[Q] Question about regional CID, plz help

[raja'i]

I have sensation XE which is locked to India CID: htc__38

and I wanna have an arabic rom, which i couldnt find any proper RUU for it
coz I like orginal roms

can anybody tell me if i s-off my device, install CWR, then change the CID to the arabic CID which is HTC__J15

does anything happen to my existing rom which is "htc__38"?
would the mobile boot after I reboot it?
and will i have the official arabic update if i checked for them through the settings??
"there is already an OTA for devices coming originally with this CID"
and what will happen to the S-off and CWR if any official rom where installed

thanks a lot in advance
any help is appreciated

i dont like custom roms
i want official arabic rom, which i cant find on the internet

so what im trying to do is to get the official arabic one through htc update
"i want my device to be recognized as original arabic one so it can get the update"

you can S-Off your sensation and then set CID to what you like.
there is a really nice walk-through in the development section for this.

although you might not get the update since your ROM is India version!!

Thanx a lot for replying
I wanna try my luck, to see if I'm going to get the update

So is it safe to change the CID without changing the rom and keep it like that?

You will have to change the Rom, cause since it is stock , It's region locked (requires that cid)
What you should do is: s off , use writecid to change the cid to your desired( Arab u said?) and then flash the Arab ruu to get it all working

** tip: if you can't find the proper ruu, just ask someone with the same cid his stock nandroid backup
