I flashed the developer edition firmware on my Rogers SuperCID M8.
Do I use the developer edition HBOOT or the Rogers one?

Hello,
I have AT&T unlocked phone with changed MID to be european unlocked version, but I'm thinking about changing MID back to DEV edition.
What are benefits of DEV edition?
Thanks
Morning All,
So now that my 1 year warranty is up I have S-OFF'ed my M8 and I would like to now convert the device into the developer edition of the M8. The question is what's the simplest way to go about doing this? After some Googling, I found this Conert One M8 to Developer Edition if I am on Lollipop does that make a difference to the guide? Also, if I change just the CID and boot into the ROM what would happen? Would I get an OTA or would it soft brick? Also, there is a USA Developer Edition which that URL is using, is there a European Developer Edition?
I am just looking for the simplest method to get to Dev Edition and leave it at that, majority of the guides I read all were made with KK in mind and I don't know if LP will make a difference.
Change cid
Change mid
Flash dev firmware
Install dev ruu
I Have HTC One M8 serial number starts with "HT". Available to Download Developer/Unlocked ROM in HTC USA website. Version 6.12.1540.4.
My Current Version is 4.16.401.13.
Any problem to update my device using USA Rom.?

No, as long as you are S-Off so that you can change your CID and MID.

HT doesn't mean you can install developer ROM, rather it shows the factory from which the phone was from. My Sprint Harman Kardon edition has HT serial number too. My first HK edition serial number was HT44RSF04393 and I got a replacement device after 8months with screen replacement with FA serial number HKmodel.
Is your phone a CDMA global phone or an international GSM? If it is a Sprint or Verizon version, there is no option to convert it to a fully international GSM phone.
This link explains the serial number: http://llabtoofer.com/2015/12/14/htc-devices-serial-number-explanation/
I think my phone is an international GSM phone. Any option to check
Phone = S-ON and you are stock NOT on the developers edition :
You can NOT use the dev edition firmware or RUU you can only run the ROM version of MM. You can NOT change CID & MID and fully convert and you can NOT take official OTA updates !
Phone = S-OFF
You can change CID & MID and you can change to developers edition firmware and RUU (fully convert to dev edition) and take future OTA updates !
Sums it up in big lines

Thanks for brief description
Hi guys, im people that live and speak italian
One question information:
I have HTc M9 International Model, S-Off with sunshine, rooted, with rom Viper 4.3.0, firmware 3.35.401.12 ; i want to update this firmware with 3.35.617.12 unlocked version!
My question is: Flash only firmware and radio with fastboot command or download latest ruu 3.35.617.12 and re-install all? I'm confused
I thanks for user that help!!!
I seriously doubt there are meaningful differences in those two versions, but being s-off, you only need to flash the firmware in download mode. No need for a RUU.
If you are asking difference between 3.35.401 and 3.35.617 the answer is nothing. 3.35.XXX.XX that is how you should check for updates. Android/Sense is the exact same on both of them, only difference is the area they are meant to operate in. The firmware difference depends on the area you live and network. It might help battery life or it might not.
X.XX.401 International (WWE) Model
X.XX.617 U.S.A Developer Edition
thanks guys, i'm sured that developer edition is newest and improve m9 in reason to firmware WWE. thanks, thanks thanks
I've been using the latest Developer Edition and ~1 year and it happens that some time to time it's stuck on the logo bootloader. I'm trying to find the RUU with a stable NO Developer Edition, any hint?
Thank you!
Change the cid to HTC-001 and flash 401 SKU. It's the euro wwe. Gsm only!.
