Folks.
I've searched everywhere and I couldn't find the right answer for it.
I just got an M9 on Vodafone Ireland which turns to be the same as Vodafone UK,
but I want to receive the Update straight from HTC or WWE or Developer Edition as its the same hardware, there should be a way to do it!!
Is there any chance to convert my Vodafone M9 into International Version??

Unlock your bootloader (if not already done), get S-OFF, change your CID to an unbranded one (fastboot oem writecid HTC__001) and flash the corresponding RUU (latest unbranded RUU; instructions can be found in the google sheet in my signature). You may need to install some OTAs afterwards to get to the latest firmware version.
For the developer convertion you may want to take a look at this thread.

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?
So, I bought my HTC One X from Virgin Australia, which is a subsidiary of Optus Australia, thus I always thought I was supposed to use the Optus RUU. However, when I checked my CID, it turns out it was HTC__023, which is the international unbranded CID, so I'm not sure if I still can use the Optus RUU. My version-main is 1.29.728.12. Is it still fine to use the Optus RUU? If not, which RUU should I use?
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_SEA_WWE_1.29.728.12_Radio_1.1204.105.14_release_261350_signed.exe
Thank you .
Hello all, I got this silly question and search out the forum but did not found some answers..
I bought my phone in Hong Kong with CID HTC__622 in April 2012. But I am living in Europe.
So in the meanwhile i have unlocked my phone and flashed InsertCoin Evolution on it.
I want to go back to stock to get the JellyBean version. I am so confused what RUU,.. etc. I need.
To be more clear: What do I need for a asian phone used in Europe?
Here are the settings i got from fastboot and hboot:
version-main 1.29.708.9 (from fastboot)
HBOOT-0.94.000
RADIO-1.1204.104.14
I am trying with this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859714
Should I use the RUU 1.29.708.9 Asia HK or use a Europe version?
1.28.708.9 is the one, get it from htcruu.com
Then install the 2.17 OTA and wait...
Ok guess half the globe is waiting for it

Hi,
I have been searching for an RUU for the australia optus branded HTC one V (CID 980 or OPTUS_001) but have had no luck.... does anyone know where I can get it? I would be eternally grateful as my one V constantly reboots due to a radio update ota...
Have since rooted and installed many different custom roms with no change in the outcome... so i unfortunately need the RUU otherwise the phone is going to have to become a paper weight.
I've also tried many other RUU;s for different CIDs but with no luck (they all say wrong CID).
I would even be prepared to pay someone if they needed me to!!!
check the htcdev website. if an ruu was released for your device,it would be there.
There's no RUU for OPTUS001 CID as of what I know.

Ok thanks guys. So am I right in saying that there is NO way I can change my CID (to 111111) because its not possible to gain S-Off on the HTC One V?
Then this means there is no way I can use another RUU to revert the phone back to stock because it will only accept the OPTUS001 RUU?
Hi, so i just bought an htc m8 from ebay and when it arrived i found out its verizon and its in verizon store demo mode, i already reseted it and the app just keeps coming back, how can i get rid off this?
S-off the device, change cid and flash a wwe ruu like the 4.16.401
Or send it back because you got ripped off !
Is the cid HTC__002 ?
extra help pleasee

Hey! i didnt understood any of what you said Could you help me? i can try to learn!
oooof tough one .....
S-OFF = Security off
Means all partitions of the phone that are usually locked down for modding are unlocked now, to change the model id (mid) and region codes (cid). Also for changing the phone from carrier lock to unbranded phone.
S-off is available via www.theroot.ninja
Then you have to change cid to a verizon one (non demo cid) and flash a Verizon RUU.
Comes to think of it that a Verizon might not be able to go WWE, I'm not into Verizon devices.
But that's the story in a nutshell. How to change cids can be found in the general section in several tutorials. Or ask/read in the specific Verizon subforum for the M8. The device has its own section !
