Most ROM's take out the Sprint GPS icon, which is indeed annoying, since it stays there even when GPS off. However, it's quite useful to know if your GPS is on when any program that could use it is closed: you might use it to navigate in Maps, but then close out maps, and forget to turn off the GPS, and have the GPS sitting there turned on and wasting battery.

In fact, I hardly need the GPS on the one time the ROM turns it on, because, when I try to do something in Maps (or a similar app) and GPS isn't on, the app will tell me about it pretty quickly.

As for NFC, it has functions that can be used even while an app isn't running. For example, my Sony Smartwatch 2 can allegedly use NFC to pair the Bluetooth connection to the phone automatically, though in actuality this usually doesn't work on the One (I got it to work once).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] j to the 4n:
On a clean install you can choose to remove Sense. That will remove the stock HTC Launcher and it widgets.

After that you got a the possibility to choose a desired 3rd party launcher to install. Nova/ADW or Google Now Launcher.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] adamlee011:
This is the stock kitkat launcher like is on the nexus 5.

Nfc is on if you turn it on in settings. No need for an icon. I find that having gps on and not active doesn't give me a noticeable decrease in battery life. You can put both in heqs and then you'll know whether or not they're on by looking in the notification drawer and then turn then on or off from there. If you forget to turn it on, like you said, it will remind you :) but if you're worried about forgetting to turn it off, use power save mode. You can have it turn everything off for you when the screen is off. I believe you can select what you want it to turn off. And if that isn't enough.... I don't know what to tell you! ;)

Edit : i just want to add something. Like i said, i don't see any difference with gps on all the time but sometimes i turn that, bt, and wifi off before going in to work. Really the only thing that probably makes a noticeable difference there is wifi. Test it out when you've let the rom settle a few days. Also, in general, i get sick battery life out of the rom. Best it's ever been on this phone.

Welcome to the non-Sprint world. Only Sprint displays a GPS icon all the time. It was removed but I don't understand why it should even be restored. Is it because Sprint users are used to it? Because the rest of the Android world doesn't use/need/want this icon.

As for the NFC icon, I have no idea why you would also want this icon but we can look into adding it back as a tweak.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Waheek:
Great Work!

Sorry it took me so long to post this for everyone involved. I couldn't wait 24 hours from the time I brought this phone home before I was unlocked, had recovery, and rooted. I have used this team's work before so I started right here with ViperOne and I don't see any need to keep looking - how does it get better than this? Love the work you guys do - Thank You! Everything works perfect as far as I can tell. :good::good:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bb2si:
Okay so I'm not sure what I changed, but I reinstalled 5.5.0 and battery life seems better for some reason. Maybe a few apps I uninstalled were battery hogging, but I'm content now. I used this ROM on my One Max; loved it there and loving it on my One.

I never had data active (was always on WiFi) all weekend and when I got to work this morning noticed the SprintSpark icon between the LTE and signal bars! Was that intended or did I mess something up? My last install of Viper had the standard LTE with traffic icons. Is there a way to switch it back? I've looked everywhere in the HUB/Tweaks but to no avail.

Thanks...

P.S. When in Tweaks, if I browse over to the Pie Settings, the Venom Tweaks force closes.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] the_mig:
Can you tell me which option you chose to change the color? I'm having the same issue and have tried various color changes but I can't get it to stick. It seems like it changes color after I do something in the app like click on an email, but it always ends up this way when I open the app again.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mrwicked:
Screen on for sms not working for me anymore after taking update.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MTKnife:
You may have misunderstood what I wrote, and at any rate I don't appreciate the condescension: I've used non-Sprint ROM's on Sprint phones before, and I own three non-Sprint devices, though only the Samsung tablet has GPS. As I said before, I agree the persistent Sprint GPS icon is annoying--it serves no purpose when GPS is off, and just takes up space.

My issue is the normal GPS icon: my previous experience has been that the icon stays on whenever the GPS is on. I just checked my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014, and the GPS icon on that, indeed, does not display when it's not in use. I'm wondering now why I'm accustomed to seeing it on my phones: maybe it was only one because I had persistent programs running that used it, like one to monitor the GPS status?

As for the NFC icon, I noted in my previous post exactly why I would want it to display when it's not being used; because it can be used even when no app already using it is running. Thus, someone who wants to leave it running would probably like to know it's still on, while someone considered about the battery drain would like to know it's off. I never use NFC, so it's not a big deal, but that's the explanation--nad I'm pretty sure I've seen the NFC icon on other ROM's.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] fatehavoc:
I think the icons are great the way they are. GPS, when not actively being used, uses a negligible amount of battery, if any at all. NFC I could understand concern as relates to security, but by default NFC doesn't work unless screen is on and unlocked. However, NFC also uses a negligible amount of battery.

I use both and manage toggles on NFC through HEQS and Tasker profiles, with no significant impact to battery life. Just my 2c.

Quiet Hours!

Hadn't seen much appreciation for this yet, so I wanted to say thanks!

Couldn't stand have to use the annoying DND settings.. I'm lazy, so what.

On another note, I tried to register for Venom Hub and got the confirmation email and everything. The problem is my fat fingers hit the "Cancel" link instead of the "Confirm" link. Now I can't get into the Venom Hub app because it won't let me try to register (it shows my email/login but I cant login). Should I clear the data for VenomHub, will that reset it to the login screen to re-confirm??

Thanks again!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MTKnife:
Just found a bug in the Buttons settings:

I have double-tap of the "Back" button set up to invoke the menu action. It works fine in some apps, but not others even when I set the delay to "Long". In fact, if I go into the App Drawer in Nova Launcher and launch one of the apps in question, then double-tap the "Back" button, the phone first backs out of the app (as if I single-tapped the button), and then brings up the App Drawer menu--that is, it's registering both a single-tap, in the affected app, and a double-tap, in Nova Launcher. And yes, I'm seeing this even on some apps that I know for sure do have menus.

EDIT: Assigning "Menu" to a long-press of the "Back" button does work in the apps in question--so the problem is just with the double-tap.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kekoh:
This might not be the solution you are looking for, but if you get a custom kernel they pretty much all have Logo2menu, which turns the HTC logo into a menu button if you press right below the screen/above the logo.

Also, wanted to say thanks to everyone who worked on this awesome ROM. Another update:victory: THANKS!!

Same issue here. I only see red when charging and green when charged. The red charging will even disappear after a while.

Aside from that, the LED won't flash for notifications at all. I tried playing around with the tweaks, but the only one I could find that may help is allow it to blink for notifications when charging, which had no change in behavior. My 'Do not disturb' feature is not being used.

Anyone have any ideas how to get the LED to flash for notifications? Thanks.

What's up turge, im loving the latest viper one release especially the weather sense 4 animation when unlocking the phone.

But I did notice that not only does the animation occur when the phone is unlocked to the homescreen that it's normal to see the animation from the widget,but it also occurs even when you unlock the phone when the phone was locked will an application is running,or not on the screen the widget is on.

That's the only bug I see.

-rename firmware to firmware.zip

-copy firmware.zip to your sdk folder

-boot into bootloader

-plug in usb

-select fastboot option (screen should say fastboot usb)

-type Fastboot oem rebootRUU

-when u see the black screen w/ HTC, type Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

-when it's done, type Fastboot reboot

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] adamlee011:
They should be on twrp folder. I have heard that some have had issues with backups from different twrp versions. Shouldn't though. If for some reason it isn't seeing the sub folder inside the twrp folder, try making a new backup and see if it made a new sub folder. Then that would be the folder backups need to be in and you can copy then from the old folder to the new.

Oooohhhh got it. Are you coming from Android 4.1? the sd was moved to /data/media/0. It WAS /data/media. That's where your files are. You have to move them to the new location. This is because of the multiple user ability added to android. So if you had more users, their storage locations would be /1, /2, etc. You're probably looking in sdcard which is just a simlink to the real location.

---------- Post added at 07:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

In a root browser, move everything in /data/media EXCEPT for the 0 folder, to /data/media/0. If you try to move the 0 folder as well you'll have a real bad time.

It doesn't matter how many users you have. That's just the reason that the storage is no longer mounted the same.

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

Sorry, didn't see this before. In a root browser navigate to your root directory. That's / you said you're using es. Make sure it's in root mode and grant it root access. From the root you should see a bunch of folders. Like data, system etc. That's where we're taking about. If you're looking at the data folder in storage then you're in the wrong place. You probably haven't enabled root mode in es. That will cause es to only show storage.

Edit: one more time do they're no confusion. Once you get to ROOT directory, go to /data/media. Move or "cut" everything in that folder except the folder named 0 and paste it in the 0 folder (/data/media/0) that is the ACTUAL and only REAL path of the "storage card" or internal storage. Any other reference to storage or sd or whatever, is just a link to that path.

Question about S-offing. The first time I attempted with my One, I had the stock kernel. Failed, obviously. The second time I had the kernel that came with this ROM. It passed the spot where it failed the first time, but this time it still failed, but way later towards the end. I'll try and rerun it later today, but I'm wondering if because I updated the stock ROM to 4.4.2 before unlocking/rooting it caused the issue? My One Max was on 4.3 and got S-off to work just fine on the first try. I've been using Rumrunner for both attempts.
