Installation

Like any other Symbian OS application, m is installed from a .sis (Symbian Installation System) file.

Get the most recent version of the installation file for your device. You can always download the most recent files from www.m-shell.net, the official m website, together with accompanying documentation. For Windows®, there are complete installers. For other operating systems, download the .zip file.

Currently, there are four supported device types. For the two Symbian 2nd Edition device types, there are just two installation files:

S60 2nd edition	mShell-S60-2nd.sis
UIQ2	mShell-UIQ2.sis

For Symbian 3rd/5th Edition devices (Symbian 9 and higher), there are three variants due to platform security:

	Self signed	Online signable	DevCert signable
S60 3rd	mShell-S60-3rd.sis	mEnvironment-S60-3rd-OS.sis,	mEnvironment-S60-3rd-DC.sis,
		mShell-S60-3rd-OS.sis	mShell-S60-3rd-DC.sis
S60 5th	mShell-S60-5th.sis	mEnvironment-S60-5th-OS.sis,	mEnvironment-S60-5th-DC.sis,
		mShell-S60-5th-OS.sis	mShell-S60-5th-DC.sis
UIQ3	mShell-UIQ3.sis	mEnvironment-UIQ3-OS.sis,	mEnvironment-UIQ3-DC.sis,
		mShell-UIQ3-OS.sis	mShell-UIQ3-DC.sis

The three variants are (see also * (Reference) for details):

• The "Self signed" package is ready to install, but with some m functions not permitted by Symbian Platform Security. It contains the m environment as an embedded package.
• The "Online signable" packages must be signed online on www.symbiansigned.com and installed separately (mEnvironment first). After installation, executing m functions requiring extended capabilities will also be permitted.
• The "DevCert signable" packages must be signed with your own Symbian Developer Certificate and installed separately (mEnvironment first). After installation, executing m functions requiring certified capabilities will also be permitted.
