you cant thats why you need S-OFF without the only way is with fastboot commands.
I have a quick tool that can flash them for you but it does not use the GUI your talking about
S-OFF allows access to ALL parts of the device memory.
Can you attempt to achieve s-off, it seems to be your main concern

And if you're thinking you can use the developer ICS that was put out there, no amount of kernels we have for the Vivid are going to make it boot.

Not sure if it helps but I know the h-boot version of the s-off device I got my rom from was 1.85.
This rom doesn't work on my raider since its s-on.
I'm thinking if we have someone dump the hboot image (s-off) one it may potentialy work out for the community

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.

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.

This no safer or worse than the bootloader method, it's just the bootloader does it for you rather than manually typing the command.
While appreciate people need help, there are a lot of these threads popping up in the dev section explaining very specific problems. There is a Q&A forum for a reason, please keep topics in this forum related to dev only.

Not really. Sometimes when you want to flash PG32IMG, it does'nt work. And the cause for that is the cid. If you're cid is not in the android-info.txt, bootloader won't recognize the zip. To check cid, use this command 'fastboot getvar all' and see your cid number.

I don't understand why you use this method.. There is a much more faster method there you just put the radio zip in the root of the memory card and boot into bootoader (it will auto. loade som files) then it will ask you if you want to update the Radio and you accept that by pressing volyme up, then just w8 for it will finnished,
