How do I know if my Artemis is CID locked or unlocked?
Normaly all devices are cid locked, exept it was stolen
You could try the O2 Update if an error ocours it is locked.
And how can one unlock it?

Go in bootloader mode (SOFT RESET + VOL UP)
If in SPL there's the word "Olinex", your cid is unlocked

Actually your bootloader will say OliNex and the version.
If it doesn't, don't flash any roms as it means your device is not Hard SLP which is what protects your phone from getting destroyed.
Mine say's security unlocked in RED on the top of bootloader screen and spl-1.40.OliNex

You should update your Hard SPL to 1.93 found in my signature.
as i said the touch diamond was simlockfree when i bought it. also every touch diamond is securty locked? doesnt matter if it is simlockfree or not. i mean the bought touch diamonds hava always securty locked. in order to flash to a custom rom it needs to be remove the security, cid.
i did not use the olinex because it was simlockfree. how can i see whether it is cid locked or not.
thx

No you don't need to have your device "Security Unlocked" as the purpose of this is to use other devices radios. No phones are bought retail with Sucurity restrictions unlocked. Don't worry as this is Not necessary!
What is necessary is to put 1.93 Hard SPL on your device to flash a rom.
I downloaded an app called Goldcard Helper and I'd detects and generated a reversible hex Buber for the One-X virtual sdcard my question is would it work to take the next step and flash the resultant Goldcard img?

If you unlock your bootloader via HTC Dev this removes the CID and allows you to flash any RUU. Essentially exactly the same as the Goldcard tool does.

Mmmmm no i don't think that is the case, just look in the shipped ROM thread and see all the people with branded phones that can't flash different regions ruu.

Only speaking from experience. Mine was T-Mob branded, unlocked with HTCDev, CID showed as "None" then was able to flash the WWE RUU.

How did you know it was branded ? When it booted did have a tmobile logo ? Did you get the phone from T-Mobile or CPW ?

It had a T-Mob splash screen. And before you ask it's S-On.

Interesting, don't suppose you know what software version you were on before do you ? 401 is the WWE, mine is 206.
I tried flashing the WWE on my o2 branded phone after I had relocked my boot loader but obviously didn't work....I'm just trying it now after re unlocking it

Rubbish As expected that didn't work for me
I wonder why yours worked...
Could you have a look ( or post ) the ruu logs from the folder in the root of c ( on your computer ) as mine show in the install failing due to cid not matchinf

I used CID getter on my T-Mobile and it told me that the CID was T-MOB005. Even though it was seemingly not there looking normally.

The fastboot command to query it doesn't work for some reason and will always return None even if there is a CID set.

I think it's because the bootloader is unlocked.
Cid getter reports mine as o2__01

fastboot shows None as the CID for my One X which is still S-ON LOCKED and I know it has a CID because its a Orange UK branded handset. It just doesn't work for some reason. It isn't related to the security mode or whether it is locked, unlocked or relocked.

S-ON is different. I have unlocked my bootloader and I still have S-ON. Whenever you unlock the bootloader your CID is gone. I have read many owners of the One X that has the same result when they unlock the bootloader.

I know. My post was a reply to monkeyphonix who said they couldn't see the CID normally but could see it with CID getter. It is because getting the CID using fastboot doesn't work for some reason.

No, my bootloader is still locked and i also can't get cid from FASTBOOT but CID Getter gives me HTC_001
My device is a European unlocked version purchased from Expansys.

Regardless of the 'None' response from an htcdev.com unlock, you can get the CID of your device by using the following command:
fastboot oem readcid
This will show the OEM CID number - which is the one that controls which RUU can be flashed to your phone.
Hope this helps someone.

Ahh. So that is how you get the CID via fastboot.
I knew what my CID was anyway but here is what it should look like:
fastboot oem readcid
...
(bootloader) DEBUG: cid: ORANG001
OKAY [ 0.051s]
finished. total time: 0.052s
Obviously, once we get S-OFF the following command will grant SuperCID status.
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
I'm waiting on a couple of cables to arrive that will allow me to try out the Gold Card approach used on the HTC Mango devices - hopefully the One X will go into USB host mode?
Good afternoon staff, okay?
Ronne call me and I live in Brazil, I am newbie here in the forum and wanted to help.
I have a Htc v one that has the bootloader unlocked and would like to unlock it.
Is there any method?

For unlocking unlocked bootloader? no you can unlock locked bootloader or lock unlocked bootloader, but not lock locked bootloader or unlock unlocked bootloader
btw, when you're using translators, you have to control, how are they translating
Hello
I'm selling my HTC One M8. Currently the bootloader is unlocked, rooted, s-off and using super CID. The guy that wants to buy it is using a different carrier and my phone is locked to my carrier. Will the super CID unlock it for any carrier, and still function after bootloader is locked, unrooted and s-on?
Thanks!
