ICS RUU Downloaded on two different machines, Progress meter stays at 34% and goes no further.

Can no longer go into HBOOT, Power and Volume Down combo presents me with what HTC calls a recovery screen ( Four white exclamaition points on each corner with an HTC logo in the middle )

when ruu is run with this screen on the phone, it attemps to reinstall the ICS rom, all attempts never get passed the loader screen displaying 34%

RUU has been running for the better part of an hour on both machines with the same device plugged in, no progress

Just curious if anybody else is getting the "optimizing applications" box on every reboot? Not a big deal as I see PG released something new. :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] anthromatt:
I get this message if I select reboot from the "power down" menu. If I turn the phone off then back on, I do not get this message.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dxtra:
Any luck flashing?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dxtra:
I can't flash recovery. My boot loaders won't unlock gets stuck at unlock screen every time .

I must say, my phone has been running smooth as butter after installing ICS. Fast and smooth all the way, no slowdowns or lag at all. It’s like I purchased a whole new phone or something. All I need now is a tethering hack and I’m all set.

Camera App?

Is the Camera app the same as the HTC Gingerbread stock one? I've been using the Amaze camera, which has a lot more features. Any chance that would work here, even though it's designed for Sense 3.5? Thanks for any responses!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] strose09:
I also wanted to comment and say PG's and thecubes directions were excellent and I was able to update the new HBOOT and flash the ICS rom zip. I probably read it like 20 times before attempting just making sure I knew every step. The last part of thecube's instructions can be confusing:

Step 8: download the update PH39IMG clockwork installer, put that on your external SD, and boot to HBOOT then install it.

I would be impossible to use that step since you had to use the same file name for step 3 no? Or is it the same file? I was able to fastboot flash the recovery instead. Thanks again for all your efforts.

A Warning to those who use Titanium Backup. I had to factory reset from CWM because it carried over settings for apps even though i told it not to and messed up quite a few things with my ICS. Factory reset did fix it but trying to save people the headache I went through

Does this work on Raiders from Rogers in Canada? I've updated using the ph39img.zip with success and rooted / flashed CWM. Does that mean I'm ok to flash this rom?

I'm new to this whole hboot / htc thing so please be patient with me ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
Are you from rogers because if you got this stage that means you should have new hboot .

May be you reboot and hold power button and see which hboot version it shows.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cmscritic:
Which version should it show? 39?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
I am not sure what rogers version was with Bell it is 1.83.0066 .

Just reading some posts I think u should be 2.xxx something.

Is the ics RUU working? Any success, still can't boot my phone.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 8125Omnimax:
One angle I had tried was searchng for the ROM.ZIP when executing the RUU package on the phone through the external sd card

Renamed it PH39IMG.zip, placed it on the root of the external sd card, and started up the bootloader. The phone updates a few components, reboots and starts to re flash again. After it finishes updating the SYSTEM partition, it then tries to update the USERDATA partition. This is where it hangs....forever

Tried to squeeze in another bootloader unlock attempt after this and I still get frozen after I press the power button to confirm I want to unlock it.

My last attempt will be with the FOTA package that is described in the OP, along with the original folders included.

If this fails I have every reason to believe my Vivid is dead. Ill keep you all updated

Damn. How is this possible where did we go wrong? Taking the money out the bank to buy the wife a new phone. She's piss. Thanks for your help. Keep me posted.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 8125Omnimax:
I have yet to see one post that says the RUU is working 100%, not trying to speculate it could be the main culprit, But after 3 redownloads of the same file, numerous attempts, I get the same results

When attempting to flash from a PC the progress meter stays at 34%

When attempting to flash using the external sd card and renaming the 400+MB file to ph39img.zip, it freezes on the second reboot when trying to flash the USERDATA partition

Bootloader unlock has failed numerous times, it just hangs at the screen

Last rom I was using was WCX 2-24-12 rom (non mod) with touch recovery.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dxtra:
I'll suggest for people to stay away from flashing. Do not wipe/factory reset after updating the ph.img if it felts to reboot or you permanently will brick your device. It seems as if you wipe your phone it wipes your recovery as well rendering it useless. There's a few people with the same issue over at the general thread.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] drewdatrip:
I followed both this thread and threcubeds post here:

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
This isn't true.

Factory reset/wipe data wipes the cache and data partitions. The system (rom) is located on the system partition. Your recovery was wiped from the RUU.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Weird mine wiped my ability to edit wifi settings, made it so I could not customize my lock screen, made it so I couldnt find chrome browser in the market or connect to gchat. It was just a heads up though, may not be the same for every one
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] anthromatt:
It sounds to me like you restored all your data...including the system data? I suspect you should only install apps and app data. That's all I ever do....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Dxtra:
That's the only thing that I did different. I wiped the device, now I can't unlock or restore with RUU to make matters worst I can't boot to hboot after RUU. Is there anything I could do or the phone is useless
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bsSkunkApe:
Thanks for the help, I've been trying to get back into bootloader a dozen times every few hours since last night. No dice, I can't even get the white bootloader screen. It won't take any fastboot commands either. I'm gonna DL the RUU, though I don't think that will do anything since I can't get the phone to respond anyway. I read the whole procedure a bunch of times and haven't made a slip-up on flashing any android roms till now, and it's a doozy. At least I still have an upgrade I can burn if need be. Maybe I can get ahold of a One X or something.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
That was my first thought to, but it still did the same thing after i reset to factory in CWM. I reset again and just manually did it all. Small hassle. love the new ROM though
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dbaser:
Someone told him to restore all data on IRC yesterday... smh
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kxhawkins:
Restore all data does not restore system data

Edit: on second look, maybe it does. Ill look at it next time I flash. I never back up system apps, so it doesn't matter which restore I use
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dbaser:
Umm... Restoring ALL apps/data will restore GB stuff... unwise. Hence the reason I suggested just restoring missing apps. Of course this too still could cause problems if you restore something critical from a GB system.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kxhawkins:
Only if its backed up in the first place ...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dbaser:
Well it must have been as he was statiing on IRC there was a difference in the number of apps in TiBu...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kxhawkins:
Only after Google had started restoring his apps.........
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dbaser:
Understood.

To all those reading this exchange... DO NOT restore ALL apps.... mkay.

I hope this is a stupid question - re: ICS 4.0.3

I've tried to download the PH39IMG.zip file several times ... and even when the download completes successfully, I'm not able to see any files inside the zip.

Downloading other zips referenced in this thread, I'm able to see files inside the zip archive ... I've tried both mirrors, and have the same problem ...

Is it me [yes, I'm a newbie] or is there something else going on ...

I just got my Vivid ... and would like to go to ICS, unlock [done that & relocked, too], de-bloat, get ROOT & enjoy learning about & playing with my phone ... any help greatly appreciated.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] xxdopodxx:
Not a good news.

It seems that it doesn`t work on my HTC Raider...

Soooooo sad...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zzoinks:
Sorry for the NOOB post, but I'm coming from WinMo and this is a bit new to me. I posted in the "ota update" thread but didn't get a definitive answer.

Stock Vivid owner here. Not rooted, not unlocked. If I update using the RUU, is it a full wipe and reinstall or more of an upgrade? All apps need reinstalled, all user data wiped?

If it's a full wipe, is there any way to do a backup if I'm not rooted? AFAIK, Titanium Backup requires root.

Thanks,

-Brett.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cedrikfd:
Also waiting for a Raider-compatible version...

All of this because of a different HBOOT. Let's be honest: the Vivid and the Raider are the same frickin' device, only with an AT&T logo instead of HTC's on top of the phone...

grrrrr!!! A buddy at work has been running ICS on his GSM EVO 3D for weeks now, can't even get it yet on my Raider :-(

but patience is a vertue...

to all devs: thanks for your great work! it's really appreciated! :-)

I recovered just fine as the error was HBOOT wasn't flashing as PH139G knew it wasn't a Vivid.

I simply ran the RUU from Telstra and all is good.

Especially when I backed up EVERYTHING. :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zzoinks:
USB Error 170

I am trying the RUU on my stock Vivid and can't get past "Error 170":

Things I've tried:

Restart phone

Restart PC

Tried "Charge only" and USB modes on phone

Tried two different PC's (both Windows 7 Home Prem 64 bit)

Disabled MS Security essentials

Thoughts? Really want some ICS goodness and this is getting to be pretty frustrating.

Everything worked like charm

No single error , I used mac for entire proccess

I almost decide to sell my vivid u saved me

Now I have vivid with ICS , rooted,With unlocked boot loader

Thank you very much
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
The issue arose because when I restored "all apps", it included the GB dated HTC apps that were backed up, this is where my issues mainly arose. While it is true google had restored some of my apps, there is no way that in 5 minutes it restored 200 applications (believe it or not with how often I am on the go I use many of them at different times).

Now this was my own fault, and it happened multiple times because you know, when something doesnt work the first time you do it the exact same way several times after and expect different results (sarcasm). It was just a heads up, it may work for some but it did not work for me was all I was stating, so if it happens to someone else I just wanted to make people aware that going into CWM and clearing data and cache will reset you to stock and you can either restore "missing apps" and verify everything is there and working or manually download the apps again using the google restore and what not.

I appreciate EVERYONE in the IRC and on this forum who have helped me (and others) with this process. I know for many of you it is annoying to be asked how to fix a hundred things on something that has barely been out 48 hours.

Tether

Nice ROM, installed it and running without problems...thanks PG! I can't believe is stock :D

My only issue is that I really need wi-fi hotspot, is there anyway to solve that?

I don't want to change ROM, but without it, i'll have no choice but to downgrade.

Whats the instructions for the RUU file, sorry for the newbish questions but its been so long so I really did much with my phone because of the having to wait for the bootloader unlock from HTC, I also came from the Inspire which seemed beyond easy compared to this phone...unless I am just over thinking it?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
How many times does it have to be explained?

RUU is an exe.

RUN IT

follow the ONSCREEN instructions

Don't have phone in HTC sync mode

What other instructions need to be provided? It's all freaking automated.

So many repeat questions the last few days.

haha hence why I had asked if I was over thinking it, I dont know why this Vivid has me hexed as I used to flash back and forth on my Inspire like crazy but for some reason Im out of my element on this phone.... sorry for newbie question:(

Edit: ok last newbie question before I get banished, do I have to reroot the phone to get titanium and remove the bloatware
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 8125Omnimax:
New handset...check

Flashed to ics with ruu...check

Determination of last error on bricked phone phone: bad eMMC chip which was manufactured by Samsung. Showing failed across the board when in hboot and with the full ph39img.zip on ext sd.

I have a good hunch that it might be overclocking related, either way I'm staying at stock until a failsafe flash is discovered for the vivid.

Thanks for ICS, amazing OCed roms, and high benchmarks on Quadrant. I know that those of us who ultimately spent the time learning the ins and outs enjoyed the last 3 months of development very very much with these last couple of days reeling in the big fish called ICS. Thanks for putting up with us for this long. It's been a fun ride and no one has the right to ask you guys to come back.

You guys singlehandedly turned this phone, from locked bootloader and no development, into the first phones that can officially run ICS updated from GB. Hope you guys know how grateful a few of us are!

Ill address this. You may or may not know, that before i became a moderator i was very active chef cooking up winmo roms (this has been many years ago). And you can handle it for a while.

does this mean cwm flashable ics roms are coming soon? :D

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
make sure you have the proper boot.img flashed too
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] timmytim:
You mean PH39IMG.zip right?

Yea, I jumped the gun and flashed the one that thecubed made, which is CWM. So I went back and reflashed the original from the OP and now I'm stuck. I'm reflashing the ROM now and going to reflash the PH39IMG from the OP after that. I did all this coming straight from Holiraider / Holicakes. Shouldn't matter right?

Fingers crossed
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
the PH39 posted in the first post on THIS thread is for your HBOOT upgrade

here are the steps:

lock bootloader

flash ph39 in hboot (the one from OP)

boot back into hboot

unlock bootloader with your .bin file from first time

boot back into hboot, fastboot

fastboot flash the recovery you want (or just use thecubed's PH recovery file)

boot into recovery

flash rom

if it is still bootlooping, make sure you fastboot flash the boot.img thats inside the rom zip

Now let's get Sense 4.0 ported :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bamonkey:
simple enough although ive had this device for a little over 2 weeks now so im... cautious?.. ill be fine but i did realize something now that im getting a bit used to the process on HTC devices so i do have a quick question. i can lock my boot loader easy and im NOT on a stock rom right now. I noticed it wont let me reboot from hboot/fastboot so i can stick the ph39 file back on the card. i do know it tries to find the ph39 file when you first load hboot so the part im scratching my head is... i have to have my phone unlocked to get the ph39 file onto my sd card *ive already unlocked again and was able to boot normally* but when i do that wont my phone try to flash the ph39 file when my phone is rebooted and therefore unlocked?:confused:

edit: i could just try to put the file on the card, reboot to the bootloader unlocked and SEE if i can re-lock first but..hey..not taking any chances
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
?

you do not have to have it unlocked to put the PH39 from the OP on the sdcard...

its SIGNED, which means its straight from the OTA update

it will flash with a locked bootloader, because thats the way its intended to be flashed from HTC
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] come at me bro:
Cubed, pirate.. other devs

The camera doesn't seem to be ics

For example check out camera ics from the market

Also check out nova launcher that's ics

Also the message theme is stock sense

Also we can probably get on sense4 from the one x ruu

Gonna boot up linux tomorrow and try my best to contribute, I encourage others to try to help too instead of complaining about the 4 devs

There's also supposed to be sometype of HTC siri in that ruu/sense4

We can deff put together a more complete ics with or without a better sense experience then att and HTC did

Just brainstorming...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] timmytim:
Right on, that was the trick!

It boots up now past kernel but soon as it hits the AT&T splash screen it reboots. I think I need to clear cache, etc. fastboot -w doesn't work

EDIT: No go! Still boot looping at AT&T splash screen.

_______________________________________________________________________________

Edit 2: I finally got it. I ran a nand restore of GB and got it booted again. I then followed all steps, only this time I booted to HBOOT 2 times and the PH39 ran 2 times. The second time it flashed the radio and several other partitions. I didn't do that the first time and not sure why I had to do it this time. Oh well, I'm booted into the language portion of the setup.

Thanks you guys, seriously!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bamonkey:
lol i was afraid of sounding confusing :p

basically im stuck in fasboot or hboot/will not boot to the rom as soon as i re-lock the device from fastboot. im not savy enough with fastboot to know if there is a way to send the file to the sdcard at this point without booting back to the rom to put the file on the sdcard.

thx for putting up with me..damn..i feel like such a noob again its like 2 years ago when i got my first android device and was like *derp?*

edit again: ok, its not exactly by the instructions but i figured how how to proceed
