Happened before and a factory reset fixed it. Just tried to install the kangbang custom kernel (I have S-off'd my vivid) and it's happening again. Any ideas why/how to fix it? will factory reset fix it while letting me keep the custom kernel?
I thought kangbang didn't work on stock roms. I would try flashing a different kernel

Read through and it seems you're right. Just tried a different one that says it's compatible with all vivid rooted stock and custom roms... which mine is stock rooted... and same thing. any ideas?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575568 < kernel i tried
I see a bunch of instructions that include going in to some folders that dont exist on my phone.
I'm done with this crap, where can I download the stock kernel and just use the phone like it was meant to? this isn't worth the hassle it's giving me at all.
KB is still screwed up on Holiday base. Don't waste your time; even if it boots, you won't see a lot of its performance benefits.

I recently tried to bring my G1 back from the grave but, unfortunately it seems to not resurrect. I upgraded to the GB and since then I have not been able to use my Touch Interface! It will boot, it will get to the "Touch Android", but i only can use my trackpad to select options.
i know i hate this, ive had a few g1s like this and it is so annoying that you cant just highlight with trackball! when this happens i replace the digitizer and its fixed.
if anyone else has a good idea how to skip this, other then deleting the start up wizard from the rom of choice id love to know
So you think its the digitizer?. I think its the kernal that I have flashed I had two G1s' flashed the sameRom on both and the same incident! Any takers on this?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
so you are saying everyone who flashed the same rom as you now has a useless touchscreen? i kinda doubt it, maybe im wrong here but i cant imagine a kernel causing the digitizer to stop working when the rest of the rom is fine. there are easy ways of testing your theory you know...
Like? Let me guess install a different Rom and kernal?

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

Sounds like you might have the wrong radio version installed...
Try getting the closest matching RUU (look in the Development thread for links), flashing back to stock, and see if your calls work. If so, you should be good to go to install custom kernels and roms or whatever you want to do. If not, try a different RUU with a different radio version.
Hope that helps.
Worked like charm all is back to normal thanks

I love my vivid but every once in awhile it'll freeze or get sluggish and you need to reset it. So I do, but everytime I reset it, it goes to a screen saying android is updating like its downloading ics all over again? What's happening?

Lol its not downloading or reinstalling ICS all over again...
What happens is when you reboot it clears cache (too much cache can cause problems...like slow down apps) because the coach gets cleared it has to re optimize the applications
So all that's happening is the apps are getting re optimized...
If you don't want this to happen then you have to get a deodexed ROM, because this is just a feature of stock ICS roms...and stock ROMs are always odexed...but any custom ROM will be deodexed for the most part...there's a rooted deodexed stock ROM if you want to keel it stock

Oh okay. Didn't know all ics devices did that. I bought my vivid off amazon from some random dealer so I didn't know if they had screwed it up or something. Thanks

yup what mg2195 said is correct
Hello all here is the issue. My girlfriend has the HtC vivid and I have rooted it and obtained s-off with the wire trick. After I was done with this I attempted to find a good ROM for flashing there are very few. I decided on Virtuous Inquisition after installing VI I was fairly happy with the outcome no sense is the goal here. After the flash I noticed the signal bars not working like descired in almost all the non-sense HtC vivid ROMs. This seemed like no problem because the phone still technically had service right?
-well after using it for a few days my girlfriend disconvered that her text messages would fail to send sometimes actually sending them sometimes not. It would take serveral attempts to send the message and once it finally sent the recipent would sometime recieve for than one messages even though the vivid says it only sent 1. The same thing occured with phone calls she would have to try to call someone four or five times before it would go through. It also works the other way and sometime she will not get messages or calls for long periods of time.
This all occurs in VI and in [TEAM CODEFIRE][ICS]De-Sensed Rom by Wajee 1.6. I have tried using the stock kernel and the provided kernel with both of these as well. I have also used several different APNs and they all do the same thing.
I just flashed the stock kernel and ROM back on to the device and I am seeing if she has any problems. Could the wire trick have damaged the phone? I have not heard of anyone else having this problem.
What else can I try
Both of the desensed ROMs have plenty of issues. Wajeeh's is probably the better bet if you wanna stick with no sense. Otherwise Google wcx illuminati and go with that. It's the best ROM for the vivid by a LONG shot.

Thanks for the reply the phone is on stock ICS now so I might try to flash wajee again from stock. Are you using the kernel that comes with the ROM?

I always flash the faux007 kernel because i get better battery life with it. you can always try different ones to see how they run
Well I think I found my problem. I unlocked the boot loader on the phone the first time I flashed a ROM but re locked it. I just noticed it was lock so I unlocked it and installed wajee 1.6 and so far so good.
