I have, but i cant seem to find what im after.
PS
I am a complete novice with this phone....a virgin.

In all honesty, you really should spend a couple of weeks reading the forums before you flash your phone.
If you don't then I can see your next thread will be cursing at us because we didn't tell you properly and now you've bricked your phone.
The "Wizard Upgrading" Forum contains more information than you will need.
Search for "CID Unlocking" that would be a good start.

Dude, read, read, read. Then read some more.
I've been reading for weeks and just flashed mine for the 1st time 3 days ago. So far all is PERFECT. So much better.
It will be all good. Make sure you back your sh*t up!!!!

Whats flashing?

I believe flashing is the inappropriate exposure of privates - I don't mean the military kind. OF course it is also referred to the process of updating the ROM of an electronic device.

Thanks guys, im gonna do that. Once again thanks.

Which "that" are you referring to?
1. Exposing your privates in a not so private manner.
2. Flash a Rom onto your Device.
3. Read, read and then read a bit more until you understand what you want to do.

^^^ lol. Im gonna do a search and read more, that's what i meant.

WM6 Rom Download from HTC site

I know that you can get the HTC download original of the new WM6 for the Athena/Ameo/Advantage. I tried to but it keeps asking me for my IEMI number. I put it in and it saids go to your network provider!! The [email protected]@ts at T-Mobile are not going to do this upgrade as they feel the money provided would be for better use on new projects. I want to get the new version but not a made up one even though i have tried the ones on here and they work very well. But i would like a copy of the all singing all dancing version if someone has this???
Death to T-Mobile!!!!!!!!
pardon me!

the new HTC website for asia is
http://www.asia.htc.com/asia/index.html
and you should be able to download the WM6 SEA version from Dopod with this link
http://210.64.124.194/download/U1000_SEA_ENG_WM6_Upgrade_20070727.zip
but if you're interested on the other asian versions, you may want to search the forum, some users had posted the other links

Hi, will this work on unlocked T-Mobile Ameo? Super CID?
Want to get the full version of wm6 with VOIP components.
Cheers in advance

If you unlocked fully using Olipro's unlocker, then definitely Yes!

Ooh err Missus!
The problem with search is that you have to be quite precise to get the results. I did actually use the search facility, but can you describe to me exactly what to search for in this case?
And what exactly do you mean when you say "All your questions are answered many times before?"
Seems to me like you should stay off help forums if you don't want to give help.

:s I had all the same questions, took some time to read and voila there were my answers... Lazy people like you clutter up forums like this so it's harder to find posts with "real" content...
And yes I want to give help to anyone but not if the answers are even mentioned in sticky posts..
Another thing, if you have problems to find answers to such simple questions why are you even going to flash your device?? What if it goes wrong?
(I don't want to bash you or anything like that, but in my opinion there are to many people posting questions without RTFF)

haha, you joined this forum this month, and you think you can undestand it all?
I have been here a little while..I still get surprised with what I can find on this forum.
If I want to learn something new, I spend a great deal of hours trying to find something I can use, and when I find something, I spend alot of time reading up on it, searching even more in the same topic.
All in all. The wiki is not perfect, the forum is not perfect, but in my oppinion, its dam close. I know a bunch of paysites that provides alot less info then you find here.
We are a bunch of ppl who love what we are doing, but demanding more and more and more is not the way to do it.
And the funny thing here is: Imagine if you got all the answers, and are happy with it
Imagine then...In a few days, another guy ask the same question, ofcourse you help him....and then, in a few days, another thread is started with similar questions. and so on...
Then you start thinking; hmmm, maybe we should make a sticky with this info, so that the noobs dont ask so many times, I will make it easy for them.
So there..you got a sticky with the topic, and alot of good answers (now you have become a more experienced user, uyou are getting good with the terms used here, you know what stuff means, like in.ex RUU, ROM, Hard-SPL etc..)
And again, you are happy to help ppl out, you start using the language used on this forum, you use the knowlege you have mastered in some degree.
And your sticky is full of wisdom and knowlege.
But...after 50 guys have asked the same question (in many diffrent ways, nice, begging, cursing, hateful and so on) you start thinking:
Dam, will those huys never learn to read? Hell, I have given them everything I know, the best way I can.
You are starting to become lazy with posting in your sticky, cause you have done so before, so many times...even on pm (private messages) ppl are asking for personal guidence, and they need it now (and your girlfriend is waiting in the bedroom, or dinner is ready, or you need to go to work, or you have damn much stuff you need to fix with the latest w/e, and are quite finished with that old ****, cause you have moved way past that stage long time ago )
And suddenly you find yourself writing something like I am writing now...

OK. we will change ALL...we will make it like in other forums...a "How 2 post" so that EVERY post looks the same...so that noob can follow...
BUT YOU check ALL NEW post if they are posted the right way.
hahahahahahaahaha
NO man. IF you cannnot follow the instructions in the threads...DO NOT FLASH!!!
I spent 1 year ONLY READING before flashing my first rom!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO don´t come here with 5 posts and tell us how to do our job

Well i dont wish to be this forum like any other "plx crack this phorumzz", i think its just as it should be.
besides, when i started flashing my htc devices, it took me 10 mins to find xda-dev's, and another 30 min to figure out what buttons to press to get the stuff i wanted to have.
so dont tell us its too difficult - if youre not smart enough its not our concern.
use google for other forums if youre not pleased with the offers in here.

i believe that comment was because this has been addressed a LOT!! when new users ask questions without doing a little research on their own first people are less likely to help you in this forum. just a heads up for next time. good luck finding the information you need and next time try to spend a little time reading previous posts to find answers first. take care

The reasons why people less likely to help are
1) they don't really have enough or reliable information to give you an exact answer.
2)It is angry when you answer question like this: 1000times
are you a boy?yes
what is your name?noob
are you a boy?yes
what is your name?noob
are you a male?yes
what is your first name?freaking
you sure you are a boy?yes
what is your name again? freaking noob.......

There's a reason Google and the forum search function exist. Find them yourself. If you ever plan on coming on these forums in the future, the simple advice of searching will help you A LOT.

just a point of interest...the search function has been down for the past few days. certainly was when you wrote this post and continues to be unavailable at the time of my post now.

I'm certain it worked 2 days ago, as I only noticed it was down yesterday and I use it all the time, and as of now I'm able to make a search. Plus, Google is always available. The post might have sounded harsh but it's genuinely the best general advice you could possibly give. If you have a problem, chances are that the solution is out there, and it's unlikely that you're the only one with it. Guides though are stupidly easy to come by, so there's no point someone rewriting a guide if it's already out there. Plus, doing it yourself genuinely gives a feeling of accomplishment

You are *certainly* incorrect. The search function was down when you posted that "advice" and you failing to notice it changes nothing about the fact that it wasn't working when you chastised someone to use it.
If one doesn't know the correct terms to search for, or the English language well enough to search with, then telling someone to use google (do you honestly think that people don't know how to search or that google exists? clearly you telling them to "google" is not new information) is going to be useless "advice".
Being harsh or rude without any additional assistance is neither helpful nor desirable behavior. If you want to be helpful, post the appropriate links and *then* suggest the user to the search function.
Regardless, I'm not going to debate this.

Hmm, I'm now not so sure whether I was right about the search function being down since you seem so convinced that it wasn't, but searching is by far the best thing he can do and you know it. I really CBA to argue this now, but you'd be absolutely amazed at the number of people who don't search before posting. Just see how many people ask the questions 'how do I flash Android to my HD2' or 'what is the best ROM' without looking at the popup suggestions or googling it first. About your last point about being helpful etc., telling someone to search is helpful in its own right. It will save them a lot of trouble, time and getting flamed in the future.
