To create more tables for other languages, use the following formula:

a) Download the ROMPAQ file.

(ie: if u want to change the language from English to French, download the French

ROMPAQ).

b) Using Winzip, unpack the ROM update file.

c) HexEdit the .NBF file.

d) Locate the hex value for the Country Code.

(ie: for the French ROMPAQ is ebef).

e) Use Calc.exe in scientific mode (switch to hex) and type the original ROMPAQ

checksum minus the HexSum of the original language (DD for French).

result = ebef - DD

result = EB12 , then your French Table will be as follows:

8.- Save and close the hex edit program.

9.- Rename the .NBF file acording to the correct country name:

ie: To change a 3970 from Spanish to English, rename the file

NK_Windsor21010WWE.nbf to NK_Windsor21010ESP.nbf

10.- Switch to the update utility program and push the update button.

NOTE: I used the above steps to change a 3970 from Spanish to English and

from English to Spanish and to change a 3955 from English to Spanish and from

Spanish to English so, i have not tested the rest of the codes from Tables 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Another way to install a different language ROM in you PDA

iPAQ 3900 series..

1.- Download the latest ROM update for iPAQ 3900 series.

ie: To change a 3970 from Spanish to English, download the latest 3970 English ROM update.

2.- Using Winzip, unpack the ROM update file into a TEMP DIR.

3.- Use a Multi-Port/USB TTY program using the following Port Settings: 8-N-1, Flow Control: NONE, Parity: NONE

and place that program in the same DIR where you unpacked the ROM update.

4.- Put the device in "Serial Mode." To do this, press the POWER button, button 2 and the software reset button at the same time.

A bootloader screen should appear with the words "Serial" in the top center of the screen.

Place the device in the cradle. It should detect if you have USB or Serial and switch to the appropriate connection type.

If you are using USB, the device should have "USB" in the top center of the screen.

5.-Stop Activesync. To do this, check your running processes and kill WCESCOMM.EXE.

6.- RUN the MTTY Program and the first screen that pops up is the serial port configuration screen.

If you have your cradle connected with the USB, use the drop-down box and change the COM port to \\\WCEUSBSH001.

If you don't see this option then you probably didn't kill Activesync

Use the Port settings from the step #3.

This should take you to a terminal screen. Hit <RETURN> a couple of times and you should see the USB prompt.

7.- To update the ROM, from the ROM update files rename the file with the extension .NBK for nk.nb0 (its easier to type short names).

8.- At the terminal screen type "lnb nk.nb0" at the USB prompt. (That means: Load the ROM nk.nb0)

The upload should start and you should see asterisks and some sort of symbol.

It will let you know when it is finished.

The above steps where tested on iPAQs 3900 series ONLY..
