Looking to flash my phone to stock using an run
1. I know my phone has to match mid & Cid but does it have to match you firmware number
HTC_001
1.95.401.4
Latest ruu available is 1.80.401.1
Can I flash that?
RUU has to be 1.95.401.4 or higher unless you are s-off, then you can use any RUU

When updating RUU I find that my current image is 2.17.415.2 to 1.29.415.11 How can I downgrade the image to be able to flash the RUU please help
I have CID HTC__J15
How do I know which ROM is associated with this CID?
You can't downgrade.
You can use google.
Ive researched several of the guides / instructions on converting to GPE rom from Sense and read some instructions on going back to sense from GPE.
What is inconsistent to me from the research is changing the MID. Does flashing firmware or flashing a RUU change the MID for you?
When would you need to change the MID? The instructions I have found to get to GPE from Sense is to flash firmware and the ruu, or just flashing the ruu.
If i went to GPE, I would want full otas and everything. But I would also want the comfort of being able to go back to stock sense if I preferred...for whatever reason.
If I never changed my MID to get to GPE, would I have to alter it to get back to sense?
thanks...any clarification would be helpful in this toping as far as going back and forth.

No. You need to change your MID in order to RUU or flash firmware. If you have the wrong MID (for instance, don't have the GPE MID but try to flash GPE RUU) then you will fail MID check, and the RUU or firmware will not install.
The exception would be if you are using a modified RUU or firmware (you haven't been specific), where an XDA dev has added support for more MIDs. In which case, you should check the thread for the desired RUU to see what MIDs are supported (and similar for modified firmware). But if you are talking about official stock firmware or RUUs, you will need the exact MID that is intended.
And in any case, a firmware or RUU will never change your MID.

If it's a modified ruu and is compatible with my mid, and I flash to gpe and have the correct cid, then can I receive ota updates? Or will I have to have correct factory mid and cid to receive the ota.

I assume you are talking about graffixnyc's GPE RUUs. In which case, yes you will get OTAs. As long as you have a stock ROM (can be rooted, as long as no system files modified using root permissions) stock recovery, and GPE CID and MID, you should get GPE OTA.
What MID or CID your phone came with has no bearing on the OTA you will get, once you've changed the items above. Its essentially "converted" to a GPE phone.
hi, i have a problem to find a recovery stock for 1.12.600.20, i need for install stock rom, mi telephone is carrier TELCEL (MEXICO), i have s-off, super cid, unlock bootloader, and i want install a europe RUU lollipop, someone could me if is necessary install to recovery stock, or some other method???
Thanks
You don't need stock recovery to run an RUU.
But you do need to change the device's CID and MID to match the RUU.

As I already stated, if you want to run the Euro RUU, you need to change your MID and your CID to the Euro CID, MID.
If either (or both) CID or MID do not match what the RUU is looking/intended for, the RUU will fail.
hello,
My Phone is HTC M8x
MID 0P6B11000
CID HTC__621
My bootloader is unlocked and I am S-On (can't do S-Off cos I don't have MasterCard)
I am currently running the 6.12.1540.4 version software of HTC Marshmallow
How can I return to Stock Lollipop?
I need that to get OTA to Marshmallow and get the latest firmware
Thanks
Read my stock backup thread linked in my signature
hi, thanks for reading this
phone details:
version-main: 2.10.166.2
mid: 0PJA10000
cid: VODAP120
bootloader relocked
S-ON
i would like to update to firmware 3.35 for MM support,
i got a backup of the phone but no stock recovery hence no OTA updates (since i had to flash twrp to be able to backup in the first place ...).
couldnt find a RUU or stock recovery image that would work with my CID i a tried quiet a few EUROPE and VODAFONE zips
is there any other way than: purchasing sunshine to S-OFF -> change the CID-> flash firmware/custom RUU? if that is the only way to go which RUU should i use after CID change?
please advice, thank you
