Can anyone confirm if there is the option to change language within the Italian ROM?  Then we could all install this debranded ROM.  The ROM's issued by the carriers only have 1 language available but wondered if this option is available in a generic ROM.

As stepw said there are no debranded (generic). In that case there only "Orange" roms (from different countries) are available, so if you want english language you have to download rom from Orange UK, etc.

If you can find any debranded phone (from new) all you need is its IMEI. Then you can download debranded rom from Toshiba website.

The Italian ROM is debranded and install SPB Shell at startup instead of the Orange stuff, but you cannot choose another language.

After ROM is installed or a hard reset is performed, when the phone is at the screen calibration prompt, you can connect via ActiveSync and disable installation of some branding options in the registry.

The list of branding cabs can be found under HKLM\Software\Toshiba\AutoCabInstall, HKLM\Software\Toshiba\CommSetup, HKLM\Software\Toshiba\CertSetup. Remove any entries you don't want to install and then proceed with screen calibration, etc... You can manually install branding cabs later on.

There are certain things that you can't get rid of this way (Orange boot screens) and removing some of the items in the registry may cause other issues, so it may take a few hard resets before you reach perfection.

After hard reset on the calibration screen. connect device to PC open via activesync.
Just put into \windows folder empty file wceload.exe and calibrate your device.

It work for me. Thank to Cotulla. :-D

Good tip, but it gives you less flexibility.
But then again anything can be installed later on manually if need be...

It would be great to compare the Italian Rom and the UK Rom in order to identify and remove the Orange apps. The goal is having a clean English Rom

I realise that it's easy to say and difficult to do but......

One question for stepw: is sddownloader+ able to load only encrypted ROMs (.tsw) or even .bin files?

Sorry Rogerkk, T-01A seems to work a bit differently. We tried a few things with MinhAnh and made some progress, but T-01A still doesn't accept non-Japanese ROMs at this point. If I manage to find a fix, I'll post an updated version. Chances are it will happen once a WM 6.5 update is released for T-01A though.



Thanks a lot for your interesting in help us Stepw,yo're the guy

[tra33372]

I also have T-01A. Now I could unlock it by using sim unlock but the signal is unstable. However, Japanese language is the biggest obstacle for me.
Even though, I am not good in software programing but I am willing to test and give feedbacks when you release a workable one for T-01A.

It accepts .tsw (which it renames to .enc) and .enc files. .bin is not accepted, because  this was not tested. Do you have any .bin ROM images?

I've not tried this yet, but I suspect this would be achieved using a destop Registry Editor, such as CeRegEditor  (explanation page) - download here.

TG01 encryption key is not the same as g910 key, so Cotulla's decoder doesn't work for TG01 ROMs.
Until there's a way to enter download mode on TG01 without SDDL, modifying ROM images is a no-no, there's too much risk. A single error could prevent  custom ROM from booting and SDDL exe can't be ran to reflash it.

I have just one question before trying this on my German TG01. I have already upgraded to the German WM 6.5 I downloaded from the Toshiba website. Can I just rerun the UK version?

thx

[peputinho]

anybody have this problem too?

Peputinho, I'm afraid that you have had that we call SD card corruption. You are from Spain, as me, so  Isuppose that you are still with WM 6.1. Go to some of the corruption memory card threats near here. I'm afraid that this is not your topic..... Good luck

Yes, you can. And if you don't like it, you can go back to German O2 WM 6.5 again.
