So, as I see there is many newbees here without experience in ROM flashing. Some of them need just ROM in another language.
Because there is really no simple guide for all who wants to flash their prophet to get at least WM 5.0 WWE (or other language) I will write my experience (this doesnt mean I can solve al problem!!!!, cos´in flashing about 50 devices already I really had no problems-just followed instrucions from this forum).
If you have a Prophet (S200, XDA Neo etc) and want ENG WM 5.0 ROM just follow next few steps, and it should works
1. Determine do you have G3 or G4 model (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=prophet_g3g4_how)
2. Download and install ActiveSync 4.5 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9e641c34-6f7f-404d-a04b-dc09f8141141&displaylang=en)
3. Download ROM (my suggestion PVTemp (http://www.v-dog.net/XDA/PVTemp.zip)) and unzip somewhere on desktop
4. If your device is locked-> unlock it using lokiwiz (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Unlock_Sim)
5. Connect device to PC ( running WIN XP suggested) and sign as a GUEST!
6. Disconnect and go to bootloader mode -pres COMM button and after that soft reset with pen, relise pen in few seconds and your screen should show RGB colors. DEVICE BATTERY MUST BE ABOVE 50%!
7. Connect your PDA on PC (it will show USB on screen, down left)
8. Go to directorx and run ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe (if its G4) or ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe (if its G3)
9. Follow instrucions on PC screen
10. After some time (10min) PDA should finish and do a restart-it usualy stuck on 0% and 85%, but dont panic and wait, it sould continue!!
11. Enjoy new ROM!
That is it for now. I hope it will help, if I found out something I will edit the post, and at the end:
YOU CAN DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RESPONSABILITY;DO NOT CONSIDER ME RESPOSIBLE IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG.
Do as I do- read as many posts as you can considering flash and upgrade!!!
If someone want to add oppinion or suggestion (or just link to mentioned software) it will be great of course!
Also, if admin have a better idea (maybe to edit and stick post somewhere) it will be the best solution!!
Some solution from wiki:
If during an upgrade your Prophet fails to start properly or can only enter bootloader! (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_recovery)
Hard reset (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Hardreset_bootloader)
