[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
First things first, run the RUU to get the ICS hboot/ROM. You can find it here. Make sure you do the right ICS one for your carrier. Then go ahead and do steps 1 and 4 from the superguide. That will essentially give you the rooted stock ICS ROM. S-OFF is not absolutely necessary. All you need to do is manually flash the kernel before flashing the ROM EVERY time you want a new ROM. All S-OFF does is make you able to flash recovery and kernel from the recovery. So that means when you flash a ROM, it is automatically able to flash the kernel as well. I am still S-ON though, it just adds the small step of manually flashing the kernel. ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kurty007:
Why do I need to run the RUU?

I assume RUU gets me hboot access, official ICS (Android 4.0 or something) and HTC Sense 3.6? and step 4 gets basically gets root

Couldn't I just officially update the device OTA or with a connection, and then do something to get hboot, and then root?

Or do you think it would be much simpler to to run RUU?

So far, I have unlocked the bootloader via HTCdev (step 1) and have clockworkmod recovery which I got with the toolkit.

Also, when I hold volume down and power button, I believe it fastboots without giving me any options. I can only get to clockworkmod recovery and what I believe is hboot (where I can see whether or not the bootloader is unlocked or locked, S-ON or S-OFF, and get options for boot) by using the toolkit (or by typing in the adb commands).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
OTA, RUU, PH zip will all not work because you have an unlocked bootloader. Re-lock the bootloader first. The RUU is just about the easiest way to get stock ICS and it updates the HBOOT by itself. After the RUU, unlock the bootloader once again (step 1) and then perm root (step 4).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kurty007:
Thank you so much! I now have Android 4.0.3, HTC Sense 3.6, and root access :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jbplumbing.ca:
I have a rogers raider its updated to ics by ota then I unlocked bootloader. And used vivid all in one and have cwm recovery on my phone. I tried to perma root but it didn't stick because it was still stock Rom. So who can I use holics without s-off?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
If you want stock root then follow step 4 in the guide in my signature. To flash ROMs without S-OFF takes an extra step. Every time you want to flash a new ROM, you need to flash the matching kernel beforehand. Use the guide in my signature to learn how to flash a kernel.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jbplumbing.ca:
4) Perm-Root your device (WildChild)

- Turn off your phone, turn it back on my holding power + volume down

- Use the volume rocker and power button to select fastboot

- Connect your phone to your PC

- Inside the WCXJB ROOT PACK, click shift + right click and select "Open command window here"

- Enter in these commands without the quotes

- "fastboot flash recovery wcxrecovery.img"

- Now you can boot up your phone

- Download and put Vivid_CWM_Root_VER2 zip file on root of internal sdcard (aka NOT in any folders)

- Boot into H-Boot like you did before (turn off phone, turn back on holding power + vol down), and use the volume rockers to go to "recovery" and press the power button to select it

- Select "install zip from sdcard"

- Select the VIVID_CWM_ROOT_VER2.zip through recovery and then reboot your phone

- You are now rooted and I recommend flashing a matching kernel + ROM for root to stick

So this will give me stock rogers Rom but rooted? And can I just flash VIVID_CWM_ROOT_VER2.ZIP FROM recovery because I already have custom recovery?

Or do I still need to go through the steps. Thanks for your patience.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Yea, pretty much all you need to do is flash that VIVID_CWM_ROOT zip in recovery and it should yield root if you are on the stock ROM with unlocked bootloader. If it doesn't give root the first time, try flashing it a couple more times.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kurty007:
Recovery

I seem to have a problem getting into recovery (CWM). Whenever I turn my device off and try to turn it back on by holding power and volume down, it fastboots instantly when I let go without giving me any options. I have downloaded Rom Manager flashed CWM but when I tried to reboot into recovery, it gets stuck at the HTC sign. The only way I had accessed bootloader or recovery early was thanks to the toolkit. Any way I can fix this so I can go to recovery anytime I want without connecting to PC?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Sounds like an odd issue. I've been using WCX recovery ever since it came out with zero issues. Maybe try flashing that one. (If you do, flash it two or three times so it gets rid of cwm).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jbplumbing.ca:
Will Root stick with the stock rom or do I have to flash custom for root to stick?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Should stick after flashing that zip.

---------- Post added at 12:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 AM ----------

Hm... I've been hearing odd things happening with that recovery. Does your PC still recognize your phone? If it does, then you should be alright. I would suggest re-locking the bootloader and running the stock ICS RUU for your carrier (this is all in my guide titled "back to stock"). After that run steps 1 and 4 from my guide if all you want is stock root. Basically all it is is unlock bootloader > flash WCX recovery > perm root.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
I have also have problem with CWM recovery. I used a different recovery method (using slapshot's sticky).

It seems more stable and it didn't give me CWM re-looping problem.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kurty007:
So did you just flash the WCXJB ROOT PACK over CWM to fix the problems? or did you have to re-install stock using the RUU and start over?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Cleanest way would be start over with relock bootloader, RUU, then steps 1 and 4 from my guide if you don't need s off. You could try just flashing over WCX recovery though, but it probably won't clean all the old stuff out from CWM.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kurty007:
Thank you so much!! It fixed all the problems and it now works perfectly :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Glad it all worked out. :D

My HTC raider is from Rogers and is S-on. I flash custom ROM on it but it is 2.3.6 vision. I want update to higher version of Android such as 4.0. So i need relock the bootloader but problem is I couldn't find the stock rogers' ROM. The link you post doesn't work anymore.

Is there somewhere I can download one? Thank you very much.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tenacious--M:
I just flashed to ICS...went off without a hitch. However my Saurom rom (GB) benchmarked around 3800 on Quadrant. Now on ICS I'm at 2900.

What the advantage of ICS if its slower? Or does that not tell the whole story?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ph0n3D0rk:
Were you overclocked?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] joelrwise:
When i had my G2X, i was on ICS the majority of the time, and i had to flash it back to froyo before i sold it, and i noticed that it was ridiculously faster than ICS. I think ICS is more about the looks than the performance, at least until Jellybean comes. I'm using King Kang at the moment and i have to say its by far the best rom i've tried for the note so far.

Quadrants scores don't mean jack

I got a score of 6000+

Its easy to trick quadrant and its not reliable

In all honesty ICS feels smoother and snappier than GB and I go by how it feels

I have zero lag and its really fast

Don't rely too much on quadrant
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
I DO agree with you on not relying on quadrant scores as theyre not based on real life usage. HOWEVER...to claim a score of 6000+ on a Quadrant test is exaggerating. If it was on Antutu then thats believable as they base the numbers off of different things. Nevertheless...ICS "feels" much faster performance wise.

You can lol

Just keep running quadrant over and over

One of the times I got a little over 600

Idk how it works or how it scored but I've seen scores over 6000+ on other phones

Not bashing or offending

But back to the subject ICS is better much better than GB and if anything I'd having any problems with ICS wipe data and factory reset in recovery and flash again because its really really good

Are you using the USB cable that came with the phone? Try using a different cable, or a different USB port on the computer, or even a different computer to see if the problem still occurs.

This sounds like the kind of problem that occurs when you use a bad USB cable.

Download TWRP recovery from this thread

Download moto-fastboot-win32.zip from this thread

Unzip them both to the same folder on your computer (eg.: c:\fastboot).

Make sure all files are in the same folder: moto-fastboot, the ADB DLL files and recovery.img

Open a command prompt window pointing to that folder (tip: hold shift on the keyboard, right click on the folder and select "open command window here")

Connect yout atrix to your pc via USB and boot your atrix into fastboot mode (when the phone is off, keep the VOL - button pressed and press the power button. When Fastboot appears, press VOL +)

Now issue type these commands into the command prompt:

moto-fastboot erase recovery

moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

after it's done, type

moto-fastboot reboot

After that you should be able to boot into TWRP recovery. Cheers!

Hi,

I'm using sensation xe ICS (S-OFF, custom recovery 4ext)

I believe that my phone is having hardware issue that I'm thinking to send it back for repair.

It happened 1 day ago that my phone freezes 4 times in 1 days (It was completely fine since I flashed to ICS). My wifi starts unable to switch on with 'Turning Wi-Fi on' appears but nothing happens. I tried to do factory reset but doesn't help. I searched some threads that they say it might be hardware problem.

I am trying to follow the instruction from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 (I'm not sure if this method is fine for my phone) to S-ON my phone so that I can get my warranty back. But I am stuck trying to reflash a official rom that my pc cannot detect my phone.

But the installer says that unable to detect my phone and please make sure my phone is connected to pc using usb. But my phone already connected in charge only mode.

Something more to add.

I just remembered that I accepted an update few days ago (alert pop up in phone). and my ICS is now 3.33 not 3.32.

I am trying to flash my phone back to 3.32 to see if problem still exists. But I am not sure how I can flash through sd card, my hboot now is 1.27, I have seen somewhere says that 1.27 is different

Lately I've been seeing a few posts from non english speaking members who try to write in english or others who use the google translator. Sometimes it becomes difficult to understand what they are trying to say. I have found that the bing translator is a much better engine than google. Well, at least for the languages I speak. If others could double check with their own languages it would be nifty and thus, minimizing possible such and such - you get the point - due to a language barrier.

While my personal rate for google would be 6/10 I would give bing 8/10 - even maybe 9/10 for the accuracy of the translation.

Edit: I'll update the OP as reports come in stating which translation engine is better with which languages. I will trust that each person is fluent in both languages when reporting.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for the effectiveness of such reports nor the accuracy of the engines. If hell breaks loose because the wrong demon was invoked or someone ordered take out and the engine said nuclear strike, well, we will won't be around to complain.

As I mentioned, for the languages I speak which are English and Spanish. My German isn't good enough to make that assesment.

If you would be kind enough to edit your post and include which are the languages you are fluent in so we can know which engine is better with which languages.

The idea behind this is to determine which engines translate with the minimum amount of mistakes as to help the non english speakers use that engine. So that when they need help or tell us something it will be easier to understand and thus, minimizing the language barrier - which could result if such were not the case, a misunderstanding.
