Change the camera storage on lollipop htc camera to mmc and guess what it delete the dcim folder and make new dcim folder on mmc. :banghead::banghead: lost around 1500 photos including my new born baby girl. Is this bug? It shouldn't be like this in general. Any help to recover those photos? I really would appreciate!!
[One (M8) General] TwistyValhalla:
Oh no! Definitely a bug if that happens. I switched pre Lollipop and didn't encounter that issue. I'm guessing you don't use Google auto backup for pictures?
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
Thats unfortunate :/ since I mod I always keep all media files on sd card and leave internal storage for apps. That way I never lose stuff.
[One (M8) General] sajibcy:
it was so stupid not to do online backup :( :( trying icare recovery so far nothing. anyone else recomand any good recovery prog?
[One (M8) General] kamikaze_al:
Didn't happen to me , just a glitch in your case, although, I wonder why you didn't have default storage as the sdcard pre lollipop on your device...
[One (M8) General] ckpv5:
Maybe some warez installed them as I see that you have aptoide installed and synced
[One (M8) General] elukS:
That worked a treat, THX
[One (M8) General] djlukas1983:
I changed the storage for camera and didn't notice that bug. Some days ago I had a problem with the pictures was disappearing after about minute of rebooting the phone.

After another rebooting the pictures came back for a few seconds and I had a chance to copy them to external storage. Try this way, maybe it'll work for you.

It was a partition bug made by converting phone to GPE and back to sense when lollisense was released.

I fixed that by formating data and internal storage partition.

Lollipop is full of problem on m8 specialy battery drain, how as possible return to 4.4.4 KitKat.

Or how did i resolve the problem? I nave done the hard reset from bootloader after updates to lollipop.

---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

The battery drain is from the not fully compatible apps, probably why the battery is better after a hard reset.
[One (M8) General] unifex_:
Is it autoupdating? I already have that version on my phone, but I never updated it, I mean I never got any notification about it and I update my apps manually, auto update is off whenever possible.

[One (M8) General] BenPope:
It would be silly for HTC not to compile their source to target ARMv8, which would make a port impossible.

go back to complete stock (without root)

[One (M8) General] Jpmoo:
Question... If we're S-Off, do we even need the update? Couldn't we flash firmware when it's available and then any rebased ROMs (once available)? Or am I wrong?
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
Firmwares will be available when stock ota is released. Before ota, the most that can be done is make a port of m9 rom.
[One (M8) General] Jpmoo:
Got it. But once stock OTA is out, firmware and ROMs would be available soon, and we wouldn't even need to take the update. Right?
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
IF you're S-ON you'll need the official OTA to update your device along with the firmware

if you only flash a rom based on sense 7 with current firmware, you could really mess up your phone

However, if you're S-OFF you can just flash the latest firmware when it comes out and then flash any rom based on sense 7

remember to ALWAYS use the firmware MEANT for the build that your using else:

long boot times; worst case: brick
[One (M8) General] kamikaze_al:
Once the M9 gets it's first update, we can expect our M8s to start getting the goodies...

that's mean we have to wait for long long time

it seems the m7 was discontinued from the list of updated devices. only the m7 google play edition will continue to recieve updates. It will probably be the same for M8, so I am preemptively switching to a full google play edition software
[One (M8) General] kamikaze_al:
Nope, the M7 had reached its limit for company product cycle updates, but, today they hinted at giving the M7 5.1 too, the M8 will finish it's cycle by the mid of next year... 2years is what HTC promises, beyond that the hardware gets a little outdated to handle newer software.... Company says that

How did you convert? I tried converting to GPE with a RUU zip through fastboot but it keeps telling me "wrong partition size" something similar to that. Is there a complete EXE RUU for gpe?
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
Thats odd, never had such errors! Are you S-ON? If so then you can't convert.

If you are S-OFF then I'd suggest setting up adb properly and use HTC's own fastboot.exe instead of google's...
[One (M8) General] jonathan413:
Yeah I'm s-off and have adb properly installed on both computers. Only tried one though. I'll get back to you once I try it again
[One (M8) General] nassimxmax:
does m8 will come with senens 7 ? because i only find m7 will come in may

when ?
[One (M8) General] Bobbi lim:
Why convert? If you've bought the Sense variant of the device, you can flash both Sense and GPE ROM. There's no need for a conversion at all :)

Unless you bought the GPE M8, than its best to convert to Sense so that you can flash both Sense and GPE ^^

M8 will come with Sense 7 once the official M9 is released. OTA should be around June or so ??
[One (M8) General] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Some people want always the latest gpe rom [emoji14] so if he has s-off he can do whatever he want, there are also plenty guides [emoji14]

Also June seems to be a bit late I think more of Mai it should be there...if not yes June will be the month

[One (M8) General] jonathan413:
Battery is excellent on GPE conversion for me. Camera does suck but I don't take pictures so that's a moot point for me. Everything seems smooth overall. I don't think I've had any hiccups yet, then again I haven't played intensive 3d games but I'm sure they'll be fine. Looking forward to gpe 5.1. I like sense but in the end it really doesn't bring much functionality to me and the faster updates on gpe even if marginally is much better experience for me.

For who update his M8 to android 5.0.2

May you check the DND ( Don't disturb Mode) I read that they had changed to be like priority mode in stock android , and the spoiled .

Can you please check for us?
[One (M8) General] mohsinraza:
Mine's WWE. Region is Taiwan. Check your CID and you'll know about your device. Install CID getter app from play store for that. Yep, Sense will be coming with 5.1 most probably.

That's weird. Is the battery enough? Make sure you don't install OTAs when plugged in. Go back to recovery and wipe cache. I hope you get through this.

Sense has them both. Haven't used DND/Priority mode myself but it's there and old system of normal/silent/vibrate is also in place.

Sent from my HTC One M8
[One (M8) General] ahmoda:
It seems the way (DND mode) used to work and set it up had been changed , as I understand from other people .

The problem you can't know the difference as you didn't use the old version.

Thank you for help.

Any other improvements?

I hear there is a lot of smoothness in performance and more power consumption
[One (M8) General] mohsinraza:
I've to use my device for a bit longer to comment on that. But I can at least confirm massive battery drain. I'm never at 45% at 2 in the day. But this happens almost always after the OTA. One or two charge cycles will make it normal so I'm not worried about it. Still finding out what's new because HTC didn't give anything in the changelog.

If you're rooted, use a root file manager and navigate to data/app and delete the duplicate files.

And there's no need for a "boo" , if you want Sense 7, either download the Sense 7 ported ROM and flash it or grab a M9! We won't be getting updated to Sense 7 so quickly -_-

thats why I am asking here, the rom's i am using, specifically stated in the descriptions, sprint compatible or would say, doesnt work on VZW. so i think it has something to do with my HK firmware 4.20.654.10, as i do not see that FW mentioned very often in the ROM decriptions. I will see they say that it is compatible with HK and to use a certain download for the HK model, but still they either wont install, or if they do, i get a few days use out of them and they begin to become unstable. I am unlocked and s-off when I do these.
[One (M8) General] pboy:
So I tried updating without being plugged in and wiping cache after updating. Unfortunately I was still stuck at HTC logo. I ended up restoring back to stock 5.0.1 via my nandroid backup and updated to 5.0.2. Finally, I restore just the data portion of my most recent 5.0.1 nandroid backup and got it working fine. Maybe this would for you too.... Sorry this is just a band-aid to the problem since I don't have extensive android knowledge. Hopefully someone will find out the cause of the issue soon.
