Re: How to create background service for symbian os without icon
There are many ways of creating a service application ( or we can say server). U can create a mdl ( or Dll ) and let it be running in bakcground or load it when they are required.
You can create a application ( app ) and can make it as hidden, so that it will not shown in application list.

But the best way is to create your server as a DLL.

See SDK help on "Application information file source format"

There is on property in ur application information file ( i.e. AIF file )

hidden= KAppNotHidden | KAppIsHidden.

Set it as KAppIsHidden.
