No Updates after Unroot - HTC Sensation

Ok, so I had my Sensation rooted with a custom ROM but decided to put it back to stock (mainly to be able to use Sky Player). It has been 3 weeks since I did it and I've not had an update. It's stuck with Android 2.3.3. When I try to manually update It tells me that no updates are available.
Any Ideas?

for you to recieve OTA ..the CID must match
check the CID using
this command
fastboot getvar cid
if its not matching
change it to your region CID using this command
fastboot oem writecid <your cid>
eg: fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
check/get your original cid from here

Thanks for the reply.
I just checked. My CID is set as VODAP001, which should be correct for Vodafone UK.
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance.

anybody???
Would having S-OFF have any effect?

[Q] Upgrade hboot to stop navigation from crashing...

I've heard that people on hboot 1.14 aren't having problems with the navigation... For me, this has always been a problem from day one... How can I upgrade my hboot? Probably this is a noob question, but I couldn't find any tutorial... Thanks
I doubt that is causing the problem. HBOOT has nothing to do with software running on the phone.

That's not exactly true. We've seen it happen in the CM10 thread where there were different behaviors with different hboots.

HBOOT may not be causing the problem, could be anything from SBL1,2 and 3 to adsp. New software versions have different radios, HBOOTs, etc.
Already tried different radios, I'm on CM10. This has been a issue for many people... Check out this
http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=6611
and read comment 3 by intervigil... he says " For what it's worth, I and others on HBOOT/firmware 1.14 do not have this issue. "
That's why I want to try hboot 1.14...
HBOOT gets upgraded by running a newer RUU than installed.
Which version are you on? Which HBOOT do you currently use?
By the way, found out something funny:
I was on 1.14.0001 and 2.31 HTC ROM .. I downgraded HBOOT to 1.06 (tried something), then flashed 2.31 RUU again, it upgraded HBOOT to 1.14.0002.

No problem
Use this app to tell us your CID. It is written at the top.
RUU files are official HTC firmware tools, which reset your phone and update your Android.
And please tell us which version you are using: Go to Settings, Info, Software-Information, write down "Software-Number"... Should be something like 2.31.xxx.x

In that case, go to HBOOT and type fastboot getvar cid or fastboot oem readcid into an adb window.
I don't think it is in alphabetical order. Or you can open your build.prop in system, transfer it to a computer, and search using notepad++ or similar.

You will have to root, but you will remain unlocked. You will need to flash a SuperUser zip.
Boot into FASTBOOT USB mode.
Since your CID is VODAP304, type fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 (with two underscores). Then download this file, and place it in your adb folder. Then type fastboot flash hboot ville114.nb0 (make sure it is nb0, not nbO). Reboot into the bootloader again, and you should have HBOOT 1.14.
Or alternatively, after writing CID, just run the HTC WWE 2.31 RUU. That will also work.
As an FYI, RUUs for many phones can be found at http://www.4shared.com/folder/jKN2qjTl/HTC_Ville_RUU_Collection.html
and a discussion can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543588
To flash an RUU, you can only flash one that has an equal or greater bootloader version (ie you cant downgrade). RUUs will upgrade your bootloader if you flash a version that is greater.
You also need to flash an RUU that corresponds to your CID. The RUU wont flash if the CID doesnt correspond. However, you can also turn your CID into a SuperCID to flash any other RUU. There is DEV thread on this as well.
Oh and you need to relock your bootloader before starting the RUU.
Cheers,
AKToronto

Waste of time as long as the rom is working you only need to S-Off and then flash the RUU. I know it been updated but at the time I had to use a RUU to get my phone working again and went to S-Off and couldn't in till I flashed Viper2.

tried installing the JB RUU over my stock 2.31 ICS, but i get an unknown error ..im s-off already and changed cid to HTC__001, and i get the system notification for the JB OTA..is it safe to just install the OTA? coz i've read in another thread that some devices got bricked by installing the OTA (although they are using supercid when they upgraded..

After s-off the CID changing is easy and S-off disables signature checking so you can extract the rom.zip(ruu) and edit the android-info and change the mid in that text file save it and then add it to some.zip and flash it as RUU , it will work ! But remember you will need s-off, and you will get OTAs , Donot relock the bootloader ! the bootloader should be saying S-off and unlocked .

[HOWTO] [HTC One SV] Unbrand your phone to get the OTA updates

Bonjour everyone, here's a little guide on how to unbrand your phone in order to get the OTA updates notifications directly and be able to install them.
If you want to get S-OFF one day on your One SV, read this first. You need to change CID to SuperCID to do so, and it's not possible (for the moment) if you upgrade to JB
Basically this works as long as your phone model is sold unbranded somewhere in the world and that the people having such a phone got an OTA update.
For now, ther's no way to change CID if you're running JB and are S-ON. That means that this only work for One SV's running ICS who want to get the OTA updates.
As far as I know, it works on K2_U and K2_UL, since they both got an OTA update to JB.
The trick is simple, I didn't invent it and haven't been able to find its original founder, but thanks a lot to her or him !
I'm basically just a messenger here since I only tried out some stuff that worked with other phones, so thanks a lot to bkcokota, old.splatterhand and jmztaylor
Don't try it if you're worried, bricks happen, you'd be the only one responsible !
Here we go :
1. First you need to root your phone, here's how.
2. Change you CID using the same method than for the One S.
Personnaly, I changed it to "HTC__203", which is the CID unbranded HTC phones have in France (HTC-FRA).
For example, "HTC__001" is HTC-WWE, which stands for World Wide English.
You can change it to whatever CID you like : choose it well. I can only recommend to use HTC__203 since it's the only one I tried and that it worked, but do as you please !
3. Flash stock recovery back. You'll find it here or here. Flash it like you flashed CWM recovery (into fastboot, using fastboot flash recovery xxxxxx.img).
4. Relock your bootloader. It's possible that it's not necessary, but it can't hurt ("fastboot oem lock", when in fastboot usb)
5. Run a RUU that matches you unbranded CID to get an "unbranded" rom.
You'll find them here, for example. The "RUU_K2_UL_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.5_R....exe" one will work with HTC__203 and HTC__001 CIDs.
6. Go ask your phone if he can find any updates
WARNING : for the moment there's no way to change CID if you upgrade to JB since the newer HBOOT (v2.00) don't let you do it. That means that for now you won't be able to S-OFF if you upgrate to JB using this method. For now...
Nice one!
Only thing i would add for people to know:
if somebody want to get S-Off, they should change the CID to SuperCID 11111111 (or if you want 22222222,...).

Done, sir.
It was only said at the bottom of the message at first, but now I put it at the beginning as well.
There's one thing that I'm trying to get though : according to a lot of people and forums, you don't get OTA when you have SuperCID... but some poeple say they do.
It probably changes depending on the type of HTC phone, but also depending on the OTA (some got the first ones, but not the latest...).
I got the ota notification with SuperCID, i think it depends on more things.
But there i'm not far enough into it.
I have had no success at all. My story:
Updated a branded phone to JB, rooted. Then I did a moonshine S-off and changed CID to HTC__001 (even tried 11111111).
I have downloaded a ICS RUU (couldn't find stock K2_UL so I thought that I would download ICS first and then do OTA to JB) but I am getting error 158. I have checked md5 sum and it matches (http://androidfiles.org/ruu/getdown...0.14_2_10.49.40.11L_release_301902_signed.exe). Any ideas?
If you're on jb and hboot 2.00, that's normal... and written in the first post.
There is information that it is impossible to change CID while on JB and with 2.0 hboot, but I guess that I have had success in changing to superCID (at least this is what I can read in bootloader and using fastboot oem readcid command.
So, as far as I understand newer hboot won't let me use older RUU as well, right?

To get it a bit clearer.
At this point i'm not very up to date, thats why i didn't answer til now.
I think (but i'm not sure) you can flash the ruu, if you are on hboot 1.0.
And as you are S-Off you should be able to downgrade hboot. But this is a very risky point, you can easily brick your device. Here is, how you have to do:

To change hboot you will need a PL80IMG.zip on sdcard with android-info.txt and hboot.img inside it.

The thing what makes it difficult, is to get the hboot.img (its inside ics ruu), cause the htc ruu's encrypted and i only have heard about tools for linux which can decrypt it.
Thanks to your reply I did some research and I have managed to do what I wanted. I have downgraded hboot first (by extracting and encrypting ICS RUU using linux), then I could run RUU and now I am stock ICS with S-off and superCID
Should I post some files from RUU? 1.0 hboot or stock recovery? You guys need something?
Thanks for your helping hand old.splatterhand!

Thanks and congratulations !
Hi everyone.
Just a quick message to confirm that rollon's method works.
To downgrade you need to be S-OFF, extract and decrypt (with ruuveal, using linux or a linux virtualbox runned in windows) hboot and androidinfo from ICS RUU, put them in a zip named PL80IMG.zip, put it on your sd card and boot into bootloader. Then you can run the ICS RUU normally and you'll be back to stock ICS, with a "*** LOCKED ***" bootloader (not relocked !), will be able to go back to S-ON using "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" (thanks to JMZ)...
You'll then have a locked S-ON out of box phone running 100% stock ICS with original boot, recovery and all that... who'll get the 2 JB OTA's...
In case anyone's interested

Is it possible to do a JB RUU after i just superCID and S-OFF? Because i wanna go back to stock.

You can use any ruu while s-OFF, just simply plug phone to computer and run ruu. No need to relock bootloader.
For the supercid, it is recommended to change it back to original with fastboot command.

There has been a few bricks takin Jb ota while still supercid.

Its not mandatory to change your SuperCID back to stock just to install a RUU (with OTA RUU you get problems, but not with normal ones).

[Q] Can't update RUU "Error: 159"

Hello Guys,
I am trying to update my RUU, but always get the same error while running (Image Error:159). My Phone is T-Mobile Germany, but i have changed the CID to HTC__001 in order to install the HTC Europe RUU. Also tried the T-Mobile Germany RUU with the T-MOB101 cid, but i still get the same Error. My Hboot is 1.09 and my Rom is CM10, but it won't boot for now.
Really need my phone, so it would be awesome, if someone help me.

You mean T-MOB010, right?
Why not switch to 11111111 super CID?

No T-Mob101 is the CID for T-Mobile Germany and T-Mob010 for T-Mobile US. I'm not leaving it to 11111111, because i have to change it matching the RUU i want to update.

If you go to 11111111, then you can install any RUU.
The error you are getting indicates the RUU you want to install does not match your CID.
So 11111111 will let you install the RUU you want. Then switch your CID back to whatever.

Yeah, you can flash whatever radio, ROM, etc after the fact.
This is just to get your phone booting again.
Don't forget to lock your boot loader before running the RUU.
