  2. I got the same for GMail.jad. Please check whether your mobile is supported for Yahoo Go 3.0 or not. You can browse m.yahoo.com and check which version of Yahoo Go is supported by clicking “update now”.

    Wow! downloading worked like a charm! Fantastic Tutorial! The only problem was i dont have the necessary certificate to install Yahoo Go 3! it says certificate not on phone or sim. I have Nokia 5310Music Xpress. Due to a a firmware update error i had to flash the phone and now it seems i dont have all the certificates that came with the phone especially for “Apps. Signing” like from Verisign or Thawte. Any clue on how i can get it on my phone? Sorry if its the wrong place to ask. Thanks in advance! Btw Rubel hope to see more amazing tuts from you!
