Following the steps isn't always enough. I mean, they have to succeed, right.
[One (M8) Android Development] hbt15:
This firmware/wifi issue is ruining this thread! Makes it very hard to hunt out the responses to questions that are actually useful and obscure than can actually help people with real problems.

Granted there is a disclaimer in the header of every page but clearly most people are missing it which is easy to do.

Probably wouldn't hurt to have something in bold/red (or both) directly above and below the download link in the first post so everyone actually sees it. Then they can be flicked off to a firmware related thread to ask questions and not hang here wasting page after page. I notice other ROM's do this and their threads seem to have a lot less banter with the same thing over and over and over again.

Every time a new ROM drop there is 30-40 pages within the first 24 hours and 90% of them are needlessly taking up space. Yes people should read everything first but reality is they don't.....so the warning needs to be more prominent.

My 2c.

So, my movements:

1. I have been unlocked bootloader, S-ON & ARHD 11.2

2. I used SunShine from Market & 25$)

3. Installed new firmware.

4. Then flashed over ARHD 20.1 without wipe.

5. All works fine!

6. Thx to Mike!)

FHas anybody noticed very slow WiFi transfer speeds or complete drop out of transfer on new Rom tried esfile explorer and fx explorer all was working well in 11.2 also I have very slow transfer speeds between sd to external sd

Yes I have updated firmware as I did before for 11.2 thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] shaunhoop1981:
Can anyone confirm data transfer issues on 20.1 between sd and external sd tried moving a 1gb file across and speeds start ok then drops slowly down to nothing then it cancels
[One (M8) Android Development] fasst:
All fine here. Copying from ext to int with approx. 36 MB/s.

From int to ext it drops but the last 50% is stable around 13 MB/s. I used ES FileExplorer.
[One (M8) Android Development] shaunhoop1981:
I'm using file explorer to I admit I did dirty flash I'll try clean install thanks for looking though
[One (M8) Android Development] race4life:
Download is slow as !!

I accidentally wiped my SD card trying to fix an FC issue by factory reset. Now redownloading the ROM to do a full wipe -install. The download is really slow. I started it 3 hours ago and its still only 30% done. does anyone have a better mirror than the whats in the downloads section?

Mike, the battery life is even better than 11.2...

From 99% using widget reborn as indicator, its 1 Day 5hours

With 20.1

Same indicator, 1 day 14 hours

Dunno if the widget right or wrong... This rom is awesome, thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] ALiENr0x:
Hello, i flashed from recovery this rom, maybe because my m8 was not updated ( it was still 4.4.2 ) i don't see boot logo , smartphone stuck on first HTC logo with red writes in down side , and in 3-4 minutes it's starts directly to the lockscreen and it works perfectly , how can i fix this? need i to flash latest bootloader or something? Thank you
[One (M8) Android Development] race4life:
OK thanks. I will wait for it then. Have to remember not to do a factory reset without the Rom available for a flash. Second time it got me .. >.<
[One (M8) Android Development] AndiTails:
You need to read about 3 posts back and realise that the last few pages have been over-run by people asking the same question!

Or you could read the Announcement at the top of every page of this thread.

;)
[One (M8) Android Development] paracha3:
Same here. I feel this new firmware is optimized for battery usage. I unplugged charger at 100% before going to bed and woke up after 7 hours and it was still 100%. I am sure i have not seen this before. Now i have been using the phone for 10 hours and down to 87%. Really good.
[One (M8) Android Development] FitzysN6:
S OFF, Super CID, updated firmware etc etc

BUT I cant get past the bootlogo when I flash 20.1. Both dirty & clean flash. I do have a custom bootlogo if that matters ?

Any suggestions please.

I can restore my 11.2 Nandroid, and it works, but I would love to try the new camera and stuff.

One thing I do see in the bootloader is *** Software status Official ***, I don't remember seeing that before..

Cheers
[One (M8) Android Development] erwinpiero:
Just a little note, i found my M8 stayed in HTC Logo screen without going to next process. Lately i found that i had overwritten existing twrp recovery. Put power button + volume down (acting as pull out battery activity) then push volume down while it restarted to go to bootloader, then reflash twrp again, problem overcome..
[One (M8) Android Development] ishemes:
Same problem here. I didn't notice it until I read your post. Also dirty flash. I'll wait for 20.2. If that doesn't fix it I'll wipe and restore from titanium backup.

From external sd to internal works fine though. Around 33 megabytes a second. Could it be the ext4 optimization checkbox I checked in aroma?
[One (M8) Android Development] FitzysN6:
I am using PhilZ Touch 6 and I can get into Recovery okay, so it's not that ??
[One (M8) Android Development] Semek:
Thanks m8! ;)

Well, at first I asked questions too that was asked a lot, well not many till I got the idea that everything is already in previous pages,

so started looking by myself and it was sometimes promising. :D

---------- Post added at 02:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:31 PM ----------

WTF? how? :eek:

Did you enable a power saving option of any kind during night or something like that?

I lost 8% while I was sleeping!

Although the battery is still pretty good from I got used to (from my previous Samsung Galaxy S3), but as I can see I can do better somehow ;O

I'm with the 20.1 and the new firmware.

That's a screen shot from now (yeah, I know it would be better to show a screen shot from when I wake up actually), from the 'Screen Of' window.

[One (M8) Android Development] paracha3:
I must say i have WiFi, cellular data off all night AND i have power saver mode always enabled. But then again that has always been my baseline for battery test.
[One (M8) Android Development] Semek:
Ahh OK, so now it's making sense, heh.

Well, of course that if it's not for testing purposes I won't disable the cellular data all night.

But maybe I can use the power saver during night.

Thanks!

no wifi

wiped user partition and installed 20.1. I have no wifi. I noticed when I was restoring my phone that it wouldn't turn on so restored from my carrier. after install, wifi will not turn on.

I have the new firmware. I have s off and installed it before going to 11.2

build number 3.28.401.6

should I reflash the firmware?
[One (M8) Android Development] bitwiser:
I could never get it to work. It just kept rebooting when I would get to 30% of the install of HD 20.1...not matter what I did. I tried installing another ROM and the same thing happened.

So, I tried something else. I just reset my CID back to BS_US002 (after the firmware update) and boom...all worked. ROM installed fine. Runs great and WiFi works. I guess that won't cause a problem?
[One (M8) Android Development] bruce7373:
Maybe some of the problem is that many use Tapatalk or XDA app to read the forums, where that disclaimer isn't readily available. I like one poster's suggestion to make having updated the firmware a requirement for the Aroma installer to run.
[One (M8) Android Development] nO.One2:
yes, i think you should try reflashing it, and possibly your recovery has to be reflashed, too (but you will notice that ;) )
[One (M8) Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
That's not the newest firmware. 20.x requires 3.xx firmware. What you flashed for 11.x was 2.xx firmware.

S-off SuperCID
[One (M8) Android Development] Mischa42:
Happened to me as well. In order to fix this behaviour you need to flash related firmware first. See Vomer Guide on how to flash firmware and for link to firmware 3.28.401.6 that is needed for ARHD 20.1. Before you can flash the firmware you mobile needs to be S-OFF. See also mike's announcement at the beginning of this thread.
[One (M8) Android Development] Superm@π:
I just updated my firmware using the SD card method here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723159 which is why I'm confused
[One (M8) Android Development] rexisrex:
try this

Dude try these steps.

Assuming you have flashed firmware 3.xxx.401.6 ..and lost recovery

1.Press power+volume till screen goes off and press volume down. This will take you to hboot. Press volume down in that page and select fastboot. Once in that mode open android adb

Download recovery. img(twrp 2.8) and save it to your adb and fastboot folder.

Rename downloaded file as recovery. img then type this code in cmd

Fastboot flash recovery recovery. img

Once recovery is flashed ..you have to repeat step 1 but this time instead of fastboot you will have to select recovery. This will take you to custom recovery.

From there flash arhd 20.1 and follow aroma options.. This should work..hopefully..

If you haven't even flashed New firmware.. then you need to read the op for guide to flash it.
[One (M8) Android Development] Semek:
I saw few people experienced it, I think if you re-flash the ROM it'll be fine (if not, try to re-flash the firmware again, maybe there were errors or something corrupted).

Oh, thanks. Didn't know that ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] intelintelintel:
hi guys,

I'm on 10.1 and i need to use sunshine to get S off. for that I need to return to stock kernel. If i use the stock ROM from Mike's download page:

Stock KitKat (Android 4.4.3 + HTC Sense 6.0)

Download stock odexed 2.22.401.4

will I be able to use Sunshine? will that contain the stock kernel? Also, can i flash this rom over my current rom without wiping?

P.s. if anyone can provide me with a zip of the basic kernel that would be absolutely peachy.

Older ARHD versions ?

Hey guys, I'm looking for previous versions of ARHD... My phone is Asia WWE (707) and the 4.4.4 firmware isn't out yet (or is it ? anywhere ?) so I can't use ARHD 20.1 ... Actually I can but no Wifi =(

[One (M8) Android Development] erwinpiero:
Sir we have the same version, i'm afraid you should do s-off first and then flashing firmware continue by flashing this rom. Without s-off you will have not-working wifi.
[One (M8) Android Development] zebidybob:
The problem is that this thread has NOTHING to do with firmware this is a ROM development thread.

I also call user error (picnic - problem in chair not in computer) as many of us have flashed the latest firmware and installed the latest ARHD and everything works perfectly, including WiFi (using it now).

Nobody should be able to use the Noob card as you are on a forum so you can read, that means you can follow one of the many excellent guides, I use vomers guide as I can never remember the fastboot commands.

Remember hardware -> firmware -> software all three are different - this is a software thread!

If you think you don't have to read or are to special watch this http://youtu.be/JmvCpR45LKA
[One (M8) Android Development] shaunhoop1981:
The best way to check your current firmware version and to flash new firmware is all through fastboot it requires a pc with adb fast boot do not think just because the about section in stettings shows that you are on 4.4.4 it is wrong unless you have manually updated firmware or allowed ota from HTC or carrier
[One (M8) Android Development] cobramax:
1 install 4.4.3 odexed rom with custom recovery

3 upgrade 4.4.4 stock rom on phone

4 unlock bootloder and flash twrp recovery with all in one toolkit hasoon2000

5 install 20.1 arhd

[One (M8) Android Development] TarekElsakka:
I noticed that there is an issue with music playback on the latest ROM while running Xtended module rather than Sense Toolbox. I am not sure if it's an issue with the ROM, the module, or with my device, but for some reason music just wouldn't play (I can see that the duration is changing but there is no sound) unless I keep switching back and forth between HTC Music and Google Play Music apps. It's rather weird.
[One (M8) Android Development] konsti23:
Better yet, a disclaimer in aroma, with a yes/no question about updating firmware. "If you have not updated to the latest firmware YOUR WIFI WILL NOT WORK". "Have you updated your firmware?" If no, aroma quits and will not allow you to move forward.

Yes, and the next step would be "Are you sure that you are using M8 and not any other device"... :rolleyes::rolleyes:

It'd be a lot easier to just add an assert to the updater-script that looks for the latest HBOOT version and if it doesn't find it, the flash will fail.

assert(getprop("ro.bootloader") == "3.19.0.0000" || abort("This ROM requires being updated to the latest firmware, otherwise it will not function properly. Please update your firmware and then flash again");
[One (M8) Android Development] konsti23:

So anyone else keep getting those lock screen update reboot messages?
[One (M8) Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
How would that be an issue? This value is read from default.prop in recovery, not /system.
[One (M8) Android Development] mike1986.:
ok and how would that stop someone from flashing a ROM that requires 3.28.401.6 firmware? The default.prop depends on the custom recovery version and has nothing to do with the actual bootloader version... or am I wrong?

[One (M8) Android Development] akxak:
After reading about the 4.4.4 update for my M8, I looked for a proper way (being S-OFF). I updated to 4.4.4 and installed ARHD (after a full wipe).

The upgrade was worth the effort and time, my battery consumption dropped significantly and instead of being at 20-30% after a whole day, I am at 65% battery left.

Keep up the good work.
[One (M8) Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
You are wrong ;).

What's in default.prop gets read from the device when recovery is booted and written to default.prop.

[One (M8) Android Development] KID_1194:
Hey guys,

I already know that this ROM (ARHD 20.1) will not work in the Verizon M8 due to the unavailability of a Verizon firmware update but what if someone flashes this ROM in Verizon M8 and selects "International" in the variants' list, will it work or still a firmware update is required?

Best regards
[One (M8) Android Development] ccw1134:
Unfortunately while this sounds great to those of us who actually take time to read, it will do nothing for the ones asking the same questions over and over who do zero research. The new question repeatedly asked will be "I'm coming from 11.2 and I'm S-on. Why does flashing 20.2 fail?" Having said that I think isn't a bad idea to add even more safeguards. McDonalds had to add a disclaimer that their HOT coffee might burn someone if spilled or consumed while it was still hot. I guess some need more hand holding than others. :eek:

As far as the 20.1 update goes, great job mike1986. This one is running great and my battery is lasting longer than it did on the previous version and that's with the stock kernel. Coupling that with fact that I finally went ahead and took the steps to integrate ATT Visual Voicemail back into my dialer I couldn't be happier! Thanks!!
