Hi and welcome to xda!
First thing's first: Are you rooted yet? You will be limited in what you can do until you root.
Here is a step by step guide to rooting 2.1.
Here is the board with all of the Hero ROM's.
It may appear daunting at first, but it's fairly straight-forward and easy to do. Just follow the directions exactly. Also, I believe there is a one-click root app around here somewhere called Androot, I believe, but I'm not sure how well it works, as I didn't use it to root. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Glad it worked for you. The index is in the development forum, might be handy though if there was another copy in this forum as it seems to be the place to go for help

Rooting my HTC Vivid At&T on Android 4.0.3 ICS

Hi Guys,
Well switched over from the iPhone world to my HTC Vivid. As far as the iPhone goes I know pretty much everything there is to know. Now on my HTC I'm a little lost I've been reading through he forums for a couple days now and visited the HTC Dev site to Unlock Bootloader still can't figure it out a bit confused. If some would be nice enough to explain to a n00b with a Android I would appreciate it!

Welcome! First watch this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEWa_lUd2bY&feature=youtu.be
It will tell you everything you need to know. It doesn't matter what rom you are flashing same instructions will apply that are in the video.
Second, you need to pick a rom to flash. There are several on the forums or you can also go here:
http://www.wcxxperia-nce.com/index.php
You have to sign up to see the vivid forums. Anyway, if you have anymore questions just ask and we will help!

There's also the Super Guide here.

I know you're probably thinking this is a dumb question and probably has been answered before on another topic but I've tried doing ROM'S before and clearly they failed and broke my device and now i'm on here asking you guys to guide me on how to successfully install roms properly onto my phone. I would be really grateful if you guys help me out on this.
Thanks

That Non-sense mod is that for the 32 bit or 64 bit?

That's a 32 bit.. I don't know of any custom 64 bit roms yet... I only gave you the link because it shows you how to flash a Rom... If you're on 64 bit don't make the mistake a lot of others have and install 32 bit because it'll never work.

Ohhh okay thanks for showing me the guide last night i found more and actually managed to install it!
Thanks MrMike
