Hi everyone, I'm new to the Aximsite, this is my first post, but I'm frequently reading the discussions here for a long time. I'm just wondering right now if this procedure would also work with the WM5 upgrade. Have anyone tested this?

Hi,

I have a German X50v with an English WM2003 A05 ROM. Now I bought the German WM5 Update. How can I change back from English to German? I can't find the places where I have to change values. I also don't know the code for German. Can anybody help me please?

Thanks,

Bye, Simon

You want to:-

1. Download the latest German WM2003 ROM and edit it so that it appears to be an English version >A05.
2. Download the latest English WM2003 ROM and replace the image with the one you just edited. Run the upgrade. You'll be running the latest German WM2003 ROM.
3. Upgrade normally to WM5 using the German WM5 upgrade disk.

All the rest of the info you need is in the first post but it might take you a minute to get your head around it.

Edit - I think that's right now.

Read this post several times, and try to understand clearly.

I have WM5 German version A01, and I want to replace it with English WM5 A04. But the img file for WM5 has a diffirent structure. It does not contain sam kind information as it is in 2003 Version. What can I do then?

Can you downgrade to German 2003 then crossflash to English 2003 then upgrade normally to English WM5?

There is no German version of 2003! Only English version can be downgrade!
Now I am dead with German WM5!

I never know that Dell has a German version of WM5. But it is in German when I received my X51v!

With the German version, I have less hope to expecting uppgrading ROM of WM5 which resolves diffirent problems. There is no ROM at all for ROM upgrade in German!

Any expert tells me what to do to replace the ROM with English version?

Help!!!

Dell have been screwing around with their websites

There were two German WM2003 roms available for download :-

German A01 X50v R98969.EXE
German A02 X50v R103216.EXE

I'll see if I can find a link to them anywhere

Edit: I'm not sure about a German downgrade but will have a look

Edit2: Both of the 2003 files are available for download if you search for them but I cant find any WM5 downgrade. Perhaps a phone call to Dell is in order at this point.

OK, I got German A02, and edit the img file so it sounds a much higher version. But then it says: It works only with X50v!!!
