Good for you.

But what do you want to do? Doesn't make sense what you are asking?

Change CID to 11111111 and MID to 2PZC10000? What will you get by changing MID? What Is developer device?
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] EtherealRemnant:
Try doing an adb backup. Excellent guide here.

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/backup-restore-your-android-phone-using-adb-ajibola-okubanjo

Note that some apps will not backup - authentication apps, for example, tend to not be able to be backed up using this method but it should grab most of the user apps and their data + APKs. It isn't perfect but it is a lot better than starting from scratch.

It takes a long time so be patient.

I won't go S-OFF until there is a way to set the factory lock back. Regardless, great work team! Hopefully HTC doesn't block it in a firmware update like they have in the past.

I want to convert dual sim in one sim unlocked edition. I confused developer edition. True is unlocked edition. I think that after conversion have a boost in battery because i not utilize dual sim (i have sim plus microsd).
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] velimirchek:
You don't have a boost in battery. You use 1 SIM in dual SIM device and all the same.

Hello to all!

First i'm new to HTC phones U11 is my first one ;)

I have CID 034 and 1.13.401.1

Witch CID is preferred for unlocked version in EU?

Also can i' s-off and then somehow root... without contacting HTC and unlocking bootloader?

tnx!
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
This is the official EU firmware/ROM and CID. You're already on an unbranded device with OTA coming right from HTC. Root can be achieved without S-OFF as well. But make sure to have an untouched system image backup at hand confuse OTA won't work once system partition got mounted read/write due to block based OTA updates.

Can you flash unsigned firmware with the temp s-off on the u11?
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] beaups:
The zips themselves can be unsigned, yes. But you need to make sure that any loaders you choose to include in the zip are signed.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] Kisakuku:
Meaning rpm, xbl, abl +/- hosd?
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] beaups:
+Tz, probably some others. It's uncommon for people to modify those, and with the exception of abl you wouldn't want to modify any of those loaders on other s-off devices either.

The amount of work and time they put in to come up with S-off ain't cheap.
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] velimirchek:
Just a note from the idiot (me):

Be sure to reboot back to download mode after downgrading to keep the temp s-off and not directly to system as it will mess up some little things (at least it did for me downgrading from 1.27.401.5 to 1.13.401.1)

I purchased the app and have gone S-OFF several times and successfully flashed new firmware 1.16.617.6 on my US Unlocked model. Last night I tried flashing the European firmware 1.27.401.5, but now I cannot boot the phone. Details here:

Since I cannot boot my ROM to access the Sunshine app, is there an alternate way to set S-OFF from my PC?
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] rom116:
I assume you did not change the CID of your hone to match the european model (or just go Super CID) If this is correct, you probably just need to use the SD card method to flash the 1.16 US Unlocked firmware so that your phone has the appropriate firmware.

I am wait update sunshine for support android oreo on HTC U 11 .
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] DaConcho:
Couple of questions about S-OFF for the U11 with the changes that had to be made..

Does s-off trigger a factory reset/wipe? Or can I run it at will without needing to set the phone back up. I know the app said it doesn't have issues with encryption like on the 10 but just wanted to make sure before I get started (sorry didn't see a definitive answer posted elsewhere for the U11).

With Oreo about to be released, if I wanted to have the option to return to Nougat after updating, I would just need to be superCID before taking the update correct? Or will I need to wait until s-off is updated to support Oreo? Wasn't a huge fan of Oreo on my pixel, if I can't return to nougat I may just hold off on updating..

Thanks!
[HTC U11  Guides, News, & Discussion] michaelbsheldon:
"If your U11 is Unlocked and S-0n, you can still go back to Nougat with correct zip RUU done on an sdCard. It will wipe."

WRONG: It is in fact possible to go backward WITHIN the 1.xx.xx.x.x series,

but NOT back from the 2.xx.xx.x.x RUU's to the 1's as other have correctly pointed out.

If I need to go back to carrier software (given they will take longer to release oreo), the supercid allows me to flash backwards to carrier nougat, and then I can temp S-OFF again to get back to stock CID etc.

4. In situations like these where the value resets once you boot into certain modes, how would they prevent the value reset?

Although on a related note, I'm late to the U11 party (just got it last month due to the bottom speaker on my 10 going shot) and I miss easy firmware updates with s-off. I ended up wiping/RUU to update to O (I was on Viper 1.8.0 and restoring original untouched system image didn't work for me to get OTA and it was quicker eventually to just install fresh RUU and set up from scratch) and I'm not looking forward to future firmware updates on this device without s-off.

So the purpose of my post is in showing my own personal interest; I would easily pay the $25 just for the ability of easier firmware updates in the future. :)

Yes, you can only if you're bootloader unlocked.

If you're on the US Unlocked single sim version, proceed with this:

Go here, thanks to our brilliant Devs, and download the RUU zip version you want from BS_US001 list:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72425204&postcount=2

Get a known good sdCard and copy the RUU zip from the U11 list.

Rename the file exactly: 2PZCIMG.zip - Make sure there are not 2 ".zips" at the end of the file name.

Put sdCard into phone. Boot up with volume down and power.

Say Yes to do you want to do this install.

Let it run.

Reboot to bootloader without a reboot of the system.

Choose Recovery. When you see the Android symbol, press power and volume up to enter Recovery.

Then do a factory reset from Recovery and let it reboot to user interface.
