 <description>&lt;p&gt;Its not possible to do.&lt;br /&gt;
At least not 100% fail safe, the user could always for example flash it with an upgrade, or reset the phone to factory settings and then re-install your app.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At least not by using only phone based services and ready-made sollutions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The only way I can imagine it to work would be if you created a (pretty advanced, and cumbersome) system that polls a server on the internet if this particular phone IMEI is allowed to run this particular application every time it is started. (would need some advanced cryptography to be secure too)&lt;br /&gt;
No such system exists today though.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What you can do is to make it slightly harder to install, by leaving some marker information behind in the phone, for example a file or another kind of &quot;setting&quot;, that you check the next time it is installed.&lt;br /&gt;
But only &quot;slightly harder&quot;, and will only stop the naive (and the honest) user.&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>   How to set expiry date for a application</title>
 <link>http://www.newlc.com/forum/how-set-expiry-date-application</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I    want to build a application for ex: any(Hello World) application and I need to set the expiry time or date for that application.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So that after the fixed time(epiry time) no body can install or run that application.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please give me proper idea about constructing this code as Iam a beginner in symbian developing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.newlc.com/forum/how-set-expiry-date-application&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
