6915 upgrade from english rom to french

[vanoven]

i found yesterday a french rom on Orange business website:
http://www.mobilite.fr.orange-business.com/public/oev4/html/fr/pme/mobiles/ba/dl.php?mi=192&pi=2510

i tried this one on an english hw6915 and now i have a french one
i used the updater that come with the rom and i didn't modify anything

orange logo everywhere, i don't know if this rom can simlock the phone to Orange
and there is Orange navigator instead of tomtom

i Hope this can help the hw6900 community

(sorry for my poor english ^^)


edit : the phone isn't simlocked, i've just tried a SFR sim card (another french gsm network)

Great ROM. I flashed it to my Vodafone 6910, although it turns my phone from English to French, this ROM is more responsive than the orginal rom. The version is 1.65.01FRA, rom date is 01/30/07, while my orignal version is 1.13UK. The best thing about this rom, it does not check if the phone is the same language version, it just went ahead and did the update. For those who once has ur phone stuck in bootloader, this one can save ur phone, although make it a French one. So far so good.

Seem older than Orange ROM, but I had problems disassembling the Orange ROM. This one can be cooked (the other too, but how?).

Hi,
I have an English HW6915 , I want to pass it in French. If I use the Bouygues Rom what will happen to the Keyboard?
This rom is supposed to work on FRENCH IPAQ with AZERTY keyboard. The English comes with a QWERTY keyboard.

Did someone check ?

If you want a copy of the rom before I put it in French just ask and tell me how to do it. OSimage tool does not work.

Regards,

Chris

I just made a try with my french hw6915 to go from the Bouygues to the orange rom. I do not see any difference if I flash with the full package:
- radioFs.nbf
- radioOs.nbf
- CEBL.nbs
- CEOS.nbf

or only with
- CEOS.nbf

Do you know what are the 3 others files. By the way going to and from the orange rom does not change the fact that my hw6915 is simlocked on Bouygues.

If someone knows how to unlock it I am interested.

I've upgraded my 1.24FRA to 1.65FRA, looks ok, the only improvement I've noticed is that it doesn't leak memory anymore if you have push mail enabled. Recommended upgrade.
