Yes, I did that. That means it can be done. But sorry, I forgot exactly how to do it. It was long time ago. I read the instruction somewhere and it was fairly simple and easy. You may search the forum to find it.

Basic problem is during the upgrade process, the English ROM sees the resident ROM is Chinese, it will say wrong language version and refuse to overwrite.

My recollection is during the upgrade process, before clicking upgrade button, go to Windows temporary directory, find the ROM image. Edit the ROM language version number and save it back. The first upgrade will fail and need to redo the upgrade but the second times it will not check the language and complete the upgrade.

There may be some unlocking program that may even make it simplier.

Atom Exec only put out upgrade once so I never have any upgrade to do afterwards so didn't keep track where I read the info.

Ok, since nobody response (no too many people buy AtomExec). Let me tell you what I did and worked but don't ask why because I do remember.

The reason CHT AtomExec cannot flash with English ROM that is normal because all manufactures want to keep tracks of the warranty of their machines and do not want users change the ROM software. Each IMEI number tells which language of the ROM it can use. For example, I am a register user of CHT AtomExec and O2 does not let me download the English ROM and I have to look for the ENG ROM in the intenet.

So each ROM must have something so the machine can tell whether it is the correct language for it. Instead of unlocking the machine, which I do not know how, here is what I did:

I. I opened the CHT ROM with a hex editor. I copy down its ROM number (it is in the first line, very easy).
II. I opened the ENG ROM with a hex editor, I carefully modified its ROM number as exactly like the CHT ROM.
III. I then flashed with the modified ENG ROM. The first time, it will choke. It does not know why the contents of the ROM does not match the ROM number but no harm done. It may or may not give you an error.
IV. Now flashed it again with the original ENG ROM. This time, it will flash with the ENG ROM without complain.

From now on, you can flash with any other ENG ROM, WM5 or WM6!!!

Good Luck!
