Step 1: Stop being lazy and do your research.

If you won't find anything, follow the instructions from my Rom:

aarbiser,
Go the the Wiki page for the Trinity:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...me=HTC_Trinity

Read through this thoroughly before upgrading. The key is to understand how you flash back the ROM you currently have, in case of a problem. Back up everything on your Trinity & storage card before doing anything.

Remember, some of these ROMs don't have all the programs your stock ROM came with. For example, if ROM you flash to doesn't have MSN, which you need, then you'll have to install MSN cab separately, after the ROM flash. Any ROM you flash to is likely to have some issues & no Trinitys have been seen flying or making crop circles after the WM6 upgrade...so be careful with your expectations.

If you aren't sure how to upgrade with these ROMs, wait a litle longer (1-2 months), as HTC will eventually have an upgrade for WM6. The beauty of ROMs on this forum is that they contain many improvements, besides the OS upgrade aspect.

Here's a good step by step site. Its for the Hermes but the idea is almost the same.

I don't want to be harsh, nor flame anyone, but if you don't understand how to flash a ROM, you really ought to wait till official versions are released, because Beta WM6 (or any other WM version for that matter) ROM's will require some 'expert' registry or system fiddling at some point, which needs a fairly good basic understanding of the systems.

Stoopid noobie question:

cant find any instructions for the hard SPL. On the hermes instructions it only has 2 files but the trinity one has 6 files...

enter bootloader.exe
rapitool.exe
ROMupdateutility.exe
RUU_signed.nbh
RUUGetInfo.exe and
RUUResource.dll

.. i followed this on the hermes guide website but this step here is different to the trinity........

which to use first? do i use them all before installing the new WM6 ROM?

Do i need to install the new radio version (GSM 1.41.00.11)? Trying to make so if i need to get it fixed under warranty i can just flash back the Aussie 3 ROM and they will be none the wiser....

Can anyone help?

How about someone writing a step by step guide for those of us who are yet to do this..... everyone had a first time....

thanks
Scott
