Member: 934368 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | HTC P3450 help needed I have just taken out a 18 month contract with orange spain and have been given a HTC P3450. I didnt realise that the phone is all in Spanish. Can anyone help me change the language to English. I know i cannot do this with the phones own settings and from what i have read on this forum i need to replace the "rom" with an english one. I am a total beginner when it comes to doing something like this so i need step by step instructions in plain english please. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Mark |

If you are a total beginner than it is a bad idea start to flash your own new elf,I think. Why? You lose warranty. If something wrong,you have an expensive paperweight and a 18 month contract(without phone). Easy to kill,hard to fix(even for trained technicians). My opinion: Try to deal with the customer service,if succeed,then your pda has english menu and warranty. If they don't do it,then ask someone in a shop.It cost some money,but more chance to a working device.(warranty lost in this case too) If you decide you try to do this,then we help you,but WE HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE,SORRY!

Member: 934368 Status: Offline Thanks Meter: 0 | Hi Just tried downloading your software onto my phone and it looked like it was going well until it asked me to press send when the message came up asking if the software was from a trusted source. I didnt know where the send button was so i pressed the green telephone button and now it seems as if the phone as been reset to factory default. Any advice? Thanks Mark |
