AutoStart not working

[santu.paul@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I have created a sis file which will auto start my application. I have created both the sis files as one package file. It is working fine if i install it in the C drive, means phone memory but it is not working if i install it in the memory card. My pkg files are like this

My application pkg:

"$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\release\$(PLATFORM)\$(TARGET)\Applc.app" -"!:\system\apps\Applc\Applc.app"
"$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\data\z\system\apps\Applc\Applc.r01" -"!:\system\apps\Applc\Applc.r01"
"$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\data\z\system\apps\Applc\Applc_caption.r01" -"!:\system\apps\Applc\Applc_caption.r01"
"$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\data\z\system\apps\Applc\Applc.aif" -"!:\system\apps\Applc\Applc.aif"
"$(EPOCROOT)epoc32\data\z\system\apps\Applc\Applc.mbm" -"!:\system\apps\Applc\Applc.mbm"

My Auto start pkg:

"C:\Symbian\7.0s\Series60_v21_CW\Epoc32\release\$(PLATFORM)\$(TARGET)\ApplcAutoStart.MDL" -"C:\system\recogs\ApplcAutoStart.mdl"

And in the auto start .cpp file i am searching the application from the path

\\system\\apps\\Applc\\Applc.app

So can anyone tell me why the applcation is not auto starting if i install it in the memory card? Or i have to install it in the phone memory for autostart.

Santu

The application starting is the last of a chain of events and operation that occur after you boot the phone. Have you confirmed that everything else works to that point?

• Is your recognizer being loaded?
• Does it wait enough time for the boot sequence to complete before continuing?
• Does it find your application installed?
• Does the application launch succeed?

Hi,
I have changed the installing path directly to C drive that means to phone memory. I am not giving any option to the user to select the memory where he/she want to install.
I want to know for commercial release of my application will this thing give any problem for getting certification?

And one more thing the Auto is not working for 3rd edition FP1. But the same code work for 3rd edition FP2. Can i know what may be the cause?

Hi rokroff,

That is an application. But i am doing an application which will auto start when the phone start without using such type of application. I have done that using CApaDataRecognizerType. Can anyone tell me what is the problem with 3rd edition FP1.

See http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...ded_at_startup

For 3rd edition you MUST use the startup API as this is a requirement of Symbian signed.

Hi Paul,

Auto start sample code is not working in C7 and N8 but some times its work on Nokia X6

If it is a GUI application, there seems to be a race condition with the Nokia splash screen. I have generated a new GUI project, added the 3 modifications described in #39 of http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...ation-Signing!, and Open Signed Online it for my N8.
If I wait for the spalsh screen to play after entering PIN and lock codes, the application does not start.
If I skip the splash screen, the application starts up a few seconds after the Idle screen appears.
Qt may bring additional complications too, that part you should discussed in the Qt boards.
