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

Hi everybody!
Well, it has good and bad effects to life in a poorer country. I bought a xda over ebay and imported it into Hungary where I work and life. I tried to get some kind of a holder for my car....none.
I tried to get a car cit (handsfree kit with no cable for the headset etc, which even offers the possibilty to connect a gps) ...none
I tried to find someone to build me one....full hit!
If anyone can get hold of the plans + maybe some parts, I will have the guy who does the moldering for realy low money. As far as I know there are plans flying arround how to do it but I could not get hold of them. Further I was also not able to get some parts I think one needs for this.
If we take this all and make a circle out of this there is a cheap working solution, my only trouble is I have trpoubles with the parts and plans.
If you can help me we could produce this cheap and everyone can participate.
What do you guzs think about this?
Maybe I look right now as a cut off, being new here but I am not. I run a company here for several years. Being a newbie in something does not mean to have bad ideas.
Flame me, throw things on me or give me bad names, I dont mind. But I believe there more people out there which would like this question solved but do not have the abillities to do it themselves.
Hi hungarian,
I've the same problems but I've found two companies who build special cables or where you can buy plugs with or without open cables. I think the best one is in Germany:

I've wrote him today and wait for an answer.
or here:

Please email to me directly to [email protected] for further communication. B.T.W. I was born in East Germany and we will never forget the year 1989 ;-)

if you have the coins are there no companies which are willing to ship to Hungary ?
if not then joining the union should solve that i suppose

shipping and dealing are no troubles. but finding something which is worth the cash is a complete different point. But if you know anything new, please give me the imput and i will be happy.... :wink:

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

I killed my Kaiser by flashing a Touch Diamond ROM to it.
Sent it to repair service and they say the Mainboard needs to be replaced,but the price for repair is ultragious .
I realy need the device,it was a big help in my confused life style.
Can anyone tell me how can i fix it myself. Or where i can buy a mainboard. Or where can i send the device to repair for a cheaper service?
Sorry i have started a new thread,but i think this is a serious matter,cause HTC TyTN II is not a toy"I know i done to it the same as to a toy" and its expensive. Please help.
Thanks in advance for all your help guys.
(Solved)
why would you flash a touch diamond rom when your device is a kaiser?

Touch diamond isn't all that great. It's lyk a Nokia platform on a PDA, why'd u flash it to a kaiser anyway ?!
About the raw materials, you can easily get the main board (for cheep) through any cellphone spareparts shop online through google . As far as repair is concerned, its as easy as performing a hardware upgrade for your pc; un-plug--> plug. If you're still scared, you can google for a stp by stp instructions.

As for where to purchase parts, I'd normally tell you to go here: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~HTC_TyTN_II-972~area~home.htm but they don't have motherboards.
Your best bet might be to buy something from eBay with a cracked screen, because the motherboard, cpu & chipset is usually the most expensive part, and if you fry that it's usually easier to just buy new...
Hope this helps!

Thankx Alex.
I knew that wise words and advice would come out of the inner you.
I went to Mike Channon Home Page and left a message there,im still waiting for a reply.
I will go get the Device from the repair shop tomorrow. Ididnt accepted the price.
I will try and fix it myself,as i have the hability to fix Electronic things as PCs,Laptops,Mobiles etc,thank GOD.
Im low on economic status,but i will try Ebay my friend.
First Kitchen i used was the one with all your OEM Packages. So i love your work.
Hope you keep up in the good path of life .
For some of the others, should ignore any inconscient reply.
Of course i didn wanted to kill my Device. I just cooked HTC Touch Diamond ROM in a Kaiser Kitchen,added some Apps from the ROM i cooked based on C. Stu ROM to make it more colorfull,more alive to our eyes. But it went wrong,and if Man doesnt commited mistakes,so there wouldnt be positive results. Test we need. Mistakes have to occur in order to get better things.
People in Ethiopia have a more confused life than me. Im not an egocentric person, but cool .
I always learned things the hard way .
While I changed my screen I broke the keyboard connector on the mainboard. The brown plastic closing mechanism broke to parts. Any clue where I could buy a new one and if it is possible to change it (solder?)?

he cooked the rom first ... and i'm guessing something didn't go right. OFCOURSE he just didn't straight flash a diamond rom .. he's a cook so i think he knows better than that.

Im sorry for what append to you device. It doesnt make us feel good.
What did realy append ?
What part do you need ?
I have the solution for that. If you need a new Mainboard i can get it for you.
I dont make crazy prices. Probably a new device for the price of a Mainboard,thats what ive done,but im searching for a Mainboard supplier thought .
If you want to know more PM me.

Nope,i didnt straight flashed a Diamond Rom.
I knew i had to cook it. But forgot that i had to Port XIP and probably SYS from a Kaiser ROM to the Diamond one, or the reverse.
Im still on the learning process. But as you must know,Time is the Master.
And learning and take actions till they come correct its a bit time consuming. And i dont have much time these days.
I learned the hard way. I believe thats one thing that will never appen again .
Im waiting for my new Kaiser to arrive. Couldnt find a Mainboard supplier yet.
But i can get Kaisers for less then the price they asked me in the repair shop.
Hi guys.
I'm interested in buying a Kaiser.
I'd flash the rom with Tir v10k, seems working good.
What do you think of this smartphone?
I usually use Nokia with Symbian, just wanted that for trying it.
Is it the same if I get a V1615, Mda Vario III, P4550, Htc Tytn II, Xda Stellar? Or not?
I'm trying to buy it on Ebay, sometimes you can get a good price, I don't want to pay it more than 200€.
I found the utility for unlocking it, in case of device locked to some operator: it's not difficult the operation, right?
Tell me what you think.
Thanks
I also used to use nokia symbian phones but beleive me bro once i got a tytn2 and started flashing roms and "buying" programs for it i wil NEVER go back to a symbian phone the wm phone are so much more versatile than symbian.
The unlocking process is very simple its just like installing a game to you pc as long as you follow the instructions you cant go wrong (well most cant).
Would highly recommend a kaiser/tynt2 also opposed to buying one off e-bay there is a site selling them brand new for around £260 maybe £240 cant remember have a google,would be better if you cant get it new for warranty purposes.
Enjoy your phone when you get it,i am due an upgrade now but regardless of getting a new phone i am not going to sell my tytn 2.
Also i have just posted about anyone who has bricked there kaiser/tytn2 because i didnt take very good care of my housing and am looking to buy a second hand good condition housing,so USE the pouch it comes with because it will chip easily if you drop it, i just paid £25.88 just for a battery cover for it so be warned.
Thanks so much for fast reply.
Can you give some examples of useful sofwares for Windows Mobile?
I cannot find the site you're talking about for taking a new one. Do you think they have many problems that I should need warranty? I don't want a phone for bringing it to assistance every month. Is warranty European on these products?
Thanks

The softwares that are usefull all depend on what you are going to be using the phone for...there are many different UI (User Interfaces) available to download like htc home,manilla 2d/3d, spb mobile shell just to mention a few it all depends on what you want on your home screen.
The warranty is the manafacturers warranty which means that if theres is a manafacturers fault with the device you can send it back for upto one year,some phones will allways be sent out with a fault that got past the manafacturers tests but not very often but it does sometimes happen and if your the unlucky person that gets that one in ten thousand phone you will want to send it back.
I personally have had no problem with my tytn2,there is so much software out there for all walks of life.
I wil try and find that site for you...
Heres one...

Hi all.
Im curious how much is cost HTC One in swedish (I got brother there) so if it is cheaper then here i could maybe buy from sweden.
Also keep in mind phone should be "CARRIER FREE" and "SIM UNLOCKED"..
Thank you guys for all your help.

Somewhere around 700 euros (6000SEK) but you will not be able to get it before May.
The Swedish shops will be selling at just a little under 6000 SEK.
Here's a simple guide for you for the future:
If you ever find yourself asking the question "Is X cheaper in Sweden" .. the answer is almost always no.
This is just one of the reasons why I'm buying from the UK.
