Really?
I thought you could 'randomly' do anything where choice is a factor....

It takes less than 30 seconds to transfer the program to the phone.
If you have ever your phone unguarded for more than the length of time it takes to install this program; theoretically, this program could be on your phone.
If I was the Government, I could listen to everyone's calls; By running the voice data through a network of supercomputers that converts spoken words to text, which would scan for key terms and intent.
I would never get anything done to my phone by someone else.
I do it all my self.If I cant figure out how to do it, then it doesn't get done.
It has symbian OS version, cleanly re installed by me after I bought it, programs need to be signed in order to install them.
However I use a program called HelloCarbide to remove the need for signing.
I can install any program on my phone, but I would never let anyone else near it.
Secondly, it would show up in the phone that it had been installed because, the programs I use on it show things at a code level.
I have special programs that show things that are not normally shown.
This program is nothing more than a Trojan, the same as on pc's.
A keylogger.Except it logs more than just key strokes.
Ive had several Trojans on my phone from websites, and Kaspersky mobile detected and removed them.
The government doesn't need to install a keylogger to listen, they can listen through patching into the channel through the exchanges.
Have a look here for more info.

Its best to modify and clean install the symbian OS when you buy a new phone to get rid of any rubbish they put in it.

(Actually if I was the Government, I would obey The Constitution)

Yeah same here, though my phone runs Cellon Linux. It's easy to see what's running by issuing the ps cmd.
However due to a bit of brain fade I managed to screw up one of the start-up scripts and now it won't boot. Still kicking myself over that
Oh well at least no one will be able to monitor my phone now

"To put it simple, would you be able to install a fuel injection system on a 58 mustang without having to add a lot of custom hardware? i guess not, or i'm wrong? well the same applies to cell phones. it-just-can't-be-made. "
You compare THAT to a file transfer?
*In any case, and as John Sky said: You don't have to load software on a phone to listen in, you can also decrypt transmissions going to and from the tower with a cell card and a laptop.
It's harder to do, but you don't need point of contact to achieve it.

Well to be fair, it wasn't the OS's fault. By default the OS is write protected but I disabled it. Big mistake huh, lol.
Actually it's not that funny, I was going to put Android on it. But no, I had to try something else first...
