New Y-Browser pkg file

I just made minor updates to pkg file provided, as I noticed that the Y-Browser has been updated to use .mif instead of .mbm

The Y-Browser is available here: Y_Browser_088_0_3rdEd.SIS

And the updated pkg is here: ybrowser088.pkg

Remember that the .pkg file is not compatible with standard distribution of Y-Browser, so you need to uninstall it first.

Even if you are not a proud owner of a firmware modifiable device, you still might want to use Y-Browser for development aid.

If you have a legitimate AllFiles (and the less sensitive ones) capable developer certificate, you can modify Y-Browser (as explained before) and sign it with your own developer certificate. The result is a tremendous help in debugging installation etc. problems and modifying configuration files.

Joke of the week

Here's a "nice" story about Symbian Signed from a fellow developer:

Our application has a disclaimer statement on first startup - required by the Symbian Signed, because we are sending SMS messages. First few rounds of Symbian Signed passed well, but now we FAILED:

The disclaimer statement is not shown again if the user kills application using taskmanager while the disclaimer statement is on screen.

We have implemented the disclaimer as a note which is shown when our configuration settings are not found. But, as we start application, the engine writes the missing settings file - so next time it won't get shown.

Now we have to create another file just to get this "problem" fixed! Total B.S! [Note to self - remember to add into backup]

And congrats for FCA00000 for his great platform security discoveries on TRK! TRK is one application that would never get signed by Symbian Signed, just try starting debug and (accidentally) disconnect the USB cable ;)
