You can still root it. If anything just s-off and then sim unlock it.

DO NOT INSTALL CWM FROM HANSOON'S TOOLKIT...
It corrupts partitions...
Use TWRP

Can Rogers/Bell Raider Rom flash Rom flash to AT&T Vivid?
I want not AT&T radio, because don't send SMS use Japan Carrier "Docomo".
I get Raider Rom from extracted RUU, rename to PH39IMG.zip.
Tried update use HBOOT, but stop CID error.
As other methods "adb flash radio", that is safety?
If there is a person who tried someone, please let me know.
Have you unlocked the phone's bootloader?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
yes. I have Vivid, that unlocked bootloader.
The Bell Raider ROM(PH39IMG.zip) update to "re-locked" Vivid was already tried, but stop CID error.
I don't think radios can be flashed until we have S-off. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
You have an actual AT&T Vivid that you are trying to use on a carrier in Japan?

I am using Vivid with NTT Docomo SIM in Japan now.
There should just be GOLDCARD which can be used by VIVID...

You need to have the phone sim-unlocked in order to use the simcard. There is no goldcard needed for the vivid.

My Vivid was unlocked Bootloader and SIM.
tel...OK
receive sms...OK
send sms...NG
I don't want to mess this up and I know HTC has different names in different regions so i want to be 100% sure. After i unlock the bootloader do i just use this to get root?
I have the Bell Canada HTC Raider 4G LTE. Want to be 100% sure i got the right thread.
Yep, that will give you root. It will also give you a custom recovery and rom if you want.

There is actually a thread under development that is for rooting the Bell RAIDER with instructions. I would use that post as your guide.

Yeah that is outdated, I ended up following those steps but the new recovery image from thecubed thread and the new root from Pirateghost.
Seems to be good, now i just need to figure out how to remove the bloatware.

If you want to remove bloatware it is very easy. Download a program like titanium backup or no bloat. They will allow you to freeze/remove apps that you don't want. Real easy to use both.
hehe thanks that's what i ended up doing
Glad to hear it!

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

There are several good roms, best advice is to try each because what works good for me may not work for you.
Sent by my WCX powered Vivid
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

Is your phone actually network unlocked? Sim unlocked?
sent from my HTC Raider from XDA Premium.
Current Phones-
HTC Raider. Stock, debloated, rooted, s-off, sim unlocked.
Sony Xperia Play- Stock, debloated, rooted, s-off, sim locked
Past Phones-
HTC Incredible S. Stock,debloated,rooted, s-off, sim unlocked.
HTC HD7. Sim unlocked. That's all I felt was worth doing honestly.
Love me some HTC

You don't need a sim or network unlock for straight talk...just need the straight talk "att compatible" sim
And seeing as its no longer working with the att sim that's pointing to hardware issues...you might've damaged the sim connector pins when removing/inserting the sim cards
