Can't restore first backup from CWM - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I followed all the direction in the sticky from developmentand made sure to make a backup of my stock Rom so that I could always get back to something stable and guess what....it wouldn't boot.
I was running WC's 3.5 Rom and need to get back to stock. Didn't work. Tried a couple times and now I flashed
Wc again just to get my phone booted. Any ideas?

You need to flash the stock kernel in fastboot.

Where is the best place to get the

[Q] Primadonna/AuraSense/Quattro

I got the Problem that Primadonna/NiksAuraSense/Quattro doesnt boots for me. Its not because the Oc Value. Not because of Wipe cause I wiped everything. Also the Sd card too. Everything exept the Rom.zip
It must be something from the boot.img (reflash it via fastboot doesn't workes too).
I think It's the Virtuous Oc but idk how to disable it.
My Phone have the Blackrose HBoot 2.00 S-Off, 14_M Radio, latest 4ext Touch Recovery and I got it shipped with Hboot 2.00 too but unlocked via Htcdev, downgraded and so on.

Ahh I'm unsure tbh I've only ever used CWM. Couldn't you just install cwm over it to erase it or something ?

Have you try wait for it longer time?..mine take some time to boot up too.

First boot takes couple of mins but I assume he's flashed before. There must be a logical reason. Is it possible to flash a different kernel to begin with other than the one in the boot.img?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
I wait about 15 min but just a annoying black screen.
I dont know which other kernel to Flash bcos he wrote the Kernel completely self :s

Have you tried to use "fastboot flash boot boot.IMG" via computer? If this method work, please flash the hboot back to eng for a better result.

Tried to and that with Eng boot, i tried it this morning, no luck..

I believe tiatmat and ice cold kernels should work basically any ICS ones. Got nothing to lose by trying one of them I suppose?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
Alright, I try it right now with the latest tiamat for ics.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
Edit: It boots, but System not responding, touchscreen not respondig, stucked ob this error.
But before it does "optimize Applications", 195 of them..
Edit2: Let it Boot with the latest Tiamat, pull Battery out and in, flash boot.img from Rom via fastboot and trying to let it boot againt doesnt works. It dont boots.
I'm literally all out of ideas then. Sorry

[Q] Quick questions before messing with the phone.

I have a few questions before I unlock bootloader and install a recovery. The first question is: will unlocking the bootloader erase anything off the phone? Also, will rooting through WCX Recovery.erase anything off the phone? I know that flashing a ROM will erase everything, but I'm just curious. I really don't want to lose anything until I've made a backup with recovery.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
Yes for security purposes unlocking the boot loader formats user data. Rooting does not, but in order to flash the recovery you would need an unlocked boot loader.

Thanks for the quick reply, I'll see if I can find a way to backup my apps. Any suggestions?

Since you're unrooted, you're probably going to have to rely on Google's cloud backup, which is inconsistent at best.
I don't remember whether MyBackup (Pro?) supports backing up without root or not, but that could be another option.
Think I'll just end up making a list of the apps. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Try appmonster pro.

Appmonster did the trick. I'll probably unlock the bootloader and root on Friday. Thanks guys!

I have one last question. Once I've unlocked the bootloader, and rooted, I don't need to flash a ROM? Probably a dumb question but I want to be safe.

Thats up to you some people like stock others like pre customized ones.
Can you recommend some? I want to try RumFloat or the De-Sensed ROM.

Where we are now in ROM development, I can safely say that if you want Sense, Telstra stock is more than good enough (as it includes WiFi tethering out of the box, no modification, and can have DSPManager put on it). I've heard good things about WCX Generic, but I've never been a huge fan of WC's ROMs. If you don't like Sense, try DeSensed.
I'm running 4.0.3ics stock with kozmikkernel .I'm just waiting for s-off.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
I like sense enough to stick with it for a while, but I'm on AT&T. Will the Telstra stock still work?

Boot Master Pro or Lite

Has any one tried using this app with their Inc S? How did it go?
I've installed it, loaded 3 roms (2 install from zip and 1 nandroid backup) and can't get any to boot. They all get stuck at the Splash screen.
I'm unlocked, S off, using Blackrose and have never had an issue installing those roms before.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
I had it, but just for two rom. Do you selected install boot.IMG with?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda app-developers app
I just followed the on screen prompts. Install zip, so I then select the zip I wanted. And when I try to boot to that rom it does nothing.

A reason could be the blackrose hboot with the lip partition..
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda app-developers app
Do you know of any way to get it to work?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
For me it looks like ics is too unstable for that, it doesn't run on my device flawlessly. You could go back to a non Blackrose HBoot, flash a Rom who don't need blackrose and try it again

Stock ROM? This happens on reboot with odexed ROMs, and upon reboot after wiping dalvik cache in recovery.

Yea then the only way to get rid of it would be to unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery, install deodexed ROM (most custom ROMs are)
Thats the only way?

It's possible with fast boot on you may not see it. But does fast boot apply to cold boots as well? Or just restarts?
Edit: I guess it would apply to cold boots too, since from a cold boot you can't get to bootloader with fast boot on. Try it and let us know.
No... because with fastboot on the phone never shuts off... similar to hibernate in windows...
It has to do with building odex files AFAIK...

Do a backup with CWM. You can revert to stock ROM by restoring

Do not... For the love of whatever you call holy... Use CWM... Use TWRP or WCX recoveries

I think wcx is specifically meant for vivid. You can try that.
I have used both CWM and TWRP and have found both equally good

i have CWM, also have both zip files ICS stock Rom and also the one im currently using, can i just make a back up, and flash the ICS zip file?
I don't have any experience in flashing in HTC vivid. Search the forum before flashing or take help from someone who owns one and knows what he is doing.
I give below link of one from the forum

ClockworkMod compiled for the vivid has a good chance to destroy partitions... It was improperly compiled or just isn't compatable...
