Seriously....? this is been beat to death already... and the thread isnt that long so you have no excuse for not reading... most people on the vivid are "s-on" which means you need to flash the boot.img with fastboot or something similar. it wont flash in recovery... THIS NEEDS TO BE FLASHED EVERY DAMN TIME GUYS JEEESH i dont know where any of you have been.. but thinking that you can just flash a rom over a older boot.img and not update the boot.img and see no issues is beyond me...maybe thats why this device has such a bad rep for being buggy. because all of you flash the boot.img once and forget about it... the boot.img is not a STATIC thing... it changes a lot... it has all the scripts that boot the phone... and the kernel...and the wifi..bottom line you dont flash the boot.img you are ASKING FOR TROUBLE. i'm just gonna start ignoring people who i know didnt flash the boot.img because it seems i can say it til i'm blue in the face....i'm just going to link people to this post...this should honestly be a sticky in this thread,,,the amount of people i see having issues because they didnt know to flash the updated boot.img is staggering....everyone should read this... it will probably cut the replies in half....

BOTTOM LINE - YOUR WIFI DOESNT WORK = FLASH THE BOOT.IMG, = YOUR BLUETOOH DOESNT WORK = FLASH BOOT.IMG, YOUR PHONE NO LONGER GETS YOU A BEER = FLASH THE BOOT.IMG

sorry i just really want people to see this
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] plasticbiker:
You know that no one reads the destructions...

I saw one ROM for the Vivid that had a popup after you flashed the ROM that instructed you to fastboot the boot.img. It even dropped the boot.img into the sdcard0 base dir for you. Doesn't guarantee that they would read it, but it might help.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] FordNate:
Wait... this phone can grab me a beer as well? Sweet. Hey on this phone (Sorry I'm running a Dinc2 Slim rommed by Chilibean) is it possible for police to but anything on it to track it once arrested? Yeah its my girls phone and well she went away last night n of course the pigs went through her phone. I was gonna flash either CM10.1.2 or AOKP on hers while shes away n if they put a tracker program would that take it away? Or guide me where i need to look up that info. Much respect to you Devs here, much like ours over on Incredible 2, that breathe new life into our old "forgotten" phones.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] phrotac:
First, why would the police want to track her phone? Second, I think that would be illegal without a court order. Third, if you flash it then any app they "allegedly" installed would be gone. And last but not least, if they did install such an app and then came to confiscate the phone they would incriminate themselves if no court order were given, plus, how would they find it once it were flashed?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] FordNate:
We be crazy out here in Sacramento. I got pulled over in front of my house and they asked for her ID???? yeah something wrong with that right? She was on probation as well. They did have a laptop out n i think at one time had it hooked up to it )sorry i was in cuffs in the back of the car as well n their exploder blocked the view. Maybe track to see if shes a hardcore dealer (no shes not btw)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] phrotac:
A factory restore would also remove any installed apps. I just can't think of a reason for them to go through her phone. I believe that would be an invasion of privacy (and highly illegal) without a court order.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] JimiGEE:
No offense but this is a development forum not a personal diary. But best of luck to ya though!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] FordNate:
And if you read the first post i made it had a lot to do with development of both this ROM and the this phones hardware and software. Anywho Thank you [MENTION=1623203]phrotac[/MENTION] for the advise and clearing up the development (as well as cautious/concern) side of things
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] plasticbiker:
If the police wanted to track your phone, they don't need to put anything on your phone. It's called e-911 and it's done from the towers. So put your tinfoil hat back on, ditch your phone, credit cards, move out to the sticks and get off your computer because the man is always going to find you.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] JimiGEE:
I wish there was a like or a fist bump option on here
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] plasticbiker:
Graphics Bug

I've noticed some miner video studder/glitching with the new Google Maps apps. It's not nearly as bad as Trapster, but I seems to be similar in nature.

Update:

I guess it would help if I mentioned I'm on the 07/15 version w/ S-ON and yes I flashed my boot.img and the kernel version is displaying correctly :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
Thats just the new Google maps. Not the rom
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] FordNate:
how'd you know about my hat?

Thanx for the info about the e-911 thing.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
yeah the maps gliching happens with all msm8660 roms i'm aware of... i haven't tried it on my s4 as i havent got a update notification and figured why fix what isnt broken, ya know...my guess is its the app..or its that same issue that google chrome had for a long time with glitches etc.....not really anything on rom side that can be done i dont think
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kkruglov:
one or two times (week ago) for new maps i enabled "full gpu rendering" and "disable soft screen compositing" (developer options), so full gpu render fixes this glitches..

don't know what is going on with it now.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
hey guys look in the build prop....is there a line that says something like composition.type=dyn? set it to gpu...or the other way around... there are 3 settings.... dyn mdp and gpu....see if it makes any difference with maps
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
I don't see that kind of line in the build.prop
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] plasticbiker:
I did a search of the entire directory and could not find any text file with the word 'composition' in it. Is this something we could just add to the /system/build.prop?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
Its a little more then just composition . I'll look it up in a few. When its not there at all it means your using the GPU setting basically so we'll try MDP or dyn. Feel free to Google it I think its debug.composition.type=dyn but it might have to. before debug
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
new build posted please read the op for change log AND IF YOU ARE UPDATING AND ARE S-ON OR DO NOT KNOW IF YOU ARE S-ON PLEASE FLASH YOUR BOOT.IMG OR I WILL NOT PROVIDE SUPPORT
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
I flashed the boot.IMG, but it looks like the cellular network can't connect to Google services, I can make calls and the data works but the icon remains gray and don't show how many signal bars I have when in that state of not connected to Google services. The WiFi is showing blue as expected.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] :
s

Not having this problem. Everything is working normal.

allow me to retract the above statement... SMS can't send, double checked APN and they are fine and I have data... going to reboot & see what happens

Update: Reboot fixed it
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dust906:
i have a problem , and have flashed the boot.img plenty of times

the network icon will not change and give me bars !!! connects to service , but i got no bars !!!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Same
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
flash a different radio maybe? dont know of anyone else with these issues... on multiple roms too..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
are you guys modifying your build prop in any way there is a line in there that has to do with signal icon...do you actually have service but no icons? "no bars" i mean come on guys....i need more info
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dust906:
i reflashed to the 15th rom and boot.img and now i get my bars back......

also i could not connect to google services , but i could browse some apps like facebook

going to try a reset , cause now i can't get the play store to work at all

*update , i completely wiped and reflashed the newest rom with boot.img and i still get no bars

changes from 3g to HSPA...... but no service bars even if i cycle data , airplane mode ...

and can anyone confirm that LTE works on this rom on Att ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
Yes, LTE definitely works and I don't not have the problem with signal bars you are describing. Also, I should note that I don't have any of the other issues you discussed. I didn't do a full wipe just upgraded from 7/15 build and wiped dalvik and cache
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] :
[MENTION=4799701]pitpit24[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2663124]dust906[/MENTION] you two both S-On ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
If s-on install flash image gui from play store and use that to flash boot.img before entering recovery to flash ROM and Gapps. The app works perfectly, I've been flashing roms this way for over a year.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
I dont know where to get another radio file.

I didn't modify the build.prop.

I have service but the icon is gray completely, not telling how many bars I get.

What should be modified? I want to test it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Change to the pta APN...

See above...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
I'm on bell.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
here is a screenshot of how it looks.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] sdotkdot:
That used to happen to me after every reboot back on cm10 but hasn't happened to me at all on this. If I toggled WiFi on and then back off (or vice versa, depending on which state it was in at the time) it would always fix it for me. Worth a shot...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Even a clean install won't fix it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] sdotkdot:
Lol never said that it would. I was only telling you my experience with toggling the WiFi on & off with cm10. My signal bars show properly on this rom so I'm not sure how to help you. Sorry man
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
I don't said you said it would lol. Only telling that clean install don't fix the problem, to help investigate.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
There is a chance that your problem is related to an issue with the sim itself do you have access to another sim card (friend, relative, whatever) to try in your phone. I had a similar issue a couple of years ago with a Samsung phone and ended up needing a new sim card. Worth a try...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Magically i now have the signal bars back. After the whole day without them, it fixed itself... Cool!

Update: its gray again...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kkruglov:
at mine its gray for two days, after i installed PAC rom, have no idea why (now i'm on cm10.1, but nothing changed).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
for people with the signal issues. Try turning airplane mode on and off . That worked for me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Sorry, I tried it 100 times and it don't work for me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
I replies to you earlier stating it could be a sim related issue, do you have access to another sim that you can try in your phone? Worst case scenario it isn't the problem but at least it would eliminate one more possible cause.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] FFXTDS:
I have the same problem on PAC ROM

I can still send and receive text and calls
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
the signal bar issue must be you guys.. like an APN not being set or something. i'd check that. reinstall gapps.. if not dont worry about it. it works. it probably is your cellular network being screwy
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
here is a cm10.2 test build... this is untested as billibox fell asleep lol... so let me know if it boots

FLASH THE FRIGGIN BOOT.IMG

http://d-h.st/uJh
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
I installed it and it reboots to recovery instead of booting up... This is weird.

Here's the proof I flash boot.IMG, it sticked through restore.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dust906:
i found turning wifi on and off would bring back my bars...

still couldn't get a LTE connection.... would it say LTE at the top ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
hmmm thats really odd. i dont know what would trigger it to boot to recovery. you would think it would just boot loop
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Don't I need a new gapps, built for android 4.3? But its not available yet...

And cyanogenmod said not to try building it for now as bugs like this are expected.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
It says 4g for LTE
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
if you you go read cms google + you will see that its okay to start building even though it was before then.. go look on gerrit. people are submitting patches... how the hell is it suppose to get working if no one starts building and submitting patches

4.3 is out its been out for 2 days.

google is your friend: here is the gapps you need: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2378992

although that is the least of my concerns why not see if it boots first

and that "recovery booting" bug isnt cuz of cm10.2 its probably because we are still using the prebuilt init binary from 10.1 if someone else can confirm this i'll build a new boot.img but i'm not going by one report and neither should you guys
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kkruglov:
i will test it in 20 minutes.

up, cant flash boot.img today, some problems with new windows and adb drivers..

;(

without flashing boot.img from archive, it just bootloops. (cwx recovery)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
I was up till 5am and the build finished at 6 :P couldnt wait 3 hours for me to wake up! hahahaha
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] frankieGom:
Same here. I wiped, installed cm10.2, and rebooted straight to TWRP. Did it twice to be sure too (and no, I did not flash boot.img, but I'm s-off. If you want me to flash it anyway, just ask)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
yeah that no booting issue is confirmed. there are some ramdisk changes.... we're working on it now
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] WildfireDEV:
I am wiling to test. Let's do this.

There seems to be some missing (important) repo's

repo init -u git://github.com/Team-Hydra/android.git -b cm-10.1

repo sync

most of it downloads, but getting these errors:

fatal: remote error: Repository not found.

fatal: remote error: Repository not found.

fatal: remote error: Repository not found.

fatal: remote error: Repository not found.

error: Cannot fetch Team-Hydra/android_kernel_htc_holiday

error: Cannot fetch Team-Hydra/android_kernel_htc_pyramid-sultan

I'm using a holiday (vivid) so this seems like it would be a big problem.

Is there a different repo I should use for this build?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] WildfireDEV:
Are u sure because I just synced the CM 10.2 source using the Team Hydra repo last night and it went fine.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] detain:
Yeah I See CM10.2 is doing a repo sync fine, but 10.1 (which is what this thread is for) is giving the missing repo error.

Looking on the github/team-hydra repos I dont see a android_kernel_htc_holiday but I do see a android_kernel_htc_msm8660 and android_kernel_htc_msm8969 should it be trying to load one of these repos instead ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jpcdeux:
Sound still jacked on this?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] WildfireDEV:
If you mean the call volume being low then yes it still exists and could exist forever.

**Press the thanks button if I have helped you.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] theslam08:
The speaker volume all around for CM10.1 could be increased, but its not unbearable. Just say what to the other person a few times, then they just talk louder.

Its really the only problem with these ROMS, and to not use them just because of that is silly. Just tell the other person to speak up a little (I can hear them), and then you can enjoy the amazing new ROM. (although, PS. you might want to try the build just before the 23rd, as for me the 23rd build wouldn't stay running for more then 5 min, it would just keep soft rebooting constantly. though the build before was nice and stable).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jpcdeux:
Does CM10 have it?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] detain:
Can you include the steps starting with the repo init to get / build this?

Edit :nevermind i forgot to extract the proprietary stuff
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] theslam08:
Yes unfortunately
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Shajoe:
everytime i try to flash the rom it fails , i used fastboot flash to boot.img and i flashed the gapps and everything works but when i flash the rom it says it failed. I have s-on.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] detain:
I have a missing /system/init when running extract-files.sh during the build process.

There is an /init file , and i copied that to /system to satisfy the extract-files.sh script when it runs.

Does anyone know if this is the proper solution to this problem? Before doing this i tried doing an adb pull /init but it gave a permission denied error so i assume it just wont let you do that (which lead to copying it to /system first, which also makes the script run w/out errors)

---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------

My phone lacked the a300_pfp.fw and a300_pm4.fw in /etc/firmware which are needed by extract-files.sh during the build process.

I was able to find the files in https://github.com/h8rift/android_vendor_htc_holiday.git and just copied them to my vendor/htc/holiday/proprietary/etc/firmware directory and it seems to be working.

Is this normal to be lacking these files?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Shajoe:
I think my phone is now bricked...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
We're going to need more info than that. What exactly happened?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
oh sorry about that... i dleted a couple repos when getting things going for 10.2 and forgot to update the default manifest for 10.1... we dont use the repos its complaing about anymore so i deleted them...i'll fix it tonight

Whoa man...80% of these are request that should be posted on the Cyanogen forums... i'm not CM i dont make it.. i cant do all those things you wont all by myself.. as for the camera and no 16:9 its just how it is in 10.1 its how it is on my sensation glacier and my s4 with offical nightly its like it in 10.2 as well. CM is working on a full in house camera app called focal...i'm sure that will have it... all the other stuff bring to their forum for requests....and the signal bar.... only thing i can think of is the sim? or gapps? are you on the 0301 gapps? if not i guess it could be the build. cm did do some tweaks to the signal indocator but i would think everyone would have the issue then

typeo on my part... dont worry about extracting those..you already have all the vendor files in vendor/htc/holiday.. (its part of our repos) i need to update that script...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Its not the Sim causing the signal bars issue, when I go back to the July 15th build, I have my signal bars again, so its something with the build from 23rd. It looks like after almost 2 days without rebooting the phone, the bars are back, but I missed batteries so my phone turned off and no bars again... So I use 15th build, I need to know if it catches the signal well or not as we have bad coverage here.

I'm on the gapps posted in the op.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] phez:
+1. Have the same issue.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
It appears that the signal bar issue is on 3g or H...

Its not reading right on my phone as well... But its a minor bug at best... So not worth complaining about IMHO
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
This is really an oddball issue, I have been running the 7/23 build with no signal bar issues at all. Is this issue cropping up for most people or is it limited to just a few
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] sunseb:
I've had periods where I have no signal bars when there was a connection but I assumed it was just a weak signal. Running the most recent PAC build and kernel with no UV.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
This may seem an odd question but what rom are you currently running? Also, have you had success flashing any of the other 4.2 roms?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Shajoe:
I was running stock i just rooted it and went directly to this rom. I have rooted and used other roms before so i understand how it works.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
The answer to this question could mean all the difference, are you on stock rooted gingerbread or ice cream sandwich? If gingerbread you will actually need to upgrade to the ICS hboot before you will be able to flash this or any other jellybean ROM. If you are already on ICS humor me and try to flash CM10 and let's see if that boots for you. Once you have successfully done that try again with CM10.1

Edit: thought of one other factor that could be the problem. Which recovery ate you running? TWRP and WCX seem to be the only ones that function properly
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] WildfireDEV:
Seeing that I have seen CM10.2 discussion here I will post here. Well I finally managed to compile CM10.2 successfully for the phone but when I flash it. It gets stuck on the white HTC screen and also it doesn't reboot into recovery. Just wanted to inform you guys.

**Press the thanks button if I have helped you.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] theslam08:
Its known it wont boot:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] KarlKognition:
Hi, I'd like to thank the OP for such a smooth and stable ROM. Only bug I have, as documented http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2373250 , is that I get incorrect reception displayed, and the remote party in calls receive severe echo (I've seen all the current work arounds to do with volume). Since this is across all these ROMs there is probably been a legacy bug from shared code.

Also, could it be done that another thread for the CM 10.2 development be made, please? I come to this thread for info on the ROM in the OP.

Hey guys, I'm getting terrible battery life with this...I was wondering if there were any compatible kernels that allowed undervolting. If any one know of any could you post or message me a link please? Thanks!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] pitpit24:
Set minimum CPU speed to 192 MHz, they default it to 384 because it seems it cause soft reboots on some devices but I never seen this problem.

Set e/s clock to badass as well.

This kernel is already undervolted.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Qualcomm and the Code Aurora Forums say do not use 192 MHz...

And well... They built the chip ;)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
I've used 192mhz on multiple phones and always used it on this one without problems.. and I have a personal kernel that is undervolted to crazy values. you do realize htc is sorta against the whole idea of "rooting" and "unlocking" your phone :P would you not do that?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] albinoman887:
this is 100% correct. 192 isnt even a valid freq for the chip...honestly i should remove the freq step.
