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?
Hi
Bricked my old 16gb HTC One M8 - sending to HTC for repair tomorrow.
Ordered a replacement 32gb HTC One M8 from Hong Kong. It was billed as 'new' but on arrival it appears to be S-OFF but locked. Full bootloader details below:

Whenever I try to update OTA, it tells me my phone is not stock and the update doesn't install. I just want to get the phone back to stock with the latest OTA firmware, nothing more. What would my best course of action be here?
I'm no expert but I did purchase a used M8 last week with similar status, which was able to return to (almost) stock.
First, I think your super cid (11111111) is stopping you from any OTA update. Change that to reflect your carrier.
If you are still not able to check for OTA update after that, you need to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP or CWM boot loader, and flash a backup of stock Rom from your carrier.

M8_UL_CA. You are on AT&T, correct?
You can download the latest AT&T RUU here.
Download it onto your PC. Hook up your phone and open command prompt. Direct it to your ADB folder, then enter these commands.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot rebootRUU waiting for it to boot after each command.
Then run the RUU download by double clicking on the download, and follow the prompts given.
You will have to run it twice. The first time will not install the whole package, the second time finishes the process. This is normal.

I'm not with AT&T. I bought the phone carrier unlocked - I use a Three mobile SIM. If the phone has been made S-OFF and carrier unlocked then I'd like to return it to a stock unlocked model if possible...

Hi - I don't have a carrier - I bought the phone on its own, supposedly carrier unlocked, using an existing Three mobile SIM that I have.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a suitable SuperCID I could try?
Super cid (11111111) means you can flash any rom manually, but no OTA update.
If you want OTA updates, you either pick a carrier and use its cid, or use the GPE (Google play edition) cid. GPE means no HTC added stuffs, like sense 6.
Either way, Google for the cid numbers.

My last phone was a stock HTC which I converted to GPE. I got fed up with the phone and tried to revert to stock, but messed up. While HTC fix that one I'm trying to update this replacement... getting a bit fed up with non stock HTC phones now to say the least!
Will changing my CID to something like HTC__001 and rebooting risk bricking the phone?
My HTC M8 also has S-off, and I have no problem changing the cid to whatever I want with the toolkit on xda.
Running OTA updates, on the other hand, is more risky to me since I didn't know the history of my device. I chose to flash a nandroid backup via TWRP. (No RUU published from my carrier). Then I re-rooted the stock rom, retuned back to stock recovery, removed the "modified/tampered" status, and locked the boot loader. I left the S-off status, which is the only non-stock.

The guy that sold me the phone suggested I flash this RUU to the phone. It appears to be a Brighstar US RUU... which just confuses me even more.
"i have find a way to fix your problem, its very simple, but requires your attention to the following details
follow what this link tells you
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/"
What did you ask from the seller? Was it just something "stock and unlocked"? The US rom quote was definitely stock. (Sim) unlocked or not is independent of the rom. Your phone could be locked/unlocked regardless of the rom you use.
All unmodified version from HTC are stock, including GPE. You need to first decide which carrier you want your phone to be "stock" for.

I've just spoken to someone in HTC USA Customer services - the phone is formerly an AT&T contract phone. She told me that I'm better off returning the phone to the seller if I want regular OTA updates.
So either send it back and be without phone for a week or so, or try and return it to factory stock myself. Tricky one.

OK so in theory, I could change the CID to Three UK, and find a Three UK RUU and convert the phone into a stock unlocked three UK one that works with my sim...?

It looks like my best/safest option is installing the Developer edition RUU - but I am on a mac. Does anyone have the correct Zip file of this?

I don't think the ROM update exe will run in Mac. You'll need to find a Windows pc for this, or try virtual machine running Windows on your mac.

all the files you need to convert to DE are here >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=21320
This guide may be easier to convert to the DE as it used RUU. No custom recovery and s-off required.

If you ordered it from Mainland region then most sellers do S Off there even if the phone is new but if you wanted S On you could have talked to the seller. It's trend over there before getting a new android phone almost 90% sellers sells S OFF and Rooted new devices in almost all major Smartphone brands.
Edit: Yes, M8_UL_CA is definitely (AT&T) What country do you belong to? If you're based in the US then just run official HTC AT&T RUU and you will be able to get OTA updates in the near future.

Actually, it is AT&T, T-Mob, plus Telus and Rogers (Canada, I'm on Telus).
I see he is unbranded(?) now. The first answer was assuming.
@billyboy77 Your radio version is WWE. Sorry I didn't notice that before.
Download the International WWE RUU here.
You will be able to flash this to get to stock since you are S Off and superCID. It will bring you up to the latest firmware. No need for OTAs. Back up anything that is important to you before running the RUU, because it will wipe your device.
hm... Seems like you guys are really trying your hardest to make this more difficult than it needs to be. Having S-OFF he can practically make his device any device he wants it to be, T-Mobile, AT&T, Unlocked, Developer Edition, surely any GSM based carrier/unlocked version.
What's the problem? Unlock Bootloader, Get a custom recovery, Get Root, Change your MID to the one you want, Change your CID to the one you want, Restore a backup for the one you chose, run OTA's...
"OMG I'm S-OFF and bought unlocked but I can't get OTA's because my phone WAS an AT&T and I'm not on AT&T I'm on Three"

After what happened with my last phone, I'd rather not muck about with unlocking, rooting or any of that balls. Just a stock OS with regular updates will do me just fine (until the new HTC comes out anyway)
Hello dear friends,
I bought a HTC One M8 from China. The phone is originally made for USA T-Mobile but it comes with a changed RUU with Android 5.0.1 which can not be updated. The MID is 0P6B13000 and CID is changed to supercid already (111111111). I would like to install on it a European RUU (latest version) originaly made for MID 0P6B10000. I don't know if there is any actual difference between 0P6B10000 and 0P6B13000 or if their RUUs can be exchanged with one another. Can I already download a European RUU and directly install it? Should I not do it? Should I change MID and CID as those of an European version? Or should I restore the factory CID and leave the MID as it already is? I have also read that before installing a last version RUU I have to update the firmware, is that correct? If anyone with good experience can give me good advice and if possible usefull links of tutorials and downloads I would much appreciate it.
Thank you in all advance!

To flash an RUU, you need to pass CID check and MID check. SuperCID means you will pass any CID check. But you still need to pass the MID check. That means, if you want to flash the Euro RUU, you need to change the MID to 0P6B10000.
Guide on changing the MID is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708581

That is a slightly complicated question. Euro version is probably desirable for most folks, since it removed the T-Mobile branding (exception might be if you are actually using T-Mob US as your carrier, and want WiFi calling).
The other issue would be, what bands does your carrier use, and which version supports those bands (as flashing the RUU will change band support). Again, for many folks Euro RUU is probably better. But it depends on you carrier (what bands they use for 3G and LTE).

If you want to flash an RUU to update from LP to MM, then yes that is true that you need to flash the MM firmware before the MM RUU. Otherwise, the RUU will fail with Error 155.
Don't you have to s-on before using the RUU also?
You also don't need to change your mid, just change it in the android-info.txt unless you plan to use international roms to get the full benefits (some Roms setup based on mid)
Hi all,
My name is Nicola and I'm from Bari, southern Italy.
Well... I'm here because it's a while that I search for a fix for my M9, i can't update it. Everytime it says "variant system version".
I also called HTC custom care that told me that my HTC is american and that is the problem, I should send the phone to HTC USA and that issue is not covered by warranty.
I want to ask if you can help me, please! :crying::crying::crying:
when I go to download mode, it says:

good evening

Did you buy the phone second hand? Or was it you who set it S-OFF and changed the CID to the SuperCID?
Please use the conversion guide in the ReadMe thread for restoring a CID that is compatible with your current firmware. The matching CIDs are all mentioned near the downloads of the RUU section in said thread. It doesn't matter which of the 10 CIDs you choose. However, the meaning of each CID is explained in the CID list that is linked in the further reading section of the ReadMe thread. The reason for your phone not being able to receive/install OTAs is explained in the OTA section of the mentioned thread.
Hi Flippy,
thanks for reply.
I buy the phone new, from ebay, it was brand new. Honestly, I did nothing to the phone!
I will try changing the CID,
Thanks a lot, Flippy!
Cheers
Nico

I can tell you for sure that it's not brand new. S-OFF and the SuperCID are both clear indications that someone tinkered with this phone.
In addition, the phone is currently running a European firmware. So, if HTC can prove that it's a US model than it got converted by the previous owner.
So... I got cheated.
Well from now i think i'll buy phones only from trusted sellers, i got a lot of problems with the phone, The battery does not last long, sometimes goes in loop with Google service and I reset the phone for use it again, I had an M7 and that was better for me.
