HTC Vivid Windows drivers

I was following the tutorial for removing Carrier IQ from the Vivid, and needed the Windows drivers. This is for a friend, and I don't want to install the entire 150MB HTC Sync crap. I got them to install it and here are the drivers alone, only 1MB each (Win7, Windows XP).
Hope someone finds them helpful.

Thank you. These will be great for those of us with slow connections and prefer a light impact on storage

Thanks for this, I always kept drivers in a folder on my rd card if I needed to access my phone through someone's pc

I can't thank you enough. I live in Cuba and use a dial up connection (there's no alternative). I can not even download the All-In-One toolkit since is 25 mb. So Light downloads make my day.

Thanks for the drivers!

This should definitely be stickied. I was looking for this several days ago and could not find it.

Could just download the file from HTC - install, it will ask to install driver, after done hit cancel - woala, no sync installed.

Try the XP 32 bit driver he posted. It should work for Vista.

Hey, I don't know if anybody is still looking at this thread or not (I was), but when trying to install the drivers on a new Windows 7 computer, the Windows 7 drivers didn't work, but then I tried the Windows XP drivers and those worked fine. Just an fyi for anybody that might be having issues.

If the Windows 7 driver didn't work, perhaps you are not on a 64bit OS.

[Q] What does this sound mean?

I tried going back to stock with the RUU in one of the how-to videos posted on here. I have done it before no problem but this time when I plug my device into my computer I get this sound.
http : //youtu.be/ 5L9HIh_V0FE
(sorry unable to posts videos so I had to split it up)
I'm not sure what it means all my drivers are installed correctly but ADB won't recognize my phone and I can't go back to stock.
My computer recognizes the phone when it's fully on but not when on the bootloader.
I'm not sure exactly what is happening so any help is appreciated.

Have u tried installing htc sync?

It means it isn't recognizing your device. Use the all in one tool found in the Sprint HTC ONE forum to reinstall drivers.

Don't do this with Hansoons Kit. it is worthless. Just install HTC sync as it includes the proper drivers.

What version of Windows? If it's windows 8, that's your problem.

Windows 8 has worked with a lot of people for drivers, so that shouldn't be it, however I have the same issue with fastboot and Windows 8 :crying:

Try Windows 7.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium

Windows 8 works that's what I use for my pc. Windows 8.1 is the one having issues since they have to update the drivers for it

[Q] Help getting windows to detect phone?

I have an unlocked vivid, that was unlocked over a year ago.
I want to relock and go back to stock ruu, but adb/fastboot cant find my phone no matter what I do...
I have tried all the usb ports, installing htc sync and all the drivers, and this. When I try using hasoon's toolkit to install the drivers, literally nothing happens.
I have Windows 8, will switching to linux solve this? any help appreciated

In develop options, make sure USB debugging is on

windows 8.1 is a mess, Microsoft screwed up on this, that's the news I had read...so if you are only flashing a kernel, ROM etc, try to download mobile odin and see if its compatible on i9001 to do what you need to do or just borrow or use your friends , neighbors PC to resolve:fingers-crossed:.

Win 7 and 8 are in general not as reliable for flashing with Odin as the XP is.
You would go better by installing Ubuntu OS on your PC and use Heimdall in Ubuntu.
