[NOOBS Guide] HTC ONE SUPERCID method via fastboot(No script or editing required)

this worked perfectly! gave it 5 stars. Thanks for the simple guide. Guess I was all concerned about this for nothing.

I can't get my CID back to CWS_001. Any help? I would like to revert back since there is no benefit for me to have SuperCID.

Directory Does Not Exist

Many thanks for the noob guide. All goes will can read the original CID and can see the device in the command prompt. However when writing new CID it reads, "Failure, no directory exits..."

Any suggestions welcome. Thanks

College

So I'm trying to write my factory CID back and I entered the command exactly as directed, however CMD says "invalid CID". It's the exact same cid I pulled from the Hex writer back when i used the SuperCID scripter. So i don't get it.....


Edit...I JUST saw the comment made above about my problem. Sheesh the one time i don't read everything....

Just wanted to make sure this would be safe to do on my AT&T HTC One (currently have S-Off via revone, unlocked bootloader, running Android Revolution HD 11.0)
Thank you for any help

WRITE SUPER CID-
(allows you to flash ANY ROM to the device regardless of the carrier. Just click RUU.EXE)

ONLY download ADB tools if you do not already have it!

1. Download adb tools here: download for WINDOWS or download for LINUX or from the attachments below
2. On your pc click on your local disk C: Drive (or D: drive for some) (WINDOWS users: Start > My computer > Local Disk (C)
3. Create a new folder called "adb" and extract the files from adb.zip into it. Make sure it doesn't create another folder in the adb folder when extracting

4. open command prompt (or terminal for linux) and type "cd" "followed by the path to your adb folder" (windows users can type "cd C:\adb")
5. Ensure your phone is switched on (regular home screen) and connect it by USB in charging mode (Ensure usb debugging is on settings)
6. enter the command "adb devices". This is to confirm your phone is connected. (It should come back with list of devices attached and your serial number)
7. enter the command "adb reboot-bootloader". (nothing further required device WILL reboot in bootloader)

IF it doesn't you can Manually put the phone in the bootloader/hboot mode
Navigate to fastboot by pressing volume down and pressing power button to select (power off > vol down + power on)
It will take you to the fastboot bootloader screen on your phone
Connect your phone via USB
Your Screen should now read fastboot USB

8. Enter the command "fastboot oem readcid". Make a note of your original CID.
9.enter the command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111"
10. enter the command "fastboot read cid" [it should confirm your CID is 11111111]
11. Press the volume down button twice on your phone and navigate to reboot bootloader, then hit power button to reboot the bootloader.
12. Bootloader will also say "CID-11111111" now to confirm You can now flash any ROM you like.

TO REVERT BACK TO ORIGINAL CID

i wrote on step 8 make a note of your original CID

follow all the steps above and then in place of step 9 enter the command "fastboot write cid YOURCID" where YOURCID is the CID you made a note of

so for me this would be "fastboot writecid O2___001"

Can this be used to flash firmware of other CID?

great tut,easy to follow

Out of curiosity, what's the difference between this and the other guide with the text file? That one makes you do the same steps. I never really understood why we had to edit the text file if we're going to write in the commands to change CID, MID anyways. Any explanation? Is it that the text file method allows OTAs and this one doesn't?

Again, I've already used the text file method and successfully received OTA 4.2.2 through it, but I was just curious.

after changing my CID to 1111111, its giving me problems with text messaging. everything else is working (calls &data) but for sending out SMS, it fails then the it sends the 2nd time. anyone know anything about this?

I have supercid and s_off ,relock bootloader .Ian sending sms very well!!!

This doesnt properly change your CID, use the guide lower down on this page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2315247&page=4 to properly change your CID.

The one that shows in hboot is correct. I'm also supercid and cid getter shows CWS_001.

HELP

Ran into some odd behavior when trying to do SuperCID. Everything was going fine until I asked the device to confirm my CID. Here is the log from adb.

As you can see, I followed the directions:

C:\adb>adb devices
List of devices attached
HT35JW900480 device

C:\adb>adb reboot-bootloader

C:\adb>fastboot oem readcid
... INFOcid: BS_US001
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.011s

C:\adb>fastboot oem writecid 11111111
... INFOStart Verify: 0
OKAY [ 0.037s]
finished. total time: 0.037s

Then when I enter "fastboot read cid" I get what you see below. So I opted instead to re-enter fastboot oem writecid BS_US001 so I would be back to what I was. I can confirm I am. My fear was if I didn't it would brick the phone.

C:\adb>fastboot read cid
usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>

commands:
update <filename> reflash device from update.zip
flashall flash boot + recovery + system
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition
erase <partition> erase a flash partition
getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable
boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel
flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it
devices list all connected devices
reboot reboot device normally
reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader

options:
-w erase userdata and cache
-s <serial number> specify device serial number
-p <product> specify product name
-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline
-i <vendor id> specify a custom USB vendor id
-b <base_addr> specify a custom kernel base address
-n <page size> specify the nand page size. default:
2048

So why did I get all these commands after I asked it to confirm the newly written CID?

Because you entered a wrong command.

Why didn't you just reboot bootloader after changing the CID? I think you have to "refresh"the bootloader to see the change. Another way ids to change CID then run:

fastboot getvar all

Ok, then so after I enter "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" I should either reboot or use "adb reboot-bootloader"? In the OP of this guide it doesn't mention rebooting the device before "fastboot read cid" to confirm your CID is now 11111111 so that is why I didn't reboot my H1.

Just making sure I don't wreck my H1.

So I went back and did the instructions again as outlined in the OP except one change I moved step 11 up to step 9a and then reconfirmed what I already saw which was CID 11111111 by doing the adb command.

4. open command prompt (or terminal for linux) and type "cd" "followed by the path to your adb folder" (windows users can type "cd C:\adb")
5. Ensure your phone is switched on (regular home screen) and connect it by USB in charging mode (Ensure usb debugging is on settings)
6. enter the command "adb devices". This is to confirm your phone is connected. (It should come back with list of devices attached and your serial number)
7. enter the command "adb reboot-bootloader". (nothing further required device WILL reboot in bootloader)

IF it doesn't you can Manually put the phone in the bootloader/hboot mode
Navigate to fastboot by pressing volume down and pressing power button to select (power off > vol down + power on)
It will take you to the fastboot bootloader screen on your phone
Connect your phone via USB
Your Screen should now read fastboot USB

8. Enter the command "fastboot oem readcid". Make a note of your original CID.
9.enter the command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111"
9a Press the volume down button twice on your phone and navigate to reboot bootloader, then hit power button to reboot the bootloader.
10. enter the command "fastboot read cid" [it should confirm your CID is 11111111]
12. Bootloader will also say "CID-11111111" now to confirm You can now flash any ROM you like.

Is stock T-Mobile Germany cid T-MOB101 ?
