Retrace your last steps, what rom were you flashing?

I had the same problem and was somewhat freaking out for a few hours today. You need to install clockworkmod most likely. Get the data from the clockworkmod thread over in the development subsection, and use the fastboot flash recovery command to install it.
I'm about to go to sleep, but if you can get to fastboot don't freak out like I did. PM me if you can't figure it out by tomorrow. I can try my best to help (although I admit I'm also very noobish in many ways)

theres a clockworkmod recovery for vivid ?

Yes, in the development section.
Not trying to sound like an a-hole but people really need to read and ask questions before they try to start doing these things to their phone.

[Q] Recovery Back-up stuck?

Hey guys,
I'm trying to back-up my phone through CWM but it gets stuck at random stages (sometimes early in System, other times during Data backup).
I haven't tried anything yet since I'm not sure where to start, any ideas?
The only way I found to get out of there is to remove the battery. Although I assume it's safe-ish to do so as I'm just doing a back up (and not actually flashing), I really don't like doing that.
I'm using a Rogers Raider flashed on RumRaider Beta7 (wanna backup to flash to Beta 10!)
Come on man... Try searching
Edit: I even put a ton of info in the superguide involving this.

I've already tried that (battery pull, boot into Recovery and delete partial back-ups) and I'm still having the same problem.
Unless I missed something else in your superguide...?

What cwm did you use, the one in superguide or the other one? Have you looked at the two other threads in general with the same problem? Both of them solved it. Next time, try to post in an existing thread rather than make a new one.

Ok could use some help/advice

So I came from the Inspire which had an abundance of development going on for it, now that you can finally root the Vivid I'm hoping that it will pick up here as well. What I'm wanting to know is what ROMs are out there that will work for the Vivid and if they can be flashed used ROM Manager or if thats not available yet.
Also boot animations (if they must be vivid specific or can be used from any phone style)
Thanks for any help I might be able to get.
I really would not recommend the from manger yet for the vivid. The Holiday recovery is not correct for the Vivid
Read the Super guide and get the proper Recovery.
Check out the Vivid dev section there are a few Sense 3.5 Roms, the only one I have been successful with is RumRaider the rest I have had issues with boot looping and the like. Many of us are still trying to get to the bottom of these issues. However it is very early on on dev for the vivid

Recovery confusion
There is some confusion circulating about the CWM recovery version compatibility with the few roms currently available, and Rom Manger has reported an incorrect recovery version to me.
I would hold off on RM for a bit.
I have successfully loaded and used RumRaider and HoliRaider.
I would just follow the super guide and stay away from ROM Manager.
I still won't use ROM Manager even when it is supported because it's way to buggy for my liking. Plus, it's always good to know how to do everything manually if you ever have any issues.

[Q] trouble starting up htc vivid

i have read all the other threads concerning my problem, and i havent been able to fix it someone please help me, i tried flashing a kernel to my phone from the all in one kit and now im stuck on the htc logo screen, i can access the recovery and fastboot
You will need to find the original gb rom and go from there. I will link to you tomorrow. Pm if you any help

GB? does it matter if i had ICS before this problem?
I believe it doesn't matter. When you flashed the kernel with stock ics, it will messed your stuff up. Find the gb download, then go to boot loader, it will ask you to update or not. Say yes then let it do it's thing. Then boom. Gingerbread.

Did you even read the link they posted? It tells you exactly what to do in the op of that thread. Questions are good but it is a general rule to read before asking questions.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
In case you didn't read it, it says out it in your external card and boot into boot loader by holding down volume down + power. It should scan it and ask if you would like to update or not. Select yes, then it should reboot or something. Yada, you are back to gingerbread.

Thank you so much ill try it out after i get back from school
ok one problem i dont have an sd card...
I am not sure if you could still do it wihlh internal storage. Load into boot loader, choose the recovery option then select internal USB tuggle. I am not sure if your system will detect the file. Let me make sure.

I have no idea why I could toggle to my internal drive but it is probably just me

There is not a true one click root yet for the Vivid there are several methods to root, I use the wcx root method it is easier then the All in one..
I just switched from the captivate to the vivid as well. I feel so lost now, i knew my Cappy inside and out, but with this phone everything seems so complicated. I just want to root the stock rom as well. Ive tried many of the methods but none seem to work.

With any method best to read all the information, wcx has very clear and precise instructions to help you root.
sorry if i sound totally stupid but what is wcx and can i use it if i have started with the tool kit by hasoon2000? i too have had an inspire and rooted it have had tilt 2 and rooted it and even installed android but this is not the same. i too have bricked a vivid trying and did a warranty exchange and want to try again but am leary. even tried to revive the bricked device but could not. can still get to bootloader but am kinda lost from there. help! pleasee!
Wcx is wildchilds site google it you have to join his site to see the vivid section and have 10 post to download which you can get in the lounge section very easily

There are several good roms, best advice is to try each because what works good for me may not work for you.

i would recommend just using the all in one toolkit, the reason your vivid is stuck on the white htc screen is you flashed a wrong kernel relock your bootloader run the stock att ruu unlock bootloader flash custom kernel flash custom rom and enjoy, personally i use Holic's 0.7 rom it is by far the best for me wcx is also very good

Flashing Rom problem.

Hello. I have an HTC Vivid. I did the Hansoon all in in one root kit with no trouble but then when I put a custom Rom on my sd card and tried to flash it, it gets stuck at the boot screen.
My question is do I have to be S-off in order to flash New Roms? Because I am having trouble reading these guides. I don't fully understand without a video of some sort.
I rooted my Inspire without a problem and had that for quite some time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium
You don't have to be s-off to flash ROMs, but if you're s-on you will need to fastboot flash the kernel when you flash the ROM to get it to work right. That's all s-off really does. Allows kernels to be flashed in recovery.
There are plenty of tutorials out there for everything to do with flashing this stuff. Search around and do a whole lot of reading.

Now when you say fast boot the kernel you mean flash it from the boot loader screen? I will try and read more. Inspire we're not this hard. One program got s-off and rooted. Vivid too many different steps.

Yes. and one program simplified it so much that people who had no business modifying their phone drove attn1 almost to insanity. This way, you have to read, and read some more. And actually understand what you're doing.
I loved attn1's tool, it was AMAZING! I just felt so bad for the support he had to give...
Well I figured it out and got the Pac man Rom on my Vivid. This thing runs smooth. I'm so happy to have figured this out.
Thanks to everyone who made this possible.
