Default buying a german stellar (kaiser i think) off ebay - live in uk

Sorry every1 i posted this in the general section , i had plenty of reads but no advice so im posting it here cos the auction im interested in ends very soon. 'just wanna buy a german kaiser and use it in the uk by flashing it with english rom and using in uk network' u don't have to read the rest just answer me this please. is it possible, thanks guys
hello everyone, im glad to be back! haven't used this forum in well over a year and ive missed it. ive decided to get another ppc. i'm looking at getting the tytn 2 off ebay. basically i want just the most powerful spec ppc. apart from the shift and advantage (cant afford them) this seems the best choice. also i would like a qwerty keyboard although b4 i got by with the spb full keyboard but now i want a qwerty one. if anyone can suggest any other ppc's with a high spec let me know plz. i didn't wanna spend more than a 200 quid but after watching ebay for 3 days it seems i have to.i've got 300 quid but for that i'd like a ppc a decent memory card and some bluetooth stereo headphones such as the sony ones. luckily ive got still got loads software (i.e. tomtom) from b4 but that's from older os'es. the one on ebay is 200 buy it now but its shipped from germany.the whole lisitng is in german but at the bottom is says 'attention int. buyers this phone has german software' surely i can just flash it with an english rom such as dutty's? is that correct?just as i was leaving the forums last time. xda-dev had 2 take all the roms down due to a copyright warning from ms. does this mean i have to cook my own? sounds daunting. basically i just wanna know if this german stellar is gonna b compatible on english nets? and if anyones got any suggestions for another ppc. sorry for posting in the general section, maybe this could have went in a different board but i've got 21 hours or so till the auction ends. thanks guys. glad 2 b bk, gareth
p.s. i've got an almost new orbit with a cracked screen. anyone good at fitting screens, or wanna buy it? or sell me a screen lol. ( i still want a newer ppc though) this is why i left the boards- cracked me screen didnt i lol.
Default cmon ppl
cmon guys sum1 must b able 2 spare me a minute. the auction ends soon. 'can i buy a german kaiser, flash it wiv english rom and use on uk network'

no man. most of the times the device ID does not match along with the carrier rom of other operators. so if your device is german operator specific, i dont think it will match along with ur desired rom updated. and since u r planning to buy from ebay, you only have a less chance of getting the full advantage of knowing you can rom update into english

German to English ROM change should be OK

I don't think you should have any trouble - people take devices that started out with WorldWideEnglish on them and flash to different language ROM's all the time. The hardware is the same, the keyboard layout may be slightly different. You will have to follow directions here and Hard-SPL unlock, and may need to do SIM-unlock, but I know it's all do-able.

thanx 4 the reply
thanks a lot guys,well.. what do i do here? 2 pieces of conflicting info from 2 experienced guys. shall i take this as it should be ok but theres a possibility of it going wrong? i called uk 02 tech support, they wouldn't tell me anything 'cant make any guarantees, we dont support this etc.etc.'the guy has posted it on uk ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=270225685569&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=017
is it not worth the risk then do you think
n e got 1 for sale? lol

i wouldnt listen to what ayyu3m said at all. true the ID will be different, but that is one of the reasons we use hardspl. we can bypass the CID and install rom from other kaisers. no problems whatsoever, expect maybe the keyboard layout

yea i agree, cid is counrty id isnt it? still not sure what 2 do. ill have to check the standard german keyboard layout. 200 quid is alot to waste but then again i could whack it back on ebay.has anyone actually tried this?cheers 4 ur reply m8, and the others all appreciated

CID=carrier ID

Where can I get an original screen protector?

As the title suggests...
I put my original one on as soon as I took the phone out of its box, but unfortunately I did it slightly squint!
It has now started gathering dust on the bit thats slightly off, so I want to replace it. Where can I find an official HTC one?

thanks...
They can't expect them to last very long since they're selling them in packs of 6!
At least it'll give me a couple of shots at sticking them on straight!

wow those are pretty expensive.......
better off getting some off ebay =)

I don't know if its just me, but the 2 times I tried looking through the HTC Store site it ctashed my Diamond?!
I was looking at the extended battery with new back cover!
Also... the dock says it has removable inserts for the standard and extended covers

You can also look here for a pack of two!

Can anyone tell me the difference between the SP P100 and the ST P170 versions?!
The SP P100 is £20.95 for 5 and the ST P170 is £27.95 for 6 and is pre-order.
Perhaps its thicker?

why don't you post in diamond accessories? this is not the place!

Kaiser in Spanish

I have a quick question, if I am about to buy a Kaiser in Spanish all that I have to do is flash the phone with an English ROM and I'll have a regular Kaiser correct? Please help quickly because I don't have much time to buy this phone.

yes .......................

I also have one more question, the phone that I am looking to purchase has a Z key missing, is there any way (and if so how or where and how much) to get a new Z key for the phone?
Thank you so much for all of the help.

ebay is your friend my friend ... search for replacement keypads for kaiser. And secondly why don't you buy from someone here??? alot of kaiser users are selling their kaisers as they are switching to the fuze or someother new phone for htc.

hell I would love to buy from someone here but the thing is people are looking for a lot more here then on EBay right? Like I mean I am looking at them on Ebay for like $200? If some one can offer a deal around there I would much rather buy from here.

parts replacement
It seems to me the two best sites I have found for Kaiser parts, are CNN.CN and cellulardr - both sell the keypad

Question (a few actually)

I'm sorry if the question has been asked before but i couldn't find it myself.
Here it is: Does the battery cover wear-off like the original diamond's? Can it be replaced with a back cover from original diamond When i purchase an extended battery for example. Is the battery exactly the same as in the original diamond. I personally think the MDA compact has a little more classic look thet would suit me better but I can see it's cheaper in my country and there must be a reason why. Thank you.

[Q] New Batteries for HD2 check this out!

Hi all i found some links on ebay has anyone any experiences with these ones?
Are they useful?
Links are in German language
http://cgi.ebay.de/Power-Akku-Accu-...ndy_Zubehör&hash=item2eb18be457#ht_636wt_1139
http://cgi.ebay.de/Handy-Akku-HTC-H...ndy_Zubehör&hash=item2a0bfca360#ht_1296wt_929

I note really that good at reading German any more. Do u have the page in English?

I am sorry

I bought that one
dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.35635
i use it since one week and it feels like the original akku

I use the same one
But i noticed at long use i looses much faster energy then the original one, i am using it 7 months +/- now

Hi,
I am german and just watched the ebay links.
I can tell you: Nothing special. The first link looks kinda interesting, because its only 7,77€, may give it a try.
But the second one looks totally crappy, the standard cheap no-name battery from china. And way too expensive. Wouldn't buy one.
Hope I can help with this
Grüsse aus Deutschland ;-)

the first link is the battery with 1500mAh and original it has 1230mAh!
But i dont know if this is real could be a fake too.
btw im from Germany too

I bought one like this also, the only visible difference on the batteries as I found is serial number. One is bigger and on another battery is smaller, but I don't know which one is now genuine and which one fake/spare.
Could you tell me, looking at yours?
