This is my first post, so apologies if this is in the wrong place or has been asked before (I have searched and found some answers, but none of these worked)
Basically, last night whenever I tried to use an application on my HTC HD2 I was getting the following error message:
"The file xxx cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one if its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
In searching for the solution, a lot of people are saying that I need to edit the reistry. (Specifiaclly HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies DWord = 0000101a - Change value from 0 to 1)
I have tried downloading the recommended registry editors on the forums (Resco Explorer etc.) but am unable to install because the "program is from an unknown publisher." I click yes to get pass this initial message, like I always have done in the past, and the following is displayed:
Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed beacause it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate."
I have also tried using a program recommended called CeRegistryEditor and using my PC via ActiveSync to edit the registry, but am getting an error message "Access Denied!".
Does anybody know any other way of editing the registry? Am I actually doing the right thing? Are there any security settings that I need to disable to allow CeReistryEditor to edit the registry?
This is really bugging me, I have only been without my apps for about 12 hours throughout the night but it is hard to live without them!! I REALLY don't want to perform a hard reset and will do anything to avoid this!
When I get this I just remove evertyhing to do with it on the phone and re download it (the cab file usually) and it seems to work.
thanks for your reply. I have tried this but when I try and reinstall I am getting the message: Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed beacause it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate.
I think that the security settings have been changed, but I cant see how to change them with editing the registry which I am struggling to do
Can I ask what app you are trying to install? Or is it any app?
Multiple Apps that were running OK yesterday, but not today. I think it is all the apps that I have downloaded from Omarket.... Omarket isnt working either!
Hi,
Any luck on this. I m also facing similar issue after installing Android on my HD2.
I have the exact same issue after running Android from SD card. No application (non-stock ones) are working anymore. Like 3rd party certificates are being blocked or something...
For everyone with this problem, download Mobile Registry Editor and connect your phone to your PC via USB, then start the Editor and go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies" and search for the DWord "0000101a" and change the decimal to "1", that will fix your problem. This problem happens to me if I "reboot" while in Android instead of turning the phone completely off and then back on.
Edit: Added link to download.
As a side note, I always did this to mine while running Windows Mobile, then booted Android after fixing the registry.
and when this is not possible
Hi,
i have the same issue after loading android from the sd-card.
But, i am not able to change the reg, access denied, also with ceregistry unlock tool.
So, what can i do?

Hi,
I also have the same issue after loading android from the sd-card. I have also re-installed the stock rom and the problem still persists. Im also unable to install any reg editors as keep getting the "not signed with a trusted certificate".
I read that a cooked rom may be a solution around this but I liked the set up I had and wanted to keep my original rom so any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lee
Exactly the same problem.
Non-stock programs not working after failed boot of android from SD card, and I'm unable to change any registry entries either. Practically I'm locked out of my phone, just the basic functions working. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
if forget where I originally found this link (its on xda some place)
http://www.internet-tools.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/sda_unlock.zip
but run this first and you no longer get the access denied when using the mobile registry editor , hope it helps.
I have the same problem, just remove the program that was not working, pull out your memory card , then delete the files in the sd card except the application installer, hard reset your phone, and remember to go to SETTINGS-UPDATES&FEEDBACK-ERROR REPORTING-DISABLE ERROR REPORTING, and turn off your phone, put in the memory card and turn your phone on and install the application one by one, the application installed will work as normal, Good Luck, remember to back up your data before hard reset

i tried this methode but unfortunately this message pops up all time:
"phone is not unlockable"
I am able to get the native hotspot working on rooted JUUS06252012 and bypass the "dial 611" message. I'm posting this right now via wifi tethering, on a prepaid plan with a data package.
Before trying to get the native hotspot to work, I did try a few apps first. WiFi Tether for Root works in WPA mode (configured as Epic 4G Touch), but it broke wifi completely after tethering and wifi stayed broken even after a hard reboot. Logcat said a wifi driver file was locked and could not be loaded. I had to factory reset to get wifi working again. FoxFi seemed to work at first, but force closed whenever a client connected.
The mod: I found two values in settings.db to be modified. As we all know, there are many ways to update a sqlite database, but here is one easy way, keeping in mind that the Pantech Burst factory rom lacks many things like BusyBox or the commandline sqlite3. Yes, you need to be rooted:
1. Install Andsen's aShell and aSQLiteManager (not SQLiteManager).
2. Run aShell, check root, tap File Explorer, go to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases, open settings.db, when prompted to open a copy, say yes and open with aSQLiteManager, tap table secure, tap data and tap "edit" for each of the below
softap_free_supported=1 (old value 0)
softap_entitlement_interval=0 (old value1440)
Then tap back twice. When prompted to commit changes, say yes and exit aShell.
3. Reboot and you can now use the native hotspot. Install a toggle widget for convenience.
*EDIT: with this mod, turning on hotspot from the 2nd level "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot settings" page works reliably, whereas turning it on from the 1st level "Tethering & portable hotspot" page would show the "dial 611" message. Many hotspot widgets work reliably as well, such as HotSpot Toggle, Hotspot Widget or many others.
EDIT Read through the thread for ICS

Did that and my phone is now stuck on boot screen. Removing battery didn't help either
_lost can you check to see if your guide can be updated for the new ICS release? or atleast put a warning up to let people know not to try if they are running ICS on their Pantech Burst?
After a lot of trial and error I have this working on ICS. I tried the free apps first and at first I couldnt even get the change to take. When I did by copying the file editing it then replaceing it the system would just hang on boot. I did get it to work though after having to wipe my device a few times. Now this may still work with the free programs im not realy sure as I figured id give the paid ones a try and got it working. I used the program root explorer. I copied the settings.db and pasted the copy in the same folder. Then I edited the copy in SQLite editor although it still couldnt edit the original.. Then in root explorer I renamed the old file by adding an extension to the end and renamed the new file to replace the old one. Then in root explorer i double checked that the permissions were the same as the old file and also..... (I THINK THIS WAS THE IMPORTANT THING BY THE WAY) I checked the ownership settings in root explorer it was already set to "system" just like the old file. I think the other programs may have been changing the owner of the new file causing issues. Anyway after rebooting it started right up and I can turn on wifi hotspot from either menu. On gingerbread it only worked from the one menu. I hope this works for you guys!!!!!!
by the way i used the original two edits from the first post

Hey thanks! This was the setting that did the trick for me on my Pantech Crossover (P8000). I had recently done the vendor upgrade to Gingerbread and lost root, but more importantly, SVTP's Wifi Hotspot & USB Tether Pro stopped working for me.
I rooted using pawaa's excellent guide and thought that would do the trip, but no such luck. Found this thread, bought SQLite Editor and made the aforementioned changes and all was well.
Guess I don't need SVTP anymore, but the widget works well, and I don't mind having paid for it for the month or so that it worked under Froyo. (Also, it was paid for out of my Nexus 7 $25 credit.) Anyways, just wanted to mention this in case anybody else was trying to get tethering working again on the Crossover after upgrading to 2.3.6.
I am having rooted JUUS03122012.
My Root/data folder is empty

2. Search Codes
3. List Codes
4. Tap on "softapactivation"
5. Launch code
6. Now we on SoftapHiddenMenu
7. Check on all checkboxes
8. Save
9. Reboot
10. Enjoy full tethering
Sorry for my bad english
This works on the new ICS update on AT&T

I tried all of the methods above in ICS and none of them work. Not only do they not work, but if you try to edit the com.android.provider.settings AT&T will block your incoming calls, disable all notifications for messages, and break the home button. I was not able to find away to fix this without reflashing the ROM. I tried repairing the permissions but it did not help. I could not simply change the settings back since it seems AT&T's program did that for me and nonetheless deactivated me.
I can't get this to work either. My phone was purchased as an unlocked device, I didn't realize some things are still locked. :'(
I tried multiple times. I am running the stock (rooted) Android version 4.04 Baseband version JUUS09032012. Everything was setup fresh, all I did was root the device, get my Google account logged in and install the Superuser app, aShell and aSQLiteManager. I didn't stop, disable or uninstall any apps. Then followed the instructions here carefully.
I also tried the "Secret Codes Revealer" method with no luck. But I did not get any popups requesting root access when trying that method, so I can't imagine it doing anything.
I really love the phone - it is everything I want other than the tethering restriction. Hopefully this will be figured out before I am tempted by the new Nexus phone to be announced soon.
I used root browser to make a copy of the database file, edited it with asqlite, then went back to root browser and renamed the copy to the actual database. Then I booted into cwm and selected fix permissions and it works fine. That was the only way I could get it to work.

i face the same problem but i decided to try it one more time
here is what I done
i use a sqllite editor premium
do a backup of the files
i use the root explorer and copy the settings.db and paste in the same folder
after that i used sqlite editor and then settings.storage
after that i change the following values
softap_free_supported=1 (old value 0)
softap_entitlement_interval=0 (old value1440)
entitlement_pdp _checked changed from 0 to 1
than sve it and replace the settings.db by deliting or renaming the original one
than change the settings -copy.db to the settings.db
and delete all the other files that exist in that folder except settings.db (delete .db-shm and .db-wal also)
or
replace all the files in the data/data/com.providers.settings/databases from the attachment
Just download the attachment from Post# 17 and use Root Explorer to overwrite/replace all the files in the data/data/com.providers.settings/databases from the attachment.
It works like Charm.
Thanks irbaaz
Hmm... I didn't touch "entitlement_pdp _checked" but it all seems to work anyway.

This works on rooted AND NON-ROOTED Pantech bursts.
This is so easy. I tested on 4 different bursts including mine. 2 rooted and 2 stock. , 3 on ics, 1 on gingerbread (just arrived) All unlocked. None using AT&T. 3 on Digicel Antigua 4GLte Network.
Thanks Almark for the lead. You're a life saver.

hi to all, i'm a newbie on this forum, and i know this may not be the right place for this 3d, but i don't have enogh messages to write on developer topic.
I've a strange behaviour on my galaxy S advance.
I've installed Harhjely 3.2 with cocore 8.2 and CWM, with HJ 3.0 all works fine, i've upgraded to 3.2 but tethering is not more working.
Doesn't work neither wi-fi and bluetooth tethering.
I found the problem but i don't know how to fix it.
essentially the problem is on the dhcp server,
I'm able to see wi-fi connection from different devices to my phone, i can see on the tethering table the mac address of my pc and the ip address reserved to it, but the pc doesn't acquire the address and after a lttle it assigns itself an ip from PIPA netwoek (169.254.0.0/16 ) and so is not able to use the phone to go to internet.
I tried different devices (many laptop with different OS, tablet and others phones), but no luck, dhcp server is not working properly.
Any idea how to fix it ?
still not working
i tried to update to 4.0 version of harshjelly, but no luck, tethering is still not working.
i put here a log taken with logextreme during tethering process (device is able to connect, phone seems able to give it an ip address, but no one ip address is released), so please if any of you is able to give me an hand i'll be extremely gratefull.
Tethering is crucial for me, if i'm not able to make it working, i need to revert to stock image that i hate, but tethering works...
Please help me:
many thanks
