First of all: use the search function, there are plenty of guides available.
Second: if you do want to post questions, use the Q & A forum!
Is mr. Google dead??? Haven't seen anything on the news yet.....
Don't mind the Drama Dutchmen.
Here is the link to the FAQ for the Legend: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747890

Visit htcdev.com and follow the steps to unlock the bootloader . HTC has a simple guide which explains step by step process.
Than the simplest way is search for "xda vivid HTC super tool", in google and hopefully one of the links 1/2nd will take you to the right thread in this fourm .
HTC supper tool is easiest way to root your phone . I hope it helps.

Use the Superguide for Rooting
I just rooted my Vivid using the Superguide by Slapshot30. If you follow the guide, you should have no issues rooting.

WELL. If you think you will mess it up(very unlikely) I could do so via Skype if that's okay.

Great idea, I think I will work on doing that!
Ok so a dev made a tool to unlock bootloader, get cwm recovery and basically everything you need. Only thing missing is a simple step on actually perm rooting. So go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498003 and follow those instructions. Read read read. When you finish unlocking bootloader (probably longest part of the process) you're going to get the cwm recovery which is really easy. Back up your stuff (just read the instructions) then go to the Superguide thread in the dev forum and download the vivid root zip at the bottom of the first post. Stick that bad boy into your ext. Sd card and boot your phone into recover (that tool has a button to do that but if you wanna learn.yourself, just power down, pull battery and inser again, hold power and volume down button until the hboot screen comes up, go to fastboot then recovery). I assume you backed your files and now.you will flash the root by installing zip from ext Sd card and flash the vivid root zip. You are now rooted! Reboot and check your apps for superuser. Yay!

I must say this phone with its locked bootloader is more complex than other phones I've owned! Stick with the supergiude and you'll be fine.

So i bought a vivid off of craigslist and the person updated it using the htc website... Now i want to unlock the boot loader and get perm root any suggestions? Im coming from a skyrocket and it was alot less complicated.. would the thread of the noob rooting and unlocking still work on ICS official update?

I am assuming you meant upgraded to ics using htc site.
Follow the guide for unlocking bootloader then look on last page for wild Childs instructions on how to flash recovery. Start with step 11.
Here is that link:

Normally the HTC Incredible S ROMs are rooted.. For steps to flash a new ROM, you can use the following steps:. You don't need to downgrade you HBOOT (new models have 2.0).

Thank you for your respond
Hi guys, I'm really new on the one (bought today ) and coming from my rooted one x.
My one got the welcome splash screen and shut down by Vodafone_it and some Vodafone apps installed. My question is if my one is a branded one, and if I have to follow a particular procedure for rooting.
In bootloader mode I see m7-ul
Any suggestion welcomed
Thanks

Just use moonshine or revone. Process is the same for all variants. No, I won't post a step by step guide, just go read the threads.
Thanks mate,
I don't need a step by step guide. I just asked to know if I'll have to follow a particular procedure
Thanks again for informations.

It wasn't exactly personal to you, just had to clarify since people request it once they ask about s-off. More of just making sure a guide isn't expected.
