hello guys. i wanted to install a crt certificate to my phone. the problem i had it was a crt certificate. after googling and fail with every attempt i had an epiphany and i will share it with you.
copy the certificate you want to install on your sd card
To install a certificate you will need opera mobile browser install on your phone(i have version 12)
open opera and then type in the address bar /sdcard to access your sdcard (alternative you can write file://localhost to access your root directory)
opera has a bulit in basic file manager. find the certificate on the sd card (or anywhere you placed it) and click on it. opera will prompt you if you want to install it or not. and you are done!!!!
i havent checked it for other formats exept crt but i guess it will work for most types of certificate. if you find a type of certificate tha don't work with opera feel free to comment it!

Hey guys, got it! http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?...market://search?q=pname:com.nitrodesk.nitroid
It's on the market. Works perfect, it has great design and it's exactly for our problem. I did have some issues with the authentication because the exchange allows only WM devices but the developer was so kind and helpful to find a solution.
It has 5 days trial. You can try if it works with your exchange servers.
The app is simply amazing allowing you to install 2 different types of certificates.
Will buy the license for sure.
Finally!
I concur, Nitroid's "Touchdown" works wonderfully. And I cannot say enough about the tech support. In the early versions (which were a bit buggy but still worked well) they staff was responsive and helpful in what turned out to be a very stupid config error on my end. They were willing to help me troubleshoot multiple times (thru e-mail but extremely fast, I have a gmail thread with about 6 or 7 responses in a row in one day). When all was said and done I was left with a "now that's how you handle a frustrated customer!" feeling, in a word, they rock!
P.S Touchdown allows you to choose which folders from your server you wish to see if your like me and don't have everything flooding your inbox. That was a big issue for me on the old work email app from the earlier Hero roms.
Great! will test during these days then!
.cer files import SUCCESSFULLY to get exchange sync
Just got a Sprint HTC EVO running Android (GREAT PHONE!!).
Found out from several posts that there is a function
Settings -> Security -> Install from SD Card
that imports .p12 certificates from the root of the SD Card.
Found out that it recognizes and successfully imports .cer certificate files too!!.
[Warning, you can use usb to copy the certificate to the root of your SD Card, but be sure to disconnect otherwise the "Install from SD Card" will be greyed out.]
hi Kathey
I managed to copy and install the certificate following your instructions but it is still impossible to download attachements can you do it?
I don't know if the certificate was recognized by my HTC Desire.
I've tried everything and I am so disappointed i really need my connection to exchange to open up the attachments.

@kathey: Just an addition
.cer certificates are normally encoded in DER/binary. Android cannot read these files!
You may need to convert the certificates to Standard PEM (normally with .crt file extension).
I was able to import a PEM BASE64 certificate I exported from the Windows MMC (certmgr.msc) into my G2 after changing the file extension from .cer to .crt

Has anyone used these certificates to read encrypted email successfully on the Android, I can install the certificate from SD card, but cannot decrypt encrypted email, I could do this on windows mobile 5!!! Am I missing a step or funciotnality not available yet on Froyo 2.2
I was trying to install .cer and .crt certificates onto my HTC Desire and it kept saying "No certificates to install" when selecting the files in the root folder of the SD card. Then I generated a .p12 format file, which seemed to work. I don't know if it was because of the format readability or the earlier files were corrupt. Might be helpful.
the procedure: Settings > Security > Install from SD card (u should see the certificate files here if any present on your SD card root folder).
Cheers.
You can check your corporative email using a certificate file with SecureEAS app, is on the market, and it's free.

I know this app. It's just a vpn client.
And this cisco client required certificate to be installed to setup client properly.
And the question is how to get this certiificate? Where can I get it or generate ?
From the cisco router?

Ever since I moved from Windoze Mobile 6.5 that seamlessly handled certificates, the only solution Ive found for encrypting email is using Touchdown
Great. Tks alot. I was success.
Hi,
To gain access to WIFI at university I have to login with my user/pass credentials.
The certificate of their website (the local home page that asks for the credentials) is not recognized as a trusted certificate, so we install it separately on our computers.
I want to know how to install such certificates on Android, I have HTC magic and I came through this question which seems the same problem but the solution is specific to exchange server and not the browser http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551512
This is the details of installing the certificate from the university's page [LINK]
if you are rooted, download wifi helper (its free) from market and it should help you configure your wifi with custom cert files.
Hey,
I stumbled onto this topic as I had the problem (but on the Droid, Android v2.0). I then figured out how to do it and made a tool to make it easier. I call it RealmB's Android Certificate Installer. It basically gives your Android's web browser the correct HTTP headers to make it launch the CA certificate installation wizard.
Hope this helps,
Brian
I used Android's built-in certificate manager.
1. Just drop your certificate file onto the sdcard/download folder.
Note: Keep in mind the manager looks for .p12 and/or .crt files. I had a .cer file, but it was PEM formatted so I simply changed the extension.
2. Go to settings-> Security & Privacy -> Install from SD Card
Note: I use the MIUI rom, so millage may vary a bit on other roms
Done! Enter your credentials password, or create a new one if you didn't have one already, and you're all set!
Thanks MrNago
renaming .cer to .crt really makes me being able to install it. Life can be so easy ... (MIUI 2.3)
I was looking for a way to do this exact thing, and found a (potentially) easier way to install the certificate. If you have access to a web site, you can just put the .crt file on it, go to the site, click the file and voila... It installs on the device.
Worked like a charm since I do not have an SD card with me, but I needed to install the certificate.
Thanks for the comments above. I had a .cer file, and renaming it worked like a champ as well.

Thanks, this works.
To install a browser certificate into a pre-ICS ROM, use Portecle to add it to /system/etc/security/cacerts.bks.
Notes:
- obviously, ROOT is required to do this
- the keystore p/w is changeit
- In ICS a certificate can be simply added via Settings
The problem is only old stock browser sees installed certificate. This browser doesn't exist on Jelly Bean for Nexus 7. Google Chrome is default browser here.
Anyone knows a solution to this?
Thanks

The solution could be to wait until the bug in Chrome is fixed.
web security
Web certificate and web site security have much need for everyone. IF any one have want web project and security you should hire developers.
I serve a few webpages from my home. I use an OpenSSL certificate. On my previous phone I was able to install the cert onto my phone so that I don't get the "untrusted connection" in my browser.
For some reason on the G3 my .cert file shows up grayed out when I select it. Does G3 support only certain formats? I currently do have a key guard enabled.
edit: I guess I need to create a *.crt certificate in x509 format, then it lets me pick it, but it does not appear in my user certificates folder after I add it...

I always put my certificates into system/etc/security/carets folder with r-w-r-r premisson and it works without a keyguard.....or change the file extension to .cer and it'll install but u'll need a pin/password
Before I begin, what I'm trying to accomplish mainly, is to locate the folder(s) that an app called Food Fantasy installs when you download directly from Google Play, in order to rename the folder for a modded version to allow to connect to Google Play Games or Facebook. I had seen tutorials for that for other games, such as Last Day on Earth: Survivor, but I even tried downloading the game myself for comparison, and while its folder is accessible by PC, Food Fantasy's is not (except for with the mod I have).
That said, if someone can still help me with this, then I would be glad to provide such supplementary instructions for someone else's in a video I am planning personally.
For this past day and a half, I have just been trying to root my phone (a Redmi Note 5), but there is one part where I am stuck. My phone was already unlocked when I received it, and I managed to make my way up through step B-11. However, then my phone asks for some kind of password in order to decrypt the information in question, but while someone online specifies this as the password you yourself install, I tried to install one, and it didn't work.
Quora: How do I root a Redmi Note 5 and a Redmi Note 5 Pro
(See Tushar Jain's instructions.)
So, I tap "Cancel," and then "Install". I have seen instructional videos in which the phone displays the following folders, which I myself am able to access in a folder called "Internal shared storage" through my PC, under "sdcard", but those don't appear there for me:
-Alarms
-Android
-backup
-browser
-DCIM
-Download
-MIUI
-Movies
-Music
-Notifications
-Pictures
-Podcasts
-Ringtones
Meanwhile, sdcard shares a directory with the following folders, which I cannot access through my PC, which prevents me from transferring files from PC to phone anywhere I'd be able to find them:
-acct
-cache
-config
-cust
-data
-dev
-etc
-external_sd
-firmware
-license
Does anyone know of some way to restore the Downloads folder back under sdcard in TWRP, or what kind of password I'm supposed to enter in case I previously created the wrong kind?
To fix this you have to wipe data partition. And install no encrypt zip file so that it doesn't ask you for password.
You can find file online. Sorry I'm lazy
