URL Excepitions - Networking

Hi all,
I have several WM5 and WM6 devices wich connect to my companies network using GPRS for Outlook sync and a custom application. I want to use our proxy-server to add internet acces for our users in a controlled way. The OWA server and the custom application server need to be directly, not by the the proxy-server. So I have to add those the URL Exceptionlist ( there are dots in the names).
Manually this is easy to configure but I use scripts to configure the devices (XML-provisioning and some other tools). Can't find out how to add entries to the URL Exceptions list. Found they are stored in \ConnMgr\CMMapP and ~CMMapG. Copied these files from one device to another (by ActiveSync) but that doesn't work. These files have the system attribute set and I guess their permanently in use by ConnectionManager.
Doe anyone have a suggestion how to distribute URL exceptions?
Thank in advance.

certificate installation

Hi all,
I have just upgraded to ROM 2.17.7.6 FRF on my Qteck 9100, service provider SFR (France).
Big problem : I cannot sync anymore with my Exchange Server. I understood the source of the problem: the Exchange self signed certificate is missing on the device after the Rom update. I tried to install it manually (by copying the .cer file via AS onto the device) but when I double click on the .cer file in the device, I get the message "Access to the certificate is impossible" (translated from French). There seems to be some kind of protection againts installing root certificates.
Any idea to get around this ?
Thanks -- any help really really appreciated. I am quite desperate at this stage...
Did you make sure to export the root certifcate in binary not MIME encoded format?
For me it worked to import a binary root certificate.
Thanks TcT.
Well I am not sure of the content of the .cer file.
What I did was simply copy the original .cer from the Microsoft Server to my client PC and then via Active Sync to the device and then double click on it. Nothing else.
What did you do?
There are several ways to export that Cert so that you can copy it though. DER encoded binary is what you need to use. In my case, I used a copy of my server's root cert on IE on my desktop. I exported it in DER format then copied it onto my 8125. I then tapped it and chose "install certificate".
In fact, I just tested this again on my Qtek 2.17 equipped 8125 and it worked perfectly.
Thank you Sleuth,
sorry to ask dumb questions but how do you use IE to import the cert in the requested format? What I did is I went to the \clientapps directory of the server and simply copied the .cer file. I suppose this is wrong.
You can double click on the .cer file on your PC there should be an "export" or "copy" button somewhere in that dialog there you can export the .cer file in different formats/encodings.
TcT great it worked
10 000 thanks. That was the trick
Exchange Activesync with Certs enabled
Hi,
I also have a Qtec 9100 an am unable to sync with Exchange using Certificates
I can sync if i turn OFF SSL on the server, i can also sync if i add the appropriate reg key into the device to disable Cert checking however i am curious to know if others have been able to sync using a manually created Cert .
i have tried exporting the cert from the server and the Desktop PC in all available formats and i am able to import this into the Trusted Root folder on the Qtec however each time i try to sync i get the error :
0x80072F01
Synchronization failed. The security certificate on the server is invalid. Contact your system administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server and try again.
any assistance is greatly recieved

Hi Matti,
If your trying to use SSL, a PocketPC needs a proper SSL certificate installed to sychronise.
You need to install the root certificate - a good way to do this is by exporting the Root certificate to an CER file through IE. You just go to the site on a PC, and double click the little padlock. Then click export to a file to get the .CER file.
Once you've done this, copy it to your Pocket PC, and it should work immediately.
Good Luck
What is the path where I copy the file?
Cant find oultlook folders
Ok. Now I installed it and same error message appears.
Any ideas?
Is there any way to turn off certificate validation in windows mobile 5.0?
Ok I think I need this file but I dont have that CD. Could someone email me that file, please

Personal certificate

I need to install a certificate for wifi on my university. As you all know PEAP needs a personal certificate. But when i install the certificate it's placed in the base folder and not in the personal folder.
Yes i added the ValidateServerCert to the registery.
Anyone can help?
If I am not mistaken it should be in the base
or it may depend on the certificate
In my case I also need a cer to use my Uni's WiFi and when I install it I find it in the base list
my problem is the certificate seems to be outdated otherwise according to the instruction I had the certificate should be in the base list.
Not sure if this helps, I have a digital certificate which allows me to get onto my work email from home.
I just copied the certificate to my memory card and then opened it through the phones file explorer.
It installed the certificate for me.
I installed the certificate the same way as you. But when i try to connect the router, it says: "you need a personal certificate" and personal certificates are used to identify yourself and base certifactes are not. So i think i need to get that certifacte to te personal folder.
Have you tried via ActiveSync? Saw an option last night, although have no experiences with certs.
Try secureW2 plug-in. (use google to find it)
A common problem is that you need certain root certificates as well- and WM doesn't download/ install them.
There are even networks that you won't be able to connect to using PEAP- like the one my uni uses. Don't ask me for detailed reasons... It's some kind of yet unsolved WM-WiFi-certificate-issue.
i use secureW2 as well at my university... works great

SSL Certificate in Dutty-Rom

Hi,
With the normal HTC HD rom, I installed a SSL certificate (*.crt file), by using the file-explorer, and clicking on the file.
Now I installed Dutty's latest rom, and I tried to install the certificate by clicking on it, and it tells me no program is associated with *.crt files.
Is there some other way I can add the certificate to the certificate storage? I use an exchange server that have a self-signed certificate. I had it working before I flashed the rom, so I know its possible, question is how
I hope one of you smart guys know how to do it
Thanks

I needed to install wildcard certificate that my company uses for Exchange. After 2-3 hours of fight (using .crs files doesnt worked well) I found a way:
1. Get "Microsoft SSL ChainSaver" and use it to obtain certificate you need
you will get 2 XML files - for HD use that one for WM6 and rename it to _setup.xml
2. Use "makecab" (got it by default in Vista Business - dont know other OS'es) to make CAB file from _setup.xml.
3. Install CAB file on your device
Rgds,
W.
Thanks! Worked perfectly!

[Q] Transfer data from Nokia C6-00 to HTC HD2 TyphooN CM7 v2.4

Hello,
What program I can use to transfer, contacts, SMS, notes and scheduler from Nokia C6 to HTC HD running Android TyphooN CM7 v2.4?
As it seems the Nokia C6-00 does not have the usual Mail for Exchange interface.
Is there a way without using outlook or gmail, which can transfer only contacts as I know?
What is the easiest and fastest way?
Thank you in advance.
Finally i have use this way for e-mails:
For contacts go to settings>>Connectivity>>data transfer>>Sync
Under Options either set up a new sync profile or edit the exsisting one.
Select only contacts (calendar just won't sync with Google.)
Sync Profile Name: anything you want
Server Version: 1.2
Server ID: Google (capital G)
Data bearer: Internet
Network Connection: your connection depending on wifi or carrier
Host address: https:/m.google.com/syncml
Port:80
User Name: [email protected]
Password: (yours)
Allow sync requests: Whatever you want (I put Ask first, for wifi only)
Network Username: None
Network Password: (leave it)
Under Contacts
Contacts database: contacts (must be lowercase)
and this to move all SMS :

Nokia Ovi to Android SMS convert utility
Description
Nokia2AndroidSMS is a small application that allows you to convert SMS messages from Nokia Ovi datafiles into an xml file supported by SMS Backup & Restore Android application.
Process for transferring SMS messages to your new Android Phone is the following.
Nokia phone side:
Install Nokia OVI, (You don’t need the OVI account!)
synchronize messages from your phone with OVI
Disconnect your Nokia Phone and close the Nokia OVI application. WATCH OUT. Noia OVI likes to minimize to system tray please be sure you really closed the application
Conversion:
Download Nokia2AndroidSMS and extract it to any directory.
Run Nokia2AndroidSMS.exe
The application should automatically find all datastores created by Nokia OVI and automatically select the 1st one.
If it should fail to detect datastores you’ll have to find it by yourself, you can either drag and drop datastore file from Windows Explorer onto the Nokia2AndroidSMS window or use the Open button to find it.
You can change the datastore in the 1st selection list if there is more than one
If you have more than one phone in the datastore than you can select for which you’d like to export the messages, they are listed by their IMEI number.
Press Convert button and you should get an xml file in the same folder you extracted Nokia2AndroidSMS to
WATCH OUT: If you get: “Failed to load DLL library. System error number was 126.“ Antivirus probably prevented proper extraction of archive, so you need to extract it again and/or disable antivirus when extracting. The most problematic AV software found was Bitdefender.
Android:
Install SMS Backup & Restore
Connect the phone onto the PC (You MUST select Disk drive as connection type)
Copy the xml file into the SMSBackupRestore Folder on the phone, create it if it’s not already there
Run SMS Backup & Restore and import messages.
P.S.
Using the first method you can transfer and SMS to Google messages folder.
have u try myphoneexplorer?
