I don't know what the error codes are but maybe you have the wrong RUU.

I have to do something before install the RUU?
PS: Sorry for my english

Is the error when you try to relock or when trying to flash ruu? If when trying to flash ruu you need to first relock bootloader and then flash ruu. If it's when you are trying to track make sure you are following the correct steps

This method is probably only for the S4. Can anyone confirm that this is the way to change the branded ROM to unbranded ROM?

[Q] Return to full stock

So, I have done a lot of research and I am hung up on one bit.
I have the stock RUU file on my PC.
I also have superCID . I am rooted with S-OFF
Think i used Revolutionary etc. Currently using ARHD 6.8.0
I want to return to Full Stock with S-ON. I looked at this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
But it doesn't say if I need to change my CID back to VODAP001 before or after (Or at all) I flash the Stock RUU. <hope that makes sense?
Could anyone help me?
I basically have the RUU. and need to know about the CID. Does it need to be changed?
Thanks

Just seen this actually
I can confirm SuperCID is successful as i just flashed a Tmous Rom (1.25.***) to my EU unbranded device to check. (added t-mobile tv and other carrier stuff to my apps list)
Does ^ this mean I can run the RUU with my SUPER CID?
Then just S-On once done??
thanks again.

Hi,
If you are returning your phone for warranty purposes,you need to return your SuperCID to normal.
This should be done after running your RUU,but before going back to s-on.
Look HERE for more information.

you can flash any ruu when you have supercid(that means S-OFF also)
this guide will help you more

Cool, well the RUU I have will need the VODAP001 *** (I think it's that, will check before I attempt lol)
So I flash the RUU then I can use this:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid ******* Replacing the *'s with the CID I need.
Once done, can then return to S-ON

also about S-ON read carefully what it is saying about bootloader
your bootloader must be LOCKED, RELOCKED or UNLOCKED otherwise don't do S-ON

Was just about to post. Successfully flashed the RUU and changed CID to VODAP001, phone boots and works fine!!!
But in bootloader it doesn't mention, locked, unlocked or relocked.
Previously to the Update, it said ***LOCKED***
Now I got just this:

if your bootloader says locked now(as you are mentioning) then you can continue with S-ON
edit:what to do for S-ON?
from the same guide it has a tutorial for it
but i think it is a simple command and then you are done

Sorry, I actually mean, before I restored the RUU it said locked. Now it doesnt mention anything.
It no longer says that, or unlocked / relocked.
So I haven't proceeded with the S-ON command.

Hi,
No.
If you ran a RUU,then,everything would have returned to stock.
S-off is not affected.
So,to get back up and running,you will need to do all these things again.

thank you

You don't need to change the CID if you're s-off. Just go to androidruu.com and download the RUU you want to run.

Yes you can. You need to know your CID and then you can perform a RUU update. For this you need to have stock recovery installed and relocked your bootloader IF you are S-ON. When S-OFF its not necessary to relock the bootloader and you easily can switch between hboot versions directly. You know your CID?

That matches your phone
BUT
What are you going to do? If you want install some actual custom rom you will need HBOOT 2.15 which is not released by your provider.
BUT
You can gain S-OFF --> switch CID --> install unbranded EU version with HBOOT 2.15 and then you'll be able to install the newer roms
The only poinz is if we can gain S-OFF with your actual firmware or better on of the two update RUUs avaiable.
May be you can google for it.
If you hust wanted to update HBOOT for some other reason --> SRY for spamming you

I will hep you, but as in every guide provided there is a chance to brick your device if something goes wrong. If you're clear about it i will help you gain S-OFF.
