Who am I?

Thinking about what mobile phones can do except messaging and voice calls is one of my main interests. At the department of Mobile Computing at the University of Applied Sciences in Hagenberg (Austria), I can work on those ideas every day by collaborating with students, researching and - well - thinking.

whatisinmysis.com analyzes the contents of your.sis files.
Ever wondered what's inside your .sis files? Which certificate was used to sign it? Does it have the right capabilities? Of course there are utilities that can help you with analyzing the contents. One of them is the SISXplorer utility, or you can also use the sisinfo Python-script. Both are available for free.

But what if you don't want to install an application just to take a look at the contents of the .sis-file? Or what if you are working on a friend's PC that doesn't have the same, perfect setup as your own? Stefan Damm got into this situation from time to time, and then decided to make an online tool available.

The website whatisinmysis.com is an online interface to the sisinfo Python-script. You simply upload the .sis-file to the website, and it will display all the information about its contents. Easy, fast and free. No setup on your PC is required. The privacy statement on the site ensures that your uploaded files are deleted immediately after analysis.

whatisinmysis.com will display the following:

  • Contents of .sis file and installation directory of each entry
  • Capabilities of each executable (exe, dll, .pyd)
  • Certificate chain

If you find online services like the new one from Stefan Damm interesting, you might also want to bookmark WhyTheFuckWontMySisFileInstall.com. It has got a slightly different focus: it provides information about the signing status and prints reasons or suggestions why installation of this .sis-file might fail on a device.

Of course, whatisinmysis.com has now also been added to symbianresources.com.

Hello Andreas

This is really great stuff. This concept gives an idea how effectively python modules can be used.
Congrats to Stefan Damm for a very nice work.

Keep it up
Gargi.

devcert IMEI's

Hi Andreas,

Another tool is AnalySIS (I prefer it as the guy who wrote it incorporated my IMEI extraction code for devcerts so you can get a list of valid phones and capabilites which is useful when you get "constrained by certificate" error messages

http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=124128

If Stephan email's me using his uni address (as above), I can send him win32 C++ code to read the certificate and extract the IMEI's and capabilities
