[Q] my sensation can't find rom updates

i'm in o2 uk
my current rom is 2.3.3 version 1.34.2061
when i tried check for updates just got information that phone is up to date.
can someone confirm what is actually highest (original stock) rom version?
few months ago i tried flash custom rom, but i was not happy with them and i did rollback to original. maybe i didn't everything correct and this is a reason of lack updates

Did you super cid? I believe doing so would keep carrier updates from being sent to your device.

ok, thanks pal
maybe you know, where can i find newest official htc rom?
i'll try supercid and htc rom after that

Sorry... I think you misunderstood me. I was asking if you were already super cid'ed. Because if you were, that would explain why you were not receiving system updates from your carrier.
Setting your CID to super CID will not help you in this matter.

Ok, now undersdand.
I'm not sure did i replace cid or not.
How to check my current cid?
And finally how to rollback original cid. I'm in o2 uk

Here is how I know to check the CID on your device (and a lot of other details):
Code:
adb shell cat /proc/cmdline
That should result in a lot of text on your terminal. You want to find the value that follows: "androidboot.cid="
If you are super CID, it will be a bunch of ones (like 1111111) and nothing else.
I'll get back to you on the thread for a list of valid CIDs.

Thanks a lot.

Here is the thread that provides the most help for what you're trying to accomplish (at least from what I assume).
In it there is a mention of another thread where CIDs are being collected.
hth...

i can confirm that i had cid 1111111 in my phone.
i changed it first time for valid o2 cid but still not got any updates, then replaced for htc cid but still any updates got.
btw i'm sure, htc has released 2.3.4 for my device, and i'm stuck by 2.3.3

ok, last question
where can i find not branded, latest original htc rom?

I think this is the best there is for finding stock ROMs.
There is a FileFactory link in the 1st post (or right here) for a grip of RUU files. Those will contain the original distributions from the various carriers.
I wish I was able to point you to the correct one, but I really have no idea.
Happy New Year!

New official update for HTC Chacha found 1.57.720.3

Hello Everyone,
I just received a notification that a new software update is available for my HTC Chacha here in India: 1.57.720.3
I am currently on 1.57.720.1 and have unlocked and rooted the device (no custom rom installed)
I have a question:
If I update to this version, will I have to root my phone again? If not, then what is the benefit to update to this version??
Should I update?? I don`t want to lose my root ability.

Don't update, you will have to re root. If I were you I would get cm7 or cm9 they run very well and are much better than the stock ROM

Tried what?
Those listed there on htcdev are NOT ROMs. Those are kernels. You download those and then get the android source code from google, then build android for yourself using those kernels. Which should be for ICS but it has been discussed in the dev section and they seem to be for GB.
Further more, I have compared the 4.0 India and the 2.3 India and only 3 GPIO files have been modified. So it's GB kernel with 4 more lines of code.

So Alex C.
1. this is not ICS?
2. Will i get it stable on my chacha!!

[Q] problem with the new update

I have a htc one m8 verzion, i have root on my device,my device is from USA and in my country there is no way I import cdma handset.
Now that I know out an update to the device and I really want the update I can not update.
There are some way apart from making room update that I do not really understand these things? Is it because the cone is not letting me update over the air.?
(Im not from america).
Thank's for the helping...

I would suggest following the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159 to update your firmware then flashing a 4.4.3 ROM or if you want the full, stock, update, follow these instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ent/ruu-m8vzw-4-4-3-s-off-onlynewest-t2873144
you should be S-off first, of course

The update is being sent over the verizon phone networks wireless system.
Since you are not in a country that has verizon wireless you do not have access to the update direct from the phone issuer and will have to use alternative means.
You can try "weaksuace / Firewater combo" but this method seems to only work with the first batch of M8 sold by verizon.
You can try "Sunshine" which is a paid app that will unlock and S-off your phone, success rate to my knowledge is 100%
After successfully completing one of the above you will need to comeback and read the M8 Dev section thread for installing the new firmware, then read the section for installing Stock Rooted 4.4.3 rom or whatever 4.4.3 based rom you like.
Just remember all 4.4.3 based roms require the updated firmware first.
Weaksauce / Firewater combo and Sunshine alternatives were developed by the same dev, you find his directions, discussions and links to his tools and app here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699091

[Q] Europe stock RUU for HTC M8Sw (China Unicom)

Hi, I would like to replace the stock RUU on my HTC one M8Sw by a WWE stock RUU.
Custom ROM are not suitable as I need to have access to OTA and to use Worx home (for work emails)
My phone has currently:
- Bootloader unlocked
- TWRP
- Rooted
- S-off
I understand that I'd have to change the CID to match the new rom.
Is there such rom available? if so, is there a listing somewhere?

Would the above rom be suitable?
For info, I was able to install European rom on my previous HTC One M7 802W.
Thanks

Yes, I've came across your post but what would be the advantage over the UniCom ROM?
Have they NOT got all the bloatware in the ROM or what?
I am using the M8 DualSIM port but one of the reasons - apart form being dual SIM - I've upgraded from M7 is the camera and with the ported ROM the original camera app does not work with high resolution and Google Camera has somewhat reduced usability.
Also - according to your post - the India version seems to be an M8sS version instead M8sW? Has that any affect?
Thanks for your help

Indian rom is WWE Asia with dual Sim. This rom have multi Sim menu. Currently we don't have RUU yet for India rom so only by using TWRP Backup we can install Asia WWE rom with dual Sim menu on Unicom phone. Free from bloatware and you got great camera apps.
Since this only TWRP Backup, nothing change on firmware mean that phone firmware use your original Unicom.
If any OTA coming to be safe don't install it. Better ask other user to make another clean TWRP Backup and flash again on your phone.
This will reduce hard brick due to incompatibility between Unicom firmware and India firmware.

[Q] HELP E8 M8Sn back to 100% Stock

Hi guys,
I need your help!
I purchased this device with already installed TWRP and superSU.
In attached image you can see the actual situation:
This is my first Android device and therefore are not very skilled.
What is the best (and easiest) to restore it as it was originally?
Looking in the forum I found WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit, may be useful in my case?

My os is
1.05.401.1
Im m8sx user
Yours is 1.06.401.1

Try to flash recovery stock via fastboot, and unroot your device from supersu app. Bootloader lock/unlock is indifferent for ota update. You will need a stock rom with stock recovery and unroot device..
