Hello. I tried to check for updates on one of my Android 7 devices and saw a pop-up notification with this message:
F-Droid: Unacceptable certificate...
Anyone else seeing this?
I remember that Let’s Encrypt cross-signed intermediate certificates are set to expire in 2024… But this affects not only websites, but also applications?
Thanks for the link. I’m afraid this doesn’t work for 7.1.2.
explain what you did and what happend
Also, this is for the default F-Droid repo or you added some other repo?
I didn’t do anything, that’s the point. In the morning I unlocked my smartphone and connected to wifi. A cross appeared next to the wifi icon… I opened the list of networks, and it said that I was connected to my network, but: “Connected, without Internet.” I opened the browser and the Internet works, but not all sites open.
Then I tried to update the f-droid repositories and received this notification. Yes are the default repositories.
try mobile data then
other wi-fi
maybe it’s a networking error instead
I can’t try mobile data… But other devices work fine with this wifi. In a nearby cafe with a different provider, everything is the same.
F-Droid on those other devices, that run Android 8 or later, is fine?
Everything is fine on Android 11
so you tried this? added the cert to your system? maybe restarted the device too?
F-Droid works fine on my Android 6 device (where I added that cert years ago), hence your issue is odd.
Yes, I added the certificate and rebooted. I didn’t see any results.
why some sites don’t open?
I don’t know… I can open the f-droid.org website without any problems and it will work fine. But I can’t open duckduckgo.com. I am greeted with the following message: “This site requires the use of a secure connection.” I have no idea what’s wrong.
then maybe your connection is … broken… somehow…
try a different Wi-Fi where duckduck works at least, then try in F-Droid Client again
I don’t know what it was. I had to reflash the device to fix this.
