It means breaking your phone beyond repair. If you need the steps, obviously you didn't read the WMExperts link posted as the first post in this thread as it gives you the step by step instructions you need.

Someone help? What do you expect someone to do? If you're afraid of "bricking" your phone, then this obviously isn't something you should try.

However, if you're adventurous and wouldn't mind buying a new phone if you truly do f up the phone, then go for it.

I've flashed my 700wx with a custom WM 5 ROM with no issues.

Mine worked perfect. If the internet will not connect, try a soft reset and then try a different url

I'm noticing that when I try a page that has a lot to load it freezes up and bogs way down and then when I try to end the task its like a hassle. ??????

Did you load the full version? There have been some IE issues with that version, I am running Ebag's Trimmed WM6 ROM and I haven't had any problems.

Another quick stability report:

I have push mail set up and I have had issues with push mail trying to sign on. At time I have what I call Sh** Storms at work where an issue will come up on a project and I get a call and I have to coordinate getting my installer, customer, and future owner of the equipment on the same page at the same time. While I am doing this I have 5 to 15 people waiting for an answer. So I have to make 3,4,5 phone calls back to back as fast as possible. I have had my 700wx cancel my attempt at making a call to sign on to data trying to update the push mail. I have changed my push settings to every 15 minutes for now until I can get this figured out.

i was able to fix the internet problem by changing the default home page. there is some thing WM6 does not like about m.google.com another thing that i found with the full one is that there is a date and time where the SPRINT name was. thats ok for most but i use alarms alot and like having the date on the today screen. when i added the date to the today screen i had two date's. and it was driving me crazy. i found there was a program in the startup folder called "cdate" and after deleting it and a soft reset it want back to only the one date.
