Hey guys i just rooted my HTC Vivid and when i go to install a custom rom which was the CM10 Nightly rom it would get stuck on the cynagen boot logo. Also im using TWRP 2.6 just to let you know. I rooted with superuser 1.25. Thanks please if you can give me a step by step tutorial i would really appreciate it! If you can give me a custom rom link as well! Thanks!
Did you do a full wipe? Data, cache, dalvik all need to be wiped. Did you unzip the ROM and make a copy of the boot.img file and flash it in fastboot? Are you s-off or s-on?

HTC Vivid Virtuous Inquisition Wifi Problem
Yes I did but I didnt make a backup of the boot.img and didnt flash it through flashboot because I dont know how to. Also im S-On. Just to let you know yesterday I did flash virtuous inquisition rom and I flashed it with twrp and it worked! But the only problem was the wifi didnt work so i had to revert back to my stock rom.
Here is the link to the custom rom I really want to flash >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2677301

Before posting an 'I have a problem' thread... You should read...
The boot.img and the WiFi drivers are linked... If you don't flash the kernel... Your WiFi will never work...
It says so on EVERY OP for EVERY ROM...
Please stop only reading the first 2 sentences of the OP and read the whole thing... I am truly getting sick of people asking the same damn questions for over 2 years...

Well I'm sorry sir I'm new to android rooting and flashing and I dont know how to manually flash roms and kernels via Flashboot. So if you could give the instructions I would gladly appreciate it.

There is a 'superguide' provided by slapshot in the dev threads I think... He goes into GREAT detail... About how to deal with all of this...
It would be better to read that instead of the Reader Digest version I would spit out here...

Alright rignfool. If you can still help me I would gladly appreciate it. I recently flashed the kitkat 4.4 rom and whenever I'm for example listening to music on this app called rocketplayer and I go to the homescreen it switches the music input from the headphones to the internal phone speaker. I also tried out a different app but it was the same problem. Furthermore, whenever I used the built in app which is apollo it says dsp manager has stopped working and then says you can blame the split screen. Ofcourse, the split screen isnt designed for the Htc Vivid that I have but how do i stop the problem that im having?

The easiest way ( for me at least) to flash a boot.IMG (kernel) is with Flashimagegui. It's available in the market.......ahem, google play for a buck. Or the creator of the SW has a dl link in his thread for free.

Go into HBOOT (if you don't know how, go look for it! Not handholding you all the way through this), and re-unlock your bootloader. It should boot back into whatever custom ROM you had before.
If you weren't on a custom ROM, download the ICS RUU (or an old GB one) and pray that it works.
If it doesn't work, congratulations, you're the proud owner of a brick! Learn your lesson, and READ next time!

For future reference, its not a brick if you can still power on. If you can get it even to power on, most of the time you can fix it. If you do something and it wont power on, youre done. Soft Brick v. Hard Brick.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498003
Did all the things correctly unlocked/ have CWM-Based Recovery v5.5.0.4 / have super user.
I backed up my factory reset phone so I can put on ROMS.
I downloaded this ROM/ the Google Apps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2026675.
I Wiped Cache partition/ Wipe data and factory reset/ Wiped Dalvik Cache.
SO Now i went to go install my ROM on my Internal SD. Installation successful ect... for both Google Apps and the ROM.
Now I reboot and it's stuck at the htc screen with a green logo and white all around it.
I know how to fix it, it's really simple, but I Cannot figure out how to get a Custom ROM on to my phone it's seriously pissing me off. It seems no one else has this problem I have searched this thread for like ever. If someone could please help me that would be great... I will leave some extra information about my phone on the bottom to that could possibly help whoever is able to help me wiht this problem

Is this really the case? I'm using the beta 2 version I believe..5.8.something with touch..never had a problem...tried twrp before and had issues wiping some parts..mount errors, etc.. so I stuck with this one as I've had no problems. In all honesty I can't even figure out which exact recovery I'm on and I lost the .IMG file I had for it a while back due to having to wipe my PC. Pretty sure its cwm_beta2 if memory serves me. And it works every time. Nandroids too.

Well basically I installed the ROM and it would freeze every 2 seconds btw whats the real reaesoning? I only see another Recovery called WCX is that better?
New Problem guys if you can read the Edit I have made and if anyone has knowledge on this topic much appreciated if someone can help me. I really am so confused as why no Custom ROMS i am installing will not work. ( I fixed the first issue of being stuck at htc screen by flashing boot.img manually in fastboot) I just don't understand that why now it either freezes or just bootloops on any rom i ahve used is there something I am missing?

I don't really understand the question. But no you can not flash anything other than Sprint Roms. ViperOne is a great stock Rom with goodies.

Well theres really three easy ways to fix your problem.
1) buy a gsm htc one from tmo or att&t then you can flash those international roms
2)find rom that has all the mods you want and learn to theme and change to a stock enough look
3) learn to make and mod your own rom
Any one of those will solve your problem

There is a rom specifically called stock with goodies in the Dev section.
I would check out OMJ's rom and mod pack.

Great work. Two things I have rooted by installing cwm recovery then flashing this rom and Google search keeps force closing. I flashed the deodexed version, first I just did a dirty flash, since I was coming from unrooted stock, so I thought maybe ifi go through all the wiping steps, factory reset and then flash but it still fc s. Second thing I thought maybe I'll try the odexed version since I'm coming from stock unrooted and the link won't work. The little green download button pops up but when it's pressed nothing happens then says page won't load. Any ideas?
