Downgrade / changing CID - HTC Sensation

Dear XDA members,
I have an HTC Senstion Vodafone branded with CID: VODAPE17. I cannot use the Europe ROM to downgrade my sensation because it says that the Customer I is wrong. In order the change my CID i have to be root. I have hboot 1.27.xxx. My other senstion also had hbot 1.27.xxx but that one is not branded, so i downgraded the software to get hboot 1.117.xx and use revolutionary to hack it. My Vodafone sensation wont downgrade and i cant unlock my bootloader. I tried the Vodafone UK rom but i still get the same error of i want to downgrade.
Does anyone know where i can find the vodafone rom with hboot 1.17.xxx and CID VODAPE17?

You can s-off and root using this tool and then you can change your cid and so on.

Can this brick my phone should i do it or not or its risky?
I think you can if your phone is s-off. just change your cid to that of the ruu you are flashing or changed cid to super cid which 11111111.

About S=Off & superCID 11111111

this thread(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257776) says:
You will need to have S=Off and superCID set to 11111111 using XTC Clip.
I was going to a mobile shop and i was bought "S-OFF", i have installed CWM and root, and new rom with RU.
but i don't know what is my CID (if i have s-off, i have super cid 11111111?)
can i install radio?
thanks!
You can use CIDGetter from market to check your CID number.
thanks! i have cid 1111111
Then you're ready for anything. You can flash 1.33 then update to 1.52 then install CWM then root.
Isnt supercid what goldcard gives temorarily? (It allowed me to flash 1.33 on o2 phone. Using ruu version.
can i somehow make use of my goldcard to flash to 1.52 ota? As it doesnt update on s-on which seems toi be cid related (on or off).
Any way to get it without s-off?

[Q] S-OFF on HBOOT 1.20

Is there an S-OFF available for HBOOT 1.20? Saw "locked" after flashing 1.20 and S-ONed phone. Finally unlocked using htcdev but nothing I found could help me downgrade HBOOT and do S-OFF again. Do not have SuperCID atm.
there is a thread on this your still rooted even though it says s on
Yeah, I am still rooted and can get into recovery and flash ROMs. But I am having issues with signal and I cannot flash anything because 1.20 does not support fastboot commands. I would like to downgrade but cannot. I tried flashing the customized p85img.zip with my CID T-MOB010 and it would just return to menu w/o any messages.
Make sure it's p85img in the file name.
Don't INSERT .zip at the end. It should automatically be a .zip file.
The file is named correctly.
There is a thread here ima try and find it were you can revert back to hboot 1.17.0000

i m facinf d same problm wit my sensation with bootloader unlocked thro htc dev. i m unable 2 flash any radios. Even i m unable to flash any custom firmware also. I need ur help if u found any solution.
either downgrade your hboot to 1.17 or update to ics 3.24 which has hboot 1.27 (unlocked) and you will have advance fastboot commands
Same exact problem here, semi-bricked my phone before I went over to Htcdev.... attempting to flash a p85img for HBOOT 1.17 or any p85img does nothing but parse it. Searched all day today couldn't find a thing to help...Others have suggested just waiting until Revolution comes out with an Unlock for 1.20 but I'm determined to find a solution for us.

Is my handset ready for OTA again

Quick question,
Can some one please help clarify if my HTC sensation is caple of receiving the ICS OTA update. (UK)
Stock ROM 1.50.401.1 CL125597 release-keys
CID HTC__001
S-OFF
10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M
This phone was on o2. (UK)
I unlocked it via code to accept my "3" network simcard.
I S-off'd,Rooted & SuperCID 11111111 to install some custom roms, now I have flashed with a RRU.exe to restore stock recovery. Also re-done the CID to HTC_001.. all to prepare for OTA ICS.
So, Does this look like im ready for the OTA of ICS, as I cannot tell.
Thank you very much xda
You can flash it manually but I think you need s-on to get the ota itself

Or flash official RUU, make S-ON and then you can receive and install OTA without problems
RUU is already flashed so they just need to S-ON if they want to get the proper OTA
Interesting,
I had CID from Vodafone then I did S-OFF and changed the CID to HTC__001 and flashed stock HTC Europe ROM.
Afterwards I received OTA updates (ICS not yet).
Do I really need to change to S-ON?
Is it dangerous to change to S-ON in my constellation (coming from a vodafone branded phone)?

[Q] Rebranding issue

Hi everyone,
I wanted to rebrand my Sensation to exchange it due to some hardware-issues.
I restored the CID and made it S-ON but when i tried to install the latest RUU (for vodafone, germany:
RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_Vodafone_DE_3.32.162.11_R_Radio_11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2_release_251539_signed)
I recieved an error 140 because of wrong update client.
So do I have to downgrade the firmware or the hboot? And how do I do it?
current firmware-version: 3.33.401.106
current hboot-version:1.29.0000

because now you have S-ON you can't use a ruu with lower firmware than yours
you should do that when you were still S-OFF
now with S-ON you can use a ruu only with 3.33 firmware version
otherwise S-OFF again and then downgrade the firmware to 3.32
