originally i've had k-jam ROM on my wizard but then i've flashed it using aWizard with Qtek ROM and then using RUU with RadioROM. before flashing process i did CID unlock of course. but now i'd like to flash it again with this RUU:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe
but i've a bit doubt about CID unlock, so my questions are:
1) do i have to do it again before using RUU?
2) does this RUU lock CID again so after flashing wizard with RUU will i need to unlock it later?
i already know that using aWizard it's needed to enable RAPI every time but CID unlock matter is not that clear.
just once.. hope that helps

Hi all,
I have a Vodafone branded HTC One from Germany, all stock, and i have just gained s-off and change cid to super cid. My questions is; which stock RUU should i use for debranding (im from Denmark)? Is it okay to install the older firmware 1.28.401.7 when i now have 2.24.161.1, and are there some consequences of doing that? Im thinking about to get acces to the bootloader and change my cid back afterwards.
And final question, should i lock the bootloader before flashing?
Thanks.
Regards.
Hi,
So I bought this phone from eBay where the seller stated that it was simfree and unlocked, it's not (I can't use it with my network in it's current state). I'm thinking of returning it but I've always had in mind to unlock the bootloader for custom ROMs anyway, so why not try to achieve S-OFF and see if I can keep it anyways?
My question is... With S-OFF, Can I "convert" the phone to a WWE one? I mean, I could change the CID to HTC__001 (or even Super CID) and unlock the SIM. Would this be enough to "convert" the phone? For all intents and purposes, would HTC recognize this device as a WWE or still as an Orange device? Also, say I need to return my device for repair and I want to revert everything to stock, could I just keep the HTC__001 CID and a stock ROM/recovery matching that CID or would I need to restore the Orange stock ROM (which honestly seems exactly the same as the WWE ROMs but with a different number, x.x.61.x in my case, instead of x.x.401.x)?
EDIT: Just unlocked the sim with a code provided by the seller. But my main questions persist, could someone kindly help me clarify my doubts?

You can change to whatever CID you have but you MUST have same software version as your CID to receive OTA...
That means:
fastboot getvar cid = adb shell getprop ro.cid

you don't need to relock bootloader as you S-OFF to receive/apply OTA but completely stock is a MUST including stock recovery

ok so the fact that HTC__621 isnt my ORIGINAL cid and that i changed to it from HTC__332 wont cause any trouble with the OTA and firmware, right?

bear in mind you need to downgradeto unlock bootloader again via revone, locked/unlocked bootloader check are skipped as you s-off, I'm receiving and applying OTA with unlocked bootloader without any problems

so you mean that if i have s off, i can receive OTA without locking bootloader?
EDIT: i am now on OS 2.24.709.1 with hboot 1.54, unlocked and s off , running stock taiwanese 4.2.2 ROM, i receive OTA update to 4.3 and it downloads fine too, but when i choose to install it , the phone boots up into recovery, the progress bar goes halfway and then i get a red exclamation mark icon and i have to restart my phone, can you tell me what i'm doing wrong?when i press power button and volume up and down simultaneously to get the menu in recovery, i see error "cannot mount sd card, fail 1 times" upto 4 times and also there is a Tamper flag on the recovery menu , my bootloader is unlocked but Tampered and i'm on hboot 1.54

did you run RUU? how come you have Tampered? Did you flash custom 2.24.709.1 firmware or original signed one? Can you attach updater-script from OTA (META-INF\com\google\android)
