is it possible to get indian ruu on at&t htc one by changing CID/MID

Hi Everyone,

I have HTC M8 from AT&T and using it in India. First off all I searched my doubts a lot and didnt find the satisfactory answer so posting this here :(

My Question is If i change the CID & MID both to match the Indian version M8 and install official RUU for indian HTC One to my phone then:

1) Will change the Radio versions to support all indian 2g/3g/4g frequencies ?

2) Will get OTA updates whenever available because till now if i try to do OTA update I got (System Varient Dedcated) Error as i know its because of the MID mismatch.

As I know in India the HTC have 2.5 Ghz Processor and mine have 2.2 Ghz. But as far as i know the radio band and hardware supports all same and is limited to the regional software side RUUs, please if anyone know about that let me know.. :confused:

My phone info is:

Hi there, guys.

I am from Russia, and i have a similar issue with my HTC One m7 GPE. I suppose, currently, there are no ways to resolve this?

I just got my phone unlocked and S-Off. Had the same bootloader issue. I used the latest release of Kingroot. It failed the first time and I kept trying until root was successful! Then I ran Sunshine and passed all the compatibility checks. Paid the $25 and now my phone is unlocked and S-Offed. BTW I am on gpe 5.1.

the "tell htc" is because of S-Off, but most (but not all) repair center's don't care about s-off

as u see my version is 1.29.707.4 ... i am not finding the nand back up.... but even if i get... do u think by flashing that and s-off ing the device will keep the 'htc tell" thing out?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
:confused: sorry didnt understand your question.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
You get this because you are s-off. However being s-off is not voiding your warranty since a lot of phones leave the factory in s-off state. Mine is s-off as well and I didn't have a problem when I sent it to the repair center
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ganucci:
thats what my question was initially... i tried a lot of options and veverything just failed take that thing "tell HTC" out... but then i am been told "tell htc" was cause of s-off .... may be if i s-on my device it will go and i can give it to my service centre...

but qquestion now is, whats the command to s-on my divice using revone. and any points i should note before doing it so that my phone wont brick ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ganucci:
question is how to s-on my device using revone ?? any guides ?? or whats the procedure..... what i have thought now is, first remove the tampered and lock my device in bootloader and then s-on ... and then flash RUU ... so guys tell me if i am doing it the right way?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
you can't remove it without going s-on, but according to HTC, s-off does not void warranty: https://twitter.com/htc/status/377422743626842112
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ganucci:
so u mean to say if the "tell htc" is there... the warranty wont be void?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
technically, it shouldn't, some phones, ship s-off straight from the factory, and there's no real way of proving it didnt. (unless you kept nandroids or other stuff on your phone), and i doubt they will look for that, cause they have to SU for that.

a few (only a couple) posts i've seen around, said that the repair center said S-Off is not under warranty, but that's just because they were taking the easy way out of a free repair.

IMHO

PS: the "Tell HTC" is about error reporting, when your phone crashes, not during normal use

Boot into bootloader mode ( power + volume down ). Once in bootloader you can flash stock recovery then try to apply the ota. If that fails you might have to flash the stock ruu.

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] DAz999:
I got the screen from here, http://www.runpda.com/ , it cost £93.00

including shipping. But I got stung by UK Customs for £38.00 Tax, rip-off, so it cost me £131.00 in total. I've bought from this part of the world before and not been charged by taxman, its just the luck of the draw.

Someone suggested this place in the UK, but I had already ordered, if anybody tries this one, post costs etc for everyone. Mobile Repair Centre in London. 177a North end road 0207 610 3103.

I used this manual to open case, all the instructions are ok,

ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Himalaya/Himalaya-Service-Manual/

they only bit that is confusing is the opening of the black plastic cover, basically follow manuals instructions to open cover by pen holder side, then slid a thin piece of plastic in the gap and slid along (I made a plastic tool from cutting a thickish plastic bottle). In the picture it looks like you place it in the SD slot, this is not the case, just slid along the edge of the gap you have created by the pen holder. :lol:
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] DAz999:
Hi again,

Forgot to mention, that the internally the screen just pushs onto a connector on the motherboard (just pull gently upwards to remove). I would disconnect it and reconnect it, and put your Alpine back together, just to see whether it was loose or not) Please ensure you use the write screw drivers as the screws are very small and you don't want to round them off), you need a mini philips screwdriver and a T6 size Torc screwdriver.

I'm not sure where you bought it from but if it is retail, then I would exchange or get your money back, if like me you bought privately then I hope my info helps you. :D

I had that issue with my old nexus and another phone im not going to mention because it doesn't even deserve to have its name spoken

I thought it would be the same when i bought this phone but it turned out perfect(as far as i know)

There's no difference between this Z1 and my iphone 5 except for this being a little sharper
[Xperia Z1 General] Psilokilll:
This is not. Why?

Do you know the little whole on the top of the back? Should be the mic but I was thinking it was the fingernail whole to open the cover back plate.

Then with my fingernail doing smooth and light to open it, I snap n' crack the cover plate, this kind of material is really, really fragile. Diff to other cellphones in a not-black-piano-reflective-coverback-stylish, and only in plastic/metal.

In Z1 coverback plate, theres a transparent acrylic pellicle applied on the base black acrylic/glass (dont get what material is under the pellicle, when i change the cover i will see) of the cover to give shine and nice finish style and it is dropping pieces from the inside :l
[Xperia Z1 General] OfficerTux:
So you tried opening the back of a waterproof phone, that is glued together with a strong adhesive, by pulling on a hole that, according to the manual, is used for the second microphone and has a warning sign on the original protector film that says "do not insert screwdriver here".

And then it's the fault of the really fragile material when the backcover breaks...

I see, you are out of you mind. ..and I don't want say anything else.

[Moto X Q&A] androidlicious:
Hi,

I'm thinking about picking up a Dev Edition Moto X to use on T-Mobile. I'm currently on a Nexus 4 and do not have any tethering services. With my Nexus 4, I cannot tether on Android 4.4 unless I root and customize a system file. I'm curious if anyone else uses the Moto X on T-Mobile and has been able to tether successfully via a user agent change on Android 4.4.

So far, the threads I've seen are related to modifying Verizon Moto Xs to allow tethering.

Thanks.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Chilidog:
So freeze the sense one and install the AOSP one?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] gomorrah:
The AOSP lockscreen is already built in. The HTC lockscreen just automatically overrides it. If you freeze the HTCLockscreen.apk or use a file explorer to rename it to HTCLockscreen.apk.bak then the AOSP one will work on its own. The only downside to this is that you have to unlock your phone to be able to answer a call.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Chilidog:
I froze the htc one but it's still there lol
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] gomorrah:
I never freeze it, I always use Root Explorer to rename it. And depending on what ROM you're using you have to rename the .ODEX file for the lockscreen too.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brholt6:
Try rebooting. I used root explorer to add .bak to the file name. Didn't change anything until I rebooted.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Tawner:
Managed to find it in the normal app folder (I missed it), but ive deleted the apk (and the corresponding file), rebooted, still htc sense lockscreen. Any ideas?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Ahh OK.

If it returns, then you're likely on a stock ROM.

Sense Roms are now system write protected.

Meaning you can't modify the stock system files while booted to the OS.

You can flash a script in recovery that can delete them however.

Most custom Roms have the system write protection removed.

You can also use adb while in recovery to delete files.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Tawner:
Okay, gotcha, did some research. Am I correct when I say that when I manage to get S-Off this would work?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Yes, that is correct.

Unfortunately there is no way of gaining S-off yet/currently for the Verizon kitkat update.

Yeah i realized that the quality of senny's front camera is very poor.

I just imagining how to change the camera using other front camera hardware.

Is that possible?

It has 1.3mp quality, but depend on the result, it just like a hell crap vga quality image.
[HTC Sensation] tiguy99:
Probably not going to happen. Internally, the design only allows for the camera that's pre installed. Everything from the shape to the design of the flex cable and software is made to support the unit HTC built for this phone.

Now if you're able to build a new one from scratch and alter the software it could be possible then. Why not consider the One X or One for the better cameras?
[HTC Sensation] EvilKing009:
senny's front camera quality is quiet poor,but it is only in low light and night condition.On sun light,at least its better.

one X and one are expensive as hell,even much expensive on second hand prices. :(
[HTC Sensation] tiguy99:
That's true! Just wish they made the internals more plug and play friendly for people like us who want to upgrade their phone components without having to purchase an entire new phone to do so.

Have you checked eBay? I've seen used One X phones sell between 110-180 which is close to what a used Sensation is going for around here as well.

If you can repair a broken screen, you can find them even cheaper than that. Might be with considering upgrading if you can sell your Sensation and break even in the process!
[HTC Sensation] EvilKing009:
it is better to be have a phone without any fault instead of having broken screen issue,just only way to have is to save/earn enough money to buy an one X or an one.
[HTC Sensation] tiguy99:
Most definitely. When you're ready to upgrade, the good news is if you decide to sell your Sensation, with the One X, your out of pocket cost will be minimal!
[HTC Sensation] EvilKing009:
i guess this is only for some countries,mine one country doesn't have this. :(
[HTC Sensation] tiguy99:
Check Swappa and eBay. You should find some deals that ship internationally!
