learned a new lesson today. turns out i don't know how to read Chinese and this 500 dollar asus p565 have just become usless to me. anyways does anybody know how to change from chinese to english. I started to google. i'm not that lazy, i just got way to many different answers. so what i have

step 1: its illegal or something and voids the warrenty (i hope not)

step 2: download the new english rom from some site

step 3: save it on your storage card (storage card must be less than 4gb)

step 4. connect to computer active sync show hidden folder and locate file on card and run the .exe

step 5: get some kind of error message locate something and rename it something

step 6: yadda yadda something happens or something then you get like a reboot screen and you use the nav keys to tap on something else

step 7: cool things happen but don't touch nothing untill its done

step 8: ... what?!? where did i mess up try it again?

also i heard you could do regional settings > something> language change> english. but i heard that doesn't work and i can't even read what says what. i even tried typing the words in google translator and looking for similiar symbols but no luck.

now i know alot of people are reading this and thinking this kid is dumb and ignorant, but please understand i do know nothing but i'm willing and trying to learn all this fancy lingo and how to do cool mods and hacking without totally frying my phone (R.I.P. more beloved sprint mogul :D) So if somebody would kindly fill in the gaps for my steps. i would even be flattered if somebody just took the time to read this and laugh behind my back.

Hello,

As i flash my phone a few times, i have my contacts on my sim. Normally I copy the contacts to phone but I'm using MyPhone too, so it downloaded the contacts automatically. Now if i delete my contacts from my SIM, the name isnt displayed when that contact calling(That contact is still in phonebook but not in sim) For example, my mother calls me, Mother--05xxxxxxxxx and if i delete her from SIM its like 05xxxxxxxxx only, just number. Please help me.By the way, in some contacts[1 or 2 not too much] if its not in sim only in phonebook it still shows the name, there isnt problem.I want all of them like this, when i delete from SIM, still show the name from Phone.

Phone:Samsung i900 Omnia

OS:WM 6.5

Version:PDA=DXID1 PHONE=JVHH2(since i cannot update the phone part in vista)

PS.:Sorry for my bad english and my mistakes, i'm 14 years old from turkey:)

As all of you, I've been with pocket pc since my hp 1945. Back then ppc was the most advance mobile os out there. I dreamed of a time they would converge this device with a phone to make the worlds greatest all in one. Then it came , the device that started my addiction with windows mobile phone, the imate jAm. From then on it was an exciting journey as I bought new phones when they cAme out. Each one better than the last and more stable. This journey climaxed when I bought my best pocket pc phone ever.. The htc advAntage. I loved that thing. Huge screen graphic processor, fast CPU , 8 gb HD . But alas my advantage was dropped one too mAny times so it was sold. Not wNting to get the same phone twice I purchased the AT&T tilt, then the xperia. Now for the point of my post. Since the begining to about when the first iPhone 3g came out I'd sAy ppc was very much better than the rest. Now after playing with the 3gs iPhone I can see with this device ppc is now in the dust. It does most things our ppc can do , but most of all more and more developers r writing awesome apps for this device. And because it's made by one company and also very popular there are tons of accessories for it. I mean there were times like with my advantage that I couldn't even get a proper case for it. As for os iPhone is wAaY more stAble, windowS is taking too long. They started this race but R finishing up last with their shotty work and programming. I meaN the only reSon I buy htc products is becUse of this awesome site. That's pretty sad when ur only selling point is a site that has no affilation with u but make ur buggy product useable. So with this post I sAy farewell ppc thank you all the chiefs that made All those custome Roms I've used over the past ten years. I've jumped ship and have bought a 3gs.

Ps xperia was the straw that broke the camels back. Worst ppc phone ever. From case problem to shotty os

[XPERIA X1 General] ZenithUK:
You could summarise the OP into one sentence.

"The iPhone has a swish GUI and is better supported for apps than the Xperia, so I'm getting one."

My response would be,

"I prefer my device to have a keyboard, and while the Xperia isn't perfect, it has a spreadsheet app out of the box... for free."
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
It is not our fault that you cannot configure your device properly. Feel free to buy a featurephone like the iPhail. It is simple, not functional and has crappy hardware and software.

WinMo is for tech savvy people who understand modern tech. iCrap is for the ones who want everything configured and controlled for them. The latter will fall behind modern society, because of lack of understanding how things work.

Read this and pay special attention to the links haha:

[XPERIA X1 General] Hannigan174:
Let's not be Haters

If someone wants to leave WinMo let them go. Maybe when they try iPhone OS they'll realize what they are missing. Perhaps, though, they would be happier with it.

Just because WinMo might be best for us doesn't mean it's best for everyone.

I do have to say, though, that I am confused by the now several threads in the Xperia forum saying that they are leaving for the iPhone. I never saw any in the Kaiser or in the Dev or Q&A forums. I am beginning to think that many of these are simply viral marketing.

EDIT: Perhaps not viral marketing, just users that don't understand customizing/flashing very well. Reviewed some old posts by the originators of these threads.
[XPERIA X1 General] chalid:
Have fun with your iPhone 3GS - seriously :-) No bad feelings here (why shouldn't there be any lol :D).

However, I think you made 2 mistakes here. The first one, was getting an Xperia in the first place. If you now can live without the full qwerty keyboard, you should have gotten a Touch HD. Thats more of a competitor to the iPhone than the Xperia.

The second mistake: You switched when the WM platform finally has come to a point, where almost all new devices feature a WVGA screen, which means, that developers will have less problems to build apps AND WM 6.5 with its marketplace is standing right on the doorstep. The other thing here is, that Microsoft won't be that fussy when it comes to authorising apps to the marketplace.
[XPERIA X1 General] WhyBe:
I personally am not going to jump ship to the iPhone. I'm satisfied with the Xperia, but am really pissed with the problems of the WM ecosystem. No one stop shopping for apps. No music or app downloads straight to the phone (that Handango InHand app was crap!). And, come on guys, customizing a phone and voiding the warranty IS NOT A FEATURE!

I am not even interested in the X2. Hardware alone isn't going to convince me to buy a new phone. It has to have a great ecosystem and UI...period. I'm guessing X3 with WM7 would be my next phone, but if it's crap, then I'm jumping ship to something better (even iPhone 4). My next phone is going to have a really well-designed and clever OS on top of superior hardware. Features should not be half-assed but properly integrated into the whole phone. Good example is Copy and Paste. Many complaints the iPhone didn't have it, but now it's got it and it is very well implemented. Apple didn't just throw some bull**** into their phone to make the feature list longer. My next mobile OS will have to be designed with that same mentality and attention to user-experience.

I'll stick with my X1 for another generation, but next generation, the company with the best designed OS and ecosystem will get my business.
[XPERIA X1 General] Samson711:
Besides the question if the iPhone is the better phone (Everyone has to decide for themselves, for me, the iPhone is definetely lacking some things) i really have to say that somehow i get the impression, that WinMO got stuck.

A few years back, it was the ultimate OS for powerful PPC and later PPCPhones, but that was because it was the only real one. Microsoft just sat back and sold and sold without improving. I mean even the devices 5 years back already had 400 MhZ and were as fast as todays devices and if you take a look at Windows Mobile 2003 SE and Windows Mobile 6.1 you can't see significant changes at first glance. I've had many WinMo Phones throughout the years and i will stick with it for now, because I love Windwos Mobile and all the functionality that comes along with it and appart from a keyboard i am still missing some other things with other phones like the iPhone, but i guess, if Microsoft does not realize that the Phone OS Market is now an open and very competitive one and does not improve their OS within the next year (Speed is a great factor, other OS are way faster) more and more people will come to the point where WinMo is no longer the OS of choice. As for myself, more and more things that "disgusted" me with the first iphone, get lost more and more, as apple improves the whole package. Alright, an iPhone with Keyboard is way off for now, but who knows ;)

Just my two cents =)
[XPERIA X1 General] WhyBe:
If they released an iPhone with a keyboard, it would be game over for the rest of the smartphone industry. Not that I'm an Apple or iPhone fan, but more likely than not, they would completely dominate the smartphone market with a keyboard device and a touch-only device.
[XPERIA X1 General] dadeadman:
The X1 is good, but apps pale in comparison aesthetics wise
[XPERIA X1 General] Samson711:
I think the X1 is really good, it's the best WinMo device i've ever had. There is no real comparable device out there regarding the Hardware.

But right now it looks like this is the climax of Windows Mobile and if this stays like that till the next time i have to get a new device i will be looking seriously into other Phones, because my love to WinMo is not unconditionally, they really need to do something ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] Firefall!:
Word! **** the iPhone.
[XPERIA X1 General] WhyBe:
WinMo and X1 is good enough that I'll wait for WM7 to give it a chance (and I'll put the OFFICIAL WM6.5 on my X1). But after that, I'll have to jump ship to a/the keyboard iPhone or something else if Microsoft and SE doesn't get it's s**t together by next generation of phones (The X3).
[XPERIA X1 General] Razorback73:
I have to agree. I updated my X1 using the SE update service to R3A and now get regular crashes. I'm trying to find away to roll back but not having any luck. As mentioned before, cooking your ROM is all well and good to improve your phone, but it voids your warranty and shouldn't be needed. Lazysoft should start investing some of their vast mountain of money into programmers who can produce a stable, fast and easily customizable OS. As Apple slowly realise their mistakes with the iPhone and introduce firmware upgrades to compensate WM is going nowhere and offering nothing new or improved. As soon as iPhone is capable of everything other phones are, it's game over for WM.

[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
Keyboard will not be a substitute for all the features it lacks.

Agreed, but not 100%. Function beats aesthetics any day. WinMo has cool looking apps as well.

I thought the same thing. Maybe a Mod can drop by and tell us if we are right?

I had an iFail for a month (back in the 2G when you could jailbreak without contract)

I am happy I don't have it any more

Crappy keyboard, with only qwerty, no 3rd party keyboard support, apps were alright, nothing incredible, no real bluetooth (A2DP, tethering etc) and no hardware keyboard, hardware was mediocre at best and the camera sucked

Took them 2 years to sort out some of those issues, hardware/camera still suck and the apps.....lets just say I wouldn't take a lot of them if you paid me, not to mention being forced to use iTuneDeaf, I'll stick to my media players that support OGG thanks.
[XPERIA X1 General] poetryrocksalot:
I am quite impressed with the iPhone 3GS, I do not understand how they can make the MP3 player so remarkably fast compared to any windows mobile mp3 program + phone. I know capacitive screen takes away the need to apply pressure but the iPhone OS looks as if it takes alot of processing power and yet 600 Megahertz is almost the same as 528 and yet iphone is blazing fast.

The same also applies to the Ipod Touch which has a 400 mhz processor.

I am just so discontented that the iPhone os is not good for automated apps and modification apps. If it had those features + a true file system than I would consider.

This is the reason why all iphones and ipod touch have mostly games and games and games, because it can only support certain types of foreground apps (since the Mac OS isn't designed for background apps)

I'll keep trying, but I'm not an expert with mobile phones like some people here are. The weird thing is that I didn't know you can change something on the phone that will always be on there. without a rom update.

(copilot did obviously)

So that's good but also a bit scary news, that with only a installation you can change the ROM. (well it's news for me)

hi, if copilot is preinstalled in your phone, you cannot uninstall it unless you flash your phone with a new rom (without preinstalled copilot). better wait for HDSPL in order to flash other customized roms.

[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
Hello out there,

finally I arrived thinking about customizing my standard-HD-Config.

I'm now wondering about possibilities coming along with a cooked ROM like Duttys:

Is it faster than the normal ROM? Does it make sense to take these efforts to change the ROM? What are your experiences?

Moreover, what advantages do I have when using an updated manila-version? Faster, less problematic, more comfortable? What are your experiences?

And finally: can I use the Manila Editor without a cooked ROM?

Thanks for your answers! :)
[Touch HD General] Kristaps-K9-Lv:
the answer is yes to all of your questions!!!! :D

Yes almost every rom made by rom chefs is faster than stock rom, by tests it sometimes may seem slower but in real life use its much faster!!! less hangs, more speed

updated manila version- well everyone uses it because its more comfortable - calendar tab & settings in manila & their finger friendly (like- to set alarm you dont need stylus but only your fingers)

Yes you can use manila editor with a stock manila (just make sure you choose the right home layout in editor!! )

When I started to flash roms there wasnt any new manila, only the stock one, but roms were a lot faster than stock ones---- now there are new manilas and the roms have been tweaked so they are a lot & a lot more faster than stock roms!! :D :D
[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
Hey Kristaps,

thx for the answer.

Are there any ROMs being recommended by you? Are there ROMs with new Manila Versions (TF3D 2.0 / 2.5)? And: are there Manila not based on TF3D you can recommend?
[Touch HD General] Kristaps-K9-Lv:
well I cant recomend, cuz it can hurt some rom chef feelings :D :D

but I suggest you get your device a Hard-SPL and flash some roms and see which one is the fastest -- I flash one rom, get bored of it, flash another, then I think that the previous rom was faster and whait for a new version of it!! :D

as for roms with TF3D 2.... there are a lot of them just open a thread for a rom and find the manila version in the threads first page -- Rom chefs usualy post manila info in first few posts!!!

not based on TF3D --- I dont really know, but I think that WM6.5 Roms have a different UI --- but you can always turn off manila and install a different UI like SPB mobile shell (I like TF3D moore!!! )
[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
Understand that, perhaps you could recommend via message if you want to!

Concerning HSPL: I don't really understand what this is? Do I have to change my HSPL before flashing?
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
A lot of roms out there worth recommending but this depends on what you are looking for, i.e. WM6.1 or 6.5. A Lite or Heavy rom (i.e. amount of software on rom) etc etc. Best advice is to read up on each and install them and make your own opinion on each.

Read this guide on how to flash roms

As for manilla versions. At the start of each rom thread it will give you this information. Most new roms are based on either manila V2.0 or V2.1. V2.5 hasn't just come out yet on any roms, though I know a number of cooks are working on them for new roms.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
You will need HSPL or USPL on device before you can flash any cooked rom.

The difference between USPL and HSPL:

HSPL is an user-modified SPL that you have to flash to your phone. It overwrites the existing SPL on your device with a "hacked" one so to say. It allows you to bypass the HTC certificate check and flash unsigned or CID-mismatching roms to your phone. You only have to flash it once and then you can flash roms anytime.

USPL is a temporary solution. It takes advantage of an exploit in the existing SPL and then loads a modified one to memory, effectively allowing the same thing as HSPL. However, since this is only memory-resident you have to do it each time you want to flash unsigned or CID-mismatching roms to your phone, because this exploited state is lost upon reboot. With USPL you must still have the right version of the HTC SPL that is compatible with the rom you want to use.

Use this guide to help you
