For what it's worth, I have a new SIM unlocked Bell Mobility Raider upgraded to the latest stock ICS. Bootloader still locked, no root, S-ON
I am thinking of trying different kernels and ROMs but I don't want to do the whole S-OFF thing (I find it insane that we need to do the whole wire trick)
So far, my understanding is that with S-ON, I can unlock the bootloader, then get root access to the phone, then flash a new kernel using fastboot and then flash a new ROM.
With S-off it would make it easier to flash kernel and ROM at same time.
Is this correct?
My confusion: I read in some threads that with S-ON, the radio looks at the firmware and won't load a third party kernel/ROM. Is this so?
Can I change the kernel and ROM while keeping S-on, or not? I was thinking of trying the holics kernel which, if I understand it correctly, has a boot image for flashing using fastboot.
Also: with S-on, is it harder to brick the phone/ easier to recover? What happens if the flashing of new kernel fails, can I recover back to stock?
S-on - You cannot flash unsecured
.img files ( kernels, etc. ) in recovery.
S-off - You can flash everything in recovery.
There really isn't any benefit in having S-off unless 1. Your lazy and don't wanna use fastboot 2. You don't have a PC to use fastboot with.
All the Roms/kernels out can be flashed either way.

Use the HTC Vivid All in One Toolkit v.1.0 by Hasoon 2000, when it tells you to perform the wire trick, peel the ends off a twist tie you use for trash bags, place on the connectors and count,(one thousand one), take the wire off and you've got the easiest way to S-off. It's worth it vs being S-on. It simplifies everything. I know that doesn't answer your whole question but should help.

Yea ivwas nervous about the wire trick but just follow the guide its really easy as long as you only touch those 2 points you can't go wrong

Exactly what he said I used a old Co-Axl Cable to do it if that how you spell it LOL sorry it 5:30 in the morning I'm Tired as HELL xD
Yeah, the wire trick isn't bad, but also, it only takes a few extra minutes each time you flash a ROM to flash the kernel over fastboot. No big whip if you don't mind the extra steps. That said, I still recommend S-OFF in case you want to try a stack of ROMS. Then you can switch them on the go without being tethered to a computer.
I'd also recommend using TWRP recovery over CWM for your recoveries, as CWM for our phone doesn't support large backups. If you flash a ROM, install all your apps, backup, flash a new ROM, and decide to restore, you'll be screwed if your backup is over a certain size in CWM. I learned that the hard way, but loosing all my data! (You can use TWRP whether you stick with S-ON or not).

Not true, I was running beta 13 with the Elegancia Rom before I switched to WCX Illuminati and I'm S-on.
There is a guide in one of Synergy's threads over on rootz. It involves booting a recovery from fastboot and flashing the kernel then booting into the recovery on the phone to flash the Rom. I used a few times for kernels and it worked every time.

If I am misinformed I apologize. I am S-off and also used Elegancia Rom(Pegasus) I was going by info posted in the ROM thread and Kozmik's thread.
Faqs for Pegasus & Blitz ICS SENSE 3.6
These have only been tested on Amon RA recovery. If you can't find it then Clockwork should work if not try a different recovery.
This rom can only be flashed if you are already on ics.
Also you must have S-Off. If you do not then it should still flash (unsupported) everything except for the boot.img. You will need to extract the boot.img and flash it in fastboot. If you are S-On and elect to flash this then you MUST select Stockish Kernel when you are installing the rom as KozmiKKernel does not support S-Off.

Installation:
I am no longer supporting phones that are not S-Off. Get S-Off now Then just flash zip in recovery and select your options!
Yea, when I read that in kozmick's thread originally that's when I remembered the link in Synergy's thread showing the workaround for it.

If your asking about anything and you have h-boot 1.16.0000 and/or cannot attain s-off please state so in your OP.
Can you help me? I have s-on 1.16.0000 and I have cyanogenmod 7.1 and have access to root files etc. I want to install tiamat kernel for my phone but when I install via recovery it says its completed but when I reboot it still has the same cyanogenmod kernel however wifi doesn't work. Luckily I did a backup so all is good for now. Just like to flash a kernel because its meant to improve battery life. Some people say its because of s-on but I'm not sure.

Since you had to use the HTC HBOOT Unlocking process to get a custom recovery on your phone, I would suggest you go visit and search the HTC EVO 3D forums for thread discussions and procedures for flashing custom kernels. If I remember correctly you may need to do it manually in FASTBOOT mode.
Found it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239821
It seems like the only way to S-Off Vivid required some wire trick. I never done something like that b4...
What do I miss if I leave it S-ON? I already unlock bootloader, custom recovery and rooted.
Thanks anyone for answering.
Apart from being able to flash radios (to the best of my knowledge there aren't any custom/better ones for the vivid, yet), there are kernals being built that require s-off. And with s-off you can flash roms/images that are unsigned to the phone, regardless of what carrier or region you're in; other words, you can flash whatever Rom you like so its imperative that everything about the Rom you're installing is read and understood to avoid confusion and ultimately, a bricked device... That's pretty much it in a nutshell. I hope that cleared it up for you

First part about radios is wrong. You need an ENG HBOOT to do it, which we still don't have. Sure, S-Off lets us flash custom HBOOTs, but we're still not there yet.
Second part about kernels requiring it is also wrong. You can always flash kernels as a fastboot flash boot boot.img, then CWM the modules in. It's always been the case, and is not changing with AOSP or any of that stuff. AOSP doesn't require S-Off, neither does Sense 4, neither does any preexisting nor future kernel.
Third part about unsigned ROMs is partially wrong. You can flash other regions' RUU updates with the superCID. Still doesn't let you do custom ROMs themselves; for that, the unlocked bootloader process is still valid, and you will need some form of recovery (CWM, WCX, TWRP, etc).

Actually my kernel does require s-off now if you want to keep it up to date. If you are fine using a less feature rich and possibly unstable s-on version of it then that's fine

Thank you everyone for replying.
So this is what I get:
with S-OFF,
1) I can flash hboot (boot.img)
2) Within recovery (CWM or alike), I can flash Custom ROM zip that has build-in kernel
Is that correct?
BTW, is there SuperCID for Vivid yet?
Thanks again,

1. HBOOT is not a boot.img, it's an .nb0 file (the bootloader itself). boot.img is a kernel.
2. Yes.
3. Yes, it's 11111111 like most other HTC devices.
Thanks Aus_Azn,
I guess I mixed up hboot and kernel....
I know 11111111 is THE SuperCID for all device but is there a SuperCID hack for Vivid yet?
Since I don't have the patience to do S-off, I was wondering since my Vivid is already unlocked / rooted how hard it would be to install a custom rom? I already have WCX recovery, btw. I googled but could not find any instructions on installing a custom ROM with S-on. I want a de-sensed rom or Elegancia ROM. Can I do this with s-on, and how?
Google my signature their roms are for s-on
wcx experia-ance rom
Use holics Rom I used it when I was S-ON and it worked great just flash the boot.IMG in fastboot and your good to go

You can use Elegancia Rom while being on S-ON you just have to flash the boot.img via fastboot. When I was S-ON that is what I did and no problems at all. If you have any questions please feel free to pm me will be glad to help anyway I can.
S-off isn't that hard. Takes maybe 10-15 mins tops so long as you read everything thoroughly and follow the instructions to the letter.

I managed to get Elegancia ROM on it no issues, (Even without doing the fastboot boot.img flash? it's weird. I still get the AT&T bootscreen and Beats screen, but boots to the rom) Only the battery life is HORRIBLE! I didn't even get 12 hours on a FULL CHARGE! Wifi, GPS off.. only background apps running were Facebook and Gmail. Screen brightness was all the way down. I did try a battery calibration, before hand.
Also... How do I do the fastboot flashing? I hate to sound like a noob, but I did have an Inspire 4G which was easy to flash roms on

******EDIT*******
I got it figured out!!! Thanks guys
As title states, What is a GOOD ROM that will still work with S-on? I have Elegancia ROM on it now, But I am not too fond of it. Battery life is pretty rubbish and it's sorta buggy. Why don't I S-off? Because I'm afraid of bricking my ONLY phone.. and where I live isn't close to someone who can do it for me (Nor would anyone, anyways) But I want a GOOD ROM that will work with S-on and is de-sensed. Thanks
As far as de-sensed goes you only have three choices- wajeeh's desensed Rom, virtuous Rom, or MIUI. All of those work with S-on as I've tried all of those. If you want completely stable with great battery but not de-sensed then check out the Illuminati Rom. I switch between MIUI and Illuminati regularly and both of them are real good as far as battery life go.
I'm S-on and will probably stay that way until I find a different phone.
Sent from Illuminati land.
I screwed up my S-OFF a couple of times (because I missed a vital prep step). It was frustrating, but to my surprise it didn't brick the phone. I was able to restore the stock software etc. and try again.
Anyway - Isn't it possible that any custom rom could work with S-ON? (as long as the extra step of manually flashing the kernel/boot.img is done?)
I was on Wajee Desensed 1.5 for a while - I really liked it... but eventually I missed sense. Now I'm on the latest PureVelocity and loving it.

Another question!! What exactly does S-on prevent me from doing? Can I still install a new / different kernel with fastboot even if I am S-on?

I may not have said that clearly, S-OFF means you do not have to flash boot.img (kernel zip) via fastboot, you can flash it through recovery
with S-ON you have to use fastboot to flash the boot.img.

that is correct you can still flash a new kernel through fastboot, how ever the customize kernel in the rom is for s-off and can not be flash with fastboot. I know it gets confusing at times but he makes a kernel that u can flash http://d-h.st/rBg it is customizable. The kernel devs will let you know in their threads if you need s-off to use them etc.

I'm having a similar problem, but i just dont find the right ICS RUU to flash it seems.
I live in austria, have the htc velocity 4g, with 2.3.7 gingerbread.
Bootloader tells me:
*** UNLOCKED ***
HOLIDAY PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.85.0023
eMMC-boot
Feb 1 2012,01:02:37
what i did for now:
i unlocked the bootloader (with htcdev), put on the twrp-recovery (2.4.4.0) (with hasoons-tool) and also tried wcxrecovery.img (for BoRKed)
wiped it clear, installed the cm10 [cm-10-20130310-NIGHTLY-holiday] and gapps / later BoRKed
since i am s-on i ran the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" command.
And the result is the reboot-cycle (cyanogenmod10 - with freezing short after the pin-code / permanently rebooting with BoRKed).
I read through the forums and found out that i need a newer hboot (ICS) to be able to install Jellybean ROMS.
as mentioned before, i think that i should lock my bootload and flash the right ICS RUU like told in the vivid-developers-forum.
i tried out the htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe but it told me [error130] wrong model, so i couldnt finish the RUU.
the wire-trick for s-off is a little bit scary to me, so i didnt try that for the time being.
so, for the time being i am a little bit out of clues and would be very glad if somebody could help me out with the right version of the RUU i should flash (and where i could get it) or am i completely off track here?
thnx, joe

the step-by-step written guide from hasoon2000 (link) tells me to do it after i installed the ROM.
Now go back and press install. Go to the folder where the ROM you downloaded, is located in. Select the ROM and slide the screen to flash it. After it flashes, press the back button. Press Reboot and Reboot into bootloader. Open the ROM you downloaded from your computer. You should see boot.img. Extract it to your computer. Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.
After it flashes, press reboot from the phone.
Congrats! Enjoy your fully working or borked ROM! Remember, DO NOT ASK FOR ETAs, DO NOT BUG/PM A DEV ABOUT UPDATES, and BE RESPECTFUL TO THE DEVELOPERS!

The model id error is because you're trying to flash a Vivid RUU to a Velocity. You'll either need to s-off and super CID, then you can run whatever RUU you want, or you need to get the correct RUU for your device. I was pretty sure that 1.85.0023 and 1.85.0025 were bootloaders that came with ICS though. Maybe I'm remembering wrong about that, but I thought that the first ATT leak had .0023 and the official release had .0025
please run this (from fastboot USB) and reply back with the return
fastboot getvar mainver
(I have the Telstra ICS RUU uploading now if that's what you'll need)

Also - if you'd like to try this before any of that, it may work as well (others have had success). From fastboot USB:
fastboot erase cache
Now flash recovery, ROM, boot.img (from my experience, it doesn't matter if the boot.img is flashed before or after the ROM, as long as it's flashed BEFORE trying to actually boot the ROM)
(note that if the problem is your bootloader version, this won't work.)

do i have to flash the recovery back (where do i find the stock-recovery? in the backup?), i am always using the twrp242-recovery now.
i tried the steps you wrote down with the same result (boot-cycle).
i think i will have to give the "s-off and super CID" as u mentioned before a try and then use the telstra-ruu. i read that this worked out for some guys in germany. i will do this on saturday, i need to be fully concentrated to do that, not next to work...

One other thing.. you are relocking your bootloader before trying to run the ruu, and you're trying to run the ruu from fastboot?

One other thing.. you are relocking your bootloader before trying to run the ruu, and you're trying to run the ruu from fastboot?

yes, always relocked.
first i ran the RUU (telstra) from the gb-2.3.7 screen, now i tried it from fastboot.
same result - error 130 (model-id)

I think you mean this thread [Collection] Stock Roms [3/25/13] but i cant find my provider (austria / a1 [telekom]) there. also there has been no OTA ICS launched in austria...
seems that i have to postpone the s-off, cant find the time to do it right now...
i will revive the thread when i finally went through it.
thanks for your help till now.
