Hi I been trying to root my att HTC vivid. But I can't seem to get it to work. I try the all in one tool. But I can't get a token Id. Cms pops up n said invalid. I try use the method from the super guide but I can get to the install zip part. I don't know if I need to unlock downloader first or not. If so I can't get that to work either. I am new to rooting on HTC. My Samsung galaxy s2 on T-Mobile was very simple. Please help. Thanks!!!

1. Can I leave hboot off unrooted
2. Can I lock hboot without a PC
3. Some tutorials say to lock hboot before flashing back to stock. I was aware u needed hboot unlocked to do this.

2. To unlock bootloader you need a pc
3. You need to unlock your bootloader, as for hboot depends on if you are flashing ics etc

Flashing stock ginger upgrading to stock ics
I have no clue why I am having so many issues going from rumraider beta 12 to unroot. But nonetheless I am. I will just have to sit down and read. I emailed the dev if that rom hopefully he is available

Ok so here is where I run into my issues. I am a gamer on my phone. At some point everyone is. But I play perblues games parallelmafia and parallel kingdom. On ics on the vivid I am getting some kind of skipping lag. And its only on that game. Maybe someone can help and try to figure the issue. I also called HTC support they attempted with same issue.

I would like some help as well. I have seen so many ways to root that it makes me nervous to pick which way to go. I've done every thing possible with my galaxy s but this phone the vivid seems difficult. Is there a true super one click for the phone that will give me root. Don't want custom rom. Just root access. Thanks. Htc vivid 4.0.3

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

Look in the Vivid Android Developement

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
wat roms can i use where i dint have to flash a kernel

Unlock bootloader
Flash recovery
Then flash root zip (for rooted stock) or Rom zip

Hey y'all I'm new to the HTC first. I'm familiar with rooting but not sure how to do it to this phone. Is there a way to do it without using adb and all that stuff? My old evo I had just hooked up to a computer and ran a program. Is there one for the first?
