[solved] do i have super CID?

hello,
I'm not sure if I have radio S-OFF and Super CID, and i have been looking for a way to check it.
The top line in bootloader says ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF
and I guess that means I have radio S-OFF can someone please tel my if i'm right?
And how do I check if I have Super CID I have been searching and everybody says to check system info in bootloader but I only get 5 options in bootloader:
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
IMAGE CRC
and I don't see system info or something simular
how can I check if the Super CID worked?
thanks in advance.

It looks like you have Radio S-Off but if you want to flash Radio's and get the System Info option to check Super CID you will need ENG S-OFF.
All the how to's are in the dev forum.
[EDIT]
I don't normally do this as I'm not here to search the forum for you, (searching is a rule YOU should NOT be breaking) but

thank you for the quick reply,
the EasyS-OFF program didn't work for me (it kept giving connection error when i allowed it on superuser) so i used AMT v1.2 to flash ENG-HBOOT and it worked perfectly now i have Radio S-OFF ENG S-OFF and Super CID
thank you for the info!

[Q] How can I change the CID of my S-OFF One X?

My phone is S-OFF and it is SuperCID(11111111), I found out that I won't receive updates if my phone has this CID. I want to change it to a\n unbranded CID where I can receive the JB OTA. I don't know how, though. Also, what CID do you think will receive the earliest JB OTA once it comes out? And if I am going to change my CID to an unbranded one, can I revert it back to SuperCID once I receive the update?

just run a RUU and that will make you s-on and with the RUU's CID...

That doesn't sound useful, why would you want to lose S-Off?
HTC_001 is probably the most likely to be first, but I'm not sure if the OTA will work. Do you have stock 2.17.401.2 and stock recovery?

yep i agree, i wouldn't ever ever ever flash a RUU only to get official updates! we will get the official update before it will be released worldwide

I am currently on stock 2.17.401.2 after flashing the RUU a month ago. Before that, I was on 1.15.401.1(!). Stock recovery? I don't know what that means, sorry. Anyway, I don't want to lose my S-OFF just so I can receive updates. I know s-off phones can change CID by fastboot blah blah. Something about writing a command, ugh, I'm not really sure.

You wouldn't even need to flash the RUU...
If you're S-Off, you could just use fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 if you really wanted too, which would change your CID to HTC__001 and keep you S-Off, but i'd say staying SuperCID is the best idea, and just flash one of the many JB roms that are out there.

I get that. But I am still in the process of learning things since this is my first Android phone. Things are still complicated specially because the tuts on inbstalling custom ROMs are all about S-ON HOXs. Anyway, if I change my CID to a normal unbranded one, can I revert it back to SuperCID?

Yes you could.
You'd just do fastboot oem writecid 11111111.
To get updates though, you'd need to have a locked bootloader, stock rom etc... You phone would basically become a Unbranded European One X. Not sure if flashing the update would put you S-On, which means you'd be stuck as a HTC__001.
Basically if you wanted to try Jellybean, you'd just have to flash the required firmware, followed by a custom recovery then flash the rom. You don't need to unlock bootloader because you're S-Off.

... and as an added bonus you don't need to flash the boot.img of a custom rom before flashing the Rom itself, as we s-on peeps need to. You can just flash the entire custom rom at once from the custom recovery.
I.E. you won't need a computer when you want to try another rom

That's my problem! There should be a thread about S-OFF phones and what to do with them. Haha.

Well to be fair, it's very rare to find an S-Off One X at the moment, so count yourself very very lucky!
You hold one big big big advantage over us all though, you can downgrade your HBOOT back to 1.12 if you didn't like Jellybean. Currently for the most of us, with compatible CID's, once we're on HBOOT 1.28, thats it, there is no way back which means things like CM10 etc doesn't work for us.

Actually, you can use CM10 with hboot 1.28, but you have to use the special boot.img posted in the CM10 thread. It works for hboot 1.23 and hboot 1.28.

[Q] How to upgrade JB Firmware with a S-Off HOX

Guys,
I'm trying to get my JB flasher tool to work with S-Off devices. (Mine is S-On so I can't test)
Can anyone with a S-off phone that's upgraded the FW let me know the procedure. There seems to be confusion about which commands work with a locked bootloader and S-off so don't speculate, only respond if you know it works.
Specific question:
If you have a CID of 11111111 does it need changing to a compatible CID from the androidinfo.txt? If so, how? Does the bootloader need to be unlocked?
Can the bootloader be unlocked without htcdev code? If yes, how?
Can all fastboot commands be run with S-off but a locked bootloader?
Thanks

DO NOT UNLOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER!!!!
You will have to add the Super CID to the android-info.txt before flashing but other than that it's the same process as S-ON users

As easy as that. Thanks:good:
PS So S-off will ignore the broken signature?
Also, if someone has already unlocked their bootloader (due to not realising the power of S-Off ), I assume it'll need to be relocked before installing the firmware.zip?
PS Can boot.img be flashed via fastboot if its locked on a S-off phone?

Also, can I replace the recovery.img with CWM in the zip, or even just remove it. Same goes for the boot.img

If you're S-OFF you basically have the same rights as someone with an unlocked bootloader plus more so you can flash CWM/boot etc. through fastboot without unlocking the bootloader. As you said, S-OFF ignores the signature. So long as it's a proper update.zip it should flash without issues (I should qualify this by saying I'm basing this on my HTC Sensation and what I could/couldn't do with S-OFF. If I had an S-OFF One X I could give you a 100% answer)

[Q] where can i find the latest primou RUU ?

hi , just got my phone from ebay and its a superCID one so it seem it cant find any ota , can anyone point me to the most recent RUU ?
or if anyone does have it on his disk can he upload that RUU on dropbox ? thanks in advance

Before anyone can suggest the latest of RUU for you, you need to give more details especially what your current software version no. is ... maybe you have the latest one that is why no OTA update for your device.

it is a demo unit , in a white box , it has superCID and S-ON , the version is 1.46.401.1

Never see a RUU with that no.
Make sure you take care of it, it is not easy to find RUU now as HTC is hunting down people who publish RUU at the moment. But still you can google for it, there are various site with RUUs.
I don't know much about SuperCID, previously you simply run any RUU to your device when you have a SuperCID.
What I understand now is that you need to change the CID to the RUU that you want to flash.
For example, you want to flash an Asia_WWE RUU, you need to change your CID from 111111 to HTC__044 then you can run *.*.707.* RUU. Then again say you want to flash a EU_WWE, you need to change the CID to HTC__001 first then only run the *.**.401.*
BTW, the latest for .401 is 2.22.401.1

HTCRUU has been taken down for now, due to HTC...right now there are NO ruu's to download unless someone has them somewhere

[Q] Was HTC__001, then 111111111, now HTC__621, HELP!

Hey all,
I got in a sticky situation. I am trying to flash on Cyanogenmod and it is proved to be difficult.
Right now, I am relocked, with S-OFF, Hboot, 2.14 and version 3.18.502.6.
I used to be HTC__001, then I used the tool kit to root and achieve CID 11111111. However, I wasn't able to flash Cyanmod because I wasn't a high enough HBOOT. So I used another toolkit to flash a higher HBOOT, well that flashed on the HTC__621 and really F'd stuff up.
Eventually I recovered and I was able to boot in my rom, but now I am looking to get to a point where I can flash Cyanogenmod.
I assume I have to go through htcdev again to get new unlock bins because I am on a new cid? Could I simply try flashing the stock RUU for Evita (I assume it is Evita because it is the ATT version of the HTC One x?)
Any help would be greatly appreciate as this situation is beyond anything I can find help with on the forums.
Cheers!

Technically, my phone is a HTC__001, but it says HTC__621.
Is it possible to use this RUU since I am S-Off?
RUU_Evita_UL_ATT_US_1.44.502.1_Radio_0.15.3201.09_release_249105.EXE?

I tried flashing the above RUU, but I got error 131: CUSTOMER ID ERROR. I assume because I am CID HTC__621... Anyway I can change this back to HTC__001?
Cheers!

Wrong forum, this is the international hox forum. Not the evita (at&t) hox XL forum.
