S/MIME: trust certificate - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone!
First, sorry for double posting:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2749154
But the ZL-forum sadly is a very small community.
I got a signed mail, but the email-app told me that the certificate is not trusted. So I can't reply with an encrypted mail.
I also got the CAcertificate, but I'm unable to import it somewhere in the phone.
How can I trust a certificate?
Thanks for your help!!

Expired Certificate

Hi,
Done a quick search and nothing came up so......have diamond and set up on work email account using mail.*********.co.uk this all worked fine until recently, now I'm getting certificate expired error and no mail? Anyone seen this before and know how to fix?
Thanks
Have you checked the validy of the root certificates installed on your machine. Go to start-->settings-->system-->certificates-->root. Check to see none have expired or anything. It would also be worth checking with your work place tech guys. An expired certificate could mean something has changed on their end..therefore causing this problem. Is this an IMAP/POP3 account?
Hi, thanks for the quick reply, the email is from the exchange server, do you mean check the certificates on the device itself or the server?
Check both. Though its unlikely anything on the device is wrong. It must be the server. Id check with the office guys.
Found this on the HTC official FAQ:
Q. I was unable to sync with the Exchange Server and an "Install security certificate/expired" error message appeared on the screen.
A. Contact your network administrator to obtain and install the security certificate on your device.
Hope this helps. My best guess would still be obtaining a newer certificate for your mail account.
Ok, will check it out.
Many thanks.

Your Paypal account has been restricted

If you get this email....DONT CLICK THE LINK......!
THIS IS A FAKE!​
They Hack your account and steel your Money!
Here the original Email i get today:

Dear ........ ,
PayPal is constantly working to ensure security by regularly screening the accounts in our system. We recently reviewed your account, and we need more information to help us provide you with a secure service. Until we can collect this information, your access to your account features will be restricted. We would like to restore your access as soon as possible, and we apologize for the inconvenience.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is my account access restricted?
Your account access has been restricted for the following reason(s):
· 1. Feb. 2010: A recent review of your account determined that we require some additional information from you in order to provide you with a secure service.
(Your case ID for this reason is PP-381-133-271.)
· 2. Feb. 2010: We have reason to believe that your account was accessed by a third party as different computers have logged into your PayPal account and multiple password failures where presented before the logons. We now need you to re-confirm your account information to us. We understand that having restricted access can be an inconvenience, but protecting your account is our primary concern.
(Your case ID for this reason is PP-381-133-271.)

Please visit the link below, log into your account and complete the secure verification form:

What you do is contact them and sort it out.
Happened to me even though it was a false alarm.
These kind of mails are being send daily by scammers.
It is a known technique called fishing.
NEVER, and I mean NEVER click on a link to your bank/paypal/ebay/etc from an email certainly when it is a message like this.
account suspended, or even a false "you have bought item blabla", all these messages where designed to make the reader be concerned regarding their account, and thus follow the link and logging into a fake site.
Typing the address manually is always the safest bet.
Use one e-mail specific only for banking business like paypal, and for nothing else (not for forums etc..), never publish it on the web.
(what is unknown can not be spammed or scammed)

Unable to add an exchange email account, with a self certificated certificate. (SSL).

I recieved my new Nokia Lumina 920. I was some what disgruttled to find that i was unable to add, my companies email account using a self signed certificate. On my Android mobile using the same certificate, everything is added and works perfect.
What is so diffierent using Windows phone 8, using self signed certificate. And if there is a fix, can you let me know how to install it correctly.
The following error message appears when sync takes place
"There is a problem with the certificate for (domain name) contact your support person or your service provider. Last tried 5 minutes error code 80048888"
Exchange version : Exchange 2010
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
I know this will not help but, I did this myself to setup an Exchange 2003 server with a Self signed cert, I had no problem installing it (downloaded it via a hotmail account and just touched it to open it/install it)
I have done this on 7.5 and 8.0 with no problems at all. A problem with your cert ? Is it expired ?
Make sure you reboot your phone after you install the Cert, I had that issue with 7.5, it would not see it till a reboot...

Hi David
Thanks for coming back to me, I have tried what you have suggested however I'm still not getting my exchange 2010 to sync with my Nokia 920. Just wondering, your CERT was it a paid version or was it a self cert. Mine is a self cert does that make a difference. Please help me.
Thanks in advance..

Your phone should honor the Exchange CAS Server's certificate if you install the certificate of the CA which issued the certificate for the server.
And keep in mind that the principle name in the certificate should match the DNS name that your are using to connect to the server.
You will have to install the public key certificate of the CA issuing your self signed certificate. The certificate itself won't be enough as it can't be verified as when the phone checks up the path of trust it won't recognize the signing certificate. Hope that makes sense?

Hi Guys, you have solved my problems. Excellent support keep it up. I eventually exported the public key and installed it directly into the phone now my Nokia 920 works beautifly. One more question, I did get an error 85030028 and googling this said to go into IIs, click on active sync, then select SSL and tick ignore client certs... is that the correct way to active sync.. well the main thing is the phone is syncing as normal.
Thanks again
John

Mine was a self-signed cert, Not paid. One of the free tools from Microsoft or a 3d party... This is from my own personal exchange server.
Glad to see you got it working...

Haven't dealt with this myself but I guess it is possible that the phone tried to authenticate using one of the certificates you installed previously instead of using the credentials you provided but it's really just a guess. As long as SSL is still enabled the encryption should work and I see no issues with the setup.
If the setting causes ActiveSync to sync over HTTP instead of HTTPS that would be a concern so I would check if that is the case.

Hi Cfemen, I totally understand your frustrations. You can permanently delete your Facebook account, but if you find out the process is not completed yet you are blocked you can try reaching them through the free toll number 650-543-4800, since I believe the general deactivation process should just work out fine.
hey crushplug thanks for the answer!
im not sure about this number, im from Germany and i dont know how expensive a Phone Call to a US number is :/
i finally did find a solution...
for everyone who has the same problem:
send random pictures until somebody sends you an email with an CASE ID, now u can send messages to this support worker.
I explained my problem and they ignored me... i did this several days until a different person asked me for my DOB and gave me access to my Account.
