problem in loading the custom service in samrtphone? and Extending contact tools menu

problem in loading the custom service in samrtphone

I made myservice for pocketpc WM5.0 its runs successfully in pocketpc by activate service.
I'm using device emulator for pocket pc sdk 5.0.
Now i want to use that service in samrtphone WM 5.0. for this i change the SDK to smartphone and signed
the Myservice.Cab file with "SDKSamplePrivDeveloper.pfx". The cab file installed successfully
but not loaded with the "ActivateService" or "RegisterService" method for smartphone.

    As far as I remember it needs to be signed with trusted privileged certificate. SDK cert would only work if your phone trusts it and of course no production phones would trust SDK cert.

    But Atleast I should have solution to test my application in the emulator.How Can I test my application

    Thanks Alex.

    One part is done that is service is loaded.Now I am checking for my contact menu



  • JazzGeek

    You can not, that's the point of signing. You need to pay phone carrier and/or other signing authority to sign your applications and CABs so they could run on production devices. Please see this for details:

    Then how can i signed it with any trusted privileged certificate

    2,I have a similar issue regarding contacts tool menu creation for smartphone.I installed my cab on pocket pc it installed successfully adds all registry keys and copied the file.After installation I can see my new menu item created in contact tool menu.

    But in smart phone when i installed the cab file although  it installed successfully adds all registry keys and copied the file successfully with no error but new items are not created in the contact  tool menu.

    I am siging the code and cab file with sdk privileged certificates.

    What Could Be the solution of all these problem.



  • Billr17

    The SDK certificate should work for the emulator. Have you signed both module and the cab

    See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/wmsecurity.asp



  • Xiao Feng

    Yah I have signed both the module and cab file.

    I were using sdk privileged certificate.

    But no avail.

    Please could any body can help me
