[Q] Sensation - Super CID - adb shell shows no change

[CptPanic]

I Have a HTC Sensation which I super cid and today I was using adb shell to find my sim unlock code using the following

adb shell

strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6

and under my IMEI I can see the orignal CID which is a Vodafone UK ID "VODAP001"

When using "fastboot getvar cid" it returns 11111111

So my question is, have I successfully super cid and if so why has it not be updated in mmcblk0p6

You can also obtain CID from fastboot mode:

- fastboot getvar cidnum
- fastboot oem boot
(bootloader) Device CID is super CID
(bootloader) CID is super CID
(bootloader) Backup CID is empty
(bootloader) setting->cid::11111111

- adb shell cat /proc/cmdline

Not sure which one is the most accurate one, maybe majority wins?

Hi,

I can half help you here.
I know that if you super cid, you will get the 8 ones (11111111)
So that bit is good.

I have no idea about the mmc thing.

Seeing that I was getting the correct response using getvar, I continued to flash a couple of different firmwares and ROMs without an issue. Would just be intersting to know if anyone else with super cid gets the same results.

Cheers chaps

I think this is related to this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21233579.

Anyhow, I'd say fastboot is correct.
