Can't run RUU on Sensation - "Customer ID Error"

Hi all - yet more problems, so few answers..
I was on ARHD but it sucked for me. So I wanted to revert to stock. But the RUU wouldn't run, so on another member's advice, I flashed InsertCoin and have just tried to run the RUU again.
And it ran, but then stopped saying it couldn't update and I've got a "Customer ID Error". I've no idea what this means or what I can do.
Please? Anyone?

Appreciate to post the picture when your phone at Hboot or Fastboot state (?) is phone s-off and what you are doing to phone before running RUU.

Is your unit Super CID? You need this to flash RUU

I don't know - can you tell me how to find out? Honestly, I've really had enough of how complicated this has to get - I just want to restore root and sell the thing. Any help would be much, much appreciated.

Are you using the correct RUU for your device, eg. Asian RUU for Asian device etc?
I doubt that your device is on SuperCID as having that will negate the Customer ID errors

Reboot into the Bootloader and then select Fastboot-USB. Run the RUU again and it will work with no issues.

It's not complicated, just that you need to do the things in order.
If you want to check the CID, look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
Note though that you'll need ADB installed and working.
Step 4. is about the CID, there are steps to check it and write a different one.
9. enter the command "fastboot reboot-bootloader (Wait for it to reboot the bootloader)
10. enter the command "fastboot getvar cid" [it should confirm your CID is 11111111]

[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.

I'm on hboot 1.13... but what is the RUU? It's like making the phone factory default correct? Where I can find it? Sorry for the noob questions...:laugh:

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.

Hey,
sorry, my girlfriend came here, had no time.
And yes, get into bootloader > fastboot, type "fastboot getvar cid"

The result is VODAP304

Is it true that if I run the RUU I have to root and unlock all over again my phone?

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.

AKToronto

Thanks anyway, but I've upgraded to hboot 1.14 and the navigation keeps crashing.... I thing it's a bug from CM10...

Hi you, why you not change CID to supper CID 1111111?, you can flash any RUU file if you want.

Reboot phone into fastboot mode, open cmd window on your computer linking to the adb path.
fastboot oem writecid 11111111. Being SuperCID you can flash whatever RUU, but not receive OTA updates.

and then when i boot again into fastboot usb and type fastboot getvar cid it says HTC__K18 like the old one.
what do i have to do?

There is a link to Super CID instructions in the dev forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671643
Also, there is no s-off yet for HTC One S.
Third, what carrier do you have? I did not recognize your CID. If there is a RUU that you think exists that Football has not posted in his thread, than I suggest PM ing him. Thats how I was able to get the three Bell Mobility RUUs onto FileFactory. But I am curious about your carrier as it may already be in his list.

[Q] Phone stuck in a boot loop, plus other problems

My phone, HTC Sensation XE, is S-ON, on default ROM, and has HBOOT 1.29.000. Needless to say, my phone is not rooted.
The phone is on a boot loop ever since I last took off the battery and placed it back. I sometimes get a message that my Android system is getting upgraded, terminating with an error "System UI has stopped working" before the phone restarts itself again.
I don't know if this is a hardware issue or software.
How do I get my phone to a normal state? I don't mind rooting the phone if I need to for the purpose of installing default/custom ROM. But I don't know if this would be possible because I only have access to boot screen at present.
Please suggest me suitable solutions. Thank you

I looked into the thread you suggested. For my region and CID, I was not able to get the RUU from the thread. What I could get was this - an OTA zip file that matches my software version exactly (3.33.720.106) from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764025
How do I proceed further with this zip file, since I don't have an executable RUU file?
I am hoping you can be of help -)
(The zip file contains -- META-INF, patch, system, firmware.zip, fotaBoot, version.txt)

@ganeshp's one click root doesn't require htc dev unlock (meaning no prequisite permanent root; the guide has steps for temproot).
You just need one boot.
Do this: get the boot.img of your current (stock rom) and type fastboot boot boot.img.

I know its a long shot, but you should try doing a factory-reset from the bootloader, just in case it works.
Otherwise run an RUU from the bootloader.

firstly Itsakash he can't S-OFF because the device must be booted to the OS
secondly Far_SighT the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
thirdly as raz0rf1sh suggested factory reset is a good idea and
fourthly jiteshgawali can you post your bootloader details?

It really is great to see your input guys.
@Far_SighT: I have tried doing the temp_root method, but it doesn't work for me. I could successfully run temp_root.bat just once (luckily, even in boot loop), but next when I tried doing the Juopunutbear SOFF it missed detecting my phone (again, because of the bootloop)
I don''t know where I can get a boot.img file from; for what it's worth, I could only get an OTA zip file for my region/CID from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764025
@raz0rf1sh: I have done factory reset several times from bootloader, doesn't help friend. I don't have an RUU for my region/CID, all I have is an OTA zip file for my phone from the link I have specified right above this. Can't seem to get an RUU for firmware base 3.33, and CID HTC__038.

Yes I haven't seen Indian version ruu until now ..so ruu is out of question AFAIK
Now the factory reset over boot loader should help if you have software problems but as per your replies it didn't work it seems
Tried HTC Dev unlock ? Even if the motherboard is replaced its worth a try
If htcdev unlock failed
Then try to go to recovery first ..from boot loader and if you went to recovery properly let me know
The other solution I propose is try to do change the cid ..even on locked bootloader sometimes it works
Try these commands one by one
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
Then
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then check cid using this command
fastboot getvar cid
If cid changed that's a good sign

I said fastboot boot boot.im instead of fastboot flash boot booti.img as the previous one boots the rom with with the new image but doesn't attempt to write that to the boot partition. Hence it might get him a much needed boot to s-off.

Thanks for responding Ganesh. HTC Dev Unlock never worked for me post change of motherboard, but thanks for the suggestion.
I am able to browse the recovery option from bootloader properly.
And it gives me a little satisfaction to let you know that I was able to change the CID to HTC__001 following your steps. Can you suggest what I should be doing next?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442946
... and being new to android modding, do not want to brick it by doing something wrong.
I gather i need to set up superCID and then set to s-off - would anyone be able to point me in the right direction on how to do these correctly for a Telstra phone?
My phone is rooted with CWM, from whati gather (it says "ClockworkMod recovery" in recovery mode).
Thanks

You might already have SuperCID, you can use a fastboot command to check. The command is:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
If it comes back as anything other than 11111111 you can use this method to get SuperCID.
Once you have SuperCID you can use this method to get s-off.

Thanks, i will take a closer look soon. Is it true that for Telstra phones the CID needs to be 22222222, or is 11111111 okay as well?

The 22222222 CID only applies to at&t phones trying to unlock their bootloader via htcdev, this is because at&t stock CID (cws__001) plus 11111111 CID have been blocked at htcdev. For your purposes 11111111 will be fine.

Thanks for the info - i know i need to superCID as i checked last night and CID was TELST001 (from memory). Will use 11111111.

No problems, did you use the fastboot command the check your CID? I only ask because there are apps available which claim to display your CID but they show the original CID, not the current one.

I tried so many things last night i couldn't tell you exactly what i did, haha! Will try your way and see what it says.
A quick question - in regard to the facepalm link, it says "Download patcher and unzip it in your working directory" - can this be any folder on my phone (eg: Downloads)? I'm also guessing the other file (OneX.zip) goes in the same directory?

No you place the extracted patcher files and the PJ8312000-OneX.zip into your fastboot folder on your pc.
You need to have adb/fastboot and HTC drivers installed on your pc to do the s-off process.

You should keep better track of things you are doing or you will end like NASA on Apollo 1 and not knowing what went wrong.
To repair something you need to know what you did to break it.

Big thanks timmaaa, have upgraded successfully!
twistedddx, you're not wrong - i should have kept an eye on what i was doing. Luckily for me, all went well!
Thanks again.

Glad to see you got it all sorted mate.

Hi guys, since updating Android, i seem to find my service connection (no service) is being lost fairly easily - is there something i need to do in regard to this, or is it just me?!
Cheers

Which ROM are you on?

the one from the following link:

You either need to update your firmware to 2.15 or just flash the Beastmode kernel.

Thanks, when you talk about beastmode, is the following link what you are referring to?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797251
Also, with firmware 2.15 - i would actually like to keep it as stock as possible, so perhaps the firmware upgrade would be the better option? I have found a link that looks like it goes to the correct download:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45646878 - (see last post)
Would i be right in saying the instructions for updating the kernel would be the same as at the following link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423735 - (OPTIONAL: Installing the Firmware)
Thanks again for your help.

The first link is incorrect, you can find the Beastmode kernel in our development section. The kernel you just install in recovery.
The last link you quoted is where you'll find the 2.15 firmware, and the install instructions see in the first post on that thread (it's a manual install using fastboot).

Thanks - looks easy enough. Can i ask what why i would install Beastmode instead of the firmware upgrade? From what i gather, it is to overclock the CPU?

You can leave the Beastmode settings stock, it's just an easier and safer fix rather than upgrading firmware. You can OC if you wish to of course. There's always a small risk involved with anything that touches your hboot.

Thanks, maybe i will install beastmode instead then if it will help fix my connection issues. Sorry, but would you be able to point in the direction of where it is in the development section, i cannot seem to find it.
I promise if this works you wont have to hear my noob questions anymore!!
