Have u tried the RUU from your operator,
let me explain i had a magic 32A from Vodafone, rooted the phone using a gold card, got some issues with the phone, before sending it to Vodafone, runned their RUU got the phone branded again
With My Desire, just finished the unroot today with an RUU
i have desire SLCD S-off which i need to unroot for warranty purposes. i have tried RUU files from shipped roms website . both 2.29 WWE Ruu and .210 WWE Ruu .
on both im getting this Error 131 Customer ID error.
i dont get it. i bought factory unlocked HTC desire and it doesnt have and carrier branding. Nor did i use any gold card when i rooted my phone using unrevoked.....
any one have a clue how to unroot my phone?
hboot is 0.93 version
Edit : Turns out it was a Vodafone desire... used the RUU provided by EddyOs and its done.... thanks Alot to EddyOS
Can you still use your phone? If so, just create a goldcard now and rerun the ruu.

Where'd you get the phone and which ROM did you use?
EDIT: Try this one:
http://hotfile.com/dl/80036791/8a6c...5.09.05.30_2_release_143921_signed.exe.ht ml
It's the Asian RUU, unbranded but regional

i can use the phone .... but it was not carrier logo phone. it was non branded.
do i still need to use gold card .
secondly if i use gold card and flash the WWE ruu and skip tht 131 error is there any risk of bricking?

i got it from a local store but i once put up a question on htc asia website (they ask for phone IMEI number) .... they sent me a mail saying my phone is UK version so i need to contact the customer services of htc uk. when i contacted them they replied
and its not carrier labelled ... i never had to make a gold card to root it in the first place
just tried the downgrade utility... it days i need goldcard.....
device CID is VODAP001.....
so i should just make a goldcard and install 2.10 Ruu WEE rom or do i need to look for some specific rom of some specific carrier?
also if i need to download any specific carrier branded RUU will it relock my phone to that carrier after flashing RUU? if so how to stop that.
thanks for your replies
That's a Vodafone handset, try this one:

Vodafone stopped branding the phone after the first FroYo update but it still have a Vodafone product code so you still need Vodafone RUUs

thank you very much for the link. do i need to worry about phone locking to vodafone network after RUU install? i dont have vodafone sim with me at the moment?
No, their phones aren't sim locked (or shouldn't be)

Can anyone tell me where i can find a rru for Rogers?
Hello,
i hope i'm in the right section now.
I need to send my T-Mobile branded DHD to htc for a warranty repair and i need to revert to stock.
I have a couple of questions about that:
1) If i just run a RUU i will still be S-OFF, so what do i have to do before i run the RUU? Something special to do because ENG S-OFF?
2) What about SuperCID? I think i needed to change it during S-OFF Process (i don't remember, sorry)
3) What RUU can i use? I already reverted my HTC Flyer and there i needed the exact RUU which it was delivered with (i think because of the HBOOT version of GB / HC). As i don't know what the delivery Software version was (buyed it when it just came out) i don't know which RUU i need.
Thanks for help!
http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/htc_d...nd_auslieferungszustand_wiederherstellen.html There is all you need (assuming that you are German).
I used the above posted manual and had no warranty problems!
Good Luck
Thanks, then i'll try it.
What is RUU?
I have a unlocked Inspire 4G(att, bought it rooted of ebay) but does the tutorital from that website work for me too?
Hi
Bricked my old 16gb HTC One M8 - sending to HTC for repair tomorrow.
Ordered a replacement 32gb HTC One M8 from Hong Kong. It was billed as 'new' but on arrival it appears to be S-OFF but locked. Full bootloader details below:
*** LOCKED ***
M8_UL_CA PVT SHIP S-OFF
CID-11111111
HBOOT-3.16.0.0000
RADIO-1.15.2133156.UA13G
OpenDSP-v38.2.2-00542-M8974.0311
OS-1.54.401.5
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Mar 22 2014,00:53:32.16037
Whenever I try to update OTA, it tells me my phone is not stock and the update doesn't install. I just want to get the phone back to stock with the latest OTA firmware, nothing more. What would my best course of action be here?
I'm no expert but I did purchase a used M8 last week with similar status, which was able to return to (almost) stock.
First, I think your super cid (11111111) is stopping you from any OTA update. Change that to reflect your carrier.
If you are still not able to check for OTA update after that, you need to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP or CWM boot loader, and flash a backup of stock Rom from your carrier.

M8_UL_CA. You are on AT&T, correct?
You can download the latest AT&T RUU here.
Download it onto your PC. Hook up your phone and open command prompt. Direct it to your ADB folder, then enter these commands.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot rebootRUU waiting for it to boot after each command.
Then run the RUU download by double clicking on the download, and follow the prompts given.
You will have to run it twice. The first time will not install the whole package, the second time finishes the process. This is normal.

I'm not with AT&T. I bought the phone carrier unlocked - I use a Three mobile SIM. If the phone has been made S-OFF and carrier unlocked then I'd like to return it to a stock unlocked model if possible...

Hi - I don't have a carrier - I bought the phone on its own, supposedly carrier unlocked, using an existing Three mobile SIM that I have.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a suitable SuperCID I could try?
Super cid (11111111) means you can flash any rom manually, but no OTA update.
If you want OTA updates, you either pick a carrier and use its cid, or use the GPE (Google play edition) cid. GPE means no HTC added stuffs, like sense 6.
Either way, Google for the cid numbers.

My last phone was a stock HTC which I converted to GPE. I got fed up with the phone and tried to revert to stock, but messed up. While HTC fix that one I'm trying to update this replacement... getting a bit fed up with non stock HTC phones now to say the least!
Will changing my CID to something like HTC__001 and rebooting risk bricking the phone?
My HTC M8 also has S-off, and I have no problem changing the cid to whatever I want with the toolkit on xda.
Running OTA updates, on the other hand, is more risky to me since I didn't know the history of my device. I chose to flash a nandroid backup via TWRP. (No RUU published from my carrier). Then I re-rooted the stock rom, retuned back to stock recovery, removed the "modified/tampered" status, and locked the boot loader. I left the S-off status, which is the only non-stock.

The guy that sold me the phone suggested I flash this RUU to the phone. It appears to be a Brighstar US RUU... which just confuses me even more.
"i have find a way to fix your problem, its very simple, but requires your attention to the following details
follow what this link tells you
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/"
What did you ask from the seller? Was it just something "stock and unlocked"? The US rom quote was definitely stock. (Sim) unlocked or not is independent of the rom. Your phone could be locked/unlocked regardless of the rom you use.
All unmodified version from HTC are stock, including GPE. You need to first decide which carrier you want your phone to be "stock" for.

I've just spoken to someone in HTC USA Customer services - the phone is formerly an AT&T contract phone. She told me that I'm better off returning the phone to the seller if I want regular OTA updates.
So either send it back and be without phone for a week or so, or try and return it to factory stock myself. Tricky one.

OK so in theory, I could change the CID to Three UK, and find a Three UK RUU and convert the phone into a stock unlocked three UK one that works with my sim...?

It looks like my best/safest option is installing the Developer edition RUU - but I am on a mac. Does anyone have the correct Zip file of this?

I don't think the ROM update exe will run in Mac. You'll need to find a Windows pc for this, or try virtual machine running Windows on your mac.

all the files you need to convert to DE are here >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=21320
This guide may be easier to convert to the DE as it used RUU. No custom recovery and s-off required.

If you ordered it from Mainland region then most sellers do S Off there even if the phone is new but if you wanted S On you could have talked to the seller. It's trend over there before getting a new android phone almost 90% sellers sells S OFF and Rooted new devices in almost all major Smartphone brands.
Edit: Yes, M8_UL_CA is definitely (AT&T) What country do you belong to? If you're based in the US then just run official HTC AT&T RUU and you will be able to get OTA updates in the near future.

Actually, it is AT&T, T-Mob, plus Telus and Rogers (Canada, I'm on Telus).
I see he is unbranded(?) now. The first answer was assuming.
@billyboy77 Your radio version is WWE. Sorry I didn't notice that before.
Download the International WWE RUU here.
You will be able to flash this to get to stock since you are S Off and superCID. It will bring you up to the latest firmware. No need for OTAs. Back up anything that is important to you before running the RUU, because it will wipe your device.
hm... Seems like you guys are really trying your hardest to make this more difficult than it needs to be. Having S-OFF he can practically make his device any device he wants it to be, T-Mobile, AT&T, Unlocked, Developer Edition, surely any GSM based carrier/unlocked version.
What's the problem? Unlock Bootloader, Get a custom recovery, Get Root, Change your MID to the one you want, Change your CID to the one you want, Restore a backup for the one you chose, run OTA's...
"OMG I'm S-OFF and bought unlocked but I can't get OTA's because my phone WAS an AT&T and I'm not on AT&T I'm on Three"

After what happened with my last phone, I'd rather not muck about with unlocking, rooting or any of that balls. Just a stock OS with regular updates will do me just fine (until the new HTC comes out anyway)
