I\’ve sent my first version of PhoNetInfo (v1.2.0) to Symbian Signed in December 2006 and got the signed version at the end of March 2007!!!

Then, at the beginning of August 2007 I submitted again a new version and didn\’t get a reply till now…

Today I sent an email directly to Zishan from Cellmania. I don\’t expect a reply…

You can download the latest signed version of my app here:

The latest unsigned version is available in a special section:
http://www.patrickfrei.ch/phonetinfo/downloads_unsigned.html

So at least developers and users with profound knowledge can continue to use my application…

THIS IS SERIOUSLY BAD!

It\’s a shame Symbian and Nokia have slid down.

With my simple mind cannot understand how this is possible?!

…And also I don\’t know what could help (them fix their system)

It\’s a sad state of affairs, Anthony. I just want you to know that despite the utter disregard that SS shows toward small developers, the Symbian community holds you and your work in very high regard!

Hopefully SS will get their act together some day soon and you can pick this project up once again.

Hi Antony!

I totally share your feelings!
SymbianSigned is faceless company with ultimately arrogant attitude towards developers. Shame SS and Nokia!

@Ray: I agree. I see Windows Mobile is more attractive now. I don’t like this to happen, but let’s just hope that Symbian improves the process.

Thats really sad. This behavior will only shift more developers over to windows mobile.

This really sucks!

I’ve been following your previous posts regarding this issue and I was hoping that it would be resolved.
Symbian signed must be in a sorry state of affairs if they’ve let this happen.

Thanks for developing such an amazing application! I sincerely hope that you will resume development once the situation at Symbian signed improves.
