HTC Diamond changing country and language. - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I have a couple of question regarding my HTC Diamond touch.
I bought this when I stayed in US. It is an unlocked phone and I have also done the normal rom upgrades from HTC. Not the one from january since I am not able to download it yet.
I want to changes the lay-out of my keyboard to support norwegian character set. How can I do this ?
I am consider to download and install rom upgrade for Norway to get my windows in norwegian. Is there any step by step instruction ?
Thank you all for your kind answer.
Tony

It's definitely best to flash it with a norwegian rom.
All flashing infos can be found up in wiki ?
Here's the HTC Diamond section
Hope that helps.

PDA Noob needs some help :)

Hi there,
I found this forum, it seems great !
Just ordered today a HTC 3600. I would like to enable the GPS radio
I have read many of the threads posted here, I have some difficulty understand most of the terms. I searched for a glossary or alike in the website with no luck, can anyone give me a quick start?
I know the phone is not SIM locked.
But what is CID and Super CID, how does it affect me?
What is SSPL ?
I ordered the english version, is that WWE?
What is ExtROM ?
Sorry for the stupid questions (more to come)
Thanks again.

One thing at a time mate,
1st starting tomorrow 2/4/2007 you will be able to download a GPS enabled rom from the official HTC europe site (www.htceurope.com) .
2ndWWE stands for World Wide English and its the language your rom is written in ,since your's is English you'l have no problem in installing the GPS rom from HTC and you will have no warranty issues.
3rd SSPL is a program developed by Pof which enables devices to be flashed with a different rom from that which their CID supports.
4th CID is a type of lock which HTC puts on its devices to stop people from changing for instance WWE devices to FRE,English to French.
5th The Sim/Cid lock can be permanently removed by using pofs unlocker but you will lose your warranty .
If i were you i'd either dowload the WWE Gps enabled rom youl find in this link
http://rapidshare.com/files/22908060...8_GPS.exe.html
and run it from my pc after first having charged the PPc battery 100% removed the sim card and synched to my computer using active sync.
Or wait until 2/4/2007 and download the HTC rom from the Htc site both roms are identical,its up to you.

Yes, the English ROM is in English and the Swedish ROM is Swedish.
The first poster asked if the WWE ROM is english. WWE stands for World Wide English, thats why!

Hello Iceman67,
I have made it !
Go to XDA-Wiki download Rom eng (i have taken RUU_Trinity_HTC_WWE_1_1_.23.405.2_103_6275_1.38.00.11_108_GPS.exe as i guess it is the good one), download also your original rom (in case you need to fall back) plus a small app SSPL-TRIN to trick the device.
It is quit simple but it could not work at first time.
Here it works only at the second time... but it it work

Hi Yonixxx
The ROM in WWE gave me error 294 Invalid Vendor ID and the SSPL-TRIN I don't know how to use it, can you tell me how to do that?
thank
Put the SSPL-TRIN app on your phone, run it, then run the RUU.

Hi Plastriq
Can I put it in any folder or there is a specific folder to put it? When you said run it you talking about the SSPL, because this program doesn't run and I don't know why.
Thanks
I have made it and works good.
Thanks

HTC Touch Pro2 NL - update ROM to EN version, how?

I bought a new HTC Touch Pro2 and made the wrong ROM choice. The NL version does not provide English as language. Smartphone can not be changed by the reseller
Is there a way to change NL ROM to EN ROM or add English as a language so I can use English Interface

Not possible ATM. You will have to wait for Hard-SPL to be available.
That will allow you to flash another ROM to your device.
NO problem:
-create a goldcard using QMAT, and put the OFFICIAL HTC ROM on the card in your preferred language; Call this nbh file: RHODIMG.NBH
Now boot into three colored screen (volume down & reset) and your device will be flashed to your desired language.

No problem with QMAT.
I have make an update from German to WWE today.
Does it only change the language or replace the complete ROM?
It is a complete ROM.
Sorry guys, bit of a novice at this what does the following mean.
"and put the OFFICIAL HTC ROM on the card in your preferred language"
I have downloaded QMAT and have found the Gold card bit but totally flummoxed as to what todo next.
I am english but living in NL and have the same prob with dutch ROM on it.
Thx

What is in the Europe ROM?
I dont have a TP2, and im not a cook either so I dont know anything about the ROMs. I have just put all the ROMs I could find in one place for others to use/play with
I've upgraded my device succesfully to the Europe ROM. Does anybody knows, if this ROM includes multiple languages?
If yes? Can I define the desired target language?
I really want to change my TP2 to WWE but first I wanted to download the PTG (portuguese) ROM that I have in my device!
How can I do it? Or should I find it somewhere in the internet?
Thanks
You can ask cmonex via PM.
Flashing the Rom
I've just found out also that once you have your gold card you can use ROMUpdateUtility with RUU_signed.nbh or whatever and it works entirely well!
even though T-Mobile US TP II has not yet released
do you think is it possible to flash TMO_US to CHT?
note: I need to keep band IV support (TMO hardware has band I/IV instead of I/VIII)
So would it be possible to put an english rom on a french pda ?
Cause i'd rather have the azerty keyboard, but that's only for sale with the french phones.
guys,,
I bought my TP2 from UK, and I tried to update my device by using the new ARABIC ROM....but it keeps giving me this message:​
ERROR [294]: invalid vendor ID
This update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone​
you have to unlock first
Ofcourse the arabic ROM will not install on your UK device. You will have to unlock it using the method mentioned in this forum.
The only thing is that you will need a registered version of QMAT which costs around 20 euros

Looking for HTC Tattoo Thai ROM

Hello
I have followed the VERY helpfull posts in this forum and have sucessfully created a gold card and Flashed the Official WWE rom which is a big improvement over my Malaysian brought Tattoo original ROM however I live in Thailand and would like to have Thai character display and keyboard so I would like to flash a Thai ROM (Tattoo now sells in Thailand) but so far I have been unable to locate one.
If any body can point me to one I would greatly apreciate it - It doesnt have to be Custom I would happily load what is currently sold on Tattoos in Thailand right now.
for thai fonts you may look in http://www.droidsans.com
to install thai keyboard just go to http://www.cn.co.th/android from your tattoo browser
Thai Language
Thank you RTSP the links you gave look promising but I am unable to find the download link either through the site, via my Phone or via Market place so haven't been able to give it a go. Maybe it does not work with Tattoo despite what the title says.
I have a local Tattoo, and yes, it had the Thai fonts and keyboard software pre-installed (but the user interface is all English)
I am really not sure where you can download the actual ROM image, but I'll keep an eye out
Thanks
Etimago
Thanks for confirming there is one - Hope fully there will be a ROM image out there soon.
Cheers

Searching for Czech rom

Hi all,
i don't know if i posts this one in the right topic, but i really need to flash my Diamond to the Czech language...
At the moment the Diamond is running the official Dutch rom, but since i got myself the HD2, my collegue wants to take over my old Diamond. The problem is that he is a Czech...
So, i see 2 possibilities...
1) Someone knows a location of a Czech ROM for the Diamond or,
2) Someone can provide me a serial number of a Diamond wich has an official Czech ROM so i can download the most recent release from the HTC site.
Please, could someone help me out with this one?
In either case, the phone is allready HSPL'ed so flashing a new ROM is not a problem.
Grz, Erwin
Czechs and their localization obsession ...
Try Erzika, many Czechs like it.
