[Q]debranding tmobile htc one s problems - HTC One S

hi all....i recently bought a t mobile htc one s and i am planning on debranding it....i dont live in the US and i dont need any of t mobiles services....my plan is to debrand it and get stock htc rom on it...i dont plan on using the phone rooted, so i want to be able to get OTA updates and everything, basically i want it to be like stock european htc one s....i google and found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674202
after i rooted my phone i followed the steps in the link and was able to change my cid to HTC__001 from T-MOB010. i downloaded the european 2.31 RUU from http://www.filecrop.com/Ruu-HTC-One-S.html and when i ran it i got error code 130....my model id (PJ4011000) is different from the one the RUU is meant for (PJ4010000). so i was unable to debrand. i googled on how to change the modelid and read somehwere that i had to modify my build.prop file....followed the steps in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236732 and changed the model id to PJ4010000 from PJ4011000 wherever it appeared in the build.prop file and pushed it back onto the phone, but still the ruu is giving the same error code 130.
i couldnt find any more links to help so i am posting it here. anyone have any ideas ? thanks
p.s i installed the stock recovery and the stock boot using fastboot and relocked the boot loader before trying to install using ruu. and the 2.31 ruu is compatible with HTC__001

Try it without installing the recovery and boot before the RUU. There is no need to do that. Just relock and run the RUU, it will restore the boot and recovery for you.

hmmm......i thought the model id is stored in the build.prop file, dont know how this can fix that....i heard the ruu checks for cid and the modelid...i am passing the cid check, its the model id where i get stuck....anyways will try it out and let you guys know....its my only phone currently so might be a few days

Guys, I have debranded my T-Mobile One S just a couple weeks ago. Unless you have a Super-CID and locked (relocked) bootloader, you won't be able to install a European RUU on T-Mobile One S. On the other hand, MID is stored not only in build.prop file but in areas inaccessible unless you are S-OFF, so you can flash European RUU but you still won't be able to OTA and will have to wait for the new update RUU when (if ever, you know what I'm talking about) it comes out.
You can find how to Super-CID in this post.

Is debranding needed in order to flash custom ROM ?

No. You just need to root the phone to install custom rom.

I am a bit confused with the above update and the thread here . The OP in the thread claims that he was able to de-brand his TMOUS HOS without SuperCID of 11111111.
Can somebody please clear the confusion?
Also, after de-branding, does the WiFi work on HOS which was previously TMOUS branded?

hmmm....i wasnt able to flash the european RUU...as mentioned it gave me an error (code 130, model id not matching or something)....so forget OTA updates, even flashing the RUU was impossible with my current model id....i did consider going the super cid route but i heard that the jelly bean OTA update bricks phones with super cid...thats why i wanna get a more 'legitimate' cid like HTC__001....

yeah the OP in that thread was able to debrand....and i think he used the HTC__001 cid ...dont know what the model number of his phone is....i think it might be matching with the one in the european RUU (PJ4010000)....does anyone know of any unbranded RUU that supports the model id PJ4011000 ??

I was able to flash my htc one s T-Mobile us with RUU_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.5_Radio_1.06es.50.02.31_10.09a.50.04L_release_275655 using superCID 11111111 it work perfectly however it is impossible to install the OTA update JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8.

yw2012 thanks for your answer.
I suppose that no problem exists with this phone, a custom ROM could be flashed :
HTC One S
T-MOB101
HBOOT-1.14.0002
RADIO-1.09es.50.02.07_2
Android version : 4.0.4
HTC Sense version : 4.1
Software number : 2.38.111.10
Baseband version : 1.09es.50.02.07_2_10.09d.50.04L
Build number : 2.38.111.10 CL97613 release-keys
Bootloader unlocked
Rooted with SuperSU
ROM Stock

Well, I'd like to confirm that there's no way to flash a European RUU on USA T-Mobile device unless you Super-CID. There are also European T-Mobile branded phones, e.g. T-Mobile Germany. Those ones can be debranded using generic HTC__001 CID.
Small statistic report from fellow community (Not my own work):
1. HTC One S (Z520e) 1&1 Germany : CID: HTC__102 GER -> CID changed to 11111111 Super CID -> OTA --> OK!
2. HTC One S (Z520e) T-Mobile Germany : CID: T-MOB101 - TMD -> CID changed to HTC__102 GER -> OTA --> OK!
Few things you need to obey strictly when OTA to be safe, based on current brick reports:
1. Locked/relocked bootloader
2. Everything stock, no root, no custom recovery:
Code:
Radio: 1.06es.50.02.31_10.09a.50.04L
HBOOT: 1.14.0002
Recovery: Stock
ROM: Stock 2.31.401.5
3. CIDs:
Code:
cidnum: 11111111
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__A07
4. FULLY CHARGED, CHARGING/SYNC CABLE DETACHED, leave the phone alone and let it apply the OTA update

So if I get it correctly, I can change my T-Mobile US HTC one s to cid HTC__001 and I can debrand it and still have OTA?

Thanks a lot for the vital info. i never tried flashing the RUU using super cid. i will try.
some more things of concern. lets say i change my cid to super cid (11111111) and am able to flash the 2.31 european RUU
1) does wifi/cellular radio of the t mobile US one s work with the european RUU?
2) and lets say i follow all the steps you recommended before an OTA update, the jelly bean OTA update wont brick my phone? is this right ? is there anyone who has successfully updated to jelly bean while on super cid ?

sorry, i dont seem to get what you said. changing the cid will let you flash a different RUU but as people mentioned in this thread, you cant install an european RUU with generic cid like HTC__001 on a Tmobile US phone (cause of differing model id i presume). you can however install using super cid (i havent verified this myself and ofcourse i claim no responsibility ). but i dont know whether you can successfully update using OTA while on supercid

- I got the rom.zip from the RUU.exe.
- This .zip has a file called android-info.txt which mentions the "modelid: PJ4011000".
- I wonder if somehow you are able to edit this .zip and change modelid to match the current in phone, you might be able to do OTA update on HTC__001 unbranded phone from TMOUS.
As usual this is just a speculation with no real data to back it up. So use it on your own risk. I am not responsible to any damage this does to your phone :fingers-crossed:

No, you won't even be able to run a European RUU in this case.
anand_s,
to answer your questions,
1) wifi/cellular radio works like a charm with the european RUU.
2) you will receive a request to receive a European JB OTA, it will even download but it will give you a message that you have different software on the phone and it won't install, so everything's fine with that, you'll just have to run a European JB RUU if it becomes available.
And yes, you are right regarding everything else. There's OTA on SuperCID, but MIDs mismatch and it does not install, it does not break your phone either.
I personally have US T-mobile One S S4, have unlocked bootloader, SuperCID and running a european RUU 2.31.

starting Jan26 unlocking phones will be ilegal in US
for all you people from US, if you want to unlock and debrand your phone I strongly suggest doing it today; tomorrow it will be a crime
http://www.techspot.com/news/51439-...ne-will-become-a-crime-starting-saturday.html
wtf is that? you really have lots of control freak people walking freely on the streets, and even worse, they're writing laws . . .

This does not work, unfortunately. I tried it (the RUU extracts everything well before actually flashing, so at the last 'Next' dialog, I unzipped rom.zip in the temp folder, changed the MID in android_info.txt from PJ4010000 to PJ4011000, saved, and zipped it again), but no luck. This time, the RUU process fails with Error 132 (Signature error) rather than Error 130 (model ID error).
This is with changing CID from T-MOB010 to HTC__001. I'm now trying 11111111.
Edit: Changing the CID to 11111111 works, so you can flash the European 2.31 RUU for model ID PJ4010000 to the T-Mobile (US) One S with model ID PJ4011000. I didn't dare update to the Jelly Bean OTA (it showed up as available) thanks to this thread.

- First of all thanks for all the updates. Moreover thanks for the brick-after-jb-update-on-super-cid thread.
- I wonder does it makes sense to de-brand TMOUS to European version at this point of time, if we are not able to do JB update.
- I think this should be attempted when the RUU for European JB is available. Not sure thought if that will help.

[Q] RUU for my One S S3

Where can I get a stock rom for my One S s3? its locked to Optus. I checked in the thread but all I can find was roms for euro.. I Can't change my CID either because my phone is villeC2.
Can anyone help me?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
It's bad news, but there is no Optus RUU for the S4 or S3 as far as I'm aware of.
You'll need to change the CID to HTC__001 or HTC__032 or something else unbranded for an unbranded RUU to work.

There has to be something I can do.
Has anyone with a S3 been able to change there CID or atleast flash a Stock RUU with the CID OPTUS001?

Im sorry i don't understand are you saying if i have a nandroid backup of the state when I was on stock before I rooted? Becuase I dont?
Im on Trickdroid 3 but i cant use 4 because I need to flash back to stock... and i just dont know how to do that without the RUU...
I mean after you unlocked your bootloader, but before you rooted, if that makes sense? If you have a nandroid of that state you can restore to that, and then relock your bootloader.
No i didnt unfortanatly is there anything i can do at all to get back to stock on the S3?

I think not. I have the same issue or even worse, for some reason TD3 stuck with bootscreen.
Well thats an easy fix do a full wipe/cache in twrp recovery.
-Install TD2 with the appropriate boot.img
-let it boot
-Install TD3 with the appropriate boot.img
-wait for it to boot and then you can install the tweak package
who can offer one s s3 OPTUS001 firmware or OTA,very thankyou!
My phone htc one s s3,now still 4.0.3,It haven't find official RUU and super cid method ,so, who can offer one s s3 OPTUS001 firmware or OTA
thankyou very much!

[Q] Need Help Getting SuperCID with MID/CID Mismatch

Hi! First time posting in this amazing community...
I have an HTC One S (T-Mo). I was fooling around with it and flashed it with HTC_Europe 3.16 firmware. I didn't realize that the device was SuperCID already, and flashing changed the CID to HTC__001. (CRAP)
It's also S-ON (double CRAP)...
So here I am:
-I can't Facepalm because I can't get SuperCID.
-I can't Moonshine because the CID is HTC__001 and doesn't match the MID (T-Mobile), so neither the Europe nor T-Mo RUUs work...
So - how can I get the device back to SuperCID or T-Mo US CID...? Currently running Philz CWM and Cyanogenmod 10.0...
Thanks!

AFAIU it all depends on the xxx after the 3.16. in the version of the firmware, which method is likely to work with your device.

I was able to change to supercid with the same config as you have ( 3.16.401.8 and origo cid HTC__001) so it should for you. If you'll manage to supercid just get s-off useing facepalm metod. Worked for me.
Sent from my HTC One S
if you got the xxxxxxx.9 it wont work indeed.
but on the xxxxxxxx.8 supercid/facepalm method should work, i did this myself back then.
since hboot didnt change going from .8 to .9, it might be possible to reflash the ruu to get back on .8 (as you did before i presume).
but if the ota going to .9 did change something permanent its a bust.
I believe the RUU I tried flashing was HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L...
-If I go the Facepalm route, I have to SuperCID. I can't because I am unable to change mmcblk0p4 (write-protection, I'm guessing. I did take the JB OTA from T-Mobile at one point...)
-If I go the Moonshine route, the device crashes when Moonshine tries the ADB test (reboot from bootloader). This happens using the ville_3.16.661.4 and ville_3.14.531.11 versions...
Possible solutions:
1. Downgrade hboot to an earlier version without write-protection on mmcblk0p4 so I can SuperCID -> Facepalm. I'm currently on hboot 2.15 - is this possible?
2. Flash a ROM of a firmware supported by Moonshine - anyone have that?

UPDATE: I apologize for the double post, but I was able to S-OFF using Moonshine.
What I used:
ViperROM 2.1
TWRP 2.3.3.0
Windows 7 Pro x64
Moonshine - HTC One S Telus Windows 3.16.661.4
I currently have hboot 2.15. Thanks for looking!

If you have Super CID, do not run the RUU. It will brick your phone.
If you're not sure, type the following command into your command line:

First of All Thanksss
yeahhhh its S-on
and please let me know why super cid will brick?? I thought super cid means any ruu will work..lol :silly:
and no mine is not super cid ... so I will upgrade it. :highfive:
SuperCID just means that at&t phones were able to unlock via htcdev because the at&t CID was blocked. SuperCID + s-on + jb RUU = brick. This is because a CID check that occurs halfway through the RUU update doesn't allow the RUU to finish, therefore ending up with a partially completed RUU, which means a bricked phone.

What timmaaa mentioned is basically a bug. The RUU shoudn't run halfway like that, but for some reason on JB RUUs, it does (past RUUs were fine with SuperCID).
But also, what you said above is not true. SuperCID will not allow "any" RUU to work. It only bypasses CID check. Trying to run a RUU for an older hboot will fail version check. You need s-off to run "any" RUU.
thanksssss ALL Update Successful.....

Don't matter European or Asian firmware? As far as I understood the value of CID and MID firmware should suffice. Tell me where to download the appropriate

Going back to stock after full conversion from another ROM

Hi everyone,
My A9 originally has CID TELST001 and MID 2PQ910000 (S-off and unlocked bootloader). I followed this guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/one-a9/development/s-off-convert-to-htc-usa-unlocked-1-12-t3271861) to convert it to US model (CID: BS_US001 and MID: 2PQ912000)
I stopped at step 3, just go back to stock with RUU which I downloaded from HTC website (and I did lock bootloader when running RUU while keeping CID and MID as US model). However, the red text regarding to development purpose keeps appearing when I reboot the phone. Is it related to s-off status? From what I have read so far, as long as the kernel is stock then the red message should be gone. However, in my case, restoring via stock RUU does not erase the red message
Would someone please let me know if I did something wrong with RUU process? Cheers
As long as kernel,system and recovery is all stock the message should disappear... There is no reason to relock bootloader if s-off when running an ruu. Did you revert back to telstra ruu or use the unlocked developer ruu? Possible if ran ruu for telstra and kept unlocked cid/mid,maybe cause of your issue... Not sure though... Could be wrong...

I ran unlocked/developer RUU actually, since Telstra does not release RUU for A9. I guess this is the problem. Even with official firmware, if original CID does not match the firmware, it will trigger the red message. I have no idea how to test this theory until I get ahold of TELST001 RUU (which is unfortunately impossible atm)
Change cid/mid to Developer/Unlocked and rerun Developer RUU, If you have run the RUU the firmware is converted to Developer/Unlocked...If converted you really do not need anything from Telstra on the phone...If you have CID 11111111...Change to one below...If you have twrp installed... Replace with stock recovery
MID: 2PQ912000
CID: BS_US001
