OK, I can't handle this anymore.

Hello all,

I have been searching through these forums for the past week and a half. I am completely green/noobish when it comes to flashing a phone. This is my first WM phone.

Is there a post for the noobiest of noobs to learn how to do this? From what I have gathered after a week, this is what I have to do:

1. Unlock the phone.

Unfortunatly, this .exe file doesn't work for me.
Verizon HTC Touch Pro 2, bought it 1 week ago.
WM 6.5
Windows XP SP3
ActiveSync is up and running.
Logged in as Administrator
Double click .exe icon and get this:
"Windows cannot access the specified device, Path, or File. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."

2. Unlock a radio? From what I gather, the radio has something to do with the internet connection?

3. Install ROM.

4. Install .cabs desired.

Things I can't not find are:

1. How do I tell what version of Sense I have?
2. No one really speaks of Verizon TP2's, just Sprint, Sprint, Sprint. Are they the same?
3. Can .cabs be installed/added to a phone without having to Unlock it? Like an App?
4. Is there a post somewhere with step by step procedures for noobs?


I'm sure there is more, but just getting frustrated. Can't do a thing with this phone, and getting tired of people telling me I screwed up and should have gotten an iPhone.

Anyway, just needed to rant. Thanks for reading all,
