I just bought a gh1 off ebay and the seller said it was already hacked. I just hacked it again using Matt's great video walkthrough.

The hack went fine, but the camera is now in Japanese!!!!!!!!!!!!

How do I get it back to English?!

I selected "all Interface Languages" and it said you can select any supported language via normal language menu.

But how do I do that exactly?

MANY THANKS
 
fair enough...ha. not up to date with latest ptools, just going by what i see on the old v3.40 =) have never needed to use that function.
 
I don't want this to sound like criticism, but for anybody reading this I'd like to re-iterate a point I've made a couple times. In my humble opinion, when you hack your GH1... I'd suggest you only select what you want/need to hack in order to get the cam to perform to your needs.

If you don't need your firmware changed for other languages I wouldn't hack that function only because you can. All you're "gaining" is making it possible for your cam to get in a state where you can't understand the menu.

Don't be fooled by the Rosetta Stone language ads... it's not likely that you're going to meet a Swedish swimsuit model who you ask to take a picture, she sees the Swedish menu, and is then so impressed that the two of you elope in Vegas.

That's not going to happen with a Geisha either :)

:D Maybe he bought a Japanese model off eBay? That's the main reason I'll be hacking my new "red" GH1...so that I can get the menu in English.
 
ha...a bus load of swedish models maybe.

well his original posts suggests he had english to start off with but now has japanese.
