If you have unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom recovery then you can boot to recovery and backup your current rom. You can then flash a custom rom with superuser and see if it works.
Good luck.

The OP stated that he has Revolutionary S-Off HBOOT so flashing the boot.img is not necessary.
Have you tried flashing the stock, rooted ROM in my signature as others have suggested on some of your other duplicate posts?

The link that you have referenced was uploaded by a member who is no long associated with Team Viper and I for one do not feel that it would be right to upload and repost this ROM without Team Viper's consent or knowledge. That's just how I roll and hope others in this forum would agree.
I suggest you choose another custom ROM from the Development section.

Ok guys my problem is solved I installed vipervivo 2.5.3 succesfully and it seemed like my phone got into sleep mode that's why it timed out... Downloaded and installed successfully thanks all for the help

Sorry forgot to post someone said that I can flash roms directly in cwm if I have revolutionary s-off without flashing the boot.IMG in fasboot I didn't knew I could do that with s-off because I don't have s-off really long (only 3weeks or less) and my last flash was 1.5months ago so thanks for telling I didn't knew that xD

I think the xda hero wiki has a link to a ruu.zip that you can flash from recovery or maybe bootloader. Its buried in the dev section but its linked in the wiki.

Neither of these methods are working, HERCIMG.ZIP just keep saying No Image! and the second method has no option to restore a nandroid backup that I can see, clockwork only shows backups that it performed itself and wont show the new folder I dropped in there.
Im running stock Hboot and stock radio, what the hell am I doing wrong?

Are you without a pc? If you have a pc and can connect,then go to the Htc website . Download the Htc sync pakage,install it the download the latest RUU and connect your phone and reinstall the RUU should take about 10 -15 mins. You will be un-rooted.
I think there's a Free App on the Market that Claims it Unroots!

Incredible S Root?

I spent literally 7 hours trying to root my phone. I tried Alpha revX, the new superoneclick and this other method. I cant seem to get it. Maybe because I am just really tired but this is getting really frustrating. I managed to get my phone to S-OFF with Alpha rev but nothing else. Anyone have any successful attemps .. please tell me I am dying over here
Thanks!!

AlphaRevX only gives you S-OFF and I believe can now install ClockworkMod. To actually root your existing ROM, use need to flash rmk-superuser-v1.0.0.zip using ClockworkMod.
Ok so not to sound stupid but what do they mean by flash it to your phnne?

In this particular case, Flash = Use ClockworkMod to install a zip file that you have copied to your SD card.
So the order here is install clockwork mode first in order to root.my phone ?

Sorry, I thought the current version of the AlphaRevX software allowed you to install ClockworkMod, too. If you didn't install ClockworkMod during the AlphaRevX S-OFF process, then yes you need to install ClockworkMod Recovery in order to install the rmk-superuser zip file.
Yeah I can't believe I pressed.no when it asked me to download it. Would have saved me a lot of trouble .. now i am downloading the Android ask and avd manager to door my phone.

Would it be possible to go through the s off procedure again so that i can press yes this time .. or is that not recommended

I'm not sure it will let you get that far. AlphaRevX will detect that you are already S-OFF and exit the program from what I understand.
Why on earth is it so difficult to download recovery and root the phone. Ive been at this for another 3 hours and got nowhere. I am not a total noob but I am following Alphas instructions and it is saying that my recovery image isnt there when I boot in fastboot mode. Arrrghhhh!
Any other suggestions?

Problem installing niks trinity senzationXL 2.5 ROM

Hello guys,
I can't flash this rom and i didn't find anyone having the same problem.
I followed the instructions precisely, did the wipes before flashing the rom.
But when i flash it in recovery, the install progres goes to about a half, than it stops, freezes. After a couple of minutes the phone restarts and gets stuck at the whitescreen with the htc logo.
I am coming from mike's arhd latest rom, which is the first the first custom rom i've ever installed on my phone...i'm a noob.
Please help, i can't figure out what the problem is...cheers.

Did you wait 5 minutes at the htc screen to see if it boots?
Which version of recovery are you using? Please update the latest version of recovery is recommanded.

Yes I also think that way, not related to the ROM, but I believe is due to the compatible of the version of recovery vs ROM.
Try to use ROM manager update your CWM recovery, and do the step again, I believe you can flash it this time.

[Q] Wild child recovery updated now wifi doesnt turn on

alright so my htc vivid has the wildchild recovery but is not rooted (i really dont know why but it says it isnt on root checker) and ever since my phone randomly updated its recovery my wifi won't turn on.

install superuser app and see if root works after. and you most likely need to flash a kernel through recovery to fix the wifi

Don't listen to him ^^ WildChild's site will give you the best help there.. but you did something wrong... on his site download the instructions and follow them everything works fine.
What? Obviously he is missing the files that flashes with the kernel if it's not working and yes if he followed the guide everything would have worked

To the OP what are you trying to do? Please elaborate more. Did you flash a rom and only flashed the WCX recovery? Wildchild always provides the boot.img with his roms that need to be flashed via fastboot regardless if you are S-Off. Are you rooted? I would not flash a recovery until you can confirm root.

U need to extract the firmware from the ota update and rename it to PO68IMG.zip and put it on the root of the ext sd card not in a folder and go to bootloader using volume down and power key. And install it so u need a firmware lol
