Fro another thread "How I got my N900 back on https..."

After some further digging, I found this note on updating certs so I tried it: parse certdata.txt, transfer certs folder to MyDocs and run cmcli as said, still doesn't work

So out of the blue I decided to just google "isrg root x1" and check out Let's Encrypt Chain of Trust.
On that page I found root certificates along side with it's PEM files, there's another version with it cross-signed with DST X3 and that's something I never tried before as most of the certs on the device are self signed.

I downloaded it and installed it on the device, lo and behold, TMO now loads on my N900 without an error and my email now works again!

For good measure, I installed the ISRG X2 cert as well. Now my N900 on Fremantle is useful again.
But if you can't find help from this change your date in your device to 29. september and try again openrepos.
