Disable certificate checking - HTC Tornado

Ugh. Trying to find out how I can install my root certificate onto these WM2005 devices.
Certchk doesn;t work any more and I can't change anything in the registry (apparently the reg editor would have to be signed by the operator?!)
Can anyone help? Otherwise I have the alternative of buying an expensive certificate (bloody rip-off!) or sending this nice phone back!

Hi I got an I-Mate SP5 / (HTC Tornado), and have the same problem.
Please add your thoughts to this thread if you come closer to a solution.
I have tried to change SecurityPolicy like on the 2003 device with no luck..
I have tried to change policy direct in registry + with some freeware tools.
Running out of ideas... ;/ I really don't want to pay bucks to be able to use install own software on my own phones, and use own root CA certs.. it is just annoying.. The security model should be as on ppc.. og atleast possible to manipulate manually in a configuration stage.

try attached file.
I got a package of debug tools
I can see many other files for installing certificate something in it.
I think this should be enough to install software.

Thanks fly,
Didn't try your file, but I did find out how to get it working.
I posted it in another forum... (do a google for "fergus certificate disable" amd the first one comes up with it.) Seems to work, at least for me.

Try this:

On Imate.com there is now a specific program for installing the certificate for the SP5. I have sometime read, that this program is OEM specific, so I don't think that it will work on a Qtek 8310.

whatever I do - can't make it work
Trie it on mt Qtek branded Torndo. Followed all directions to the letter, used same self administered certificate working OK on my Qtek 9000 and IMate PDA2K... doesn't work, anybody has a clue ?

thx

It works
Actually Following above instructions work. I just mispelled our incredibly long domain name

Upload Imate Utility
Can someone upload the Imate Chertificate utility to the FTP site or attach it to a message here, or PM it to me. I have the new T-Mobile SDA, so I can't get the file from Imate's site and it does not appear to be on Imate's FTP server.
TIA

I Found It.
Here it is

Didn't Work on T-Mobile SDA
The i-mate utility would not run on my US T-Mobile branded Tornado (SDA). However, the instructions in the linked thread above worked perfectly. Thanks. I'm now syncing with my exchange server and my own generated certificate with ease.

Disabling certificates
Is there a way to simply disable certificates?
If not how the f#@k do I get a simple program in visual studio onto my phone.
I have added the Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Remote_Tools.cer to my app.
I have used regedit to set the propeties as above.
I have installed Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Remote_Tools.cer to my device.
When I try to compile the app I get the error saying security is stopping the install.
I am obviously do not understand what goes where.
Anyone have a idiot level step by step guide to get the thing working.
Hurry up about to hang myself

Greetings from Ukraine!
I expect to receive Cingular 2125 soon and would like to ask a question. Since our MS Exchange Server uses our own security certificate I will have to add our root certificate into Cingular 2125. I have successfully done that several times for HTC MTeoR using SP_AlowCertificateInstall.
Can somebody advise whether it may also be possible to unlock Cingular 2125 by means of SP_AlowCertificateInstall to be able to install our certificate?
If not and as posts in this topic are rather old perhaps you know some “nowaday” method to add security certificates into Cingular 2125?

M$ Office Communicator Package?

I would like to integrate M$ Office Communicator into a ROM but I am struggling converting the original .cab file into a working package....
I have extracted the contents of the .cab file and created a .rgu and initflashfiles.txt files. The files get installed and it will run but I can't get the Today Screen stuff to display. I know there is a conflict with the 'rtcdll.dll' file since if you have VoIP then it already exists, however I am cooking the rom without VoIP (since it doesn't fully work). I have modified the .rgu to reflect the files are now in \Windows but the Today Screen stuff won't display. I have checked the registry entries and the files are there after the ROM has been installed and they are?
I don't know what else to look for, has anybody got any pointers
I can post the .cab if anyone can help?

You can extract the .cab file from the .MSI file - I used 'LessMSIerables'

Any success?
Any success with making a package from this? I had another play around but didn't get anywhere. I think the installation must create some additional files and/or registry changes that doesn't happen when it's installed as a package.
Do any ROMs have this in by default? i.e. not cooked ones but ROMs released by mobile operators or manufacurers? Maybe backward engineer it?

I did have it working briefly, however I am not privileged enough to have GPRS enabled on my company SIM so I only managed to test it when I temporarily rigged a Wireless AP up in the office. We were only trialing OCS at the time, however I think we now have it installed but isn't fully rolled out yet.
I spend very little time actually in the office so unless I can be bothered setting up a few VM machines with Exchange & OCS on I am unlikely to test it further...
I never managed to get it into an OEM package either, if anyone has one or wants to build one that would be good....
The latest version seems to be Office Communicator Mobile 2007 (2.0.387.0) from September 2007 and it says it is compatible with OCS 2007:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...24-F216-4887-92B0-F37D942E26E0&displaylang=en
This is a Windows Mobile 5/6 version and there is a (Smart)Phone version as well.

Update OCS
I know this is old but you need to disable the client version filter on OCS. If you're connecting over the internet, then you need to do this on your Access Edge server (under Application properties). Just lower the version to 2.0.1.0 and you should be good to go. M$ hasn't released a later version even as of this post (unless you know something I don't). I asked them about it and they know (sounds like a new version is being worked out).

I have no idea where you are going with that answer? This post was originally about making an OEM package of Office Communicator Mobile 2007 for use in a ROM kitchen.....
I have OCM 2007 working fine with our OCS 2007 Server either in the Office on the private network or via the Internet (GPRS or public WiFi). What I want to do is include OCM in my ROM so I don't have to manually install it each time I flash a new ROM. It looks like I am missing one final registry entry but I still haven't found it.

Exchange 2007 and activesync over gprs

Hi,
I am having problems synchronizing our S710 with our exchange 2007 server. We have a self-signed certificate which as I understand it cannot be used with HTC Vox. Although after contacting HTC Support I received instructions on how to bypass this issue with the program SpAddCert.exe. Although after receiving this file from HTC Support I get an error stating "Access Denied, the program cannot start because it is not signed etc".
I have searched this forum and basically every other forum that I can find in order to have this problem resolved.
Has anyone come across this issue before, and how did you resolve this?
I would buy a certificate from verisign or any other certificate authority, only problem is, the company owner is currently not in the country and will be out of reach for some time making it that much harder and time consuming to generate the certificate I so needed last week or so.
Any input would be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Mattias
Use M$ Security Manager to fully unlock your device and to add your self-signed cert.
M$ security manager
OK, thanks a lot for your reply.
Am I correct in interpreting M$ as microsoft?
Also, the download I found upon googling microsoft security manager seems to be intended for wm5, will this work for wm6 as well?

So does it work now?

Goodlink for WM6 Pro problems

I have a Sprint Touch (HTC Vogue) running WM6 Pro. When I go to their site to download the client (get.good.com), I save save and launch the software, it goes to an OTA installer. When it does this, I get a message stating that
WARNING
Good Messaging is not supported for this type of handheld.
Contact your IT administrator.
Of course my company has not renewed their tech support contract with Good.
Can anyone suggest a work around for this? Perhaps there is a way to change the registry so the software thinks it is a WM5 phone, then I can install the software and then change the registry back?
Thanks.

Live mesh mobile client available

If you have been using the live mesh technical preview, the mobile client for wm6 is now available. Just sign in as normal and then add device.
I'm still seeing "Coming soon for mobile" The limited Mac tech preview shows up, though.

I signed in and out of live mesh and it appeared.
Must not have replicated to the servers I hit yet. I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for the heads-up!
I really like live mesh, (for me at least), it just works out of the box.
Hi !
Is there someone that can post the cab ?
Thanks !
Whatever !
I found it :
http://m.mesh.com/install/wm6/LiveMesh.cab
But it doesn't connect to the mesh : "only available to a limited number of users"
Arrgh this is annoying, Ive been using Mesh for a while and now its comming up with for U.S only wtf?

It says US and UK on the Live Mesh blog. I am however having trouble at the point where it's trying to add the device, possibly because I'm on GPRS at the moment and it might be timing out, I guess.
SQL CE error
When I try to install I get this error message....
"Live Mesh was unable to find a suitable version of SQL CE on this device. Unable to install Live Mesh."
I've tried to install SQL, i downloaded it from microsoft directly, and its listed as "SQLServerCompact 3.5 Core" under Remove Programs....
Any ideas??? I really want to use this....
Yes, it's only for US and UK
I installed the mesh cab, and using an "US" account (a french one, but with my country changed to US ) it WORKS ! And works well. I have now a "cabstore" synced with my own server, live mesh and my TyTN II.
Great service !
Got it last night, works great with my XV6800.

I've got this exact same problem. I posted over on the Microsoft Mesh forum and am waiting for a conclusive answer. It's been passed over to the Mobile Dev team apparently.
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en/LiveMesh/thread/8e80d590-9c88-4522-bdab-3d23bea718c0
I wonder if it's got anything to do with cooked roms? I'm running CRC WM 6.1 v13.0 on my Hermes.
--Update--
Apparently there is an issue with cooked ROMs as they don't all include SQL. Installing SQL seperately will not help unless you use a version lower the 3.5 but even that has not been proven yet.
I'm going to try and find an older version of SQL and give it a bash.
Further information here:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/b8a6da09-c53a-4168-91bf-f476d2a1876f
Firstly I am in the UK Ive downloaded the updated cab and now everytime I run it it gets past verifying user and then gets stuck on Getting mobile phone identifier and then fails
SQL CE Issue has been identified and resolved
The client needs SQL CE 3.1 installed, and does not work with SQL CE 3.5 installed.
Read and follow information in forum:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/b8a6da09-c53a-4168-91bf-f476d2a1876f/
All working well after applying Jef K's fix over on the Mesh Forum.
Problem now is that the MEsh Client can't acquire my device ID to register the phone onto my mesh.
Issue being delt with over at http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/c7ce844c-a4e3-4be4-838d-1ebdca5986e7
I downloaded the cab but says that I cannot do it because only a limited number of users can right now. How sad...

You cannot remote desktop to the phone (shame)

Limited Users, anyone else got the same problem?
cheeers Tom
I use mesh for a back up right now and it works great for my home computers. Some things that bugged me are:
No remote desktop.
It will only sync your remote directories to the main memory. I tried to sync my work folder and it didn't place it in the storage card.
It launches external applications to view the mesh folders (Pocket IE) and the file explorer to view local folders.
All in all, a nice first attempt. Build in remote desktop and I would PAY for a service like this!
@Networkguy: it's still the first beta... keep waiting
Unfortunately i can't find a today plugin. This is sad. Anyone has an idea?

WM6.1 - Disable Server Certificate Verification

[SOLVED]
I had to install the certificates on my Diamond!
Hi Everyone,
I'm having trouble finding a way to disable the server certificate verification. I've searched everywhere but any of the solutions worked for me.
Here my problem:
I'm trying to connect (ActiveSync) to an exchange server - OWA (i.e. webmail.companyname.com) from my HTC Touch Diamond (WM6.1) phone but I keep having the "Invalid Certificate" message.
What I've found:
I've found few solutions to disable the server certificate verification but none fits my needs.
DisableCertChk.EXE ((Solution found here!))
Only works on PPC 2002/2003 and smartphones 2002
Hacking your Windows Mobile 5.0 Registry (Solution found here!)
Very interesting since it only requires a registry modification... But I think it only works on Windows Mobile 5.0!
I'm looking for a registry hack to disable that verification so I can connect to the exchange server!
What's crazy is that other colleges have iPhones and they don't have any problem connecting to the server !
Please help me overcome this problem without having to ask the IT helpdesk for the certificates... It will take ages before they could do something!
Thank in advance!
(I'm pretty sure there's a way but I couldn't find it by myself)
what did u do, get the cert from IT?
I'm having this problem with google so I can't get the cert.
-Kenny
me too - same problem..
