Hello, guys I have experience with flashing android devices but with the new devices everything is more complicated. I bought a phone but is designed for ASIA region. I live in UK, in internal memory has some applications in chinese language and I decided to download european firmware. Here the problems come. First I need to change CID which required S-OFF. This took me a lot of time because I'm with 1.57 HBOOT. Root and custom rom as well. I also changed MID. I'm not sure why because nothing happend after this changes. I still can't install Stock European ROM. Sometimes, receiving error 155 or stuck at checking header (5 %). Is my goal possible at all ?

You may have to downgrade your hboot to flash a RUU.
What did you change your cid and mid too ? your best to look at @nkk71 superguide before going any further

I succeeded, but I'm not very happy because can't update via OTA. May be because using European stock rom The installer said:
"We have determined that your phone may be running a modified version of its software. For your protection we cannot update your phone. Please revert your phone to official HTC system software to update your phone."

I tried manually from the recovery but got this error
assert failed file_getprop( /system/build.prop ro.build.fingerprint )

After so much effort I won't revert back to Asian stock rom. Do you have an idea how to skip verifying ? Or what else needs to be changed to make my phone as europen edition ?

Please post a fastboot getvar all and remove the imei and serialno. That way we can see what is on your phone to direct you in the correct direction.

did you downgrade your hboot ?
what RUU did you use .. your mainver is missing

from the error you had it looks like you trying to flash an OTA and not a Full RUU

Yes I did. From Hboot 1.57 to 1.44 in order to install RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13.3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe

Now I just need to upgrade.
