Can you post a link to the instructions you used to install the cert? I ask because I noticed that when I've encountered a missing root cert from verizon, the directions we got included the steps:
11. On your phone: go to Start-File manager- Storage
12. Execute VZW_spaddcert.exe and select the certificate

I imagine those steps will just make the registry change but I'm not sure. I'd like to see the instructions you used.

Also, instead of generating a self signed cert you could quickly create a CA, sign the cert with the CA and upload the CAs public key. If you're a windows shop, that's pretty easy. Also, there are a couple free cert signers out there since you clearly aren't interested in identity validation (just encryption). Although, it's probably easier to pay the $30 and buy a go daddy cert.
