This document outlines the steps to setting up and building a PhoneGap Qt project for the Symbian platform.

 

  1. Download and install the Nokia Qt SDK (notice: only the Windows version contains Symbian support).
  2. Download / clone the PhoneGap Qt source code:
    1. Clone with git:
      git clone git://github.com/callback/callback-qt.git
    2. or Download the source:
      Click the "Downloads" button on https://github.com/callback/callback-qt 
  3. The default phonegap application, located in the template directory, is a demo application. You can populate the template folder with your own PhoneGap web application.
  4. Build the project, and deploy your application:
    1. Run Start -> Programs -> Nokia Qt SDK -> Qt Creator
    2. Open the phonegap_qt.pro file that's located in the framework directory.
    3. Build or run the project for the Symbian target.

 

Notes:

 

  1. To run a PhoneGap Qt application on your device, you'll need to install Qt (and its prerequisites). You can these under Start -> Programs -> Nokia Qt SDK -> Symbian (note that you'll need the Nokia Ovi Suite to install the SIS files). For more info, see: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6/symbian-with-qt-introduction.html
  2. To install your own SIS file, you'll need to sign it. Visit www.symbiansigned.com, and use the Open Signed Online option, or explore the other certificate options there.
