Where can I get an english ROM Samsung SGH i718?

Hi all, a freind of mine commited the ultimate sin and paid MORE for a Samsung i718 (WM 5)than I paid for my HTC Hermes...and the OS in CHinese. He's called Samsung HK and TW and neither will help him, anyone know where I can find an English ROM for this device? Are there tools out there to dump the ROM from another samsung? Is he totally boned?
I know it's not the perfecdt place for this question but I can't find anything about moding this phone or any ROM downloads. Thanks in advance to anyone whyo can help me!!

English Please Please Please
Hi Everyone,
Although I didn't actually commit the greatest sin myself, I have one of these phones and now need it in English.
My wife's father sent me one from China. NOWHERE in the system options does it have a place the select English language. This is the only phone I have ever seen from China that doesn't have English! NUTS!
Now, I'm not too savvy with all of the lingo being used on this forum but SURELY there must be a way to install the English version of WM6 onto this phone. Can someone please explain my options to me? I feel useless without this phone in English!
Thanks heaps

There is an english rom for I718 (althrough I718 is a chinese variant of a I710). It called I718ZMGF4 and meant for I718+ (WM6 mod of i718). Works fine on both I710 and I718. Links: PDA part, GSM part. Note: gsm part of firmware must be flashed with special flashing cable (suitable for Samsung D800, D820).

That's AWESOME! Can someone please explain how I would do the installation of the English ROM? Please keep in mind that I am a total noob and have never done this before. The most I have done before is update the firmware for my sony ericsson, but that was using their update service.
If someone could write a little step by step, or even point me to a thread about flashing phones, that would be awesome. I am just afraid I will brick the whole phone.

got the rom, connected via active sync... how does the program work?
detect doesn't detect phone.... please advise

Beginner needs hel rooting N9002

Hello
First of all: Sorry - I do not know wheter I am in the correct thread. I am an absolutely beginner and my thoughts are like a tornado as i read about several hours how to use all thet root and flsah stuff...
I got a Galaxy Note 3 Dual SIM N9002 originally from China - XMas-gift.
Now I have the problem that I will add the German Language and add the Google Play Store.
I need help for:
1. How exactly doi go step by step for rooting the device? I found lots of advices - most of them are to technical for me - and my english is not so well. Therefore i do not understand most of the stuiff.
2. How exactly can I bring Google Play Store on the device?
I know that I have to flash the device. But: Where do I find a firmware which allows the Store and the Language and doesn't kill the Dual SIM?
Thanks for helping me and kind regards.

[Completed] [Q] HELP! Any version of Flashtool shows no items on "Plugins"

Hey guys, i'll try to explain my problem, sorry if you found some redaction fails, because i use to speak spanish, not english.
So, i'm trying to unlock the bootloader of a Xperia X8 following the instructions of this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1549696
I've done almost everything, but, when i have to use de "Flashtool" i have a problem that won't let me continue the work.
I run the program, ok.
Connect the phone, ok.
The program detects the phone, ok.
But, when i click on "Plugins" it shows me no items, totally empty. I thought that was a version's problem, so i downloaded the 0.6.8.0v, the 0.9.18.5, and finally 0.8.0.0 but stills the same problem.
Can someone give me a hand?
I also started to do this after giving it back to an original stock rom (russian).
I don't know what else to do so, please, help me!
