Hi
Before sending app for Symbian signed tests-
Any info regarding these issues would help me:

1) I use the SwEvent Capability for simulating the "End" key in order to hangup an outgoing call (other ways made trouble or needed other capabilities),
Do you think this could cause problems?

2) What are the necessary things to show during installation ? (license agreement is obligatory? other stuff?)

3) I use MBM for background of my view (not scalabale) - should this cause problems?

Thank you very much !

Hi

The first thing might be cause the problem. I think you have inform user this scenario before installation or in terms and conditions of your application, Because user might be confused if his outgoing call is disconnected automatically.

About third : I think if your application have user interface then it suppose to show properly for targeted devices. Any information which is not properly visible to user will cause the problem.

No. You will just have to describe why you need this capability.

2) What are the necessary things to show during installation ? (license agreement is obligatory? other stuff?)

You do not need a license agreement however the user MUST be notified of the following if applicable:
- your application send SMS
- your application connect to the Internet
- your application makes some call
- notify the user of any other potentially billable event

I am not sure whether it is mandatory but it is safer and probably a good idea, notify the user that your application may access his contact information, manage some aspects of calls, etc...

3) I use MBM for background of my view (not scalabale) - should this cause problems?

This is not a problem from SymbianSigned point of view as you generally target a single device for the certification. So, your application just need to work on this device.
That is however not optimal from a user point of view unless you really target a single device.
