[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
Yesterday, I installed the lastest Holiday CM10 Nightly on my HTC Vivid. Well, the instructional I followed left out a few crucial steps (IE didn't say to be in s-off, didn't mention nandroid backup) but I did a clockworkmod carbon backup, but that was just my apps. Well, I installed it on my phone, and now, when I power up my phone, it gets stuck on the cyanogenmod loading screen. I heard that usually takes a while with the new soft boot, but the phone sat there like that for literally 5 or 6 hours. Does anyone know how I can remove the ROM or flash my phone back to how it was before I installed it from the recovery menu? Cuz, obviously I can't power my phone up to put a stock ROM on the SD card. Any help would be much appreciated.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
It sounds like you're running on CWM recovery and you are S-ON. It is recommended that you use TWRP or WCX, not CWM. Also when you install any ROM when you are S-ON, you are supposed to fastboot flash boot boot.img, the boot.img is found in the zip file of the rom.

If you really want to go back to stock, do the following:

1. Boot into fastboot

2. Connect your device to your computer

I'm assuming you have fastboot and adb setup on your computer

3. Run the following command in a command prompt

fastboot oem lock

4. Now run RUU

If you need any help, just tell me!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
Ok, I'm gonna give it a try. Will that re-lock my bootloader and unroot my phone as well? or will i still be unlocked and rooted?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
It will change everything back to stock, i.e. relocked bootloader, unrooted. The only thing is it would state that you're RELOCKED in the bootloader. I don't know how to change that.

Are you S-ON or S-OFF? There is an addition to the procedure if you are S-OFF.

Also, I recommend running the RUU available on the HTC website as its the most recent.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
I'm S-ON
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
You should be good to go with those procedures then. Tell me if you need anything.

I usually do those procedures when I want to go back to stock and everything works well.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
ok. thanks man. I'm downloading the RUU now. I'll let you know how everything goes once I'm done.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
ok, in the command prompt, i typed "fastboot ruu" (no quotes) and i got this big ol list of options...which do i choose?

c:\Android>fastboot RUU

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
My bad, I didn't explain the RUU portion. Are you At&t?

If you are At&t, download the following:

http://dl3.htc.com/application/htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_R23_US.exe

Then, boot into fastboot, connect your phone, wait until its recognized, then run the file you downloaded as administrator.

If you are not At&t, tell me what's your carrier and I can see what I can do?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
ok. its downloading now. ill update as needed, or if i have any further questions. and again, thank you for the help thus far. i seriously appreciate it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
No problem! Just click the Thanks Button, I would really appreciate it!:o

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:55 PM ----------

Keep me up to date if u need anything else!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
thanked.

the RUU is is done now. whats the command prompt to run as administrator?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
Just right click on the file and choose run as administrator.

In this step, you shouldn't be using command prompt at all!

After the file is ran, it should tell you the steps on-screen. Just click next, update my rom (or whatever it says), then you should see you're device rebooting and the software will tell you to wait for a bit. When its all done, you'll be back in stock with locked bootloader, etc.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
much thanks. i really appreciate the help. will update as needed.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
much much much much much thanks friend. i wish i could thank you a thousand times on here, its well in order. everything worked fine and my phone is back. now is there any way by any chance you could guide me through how to properly install CM10 after im unlocked and rooted again?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
Ya no problem. I could post all my instructions tomorrow as now I am busy.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] br1an:
Looks like you just didn't flash the boot.img part.

I had the similar problem.

Just make sure you have the correct version of gapps too.

It's rather easy, and oh yea heads up on the bad call volumes.:eek:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
Assuming he did and he also restarted his phone, since it was CWM recovery it won't boot up on the second restart because of partition issues caused by CWM.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
yea. i read somewhere that you have to flash the boot.img through fastboot if youre S-ON, but how do i do that? sorry for the lack of knowledge, im new to this whole modding thing.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] br1an:
Use the http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1498003

All in one tool kit. It's simple and straight forward.

unzip the zipped file (CM10) image and inside you should find the boot.img copy that and place it in the location where the guide says "kernel"

Make sure you are in bootloader. You know the screen with the white background, with usb connected and you should see "fastboot usb"

Flash the kernel, then reboot and you are good to go.

---------- Post added at 09:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 AM ----------

You probably have the phone as S-ON, if you did the wire trick to unlock the phone then you are S-OFF. If you do not know what I am taking about then your probably S-ON.

The status can also be seen at the boot loader screen - top left corner.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wolfhawke:
yup...

Yeah, CWM has been nothing but trouble, I strongly suggest you get twrp 2.4.4.0 and rename the end file something like this "TWRPrecov.img" or something like that, then if S-ON do this via fastboot:

'fastboot flash recovery TWRPrecov.img'

I still think if you can handle doing S-Off, (and Hassoon makes a pretty fool proof kit btw) do it. it makes flashing ROMs and updates so much easier.

PACMan is a good 4.1 rom to try, and I've been keeping an eye on Borked. The call volume thing is easily bypassed if you wear a bluetooth headset during the day (though the battery life suffers greatly). Just things to think about!:D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ipagan10:
Use another recovery except CWM because it has problems with this phone and even if you flash the boot.img first, you'll get what you have now. Try twrp or wcx and be carefull with twrp since some versions of it don't play well with this phone. After you flash the boot.img and the rom, make sure you have the correct version of gapps for that rom because if you flash the wrong one, your phone will either be extremely unstable and things like wifi and bluetooth won't work or the phone won't boot at all. If you have trouble with fastboot try using Hanson's all in one toolkit in the dev section and you'll avoid all of that. Oh and just in case to flash a recovery/ boot via fastboot do:

cd c:\Android (or the folder where you have fastboot and adb)

fastboot flash boot boot.img

And for recovery

fastboot flash recovery ( recovery name).img

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------

Yes but that depends the kernel you use cuz there are some people who have relatively good in call volume just not extremely loud like the stock rom, but hopefully in the next build that problem will be fixed.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
I don't think he knows specific command prompt commands I.e. flashing kernel.

After u unlock the bootloader, boot into fastboot. To flash a recovery, cd into the location of the recovery then while ur phone is connected, type the following and enter:

Fastboot flash recovery <file name>.IMG

If you remain s-on, after flashing the recovery and Rom, unzip the Rom on ur.computer. There should be a boot.IMG file in there. To flash the kernel, cd into the unzipped folder using command prompt. Boot your phone into fastboot, and type in the following:

Fastboot flash boot boot.IMG

Your phone should reboot and boot up normally.

If you need any help just give us a heads up!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ipagan10:
Yeah you're right but I think his problem was with the recovery CWMR is really screwing things up with this phone and even if he does all of that I don't think the rom will boot cuz it won't flash right.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
When I typed my last comment I didn't notice urs.

I recommended twrp or wcx. Cwm is trash.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
No... its not trash... its just improperly compiled for our phones
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] firestalker92:
yea. i ran through everything and looked. im running wcx recovery. and mubby, i actually figured out how to flas the ,img the right way. im running cm10 now. big thanks to everybody for all yalls help.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zippox180:
I hate how people assume that just cause I doesn't work on our phones its garbage I've been using it forever on my captivate and had zero issues
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Ghitim:
agreed, i've actually been using CWM with this phone since i started using it and i've never had any problems. switched to TWRP 2.4.2.0 because i wanted a touch interface and it works great too (though i cant find a place to wipe battery status with it...)

p.s. 2.4.3.0 & 2.4.4.0 have known issues
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mubby93:
I agree that cwm used to be good. Actually I never used anything but cwm. Nowadays, IMO there are better recoveries!

long boot or bootloop?

cwm 5.0.2.8

thirty minutes of startup but is not party ...
[Wildfire Android Development] LaweK:
hmmm i dont have any problem with boot. im waiting 5-10 minutes for boot :D

I use cwm 4
[Wildfire Android Development] GlennBrownie:
are you using Custom MTD?

Connect it to pc and run cmd " adb shell busybox df -h " if your /system is REALLY full, like 40kb free you might not have performed a FULL rom flash so it will bootloop..
[Wildfire Android Development] infernale:
I tried installing with and without mtd partition, now I try with cwm 4 and hope for the best
[Wildfire Android Development] infernale:
finally with cwm v4 started,

three small bugs .... I think:

1) missing key "emergency call" screen password simcard

2) each time and every time you install applications "application settings hwa has been locked in an unusual way"

3) gallery does not work well

4)resize lockscreen

......anyway good job, nice and smooth ....

...please, which is better ..... cwm v4 or v5??
[Wildfire Android Development] Gargoyles:
cmw 4 is more better for me. And supported Aroma :p

[Wildfire Android Development] nrjwgh:
Re: [ROM][PORT][4.0.4]TouchWizz 5.0 v.1 by LaweK

Well, I guess I've found a new daily driver!!

This rom is just perfect. Touchwiz ui provides the much required break from the nauseating stock-ics look.

Just a few personal suggestions for the next build :

- use the resized/optimized camera libs ( by akulgupta100 )

- fix auto brightness and add torch functionality.

- remove (mostly) unused system apps like ics gallery,live wallpapers,text to speech engine,etc.

- add ringtones/system media of stock ics.(gotta love 'em! )

- dialer needs a tiny bit resizing.

- add v6 supercharger script and others, if any.

- I'm experiencing a scrolling lag sometimes. Not sure if others are.

I'll report battery life after a few cycles but it seems pretty solid.

That said, thanks a lot laweK for bringing a beautiful, near-perfect rom to wildfire. :) :)

Hi Lawek

Today i installed your rom without any problem , but for me this rom was a bit lagy and finally after 3 hours of playing with it , i was forced to return to aokp light v5 which is so smoother for me .

your rom is good and i'm sure in higher versions will be even better .

Go on good works ! :good:

Hi there,

I am really impressed by that ROM. By far the best CM9 I have run so far. But:

- Please add GoogleBackupTransport.apk, CalerndarProvider.apk and GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk. Otherwise the automatic backup feature and the calendar sync would never work.

- Is SuperCharger V6 included to speed-up the ROM?

- Why is torch.apk missing but alogcat included?

- Anyone else having the problem that there is no flash for the camera?

- To speed-up the device including ADW Launcher instead of Apex?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] koralis:
I';m using Goodness 9.0.4 and used one of its themes. Like most of what it did, but one thing that happened is that the email app (not the widget portion.. that stayed black on white.. and email, not gmail) got modded to a fairly ugly vibrant-blue/black with Yellow Bold text for unread messages. I like most everything else the theme did so am reluctant to swap it out.

Any ideas for replacing that particular application with one that's a little more... understated? :fingers-crossed:

If its a theme that you flashed, then yes, you can grab the email apk from another rom (or from the original goodness rom) and replace the current one you have by putting the new one in /system/app, wipe cache and dalvik (in recovery) and fix permissions and reboot
