WC has released a version of the AT&T ICS ROM with SENSE 3.6 with tethering working with out the tethering plan.
head over to his forum if you are not registered you wont see the HTC VIVID thread not hot links aloud to his forums and downloads that's the reason why I didn't post any links.
People like us have known all along

He has a att version too with beats

No tethering on initial att release tho. Tethering no beats in generic att as its based on Telstra build.

Well I am happy to report that this is a very stable Rom . I still have the time zone warning if I select automatic time updates but I just leave it of and thats that. The random vibration issue is gone finally! Excellent battery life even with LTE 7hours normal use and did about 2 of those playing angry birds (no profiles set on set CPU so profiles should help more) Not bad
WC, thank you brother, nicely done as always!

Can you send him a PM or something maybe he or someone can put the file you want in dropbox or something. There's got to be way for you to see the site. As long as you are a contributing member the site is free to anyone to use the roms.
Is there any custom ICS roms? sorry for sounding stupid but I cant find any.
Seems like there are 2 available and the developers have moved away from xda. One is made by Pirateghost and called Rum Float: http://blog.androidninjas.com/rom-dev/htc-vivid/rum-float/
The other is made by WildChild and you have to register to see the vivid section here: http://www.wcxxperia-nce.com/
Anyone tried these custome ROMS?
Hey, has anyone tried these custome ROMS, I would like to get something without AT&T apps included......
wildchild has a generic one that has all the att stuff removed

both of them roms will get you no att bloatware...
i personally use wildchilds generic build as it has working wifi teathering
I have PG's Rum Float Beta4, updated from Beta2. No bloat and ofcourse rooted, really like it.
He has his own web site, if you search for Rum Float, it should pop up.

Hi xda,
It would seem that I've jumped into this a little late, but what happened to make all the cooks leave xda and ignore the Vivid, Velocity etc.
Sorry but I've been away from xda for about 12 months while living in Blackberry-land.
I'd really like an ICS ROM for my Velocity without HTC's bastard 'Sense' bloatness.
Also - is getting root access to the Velocity as easy as it was for the HD2?
Cheers;

CM9 port is being worked on. Check the dev thread. Other than that, there are Sense ICS ROM's available, just not many here.. at this point.
As far as what happened, no need to stir up bad memories Look through some of the threads from last month and you'll figure it out. In the mean time, follow the golden rule, and the rules of the forum, and maybe they'll start trickling back in

Sense 3.6

I am using Wild Childs at&t build of ics. It is awesome! He did an outstanding job with the rom. Silky smooth, looks like stock without the bloat! Plus with the mods here in the forums like extended menu, signal icon changer, and some other mods you can't beat it. This phone rocks hard!

Because the majority of samsungs and other brands embarrass android and apple still feels outdated and something for social status?

IMO its the lesser of all evils. Every brand has their own "skin". So even if you prefer AOSP, you might as well get the brand with the best looking and best functioning skin. Of course there is the nexus phones, but those aren't for everyone.

Agreed. I just don't know that I could talk myself into the investment of a device that runs software that I hated, with the possibility of not be able to change it. Granted there are things being worked on now (CM9), but let's be real, this phone was released in November and to this point we haven't seen anything Sense-less (for reasons beyond the dev's control - just got kernel source 10 days ago fcs), it would be very tough for me to buy the device at this point if I hated Sense . I don't know how long shayla's had theirs though...
Just a heads up for anyone who might want to try it I have the Goggle Now working on my HTC vivid.
If you want to give it a try follow the links below for info.

Everything works... Only thing I've noticed is that it is taking a wile for cards to show up. Right now I only have one, weather, but apparently that is normal.
Okay, so is this the one that requires a workaround for voice to work, or is this one (generally) fully functional?
Edit: Just installed it, seems like Voice is fully functional. Very nice!
It's very nice indeed. Flashed just fine with the wcx recovery that came with juobear for anyone wondering about that.

Only after a couple days of use I about four quick cards loaded including travel.
It is working great.
Great! I stumbled on this today and was hoping somebody had tried it on the Vivid. I'll have to go flash it now and give it a try!
Just fyi, I tried this on the Virtuous Inquisition ROM and it does not seem work, but works perfectly fine on the De-Sensed ROM from CodeFire. Not sure if this is a bug or something but just putting it out here.
It works on my Vivid with Holics 1.2/KozmiKKernel beta 13
Awesome mod! Works great!

Why is it that when I just upgrade to the HTC vivid all the devs quit working on it now I'm stuck with the phone...
Does anyone think there will be any new development for this phone or did I just waste my money? Thanks in advance also does anyone have any idea how much American Currency my White 10/10 condition S-OFFed Unlocked with Holics Rom would be worth I'm probably gonna sell it and buy a new phone like a SII or SII
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Some have moved on yes and its quite from time to time but there are still some great roms , kernels , and programmes out there for the device as there is still a few good devs working on stuff , I'd give it a chance and try some out here and other forums and find one ya like , but if your a flash catholic then maybe its not the device of choice .
Good luck and enjoy .
There's a Sony xperia port in the works over at rootzwiki....
And you wouldn't get more than $300 for a perfect condition...I got mine for $225 8/10 like 4 months ago...that was the typical price...since the phone has aged...prices/demand has also dropped...
Next time before upgrading do research on more then just the hardware of the phone...

What's is the difference between a Xperia port and any other Rom and yeah I know I didn't really think of it when I bought the phone
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Its because the device is a nightmare to develop for. Most developers have moved on to more developer friendly hardware, you can't blame them really. Aside from battery life, this is a great phone for a non techie, or an iphone user who wants to try "something else". But its not for the hardcore android fan, and its not a geeks phone at all.
My mistake buying this phone was (a) thinking sense was better than at actually was and (b) thinking I was done with custom roms and just wanted a good stable phone. The biggest mistake was extending my contract another 2 years to get it, I can correct the phone easily, Galaxy nexuses are only $350 off google play, you sell this phone on ebay, you'll get over half of it there. But being stuck with overpriced AT&T for 2 years, thats the real regret!

An xperia port is basically a Sony phone...so its whole New UI, its not sense and its not aosp...its Sony UI...whatever that is lol
But like Motorola has motoblur, Samsung has touchwiz, HTC has sense...Sony has...idk, but its getting ported
Oh yeah, its gonna be ics 4.0.4, not 4.0.3 like the rest of our rims...

How come no one has mentioned WCX? He's about the best dev for our phone and his Roms are completely stable with 0 bugs and awesome battery life and plenty of updates. Rafy is going strong with his ports too and they are good but battery life isn't as good for me so I tend to stick with WCX.

As alot of you know wcx forums only allow people from within the US to access their site... Using a proxy you can view the forums but you can't download anything.... So does anyone know a way or proxy someone from outside the us can download the Rom because wild child is gearing up for the release of his sense 4.1 Rom soon.
