Hi! Just got my M9 from T-Mobile, already S-OFF'ed, rooted, installed latest TWRP and unlocked bootloader, also set CID to BS_US001 and MID to 0PJA11000
Am I ready to run RUU or should I do something else?
Thanks!

Hi,
The RUU HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 is best for UK. Install this RUU from the boot loader and change the CID of your phone to HTC_001 if it's on a different carrier. The OTA update works on this RUU and will update it to 1.29XXXXX.

Are you sure? I briefly tried to restore to stock using this, and others, all I got was an error when it tried to flash ... Wouldn't let me install because the version is older than the current UK Sim Free version I'm on ... I might be wrong as I know jack **** about S-Off and changing CID's etc but I know that on my UK Sim Free One, I couldn't restore from any of the RUU's available currently as there wasn't one that matched my version.
I'm on 1.29.401.13 btw ... Oh, still no update btw to 4.2.2 lol

Is your device on s-off and is the bootloader unlocked. Your device has to have s-off before you can successfully flash any version of any stock ruu . You will need to change the Cid as well to 11111111 before you can flash any version.
Mine was branded from 3 uk. After setting the device to s-off using instructions from the XDA forum, the bootloader was also unlocked. I didnt need to go through HTC to unlock the bootloader.
I downloaded the european wwe version and the asia wwe versions of the RUU , changed the CID from H3G_001 to 11111111 for all versions and was able to flash these roms to the phone . It even lets you flash a lower version. I then changed the CID FROM 11111111 to HTC_001 for europe and was able to download OTA updates. I even flashed the Asia version and this worked as well with the asia wwe cid.you can only flash these suceessfully if the device is s-off, bootloader unlocked and cid changed to the universal id which is 11111111. Instructiions can be found on this forum.

You don't need to s-off to downgrade you can use the toolbox software to run mainver error check (needs root) to trick the phone into thinking its on 1.00 of hoot then you can downgrade with the RUU.

Hi guys, I have T-Mobile version. So, I have unlocked, S-OFF, changed to CID to 111111 and installed custom recovery. So now, am I able to have official firmware and software updates from T-Mobile or should I install Developer RUU from HTC. If I want to install Developer Edition RUU, which one should I choose? I have checked HTC website and I am lost .
Thank you!
Hello there
A few ago I used revone's guide in order to go S-OFF and it worked. I have a few questions regarding RUUs and OTAs:
1) If there's an RUU that is NOT for my device (say my device is international and the RUU is for Asia or Europe, for instance) and my device is S-OFF, can I still install it and would it work properly?
2) My CID is HTC__J15 and we always receive OTA updates LAST (at least that's how it was on my HTC One X), if I change the CID to HTC__001, for instance, which is Europe, will I be able to receive the updates just as they do over there? And if I do change the CID, which RUU should I install in order to be stock? And would I have to change to S-OFF and be unrooted?
3) If my device is S-OFF, CID HTC__001 and I am running TrickDroid 7.5.0 and I hear of an OTA update available for HTC__001, for instance 4.2.2 JellyBean, would I have to install stock ROM and stock recovery, which is basically what an RUU does?
4) What is the benefit of SuperCID? If you can install any RUU with being S-OFF only.
Thank you very much.
Originally a Tmobile HTC One
Currently:
S-Off
HBoot 1.54
unlocked bootloader
Stock GPE 4.4.2
I have AT&T and want sense 6, but I don't want the AT&T or Tmobile garbage that comes with it. Am I ok to change MID & CID to unlocked or dev and flash a vanilla RUU?
I tried searching for the answer, but wound up more confused. Just wanted to confirm this was ok. Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can if you want to:
MID change tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535365
CID change using: fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 <- or whatever CID you choose, but exactly 8 characters
do NOT go S-On
or just use a custom ROM
but do NOT go S-On

+1 .. @nkk71 is ABSOLUTELY right about staying S-Off.
Hello all,
Currently on Lollipop 5.0.1 stock, flash via the OTA update as I had previously converted to GPE.
I am s-off and have super cid.
I wish to go back to Sense 4.4.3 which I believe was the last release? As I am super cid I can flash an ruu from any region, whichever rom offers me Sense 6/KK 4.4.3?
If so, can anyone point me to a reliable ruu that is know to work as I have tried one or two executable ruus which have caused errors during the process, where as running a JB exe works fine. Problem then is I have to manually update the JB rom to KK which takes forver.
THanks.
