Exporetd game wont work on smartphone!

[Novice]

I exported a game for windows based smartphones, and transfered it to my motorola mpx220 and when i try to run it notihng hapens, when i instaled it thru trajectos CAB file i get a mesage "not a valid windows CE aplication".
My phone uses Windows Mobile 2003 second edtition. Why is this happening?

Sorry if this is obvious, but it’s pretty easy to export as the wrong type. I've seen that message when I accidentally exported as a windows game and tried to run it on my pocket pc.

[Novice]

It's the right type. I checked about fifty times and exported the game as many times. I dont konw why it wont work. Is it posible that some comands wont work on a smartphone?

Please, just copy the exported executable in the smartphone and try execute.

[Novice]

I tried that and it wont work.
I made the simplest game with only one actor and no events, i tried chaging all the options in GE from seting the sound to mono, to changing the frame rate and it still wont work.
Please help GE is the only reason i bought this phone.

Don't worry. Game Editor was tested in the mpx 220 without problems.
What's happen now?

[Novice]

Nothing it just says its
"This program comes from an unknown source that may not be trustworthy. Do you wish to start this program?"
And when i press yes, the phone starts to load and returns me to file manager as if nothing happened.

Due security, smartphone applications need to be code signed.
So, you need have a digital certificate to sign the exported game.
If you want to execute the application without sign, you need unlock the smartphone.

How can i digitaly sign my game? Is there a program for this or do i do it thru GE?
Thank you for your time.

There is a good tutorial here:

"Automating Code Signing of Windows Executables"

But whether or not the code is signed you should still be able run the game, I've run a game I created on a WM5 smartphone without issue

I've unlocked my phone, and tested it with Doom that requiers your phone to be application ulocked, and it works great. I tried my game out now with the unlocked phone and it still wont work. What can i be doing wrong?

[makslane]

irblinx can you test the Novice game?
Or send to Novice a working game?

[Novice]

Yeah thats a good idea, if you have anything that you've made with GE and tested on a smartphone, please send it to my email. Id be very gratefull. It can be just an empty game with one actor but please test it first, just to know if it will start.

Apologies for the delay, I've been away and then mad busy at work so only just got around to coming back on. You still want to try this? If so I'll knock something up and test it here (WM5 smartphone) before posting
