I would like to hook up additional languages to the Dash. On the Tornado-based phones and the StrTrk, it was possible by adding the T9[Language]Ldb.dll to the \Windows folder and making a couple of registry changes. Since Dash uses a different keyboard layout, and xt9 instead of t9, that approach doesn't work.

Does anyone know how this could be done? Looks like all registry settings are under \HKLM\Software\Tegic.

I have done that with the SDA Application Unlock tool - just google it up. Works both on the stock WM5 and test WM6 T-Mobile builds.

When I asked this question at spv-developers, one of the moderators replied that the SPV Services tool doesn't work with StrTrk yet.

Unlocking at imei-check.com was easy and painless. I'm not sorry for the $38 I paid.

I had the same problem and found that if you can add a voice tag to a program without a problem. Also, it does sometimes work if you add the voice tag to the contact through "Add Speed Dial" menu option (it asks for an optional voice tag also).

I have an unlocked Cingular 3125. I hooked up the Russian T9 dll and everything works perfectly fine - input, contact search - except for the SMS messages.

That is, when I compose a message in Russian, it looks fine, but the message arrives completely unreadable - all text except punctuation comes across as question marks (?).

I tried changing LCID's under HKML\nls to 1251 (windows cyrillic) or 866 (DOS Russian unicode) - all in vain.

Ideas?

I finally used the imei-check.co.uk - it costs $38, but unlocks both SIM and CID.

Actually, I called T-Mo's CS and asked whether they had anything similar to Cingular 3125 (strtrk) in the pipeline, and the answer was no. So I ended up getting a Cingular 3125 and unlocking it.

It is a feature, which was introduced in SP5m / QTek 8100 devices. Clearly they're keeping this behavior.

Does anyone know if it is possible to unlock the 3125 with the SPV-Services tool? Or are there other options?

When I follow your guide, the movie gets recoded into NeroVision (MP4) format, which I can't play with TCMP - it gives me an error message stating that MP4 support has been removed due to IP conflicts or something like that. Am I doing something wrong?

Where can I get the new ROM? I am in the US and got my phone from expansys - therefore I cannot get onto myqtek.com because of the IMEI number not matching their stock. There's a direct link to the 8310 ROM in another thread; could you post a direct link to the 8300 ROM?

I also wonder if someone had a chance to compare the Qtek 2.x ROM to the one iMate released a couple of months ago.

shadamehr, is the updated ROM a Qtek one or i-mate SP5m one? If it is Qtek, where could I get it?

Thanks!!
