Daniel, thank you for the SyncML survey! There is a solution to the SHA2 problem with the older Symbian phones (S60v3).
Nokia put out a fix: http://dl.nokia.com/ns/symfix/networking_improvements.SIS See this post on the Daily Mobile forum for the details: http://forum.dailymobile.net/forums/symbian-3-symbian-anna-and-nokia-belle-forum/97708-rid-time-certificates-post1167287.html#post1167287 More and more sites will be moving to SHA2 certs. Let's keep those classic Nokias in service!
