HELP! Messed up with HTC Vivid - General Questions and Answers

So as some of you may know, the vivid was recently unlocked. Being comfortable with root and custom roms from my nexus one, I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it...
I then wanted to install a ROM that many were reporting to work well with the ATT vivid... however I did something wrong.
I first went here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365853 which says you need to install the kernel here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359656
However I guess I have no recovery? If I click on recovery in bootloader it just shows a phone with some arrows... and if I open ADB on my computer it just scrolls through stuff quickly then closes. Am I screwed? I can get to my bootloader at least... any help would be much appreciated.

If I could somehow flash the stock kernel back I'm sure it would work, as the stock kernel source is available at htcdev However I can't figure out how to get adb to let me actually enter commands while in the bootloader.

Solved it!
I pushed the recovery using fastboot on the computer and was able to flash the ROM. Yay!

Ok so how does your rom work for you? is it better than stock? Oh and of course what rom was it?

[Q] What is the best option for my situation?

So I have a ns4g that I attempted to root but got hung up and am now stuck with a unlocked bootloader but no super user. So as I see it I have 3 options (if you see others PLEASE TELL ME)
1. somehow get my bootloader locked again and go back to stock (unroot)
2. keep unlocked bootloader and eventually accept ics ota (will this be ok or will having an unlocked bootloader much things up with the ota?)
3. figure out a way to finish the root process I'm sort of in the middle of (aka get super user)
If it matters I am running 2.3.7 and using a macbook running 10.7.2
What would you guys suggest?

flash a custom recovery(cwm or twrp) via fastboot, then flash a custom rom(and gapps). thats all you need. all the custom roms out there have root. you dont have to flash superuser.
How do I flash cwm? I think when I did this before I had the wrong version as it didn't allow for me to mount after I unlocked the bootloader
Use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1250583 to root! It will recognize that your bootloader is already unlocked and skips to flashing CMW and giving you root! There's a youtube video showing it in action if you get stuck by qbking!
Will this work with osx?

heres the latest version of cwm recovery for the nexus s(not ns4G) http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img

I'm fairly content just waiting for the google ics ota... when that comes will it mess my phone up because of my unlocked bootloader?
or even better can someone write me instructions to lock my bootloader?
I found this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875630
But obviously there are steps before this to have the terminal put these commands towards the phone.

only you dont need superuser, any custom rom has root.
Ok, I think I just want to relock my phone and wait for the ota...
I've tried just going into terminal and typing "fastboot oem lock" and it says that the command is not found... what did I do wrong?
You don't need to lock bootoader to get ota.
I've read before that accepting an ota with an unlocked bootloader will brick your phone... Can anyone else confirm that it's ok to accept the eventual ota with an unlocked bootloader?

Recommendations on OTA (ATT 4.0.3/4.0/1.73)

Hey all,
I rooted my HOX (1.73, 4.0.3) with the kpenn ne-Click a few days after I got it for the Tether and to de-bloat. Since then I haven't read anything on the One X till I heard Jelly Bean coming along. Anyhoo my question is what the upside of getting the new OTA (4.0.4) would be and how I would go about it if I wanted to (I've never updated before and ATT has stopped asking me to update, also I get nothing when I try to check for an update).
I've been reading around and it seems like most people are on to 1.85 and are flashing 4.1/2.2. My primary uses of my phone are for the media applications/web browsing and I haven't noticed any real drop in performance but I have heard the new updates have sped up the HOX considerably which is something I'm always interested in.
Thanks!
DON'T flash any OTA you will lose your root and will lose your ability to re root because there is no boot loader unlock for the new base. If you want to update and flash a new ROM and want to stick to sense, look at clean rom or xi40. Both are updated on the new base and are heaps and bounds better than the original ATT software :thumbup:

i one-clicked unrooted my phone earlier and freaked out (and the new updates didn't work out on my phone anyway). i ended up getting kpenn's one click again and putting SU back into my phone. Do you have any links that can take me on a step by step process of unlocking my phone and flashing those roms on it? I just love being able to control my phone and pushing it to its absolute limits.
Sigh. I followed the tutorial but I made a few mistakes...
1) I unlocked my phone way earlier than I should have so I wiped everything before I could make a back-up..
2) Re-locked accordingly to see if I could keep updating. I did manage to get to 1.85 like the tutorial said but.....
3) Since I didn't have a custom recovery I wasn't sure how to proceed. I couldn't get the root to flash so I tried using the 1-click 1.85 root since my phone was running 1.85.
....This ended up updating to 2.2 so now I have an unlocked HOX 2.2/4.0.4. With all the bloat.
Dumb dumb dumb. Ugh.

it's UNLOCKED?
you're lucky then.
just push a recovery like twrp then push root. Then you can debloat.
Yep, it's still unlocked. That was around the 4-7th reset I did (I messed up a lot). Do you have a link that shows me how to do that? I'm actually not as bummed about going to 2.2 since it runs so much faster than 1.73 did.

I notice one of the links is for 1.85. Does that mean that I'll go from 2.2 back to 1.85? I just wanted to make sure since my impression from the forums is that there is no 2.2 root yet unless it was flashed.

no those pages just tell you how to manually install root and recovery.
your bootloader is still unlockable
unlock it
then install a recovery
then install root via that recovery
Ahh, thanks a bunch man.
Sorry if this is repetitive....
So I've checked my phone and currently it states that it is
"Re-locked"
I downloaded a recovery so it's currently on my phone. Furthermore I all ready had a copy of SU sitting in my phone's download folder.
Does this mean that I'm going to...
- Unlock bootloader (that is currently relocked) and have everything erased again.
- Reboot from recovery (of the evita 2.2.img I just downloaded with TWRP)
- Then flash the SU root I all ready have on my phone?

yeah unlock the boot loader. set up the phone again
then install the recovery then root.
to make your unlock stick, turn off fastboot in power options, then power down phone completely then restart it to the bootloader.
Hmm, so my phone is definitely unlocked now. I installed the recovery and I manually flashedthe new SuperSU in that link you posted for me. As far as I can tell nothing is happening.
Note: It says that it installs the recovery but there is no reboot that occurs. I've done this both with the android app and manually and nothing is happening.
I don't see SuperSU and rootchecker is confirming that my phone isn't rooted yet.
so you reboot to recovery, choose the superSU package to install then what happens?
I know this works I've done it quite a few times myself.
Presently I installed the latest img file with TWRP with the app. There is not reboot that occurs (unless I'm suppose to reboot on my own?). If that's the case then I've been a total idiot.
I've just been installing the openrecovery and then I press "Flash Roms" to flash the supersu. I get a little notification that says "Preparing to Flash" and then nada.
After you install twrp recovery you reboot. Then you boot to recovery and flash the super su zip manually
Wooh! I got it to work! Thank you so much!

Yes. But you will have to flash kernels aka boot.img separately using fast boot.

[Q] how to get fastboot mode back on the tablet

What I have done so far, in order:
Installed the OTA JB upgrade on my 100% stock unrooted tablet.
Installed and configured ADB.
Downgraded to the .30 firmware.
Rooted my device (confirmed working).
So right now I have rooted ICS, but I can't choose the fastboot option anymore when I boot using the volume down+power combination. I only have the option to boot the device normally or wipe data.
How can I get fastboot back on my device? ADB is still working normally.
It's probably a simple solution I'm missing but I've been trying to get CM10 installed for about 2 hours now just trying to work my way through the steps one at a time and right now I'm a bit lost.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I have been on JB for awhile, so if my memory served me right, for ICS, you need to unlock your device to get to fastboot? On JB, you could get to fastboot without unlocked. Correct me if I'm wrong ppl.
That's correct. You need to unlock if you want fastboot on ICS. If you upgrade to JB, you can keep your root and have fastboot back.
Also, you need to be unlocked regardless if you want to install a custom ROM like CM10 or any custom recoveries. Even if you upgrade to JB and get fastboot back, it will not flash if you're not unlocked.
I forgot to mention that I already used an unlock tool and it says this device is unlocked during boot. I'm on my phone right now so if someone could provide me with a link with more information about this unlocking I would be very appreciative.

All the custom roms on this forum will not have any of the bloatware that comes with the stock device.
And to fix the tethering issue, just create a new APN and set it to epc.tmobile.com, that should bypass the tethering/hotspot issue on T-Mobile.

It takes like 10 minutes..and then download the ROM and flash it. Voila.
Ok finally unlocked my phone using the HTC method. Downloaded the Trickdriod Rom and tried to go into Recovery mode, but all I get is a screen with a red triangle and exclamation? Rebooted the phone, bootloader, same thing? What is going on? I know the phone is unlocked, because it says it, it just gets stuck in recovery mode...Any advice?
Did you flash a recovery? Doesn't look like it if you are getting android recovery.

I'd just start over fresh.
Relock the bootloader
Go back to stock with a ruu install
Unlock bootloader
Flash custom recovery
Flash rom
Flash boot.img
I think that's the order you want to do things in but couldn't hurt to double check on a different guide.

Tampered means non-official software such as root, it is OK and you will always see it when using custom ROMs.
Might want to check the FAQs, have some basic useful info which will help understand some things too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24884624&postcount=3
After unlocking bootloader on the steps on previous post, I would root the phone. Then flash the custom recovery.
Did you flash the boot.img with fastboot from the ROM you choose? You have to:
1- extract it from the rom you downloaded,
2- place it on your computer on the same folder than fastboot
3- boot into bootloader
4- select fastboot
5- on your PC on a command line run: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Let me know how it goes,

Ok I tried to redo it again and maybe I know what the issue is ...when I try to go into recovery mode ...It says Andriod development (S3) Do I have the issue phone? If so where is the download items for my phone?
Does anyone know if I have the 3s phone?
I believe so, check your processor speed. S3 I believe is 1.7 not 1.5 as S4 is
If that is the case you are limited to S3 roms. There are a couple. I didn't think S3's are in US--maybe wrong--
Not sure on all this except processor speeds
Good to see you here FenderGuy--think we crossed paths on the Nexus Forums--

If you've unlocked the bootloader you can't do any of that other stuff. You need to fastboot flash a recovery.img. Then flash a ROM from there. Instructions in the Ace Think Tank in the Desire HD General section. Note that the DHD and the I4G are essentially the same phone and have the same rooting instructions, and they can use each others' ROMs.

There are two ways to root and flash a custom ROM. One is S-Off. The other is unlocking the bootloader. S-off's tool has been retired, so you can only do it manually. You can still root and flash custom ROMs with an unlocked bootloader, though.

What's an XGS ROM? You're hanging on the boot splash because #6 had an error. Fastboot flashing the ROM zip's boot.img is essential because you are S-On.

Like I said earlier, there are two ways you can root and flash custom ROMs, S-On with unlocked bootloader and S-Off, and you can't have both. If you want S-Off, you would need to relock. And since AAHK (the S-Off tool) is retired, you can only manually S-Off now (which is something I would only recommend for advanced users). Using outdated tools, like AAHK and SuperOneClick, can get you in very bad predicaments very quickly (and I should note that you will probably not find support for those cases). You can look into other ROMs though, and note that the Inspire 4G and the Desire HD are basically the same phone and can use each others' ROMs. Since you are now rooted and can flash custom ROMs through recovery anyway, I would strongly advise that you stick to flashing ROMs now and not try to get S-Off.
LTE is a hardware issue. I4G and DHD don't support it.

When you flash ROMs and/or do anything else with your phone, make sure you read thoroughly. In the case of ROMs, read the OP carefully. It will tell you that you need to flash gapps.
