[Q] OTA by changing CID - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Im from South Africa.
I have an unlocked HTC one 32 gig.The phone is tampered,unlocked,rooted and also s-off with rumrunner.
Its on 4.2.2 with a software number of 2.24.401.8.
What i want to achieve is getting my phone to recieve the OTA update of 4.4 sense for the international version.Because the updates take very long to come to South Africa.
I know i have to do the CID thing.....but i cant find a very good tutorial.
So could you guys please help me and tell me what i should do next to achieve my goal
Thanks in advanced.

Fastboot oem writecid "xxxxxxxx"
Fastboot reboot
Now I dont think there is a 4.4 ota for .401 sw. So you need to wait or convert to dev edition. In theory cid HTC__001 and HTC__Y13 receives ota prettey fast for .401 sw

How do I revert back to sense?

I recently switched my phone over to the GPE by s-off and flashing the GPE ruu to my phone, chaning the phone id etc. How would you go about changing the phone back to Sense? I tried changing the CID back to the originial and installing the AT&T Ruu .exe from my computer but It stopped and gave me an error. Not sure exactly what the error said since it was last night, but It said to download the correct RUU file for my phone. I know that it is the correct RUU file for when it was still on Sense before conversion because I used it to restore it once before. Any help would be awesome.

Dont believe so, I changed it through fastoobt oem cid by using fastboot oem writecid. You have toe bare with me, Im new to android.
If you're not returning the phone for service than changing your cid 11111111 will allow you to install any ruu regardless of your region. Otherwise you must find the proper ruu for your region and flash the cid to the correct value for your region. The reason this is done is because different radios are flashed for different regions among other things.

Also I'm not sure why you're running ruu's get your phone rooted bootloader unlocked than flash a new Rom with sense, unless your going for stock for warranty purposes.

Awesome man, I appreciate the help. I will post later tonight after I get off work to let you know how it went.

Choosing RUU file

When choosing the RUU for your specific device whats more important..
The software number or the baseband number..
for example my software is 1.29.666.17 and baseband is 4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01L (bell canada)
Can I use this RUU file
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.29.707.3_R_Radio_4A .14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_311678_signed.ex e
As you can see the last numbers are an exact match..
based on this what am i looking for my device
The software is more important. The baseband is just the radio. If you choose a different RUU, you would need to make your CID 11111111, other wise the RUU will fail.
Are you s-off or unlocked, etc?

Im s-on unlocked with cwm custom recovery, hboot 1.44

If you could, boot into bootloader, this will list your CID. Either hold power and vol down or 'adb reboot-bootloader' while the phone is on.

Before running RUU you need to lock bootloader tho..
From fastboot you need to first re-lock your bootloader
fastboot oem lock
Once locked it will boot back into bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU

In a last ditch effort to get my camera working again, I will be flashing the venom 4.2.2 rom, if that does not work, then i Will be pushing a google play RUU to my phone and that should be a fix!.. i just booted into recovery and everything seem fine there..
do you think im taking the right steps here.. i hope i am
If it were me, I would go with a Rom that is close to stock as possible, so maybe Clean Rom 5.2 or ARHD 13.3

i`m currently downloading Venom rom on a limited data plan lol, sooo my fingers are crossed(really)..the venom rom shows a stock kernal, the kernal is the only thing modified on my htc a.t.m, so im really praying that this rom with its stock kernal, fixes the camera..if not I will def try the ones you suggested, although if this doesnt provide a fix, it probably means the other ones won`t either..so I will ultimately have to try a RUU.:good:
Great news The rom was successful in recovering my camera
thank you soo much for all your help, it motivated me to get this back running ))

Yes it does follow last step only because you dont need to convert your phone to google edition only flash the RUU
You sure? Do I have to relock bootlaoder? Thanx for the help

You can't flash that ruu. Its an unsigned zip for s-off phones. Flash a stock GE rom, flash the stock recovery (you can pull the recovery from that ruu.zip), and lock the boot loader.

I would take a look at this link for information relevant for 4.3. It may be possible to downgrade the hboot to 1.44 and S-OFF then install the GPe ruu.
http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...one-into-htc-one-with-sense-no-bloat-0148220/
I have not tried this so I do not know for sure, but it may be worth reading the information in the link.
I can't confirm this, as I don't have a GE but I'd say that link is bull. You need s-off to downgrade hboots, and you can't get s-off with hboot 1.54, which the GE shipped with. Since no one in their comment section has got it working I'd say its a no go. Feel free to try though.

Also, as I said before, the GE ruu is an unsigned zip made by devs to convert an s-off phone to complete GE. It will accomplish exactly the same thing as flashing a stock GE rom and recovery, since the OP's phone is a real GE and already has the Google firmware. But either way would work, provided you can get s-off. Obviously the solution that doesn't require s-off has a much lower chance of messing things up though...

New to Htc One!

Hi guys!
Im a noob in this section of the forum .
I just bough a Htc One from someone and it was the version from Taiwan.
Its the version Htc One 801e.
I live in Greece ,Europe so I tried to make my Htc an Euoropen one.
What I did the first thing was be unlocked ,S-Off and to change CID so now I have SuperCid.
Than I tried to change and the Model ID.
I took the tutorial from here and the file from step 2 just [email protected]#*t my new phone.I could boot in fastboot only but the screen was washed with many colors.I installed a wrong hboot.
I dont know why I needet this file because the zip file was for Htc Dna.
What I did to revive my phone was to download the firmware zip file from here and install it like the other one. :laugh:
Now do I need the change Model ID so I can use the RUU for European Version or I'm ok with SuperCid an S-Off?
If yes any good tutorial because the last one wasnt a good one!
You have no reason to try to change model id. S-off and eng hboots are serious stuff, you could easily brick your phone. Set super cid. Flash ruu. Good to go.

MID and CID need to be correct, then you can flash the correct RUU or backup of a suitable ROM, and then OTAs should appear. Of course, you'll need stock recovery to install them.

I have now supercid 11111111 and mid PN0711000
So to make my HTC One like a Europian Version I should change the Cid to HTC__001 and Mid to PN0710000 ???

I'm not 100% on this, but I believe mid does not matter. With the Google edition, people who did not change mid still received ota's. Plus changing the mid is a lot riskier than changing the cid.

As I said before, you should because GPe phones get their update with any mid, but there's no way to be certain until an ota comes out.

[Q] I'm getting mad while trying to restore to stock my phone!

Hi all, I'm a new user of this forum and I signed up because I'm really getting mad with my phone
Some time ago, I liked to flash custom rooms like MIUI, CyanogenMod, etc... but now I would to restore back my phone to stock rom.
I read a lot of tutorial on internet but nothing is working for me. I get various error with revone and moonshine.
I think I need to restart from the beginning. My mobile is mounting HBOOT 1.54 and it has S-ON.
What should I do to restore to stock rom my mobile? I want also to restore the recovery and other modification I have done during rooting.
Tell me if you need more information.
Thanks in advance .

You can't downgrade without S-Off, and you can't get S-Off with hboot 1.54

You have to relock your bootloader if you are s-on. I would just wait for a day or so, 1.54 s-off has been achieved and just waiting on the man to release it. look in the general thread, and throw him a $20.

Check out the Bounty thread, a couple of beta testers have achieved s-off on hboot 1.54. Software should be released soon to allow the rest of us to get s-off
