT&T running window 7.5 and you can select any language you prefer.
Case in point:
Nokia Lumia 810 (on T-Mobile): all languages
HTC 8x (T-Mobile variant): only 5 European languages
Another case in point:
AT&T Lumia 920: tiny number of languages
Rogers Lumia 920: huge number of languages, including Polish
Easy to blame Microsoft, but this is not a Microsoft issue, it's one with the handset maker and the mobile operator, as another poster noted.

Hello XDA,
I've got a Lumia 920 and I'm pretty new to all this flashing thing and I was wondering: How do I know what ROM to flash on my phone? Maybe the question sounds too general, but I will get into details in a moment.
I bought my phone from Romania ( the country I live in ), but the phone came with a Poland ROM. I also want to update to the latest firmware which has the camera fixes and battery improvements, but I don't know what ROM to choose.
I have an unbranded phone ( not locked on any carrier ) and I want it to stay that way. Would any of you be so kind to look on Navifirm at the 1232.5951.1249.xxxx ROMS for the RM-821 Lumia 920 and tell me what ROM to flash to stay unlocked and have access to all Nokia apps from the marketplace? I say this because I had issues on my old Lumia 800 with dissapearing xbox live and not having all nokia apps.
Thank you very much in anticipation and Happy Holidays !
EDIT: I found this ROM: 059R747: RM-821_920_VAR259096_CEE_CV_12491_Black which seems to be the right one for me. Romania is in Central Europe ( provided CEE means Central & Eastern Europe ) so I guess it's ok to flash this on my devide. Wish me luck
Hello guys, I've got Nokia Lumia 920 from China with my friend's help. I was unable to install facebook, youtube & most of the apps, it just keeps on saying that this app is not available in your region though all those apps works in my friend's Lumia 800...
later i came to know that my phone is RM-822...
so can i do anything for this, to make it normal as other phones which r compatible to all apps...
may be debranding or changing RM numbers or product code stuff ?..
Have you tried changing the country/region setting to US?
What country is the Microsoft account you're using with the phone from?
lumia rm822

Even I am facing same problem with my phone. Can anyone help here.
No solution yet
It's probably because facebook and youtube are banned in China. So phones targeted for the Chinese market can't have those apps. maybe you can try to flash your phone with a RM821 firmware and maybe that will solve the problem..

is that possible to flash with RM-821 firmware. i think, phone will be not work ...someone in china have a try...：哭：
The Lumia 920T from China uses a different SoC with a different GPU than the US/EU-Versions (RM-820, RM-821) because it was the only Qualcomm Chip available that supports the Chinese 3G variant. Based on that I'm pretty sure that international ROMs will not work.

This might get it done but I'm not sure if rm-822 will support rm-821 firmware. Flash at your own risk. Seems like with this method you could always re-flash to rm-822 if it didn't work though. Good luck!
Any update ?

I have tried a few ROMS. None of them work.
I also have a china mobile Lumia 920, if I could at least change the market to us or any other country it would be great....
Sent from my Lumia920 using Foroplex
It works!
I have downloaded the Vietnam firmware onto my RM-822 product code: 059T066, had to do the hold down power and volume down buttons to get Nokia Care to flash but it has worked and now can access the UK store and Skype, Facebook etc. :laugh:

Does anyone know how to modify the rom to allow a marketplace other than China? I have not been able to flash any European or US rom because it seems there are some hardware differences, thus is there any way to alter the firmware?
Hey,
i´m new on Nokia ROMs. I already downloaded NaviFirm and flashed the RAW_DEVELOPER_ROM - everything works fine...
Can somebody explain me the structure (name) of a ROM?
Thanks in advance for your help!
SP
wanna know this too
Bumping this. i would love to know this too.. any WP8 Gurus out there??
I am purely guessing it is a Branded Everything Everywhere ROM, CV is carrier vendor, RM821 is the device code for EU models?
Lumia 920 has four device codes, RM820, 821, 822, 867 the latter being the chinese 920T,
EE_CV is for Everything Everywhere branded rom.
If you are looking for UK then it will be GB_CV
