Question about RUU's - Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to make an RUU compatible to a certain CID? For an example, I have an RUU that is compatible on only to CID htc__038, can I make it compatible to htc__622?
I need it cause my phone is on s-on and there is only one person in my country who s-offs htc phones...

[Q] Can i flash JB rom with Sense with CID: 11111111?

Hi,
I would like to flash the newest InsertCoin rom to my One X, but i can't figure out if it will work.
In this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920060 it says that i need a certain CID - and my CID is 111111, so it doesn't match (and i tried to change it, but can't).
So - does anyone know if it will work?
And if it doesn't work, will it brick my phone og will i loose any information? (i made a backup in recovery)

your CID doesn't support the latest JB Firmware...so DO NOT FLASH THAT!
Hmm... That's not what i was hoping for...
So i will have to find a way to change my CID...?
Do you know how i got that CID? As far as i can read, everybody else has more "random" CID's... I'm an HTC ambassador (i work at a phone company in Denmark) so maybe i got a pre-production model?

you can't change your CID cause you are not S-OFF.... you will have to wait.... every phone has a different cid
Dammit...
Thanks for the help anyway
I actually considered flashing it just to try, but i think you just saved my phone...
And i suppose no one knows when we will get S-OFF...?
You know... i might be missing something here, but isn't CID - 11111111 SuperCID??
Surely that would mean the device is already S-Off??
In recovery it says from the top:
UNLOCKED
ENDEAVORU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.12.0000
and so on...
I'm guessing that means it is ON?
Yeah that means it's S-ON, but if you had CID 11111111 then thats SuperCID and the CID restrictions wouldn't apply to you.
I don't quite understand how you can have a SuperCID device thats S-On, but if it's a special one from HTC, then who knows?
Mines the same. Weird combo from what I've been reading on here... hopefully there'll no more restrictions or anything... no waiting until every other CID has it first!

So in other words i can "safely" flash the JB rom?
If it doesn't work anyway, can i get back to ICS without a wipe?
I think i'm just about to get VERY happy
If you do have CID: 11111111 then yes, i'd say you can safely flash the new HBOOT, BUT because you're not S-Off, you can't go back to HBOOT 1.12.
You need to make a nandroid backup of you ICS Rom so if you don't like Jellybean, then you can go back to ICS through restoring. Beware though, things like CM10 etc don't work on the new HBOOT at the moment.
did you try fastboot oem writecid HTC_001 while in bootloader ? if device stops responding until reboot it means it wont work
Yes you can..my HOX has S-OFF and SuperCid and i was able to flash the new hboot.

Not all SuperCID devices are S-Off. S-Off also allows you to flash an older hboot, which cannot be done with SuperCID alone.
Yes this looks like superCID but I don't know if it will support the JB firmware... Better not to try

The worst that could happen is that the new hboot is rejected. That's seems like an entirely recoverable scenario.
Then what does SUPER CID mean if you cannot flash the new Hboot, so it isn't that SUPER!

It means you can run any RUU
It will support the new HBOOT i'd imagine, If you've got SuperCID it's like being region free.
I can't see why it wouldn't work, it's worked for other people, thats one of the advantages of being S-Off, so you can SuperCID and flash any HBOOT (+Downgrade if you're S-Off)

RUU OPTUS_001 x.xx.980.x AUSTRALIA

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?

What's the mid and cid for the unlocked m8?

Looking to convert my T-mobile HTC m8 to the unlocked version of the m8 sold on HTC's site. Just need to make sure I have the correct cid/mid before flashing the firmware.zip.
Currently I read it was HTC__001 and the mid was 0P6B12000
Is this correct? I don't want to brick my phone so I want to make sure.
The MID you listed I believe is the same for the AT&T, unlocked and developer edition. CID all you have to do is super CID to 11111111( that's right 1's). I don't know if you need the correct CID for OTA updates. Super cid should be enough though I believe.

Correct, with super CID, and S-OFF, one should be able to install any RUU/OTA without errors.

Buying an unlocked AT&T M8 and flashing a T-Mobile RUU?

Would that work or would I brick the phone?

			
				
It would only work if you're s-off and you change the cid and mid I believe. It wouldn't brick it. Are you s-off?

I'm not but I was thinking about buying an AT&T M8, I've never heard of MID though. But yeah I know you have to s-off
Yeah it would be similar to the gpe conversion I believe. At least I think it'd be about the same.

Help with rom for CID

Hi guys, I've been searching for days to find a rom for the CID I want. I own a M9u (S-OFF) with CID T-MOB101 and MID 0PAJ1000.
I changed the CID to HTC_E11 but I can't find a ruu that matches that CID. Can I just change it to CID1111111 and then flash a .401 rom? (I now have .111) And then get ota's? Or doesn't CID1111111 get ota's?
Thanks!

The answer to that question is explained in the ReadMe thread.
In addition, you need to be aware that CIDs which exist on older HTC devices (e.g. HTC__E11) don't necessarily need to exist on other devices (like the M9 in this case), as well. The HTC 10 for example doesn't have the German CID HTC__102, anymore. As a replacement HTC introduced a new CID (HTC__034) which is used for several European countries.

I'm sorry, I did read the ReadMe, guess I missed that part.
