Noob Question = Whats Super CID

I successfully installed CWM and got S-OFF while using the guide posted in the Android section.
Should I just flash a ROM now thats already rooted? Do I need Super CID? Is that only useful if you want to go back to stock?
edit:
I just read that it allows me to install a ROM from any carrier, not just T-Mobile. Do most of the ROMS require Super CID?

Granting Super CID will allow you to install all original HTC RUU ROMs, not just those intended for your local model. It basically sets your internal HTC model number that RUUs look for to 11111111, which allows you to install any of them.
It is not required for any of the customised ROMs available here, it is only useful if, for example, I wanted to flash the WWE HTC ROM on my Telstra Sensation.
Hope this helps!

Stock Kernel

Hi there.
My Ds is unlocked with htcdev and has s-on...
I did a backup of my stockrom before I installed custom Roms... But: if I want get back to stock I need the original kernel for Ds... So I can flash it via fastboot, because of s-on...
Is there a way to get it anywhere?
Thanks

What you need is an RUU. It really would help if you would take the pains of searching the forum for similar requests before starting nearly identical threads. Helps reduce clutter as well as overhead on the servers.
But here's a link to set you in the right direction: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1547924

i'm not really sure if you backed up your stock rom i supposed you backed up the stock kernel but how ever as i'm not to sure i would suggest flashing a stock RUU then restoring your rom

Hmm...sorry, I really used to search for it but there were thousands of crapresults... Or I am just too silly
So stock ruu flash?
Okay thanks
I see I better get s-off... Really annoying me to separate flash boot...

Take a look at the link I posted. More important is looking through the sticky threads at the top of forum (look through the DEVELOPMENT section)

hmm... i ask myself: why i need an ruu, when i got a backup of my original system?
I tried to restore it and it works... but because of s-on, 4ext doesnt flash the original boot.img "i think"... becouse it doesnt do that with custom roms too....
am i wrong?

ahm... okay I think I've found something...
this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236890
includes kernel for hboot 2....
would it work if I flash it and run the recovery of my original system?
ain't it dangerous to just try it out?

THIS ONE is newer, faster and better on battery. Also includes rooting tools (to be flashed from recovery).
One malybru quoted is also good, but is GB, one i linked is ICS.
P.S. I'm using it at the moment and am very happy with it (rooted)

Hi,
All I know is that it is very close to stock.
I have never tried it myself.
It will not hurt to try it for yourself.
You can of course flash an RUU of your region and carrier.
This will return your entire phone(including recovery) back to stock.
It will leave you s-0ff.

No, if you still want s-off and root you are better off flashing one of the stock roms.
With ruu you will lose root, custom recovery and other goodies.
BTW, if you have a look under our avatars you will see why we cannot be on T-Mobile US.

Look for shipped roms in development forum. Find one for T-Mobile us, run from windows with phone connected via USB.

RUU stands for ROM Update Utility. It is a utility you run on your computer to flash your device via USB.

If you want stock ICS go with ARHD and never look back. If you want GB stock rooted flash the RUU from that stock builds thread and follow the guide to root.
I'm on the US Sensation.

Stock Rogers Kernel?

I'm trying to get the stock Rogers kernel to reflash. I have the stock Rogers Rom, would it be in there? If so what image file is it?
http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/8264/rogersrom.png
Thanks.

Why are you just flashing the kernel? As far as i understand you have to flash the entire RUU.

You will to fast boot flash it.
You should ask mods to move the thread to Q/A Sub Forum since this is a question and directly related to development.
Hope that helps.

If he is HTC Deve unlocked then he does not need to flash the enitre RUU.
He can fastboot flash it or he can PJxxIMG.ZIP flash it.

[Q] How to return to stock HTC rom ???

My have rooted and unlocked by bootleader...S-off....currently running Xylon (Aokp) rom and unfortunately deleted the backup of my stock rom....how do i return to stock htc rom ???

If you googled your thread title many answers would have come up, it's XDA rules to search before posting. You can either flash a stock ROM from the development section, or you can RUU back to stock.

I know...but was unable to find any exact step by step process for my One X at&t. Would you please suggest me a rom with sense features (better if sense 5) for One X at&t.
also if i use the Ruu to go back to stock will it again lock the sim carrier.

There are several Sense 5 ROMs available on our development section now. I can't suggest which one to use because asking for a "best" ROM is against the rules so therefore I can't answer. They're all very similar, have a look and see which one you think you'll like.
I'm pretty sure that your carrier unlock will survive the RUU process because it's stored on a lower level.

hi,
does the Alex V 2.1 kernel work on roms like ViperX 4.0, ARHD 31.2? I tried but there was no phone signal. When i use the boot image within the rom its perfectly fine.
btw, can u give me a link to latest stock kernel? i found a few topics with "stock kernels" but they give a few ones so i didnt know which was the stock.

It sounds like you have the One X? This is the One XL forum.
