I live in Hong Kong and I use the localised P1i here.
Basically it runs the Hong Kong firmware so there's only traditional Chinese and English for menu dialogues. If you want Swedish support, you've got to flash it with XS++ or davinci or something.
In Sony Ericsson Hong Kong (choose english), under product support, they offer language files for the P1i. Not sure if there's Swedish though...

I have now checked SE Hong Kong site and there are two languagepacks that you can download that include Swedish, but it also says that:
"NOTE!
The files are intended for P1i organiser software version: CXC162108 R6D23"
and the other languagepack, which also includes Swedish says:
"NOTE!
The files are intended for P1i organiser software version: CXC162108 R6E30"
How do I know which version the phone that I am buying have?
Gunnut: Could you somehow check and see if your phone is running on either of these two organiser software version?
If I can't manage to find a phone that is running on either of these organizer software versions, is there a way that I somehow can flash the phone to WG1 or some other region and then update the languagepack?
Seems that alot of people prefer the phone region to be WG1? How come? Is it because the firmware is updated more freequently than other regions? What happens to the phone's warranty if I would flash it to for instance WG1?

Guys,
I have finally upgraded to the new firmware. The thing I'm missing after changing CDA to WG-1 is the Wayfinder Navigator download shortcut from the icons. How am I able to put the Wayfinder software again onto my P1? I bought the phone in a bundle with a GPS and Wayfinder Navigator was also in some sort of preinstalled state on my original firmware (/92 Sweden).
Do you know?
Thanks |

Not sure, but I think it just points to http://getwf.com
@bnet:
The d23 was the organiser version in the first firmware, and the e30 was the next. The current firmware is f41. So.. if you buy the p1 now, it'll come with either of the two first versions. And then.. you could just wait with the firmware upgrade until the language pack for f41 is available. (..Just in case the dudes over at SE managed to make the newest firmware available before the language pack..)

You'll have to change the CDA to one where the Wayfinder suite was included (like the sweden one) and update again. It's either this (most recent version of fw but without the customized apps) or that (customized apps but wait a bit longer for firmware) unfortunately.
Isn't it somehow possible to read out the registration information or something from the sweden wayfinder version, download it for the W1 firmware and use that reg info? |

U might have to wait a bit. I haven't updated yet because Blackberry isn't offered for R9J005 yet.
I've checked the CDA and it seems R9J005 is running CDA R6F41, so I guess the language files arn't available so soon...

Regarding Wayfinder I got an answer from their customer service (very nice so far  which I copy paste here. It seems I can download it from that link and then I use my key provided in the box to make it leagal. That sounds good to me, i'll give it try later on... keep you posted.
Dear Customer,
* Enter http://p1.getwf.com from your mobile phone’s web browser, and press OK.
* Confirm your phone model and choose which language you want to install the application in.
* Press “Accept” to start the download of the program, and follow the given instructions.
* Choose where to save the program.
* Once the program is installed you will find a Wayfinder icon in your phone. Press it to open the program.
Once the installation process is completed, you can continue with the activation
Thank you for your interest! |

..I had something like that after the first firmware update. I've no idea what caused it, but it disappeared after I took out and put in the sim- card again (..could just be it worked after picking out and inserting the battery).

The update won't break the network functionality of the phone.
Check your SIM card in another phone to see if its working and try another SIM card in your P1 to see if that works.
If both are working, then I don't know what to tell you apart from to go to the service center or email sony support and ask them |
