I removed all of the CA and root authorities and would like to know which one I need to put back in order to use sync? A Few of them looked like they could stay, but there were to many that looked like just anyone could install a certificate on my tablet.

So, I would like the entity name and sha (s) encryption keys so I can reactvate yours. Thank you.

The technical information about the Authentication Server is documented: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Identity/Firefox-Accounts#Auth_Server

Certificate Signing process specifically is done with this part of the api: https://github.com/mozilla/fxa-auth-s.../api.md#post-v1certificatesign - I assume you would generate them there.
