[Change CID and MID][S-ON]An interesting way to modify cid and mid on s-on devices

[kajfux]

I have an HTC U11. I wish to convert it from EVE__001 to HTC__001. I believe that this is a WWE? Do I have to the MID as well as the CID?

Hello. Could you give me the sdf1 file or clear photos of how the file should look, I lost it and can not start the phone.
Apparently in this file there is a software number, in my case is now only the CID and IMEI number, I need the data where the software number should be.

What is TW, but what about WWE?

TW is short for Taiwan on the U11+ the Taiwanese version of the phone seems to get the best updates which is why I switched my phone to that.

WWE is World Wide English on the U11+ it seems to be getting very few updates.

Changed cid and mid on HTC U11. Did a check before rebooting, all ok. However after a reboot, and a system upgrade of 345mb I now have no cid or mid according to getvar all. Simple cid getter apk gives cid as HTC__001 WWE. Any thoughts as to why fastboot get var all gives

Thanks to all for the great work in this thread.

I have an HKG CID and was going to change it to a TW CID to get more regular updates.
But I many people want to change it to the European model.
Beta_Tester666 I notice you did the opposite of what I was going to do are you getting the regular updates on the HTC__001
version that's the WWE version isn't it .

Any thoughts on which way to go.

A development phone is usually used for internal development.

Therefore it comes with S-Off ( security -off) and you’re able to convert it to any version.

Pay attention though with permanent S-Off you can modify pretty much anything leading to a non working device.

I suggest you do a lot of reading on the htc u11 forum as how to convert a htc phone to another fw. There are also good threads on htc 10 forums. You’ll be able to modify it quite easily since you’re s-off. This thread here covers a way to do it while still being s-on.

Please help. Thanks.

You need to format data in twrp.

Many thanks for your advise.

I have to basically need to use the correct twrp according to my current patch.

So i have install twrp-3.2.1-3-ocm_171201.img and it works fine.

On top of that i need to change the version in sde1 partition to match the new RUU i am going to flash, with this i am able to completely change CID and flash the Taiwan RUU.

Many thanks, guys.

Sorry I forgot to post full instructions - here they are:-

1) Download all the relevant files. You'll need:-
a) RUU from https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-u11/how-to/htc-u11-stock-rom-ruu-t3741849 (1.24.401.2 Europe)
b) Hex Editor (I used HxD from https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/
c) TWRP from https://github.com/sabpprook/android_device_htc_ocm/releases/download/3.2.1-2/twrp-3.2.1-2-ocm.img

2) Unlock your bootloader by going to https://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/

3) Boot into download mode, connect your phone via USB and run (just for reference):-
fastboot getvar cid

4) Install TWRP by running:-
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-2-ocm.img

5) Boot into TWRP recovery

6) Select Advanced -> Terminal and enter:-
dd if=/dev/block/sdf1 of=/sdcard/sdf1.img

7) On your PC run:-
adb pull /sdcard/sdf1.img

8) Open the image in HxD and locate HTC__621. Replace with HTC__001. Save the updated disk image

9) On you PC run:-
adb push sdf1.img /sdcard

10) Back in TWRP run:-
dd if=/sdcard/sdf1.img of=/dev/block/sdf1

11) Boot into download mode and verify your updated CID by running:-
fastboot getvar cid

12) Prepare an SD card with the RUU in the root of the card, renamed as 2Q4DIMG.zip.

13) Power off phone & insert SD card. Boot back into Fastboot.

14) You should be prompted to install the RUU. Use volume and power to start the process. This will take a long time.

15) Phone should then boot up in WWE mode.

16) At this point you can relock your bootloader by booting back into download mode and entering:-
fastboot oem lock
