Hello dear friends,
I bought a HTC One M8 from China. The phone is originally made for USA T-Mobile but it comes with a changed RUU with Android 5.0.1 which can not be updated. The MID is 0P6B13000 and CID is changed to supercid already (111111111). I would like to install on it a European RUU (latest version) originaly made for MID 0P6B10000. I don't know if there is any actual difference between 0P6B10000 and 0P6B13000 or if their RUUs can be exchanged with one another. Can I already download a European RUU and directly install it? Should I not do it? Should I change MID and CID as those of an European version? Or should I restore the factory CID and leave the MID as it already is? I have also read that before installing a last version RUU I have to update the firmware, is that correct? If anyone with good experience can give me good advice and if possible usefull links of tutorials and downloads I would much appreciate it.
Thank you in all advance!

To flash an RUU, you need to pass CID check and MID check. SuperCID means you will pass any CID check. But you still need to pass the MID check. That means, if you want to flash the Euro RUU, you need to change the MID to 0P6B10000.
Guide on changing the MID is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708581

That is a slightly complicated question. Euro version is probably desirable for most folks, since it removed the T-Mobile branding (exception might be if you are actually using T-Mob US as your carrier, and want WiFi calling).
The other issue would be, what bands does your carrier use, and which version supports those bands (as flashing the RUU will change band support). Again, for many folks Euro RUU is probably better. But it depends on you carrier (what bands they use for 3G and LTE).

If you want to flash an RUU to update from LP to MM, then yes that is true that you need to flash the MM firmware before the MM RUU. Otherwise, the RUU will fail with Error 155.
Don't you have to s-on before using the RUU also?
You also don't need to change your mid, just change it in the android-info.txt unless you plan to use international roms to get the full benefits (some Roms setup based on mid)

This is interesting question.
I know that when we got S-OFF using Sonic's Java Card, it gave us S-OFF/Super CID/ and Super MID.
I would think that changing your phone to Super CID, and not sure if there is a way to change your phone to Super MID, but that might be worth a try.
It would seem if super MID you would not get that error any longer.
hey, i'm trying to convert my htc one to wwe (x.x.401.x.x)
is this possible? i mean went s-off and unlocked bootloader
flashed a nandroid backup (with stock recovery) of 2.22.401.5
but i still cant get OTA updates (my original cid was HTC__044 and i changed to HTC__001)
once i loaded the sys and ran system update it said my system is modified
and cannot be updated.
is this even possible? i want to convert it to full stock just wwe because
my region doesnt get any OTAs....
thanks for the help!
This is out of the topic, but would you mind telling me which method you used to get your phone S-OFF?? What version were you on when you rooted? I'm trying to achieve what you're doing! It's really hard to have an Asian M8
Used sunshine to s-off with 2.22.707.4

Hello,
I have the unlocked version of the M8 (I believe...) It's a European model and is unlocked to all carriers.
My CID is HTC_001 but when I go to install the RUU that was released not long ago I get the Error 130 returned.
Is this just me being stupid due to lack of sleep?
Try following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/progress-fuu-m8-t2813792
You may need to s-off to get the superCID. I would highly recommend to do so.

Error 130 is wrong MID.
You're trying to flash the wrong RUU. Which one are you trying to install? You need an RUU that is 401.

My Meid is 0000000000 and I am trying to install the latest one they released on the HTC website.
Cid HTC__001 is WWE *.**401.* so you need a wwe 401 ruu. If you do not have s-off you cant flash any other ruu files !

Thank you! I guess I will just have to wait until Lollipop comes through an OTA update.
Hi,
I have bought a brand new HTC ONE M8 AT&T, i wanted to remove ATT branding, so unlocked bootloader, did the s-off using sunshine and installed the stock rom 4.4.4 3.28.401.9_odexed
Now i'm no more able to turn on Wifi, it's greyed out
Could you please help on this
PS : I'm not US based
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
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?

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 !
