Note The SPAddCert utility runs only on Smartphones that have the Unrestricted Application Security Policy. If your device has been restricted by the mobile operator, you will receive the following message:
This device is currently secured such that certificates cannot be added to the root store. For support please contact your device administrator.
For the SPAddCert utility to run on restricted Smartphones, it must be signed and distributed by the mobile operator. A restricted Smartphone is a telephone that uses a Restricted policy or a Standard Prompt policy. Contact your mobile operator for support.

Windows Mobile-based Smartphones implement an application security model that is based on digital code signing. Application security helps protect the integrity of the end-users device by not permitting the user to run programs that are from an unknown source.

The mobile operator company decides whether to implement application security before it brings a Smartphone to market. The mobile operator may change its policy decision at any time.
