Help changing MID and CID - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[**Solved** ]
Hi, I've been on xda forum for a couple of years.
Since HTC Desire HD way back in day of Android Froyo.
Owned a few HTC phones, Nexus 5 plus Samsung Note 3 & Note 4.
Plenty experience of rooting and flashing.
Including changing MID (Model id) and CID back and forth
EG changed M7 WWE to Google phone edition.
My problem is I own M9 hima WWE
Model is 0PJA10000
CID HTC__001
I am S off and unlocked.
I changed to hima att by changing mid to 0PJA11000
CID changed to 11111111
I did this to allow mm to be installed via USA developer ruu.
Now WWE version 3.35.401.12 is available I was trying to change back to original mid 0PJA10000 & CID back to HTC__001
using usual command
Fastboot (HTC_fast boot) oem writeMID 0PJA10000
& fastboot oem writeCID HTC__001
It appears to execute commands but doesn't change mid and cid
Any help appreciated
PS I have previously changed my M9 mid and cid to developer edition and back to WWE (.401)

If you change the mid and cid wouldn't that bork the software currently on it seeing as the software is locked?.

No the intention is to change mid and cid back to wwe then flash .401 firmware then rom based on WWE version of marshmallow

Super cid ?

Having s-off'd, unlocked and "Super cid'd etc, can the original cid, HTC__001, be returned using the same commands ? Obviously changing the 11111111 to HTC_001 in the fastboot command.
Don't intend doing it, just curious.
Thanks

Change MID/CID to International WWE.
CID: fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
MID: [how to] change your MID without an eng bootloader Select HTC Europe MID.
AT&T MID = 0P6B12000(Same as Developer Edition) , WWE International MID = 0P6B10000.
If you want to convert your device to another you must make sure to have all the things checked and sorted, just restoring a x.xx.401.x won't "convert" it, it just makes it a "custom ROM". AT&T is slow in their updates so your firmware is probably also outdated like hell.

Try flashing the firmware again and restoring a backup for the device.
Or run the RUU: HTC One M8 European Signed RUU 0P6BIMG.zip

Will changing my CID allow updates?

Been an eternity since I used HTC devices in this way.
I have a demo HTC One M8, and have S-Off and changed the CID from HTC__002 ot HTC__001 in order to stop the demo content from installing itself. I then installed the latest Lollipop RUU.
As I have changed the CID, will this device now receive OTA updates as a standard device would? The RUU I flashed is the one the HTC__001 models would have received.
Yes it will

Stuck in RUU mode

I got my new M9 a couple of days ago and unlocked it via HTCDev.com
Installed TWRP, rooted it any applied sunshine S Off
Changed cid from O2___102 to HTC__001
and the MID to international
Downloaded the latest M9 Marshmallow RUU
I tried to install the RUU but got error 151 and got stuck on the install screen
I'm unable to reboot
No fastboot available
Did I brick my phone?
The only existing MM RUU is for the unlocked/dev edition of the M9 (which is not the same as the international WWE version with the SKU 401). clsA wrote some instructions how to convert if you're phone is S-OFF. And no, you didn't brick your phone as long as the RUU didn't start flashing anything (which shouldn't have happened if you faced error 151). Just close the RUU and use the fastboot command fastboot reboot. Or press and hold the power button and both volume buttons until the phone reboots to bootloader.
Since I'm curious: To which one did you change your MID? The German O2 branded M9 already has the international MID.
i messed up the CID for the Dev version and the MID was wrong as well
i changed my CID to BS_US001 and my MID from 0PJA10000 to 0PJA11000
i just panicked because i was unable to power it down, and thought i would need to wait a week till it runs out of power, which it did after about 15h with continues screen on time in RUU bootscreen
but thanks for the advice
