Hi Srikanth,

For the Developers to test thier application on reference hardware prior to the application being submitted to Symbian Signed. However, without possessing a signed certificate, the application cannot be loaded on the phone for testing. Rather than relying just on the
emulator or a special “all capability” enabled phone for the testing, Symbian will be
providing “Development” certificates, which will be specific phones with IMEI as reference
and allow applications to be tested on standard phones.
Further details are available from http://www.symbiansigned.com/app/page/devcertgeneral.

Hi I'm developing Application for 3rd Edition whic requires to Close Installer Application
through My Application
I Used TApaTask::EndTask("Installer");
And I'm using developer certficate and PowerMngmt Capability
But Installer is not being closed.
From the above tutorial u say
PowerMngmt is System Capability, which is granted only After Symbian Signed,
My Problem is I have to develop Application based on this installer,And
If Application Is working well then I can send it to Symbian Signed,
Exactly I want to Know How Do I get PowerMngmt Capability
To get my Application done so that It can be sent to Symbian Signed.

The Platform Security was introduced from Symbian V9.0, this means proividing security to the user data and software, hardware of the machine by restricted / controlled access to them. So the Symbian Developers requires some privileges to access the platform for their applications developed for the S60 3rd Edition (or UIQ3) devices
