HTC Vivid bootloader will not unlock! (HTCdev method)

I just bought a HTC Vivid and am trying to root but I cannot unlock the bootloader. I am doing everything according to HTCdev.com but when I get to the CMD part it will not send the code. I copy and paste it just like it tells me to but instead of sending the code, it says waiting for device? Me and this guy (more experienced than me) have been stumped for the last 3 days.

are you using the cord that came with the phone? what operating system is the computer you are trying to use? are you plugged into a usb on the back of the motherboard? And if you are in hboot what does it show on your screen?

No but I am using a Samsung cord with USB capabilities. I have windows 7. Yes I am plugged into the USB port on my phone. It shows "FASTBOOT USB"

Try the original cord and a different port. May also check you have the right drivers installed

I have HTC Sync drivers installed and I'm not sure where I can get a oem cord. Really don't to spend money and buy one on the internet. I have also tried all the usb ports on my computer. My computer is a Gateway NV55S03u if it helps.

Reinstall or install android SDK and make its working perfectly that is your problem.

When you boot into bootloader mode, and choose Fastboot, then connect your phone to the PC USB, run "fastboot devices" to see if the phone is recognized. It should return a line with some info... should look almost like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If it returns nothing, then maybe you just need to reinstall the drivers (as said above).

I had downloaded the wrong android sdk files. I downloaded jelly bean when I needed ICS. Now I'm installing the ICS files. I will let you know if it works.

Did you install the HTC Drivers for your phone?
Is your phone in bootloader mode?

Is your phone in " fastboot usb" mode when you try to flash token?

is your bootloader/fastboot in fastboot-usb mode?
And if it is, I can only recommend this: Start your phone again and select in settings "USB Debugging". Connect your phone to your Computer and type in "adb devices" in the console. If your phone still ain't appear you made sth. wrong with the drivers. (I had that issue, too but I don't remember what I did :S ) You can try to close HTC Sync if it's still running or you can try to uninstall the whole HTC sync and install them from the Runnymede AIO tool which can be found in our Sensation XL Development forum.

Sv: [Q] root htc sensation xl
You need to uninstall HTC sync after you had been in fast boot USB mode. Sometimes it gives problems.

[Q] Windows cannot recognise my HTC when in bootloader

I am using the HTC One Toolkit but when I select the "Get Token ID" option, I am taken to the bootloader but I get the following message on my laptop...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I installed the correct drivers and have even followed this post with no luck. I also tried different USB cables but no luck there. I even formatted my laptop, re-installed windows 8 and installed all the correct drivers. But nothing seems to be fixing this issue.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
P.S. I have 4 USB ports and they all say "SS" above them (with one saying "SS" with a lightning icon next to it), so I'm not sure if they're USB 3.0 or 2.0.

If the USB ports are blue then they're USB 3 and which may be the cause of the problem you're experiencing.... SS probably means superspeed which is USB 3

Well none of them are blue but a Google search shows that they're ALL usb 3.0
I'm currently trying an alternative method I found in the link I posted in my OP.
