hi everyone,

First off im doing this for my friend, i dont currently own the dash but from messing with it for a while.. im glad i got the mda.. because nothing works for me with it.. but maybe someone could help.

Im just trying to put a divx player on it. thats all. I tryed tcmp and a bunch of other players but i always get that message that states not for this device...

Am i doing something wrong? it is wm5.0 so i dont see why this doesnt work..

thanks!

are you sure you're using the pocket pc version and not the smartphone version?
that's most likely the problem. make sure you're trying to install the right version -- ppc.

Is your Dash application unlocked ?

not overly familiar w/ how tmobile configures the Dash before it is sent out to users...but typically, WM devices are 'application' locked by the carrier (and sometimes by HTC) before they are sent out. most HTC devices can be unlocked using a program called SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe, but I'm not sure if it'll work on the Dash.

I'm sure some other Dash / HTC S620 users can confirm this one way or another, but if Tmo app locks their devices (which they did w/ the SDA and MDA), then you will have to app unlock it before certain programs will install.

Only digitally signed apps will install on an app locked device. TCPMP is probably not signed...don't quote me on that.
