Change Language To English

Hi

This is my first post , so I would like to say Hello to everyone first.

I have axim X51 416mHz running windows mobile 5 with German rom V04. I am using ActiveSync V4.5

Tried to change the language by Downloading the latest English rom (V12), but the program says that is is not compatible.

Reading through some of the other threads, I believe that you have to edit the rom file with a hexeditor before it will work.

Do not want to brick the device ,so any help would be appreciated. If there is a simpler way all the better :-)

Thanks

Mo....

Thanks for the reply.

Reading through the post it seems like this method is only for the X30 series.
Also it uses the Sd card(which I don't have) to perform the update.

Is there a tutorial for a newbee for the X51.

Could someone please tell me which lines have to be changed in the English file such that it has the german header. The two files which Iam using are :

English V12 : AximX51_WM5_A12EN.IMG

German V04 : AximX51_WM5_A04DE.IMG

It is for a X51 415hz (Trying to change from german to english)

I have compared the two files and they are the same for the first 1000 entries. Someone mentioned in another thread that it is the first 100 bytes.

Any help will be much appreciated.
