I live in Korea and got the HTC Raider a couple weeks ago. It is supposedly being released as the HTC Holiday in the US.

I am DYING to root this phone!!! Anyone have any idea how to do it? I would really appreciate any help!:)

Thanks a lot in advance! :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] davidyoung:
hey, buddy. kinda like only in your country has both the raider and 9100, so how do you think about the two? and how do you like the raider？
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] downradio:
Is the Korean version of the Raider unlocked? I live in Hong Kong - been trying to find a parallel import version but it seems impossible....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] icepixie:
just got the rogers version of the raider... sad there's no root for it yet :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] idanoclo:
Htc vivid aka raider/holiday has almost same specs but comes in black or white with a 1.2 ghz processor and its coming to the us november 6. Whats everyones reviews? Good, bad or go with the galaxy s 2?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
I for the Bell version of HTC raider , it is blazing fast...I was able to clock 8.15mbps in lte mode. I was move on between LTE/HSPA+/HSPA/Wf-fi flawlessly.

its a great device

Not sure how to get the forum going for this device
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Stormv64:
Got My Bell HTC Raider yesterday

I had the s2 i9100 previously and love the HTC raider I clocked 10 mbs down in Calgary, don't even have LTE here yet that's just 4G+.

So what made u cross over to the htc raider? Im coming from my first android phone in the htc inspire 4g which im enjoying but i am ready for an upgrade and im stuck between the galaxy s2 skyrocket and the htc vivid from AT&T.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Stormv64:
Went for the Raider/vivid due to dual channel hspa +
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Stormv64:
Dual channel hspa+ , notification light, LTE, since its a HTC phone once its rooted you can get beats audio on it.

Thought about waiting for the nexus but don't know if its dual channel hspa + yet and like having 16gb built in and the option for additional storage (have a 32gb micro SD)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] urusaikara:
Koreans already rooted the Raider/Vivid

a guy in the korean htc forum made a permanent rooting tool for it

which means that my raider is rooted

but I am not sure whether itz going to work for at&t version
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] urusaikara:
Do you want to root raider?

Im not super android literate, i know theres different types of root from what ive read. i was able to temp root it using zergs one root method. It would revert back to non rooted status after restart. i unlocked my bootloader and applied this method afterwards and the phone is still rooted. i am able to use setcpu etc but most importantly titanium backup which i love. hopefully this helps some

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] urusaikara:
Vivid has fastreboot option somewhere in the batery control panel in setting like sleeping mode of desktop

wonder it is still rooted after you discard the option
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Tx Redneck:
S-On is a security "feature" that locks the NAND(internal memory). You'll not be able to write to /system while booted until S-Off is achieved. Rom's can still be flashed via recovery as soon as each is made.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] idanoclo:
Dual channel hspa+? Can you please explain more. Not sure what the vivid benefits by having this feature.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Stormv64:
Dual channel hspa + means that instead of a Max 4g speed of 21mbs you have 42mbs but the network has to support dual channel. The bell and telus network supports dual channel not sure about the rogers.

If you look at the s2 i9100 its Max speed is rated at 21mbs and then look at the s2 hercules sgh-t989 its rated at 42mbs
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cheeze377:
Is there a way to unroot the Raider? I'm with Rogers and I need to take it in for repair so I need to restore it back to original. I have not changed the rom or kernel yet.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rquinn19:
Most thorough way would be to flash the official RUU located somewhere in the Dev section I believe. I don't think there's a way to undo the HTC Dev bootloader unlock. That shouldn't make a difference anyways.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Tx Redneck:
Actually, if the user chooses to use the htcdev unlock, they have to agree to a voided warranty.

Saved and Texan by the grace of God, Redneck by choice.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rquinn19:
That is not correct.

Taken from HTC: It is our responsibility to caution you that not all claims resulting or caused by or from the unlocking of the bootloader may be covered under warranty.

They cannot legally void your warranty all together. It's like putting aftermarket lights on your car and the dealer not wanting to do a warranty repair on the engine. Now if the phones problems are due to something unlocked bootloader related then he SOL.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Longcat14:
Oh yeah... that's right, they can't legally void your warranty, but like you said, if the damage is related to the unlocked bootloader (would have to be software problems, or a potential brick), then it's not their responsibility to fix it.

I never though of that...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rquinn19:
To be honest of you're worried about needing HTC warranty repair you're better off buying insurance anyways. You ship the phone to them across seas and then wait weeks to get it back.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cheeze377:
Thanks for the info. The problem I'm having wouldn't be software related so it should be ok. Will flashing official ruu get rid of recovery?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Tx Redneck:
You put waaaaay to much trust in their parsing of words and your analogy is horrible.

Saved and Texan by the grace of God, Redneck by choice.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cheeze377:
I am really struggling with this. I have tried to install 3 different RUU's and none have been sucessful. It errors out and when I unplug the usb from the phone the screen on the phone reads

RUU

Security fail!

Update fail!

I've tried thru fastboot and also thru the Rom Update Utility. I even tried extracting the rom.zip from the RUU package and flashing that. All I want to do is get the phone back to factory setting so that I can bring it in for some battery issues I'm having. I'm worried that my battery is going to crap out on me and leave me screwed. Is there any other way to unroot or does anyone have any suggestions on why I can't install the stock RUU's. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cheeze377:
Is there anyone who can give me any direction. I have made a gold card and tried install RUU with it but that did not work either. Please can someone help - I'm out of ideas and don't know what else to try

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cyber Akuma:
Its for my father's HD2, Windows Mobile is pretty much useless nowadays, and he loves the Voice Search feature on my Evo 3D. Its going to be a NAND rom, not booting from SD, that would be too annoying for him to use.

Thing is, there are only about 1000 roms for this thing....... even dozens of versions of Cyanogen.

And on top of that, I don't know how well some of the custom roms with Sense 2.0 or 3.0 would work, or if any are missing hardware support.

I understand you lose performance if you add-on alternate UIs like sense, but how big is the performance hit? Hes not going to be playing high-end 3D games or performing protein folding or anything on the thing, so as long as the performance loss doesn't hit the "Phone becomes laggy, input lags, and it takes forever to load anything" range, I would actually prefer a sense based rom than one without.

Again, I am doing this for someone that isn't TOO technical, though no stranger to computers either, so I don't need a rom packed full of overclocking and root tweaking options (though a rooted rom would still be preferred).

So then, are there any good Sense 3.0 roms for the HD2 available? Got any you recommend? Do they still support all of the phone's hardware?

If not, what would be your next choice? Is there much point in using Sense 2.0 over vanilla android other than the extra sense widgets which he would probably not care about? Sense 3.0 does have the looping home screens and the very functional lock screen that I know he would find useful.

Thanks, I know a lot of people ask for recommendations, but after searching for roms for days and basically flying blind in the "maybe this one will be good, its got a lot of people installing it" category I could really use some advice, especially for a Sense 3.0 rom... if they exist.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Moon2:
If you really want sense, go for a dhd sense 3 rom (Runnymede Sense 3.5 works well on mine), and if you really want looping homescreens, install launcherpro on any rom of your choice.

BUT I'd recommend a cm7/miui rom because in the end, it's still slow.

Linkies:

- Typhoon

- Dorimanx

- DHD Sense 3 - Dungphp
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Cyber Akuma:
Not a fan of Sense 3.5 over 3.0 personally.

And just how slow is it compared to CM7? I mean, I understand CM7 will be faster than a sense rom, even CM7 with sense hacked in, but as long as its not laggy or sluggish thats fine, I don't need it to break benchmark records and run the latest 3d software.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] daedric:
I really like the sense 3.X roms... and i don't find them THAT slow (i have a DHD).

But that god damn graphic glitch is anoying, and i'm not going to disable GPU rendering of sense to get it working without glitches... must wait :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nicknowsky:
Im new to NAND HD2, but not new to the HD2 ( sold my 1st one, just got another the other day ) but I just flashed my first Android NAND ROM and I noticed all thse graphic glitches, i thought it was something else. But apparently its a common problem for everyone? No fix Im assuming.

Anyways im curious what you mean by DHD?

GHetting to performance, HD2 isnt bad at all! Im old time Android owner going back to the G1 and myTouch 3G.If you wanna see degraded performance try flashing a Sense rom on a G1 or 32B device. OWwwo

I have the same question (which ROM to use?) but this post still doesnt not give me a clear answer. I have been using Mikhei777 sense 3.0 version (original) but it has lots of lag and is fairly sluggish. He has upgraded it a few times but now seems to be spending more time on the sense 3.5 version. Its my wifes phone so do not want to keep trying new versions. Just want someone to recommend a known good stable version...

Rafdroid from Rafpigna if you want sense without glitches

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Egrier:
I've been using Mikhei777's Android 2.2.1 Sense 2.0 rom for quite some time. It works great and haven't had any problems at all with it. The wifi hotspot works also. Not sure about bluetooth and USB tethering stuff. Don't use them. He deleted a lot of the useless system apps but there is a rar file you can download from the first post that has all of the deleted stuff in case there is something you want to put back in it. I've only put on Facebook and the text to speech stuff. I'm not using an ext on my phone since I have a TMOUS HD2 so, I don't have memory issues. Give it a try. If you don't like it you can always flash something else.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] greg17477:
exactly, wise words...

if you want a good rom with everything working, miui is the way to go. If your friend is not a hardcore techie, he better stays away from those Sense roms. try it for yourself and compare.. but seriously feature wise Sense is so outdated compared to miui (except the htc widgets maybe).

The worst about MIUI, it's that laggish launcher/desktop.

I don't know why... it fells "low frame rate".
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nixda99:
That's why I use PAT's MIUI Rom with Sense launcher. It combines the best of the 2 world's. Very fast,customizable and everything is working like in other MIUI rom's and a very good, customizable launcher with the most important sense widget's.

No graphic glitches, not a disabled GPU acceleration and camcorder with full resolution and without lags. And the newest Android 2.3.7 version.

Use this rom since some month's, will never go back to the slow sense rom's. Only the dialer facebook integration of the sense dialer isn't there, but I don't have facebook and Co.:D But there is already an alternative dialer on the market, probably he can also display the actual feelings (posted in facebook) of the incoming caller and such nonsense.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] greg17477:
now you have surprised me :) not sure which version of miui you are refering to, but i am on jan-willems miui and there is zero lag (its butter smooth) on the luncher. basically there are no issues at all.

btw installing a 3rd party launcher on miui is a no go, as it decrases the fuctionality.. people no offense, but you need to read the miui bible ;)

@Nixda99

one question, what do you mean by:

"Only the dialer facebook integration of the sense dialer isn't there, but I don't have facebook and Co."?

When i get a call from a Facebook contact i can actually see its profile pic from facebook. On contact details i also see his status or last comment or whatever its called :) clicking on it, opens the facebook app and goes to this comment. is that what you meant?

If you are looking for a good ROM, Team Blue Droid have produced an excellent sense 3.5 Rom which looks the business and works far better than many others I have flashed recently on mh EU HD2.

Ok, from what I have gathered from here, seems like PATs JW MIUI is the way to go, is there any reason I should NOT use this rom? Because I am probably going to flash that today. Hope its easy to get the thing to run in english.

Here is my problem,

Messed around with Batista's 2.2 rom. Messed around with the provided TW launcher theme settings:

From the main screen, <Menu button> -> Preferences > TwLauncher > Install theme...

now instead of pointing to a downloaded theme.zip I pointed to the actual Batista2.2Rom.zip -> big mistake...

It copied the zip file somewhere and deleted it from my root folder. Now I see my rom whenever I go to TW4 preferences > Pick a theme... I can see my Batista2.2Rom.zip..

Nothing helped, deleting dalvik cache, Wipe data/factory reset... nothing

After 3 rom installations I still see my Rom.zip as a theme.

How can I delete it or do a full wipe of the phone, every setting?

(Using Titanium backup to uninstall Tw Launcher didn't help either)

The only issue i've had is sensativity (sometimes it'll report it can't hear anything where as Shazaam will always record a sample and then try and identify). Also once Bing Music identified a track for me, but gave the album as some random compilation, rather than the artist's actual album.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Purple11:
I love that thing.. because i listen to lot of tracks from dj mixes or some compilation, so i dont know what album it is from, so instead of giving me the compilation name it takes me to the original track and album, very useful if you listen to Remixes or electronic music..

I removed my old Shazam from the 'XBOX section' after testing and seeing bing music..
