Hi All, I bought a 750v in Germany while on Hols recently but cant change the language to English. Will I need to flash it, If so how is it done and where can I get the firmware. Maybe I'm missing something simple but although I dont speak German I can get to the language settings and selsect English but I get an error message which I dont understand. Tried a hard reset but to no avail. Hope somone can help.. Thanks Stretcher.
Yup, you'll need to flash. I havn't bought mine yet but I first did a research. Since I live in Switzerland, it's hard to find anything in English. One on-line retailer told me the same thing - that though the ROM is in German, it could be switched to English. I then asked Palm and they confirmed that I should order an English version.
Thanks, Zerimar. Any idea where the firmware can be sourced ???
There's a Cingular ROM in the ftp but those who have flashed this ROM now complain that it has a lot of bugs. If you do flash with this ROM there's no way of flashing back your original.
Cheers Zerimar.
I'm a Vodafone customer and my sim works fine it just the language of WM5 thats the problem. Can I just flash an English version of WM5 on its own ???
Stretcher..
Unfortunately there's no other shipped rom available except the Cingular one.
Language change
Same problem here:
I recently bought a Palm Treo 750v very cheap, but it is in French language.
As far as i know the only solution to change the language is to flash the ROM with a different language.
Does anyone of you know where i can download a German or English ROM ?
You can also send me the link to download it to my PM.
Thanks in advance !

I have the same problem.
I bought the Palm from Vodafone and they assured me there was the italian language inside but no luck ... german only.
Any change to dump out the ROM from there?
Same here. Treo 750v in French.
My provider and even Palm told me to do a hard reset an a language selection prompt would appear .....
I don't think there is any Treo 750v with language selection,
this is not known on WM5 units, only on the multilingual Palm OS Treos.
I had the chance to flash it English, now it is usable for me.
Maybe there will be a German ROM soon ?
I found a way to change the language to English. But the phone app crashes then! It seems that all WM5 apps have a main language (english) and your local language as second language. However the phone app (by Palm?) must have one only language because it crashes all the time.
I seeked in the WM5 registry for MUI, my setting is 1040 (italian), so I tried to switch it to 1031 (german) and 1033 (english). And it worked, but the phone app would constantly crash and make the system slow.
There are also more keys that are specific to languages, like just search the registry for your language key (best results) or search for "lang".
Now the question is: can one just patch the phone app (cprog.exe i think) to support english or is it a different issue?

Hi there,
Have spotted that Calico had an original French-ROM 750v.
Calico, if it remained untouched, are you considering exchanging it with my original English-ROM version? Where are you based?
Cheers, Dom
if you can make MUI in german, you can use like this way.

Hey,
I'm thinking of ordering it unlocked from O2 Germany.
I think It'll be in German settings, so I was wondering if any could guide me through (German or English) how to get to the settings and change the language.
If you can guide me through in English I'll use a translator to know what words they are in German
Edit: Ok, I ordered it

I have the same idea too, now that you have ordered it can you tell me if you can set other languages other than English,German or Spanish?(like Italian maybe??)
Hi there,
I read a bit around without finding an answer.
I own a Galaxy which I want to sell. As I used a tuned ROM, I decided to fully flash it back to stock ROM.
I found on samfirmware the 2.3.6 Open Europe stock and I flashed it without any issue. Except the phone interface starts in English and it'd better to start in French if I want to get a chance to sell it.
Any advice to start in French? Or do I have to reflash it with a specific French ROM?
Thanks for your help.
Hi this rom what are you flashed is good.Go to settings>regional and language>and you will find your language.
Try go to settings > regional and language and you could select your language but seems like some ROM do not provide multi language but just try it first
I don't know, if it's possible.
But i know that the ROM select the language of your sim card.(I think...)
Else try to change the country code in XEF
Is there anyway to add more language's (missing Finland)? I thought it doesn't matter where i buy my device it would always have all languages available in settings but they weren't. I bought my device from UK and i'm stuck with eng language. I'm almost perfectly fine with eng display language but I was wondering if there is a trick to get fin languange from settings. Maybe another rom includes my native language and localization?
I bought N950U1 from Usa and Came back to Turkey but it does not support Turkish Language totaly. I selected Turkish language from menu but still 95 percent English. Please suggest me compatible rom or way to solve it.
