Problem with Pocket Outlook unable to open URL's - P3300, MDA Compact III General

I've just noticed that if I receive an Email with a URL embedded in the body , then pocket outlook refuses to open it.
I get an error - The file'http://some.location.on.the/internet/' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.
I originally thought it was a bad URL, but I sent myself an email with a valid link in and P-Outlook refused to open it.

The fix is to copy the URL into Pocket Explorer/Opera and open from there.

Update opera to the latest version which i think is 8.65 beta and this solves the problem

Cab files load as text ine PIE.

Does anyone know why some cab files open as atext webpage in PIE?
i'm trying to install supertasks 2.0 to my phone (no desktop pc nearby)
http://www.softwareandson.com/SuperTasks/download.php
It's a problem with the web page design. The cab file is not declared as the correct type on the web page. Unlikely that you can do anything to retrieve it on your PocketPC.
It downloads fine for me...strange.
Here's a trick: Right click on the item, and select "save link as..."
This should work.
HappyGoat - downloads fine for me too, on a *pc*
I think dah54 is right, can't do anything about it. Maybe Netfront will be able to d/l it.
I think its so stupid that a PDA is tied to a PC. It should be autonomous.

WM6 and Personal Exchange certificates

Anyone know if personal exchange certificates are now working in WM6? I'd rather not pay $100/yr if I don't have to...
I believe so, I use a personal exchange certificate and never had a problem with it in WM6...
Hmm, well I wasted last night trying to get ours to work. I was able to export the .cer and install it, but it kept saying "invalid security certificate".
One other item to note, our webmail address is as follows blahblah.wahwah.com/exchange.
Is that causing the problem?

I doubt it..
Are you sure the backend (exchange/isa publishing) is all correct?
Next up, you'll probably need to export the root certificate and import that on to your device as well as the cert thats been used to publish exchange. You can use owa to test all this... If you browse to https owa url you need to see all green (eg name matches, certificate valid (eg not expired), and trusted (including any root certs)). Ensure root certs are in the correct store when you import (I usually deselect the place certs automatically option).
The other thing is to check on how the cert was exported... I dont have the process to hand, but its on isaserver.org and MS....
All I've ever done is install the root certificate on the phone and everything works fine WM5/WM6.
All I've ever done is install the root certificate on the phone and everything is ok (WM5/WM6) although I'm not behind ISA
Your certificate name would have to match exactly what you have set up on exchange/server. In your example, certificate is named blahblah.wahwah.com... it has to be exactly the same name. So in your PDA the server name would be blahblah.wahwah.com. not blahblah.wahwah.com/exchange
Good luck.
Personal certificate you mean : Client certificate ?
-> work fine with YES an easy install (no need anymore complicate activesync process or Jacco dds....)
Woldcard certificate (*.toto.com also working fine!)
-> yes after a missing feature in WM5!
Ok, here's what I did.
Opened up my webmail page which is abc.defg.com\exchange
Clicked on the Lock and opened up the certificate. Under Certification Path it says abc.defg.com - no \exchange
Under Details I clicked on Thumbprint and Copy to File as a .cer
I named that file root.cer and put it in the directory on my 8525 and ran it, it installed.
I'm sure I'm missing several steps, but a lot of the threads are way over my head or not applicable to my situation. Any advice, or step by step would be greatly appreciated.

HELP...synchronize issue with microsoft exchange

I flashed LVSW WM6.0 ROM ( 3.30.0.9 version ) last night on my Hermes. After the flashing was done, the device was able to synchronize with the exchange server through my PC at the first, but it wasn't later. And the synchronizing is always failed with the exchange server through the GPRS later on. I checked the report and it reads
" Result: The server certificate on the server is not valid. Contact your Exchange Server administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server."
and provides a " Support code : 0x80072F06".
This never happened on the platform of WM5.
Can anybody help on this issue?
Thanks a lot!
I had a same issue at past week.
Please change the WINCE.NLS at the \winodws by Good WINCE.NLS.
Good mean is right wince.nls same as your localized version.
Have you been installed any programs with the WINCE.NLS?
If so, I hope above information is usefull.

I'm also having a similar problem. When I connect via usb I can sync with server. When I connect wirelessly, cannot sync. Get server name error. Do you have this file?

Hi YUKI-
Thanks for your input. Actually I'm using the good wince.nls said as without the good wince.nls Chinese is not readable. But the problem is still the problem.....Thank you all the same
Taking it back to first principals (assuming you have access to the server):
- what certificate is the server using? (one from your own CA or a third party one like verisign)
- has that certificate expired?
- if using a certificate from your own CA have you installed the root certificate on your phone?
- do the address on the certificate and the one you have entered on the phone match exactly?
- what happens if you turn off the SSL requirement on the server - do you get a different error or does it work ok?
- Do you have another phone you can test with? Failing that what about using Outlook Web Access on a PC over SSL, does that work okay without certificate errors?

Hi randomelements,
1. There is not a certificate the server is using. And there is never a certificate required when I used the WM5 on my Hermes. Also my colleagues in US is using the WM6 and there is not any certificate required.
2. Turned off the SSL requirement, there is another error report reading " Your account in Microsoft Exchange Server does not have permission to synchronize with your current settings. Contact your Exchange Sever administrator." and a new support code " 0x85010004" was given.
3.a couple of days ago I used WM5 on my Hermes and there was not any problem. Before using the Hermes, I used the Magician and there was not any problem either.
It works well that using Outlook Web Access on a PC over SSL.
Well...it looks to be a big problem^_^ thank you all the same randomelements!
What version of exchange?
If 2007, the integration with WM6 is tighter than 2003 with WM5 or 6. When I set mine up I had to alter permissions on the Exch 2007 web site. There are pointers on the MS website of you search on that error code and exchange 2007. I dont have the info to hand, but can look on my system tonight.

My situation is NEVER completed any ActiveSync via USB+PC and X01HT's Wireless connection. I think thats problem does not same.
And I am currently using japanese version crossbow. if you have another language with wince.nls, does not solved your issue with my attached a file.
Check the clock on your phone. A couple of times when I flashed I forgot to change the year and had my date set in 2006, which gave me invalid or expired certificate error.
I think I've got what the problem is. I flashed the black 3.01 ROM tonight. After the flash was done, I tried the syn immediately and it succeeded via the wireless connection. But when I replaced the original wincel.nls file with the one with Chinese supported, the syn was failed and I got the same error report.
The problem is I can't use the wincel.nls file without Chiese supported. What should I do?

fix: gmail - javamidlet

Ever since the new custel, lsvw, black 3.0 and etc... I can't get gmail to work well on any of them. I installed the new midlet fix and still nothing - anyone fixed the problem?
Do those use the Java applet?
If so and it's the same one as Custel 2.5 (not sure about the other ROMs):
1. Attempt to download the gmail applet from the Get Faster gmail link from http://gmail.google.com
2. After waiting for the Midlet Manager to complete, exit both the browser and Midlet Manager.
3. Open the Java applet and select the option on the Menu to Install from a local source (which should be there after it fails to download successfully from the google site; a .jad file sitting in My Documents).
I have the file on my phone. If you need it, please advise. Hopefully, this helps.

Could you please post the .jad file. Whenever i goto the site for the faster gmail it detects my phone as LG CU500 for some weird reason. And the one it downloads, the login button wont work.
Thanks in advance for your help.
^^^ You can easily tell it that you are not that phone and will give you the option to download the 'general' J2ME version.
I know you can do that because sometimes I change my phone to be seen as a PC and I get an error close to what you are getting.
Worse case scenario, you can find and download the app to you PC then transfer to your phone. It will take you only a few minutes.
Please try again. If not there are other sites that have the java app. No disrespect but don't act as a lazy noob.
It sees my Softbank X01HT as a Dopod 730 (something close to this). I have attached the file; hopefully, this is what you are looking for.
Rename the file to gm-Generic-Advanced-MIDP2.jad (in other words, delete the .zip extension; it is NOT a zip file).

Why midlet?
Isn't it more convenient to have gmail connect with the standard inbox rather than a java midlet? That way you can set it to check your mail in your specified time frame? I've had it working with all roms i've tried this far, (dutty, lsvw, black, and custel)
wow.. the midlet works fine - better than the version detected as LG when we download from gmail directly.

ActiveSync problem 0x80072F17 Certificates

I just updated my TP2 with the rom from the official htc website: ROM-versie:2.07.404.1 and now i'm getting the 0x80072F17 error when trying to sync with my companies exchange server.
Before it did work on rom version 1.88.404.3, which came with the TP2.
I know the problem is the certificate, but I do not care about the certificate, i just want to sync my calendar, contacts, and outlook email.
I cannot contact my system administrator (because I am one of them), and my company is not buying in the near future a valid certificate.
Can someone please help me making my HTC understand that I want to sync with outlook, but do not care about a valid certificat!!!
Most likely you are using a certificate from your own certificate server.
That's not a validated source.
Normally in a website you'll get a pop up on which you can choose to go on.
Your TP2 can't ask that question.
You'll have to export the root certificate from your internal certificate server to a .cer file.
Copy it to your device, and double click it in explorer. It will install automatically.
To be sure, reset your device, and you shouldn't get the error anymore.
Same Problem
I recently upgraded to latest ROM and the problem you describe emerged.
Please excuse my ignorance but the latest reply does not help me very much as I do not know how to do what you suggest. I seem to remember that for the last ROM version I was asked if I wanted to permanently trust the non valid certificate.
If anyone has a solution please inform us???
because of this problem i got back to an older rom (downloaded from htc site), and yes you are right, this older version just asks one time if you want to continue with an invalid certificate. choose yes, and i can connect with exchange with no problem.
why is the new version not asking this question?
i exported the certificate, uploaded the .cer to my phone, opened it, but nothing happened. now i only do not know if i tried to open the file with explorer or with resco explorer. can anyone confirm if this option will work?
You need to add it as a root certificate.
Follow these instructions:

Worked for me.
