How to install unsigned sis ( NO PERM HACK )

[porselinaheart]

Ok guys we've come up with an even easier way of signing using the Mobile Signer app from Leftup :

save the sis file on memory card, e.g. E:\crazy.sis

1)Install signsis app from leftup . Get it here : SignSis.rar

3)Download this file : http://fca00000.googlepages.com/cert.rar

4)Transfer the 00000001 file to c:\resource\swicertstore\dat\ if the folders are not there create them and put the file in it

5)Rename the file gensign.cert to cer.cert and the file gensign.key to key.key ( these are inside the downloaded cert.rar )

6)Transfer these files to c:\private\EC696702 or e:\private\EC696702 if you installed mobile signer to ur memory card

7) Open Mobilesigner, and select .sis file ( press the key in the middle of your keypad to do this )

8)Select 'Options>>Selfsign'

9)App will be signed.

10)Run signed sis to install . e.g. crazy.sis is now called crazy.sisx after being signed.

11)Everytime you reboot your phone, the OS will 'modify' the 00000001 file, so if you reboot it has to be replaced with the original one provided in cert.rar before you can sign the app again.

WARNING DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE DURING THE PROCESS, OR THE 00000001 FILE WILL GET BUGGERED BY YOUR FIRMWARE AND IT WON'T WORK!! ( Won't damage your phone, but you'll have to repeat the process )

Warning!! this allows you to sign sis from untrusted sources, so do not sign/install sis unless you're sure of the source.

Hi

thank you for the tut,

where can i get the mobile signer from?

and when you refer to c:\resource\swicertstore\dat\ is that on the phone?

and e:\ is that the phone also?

and when you mention reboot thats when the phone is powered up again after a crash battery loss etc i would need to resign it?

sorry for the noob questions,

i managed to sign it route66 last year from the symbian site but it wont let me do it on my new n95 8gb just says file too large, and i dont have another way of signing it as you need a publisher id i think?

thanks in advance

best regards

Well it may just be the program im using YYBrowser I think but it just comes up with an error whenever I try to create a new folder.

I need to install an app later so I might give the perm hack a try :)

Hi

i get the same message as emortal,

i had to disconnet phone and create the folders using the phone itself (resource\sw......

and it goes through all of it ok i.e creates sisx etc

begins the installation but stops and comes up with "unable to install a protected application from an unprotected supplier"

any way around or is it going tobe the hack?

thanks ps

if i used the newer version of mobile signer could this resolve it?

if you can create c:\resource\swicertstore\dat and put the 000001 file in there, then you don't need the hack. Looks like the issue may be with the cert and key. could you try step 5 and 6 again, and remember, if your restarted your phone you need to recopy the original 00000001 file into the folder i mentioned.

Tried all the steps again. no joy. My phone is N95 8GB with firmware v.15. Am i missing something???

[mudd786]

the file gensign.cert, when you unpack the cert.rar file actually come out as gensign.cer, so when you say rename gensign.cert to cer.cert, do u mean cer.cer?

will try it again after i recharge da blinkin fing

ps i did use my phone (n95 8gb) to create the folders on c: my nokia pc suite wouldnt allow it

does that make ant diffrence?

as when i wen to c: to see the folder it was in data then resource.....

but ill try it again step by step as i was running on no sleep baby has tonsalitas n fever

i tried the perm hack route but am unable to download the big python app it comes up with the logo but when i try to run it says error with windows installer or sumfin??

found it elswhere but it had a msdos batch file and it ran it in a msdos window, so when i try to run pyserial it says no python file found or registered
