View Chinese Characters on Windows Mobile 6 (WM6)

Many Windows Mobile 6 phones don’t come bundled with any way to view chinese characters in SMS’s, MP3 files and websites.

Here’s a solution that has worked on the Samsung SGH-i780 running Windows Mobile 6 (WM6).

  1. Download sunglobe.cab. This provides the fonts and other patches to enable chinese character viewing on your phone.
  2. Copy it to your phone and install it by clicking on the .cab file using File Explorer.
  3. Soft-reset your phone. The easiest way would be to power-on/power-off the phone.
  4. You should be able to read chinese characters on your phone.
