Hi,
I have an Orange Branded Desire.
I have made a goldcard for it, and then had flash it with latest HTC stock rom with success.
What I would like to know is since my Desire is now flashed with a stock htc rom, will i need my gold card for future flashing and/or rooting???
Yepp you will need it in every flash!
So does it mean my cid has not been changed by the flash of a stock rom?
If yes is there a way to change cid?

Cid is Tom Sawyer brother! (...)
Cid is an identification number that is used to identify your phone (branded or not)

If you use Gold card to debrand and then upgrade OTA to froyo on HTC desire stock rom you will need to keep the gold card in place for any future OTA upgrade.
It will remove root (assuming it completes). You don't need a gold card if still on the Orange stock ROM
Ah thanks I am on the orange rom I'm not bothered about root.

You need a gold card if your phone was branded when you got it
Ok forgot the detAils.
I have an Orange unlocked phone, means I use whatever sim I want. It was ota froyo updated.
I rooted using unrevoked3, so I can get rid of Orange crap, thus the stock rooted froyo ROM from xda was used. But when I try newest WWE stock froyo 2.29 I get this error.
So how come this unmoded stock from xda works without goldcard?

You can't, you need a gold card to change to ANY RUU other than the Orange one
Ok ill look into goldcard but why the stock rooted Rom workd from xda.
If I use goldcard OTA will work ? or I need to use goldcard everytime

Because it's a custom ROM, if you want to go to a stock WWE ROM you need a gold card. The OTA might work, you'll need to turn off signature checking in Clockwork Mod, but it likely cause issues
Ok thanks I'm mAking a custom Rom as stock possible now, or will try.

2.29 working fine now.

Stock or custom? Either way, glad you're working
Hey guys, I'm getting wildfire with Vodafone branding.
If I flashed a custom Rom, would it unbrand it, or would I have to use a goldcard method?
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
Custom ROMs will debrand it. But, you will probably have to debrand it anyway using a Goldcard, because AlphaRev X is not working on all branded Wildfire's bootloaders.
How would I make one?

Follow this guide, it will install a generic unbranded WWE ROM, as well as prepare your device for use with AlphaRev X, should you go for it:

Thanks, its gotta be rooted first to do the debranding, is there any way of doing this easy.

Before i start to root my phone, i would like to make a stock orange ruu. How does one go about doing this.
See if any of these ROMs are correct for you. http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace
You don't make a RUU. That is a a factory signed ROM.
Had a look their. I'm looking for an ORANGE Branded ruu. Not sure if any are??
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Ok so can I make a factory signed Rom from the phone I have??
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
So Orange would of been sent a RUU from I guess HTC and then they would just add there branding to that RUU??

Hi guys I have noticed in footballs' thread he recently added the RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed.exe, my question is will I have any issues flashing to that ROM from my current which is still stock RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.
And if not how do I flash that rom? I know its from a different CID but its English right...and it should work fine, Im eager to get JB on my device. Goldcards are out of the question (no sd card slot ... ) obviously.
I'd like to keep my device on an original ROM with S-on etc afterwards.
Thanks

You cannot flash another cid Rom without super cid. Period.

You can change it to an HTC Asia CID, not sure where you got that from.

You can't. There is no way to change cid unless s-off is achieved.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
You need an s-off one x to do that. But s-offing the one x is not yet possible so your best choice is to find an s-off one x. My hox is s-off, you can have it for a discounted price of 1000 dollars!
