    Why go to CID52? k800i

    Why would anyone go from CID49 to CID52 ?

    As i understand it the older CID you have the easyer it will be to hack your phone right?

    On CID52 it is harder to hack the phone and to unlock it.

    or am i wrong?

    No, you have right. Sometimes you upgrade your phone by SEUS and it write new CID to your phone.

    Nice day

    Updating CID for some phones offer more firmwire for them to choose from. And there are some advantage's for updating which are faster menu and some bugs are fixed.

    Look what means CID:

    CID = This "number" defines the version of SE's protection present in the phone.New CIDs are deployed from time to time, for the sole reason of preventing them from beeing unlocked/flashed/tampered with by non-SE service tools. Current CIDs in use by SE are 29/36/37/49/51. SE-based LG/Sharp phones use the same system (but different versions). The OTP (One Time Programmable memory) and EROM of a phone might be protected by different CIDs, usually the case in newer K600s/K608s.

    You can upgrade, but I would wait with upgrading to CID52. You don`t gain and lose much. Look only upgrade can be made ( CID ) , not downgrade.
    If you upgrade, you can never go back.

    Nice day
