I've had mixed success with CalDAV connectors for Android and a self-hosted server. The apps that I bought didn't support self-made certificates very well, or not at all (certificate pinning would be ideal).

The best way was to create a new CA certificate and use that to sign the server cert. But after installing the new CA cert on Android, I got a non-removable notification that my calls and data might be monitored. I did this on the train to a "hacker" congress, imagine how surprised I was about the warning...

Can anybody recommend a CalDAV/CardDAV server? What does the hosted Flock service use?




I have radicale installed on my server with a self-signed certificate. It stores data in standardized clear-text files and has good documentation on how to setup all sorts of clients.

I highly recommend it.


That warning is really irritating, and I get the security concern but the fact that there is no way to silence, minimize, or otherwise hide that notification in any way bothers me.

I don't understand why there is no way of telling it "yes, thank you, I put it there, shut up already, even for a short while!".


I read somewhere that it's a known bug that is being addressed. I'd like a fix too. My company wifi requires a cert installed and now the warning pops up on a regular basis.
