[Q] RUU question (Rogers)?

i unlocked bootloader, changed CID to generic.. and directly flashed CLean rom.. it installed just fine.. then why should we re-lock it? since CID is generic now.. and is this the ruu 1.88.707.2 CL64928 release keys(built number)?
why should i downgrade to 1.85 if i am on 1.88 .. rogers model by the way

There is no need to re-lock it. I did the same thing you did and have left it unlocked.
Its easier to leave it unlock. The only reason I know of to relock it is if you need to use an ruu and go back to "stock".

[Q] How to Debrand M4

Hi All
I have a totally stock M4 4.2.2 phone from Voda UK
(it has the boot logo from Voda along with pre-loaded network apps)
I just want to make it a stock European version...(UK ideally) with no network logos or apps
End wish is a stock 4.4.4 with root (ideally towelroot or similar) so if I want to...I can unroot and leave untouched/stock
As stated...no htcdev done or anything with unlocking bootloader
Advice please?

I'm afraid that once you go root ( unless you only use temproot ) you can't go back to absolute stock.
To "transform" it to a European version you'll have to do Super CID, which requires unlocked bootloader & s-off.

Well.. What about..
S-Off....
SuperCiD
flash with stock European rom
Set CID back to the European one...(so it doesn't brick)
Re-lock the bootloader
S-On
That way... I have a stock European Rom 4.4.4 on a stock One Mini
?

Not entirely.
If I'm not mistaken ( I'm not a phone freak, just a computer hardware engineer & mediocre software programmer ) you can't re-lock the bootloader like stock.
It displays "Re-Locked" once locked again with fastboot or another tool.
You'll have a stock image, but you won't have the applications that are preloaded in the data partition which gets erased during the Bootloader unlocking process, and that blocks you from flashing any newer OTA updates via the classic method ( like a totally stock phone )

Unlock bootloader and try to install another RUU

I will unlock my bootloader on HTCDev, then try to flash the USA unloack RUU will this work?

What phone do you have? And is it USA or Global? If you have Global than don't flash USA version RUU. Your phone will be brick.

You need to be s-off (change cid and mid)
cheers

I have s-off, now what? ROM suggestions? Upgrade firmware?

So I have s-off now but I'm not sure what to do about the firmware. It's running 1.27.502.5 but I don't know how to upgrade the firmare. The roms I see seem to require it. Is there a rom anyone recomends for my phone as is? Or upgrade?

Is your phone international or US?
If it IS us and not unlocked, see this thread to upgrade to firmware 1.57: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...nvert-to-htc-usa-unlocked-1-12-t3271861/page8
Then, you can flash caynogenmod, or mokee ROM.
You can also use a tutorial I made to flash a new splash screen to match your custom boot animation:

it is US but I have unlocked the bootloader to root. Or are you talking about sim unlocked? Sorry, I haven't rooted a phone since the m7 years ago.

Did you buy it from a carrier or from HTC.com as unlocked? If it can pre-sim unlocked, you can flash the most recent firmware (as ruu). Only then will you be able to run CyanogenMod or mokee (ROM)

I got it from ATT so I unlocked the bootloader myself. I used the sunshine app for S-off.

You will need to use the first link I posted to come very to the USA unlocked model. Then you can upgrade firmware to 1.57

change CID?

are we able to change the cid yet so we can flash the unlocked RUU? or do we need to be s-off?

You indeed need to be S-Off to change CID. Currently, SunShine doesn't support U11.

Yeah we are all waiting for S-OFF so we can start messing with things like this... hopefully not too long now!

Yes, urgent for me to unbrand my SFR ROM ...

Done thanks to Sunshine S-Off.... Perfect!

I'm on the US Unlocked now, waiting for 1.28 ota...

Hi,
I think if I follow your thread indicate: I will change my France Orange Branded CID: ORANG219
For install a Stock Rom: I've read than it must change CID to Europe/France at: HTC__034 ???
