Hi All.

Being a complete Noob with PDA's and stuff, I have carried out several searches trying to find the answers to a basic question, and wondering if anyone can advise (In Laymans Terms) on the following.

I am a brit living in Holland, and am the recent, very proud, owner of an Orange M650 - Artemis, however back to the beginning of the sentence, I am a brit and have little to no comprehension of Dutch.

Can I install/upgrade/fiddle with the phone to make all the screens into english?
Am I able to install WM6 (Dutch or English)?

The device is as it came out of the box, so pressume that it is operator locked and/or locked in some other way.

All help greatfully received (Sorry for the lame questions but a Noob is what I am)

Sorry all, just read the sticky about Upgrading and something about a CID lock.

I will stick with what I have unless someone really has time to walk (I mean crawl) through it.

go get your phone cid unlocked for £20 and then you can install any rom you want!

you'll also see a thread in this forum about upgrading roms on a cid locked (ie your) device... do this at your own risk though!...

How do I know if my device is CID locked or not ?
I know it's not SIM locked.
I have HTC 3300, english version.

Upgrading ROM's is super easy once you get the CID lock. Read through the posts and you will see tons of options for changing. I have been doing this for about 3 weeks now, I am not an expert but I have successfully changed my ROM on my cid unlocked o2 Orbit 5 or 6 times trying different things out. If you need someone to walk you though it, I am sure there are more qualified people, but I would offer my service. I wished to god someone would have offered this to me when I first started figuring this stuff out....
