Doesn't work with T-Mobile Dash

I just recently heard of this problem from another user. It's a bug in your particular JVM that causes this, care to try a workaround we've developed? Let me know if you're interested.

Yes, I'm very interested. Let me know what I can do.

Thanks.

Send me an email to chris@eqo.com and I'll send you the files you need.

Just following up on the forum in case anyone else is curious...

Chris was helpful and incredibly responsive (seriously, what an amazing level of support for a beta product) but unfortunately the files he sent did not get EQO Mobile working on my T-Mobile Dash phone.

It's too bad because this seems like a great piece of software. I'm still looking for a good IM client that supports Yahoo, MSN, Skype, Jabber, etc. The ability to use Skype VOIP with my WiFi capable phone would be especially nice.

Maybe this little plug will help spur the developers at EQO to work harder on a WM5 Smartphone (non JVM) version. Come on, you don't really need to sleep, do you?

Thanks again, Chris.

No, no, sleep is for chumps. It'll take us some time, but there will be a WM version of EQO Mobile someday. In the mean time, maybe T-Mobile will release a JVM update? Anyway, it's a shame EQO Mobile doesn't work, seems like quite a small issue.

Are there any updates or workarounds as of yet? Thanks for the update.

I'm sorry to say I haven't found anything yet:( I've got my eyes open, but I can't devote my workdays to this cause. Anybody out there know anything?

Just tried on my dash, got some of the stuff working but I couldn't get teh aim to work. The google talk seemed to work. What is the problem with the java on the dash. Can this be solved by somehow downloading a different java midlet. Hope we can solve this issue. Thanks

To my knowledge so far, it seems that the JVM (one we have no experience with) has some trouble with the contact lists. You can see your Google Talk contacts? How many contacts do you have? Are you able to chat with any of your contacts at all?

FYI, I decided to try this after installing the new t-mobile ROM and the same error occurs.

We are developing a Windows based version of EQO Mobile that should work on the Dash. This version should be ready soon. Please be patient!
