Try this .htaccess instead. It's very simple, I use it during development.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ app_dev.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
You should then be able to access Symfony at http://example.com/ without app_dev.php in the URL
