Due to these reasons:

1)Click on Project -> Add/Edit Capabilities
2)When UID is from protected range and your certificate is self-signed.

you are missing some capability, so check the API used and see docs for it to see the required capabilities, and then add the required capaiblities to your mmp file.

I think i tried what you said, however i will try again.
Hope it has nothing to do with DevCert & Manufactuers Approved Certificates etc., is it?
It actually fails when ChangL() function is invoked i guess.

most SMS operations only require self-signed capabilities, anyway, can you make sure you have Read/Write user data & networkServices capaiblbities added to your project..

[gaba88]

simple to access the inbox you need some capabilities, a self signed sis will not serve your porpose, try signing that sis with a developer certificate or a try using symbian online signing.

is it easy to get developer certificate?

C++! I assume you are talking about Symbian C++. You do not require extended set of capabilities to hide the SMS. Self-signed certified application will do that. Make sure you have defined necessary capabilities in your application.

Check this Wiki article for instance: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...crypt_Messages

@rohitsingh81: Let's not multipost and even if you tempt to do then do it in the appropriate section.

PS: I moved all your similar posts from Python section to this thread.

sorry about that, will take care next time.

This is my mmp file could you please have a look at it.

Try running your application on Emualator and find out the missing required capabilities. See this: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Epocwind.out

thank you sooooo much....actually i did a clean build and added the capabilities read,write and network and boom! it worked.
