How do I export a root certificate? - HD2 General

Hi All,
I'm in the process of putting together all the settings I need to flash my O2 HD2 to WWE 1.66, and in doing so I noticed that there are two O2 root certificates on my device. How do I go about exporting these, so I can re-import them once I've flashed my phone? Is it just a case of finding the certificate key in the registry and then exporting that key or is there more to it than that?
I notice there's no 'export' option in the certificate manager...
Thanks,
Simon

Opening first the following registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\StorageManager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC
and the delete the key Mountflags...I did so by using the grundlesoftware regedit........BUT !!! It didnt just delete the key, it also deleted the profiles registry!
Under the the StorageManager are now only three folders AutoLoad; FATFS; and Partion Table......the other one are missing.
Now my xdaII (german version) cant read or even recognize an memorycard (SD_CARD)
Can someone help me please :-( Can I enter the reistry and enter the missing folders with the keys or do i have to put an new rom?

Security Certificates with P IE

I want to access my online banking through my XDA2 (o2 UK), but I have to import a security certificate from my desktop PC. I see nothing about cerificates in the Pocket IE, How would I import it so I can access my banking.
Any ideas>>> :? :? :?
Maybe Start - Settings - System - Ñert Enroll ?
If I go into start-settings, there is a certificates icon, but when you tap on it it does not allow any certificate importing.
any other ideas???
does anyone know where the certificates are kept on the XDA2, maybe I can download the cert and copy into the place where they are read from.
help???

i see it too
need tool to install certificates (cer & pfx)
It's actually quite simple ;o)
Copy the .cer file to the phone, somewhere you can find it.
Open the file explorer on the phone, locate the file, and click it..
It'll then ask you if you want to import it.

Help with mms

Hey guys,
I am unable to set up an mms account on the dopod 838pro with the 3 network provider. When I go to messaging and then new accounts it asks for an email address...Shouldn't there be more options? Do I need some sort of patch to show them?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
it is in one of the CAB file in your EXT (original) that you have skipped installing.
So how would I go about installing it?
Cheers
Would I have to mount the extended rom or something there? And would this void the warrenty?
Cheers
you need to unlock ext ROM and execute the CAB as usual.
Or else, if you are able to find ext ROM some where else (eg, the FTP), you can just get the CAB and execute it.
No, it won't void your warranty. The problem is finding the right CAB and avoid installing unnecessary CAB.
Thanks for the advice
Just found it easier to hard reset and just reinstall everything again
Cheers

Backing up Outlook/Exchange Certificates

Hello all. I am going to update my ROM, but have a quick question. My work email and calendar sync to my Mogul. Originally my works IT department had to install a certificate so I could sync. When I install the new ROM, I am betting this certificate will go away.
Is there anyway to backup the Certificates so I can reinstall them myself? I am not supposed to be on the exchange server per some stupid/outdated company policy but had a friend put me in there. I would like to not have to go back to IT as I don’t want to get anyone in trouble.
Thanks for the help.
I've exported HKCU\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates\.... into a cabfile and use this one after every new rom i'm flashing
and it's working very well.
If you export into reg-file and edit this file with an hex-editor you'll find your exchange certificate for sure. and under HKCU\Software\microsoft\ActiveSync you can find your Exchange settings (servername etc). after flashing a new rom the only thing i have to do is to enter my password and that's it....if you're unsure, you could try to import into an wince emulator and test if it's working the way you want....

you could use dotfred's taskmanager for example (for PPC) or CERegeditor (for Windows Desktop) to export or import the registryentries.
Both tools are for free. Another solution could be SASHIMI which can also import registry files. Or you could create your own Mortscript, both are also for free.
if your ROM is supporting UC there is also a section for exchange (somewhere in the thread)
If you want to create a cab, WinCECabManager is easy, but not free.

HI Peter,
I tried exporting those reg keys out and after flashing my rom I managed to reimport them.
When I checked the certificates in Settings, they seem to be there. Checked Activesync settings, it is also there, however, when tried to sync, got this error
"The Microsoft Exchange Server requires a personal certificate to log on. Please obtain a certificate as directed by your corporation or service provider"
There was no option to key in password.
I had to re-enroll for a certificate going through my PC's WMDevice Center before able to sync with my Exchange server again.
So ... wonder whether I am still missing something that prevents me from restoring the certificates completely. Are there any physical certificate files that I need to back up as well ?
cheers

Bumpdibump, the same with me - although this is regarding a transfer from Rose to Polaris - this is the best post I have found so far...
Any luck on some specific files we need to copy in addition to the registry?
so i assume that the .cer used for the exchange server is no longer on the phone?

I don't quite remember what happened, but for my part - not sure if the cer file was there, but it didn't help much anyway since whatever cer file I tried to validate with didn't work. I am looking into a different thread using rapiconfig to get the details from my phone, but I guess it ain't enough to only get the info from registry to get the darn thing to work.

[SOLVED/FYI] Active Sync with Wildcard Certificate

Dear Members,
It was bit frustrating that my office exchange email uses a wildcard certificate for validation. As we all know, the newer builds of WM does not allow connections using wildcard certs. So i was not able to configure my push email on my device when i used custom roms
(Ref: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc182301.aspx)
Windows Mobile 5.0 does not support the use of wildcard certificates for device-to-server authentication. This restriction applies to all communications, including Exchange ActiveSync.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
However, i noticed that stock roms (i used 1.66, My device is Leo, SEA region) allow sync using wildcard certs (there will be a warning on initial sync, but syncs fine after that)
So, I flashed a stock rom, configured my activesync. Finally I extract all relevant entries from below registry keys:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Security\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners\"some GUID"
...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note: To make life easier, after flashing stock rom, do a registry dump (before and after) using CeReg to PC. Then use compare in CeReg and export the regs into file.
I have put the reg settings as ext package and cooked it in. It syncs fine without warning. The prob is, now i am unable to select or change the additional folders to sync with. Would cooking in as ext mess up the ability to select Menu - Tools - Manage Folders... ?
Anyways, im posting this info here as i searched highs and lows on getting activesync to work with wildcard certs and found no solution. Im hoping someone out there with same problem could advice if there are any better solution or my somewhat usable solution may be helpful others as this does get the pushmail working. My solution syncs inbox just fine (only cant select additional folders to sync).
Any suggestions/ideas are most welcome.
Solution/Work around the problem is in post 1 to 3.
My current ROM info: SYS 21903 / Base TMOUS 2.13 / Manila 2.5.20121412.2
Well, about not being able to select the "Manage folders", i found a way around the prob:
1. Under active sync partnership - Option and uncheck the "Mail". It will ward about deleting the mails on device. Just choose OK.
2. Reboot device.
3. Similar to step 1, enable mail back. Upon sync, you will be able to select the manage folders option.
Apparently to get the list of folders, we need the synckey to be 0 in the request sent to server. I do not understand nor know how to make the device send synckey as 0. So, this temp solution works for me.
anyone with better solution? Guess next step is to find out whick key in reg exactly enables to bypass the wildcard certificate restriction.
Reference: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/openspecification/archive/2010/04/24/activesync-iii.aspx
Solved
Upon further experimentation, i discovered that active sync does not create any registry entries until first successful sync.
So, this lead t only 1 conclusion - We need to create the reg entry our self and merge it to registry during cooking process/cab/etc. Then, do as described in post #2.
Anyone with wildcard cert prob, and do not understand what im talking about here may drop me a PM and i'll provide with further details as im sure very very few of us are having this sort of problem!
I'm changing the title to SOLVED/FYI as i successfully cooked my exchange email settings and synced without prob.
