Hello everyone, and thank you for taking time out of your day to read this message.
HTC Vivid (Holiday?)
Android Version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense: 3.6
Kernel: 3.0.16
(If I need to include anything else, please let me know.)
So basically here's what I've done:
1) I've unlocked bootloader with HTC Dev
2) I've used Fastboot Command with WCXRecovery.img
I used a guide that I found somewhere on the internet, which I cannot find now. (Will look for it if necessary for addressing the issue.)
I would have used the All-in-One toolkit, but for some reason I couldn't get it to work (I'm pretty good at being a noob.)
In the guide, I used a Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed but the guide had said to use a su-bin-3.3.0.2-efghi-signed.zip because it just wouldn't work properly
I feel like I should have read more upon doing this.
The problems are: Bad signal, especially when I first did all of this.
When I start up bootloader it states: PH39DIAG.zip image not found, it says this for about 5 lines.
Other than that, the phone runs fine. Any help would be appreciated as I have many questions that I cannot find the answers for.

The 5 lines that occur when you boot into the bootloader are normal. It is checking for files. This feature can be later used when going back to stock. The bad signal maybe just a coincidence try flashing a new rom if you want to. Download the files from the superguide to gain root.

Thank you
The signal is fine. After a couple of hours it went back to normal
I was worried for a moment there.
I have a few questions...
How beneficial is S-OFF?
_
I would like to use the "[ROM][4.1.2][WEEKLY] Official CyanogenMod 10" ROM
With my current setup:
Android Version : 4.0.3
HTC Sense : 3.6
Kernel Version: 3.0.16
Would it be possible to just use that ROM without doing anything else?
I'm currently on S-ON.
_
Last question (I promise.) Would I be able to use any Kernel with that ROM?
Again thank you for your time & patience.
Peace.

What is beneficial about s-off you say. Well first of all you can flash as many roms as you please without having to be near a computer. Also with s-off you can return back to stock using any ruu. You can manipulate the information on the bootloader screen to make it seem like you did nothing for warranty purposes. You can use almost all the roms for this phone without s-off including the one you mentioned. I have onto seen one s-off needed rom still. Most of the kernel will work with the rom you mentioned but do your research before doing so. Also read the stickies into the devolpment section. Might been the most useful 30 mins wasted in your life.

Hi all,
Somenone just gave me a Nexus One (PB99100 / Microp-0c15 / Radio-5.12.00.00 / Hboot-0.35.0017) that has never been flashed or anything, almost brand new (Android 2.3.4 / Baseband 32.50.00.32U_5.12.00.08 / Kernel 2.6.35.7-ge0fb012 / Build 3.11.405.2 CL81940).
Just noticed the weird OS build number compared to other similar phones I saw and I was wondering that the hell was that. Stuck and version 2.3.4 and kind of stinks.
My other question is, can I just follow the Blackrose installation without worries? Cause I see lots of replies on that thread but not too much mention on radios and models that apply, also I guess most of the users have the AT&T version. Kind of confusing for me.
If someone can post here a very high lvl detail of steps to follow, or recommendations on what/how to install I'll be very grateful.
Thanks in advance.
I have already configured all tools and drivers on my pc, and they are working as expected.
you have all the pre requisites met for blackrose. you can proceed with that. read the OP and videos carefully n be very sure of wat u doing, before installing blackrose.
you are good to go

Cool, looks like you have the SLCD variant, flash HBOOTs with caution.

I have a HTC one which I bought from bangkok(I live in India though) and found out here it was actually rooted already with Venom Tweaks (ViperOne 1.2.1) and thus I don't have the original stock phone(Though I don't mind if what I have in mind is possible, that is upgrading). I wanted to try out a different ROM(if that's what it's called, as in the firmware for the phone.. sorry I am relatively a complete novice in this field) and see what it has to offer since I am having a few troubles, like whenever I go in there it asks me to pay and sometimes the screen just kinda freezes when I pull down the slider. So I have a few sorted out questions as below:
1. Is it possible to upgrade or change the basic ROM(ViperOne 1.2.1 in this case) if your phone is already rooted and has superuser?
2. Which is the best ROM for a enthusiast?
Note: I am very fond of knowledge and will love to learn bout all of this so please provide suggestions for a ROM which has the most capabilities and is considered one of the best by a developer who would own the phone, without regard bout the complexity of its features.
3. If any, please include any links/information that I will need to go about this, I will really appreciate the guidance of a senior member to help me by providing links/info bout how to do this step-by-step and sometimes just to clear up a few concepts.
I would greatly appreciate anyone who would help me in this, thanks.
you phone has been unlocked and in it the previous owner installed a Custom ROM and Recovery
1) yes you can update and you should update the ROM to the latest
the latest version of ViperOne ROM is 4.0.1 LINK
2) best ROM decision is totally based in your own opinion
try variety of them and see which one suits your liking
on xda we can't and we should not compare or debate which ROM or Kernel is the best
and for keeping your phone updated (firmware etc), view some these guides

Goodness, I never expected so much info overflow haha, I am really sorry but I am like a complete novice as I said before. Will it be ok to ask a few more things?
So basically, since I will be able to update the firmware(which I am happy bout).. I just need to understand a few basic concepts:
1. What do we mean by updating recovery?
2. what's twrp? what's the difference between twrp and cwp(or that clockworkmod thingy?)?
3. What link do I need to follow exactly? The first one or the second one?
[Note: Currently my phone is on the ViperOne 1.2.1 but I have no idea bout if its S-off or S-on and whatever else I need to know before I start doing this]
4.Some links I was trying to see was talking bout the dual sim htc one, i have the 32 gb single sim version, is there any difference? can i go with files from dual sim htc one links?]
5. If its absolute necessary to know the basic details of everything, any links which would go back to basics such as stripping down basic meaning of many terms used throughout? aorp etc etc, they all just make me feel dizzy haha
Please try to put this down in laymen's language for me if possible? I will be greatly thankful

first of all you should know your device and every detail is mandatory for safety purposes because without knowing the details you can brick your device
some FAQs: link
1 & 2) TWRP is a Custom Recovery just like CWM (ClockWorkMod)
we need to use latest recovery to flash latest Android 4.4 KitKat based ROMs
3) read the link above because it's quite detailed for S-OFF
EDIT: sorry i gave you the wrong links
read this first here
and guide full detailed guide here for achieving S-OFF
you should get S-OFF for flashing latest firmware (for best performance) for your beautiful One
firmware sometimes contains RADIO(signal and WiFi), TOUCH, SOUND, BATTERY etc drivers for best performance
4) you should stick your single SIM model and forums
Dual SIM model is bit different, don't know how but it is different from single SIM
5) as i already said you should know all the details and terms
I am so thankful to you Kamil, you walked me through every step and I greatly appreciate your help, I am really thankful to you for this, you are awesome!!! :good:
Now have ViperOne 4.0.1 ROM with Latest Firmware and EliminatorK kernel along with customized splashshots and boot screens. So awesome! YOU ROCK!
Yes, I need a guide. I used SGH-I337 (AT&T Galaxy S4) with Foxhound ROM and got a new HTC One. Since everything is so different, I need help. I looked around this forum for two days but I still can't understand the anything. I got this T-mobile HTC One 4.4.2 and the phone is basically pure stock. I have no idea about anything, so i'd like to get a straight, step-by-step guide to flash Venom One 4.4.2 ROM. I went to T-mobile HTC One forum, but there weren't so much activities and i ended up asking for help here. Also, an unbrick method will be very helpful just in case. If someone could help me step by step, it will be very thankful. I don't mean to bother people by not reading and asking first, but it is so hard for me to understand.

Read here first mate: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45432325&postcount=2
Basically 3 steps to flashing custom roms...
1. Unlock Bootloader
2. Install Custom Recovery (I use TWRP)
3. Flash Custom Rom.
How to do all these things are covered in the guides I've linked above.
Much better to read two or three times then stuff up and end up with a handsome paper weight.
Good luck.
I'll just add my 2 cents
Make a nandroid backup of your phone before flashing a custom rom. Also make a copy of that backup on your computer in case you wipe your phone.
Use at least TWRP 2.6.3.3 for 4.4 and higher roms.
Another question. Is there a Cyanogenmod installer for 4.4.2?
I saw a one click kinda cyanogenmod installer that automatically unlocks bootloadr and installs cyanogenmod.

It's not going to unlock the bootloader of this phone. You need to do that using HTCdev.com. See the previous links.
Hey guys,
So I recently got the HTC One Remix (the Verizon version of the HTC One Mini 2) and I would like to root it and install a custom ROM for it (preferably Cyanogenmod). The problem is verizon makes it hard to do any of these things and sadly switching carriers isn't really an option any time soon so I am trying to make do.
HTC-Dev reportedly won't work with verizon phones and many of the solutions for the HTC One Mini 2 don't work for the Remix even though they are essentially the same phone. Cyanogenmod has the HTC One Mini 2 listed as a supported device but I am not sure if that will work with the Remix because a carrier is not specified.
I have yet to see anyone who has had any luck, so is there anyone out there at all who is running a custom ROM on a rooted HTC One Remix? If so, what did you use to obtain root (sunshine maybe?) and what custom ROM are you running?
I'm majorly new to this sort of thing so hopefully the solutions are relatively easy so I don't end up bricking my phone.
Any help at all would be much appreciated!

As far as I can see there aren't many hardware differencec between the two phones. The only problem is that at this point there is no other way of unlocking these phones then trough HTC dev. I don't think there is a lot of development going on with unlocking with other methods. How do you know HTC dev isn't supporting your device? Did you check if "All other supported models" in the list?

It a verizon exclusive and HTC Dev doesn't work on verizon phones. The carrier blocked it. There's also a disclaimer somewhere deep on the htc site.
Thanks though. I'm just frustrated because I like the phone but I also really want to root it. I've tried a couple of the easier methods like sunshine and towelroot and those don't work I'm only on 4.4.2 but with my low skill level in this area I'm not sure if there's much I can do. I know s-off and root aren't the same thing but that's supposed to make it easier to find a way to achieve root right?
Aha then i'm afraid there isn't much you can do. Only wait for s-off because but I don't think it is goanna happen. My previous device is a One X and they had a huge user/developer base but never achieved s-off. It seems HTC really did a good job at closing this down.

HTC One mini 2/remix stock recovery
Hi. I might be able help you here.
Here is a link to what I'm pretty sure is the stock recovery. Note this dumb forum won't let me post links, so reassemble this yourself..
h t t p s
w w w . androidfilehost . c o m
/?fid=95784891001615233
Can't remember the exact cmd line.. something like adb flash recovery <file>
Now for the rom, I'll have to see if the link I got it from is still valid when I get home. There's a guy 'jcase' I think on the IRC that uploaded his personal backup that worked for me.
To be clear, the rom is for the HTC One 'remix' - Verizon's branded HTC one mini 2. There is NO working cyanogenmod that I know of.
btw you will need the TWRP recovery to restore from the rom backup when you get it, so the stock recovery might only be useful if the flash still has the recovery image on it.
Certainly worth trying first.
Good luck,
-M
Xda Devs, please we HTC one remix users need a custom Rom and s-off for our device.... We would really appreciate it if you help us

Wireless dont work
Hello, I downloaded the Revolution sense re-release v3.1 rom for my HTC Desire C and install it with the TWRP. The rom is really great. Make the phone work better and lots of handy shortcut, but I have a major problem. The WiFi says Error and does not work!! It never goes on. I am really newbie to these things and this is my first android phone. I'm sorry if this problem is already answered but I haven't found a solution in this forum and I don't know what to do. For now I switched back to the stock as I was before. Is there any case to solve the problem? I really want to use this revolution rom. And something else, whats the main difference between the sense and senseless? Just graphics? And maybe better performance with senseless? I m asking if it makes any difference to my WiFi problem and therefore I should install the other rom?

Try CM10 or CM11 it's better than sense i think.
No, I am going to try flash the boot.img and see what will happen. By the way how do I do it? Like the same way I unlocked the boot loader I suppose. Don't forget I'm a newbie and this is my first smartphone. It was given to my for free some weeks ago. It had serious speed problem. Even when returning in the home status the phone was showing the message "Loading" for 2 secs and then it returned in home status. What I want is to gain some speed. A minor improvement applied with factory reset but with this rom things are even better. Except from this huge problem. I want Nameless or Revolution Roms due to the overclock. I couldn't download Nameless because the download links I found where doing nothing!! So continued with this rom but if I have no luck I will try CM rom. Thanks for the interest anyway.

OK problem solved with flashing the boot.img found in the zip. For those who experience the same problem the command is this: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
But I firstly flashed the boot.img and then reinstalled the Revolution rom. Thank you guys for the help. Thank you Revolution team! Very, Very Good job! Next thing to do is to learn the tweaks and which one should I use.
COME ON NOW!!! I have the exact same problem with the first person! When I activate mobile internet the phone reboots. And when if finishes reboot it reboots again, probably because mobile internet is on and it trys to activate it so the loop goes on! I have to say that I use data roming! I am not aboard, its just the way my mobile network provider works. Please suggest a solution!
No solution until someone makes a proper kernel with updated system. After last official system update, everyone went for cm10 or abandoned this device and everything was stuck here.
