ViperROM 1.1.0 on Sprint.
So, I everything was working fine, until I decided I wanted to put a new tweak on in the MoDaCo toolkit. I did it, and then rebooted the phone. Bootloop. Well, maybe we can just reboot it, and the bootloop will be fixed! Bootloop. Well, we can clear the cache, from TWRP and a cmd propt! Bootloop.
Now, me being the idiot that I am, I didn't keep a backup on my device. It's on my computer. So, is there a way I can get it back on the device from the off state, bootloader, or recovery? Is there a fix for this, even after clearing the cache? I guess wiping the data isn't an issue since I have the backup on my computer, but then how do I get it on the phone?
Help please, as I currently am without a phone!!!
EDIT: WAIT WAIT WAIT... I just booted up after 20 minutes of bootloop. I guess these MoDaCo mods take forever to apply! I now know that for future reference! Jeez I got freaked out! Everything seems to be working fine, but thanks to everyone for their replies if this ever actually does happen!

I would just adb sideload/push a rom to get a working phone, once the phone is working transfer your backup from your PC into your TWRP/clockworkmod folder on your phone then restore it in recovery...

Did you try the steps to disable the xposed framework to get you out of the boot loop and then disable the module that caused it. From the xposed support page:
In case you get into a boot loop:
You can flash the attached Xposed-Disabler-CWM.zip by Tungstwenty. It will be copied to your (external) SD card when you install Xposed as well. The only thing it does is copying /system/bin/app_process.orig back to /system/bin/app_process, which you can also do yourself (e.g. with adb shell in recovery mode).
You could also create a file /data/xposed/disabled, which causes Xposed to be bypassed as well.
Try that. If no luck then you can sideload with twrp recovery from this guide:

Got notification to update to the latest CM, clicked ok on everything, phone rebooted, now stuck on boot screen.
Can enter CWM but nothing functions, cannot choose update from SD or anything.
Please help..

Thanks for the quick reply!
Am not sure I did; I think it asked me if I wanted to back up the current rom and I think I clicked not to. Either way, I cannot do anything in CWM, what ever I choose gets stuck at the little hat with the arrow and I have to pull the battery.
It's not a big deal (I hope at least) to revert back to an original image, as it's my back-up phone so I don't use it daily. Hope it's easier than that though..
I would say reverting back to an original image via the passimg trick would be your best option right now (unless your bootloader is unlocked?)

It is unlocked. Any magic trick..?!
EDIT: I can enter the options in CWM. Being used of the Atrix I was pressing the on/off button instead of the trackball to choose. Ffs.. Anyway, I tried wiping the data, no go; still stuck on bootscreen
I would try restoring a backup if you have one. If not, just do a wipe and clean install...
Unlocked bootloader could've been used to install a new recovery, though that now looks it was operator error... xD

I have kind of the same issue but I am still stuck..
I have an unlocked bootloader and rooted atrix, everything was fine until I installed gingerblur through the cwm ( I chose to install from the sd card ), once I did that it finished what it was doing then I used the reboot feature through cwm. My phone is now not moving past the motorola dual core screen. It still says unlocked at the top left and I can still enter cwm and fastboot. I have read alot about trying to flash through fastboot, but I am sorry I am a newb and do not know how to flash through fastboot. I am desperate for help... any help would greatly be appreciated.
If you can still access recovery, I would try a full wipe and instal again...
Thank you for your response... I did as you said and wiped everything... found a .zip file for android 2.3.4 gingerbread and installed that through cwm. I now have a new question... what is the best way to create a nandroid backup?? I went in android recovery mode on the boot screen and proceeded to backup through the menus and saved it to my external sd card... the only problem is that when I tried to restore back to the backup I made before it kept giving errors while trying to install the backup file. Any ideas how I can successfully create a android backup on this ATRIX 4g??

Same here, I am usually good at doing these procedures... but last night, after loading the recovery (and followed directions from XDA and youtube video exactly), the internal storage was inaccessible from twrp, even though I saved the superuser zip in the download area, it could not be reached by the twrp file browser. In my desperate attempt to fix this, I followed another members poor advice and ended up essentially wiping the phone....
Now, I can boot into fastboot and twrp.... but it does not get past the white HTC start up screen and is stuck there.
If anyone can share a link to the best method to fix this issues, I appreciate it! Whether sideloading a rom, or restoring factory stock, please help!. Thank you.

Feeling very happy with my phone now that it has been fixed.. much thanks to your advice, I was able to look at the posts and video and recovered my device to re-lock, loaded stock RUU, then went right back to unlocking, installing recovery and rom (CM 10.1). 2nd time around worked as predicted.
It took a few nervous moments, but was well worth the effort now that the phone is essentially a nexus 5 like device for me. I will not miss Sense or blinkfeed at all. Never really used Zoe and camera software features.. Could those be installed separately as an additional camera app besides the standard CM supplied version?

I also wiped everything on my phone and formatted the internal sd card with TWRP. I wanted a fresh start and thought I could just mount the internal sd card thru recovery and transfer my rom.zip off my laptop. Very BIG mistake, as I was unaware that TWRP does not mount/format properly! The above quote by Ms. Pinks was the first method that I tried, but did not work because TWRP rendered my internal memory useless.......phone would no longer recognize it. After several hours of failed attempts I just gave up for the night. In the morning, I did some reading on Clockwork Mod Recovery on other forums and it got alot of positive reviews........mounts/formats/wipes partitions properly! It just does'nt have some of the bells and whistles that TWRP does. I proceeded to flash it thru fastboot using the fastboot flash recovery cwm.image command. Once flashed, I was able to boot into recovery and reformat my internal sd card properly! After that, I used adb to push my rom.zip to the card and flashed away! I have tried all the functions in CWM and it works beautifully! (I love TWRP, but there are to many bugs in it's current state.....for this phone at least) Gonna be using CWM from now on. Hope my experience can help some other user's who screwed up too.
Need serious help.
I flashed dirty unicorns and data and sms wasn't working so I tried to restore my phone but TWRP didn't see anything to restore. So desperately, i saw that it still saw my ViperRom zip so i flashed that and now I'm stuck in the splash screen. I tried to get the phone back to recovery with the toolkit and it doesn't see my phone.

I just tried the button combo light trick and was able to enter recovery. but alas I am at a loss what to do now. I still can't see my backups. I'm now doing a standard wipe and reinstalling ViperRom. Please God let this work.
update: Phone is alive.......but, i'm stuck on EVDO and Goomanager doesn't seem to see any of my original stuff. I'm aware this is the 4.2.2 thing but I am not really educated on how to deal with that.

Thanks. Only one question though. I just finished copying my restore from the 0 folder and pasted it, now TWRP can see it and is finally willing to restore. Will the restore solve this issue just as easily or is it that as soon as you flash a 4.2.2 is your system forever changed without this fix? I only ask because I don't want to flash that zip and create a new issue if the restore will quite literally send me back in time to before I even flashed 4.2.2.

ok here it goes
This is the first time i touch this Vivid, a few days ago I rooted it withou issues and has TWRP installed, i also did 2 full backups at that time just in case.
This morning i tried to install a new ROM, CyanogenMod 11 - Android 4.4.2 - KitKat. Basically the steps i took were
1. boot into twrp recovery
2. Did a factory reset
3. Did a System Reset
4. Clared cache and Dalvik cache
5. install the rom
6. install PA gapps
7. booted the phone wich got stuck in the htc screen forever
8. remembered that i was s-off and didnt flash the boot.img
9. repeated steps 1 thru 8 and after that flashed boot.img using fastboot
10. rebooted the phone but it was still getting stuck on htc screen
After all this i decided it was not worth it so i went back into twrp to restore my backup, unfortunately after restoring an booting the phone i am able to go past the htc screen, get the beats audio and att splash screen but it stays there, now stuck on att screen.
I have tried also to restore my second backup with basically the same results
any ideas or suggestions on what could i do next?

Do you know if you had the original Gingerbread or had upgraded to ICS? If you were still on GB, then you should be able to run the RUU for that, if ICS there is an RUU you can install. Read all the directions carefully, most things seem easy but have pitfalls if you are not careful enough.

I dont know what i was running originally. However i am back in business!!!
I found the superguide followed it regarding the RUU and luckily i got my phone to work again.
I want to try flashing the CM11 again, i am guessing that either i am doing something wrong or maybe TWRP is not working correctly on my phone and not flashing the rom as it should.
Any known issues with TWRP and the vivid? shall i try another recovery?
Are the following steps pretty much what i should do to flash it
1. factory reset
2. system reset
3. clearing caches
4. flash boot.img (i am s-on)
5. flash rom
6. flash gapps
any suggestion is welcomed

additional info:
After recovering the phone i decided to lock the bootloader and start all over again. I re-root and then, instead of installing TWRP i used CWM and obviously, got a nand backup.
O tried flashing again CM11 and got the exact same results. Stuck in the initial HTC screen forever. Tried to restore my NAND Backup and the result was also exactly the same as before, phone would get the htc screen, then the beats audio and att animations and then will stuck onthe att screen forever.
This is weird, i must be doing something wrong here...
Reading thru a few times. You did indeed flash the image? fastboot flash boot boot.img on command line. Make sure boot.img was extracted from the rom to the folder you are typing that in. You do that after flashing rom and gapps. It has to be done from bootloader not recovery.
How long are you letting it sit. Had a phone that I thought was doing that, just took a few extra minutes to boot up.
"Small mistake"
Sorry for your problem, I think there was a small mistake before installing CM11, and was what you describe in step 3 "Did a System Reset" when the installation instructions say: "Wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache". I'm afraid you can only recover your VIVID through JTAG on any site that offers the service, it seems you deleted your operating system. The other option is to try [unbrick] HTC Unbricking Project By dexter93 developers forum, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1627886;
All the best. Just a recommendation, read, read and read each post and comments to take no surprises. Good luck.:fingers-crossed
I would appreciate your comments
I don't think that post is relevant. You still have access to bootloader and recovery right? Then it isn't bricked.

Yes i do have access to bootlader and recovery, i actually was able to bring back to life the phone using RUU. So the issue now is not that the phone is bricked but that anything i try to load on it fails, being CM11 or even the NAND backup that i took with this same phone just after installing recovery, nothing seems to work.
I was googling around and so another person that had similar behavior on his vivid but didn't posted if he was ever able to fix it...

CM11 kicks ass. http://69.10.54.187/nightly/holiday/ is where you might find the latest nightlies.
Seems to be the only vivid rom that has been worked on for a while.
First time I tried running a custom rom I had a similar issue to what you experience. Do you happen to be on bell? After restoring with the RUU and unlocking again, all went well.
The best guide is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836 but just use it as a guide line and use this software instead.

I have an HTC One on sprint, running a CM11 nightly. While I liked it for a while, due to business aspects, I need to go back to iphone. I am just gonna trade someone I know for my HTC for their iphone. I guess what i was wondering is what is the process of returning it back to stock? They still want root access, just not a custom ROM. I'm S-ON, HBOOT 1.56.000, Radio, 1.00.20.1100, and OS 4.06.651.4.
I'd like a step by step process hopefully (not an expert on androids, more used to iphones). But i do have some experience with cmd. I was also wondering if I turn it back to stock, will i lose all of my data (contacts, photos,etc.) I know you lose apps, but when I flashed to CM11, I backed up with TWRP, and then had to use CWM, so i couldn't restore my contacts. I do have a backup of my original ROM before i went to CM11 in TWRP, but I had to flash to CWM, so I'm not sure if it's still there.
Also, if they wanted to keep the CM11 on it, would there be any problems switching phone numbers and whatnot on it? I'd assume not because it still has an IMEI, but just wanted to make sure.
Find a flashable zip of twrp and if you didn't delete it ur backup of ur stock rooted should work...u have to have Sprint base Rom to swap phones so NO cm11 will not work when you go to trade phones

I tried to reflash twrp. It wouldnt work. it wouldnt recognize touches.
So if I want it all stock, except for root, can I use an RUU? I know it wipes everything, but better than nothing. plus i could sync with htc manager and get everything i had back.

what version of twrp did you flash, should be 2.6.3.0 or higher. thus the touch problems, you don't need to ruu.(openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7wls.img)

I used that originally i believe. So if I re-flash my recovery to twrp, I can restore from my back up, even if I was rooted? and would i still have CM11, or stock sense?

yep, you'll still have the same rom after flashing recovery til you restore a previous backup, you can back up cm 11 too.

I'm selling it and the person wants a stock rom, but also rooted. So Would I have sense or CM11 if i flash my twrp and restore my backup?

I tried using the twrp manager from the play store but it says I'm not supported. 2.7.0.0 is the latest. It shows the backup i have though. Does anyone know where I can download it from and flash it onto my phone?

should i erase my cache first?
Or just plug it up, go to bootloader, and flash it, then restore?

tried to no avail. I tried and it was stuck on HTC logo for 15 minutes. I reflashed to CM11, and im downloading the RUU now to completely wipe/restore it. Unless i did something wrong? I erased cache using adb, then booted up, restored my stuff, and it said successful, but it was on the htc logo. I tried again to the same thing. then i reflashed cm11 and it worked. did i forget to do a factory reset before i restored everything? it said it wiped stuff before it restored it.

after you erased cache did you flash recovery, then reboot recovery and restore a backup
when you are on the htc logo hold the power button down til it reboots and see if it goes past the htc screen
you don't have to factory reset to restore a rom just hit restore and select the backup

I flashed recovery, then erased cache, then rebooted to recovery, and restored a backup. when it said successful, i rebooted from there, and it vibrated on bootup, but stayed at the htc screen for a while. I held the power button and rebooted. same thing.

I'm gonna try an RUU. I'm downloading the latest one right now (4.06.651.4 i believe). I'll let you know how it works out. since i'm S-ON, all i need to do is relock boot loader and then run the RUU correct?
