O2 XDA Orbit 2 changing german rom to english !

[hihallohelpme]

I have a O2 Xda Orbit 2 and it has a German OS (Rom- Version 1.24.207.2 GER) on it. I want to change it to english rom. What do I have to do, What is the safest way, so theres no brick ! Please help ! Thanks !

Just find out the MUI files of the Kaiser (they will help) or may be somebody will give you the orig MUI english files from Cruise and placed into the Windows directory, after that, go to the registry and find the path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\MUI
there just add the dword "0409"="US English"
go to system and there find regional settings > go to language settings
choose US English
reboot the device

I hope it helps

I've just try this solution, and don't work....

a parameter to add there is not an DWORD but an String because in DWORD you can not insert only number.
And where is the regional setting parameter in registry? I've setting italian language in Program- regional setting-Language - Italian, but not in registry..

I've O2 xda orbit 2 german language and I wold like to have italian language, I've an extracted Cruise italian Rom, I've placed all windows file on windows directory in my orbit but don't work...

anyone have any idea?

I have also dug the threads and apparantly there doesnt exist a single working example for this. Theoratically a single "cab" file should do the trick should this be possible, pity not much support on this although it seems an important issue!

I supoposte that only DWORD for change the language systems is SYSLANG=1040 (for italian) It's in Hex value (410 = 0410)

OK, real nice, I dug the posts from qtek_metanol, and I think he is referring to his discussions related to the "Smartphone" Tornado. Well I don't believe what you can do for smart phones can be done to pocket PC. Smart phone comes with built-in support of language change, pocket PC does not!

Although I'm still 100% sure there has to be a less intrusive way than to change the whole ROM just for the language change, at the moment there is no support for this from any "genius." :(

@qtek_metanol: I was reading your posts on the other thread:
"I was trying but I become the warning that the the files can not..."

your native language is German ain't it? :)

No it doesn't, my native language is Spanish, but i live since a long time in Germany and I prefer German as the default language, if you send me the MUI files I would do a cab file for you. Be sure to send all the MUI's. because I don't wanna have to release multiple files for one thing :D
