[Q] flash i780 :s - General Questions and Answers

hello guys,
i have the i780(unlocked), i got it from france, don't speak french that much but my i780 is in french, i read a lot in this forum to check out things about this device, and found out that i can change it to english, i also noticed that my version is really old and needs updating. i have version i780XHHA2 & windows mobile 6.
i really would like to upgrade to windows mobile 6.1 or more and have the english version. i read some posts here about russian roms, E1 english rom but got lost half way through so can someone please lead me through this?
thank you in advance.
(i have windows vista)

old wm6 on i780 orange from spain (no fn+enter or Gand Red key combintion)
I post here even it is to late because I had a problem of a spanish i780 that did not respond to key combintions of hard reset and boot mode. the only way to HR is by using code *2767*...... I forget it lol. But, when I installed an Arabic MUI cab on it the phone can't start so I have no way to Hard reset now since I can't access to dialer no more. and I can't flash by mirage since I can't use fn+Enter on this wm6 orange tweaked rom phone.
The only Solution for me was to download this rom ziddu.com/download/8450774/i780PDXIB1_Upgrader_VISTA.rar and I used wincotroll program from 4shared and samsung xp driver (using windows 7) then I tweaked the rom installer by draging a loop icone from wincontroll (software tweak tab) to the bottom of rom installer and clicked show then an emergency box appeared ... I checked this box (no need to check charger battery or phone connected boxs) and reset the phone or rebooted it. >>>>>>>>>>>> the phone started flashing and horaaaaay I have wm6.1 now and both key combination are working now.
I was able to flash the phone again and again testing for the best rom now I have 6.5 rom that works very very fine for me
NB: I searched the inside and outside of the Web with no results so I applied this tweak as I do to my omnia i900 when facing (incorrect software essage)
I am sure this can help someone else who still have orange wm6 useless rom on his i780.

ROM UPGRADE PROCESS STUCK on 95%

The story: Received an new O2 XDA NEO from Germany. Being portuguese I don't know nothing of german idiom. I dowloded the JAMIN Eng. rom from the FTP and tryed to unstall this rom. With the ROMUpadte utility that comes with the ROM I get an error. With the ROM Update Utility_NOID the process stars and go normally until 95%. Here, after some minutes give me an error saying I can't upagrade with the NBF file.
I was a little passed out thinking that instead a phone I had a brick. Pul out the batery for moments. After I turned on the phone and it shows the tri color scren of bootloader. Ok conect the usb cable again and start the upgrade to the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID. and voila... the process completed without problems.
The weird thing is why my phone doesn't accept the JAMIN rom?
Anyone has an expplanation for that? Thank you
can you tell me wehere i can download a jamin rom ? then i can test it with my o2 xda neo
I upgraded my Neo to jamin rom without a problem. I was using the RomUpdateUtility by machinagod, which you can find in this forum. But now I have switched to RUU_2151327..._DOP_ASIA_WWE too. To me, the new version DOP_ASIA_WWE rom works much better than that jamin. More fast, more effective. The JAMIN always runs out memories and makes the CE-Star chinese input inactive, especially when WiFi used. The DOP_ASIA rom rarely meets such problem.
Upgrade rom
You can only upgrade rom but can not downgrade. So now you are at 2.15
but Jamin is at 2.13.
Hi,
upgraded qtek s200 with RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship.exe, using ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip, which does not check Vendor ID.
No major issues so far. During boot dispays Dopod instead of QTEK .
Besides, few differences I found in voice diler and new program called AutoConfig. Appears, to configure automatic settings for your GSM carrier, but only for ASIAN operators, which is useless to me. No worries, interface still English.
It was mentioned few times in this forum, that you may experience some "delays" during flashing your device - don't panic, don't touch it, just wait for some time, it will finish on its own.
Good luck with upgrades.

My Prophet is dead!!! What can i do? PLZ Help!!!

Hi. Congratulations for your good work!!!
Last week i bought an O2 XDA Neo (used) from Germany. Everything was working ok. The only problem was with the language (German) so i wanted to change the language to English and after that if it was possible to Greek. I thought that the only way to do that was to change its firmware. My phone had the official firmware WM5. I downloaded and installed ActiveSync on computer. Then i synchonised the PC with the phone succesfully. And at last i runned a rom that downloaded from wiki from the prophet forum. It installed succefully but after a restart the phone stucked on a three colour screen. I reinstalled the same rom and another rom but the problem is the same. Nothing works. The phone is dead?
What did wrong? Is it possible to repair this problem? Plz if enyone knows something, i would appreciate it if he replies to this thread.
the good thing is..
your prophet is NOT dead..
simply flash it again..
tri-colour screen is a bootloader mode and in that state you still can flash your neo with RUU ROMs
a prophet is called DEAD ,only if it cannot enter bootloader state
flash it with ORIGINAL ROM..and that should works..
read the instructions before going to WM6 as it needs some steps before simply flashing it

Hi m friends. After hard work i finally made my phone works again. I instaled the oficial rom for prophet (O2 Germany) that founded in another thread. Then it worked fine. Then i hadrspled my devive and finally i installed a WM6 rom caslled evolution.... and it worked fine. But does enyone knows if it is possible to have greek language and greek keypad on my prophet? Thank you for your help in advance.
There is a greek ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323868
It uses the old upgrading method, so you will need to flash the "Part One" ROM first, then don't do anything to the device and then flash the "Part 2".

Problem after upgrade wm6.1 on polaris

Hello all,
I am in crisis situation.
I purchased the touch cruise (polaris) from authorised dealer in the middle east (my polaris is middle east version) came with wm6 SPL 1.28.000. ROM 0.0.415.2 (sorry I had saved the details in one of the files but I guess it got deleted. so I dont remember which ROM version I had)
I wanted to test the diamond TF3d style, so I upgraded. below is the steps I took
1. Hard spl - v2
2. downloaded _HTC Touch Cruise_RUU_Polaris_HTC_WWE_3.13.405.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship.exe
3. installed the same.
4. Installed HTC-CA-Polaris drivers and TF3d.
5. I read somewhere that it works slow and need to upgrade Radio to 1.59.42.23. I did that.
but now my GPS is not working with Garmin also tried TOm TOM which is installed by the WM6.1 upgrade, no luck even the phone is too slow
I want to revert to the original version. please help me find the ROM download and steps to downgrade to original. I can downgrade the SPL to original but need to have the ROM first bcos I dont want my phone to be total dead.
need urgent attention from the experts.
thanks in advance
Niranjan
In my experience downgrading radio is bad thing to do.
When I did it, my signal has weakened radically, and I lost WiFi stability and almost lost BT.
However, hardware was not damaged, so I have normal reception after turning back to the official WM 6.1. So I guess you will need to hack your device again, or wait for newer ROM...
Oh, yeah... I never did hard-SPL...
