signing of symbian app,is there any way now?

Question

Since nokia doesn't sign symbian apps any more,is there any alternative to sign app for symbian?

may be some behind the scene hack or bypass?

Answer 1

Officially, you could of course continue using the developer certificates you might have, and if they are expired, the device time might be needed to be adjusted for the installation time.

Then also the self-signing works just as it used to. For any new certificates or signings, unfortunately there are no official help available.

Answer 2

symbiansigned.com and cer.opda.cn are dead, don't even mind getting developer certificates - just hack your phone, no way to do this otherwise nowadays:

This works great, just try setting your phone Date & Time to somewhere about 2010-2012 when installing apps until it clicks. After hacking phone you won't need to do this anymore.

Answer 3

You can use this app to sign Symbian apps.
The signing process is fail-able but the self-signing works perfectly.
