Most of this is not going to be "stock" ics. It is HTC sense built over ics. The camera does seem to be hw accelerated so yes it is rebuilt for ics. It may not look any different but it is.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
Hm, this ROM doesn't have a lock for WiFi hotspot telling you to dial 611. Has ATT just given up? :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] come at me bro:
I can't find none of the ics settings, grab that app
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] come at me bro:
Nahh found it :)

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] bamonkey:
removing this post. Its late...ive had 4 hours of sleep going into work tonight but hell ive figured this out with a bit of foolery
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NickChaplin:
doesnt work on velocity. hboot wont update.

not complaining just letting others know.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Leigh Kennedy:
Yeah, it gave the "incorrect device".

We are better off waiting for Telstra to release a FOTA.

Let's hope they won't dawdle any longer than they already have ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] contactwajeeh:
Got it up and running. Amazing speed I would say. Just the matter of seconds until it boots to the lockscreen. Insane speed.

Loving this... Huge thanks to all the people involved in getting this beast what it deserves...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] JEANRIVERA:
I had to manually download busybox installer from market in order to make some root apps to work, aside from that everything is working as it should!!!

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] boyppc:
pleale help me!

my phone (HTC AT&T) flash this rom is Brick: do not turn on, do not chaging, no to Hboot. help me!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] petco1506:
Same here phone won't boot up at all need help
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pauley:
Make sure you have the bootloader unlocked when you flash boot.img via fastboot, pull battery, let the PH39IMG.zip recovery install from HBOOT, pull battery, reboot into recovery, then install VIVID_ICS_OTA_ROOTED_CWM.zip from recovery. My Vivid also died a few min ago, but I think I'm making some progress now. ROM is installing now via recovery *fingers crossed*

It's working again! Sweet!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] shogunmark:
In case anyone is wondering, i used WC's recovery instead of CWM and it worked just fine.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
Can u post a link?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jayv81:
Thanks was wondering if this would work.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rajbsn:
You mean without latest HBOOT?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] shogunmark:
I'm mobile right now, but it should be in one of his locked threads just a few down from this one.

No, with the new hboot
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] anthromatt:
I had the same problem as you, however my nand restore didn't work/take. Just boot loops right at the HTC screen every time. Going to try the restore to stock zip now (maybe I should have done that before the nand restore attempt), and if that works, I am just going to give up and wait for the "real" thing. lol

EDIT: The restore to stock GB Zip worked great, phone is fully functional again.

EDIT 2: Followed the steps in the alternate method (I guess I can't give up) and all is well...upgraded to 4.0.3 now. Thanks everybody!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
So it fails right at 1st step and I am assuming you were able to recover or go back to GB based ROM>

Not sure if any one on Bell Network has tried this and wanted to see if it worked for them
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NIKKG:
Pirate Ghost,

First, I want to thank you for your guide. You and all the devs did a lot of work and deserve a lot of credit. There is an issue with the front page guide that was causing me bootloops. After the relock, I ran the PH39IMG.zip file to update HBoot, the problem is that it needs to be rerun a second time because the second time is the one that updates the radios and such. A lot of people including myself only ran it once and thus why we had so many issues.

Also, I think you need to mention that the boot.img inside the rom needs to be flashed before you flash the recovery. When I followed your guide with this method, the phone booted up normally and I was able to use ICS.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] panamakid:
I had this issue, you have to be patient when you run it the first time. it will run once, then turn off the phone, you have to wait like 2-3 minutes, and the phone will turn back on and run the other updates =]
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jeremy b:
ya it works ics ya
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ccb101:
Worked perfectly thank you :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NIKKG:
This update is still clocked at 1.2, I thought someone last night said the stock was bumped up to 1.5.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cyber_pete:
Thanks PG and all the devs who made this happen.

One question, for this step:

fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin

What if I did not keep my original .bin?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Just go to HTC dev site and follow their steps again. They will email you another one
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jayv81:
Update to ics. Went flawless. Just follow directions.

Btw I to can confirm that WildChild's touch recovery is working with this rom.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
face unlock

I don't see that face unlock is working, or i'm not sure what needs to be done to set it up at least. You can go to settings and enable it, and then let it set up your face settings, but it doesn't seem to show up on the lockscreen after its enabled. Just a heads up, I don't particularly need it, just messing with all the stuff in here.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Is there a simplified way of updating? As if we had downloaded the ota ourselves or through the HTC site manually? I get a little lost with the steps to flash HTC roms. I am use to Motorola... Out side of unlocking a boot loader and gaining/using root my knowledge is limited.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
it works, but you have to set the timeout period to instant or wait for 15minutes which is the default

i might have an RUU here shortly ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
Would this work on non AT&T phones , just not sure if flashing the AT&T stock work on Bell network, especially since it flahes radio etc...

I saw one message from telstra person saying that it gave some error and failed...hope I can recover from this
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rquiett:
PG just gotta say thank you for the wonderful guide you set up here. I followed your guide exactly and it worked perfectly. Thank you for putting this together for everyone here.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
no. it will not work as it requires the new HBOOT which is signed from HTC

we will keep an eye out for the raider/velocity ICS as well....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
Good that you replied I was about to restart the phone with PH39IMG.zip...just stopped at right time...Thanks a lot PG
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
it should be in your email from when you did it the first time
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cyber_pete:
Oh wow, great point, completely forgot it was emaild to me. Thanks.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brwnohno:
Everything went great. Just read everything before you flash and follow the directions on the first page and you will be fine. ICS on this device flies! Everything from the ui to the web browser is now hardware accelerated and extremely smooth. Thank you developers for bringing this to the rest of us. Oh, about forgot, make sure you are running a vivid before you try this. I also used WC recovery to flash this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] reckless_sk8r:
Amazing stuff here! Thanks to Pirateghost & BaskinBrandon. :) I got this up and running first try thanks to thecubed's alternative method. :D

I'm still getting used to this since it's the first ICS rom I've played with/used, but I have one question.

How do you edit the lockscreen shortcuts? I'm only able to find the settings to change the wallpaper for it. Thanks in advance. :rolleyes:

Nevermind, I just realized the same shortcuts you have on the homescreen are the one's on the lockscreen. Sorry, didn't think that through.. ._.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kozmikkick:
Might want to look at another ics roms update script. I think some of the permissions are wrong or maybe just missing a couple.

Currently downloading doesn't work from the web even if an app that uses the extension is installed. I remember this being a very early issue with the ics roms on the desire z and probably others. I think if I remember right it was due to permissions.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] carlosjcar:
No problem here

Thank You Guys for renewing my interest in this device I Have the skyrocket and I am sure I'll be using the vivid more now...

Now, since we have a new HBOOT will we be able to S-off?

Thank you very much!!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] doktor buknasty:
Hey cyber, is the bindroid team thinking about making a rom for the vivid?

Pirate once again you come here and bring something for us vivid/holiday/velocity users. Thank you. Now I have to send you more monsters :p

Sent from my HTC Holiday
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
what permissions....thats a pretty broad field

i just downloaded an apk from xda, using the stock browser......
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jayv81:
If you don't have the email you can do the whole process again. That's what I had to do. But I saved the file this time around.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brwnohno:
The shortcuts for the lockscreen are the items you have set on the launcher bar. To change what displays on the lockscreen you have to change the items there. Hope that helps!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kozmikkick:
Not sure. It was one of that changes that need to be done with the update scripts for ics I think. Apk files probably will download since their a hardcoded extension in android. Try a PDF doc excel and I think I tried zip files too and they either don't download or they download as .bin files. Even with their associated app installed.

I'll dig through some old threads on the desire z forum to look up the fix.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
Psh, stock browser... We have ICS now! Chrome Beta!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
i just downloaded a .zip from here too.....the telstra_boot.zip from my rumraider page
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
That would be amazing. I hate that I can follow directions and not do something I dont know enough about... haha. Appreciate all the hard work you guys. Blows me away how quickly things like this come together
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
RUU download is going slooooooooow. still a couple hours left. after i get it i will verify it resets to factory ICS. if it does....we are all in for some ICS treats!

BTW, i already have deodex in the works for a new rom.....its coming along :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jayv81:
All I want is a debloated rom and working tether. Other than that this build is great.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jeremy b:
everything went great. But I had widgets and now I dont? and every time I back out of something the htc logo pops up is that normal
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] markjo:
Just installed the first time around and everything went perfectly using thecubed's instructions. Coming from stock/rooted ROM. Thanks a lot for all of the hard work.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
Ran a CIQ check on this ROM; thankfully, it's not on there.

Settings -> Develop option -> Don't keep activities should be UNCHECKED. That was what was happening for me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ebaul:
Bootloop

I'm getting bootloop. Right after the At&t logo begins to show, it reboots over and over.

I flashed the Hboot update

Flashed boot.img

Flashed CWM

Flashed rom

Did I not follow directions correctly?

Thanks
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] QLtnpapi:
Same here : /
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Absolutely amazing news!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] come at me bro:
try flashing the boot img again

grab the att boot img and drop it in the easy kernel flasher..from the superguide sticky
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] QLtnpapi:
which one??? ive flashed the one that is inside the rom itself but it still bootloops
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] anthromatt:
Start over, but this time when you flash PH39IMG.zip, let it update, reboot it, but don't pop the battery, it will reboot into HBOOT and update more files.

I had the same problem as you and it was because I was pulling the battery after applying the PH39IMG.zip, not knowing I needed to allow it to reboot and update more files.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:

same here, had a tiny anxiety attack cause the screen went black when i did mine last night. but it comes back and finishes updating.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randong:
should i wait to see if io monster and pg find a way to do this without the hboot update...or is that a lost cause at this point....i was at irc lastnite and the last thing io said was he might have figured it out...what do yall think?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] contactwajeeh:
Any update on the RUU PG. Also did you checked is it 4.0 or 3.6? Please share the details...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] fredy915:
Awesome can wait to try this out once I get my laptop back
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] KCutrer1:
It says 3.6 in the OP
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
I hope they find a solution, chances look slim though. :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] timmytim:
This update is a nice improvement over GB but man HTC REALLY dumbed it down. I cannot wait for a CM9 ROM.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randong:
do you want it so you can flash this update? i see that your on bell y cant you flash it? we were able to flash roms of diff models with the old hboot. y wouldnt it work the same? how does the hboot effect the phone or (rom) so that raiders and velocitys cant flash?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
For anyone wondering about performance, it is incredibly smooth because of all the hardware acceleration. Increasingly happy with performance, although like most of you I am anxious for a CM9 type build or even more so for a sense 4.0 build. We shall see
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] megatronisabeast:
I believe it is the radio, etc. that would not work for the other phones. This was an att release so they would not be able to make calls, other things.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
the RUU i have is for 3.26.502.52

the version that was released in the OTA was 3.26.502.54

checking it out now.

no go on my phone.

it wont downgrade
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Well not the greatest news ever
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] QLtnpapi:
thanx it worked after I installed the PH39IMG.zip it reboots the it loads up and finishes installing the rest of the files.

It works perfectly.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
RUU upload is complete.

it wont flash on my phone because i already have a newer firmware than it is looking for.

if anyone is willing to risk it....PM me. its just an RUU exe from HTC, i had nothing to do with building it. you need to understand the risks....since i cannot test for myself. most likely, with the way HTC does these if it doesnt work, it wont crash anything, but something could happen, you never know.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombie.raised:
I don't know how it affects but quite people tried and it failed and to flash this Rom we need new hboot....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] trell959:
PG you're just too cool ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] carlosjcar:
Time error

I having the annoying time error with this Rom, any one else?:mad:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randong:
i just tried to relock my bootloader while i was in hboot and it wouldnt let me go into recovery or reboot my phone it just kept going to the fastboot menu over and over

anybody know whats goin on here?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
after you relock your bootloader, what do you expect to happen? did you run the PH file?

also, it appears that the RUU i have contains the proper HBOOT (same as the one the OTA gave us, so the RUU might be good for us)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randong:
i figured that i would got back to my phone os and put my ph img on and my recovery and rom and reboot into hboot and let it do its deal with the ph and the fastboot my recovery and rom
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tacotino:
can i get some info about this update... i have a skyrocket and i was thinking of picking a Vivid.. but i'm not sure.. whats the kernel speed?? if it is 1.2 no big deal if the rom is fast.. the only thing i hated when i had my vivid was the lag. like when typing something or if you where jumping around with apps... i pretty muched loved everything else. also the lack of roms when i had it.. i was one of the first. but is this wroth the trade? i know this is the first step to better ROM's not saying this one is bad.. just more customized verisons... but i was wondering
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
after relocking bootloader you can boot back into the OS. if thats all you did, then there shouldnt be a problem

you should have had the PH file on the sdcard ready to install after relocking bootloader

dont get it.....if you have to ask us our opinions in the VIVID section...what do you think you are going to get answered with?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randong:
vivid with lag...iv never had this problem and iv tried to get it to.. but i do believe that the kernel is now up to 1.5 with this build..

and we just got this yesterday so time will tell..im sure we will have some cooked up soon

---------- Post added at 04:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

thats all i did was relock it and thats it...i ran the command and then tried to reboot...nogo tried to power down...nogo battery pull...no go only until i unlocked it did it roboot into the os and it erased everything
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
Kernel is at 1.2, but it flies on ICS. I know the lag you're talking about, sense gets bogged down pretty quick for me too, but not since this ICS update. It's flawless to the core. Just sold my gs2 on ebay, this ICS update made the decision so easy, as I prefer the hardware of the vivid. Oh and battery life is great with ICS so far, just a heads up
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
Can someone post screenies? I know there are some in the OP but would like to see some customization
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
here

screens

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tacotino:
Thanks!!! this is all i needed to know...

I'll make a trade, yeah i loved the hardware IMO the Gs2 skyrocket feels cheap.. and i hate the Over Sat screen... Vivid here i come!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
saweeeet!! yea, i got really sick of everything being so bright....and those cartoony icons everywhere. just ew. haha
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
Am I doing something wrong...I locked the bootloader, flashed the ph file and let it update twice but when I re unlock the loader and flash the recovery it tells me that the current version is older??? What am o doing wrong...please help

I'm getting my vivid right now, then home then ROM!!!!!

you're getting an error flashing the recovery.img? And your using fastboot?

Can u give me a link to the regular update please with out the root just the regular ota n ill download and install it :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
For the moment, there isn't a way I believe. They are working on an RUU, but nothing has come of it completely yet.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Brand New:
Someone should make a tutorial video.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
i understand you are anxious, but spamming, gimme a stock update thats not rooted, that i dont have to unlock my bootloader/root/etc....its getting annoying, man.

chill the hell out. when a way is available, rest assured you will see it on this very site....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ebaul:
This did the trick, many thanks!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
yes that is correct...don't know what i did wrong...now when i reboot it keeps me in the htc screen but i can boot in hboot however
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
you should be able to try all the steps in the OP over again if you can get to hboot
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
I have tried about three times :mad:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
you try both ways? The OP and the 3rd post?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
What recovery are you trying to flash?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
CWM 5.5.0.4
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
Did your Hboot update properly? What version is it showing? Have you tried redownloading the files in they didn't download all the way?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mrakifa:
Recovery

Which recovery do you suggest and can I have a direct link please?

---------- Post added at 07:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 PM ----------

I just flashed back to complete stock and gonna try the steps over again...keep you posted...thank you for your continued help

Hey guys what's the best way to ditch this damn bloatware
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] anthromatt:
I've just been freezing it with Titanium Backup. There are probably other options though...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] randong:
i would like to say thanks for your dedication on this and putting all your time and effort into our phones

:D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] threejs30:
wow, it was a task but worth it...

Well I finally managed to get it going but it took me awhile. Locking, flashing ,unlocking using the the cwm the cubbed put together and Rom from pirateghost went smooth but I was stuck at HTC boot screen. Flashed boot image from Rom and all is well. I like what I see so far it is really quick and fluid but I know what these guys come out with shortly will he so much better. Thanks guys for doing this so quick to give us a chance to use this. You all rock and can't wait to see what pirate and the cubbed do in the near future. I know wildchild is out there too amazing things coming from him I can only presume as well. Thx again guys...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Pirateghost:
i hear Rum Float is a good Bloat remover.......

jus sayin :D

keep your eyes open kiddies....something might pop up soon.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
avoid direct eye contact with said bloatware :-)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] anthromatt:
ha!

I guess now that I have gone back down this flashing and modding road, I may as well remove bloat. I switched my philosophy to "freeze-only" after being unable to install updates to my Motorola devices with the bloat gone. :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
+1 for using Titanium backup. I uninstall completely as opposed to freezing so I never have to look at them again.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] romeo0119:
Haven't got a chance to flash this yet but does mobile hotspot works without tethering plan?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tennockey:
doubtful, cause its just stock
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dusty2422:
No this is stock, it tells you to dial 611. I'm sure future ROMS will once the devs have time to do their magic tweaks.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] romeo0119:
Bummer...hope PG comes out with his own soon, I want to tether...lol
