[Q] Is it dangerous to flash a RUU with supercid? - HTC One S

I would like to debrnsd my device with VODAP102 CID.
I read thath flash RUU with supercid may be dangerous (hard brick). It's true? How Can I proceed?

RUU is fine. OTA is not.
HTC_One_S | S-OFF | DeviantXone_2.0 | Twisted_III

And. If I have CID VODAP102 and I debrand flashing a WWE ROM with RUU. If there is a OTA How Can I proceed?

Change the cid back to a valid one
(check cid and mid with required one), then do the ota and hope it will go trough.
Your cid is a EU Vodafone device, so probaly you are able to completely unbrand the device. Change to German unbranded HTC cid. (Some devices have a different mid and the have issues flashing ruu. You probably not because you have EU device).

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.

Downgrade / changing CID

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.

If you are s-off you can flash the RUU_Ville_U_JB without changing CID .
Otherwise lock bootloader and flash RUU.

i think he changed the cid because it must be done for s-off.
I changed cid because i have two pcs of this phone. First have android 4.0.3 and i Flash it with WWE ruu ics without any problem. Second have 4.0.4 and i cant downgrade it to 4.0.3.
Ok. Tell me if i wrong. Now i must s-off phone and Flash jb ruu? No need change cid? Actually cid 11111111 dont brick phone?

No these steps!
1. Unlock bootloader.
2. SuperCID 11111111.
3. S-OFF.
4. FLASH RUU.
DO NOT UPDATE OTA UPDATES WITH CID 11111111, THIS WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!

[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:
fastboot oem
readcid

If the phone is s-on, yes that is right.
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.....
