[Q] Flash Bell stock rom on Rogers Raider and other questions - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

Hi,
I have the Rogers HTC Raider and I'd like to be able to put the Bell version on the phone. The phone is rooted and developer unlocked. Any known issues with this?
Does anyone know if there is a fix to increase the vibration tone on this phone? The vibrate isn't loud enough, even when it is in my pocket.
Thanks!

You wouldn't be able to increase the intensity of the vibration I don't think... But there are ways you can increase the duration of vibration.

Having a case on your pone diminishes the "loudness" of your vibration. The motor in the phone that causes the vibration usually has a fixed intensity, but you can potentially up the duration. I believe there's a property for that in the build.prop.

I believe the CID is checked by the stock RUU (and the RUU will refuse to install if it doesn't see it's preferred CID on the phone). Bell Raider and Rogers Raider each have separate CID's.
You can update your phone's CID to the SuperCID (11111111) which will accept any RUU (but that has it's dangers!) but I believe your phone must be S-OFF first! (is that what you meant by "developer unlocked?") The command is done via fastboot and I believe it is:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
I have done the SuperCID to both a Rogers Raider (friend's phone) and a Bell Raider (my phone), and I have flashed the Bell ICS RUU to the Rogers Raider and vice-versa. They each seem OK with the other's ICS RUU. But I wouldn't try any others....

need hboot to maintain s-off

Can anyone help me? I need hboot 1.93.0002 instead I have 1.93.2222. My s-off is not working.
I have:
juopunut bear
holiday pvt ship s-off rl
hbooy 1.93.2222
microp 0360
openadsp v02.6.0.2226.00.0202
emmc-boot
I am not sure i understand.. The hboot your using is a modified one they include. hence the higher version number then stock.
It has some extra commands unlocked which arent included with .0002
Why is it your looking for the stock hboot?
I am trying to unlock for simple mobile sim. I have s-off with supercid but still locked?
I have flashed back to 1.85.2525
Should I stay on the 1.92.2222 or 1.85?
1. This shouldn't be in the development thread
2. Wasn't your question answered in the Dark Raider rom thread?
3. Hboot has nothing to deal with having sim-unlock, you need to either buy a code or call your carrier to unlock it for you

isnt s-off to unlock for any carrier? I have done this before and it worked on an inspire.
S-Off means security off. It means that the NAND is "UNLOCKED", which means you can flash an engineered HBOOT. There is actually no solutions to sim unlock the Vivid without buying an unlock code.
Sent from my HTC Raider 4G LTE running ICS.
If there is a way for any dev to reverse engineer a sim unlock I can dump whatever files they need. I have a rogers raider with s-off and it is sim unlocked via a code I purchased at theunlockr.ca for about $25. Sorry if this isn't possible ..I'm not a dev. Just trying to help.

i know it was possible with the Sensation by playing around with the /dev/block/ part of the phone. maybe it is achiveable with the raider

You know you can just use a straight talk at&t sim card and you won't have to unlock your phone and you will also get 3G speeds instead of only Edge and it's only $45 a month.
Simple Mobile is an MVNO that runs on the T-Mobile network so the phone (SIM) needs to be unlocked. Try HTCIMEIUNLOCK.com. It will be about $25. If you want the ATT network try Red Pocket or H2O Mobile, same pricing.
I bought the unlock code from eBay and cost only $3.99. Check this link

[Q] [S-Off related) Can you change MID without modified HBOOT?

I have a T-Mobile HTC One (MID PN0713000) and I have been trying to test if my HSDPA on AWS band would work if I flashed a Dev Edition RUU. (I know there wouldn't be a way back without a T-Mobile RUU if I did lose the band, but that's fine.)
My problem is that the RUU is failing even though I have changed my CID to BS_US001 (Dev Edition CID) because my model ID doesn't match. Developer Edition (and AT&T) MID is PN0712000 versus my PN0713000, so it is not allowing the RUU to run. And even if it did, you can't get OTAs without a matching MID, so it would defeat the purpose of flashing a different RUU anyways.
So my question is, besides some modified HBOOT methods that I've seen, that I'm not in the mood to try due to a high risk of bricking the device, is there any way to change the Model ID of the device?
With Super CID you can flash any RUU but you will have the issue you said regarding the MID come OTA time...

That's why I wanna see if there is a way to change the MID. Only point of flashing a Dev or Euro RUU for me would be to have a stock device but still get OTAs faster. And same would apply to the Google RUU if/when it comes out, which will also probably be a different MID.

[Q]I need some help about RUU, CID, and OTAs.

Firstly, all I want to do is making my AT&T version One with SIM unlock become developer edition. Therefore I can get OTAs from HTC directly and fastest(I hate AT&T.)
So, I s-off my AT&T(thanks revone =b)
Then I changed cid from CWS__001 to 11111111, and installed RUU(1.29.1504.3), after first boot I reboot into bootloader and change CID from supercid to BS_US001, in order to pass the OTAs check. And I relock the bootloader also(fastboot oem lock.)(Thanks @nugzo) However, when I checked the updates, it pops up notification of update(1.29.1504.16), after I downloaded it, it shows "variant system version."
Then I want to run RUU again, but this time it shows error[131]: customer I'D Error.
Anything I can do?
By the way, the CID in fastboot is BS_US001 and ro.cid is BS_US001 too.
Grateful.

This one has got me, i dont know what is holding you up. We've been talking in PM's trying to get to the bottom of this but havent had any luck. He has the same ATT device as me, followed the exact procedure i did but keeps getting the error. Has anyone else had issue doing OTA's when all pre requisites are met? The ATT and Dev are the same MID so that's not it. Which s-off method did u use? revolutionary most likley.. it's the easiest. I used moonshine method. Anyone using the revolutionary method that has been successful doing what we're trying to do here? I know it probably doesnt matter which s-off method was used but i'm grasping at the moment.. cant figure this one out, it should be working. Did you change your ro.cid to BS_us001 via hex edit or was it like that? I never hex edited mine and it worked with the ATT cid. If you did change it, Maybe push your original mmcblkop19 back that had the original cid and retry.. The one that hasnt been edited. Again grasping here, but trying to duplicate my setup exactly.
Edit: i just noticed you said you cant even run the ruu now, are you talking about the same ruu you already ran successfully? 1.29.1504.3? Did you check the md5? How about changing back to supercid to install the ruu? I always initiate the ruu install when my phone is on fastboot screen.

What I would do is start completely over, Restore to a stock ATT RUU, then run moonshine, then change to CID with the fastboot command, then do the hexedit procedure for changing the CID within your ro.prop. Then flash a DEV RUU. it should return CID 11111111 if its all done correctly.

I did this to my AT&T One yesterday and was successful. There are 3 things that I did differently and it worked for me...
- I never bothered with the SuperCID, I changed my cid to BS_US001 and then flashed the ruu, no problems. That is the correct cid for the dev edition, so might as well keep it that way.
- I did not relock the bootloader, it's completely unnecessary as the dev edition ships unlocked out of the box. That's the way it's meant to be.
- I flashed the 1.28 ruu as I wanted to be sure that I'd be able to receive ota's. I was then successfully able to download and install the latest 1.29 ota.
So I essentially have a dev edition One now, maybe something that I did can help you (and others).

Thank you my friend, I really appreciate everything u taught me =))
I already checked the md5, it's correct. And it's the same RUU which is I flashed success before.
And I never try to hex edit.
Maybe I can run RUU with supercid, but basically I could run with BS_US001 too.
I will try what u said.
I hope we can figure it out.

AFAIK, the software, from HTC, is the same. I just don't want use at&t version cuz its update is really late, and I want to keep absolutely stock cuz it's the gift for my mom =b
By the way, the AT&T and Dev edition have same MID, that's why I choose Developer version =))
It I am wrong, correct me plz.

Good news and bad news.
Good news is I finally can update by OTAs.
Bad news is I still don't know why I can't do that before. All I did this morning is that I changed CID from BS_US001 to 11111111, reboot, then changed CID from 11111111 to BS_US001, reboot and everything works perfect.
By the way, I found one thing. If I changed to Supercid, the ro.cid will show CWS_001. However, if I changed to BS_US001, the ro.cid shows BS_US001. Even I have never touched hex edit.
Anyway, thanks @nugzo. U made my day =b

Hex edit is strictly cosmetic, You can do everything you need to do with fastboot oem writecid. Like OP said, his ro.prop cid changes with different fastboot CIDs. The ro.prop cid also changes with certain roms, aosp for example. IMO it's a little dangerous to hex edit for strictly cosmetic results..

Not exactly, my phone's prop.ro cid didnt match fastboot changed cid till i hex edited. the hex edit changes the value within the mm block, the HTC one cid is stored in two places hence why u still see the original CID when u do the fastboot command to read from ro.prop, there are some instances where users have experienced being unable to flash a particular ruu even after changing their cid via fastboot only..Hex editing the prop value allowed them to flash whatever ruu they were trying to provided its the right region for the phone...if you want to change the phones region then you would need to also change the mid.

The MID absolutely, but the getprop cid is cosmetic, it does not matter. It is not the tru cid location. I've been through all of these supercid threads as well as s-off 7 or 8 Ones and i cant find any evidence of this being needed. Please link me to one if you know any. My phone and 7 others that i updated never touched get prop cid in mmcblk019. only changed fastboot cid and was able to switch from ATT to Dev edition, Install RUU and get the OTA installed all while still having the ATT CID in mmcblk019. CID has always been modified the same way, fastboot oem writecid, There has always been different partitions that stored CID information, just cos they are stored there doesnt mean its the location that counts. Its just super dangerous and i personally haven't needed it for a total of 8 phones that i touched, and 2 more here at XDA the i helped with. Not 1 needed to hex edit to achieve the goal.

I haven't had issues flashing personally but I have seen reports by some being able to flash a ruu cause of cid mismatch even tho a phone has been fast boot written... might be a rare occurrence or it could just be user error.. Also I don't recommend that anyone just go hex editing without good reason... It is though one other step someone can take to ensure everything is what it should be.

The only issues i've seen are with people having the wrong MID. They can do the RUU but cant get OTA;s/

Is it possible to make a AT&T HTC One a Developer Edition?

Okay,
I have a AT&T that I have bootloader unlocked and S-off and have been running pretty much any ROM from this forum.
I'd like to know if it's possible to change it to "Developer Edition" so I can receive the latest updates directly from HTC.
I'm assuming that I'd need to change my Model ID and CID number and flash the correct RUU?
Thanks
You can always side load the update, international is pretty much the same but it comes unlocked bootloader, which is something easy to do with the HTC Dev

Stock recovery, HBoot 1.44, relock bootloader, leave S-Off, run Brightstar RUU from HTCDev site. Once done you will have 4.3 and can get the new 4.4 updates. ATT MID is the same, I played with different CID's, and either SuperCid works and BS_US001 works. Simple as that.

[Q] taking my m7tmo to at&t... convert to new CID/MID/ROM? any other tips?

As title says, I'm taking my T-Mobile HTC One M7 to AT&T. From what I can tell, it should just work with the new SIM (it's SIM-unlocked from T-Mobile as I paid the device off fully). Should also note that my devices is bootloader-unlocked, S-Off, and rooted as well.
After doing some reading, it looks like I might want to change the CID, MID, or ROM. I'm no stranger to new ROMs, but the CID and MID thing are new to me.
It seems like the logical options are to (1) stay on T-Mobile CID, MID, and ROM; (2) change to AT&T CID, MID, and ROM; (3) change to un-branded/unlocked CID, MID, and ROM.
Of these three options, option #3 is the most interesting to me, as I would get the OTA updates way ahead of T-Mobile or AT&T. I'm actually pretty set on this idea, but one thought occurred to me: radio update problems. I know the T-Moble HTC One M7 supports different radio bands, I think because it has different radio hardware. If I switch to the unlocked CID, MID, and ROM and I get an OTA that includes a radio update, isn't there potential for a bad radio flash?
Also, in general, are there any other downsides to converting a T-Mobile M7 to an unlocked M7?
Any other advice when switching?

As far as the radio goes, you can pull the latest radio from the firmware in a carrier's OTA. If you want to get the OTA updates you will need the stock recovery, stock rom and depending on OTA some of the preload apps. It would be easier to use the RUU exe or zip or nandroid to accomplish it. Follow the OP instructions to a T, since you are S-OFF you can do major damage if you do not. Do not go back to S-ON!
