Hi Guys,

i am new to flashing Ameo/Advantage/Athena, but am an experianced hardware "tweaker" with Pc's so am not too afraid to mess about a little, having bricked a few GFX cards in my past :) not too mention a few stern looks for the mrs when doing so :D

I need some help, i have just got an Ameo a standard T-mob one, brought 2nd hand, was formatted to factory standard when i got it

Want a hand i have heard from a few in the know that black touch is the way to go?

Is there a simple process to follow, i have looked at the threads above but they are over 50 pages long!?

perhaps just a simple 1.2.3.4... something to point me in the right direction?

Any help i am grateful for, Many thanks in advance

Pete

I did mine last week with no problems. The only thing I would add is;

1. Make sure all your devices Ameo and laptop have a full charge before starting. Loosing power half way is a good way to get a brick.

2. Read, reread and print out the steps so that you can tick them off as you go along.

3. Keep wife, dog, kids etc. out of the way. You do not want to be distracted.

Good luck and enjoy your vastly improved device.

i just have one further query, what is this radio 1.5 i have spotted being mentioned, i assume its not like fm radio :P and is actually reffering the the comms unit in the device, for gps or calls?

is this something i should consider or be thinking about?

Many Thanks

Did mine with no probs too. It is worth adding to the list:

- take out any memory cards
- stop any other programs running after boot - ie firewall/virus checker

It really is improved. The radio mentioned is the internal one. Flash the earlier version of the ROM which includes Radio v1.5, then follow with the later version which doesn't include it

Take a deep breath .....
