Upgrading English WM6 to Finnish WM6 - problems, need help!

[Sensonic]

I upgraded my wife's P3300 from English WM5 to English WM6 (WWE 3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90) without a problem.

OK, now I'd like to upgrade it from English WM6 to Finnish WM6 (FIN 3.13.414.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90). When I start the EXE file, it will go all the way to 2% but after that it stops and announces that the hardware (P3300 with English language) is not suitable for Finnish WM6 upgrade. Then the phone is restarted and nothing has happened. It's still in English.

I'd really appreciate if someone would know a solution to flash that Finnish software to that phone. Why it doesn't approve the Finnish software? Is there a certain setting that I'd have to do in order to flash the phone with Finnish WM6?

Thousand thanks in advance!

P.S. Both softwares are DLd from HTC's website so they're not cracked softwares...

BTW, that US HTC link TCP-IP address (to those different softwares) has changed. If someone's interested to get the new TCP-IP address, I can post it over here.

Did you unlock her phone? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403

No I didn't since I didn't know that it requires unlocking in order to flash any WM6 version to it. I'll try it again. Thanks for the advise!

BTW, our phones are not locked by any operator, but I really hope that this method works also for "standard" HTC P3300 phone.

P.S. If unlocking is what it takes to flash any WM6 version to P3300, I think I can manage. But if I'd need some further information, I'd be very pleased if I could then continue my series of "stupid questions" ;)

Well, USPL didn't work for me...
If the flashing should take about 10 minutes, the DOS screen was displayed about 5 minutes and the state of upgrade only 5 seconds.

After that I tried to flash the Finnish WM6 to my wife's phone without any success. The upgrading stops at 2%, after that the phone is rebooted and I'll get the following error message:

So I definitely need some help!
I'd really appreciate if someone could help ASAP!
Thanks in advance!

P.S. I followed the instructions of USPL very closely, so I don't think I've made a mistake during the flashing. The phone is still running on that English WM6:mad:

Device information:

IPL 3.13.0001
SPL 1.11.0000
GSM 02.94.90
OS 3.13.0.0

Which ROM are you trying to flash to it?

Hm well USPL didnt work..

Which ROM are you trying to flash to it?

This one:

HTC_P3300_FIN_3.13.414.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R .exe

Downloaded directly from HTC US site, so it must be an official ROM version.

The English WM6 I have flashed and it's running OK is the following:

HTC_P3300_WWE_3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R .exe

also downloaded from HTC US site, so it's official.

I just don't get it how the hell I could get that Finnish WM6 into my wife's phone... Any help will be highly appreciated!

Never mind, I found the solution. Now my wife's going to get HTC P3300 with Finnish WM6 ;-)

Oops I lost track of this thread.. :(
Glad that you did found a solution tho! :D

Perhaps you could post what the problem was and what you did to get it working?

OK, first I installed USPL to my wife's phone. Since her phone was equipped with English WM5 I flashed it with WM6 WWE at first. After that I used WinHexEdit and copied the country code row from English RUU file. Then I just pasted that country code row to Finnish WM6's RUU file. After that I flashed my wife's phone with the modified Finnish WM6 ROM. It worked and the language was changed from English to Finnish.

But now I'm facing another problem with her phone: I installed HTC Home (similar to Kaiser's one) to her phone but it doesn't work correctly maybe because of the language of the phone. So does anybody know how to tweak the country settings of HTC Home?

In the windows folder of your wife´s Artemis should be a file named HTCHome.dll.0409.mui and you have to rename it as HTCHome.dll.040B.mui
