Unlock it to SPL 1.2, then try out any of the WM6 WWE stock ROM. Think carefully and beware of the consequence of unlocking to spl3.5, cause it is a way of no return, at least for now and may be a long long time to come.

I love Pizza but I know, Pizza is the end of a looong trail, and you are just in the middle of the beginning :),

If you want to change language or vendor ID, or just to flash ANY rom you like (even an ORIGINAL HTC Sauerkraut version :D ), do you need to change the SPL. In this way your device will became SUPERCID (or just the flashing process jumps over the CID info).

Your ATHENA has ITALIAN LANGUAGE hard coded into the SPL and you can't change it without affecting the SPL (Language id and Vendor id are the CID and SUPERCID means... joker)

Use ATHENA WRAPPER, from OLIPRO (donate if you like) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316846.
ATHENA UNLOCKER is just for SIM unlocking too

After this stage you will have a new SPL called HARDSPL (because it is hard coded, is IN the ROM), and the flashing process will be free for all ROMs. Your SPL will be 1.2

Original ATHENA ROM is a WM5 rom, the UPDATE is a WM6
From HERE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397518 you will find the newest ROM, the German listed is WM6.0 , the other are WM6.1 (no official WM6.1 for athena).

If you choose from that list the AP4 your device will have a newly partioned ROM, called SPL 3.5 and in the next future you can't use neither original HTC ROMs nor cooked 1.2 SPL ROMs. The only advantage in SPL 3.5 is the capability to use AP4 and AP5 (it needs more ROM space)

Happy flashing :)
