Command Error when changing CID

Hi folks,
I have unlocked and s-offd my Voda HTC Chacha.. installed a WWE Rom but havent recieved any OTA since then.. I am on 1.19 and there is a 1.54 OTA out..
just checked the CID through adb and its set to Super CID 11111111 instead of generic HTC__001. Tried changing it but I get Command Error. Any idea or solution for this?
Also, Is this the reason why no OTA are showing up?
If no, please advise how can I update the phone via OTA
Many thanks

What's your full version number? Afaik, 1.19 isn't a WWE ROM, it's Vodafone UK

Here are the full details mate:
Android 2.3.3
Software 1.19.206.2
Baseband 47.14.35.3030h_7.47.35.17
Kernel 2.6.35.10-g8db500e
cheers

Searching "1.19.206.2" on Google brings me back to a thread here in XDA's Chacha section saying it's an O2 ROM - so you see any O2 apps or bootanimations? I've heard that O2 don't actually "brand" their Android phones with apps, but still make all updates go through them.
EDIT: Yup, 1.19.206.1/2 is an O2-UK ROM - I found this out from this forum thread: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/7588766-post44.html
RUU_Chacha_O2_UK_1.19.206.1_Radio_47.14.35.3030H_7 .47.35.17_release_195486_signed.exe
RUU_Chacha_O2_UK_1.19.206.2_Radio_47.14.35.3030H_7 .47.35.17_release_197936_signed.exe
As you can see, your software number refers to 1 of 2 O2 UK RUUs
You should flash the 1.33.401.1 RUU from this thread, then see if you get an OTA update to 1.52.401.1 - if not, try downloading it from this thread and apply it via stock Recovery, which is reported to work if you're S-OFF and have a correct CID (HTC__001 for example) or SuperCID.

Fantastic mate, downloaded it as we speak..
not sure how it stayed on 1.19 as after I used XTC Clip, the logos and boot image were gone so I assumed I had a stock rom.. oh well.. everyday is a learning day..
I will let you know how I get on..
cheers for your help mate..

Update... Installed the 1.33 which then took the OTA update which is all good... However I still can't change the CID to HTC__001.. (currently set at 1111111)

why you like to change the CID?
SUPER-CID (1111111) might have set during S-off thru xtc clip.... SUPER-CID (1111111) signifies you device is universal device, which enables to flash all languages/APN/other settings in your phone

True, but it forces non-qwerty keyboard users to manually modify the layout in /system/usr/
as described here , because CID is taken into account on default layout.
Once you know the trick, it's OK, but really annoying to do every time you install a new ROM

H3G__001 UK Stock image anyone?

EDIT:
Here is the official RUU for H3G (Three UK) standard model Sensation
Was pointed out by another forum member, so I have mirrored it onto Mutliupload.
http://www.multiupload.com/5IQK830UIJ
Now everyone who has to send their Sensation supplied by Three in for warranty, just...
Make sure CID is H3G__001 (or SuperCID 11111111, though if CID is this, you don`t really need this ROM)
Once CID is correctly set, reboot into bootloader menu and run the RUU.
Having correct CID enables you to receive OTA updates once you have installed the RUU / ROM. If you update OTA, bare in mind, that it will also update your HBOOT to 1.18.0000 *Locked*
So once you have done this, do S-on to resecure your NAND and there you go... Ready for a warranty return...
My 0.0000000000002p worth anyway.
Thought it might help people who are on Three...
Tested and confirmed by me
Hello everyone!
I`m sorry to trouble everyone, but I was wondering if anybody had a backup of the original three uk (CID: H3G__001) ROM?
I have changed my CID and got Android Revolution installed.
I would just like a copy of this original ROM for warranty purposes.
I have looked at the stock ROMs pages and I can see the generic pyramid roms, however I keep drawing a blank when it comes to anything from H3G (three)
Any advice anyone could give?
or maybe...
1) Would someone who owns a UK H3G sensation (standard one) could upload an image somehow?
2) Would I be able to create a ROM indestinguishable from the original one installed (which includes startup logos OEM three crapware etc...)
3) Yes I was a complete dipsh*t for not making a nandroid backup (I was a complete Android virgin, iPhones were my bag)
Any advice/flaming is much welcomed!
I HAVE FOUND THE RUU!!!
Made a multiupload link for it so it is easier to find. Will put the link on as soon I`ve got 8 posts!

ya not on ya own there, I have done several flashes, always backing up original 1st, but for some reason this step was "missed" when i flashed arhd to

There's an RUU somewhere, search for it

I have searched everywhere I can think of. I am aware of the stock HTC ruu files. These seem to be the generic ones and they are incompatible with my CID. I have changed my CID but would just be nice to find the proper RUU so I can change it completely to stock, and not just to the generic one. I'm sure changing the CID will invalidate the warranty.

EDIT:
The Three Stock RUU works 100%. For newbies... Remember:
CID must be 11111111 (SuperCID) or H3G__001 to receive Over-The-Air updates. To change CID, search elsewhere! There are TWO underscores in the CID
To avoid 155 error when running RUU, run RUU when in recovery... Use adb to get into recovery or pull battery / vol down / power... You know the score!
I`m sure all this has been posted a thousand times, but I`m hoping it will help people who are on Three UK (Hutchison 3G).

Many thx

HTC India to HTC Europe

Hi,
I'm in the UK and I bought my Sensation XE from Hong Kong and use it with a T-mobile sim.
The mobile seems to think it's Indian and I would like to change it to a UK or euro setup.
At present it has HBOOT 1.18 and has CID HTC__038 with ro.carrier HTC-India. Software number is 1.77.720.103.
I had to use locale app to change it from india to UK so that I could have a UK keyboard/dictionary and also receive UK news in the news app.
Now it's coming up to release time for ICS and I would like to make my phone so that it receives the UK version.
Is it possible to flash my phone with the most recent Euro RUU to do this? If I do will I still need to change the CID to HTC__001 and will the RUU change all the bits relating to India that show up when you run the CID Getter app?
I've tried running the RUU > "RUU_PYRAMID_LE_HTC_Europe_1.73.401.4_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_220036_signed" and it looks as though it will change my software version to a version lower than it is currently on. From what I have read on the thread > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193033&page=2 about "How to debrand...." I was under the impression I might need to use revolutionary to get S-OFF, change my CID to HTC__001 or HTC11111 run the RUU then put S-ON again or leave it off.
All just a little confused as to what's best to do.
Sorry for the long post with multiple questions.
I updated the Mrs Desire to Runnymede AIO without too much headache the other day so thought I'd look into sorting out my XE.
Cheers

Finally got there by myself.
Had to HTC Dev unlock bootloader. Flash recovery with 4EXT recovery. Use 4EXT recovery to flash an old ROM with HBOOT 1.17. Use Revolutionary to get S-OFF. Use RUU for most recent Euro GB ROM.
No have S-OFF, Unlocked bootloader, 1.18 HBOOT, Stock HTC european ROM. CID HTC__001.
Still no ICS update available when checking updates though

S-OFF and warranty

I am sorry, because this have probably been asked many times, but I have a little more specific question. I have HTC Sensation rooted, and S-OFF. Now I want to send it to the service under warranty, because I noticed there is a dust under my screen.
I know what I have to do, but I dont know which default rom should I choose, so they definitely would not suspect anything. Does it have to be carrier specific or just some random EU rom? I am from Slovenia, my carrier is Simobil (Vodafone).
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

you need to flash one based on your cid which kinda gives you carrier,country info
use this guide as reference

Thank you, i just read this, however I still dont know how to find the right ruu for my phone. There is no Simobil Slovenia on the ruu list. Any other way to find out which rom to flash? The thing is I dont really remember whether I changed my CID at some point or not, so I might not be able to see/find the correct one.
Thanks again.

Ok here is what I found out now:
If i check for CID via fastboot i get this: 11111111 (i remember now, i set this)
But if i check it via application CIDgetter i get this: HTC_032
Q: Is this HTC_032 the true default CID or it could be just the info of currently installed rom, which is Viper 1.3.5 ?

Hi,
CIDGetter will show you your original CID.
When you check it via fastboot,you will get your ACTUAL CID.
If you are s-off,then , you should be able to run a European RUU and get back to stock.
Then, follow the guide ganesh gave you to s-on.

the cid you got via fastboot is the current one you are having
and HTC_032 is the rom cid ..so if you are having stock rom ..it represents your actual cid

Thank you both for your answers. Hmm, so one of you think that CIDgetter gives you original cid, and one thinks it gives you the CID of current rom. If ganeshp is right, then I still dont know my original CID, as currently I have Viper S 1.3.5 rom :// If malybru is right then I have to flash rom with HTC_032 CID and not just any European rom? Again it is important, because I dont want to get rejected on my warranty...
Thanks again.

both of us (me and Malybru ) are saying the same thing
cid from fastboot ..gives you the actual/current cid you have right now
cid from cid getter ..will give you the rom cid (in case of viper it is HTC__032)
also based on your country ..i think the fitting RUU is indeed is of European Unbranded one (as malybru said )
if the phone is not linked to carrier (like contract phone ) then European unbranded is the right RUU

It has been bought through carrier contract, but they stopped locking them, but it could still be locked in case it was from old stock... I'll have to try that, so in case it is locked to the carrier, I need different rom? Im sorry for so many questions but im really lost in finding the right rom.

[Q] Help with TMB101 branding

Hi guys,
I would like some help with flashing a Stock RUU onto my desire s.. I have gotten it S-On and removed revolutionary.
You can see my phoneinformation from adb below i attached it. Hboot 0.98 and a T-MB101 branding.. Build(main) 2.10.401.5 german phone
The problem is I cannot find any RUU to flash which will work for my Phone (I open them as admin)
I have tried the TMO 1.3.111.1 with the RUU error 140
I have tried the 2.10.401.5 and 8 and 9 builds for EU but they all give me error 131 (as they are not for branded phones?)
What can I do know what RUU could work how do I get the TMO to work? Are there any more RUUS I could even try to use? Should I try a Goldcard? Any Ideas? Thanks guys..
Please Help
