vivid froze on white htc screen

Hey, I'm just doing everything I can to help those who use their phones for phones to those who mod their phones out like crazy. You ever have anymore questions or just want some more info about your HTC Vivid, please, feel free to PM me. And to everyone, PM me with questions, I would love to help. I love this forum. :)

hey do you have a file driver that works for windows 8?

Actually, no. And it is upsetting as well, for some PC's that I'm forced to be around use Windows 8, and no Vivid support. Thankfully, my devices connect to my XP and 7 desktops and laptops. <3

Anyways, sorry, I don't. I've tried looking for a compatible one, but to no avail. It has been a few months since I did, so I'll look again when I have free time.

I know this thread is old but I'm having the same trouble with my phone. Unfortunately the program through dropbox is not compatible with Windows 8. Any suggestions?

1) Look for HTC Sync or something that works with Windows 8.

Or my favorite option...

2) Install Windows 7.

Or, if you know how to...

3) Virtual Machine, run Windows XP or Windows 7.

Why do I keep getting a "needs repair" when I open up the HTC drive ? I have clicked repair it several times and still nothing.

The drivers is not a program to use, you just install them, and done. All it does is put the HTC drivers in the appropriate Windows folder.

the "fastboot usb" is highlighted in red, i dont know why, please could you explain it to me.

That's perfect! Now, on your PC, run the HTC Vivid RUU, and it should connect to your phone.

The "FASTBOOT USB" in red means that the PC and the phone are connected together successfully, and your phone is now ready for command(s).
