Does anyone know of a working cyanogenmod ROM for the vivid? On there site its not on the device list yet
Also on a side note, I have unlocked the bootloader and have perm root. Do I need S-off and if so how do I do it?
Be patient. It was just unlocked and developers are getting to work.
Soon there will be awesomeness coming to the development forum.

seriously? it got unlocked yesterday and you think there would already be a CM build?
the only way to get a working Cyanogenmod right now would be for you to build it, because it doesnt exist.
right now there is no S-Off yet
**EDIT**
dont mean to come off like a **** with this post, but a Cyanogenmod release literally doesnt happen overnight....and they wont support it until someone does the work of getting it built and working on the device.
Well since other carriers were unlocked before yesterday I didn't know if someone had already been working on it...
Also this is my first android so just a heads up for any other newbies when I used the HTC dev site to unlock the phone it resets the phone wiping your data

I chatted w/attn1 yesterday and he said if we'd get him a Vivid, he'd build CM7 for it.
Saw a page calling themselves htcvividforum.com that said they could put the inspire cm7 on the vivid, and pointed to this XDA thread for the Inspire 4G: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226584. I was wondering if anybody had tried that? I have my doubts, being it's a different phone and all.... maybe I am cross eyed and can't read.
The link to the page that claimed this:
www.htcvividforum.com/custom-roms/bbmod-rom-beta-v1-3-3-cm7-nightly-w-treats/msg71185/?
That site is pretty bogus. It's a clone of http://www.htcinspireforum.com, which, if you go to it, shows identical posts with "vivid" swapped for "inspire". I wouldn't try flashing an ace build to your Vivid.
the ACE and the HOLIDAY are not even close to having the same hardware.....i agree with kxhawkins, the site is bull****
the first clue to the exact link that you posted:

dude stated that he installed a rom on a phone that wasnt even released to the public for another month?
Wow, fast replies, thanks. I wasn't brave enough. I've read your warnings, etc, so I knew something was up!
Well, back to waiting patiently for cm9. "C'mon ice ceeam!!!"
#Edit#
I didn't even think to check the date on that other site. Good to know for future endeavors.

Hi Guys,
Sorry if i am bugging with the same old query of a salsa update of ICS or any update above 2.3.5!
Has anyone updated salsa above its official release via rooting to ICS or anything else? Is it stable or any faults or is it bricked?
If its is a positive answer, can you guide me appropriately? I am bored of the old version and seeing all the similar configuration sets getting an ICS, i am depressed. Please drop in your comments.

lol. OK ill explain it fully for you below
1-HTC Dropped updates for this model 1 yr after production
2-HTC Stopped Production of this phone a few months ago
3-HTC will never release anything for the Salsa officially above 2.3.3
4-Any Rom that's Based on Official Salsa will be 2.3.3
5-Any rom that's 2.3.5 is a Port from another device, normally the Wildfire S.
6-Any rom that's 2.3.5 based either 2.1 sense or 3.5 sense will have faults and isn't fully matched to the Salsa so don't complain when something is missing or goes wrong.
7-The Salsa HTC kernel is believed to be OC'd already, so modification will be difficult but is being worked on.
Please think yourself lucky. There's 2 Working devs for this Phone...Me and razor...and I'm working my backside off trying to create things for you guys...My main purpose is to get a working CM7 and that's my mission.
If you want ICS you will have to wait a long time.....first comes a kernel...then comes cm7, after that..heavy kernel mods to allow cm9/cm10 (ICS).
Other than that my friend....change handsets if you want ICS
But honestly...there's nothing you can do...how you think the rest of us feel...I'm bored...very bored of this phone..but will persist till CM7 is on here....
Thanks for the reply.
I consider this one what you said about salsa optimistically.. I consider it LIMITED EDITION
However i understand its config part and am worried, anyways i am wishing you guys all my luck to develop a CM& for salsa..
Wishing your mission to be a success at the earliest

I'm new here and this is my first android phone, so I'm sorry if I'm asking something already said, but what stop us from port CM7? I mean, the bootloader can be unlocked, we have the kernel's source and it's the same android's version. I use Linux since 2007 and I'm a CS student but I have not found many resource and I'm not a genius lol. If I could help somehow I would be very happy, I bought the device two weeks ago (bad choice I now lol, I didn't know it was already old) so it's completely stock if you need to look up some config files lol.

it does work, but as with other kernels, other devs have tried to adapt there modified kernel to ours...and it just don't wanna work.
this is why we have bootable cm7's but neither work due to the kernel not working correctly. ie touchscreen modules have to be corrected before the rom can be made to work. we are working on cm10 though in the development section, its gonna take time...

Was thinking if we can ask help from someone to help us out with the kernel... do u know anyone???
thought you have to give up, htc got much new phones to maintain, and they haven't finish keeping one x more stable yet
the only thing htc does right is release the unlock bootloader,
but i got to say this phone still sucks after unlock, root and everything make this phone better i did
IT JUST SUCKS
But still troubling them by mailing them is a good idea....

I guess that's exactly whats being done in the development section. BigBear and Darkhorn are doing just that
It seems after several days searching the net that I am the only person on earth with this phone, who wants to root anyway. Does anyone have custom recovery for this phone so I can root? Or ever the stock recovery because I flashed the gsm cwm by mistake and now can't get into recovery. Thanks

After reviewing all the helpful advice I've received over here at Xda (I'm being a smart ass) and lots of Google searches I've learned what I need is to flash an ruu for my phone. I've seen threads here where someone decided to be helpful and posted ruu downloads for the desire c gsm, but I'm cdma. Where can I get my ruu? I was told htcdev.com but all the is for my device are kernel source, is this what I need to get the ruu? I know everyone here is much better then me, and no doubt way cooler, but please don't let that stop you from just typing a few lines and helping me out. I promise, I will bow down and exalt the new gods of XDA DEV. Thanks.

I was trying to root and flash cm my last two phones couldn't get cm so I've been looking forward to seeing what all the hype is about. That's why I bought this phone, because I read that there was cm for it. but now that I know there is no recovery avaliable I guess I'm going stock until one becomes avaliable or I can make one. I guess if I have a working ruu to restore my phone with if something goes wrong I could still root at least
I've downloaded all the dev tools and am tracking down reading / resources to aid in the learning process. Any suggestions? I'm experienced in HTML but that's it. Thank you for responding I'm glad to be here at XDA and I will have useful things to continue on the future if I'm allowed to learn and others are willing to point me in the right direction at least.

There are 4 custom recoveries. And a stock one in the untouched ROM ( I don't currently have the link to it)
Here are the three i found:
Touch recovery
CWMR
TWRP
If your problem is something else, please clarify as i am really slow xD
As to learning process, as ive said before, start off with just testing stuff. Then move on to what you want to do first, in my case it was a kernel that is neatly organized. For all i know you might want to develop apps or themes, thats your choice :3. Have fun and ask me further questions over skype or facebook in my details.

All of those or for gsm phones. My problem is that my phones cdma. I've already tried that just not even thinking and that's why I now have no recovery. I want to root but I'm not wanting to risk it till there's a recovery. Anyway unless I get a one click to work on this phone, I don't think any do, if have to get into recovery anyway.

Best place to be would be in the viper one thread. Afaik there are issues with Sprint, as i said though, that is the best place to ask.
So long as you are in a position to flash a rom, obtaining one with the ability to use the HTC logo as a menu key shouldn't be too much of a hassle.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2334294
There are generally less roms available for Sprint phones due to the use of CDMA (Verizon & Sprint) 3G technology as opposed to GSM (AT&T & TMo). There are parts of CDMA that make it harder to make roms for the phones until they release all their sources, which carriers are very slow at doing.

Hey guys
Im sure I'm not the only one who's thinking this but I really wish I purchased the original mini. The reason for this is the only ROM at the moment for this device is CyanogenMod and nobody seems to be making one. Anybody else feel this way?
Also just in case are you involved or do you know anyone making ROMs for this phone?
Thank God that we have at least cm.... I agree with you, and since I have this phone from July, I have been asking for roms since the first day, but this device isn't so popular yet... Vi there are kernels and mods, better than nothing. This forum sometimes is dead for weeks, I wouldn't be surprised that there is no interest in development
You guys really want a custom rom ?

Absolutely.... Preferably lollipop xD
@Will972 is one of the biggest contributors, as he gave us stock roms for every update
A sense rom based on lolipop will be planed soon on 2015 .. we must first have a kernel dev for a possibility to have it earlier but we don't have it.
The only thing we can have is a custom rom with 4.4.2 base
I just miss xposed since there is no idiot rooting guide.
I will make a rom with some stuff like xposed and sense 6.0 toolbox and maybe harman kardon mod instead of boomsound

I know rooting a HTC is not as easy as rooting a Samsung but still it is not hard. The most annoying part is unlocking the bootloader, but even this is easy, but killing time. Once this is done, you need 2 files: twrp recovery

HI indy140
You are not the only one thinking this, read my Statement(s) under Johann A. Sutter in this Forum!
I have made the same experience, for some reason or another it is obviously, that it is not so interesting (or to complicated) for developers to keep them busy with this device!
Good Luck, I'm keeping myself busy, to buy another one, looking before, if there are already valuable possibilities, to be my own Boss about my property.
