First, cut out the "PLSSSSSS REPLYYYYYY" junk. We volunteer our time here, so begging like that is fairly rude.
Second, we can't "guide you", since you don't give an error message. We need more than "something like that", before you can be "guided". If you typed what you posted, ("gedit/etc/wvdial.conf"), it won't work. Needs to be "gedit /etc/wvdial.conf"...a space after gedit. The first command you posted too, didn't have a space, which is probably why it died as well. Your modem was detected, and the wvdial.conf file build was attempted...but you need to be root to run it, which you weren't, that's why you got the "permission denied" error.

Re-run the wvdialconf command as root.
