Hi,

For showing your application in the application view you should have an .rsc file.... you have to make entry for both your .app and .rsc file in the .pkg file.... and both of them should be placed in a directory whose name should be same as that of your .app file...

If you can post ur .pkg file entry then we can be more accurate in answering you...

Re: steps for making helloworld.sis file
You have to provide the following code... so that the device can identify it as a compatible type..

Code:
; Platform ID code required for recognition by a compatible device at installation time
(0x101F6F88), 0, 0, 0, {"Series60ProductID"}

check the following link for UIDs

Re: steps for making helloworld.sis file

Sorry for troubling you again,

  I installed helloworld.sis in my nokia 7650 when i run the application it is showing system error and closed immediately,

i built app using the command

abld build armi urel

and selected the app file from "\7.0s\Series60_v21\Epoc32\release\armi\urel"

and the rsc file from "\7.0s\Series60_v21\Epoc32\release\wins\udeb\z\system\apps\HELLOWORLD"

i plcaed both these files in onefolder and i created pkg file as you said.
using SISAR i created sis file and ported the sis file in my nokia 7650 mobile. it is installed normally, and icon is displayed in the list. but when i selct the helloworld icon it gave "system Error" can you help in this regard please.

Re: steps for making helloworld.sis file
You should download SDK for Symbian 6.1... because Nokia 7650 doesn't support 7.0s... I think its the oldest symbian phone.... So latest OS won't work on that phone.... So try SDK 1.2
