I'm having trouble with Xposed on my M8 using ARHD 43. After installing Xposed and wiping Davlik it will boot up fine after 10 minutes of optimizing apps. The next reboot will get stuck on the HTC Logo and the only fix is to wipe Davlik in TWRP and re-optimize again, subsequent reboots without wiping Davlik continue to fail.

Installing the Xposed uninstaller .zip and wiping Davlik again yields the ability to reboot as many times as I want without issue, so there is something about building the Davlik cache with Xposed installed that causes the system to be un-rebootable.

As best as I can figure, this first started happening after installing [XPOSED][MOD][5.0+] MobileRadioActiveFix. I have sense uninstalled the module, but perhaps the changes it made are persistent even when Xposed is uninstalled/reinstalled?

I did not create a Nandroid backup prior to installing the MobileRadioActiveFix module and would have to do a lot of re-installing and setting up if I were to restore /data from an older backup. Restoring just /system to a pre-Xposed state and re-installing Xposed did not remedy the stuck boot logo problem.
[One (M8) Android Development] rowley birkin qc:
Do you have the Xposed module Amplify installed?

That is known to give a lot of problems, just like the ones you describe.

I believe that a simple uninstall of Amplify and a reboot should solve it.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahac85:
What version of xposed framework do you have installed? I have amplify installed and don't have these issues on latest version, but did on previous versions of xposed. I also have that radiofix module installed, no issues.

Anyone had a problem with non-transparent navigation bar?
[One (M8) Android Development] demi9od:
Interesting. Disabling amplify has allowed me to perform a number of reboots in a row without issue. I'll miss the ability to limit NlpCollectorWaeLock and NlpWakeLock for sure though, is there any alternative?

I have Xposed Framework version 74 and Amplify 3.0.9.

Luckily I did find a way to more easily troubleshoot than 10 mins of optimizing apps after a Dalvik wipe: delete the file /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/modules.list in TWRP file man.
[One (M8) Android Development] ahac85:
Did you use titaniun backup to restore amplify or its data? I use to have problems booting up, but since latest xposed framework and xposed beta4 app and clean install of all apps never once had any issues. Battey lifes been great aswell

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
What version M8 do you have? EAME, US, Asia? It's possible, if you have a US phone, that the partition sizes etc are different. ARHD doesn't play well with Sprint or some other US versions.
[One (M8) Android Development] S-off M8:
I'm using the unlocked international version, SuperCID (don't know if it matters)
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
Guess you should RUU back to stock to fix all the partition problems you have.

After that you could flash back your recovery and rom of choice.
[One (M8) Android Development] S-off M8:
Thanks. Would it then be safe to restore data from a nandroid backup?
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
Not from a nandroid, I guess. Maybe from a Titanium but I wouldn't restore a nandroid if you have all that issues.
[One (M8) Android Development] @di:
So Mikey? ????
[One (M8) Android Development] demi9od:
I may have the first time, but have since wiped data for Amplify, uninstalled, and re-installed from Play Store. I'll boot up fine with Amplify until I launch it once and it goes through the 'let's see if everything is ok' setup, then subsequent boots fail. Maybe I need a Kernel that enables selinux permissive mode.
[One (M8) Android Development] elpicard:
Hi. I already post some question in the General Help thread. But I want to double check before going S-Off. Im in Argentina and I need the LTE band 4, its look like Tmobile and AT&T has it according to GSMarena.

Is the firmware in this ROM able to handle those bands? also I think that is the one that I have now.

The plan according to the advice from [MENTION=660462]redpoint73[/MENTION] (thanks again) is to S-off, change MID/CID (to MID AT&t; CID to super CID), and then I will flash this ROM.

am I missing something?

Well am using stock kernel if it helps

Sent from my HTC One_M8
[One (M8) Android Development] demi9od:
Your signature links to ElementalX kernel? To be honest kernels are the one thing I've never really explored so I am hazy on how they work. Would AT&T OTAs to 4.4.3 and 5.0.1 have updated my kernel? Would installing ARHD 43.0 have? I guess if you've got Amplify working consistently with ARHD 43 and Xposed v74 on your M8, I should probably just start fresh and try again, god knows I've spent more time troubleshooting than it would have taken to start over.

Can't find it on the ARHD pages. If this is against policy, I will remove it.

---------- Post added at 00:42 ---------- Previous post was at 00:36 ----------

OTA and installation of ROMs will change your kernel until you flash an alternative one. I use ElementalX kernel and it must be flashed after the ROM is flashed. You can also set the SElinux mode to permissive when flashing .
[One (M8) Android Development] redpoint73:
You're misunderstanding the term "firmware". When talking about firmware (particular radio and band support) this has

nothing to do with the ROM

. Flashing a new ROM will

not

change band support on the device.

On past devices, some folks have used the term "firmware" interchangeably with ROM. But on the M8, you should erase that idea from your head.

When talking about "firmware" for this device, folks here are most usually referring to the modules that get deployed with OTA updates in

addition to

(and not including) the ROM. The firmware includes hboot, radio, WiFi, and a variety of other modules.

Its explained a little better in the following thread. But be aware that I am only linking this thread for its general information/description of what firmware is. The actual firmware collection the thread links to does not contain current (lollipop) firmware for AT&T and/or T-Mobile.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2696282

Note, that in addition to the LTE Band 4 you are seeing, you will want to verify that the firmware you flash supports the 3G (HSPA) band(s) used by your carrier. As these phones will often fall back to 3G when LTE is not available, you do not want to be left with a firmware that does not support your carrier's 3G band(s).

Do the research and tell us what 3G bands your carrier uses, and we can possibly direct you to the proper firmware zip.
[One (M8) Android Development] demi9od:
Thanks. I had no more success running the ElementalX kernel. SELinuxModeChanger app still reported I was in Enforcing mode after selecting Permissive during the Aroma setup of ElementalX, and I was still boot looping.

Fortunately I had luck with SkyDragon+M8+Sense501+Kernel+V3.1.7.zip. This Kernel boots past the HTC Logo screen quickly every time and SELinuxModeChanger reports permissive. Animations are a little choppier than with the ARHD or ElementalX kernel, and I haven't been on it long enough to notice anything else, but Amplify is no longer causing me to boot loop.

Edit: Welllll fffffffffff. Stuck on reboot again after 3 successful ones with the SkyDragon kernel. Guess I am going to try the whole SkyDragon ROM now. Sigh. Just extremely weird how it will reboot some times and get stuck others. With zero changes between reboots.
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
Just get rid of Amplify. Your problems will be gone.
[One (M8) Android Development] elpicard:
3G:*850 / 1900

4G:*Banda 4*(AWS, 1700*) /*Banda 28*(APT700, 700 MHz**)

The band 28 is for the future, but I let it for reference.

I thought that this lovely ROM includes a WWE firmware that includes the mentioned bands.
[One (M8) Android Development] redpoint73:
You are correct, in that AT&T or T-Mobile US supports the bands: 3G 850 and 1900, LTE AWS.

Based on specs posted online, the only variant that supports LTE Band 28 is the Asia models (which does not support LTE AWS band). So if this is to be deployed in the future for your carrier, I'd not worry about it until that happens.

So you will want AT&T or T-Mob US firmware; which one exactly, depends on what ROM (Lollipop, etc.) you are currently running, or intend to run.

The firmware is not included in the actual ROM, if that is what you mean. Its flashed separately.

The firmware thread I linked in my last post is by the ARHD developer. He posts it separately from the ROM.
[One (M8) Android Development] elpicard:
I will check the firmware post later at home. I would like to have the latest available. Thanks for the support.
[One (M8) Android Development] redpoint73:
For AT&T firmwares, you can get them with the following ROM. Latest (Lollipop) AT&T firmware is 4.28.502: http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365

For T-Mobile, I don't have a link for that firmware. But you'll want to look for (Lollipop) firmware 4.20.531
[One (M8) Android Development] demi9od:
Thanks Einwood. I think I'll do just that until the author releases an update. ElementalX and ARHD just seem too good a combo to ditch for a little better idle drain.

Hi Guys, a quick question had a quick search through the forum unable to see the problem raised before. Currently running arhd 43.0, having problems with sdcard. Being unable to delete anything from the card. Things delete within es explorer and following reboot. They reappear. This is with a 64gb sandisk micro sdcard. It's now done this twice with two brand new sdcards. Sdcards become corrupt after about 4-5months use. Can't even format the card via the phone. It does it but data remains there. Tried formating card on pc no joy. Card useless. Old data still but you card add or delete. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. But don't want to keep shelling out money on cards every few months.

[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
There are various utilities for checking md5 numbers on files. I have a small utility on my computers for doing so. Here is a similar one: http://winmd5.com/

Simply point to the file you want to check and this does the rest. If it doesn't match, then the download is probably corrupt, simply download again and check again. Bear in mind, sometimes the md5 posted is wrong, so if you get a lot of wrong hits, ask the original poster to check the number they have posted.

Good news, we will receive Android Marshmallow according to the tweet from HTC.

Tweet from [MENTION=223784]HTC[/MENTION]: https://twitter.com/htc/status/648906367713996800

We're roasting marshmallows this fall! We'll begin our [MENTION=5711379]ANDROID[/MENTION] 6.0 rollout to devices before the end of the year.
[One (M8) Android Development] Darkseth:
Well.... We were also to receive 5.1 with Sense 7 in August. Nothing so far, not even an official announcement, that they wanna skip 5.1 for 6.0.

And since the One mini 2 never receiver even 5.0, despite beeing announced.... HTC isnt that great lately in terms of Updates.

Anyway.... I think this sheet with 6.0 still seems realistic. I personally hope for an early 6.0 GPE Rom in 2-3 weeks, which i will use, untill Sense 7 is paired with 6.0 before christmas.

I finally decided to take the plunge, as I'm tired of waiting for HTC to release a Sense 7 ROM for the M8. All in all, a great piece of work. It's nice to be able to use the theme tools fully, and it does feel like there was a bit of a performance boost. The only issues I've found so far have already been noted (the Music app is partially broken, so I switched to Shuttle) or fixed (WiFi hotspot, stagefight fix, etc.) Everything else is working great.

I would suggest that a link to the corrected WiFi Router APK be put closer to the beginning. I found it after using the search function, but that is likely a common issue. Also, I know the stagefright fix isn't unique to this ROM, but it worked flawlessly, so a link to that might be helpful as well.

The only question I had was that HTC Service Pack was installed and running. Is this ROM capable of taking HTC OTA updates? I noticed that the "Software Update" button is missing in About, so I found that rather curious.
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
There is no OTA capability with this ROM. When one appears, mike1986 is very quick to have it implemented and a new version of the ROM is released. 99 times out of 100 all that is required is a dirty flash of the new ROM unless there's a major baseband change. Enjoy ARHD.

Saved my M8! I don't know what went wrong when I updated my STOCK M8 OTA. It just went into bootloop. And I couldn't factory reset nor restore from backup (as backup not showing in TWRP). So I finally decided to flash this ROM. Lucky me! It works! Thanks a lot!

ADB USB debugging - permission denied

Hello everyone,

at first- thanks for this rom, i'm using it since my one m7.

On my m8 i've discovered a weird circumstance: Everytime i conncect my phone to my computer via usb-debugging, it asks me to allow the connection. it doesnt matter if i hit "Always allow from this computer", it asks me every time. Also, when i try to run a application directly from Android Studio on my m8, it just displays "Adb Transfer Protocol Error. Permission denied". I did a clean install, changed nothing.
