How to check the CID number of my DS ?
i use goldcard helper from the market.
You mean for the memory card or the phone's branding cid?
As above for the memory card.
Use 'fastboot getvar cid' for the branding cid.

I am in a bad situation with my rooted, now semi-bricked G1 =[
I had cyanogenmod and RA recov. I installed a new theme directly from the CM updater app; then on reboot, my phone would not boot into the OS (stuck on logo, before loading screen). So I tried to overwrite the phone with cyan again. It wouldn't work so then I was left to flash the phone and start over. Upon flashing, I got that b#$6h of an error. Then the "RUUNBH".
Now upon turning on my phone (In any way) it comes to the colured screen. When I try to flash a nbh, I get the "not allow" because my SD card needs to be a gold card.
The only method now is to gold card my SD. Which I cannot figure out anymore because all the methods I would need a WinMo phone or an working Android phone, neither I have access to.
In short, does anyone know how I can get a SD card's CID without a phone. I DO have a laptop with a sd card reader and CAN get access to a external USB sd card reader.
Any help?

Buy a cheap winmo phone? Something that has whats required. There has to be an old one that can do it for like 20 - 30 dollars. I don't think it's possible otherwise.
I think it may be possible to get the CID with a sdcard slot (not USB), usually within a laptop. Recently, I found this: jo0ls-dotnet-stuff.blogspot.com/search/label/SD%20Card%20CID
I used his source and threw in a couple lines to debug why it wasn't working, but it seems the laptop I own doesn't have a support SD card slot, so I will have to go see someone who has a internal SD slot on their laptop.
A winmo phone for $30?... By any chance of pointing me in the direction of such item(s)? (I am Australian)

Though this thread is for the Topaz, IMO pt 5.1 and especially pt 5.2 are interesting for you;

Thanks for your suggestion. But it is possible that you would still need to get her a CID. I am wondering if it is possible to overwrite the whole SD card through the tool that is used to edit your SD card and into a 'goldcard'.
I PMed the person who was recommended in that thread, fingers crossed.
SD card reader that can read SD/MMC 32 bit CID
Hi There
I think this might be useful to anyone that sits with the problem of reading the 32 bit serial number/CID of a SD/MMC card.
I have managed to get firmware written for the Addonics eSata/USB multi-card reader model AEPDDESU with a small application that will read and display the CID number.
There is no other way to read the CID number through USB on PC other than having the the chip set inside the reader relay the information back to the host when it receives an application defined command,like for instance DeviceIoControl.
If anyone is interested drop me a mail and i will gladly mail u the firmware + utillity .One will need to buy this drive though.

Dear friend.
I am looking for solution to read Serial No from SD card. I made special software which is runing on every pc on out company an check all inserted USB memory keys. Then compare serial no with database and if not registered is used we get warnings on IT section that not registered usb key was used.
Unfortunatelly i have problem with sd cards because i always get serial number of card reader and not serial no od SD card.
Is there some way to get serial no from SD card via Card reader? Can you send me the model of card reader which is possible to read this SN + Software?
Is there some dll or component for reading usable for .net visual basic?
Thank you for informations.

Write or modified Cid of sd card ?
Translated with google translation
Hello you know how to modify the cid of a card sd ??
thank you in advance
Desire HD
When I installed LeeDroid 3.21 I followed instructions and I formatted SD and made partition.
Today I downgraded my phone to stock 1.32 in order to use easy radio tool and to det super cid, sim unlock and radio s-off
i did it
now i wanna give a try to revolutionary hd 5.21 and decide should i use it or continue with leedroid.
In clockworkmod i formatted sd card and when I mount it on my PC I se external disk with 6.44GB capacity only.
Does it should be like that?
I doubt that partition which I made before has not been deleted when I format sd and i cannot see it now
i have no sd-ext option in clockwordmod
thanks
I use gold card tool, do everything right, tool says that card is patched... Than I try to install 2.3.5 official Rom for Europe (my phone is for Asian market), but I get an error, it says that i dont have good CID, or something like that?? Please help
The goldcard did not work. Make it again and make sure the card is 2GB or smaller.
I tried few times, but nothing happened... I forgot to say that my phone isnt branded, it is just bought in Asia, but i use it in Europe... Maybe that matters... Card is smaller than 2 gb.
Try to make the Gold Card again.
Here's how I made the GoldCard and upgraded my T-MOB branded DS using the European RUU (I use it in Greece).
1. Used a 2GB SD card (from an old BBerry I have), inserted it in the DS and then went to "Settings" --> "SD Card & Phone Storage" --> "Unmount SD Card" and then "Erase SD Card".
2. right click and "run as admin" to launch the GoldCard tool (windows executable that can be found in many topics in xda & I'm attaching it here too).
3. connect your phone to your pc usb port and make sure that it is in "charge only" and you have "usb debugging" enabled.
4. On the GoldCard tool click on "get CID" and if it does not work for mmc1 try mmc1 or use the "Gold Card Helper" from Market to get the mmc2 CID as I did.
5. Open the link mentioned in Gold Card Tool to go to RevSkills site and paste the MMC reverse CID, select android goldcard type, and you can download your goldcard image file.
6. Change your phone to "USB Mass storage" and click refresh in Gold Card Tool until you see the drive letter assigned to the SD Card of your phone.
7. Select now "Format MMC" to format your card, then click Load GoldCard.img & browse to the image file you downloaded in step #5.
8. Select "Patch MMC" and once it's done, you have a GoldCard!
After that you can start the RUU update process!
Thank you for detailed answer, bud i did the same thing:/ I am not home right now, but when i get home, i will follow your instructions, and try again. I will let you know if i make it work Thanks for help.
Maybe the problem is that I dont use two sd cards? I mean I use emty one, I dont have any files on it, but I dont have the second... Do I need to use two cards?
No, it's not necessary. I just used another card because on my primary I have lots of files, images, music etc. and I also had the backup of my apps and didn't want to mess with it.
But generally in almost all directions that I found on the net, the use of a 2GB maximum SD card was suggested. I don't know if that may be the issue in your case (I assume that your DS also has an 8GB SD card like mine).
I solved the problem... The CID I was getting from gold card tool on PC was wrong! Actualy, I downloaded golden card helper from market, and that app read two CID-s from my card. One was the same like the one I got with PC app, and the other one was different! I tried with that different, and everything worked. Thanks for help!

Hi.
I tried to use the Gold Card for my Sensation XL but ended up with a mobile cannot mount the internal sd card. Any idea how to undo?
Thanks.
I have a branded vodafone DS, CID VODAPD18 (Vodafone Portugal).
SW 2.10.168.3, S-On, unlocked, unrooted.
Can i run rru "RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.9_Radio_20.4801.30 . 0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_234765_signed" with a goldcard?
Won't brick my phone? What about possible future OTA / RUU updates (ie ICS, present version with bugs) ? only with goldcard? And it includes PTG language?
CID / supercid inly with root, right?
please advise.
Thx

What all do you need? Like what is the name and link to eBay for the cord you need. Also is it recquired to have an Android device for this? And how many SD cards to you need?
Hello
I'm Trying to Downgrade my WP7 using the GoldCard method
Unfortunately i have no Android/WM6 to get my MicroSD's CID from to generate the goldcard image. I only have a USB SD reader and MicroSD to SD adapter
I have access to Linux if necessary.
How am i supposed to get my Card's CID?
Thank you
Bump.
