HTC One X How to Change CID flash a stock rom on branded device

S - OFF to unlock the bootloader , org says there are some common , some say different . Want to know what s the difference ? Someone unlock the bootloader first and then s - off there is also a distinguished without unlock the bootloader lgsg s - off ( with tutorial temproot first )

unlock bootloader = allow flashing via fastboot mode .
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img - > inject recovery
fastboot flash boot boot.img - > inject ato boot images like the kernel called fastboot flash system system.img - > inject system image
S - OFF or we call security off , some require custom rom for S - OFF to install a ROM . Thing we can do if S - OFF

- Free riding down the firmware , from GB to ICS and then to GB again
- Change CID to superCID Number (1111111) , CID = Customer ID Number . ID device that attaches to us . Well Bill files that are available either on xda , another mirror contains a list of CID number , if the CID on the device we have in the bill so we can file reflashing to the stock rom with the bill , but if CID our device not listed in the list of files that are on the bill the flashing then it will fail . To be able to reflashing , the CID number in the device that it has to be changed , via fastboot command . To change this , SIZE S - OFF . One generation HTC and after that use the sense 4.x , there is no s - off . Well if there is an announcement to update the OS in other countries , not necessarily the same in our country . There is the question " why not just use the existing bill on xda ? " , She replied of course not be used for reasons CID number different .

- Flashing ( without PC : via bootloader mode , where the files are located in the P - _ - IMG.zip ) , could it be a recovery , radio or the whole firmware . - _ - It depends on the devices what , some PG58img.zip , some PC10IMG.zip , some PG86IMG.zip

- Replace HBOOT , with the command dd if = / ......... hboot it can go down or up . There are certain HBOOT which if replaced then they will become unlocked bootloader devices , such as Desire Z , Desire HD which unlock not pass htdev.com - Replace splash Lcd banality by writing htc white Lcd background.

- Replace kernel of CAN through recovery or 4ext recovery control application

- When changing the ROM , no boot.img file usually in the custom file romnya . In S - OFF state usually , when we flash the boot.img adherents in contact while still S - ON if we fit the flashing boot.img NOT TAXABLE . Therefore, it must be manually entered fastboot flash boot.img via home PC for TSB

S well - off and unlock the bootloader , the same thing is

- Easy to access root

- Can install a custom ROM , only in S - OFF it all in one with the kernel , in the BL unlock different maybe For HSL same procedure with S - OFF ( first flash kernels or boot.img via fastboot , new rom ) . Rada not feeling well past ganti2 mo rom dikit2 should open PC For flash boot.img first

- Can attach different way to recovery though , that s - off via the bootloader ( without PC ) , which unlock BL via fastboot mode ( with PC )

Prerequistes:
Unlock bootloader.
Rooted
Working Adb.
Hex editor.

1. Fire up your command prompt and go to the directory that you have ADB installed to. Type "adb shell" and hit enter.

2. Type "su" and hit enter. You now have root privileges.

3. Next type "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p4" and hit enter. This will dump the partition to your sdcard.

4. Next type "exit", hit enter, type "exit", and hit enter again. This should take you back to a command prompt for your computer.

5. type "adb pull /sdcard/mmcblk0p4" and hit enter. NOTE THE SIZE OF THE FILE BEFORE THE NEXT STEP!

6. Open the file (mmcblk0p4) with your hex editor.

7. Look for offset 00000210 and you should see T-MOB005 with your IMEI number attached to it.
( MY CID WAS T-MOB005 YOUR MAT BE DIFFERENT)

8. Change T-MOB005 to HTC__001 and save the file as mmcblk0p4MOD. This will give you SuperCID as well but instead of HTC__001 you have to put 11111111.But I think supercid does not get OTA updates. So better stay with generic HTC cid.

MAKE SURE AT THIS POINT THAT THE FILE IS THE EXACT SIZE IT WAS BEFORE YOU HEX EDITED IT!

Remember change 8 numbers with 8 in your cid and do not delete the IMEI make sure you match it before going forward

9. Now go back to your command prompt and type "adb push mmcblk0p4MOD /sdcard/mmcblk0p4MOD" and hit enter.

10. Type "adb shell" and hit enter then type "su" and hit enter again. This will put you back into the android shell and give you root privileges.

11. Type "dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p4MOD of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4" and hit enter.
To test if it worked restart the phone into fastboot (type "adb reboot bootloader" and hit enter) and once the bootloader Lcd comes up type "fastboot oem readcid" and hit enter. It should read "HTC__001".
Now flash a stock recovery and stock boot. Relock your bootloader.
Run a stock rom. Just rember to unlock your boot loader again you will need to run fastboot oem get_identifier_token again submit to HTCdev and get a new file Do not use the previous one. Hope you have all the files need if not look on the other post or let me know will upload them.

How to enter Samsung Galaxy S4 Recovery Mode

Android Recovery Mode is a hidden menu of your Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone. It is a great tool that can be used to wipe data, factory reset, format system partition, install kernels, install new ROM and tons of other things that should allow you to improve your smartphone and its current OS.
The Recovery mode can be stock or custom. The Stock Recovery Mode is the first and original variant that comes packed with the smartphone after you purchase it. It works with stock and rooted phone, while it won’t work with Galaxy S4 devices that are running on custom ROMs.
A Custom Recovery mode is installed after you root the phone. Two of the most popular custom recoveries for Samsung Galaxy S4 are the ClockworkMod – CWM and the TWRP – Team Win Recovery Project ones. Both are very similar in functions and will do the exact same things. You can learn how to boot your Samsung Galaxy S4 into Recovery mode using this post.
This guide works with any variant of Samsung Galaxy S4 Snapdragon 600 variant such as AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, US Cellular, Verizon etc. Also, it works with the Exynos 5 Octa version of Galaxy S4. Booting into Recovery Mode is easy and you can do it in the same way for both stock and custom Recoveries.

Here’s how to boot your Samsung Galaxy S4 into Stock / CWM / TWRP Recovery Mode:

  • Power off your device completely.
  • Press and hold Volume Up, Home and Power buttons simultaneously.
  • Release the buttons when the phone’s Lcd flickers or the Stock / CWM / TWRP Recovery logo appears.
  • That is it, after you release buttons, you will be taken to the main Recovery Mode menu.
  • Use its settings to apply any tasks you wish in order to improve your Galaxy S4 operating system.
  • To reboot back to normal Galaxy S4 mode, you need to return to the first Recovery Lcd and select ‘reboot system’.
That’s it, booting into Recovery Mode for Samsung Galaxy S4 is easy.
Note: If your smartphone is rooted or running a custom ROM, then you should that it is possible for you to boot into Custom Recovery mode directly from your Galaxy S4 Power options menu or using an app downloaded from Google Play Store.
If you Samsung Galaxy S4 is rooted, then you can easily boot into Recovery using ROM Manager (here) or GooManager (here) applications.
Simply launch the apps on your Galaxy S4 phone and then select the ‘Reboot Recovery’ option. Wait several moments for the device to verify root access and then the Custom Recovery Mode will load successfully.
If your Samsung Galaxy S4 is running a custom ROM such as CM 10.1 or ParanoidAndroid, then you can boot into CWM / TWRP Recovery without powering off the device. Press and hold Power button until a menu is shown on your smartphone’s menu. You will need to select ‘Reboot’ and then ‘Recovery’ option. Wait for the phone to boot into custom Recovery mode.
Use the custom Recovery for ROM installation, factory resets, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, create system backups, mount partitions, adb sideload etc. The stock Recovery is much more limited but you can still apply factory reset and wipe cache. These were all the instructions that you had to go over and learn how to boot your Samsung Galaxy into Recovery Mode.
