Hmm.

I flashed 11.2 ROM, then restored the 11.2 Nandroid and the Firmware version was showing in 'About' was the previous one?? I thought all would be OK and now currently backing up using TB.

I didn't think the firmware version could change like that without having to flash using fastboot or some other means.

This one has me baffled. If this TB backup goes swimmingly, am I in the all clear? Then I'd flash the new Firmware again, flash 21.0, then restore apps using TB?

I've had ARHD since getting my M8 and I love it, thank you! a few questions though... Does anyone know why "vibrate on key entry" keeps turning itself back on even after disabling in both Sound and Language/Keyboard settings menus? Also, is there an ETA on when ARHD will be released with Android 5.0 (Lollipop )? Finally, is there any way (other than a third-party keyboard app) to make the ".com" key an option so it can be toggled on or off? (I for one am always hitting it when trying to hit the space key). Sorry if these have been asked already, trying to search forums on my phone is a huge p.i.t.a! Thanks in advance, keep up the excellent work!!
[One (M8) Android Development] .Ryker:
You'll have to download the stand alone. Reflash AHRD and don't select H/K. Mike has yet to add the updated H/K mod that supports 4.4 which was just released so you have to flash it yourself to get it to work. Or you can just wait for the next update.

Last time I installed it over AHRD I choose H/K install on AHRD I couldn't get any sound. So that's why you have to reflash without it enabled.

---------- Post added at 08:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

Try to reflash the Rom since you updated.
[One (M8) Android Development] biohaz55:
Have you flashed the firmware separately as well as the rom?... if not you do not have the latest fw but you have a 3.28 build rom hence no wifi.

The info in settings/about is the rom build and not the fw... to check the fw reboot to bootloader and check the OS version.

If you do not understand these things then you should really leave your device alone until you have done some reading and learning.

problems with this rom

I would appreciate some advice from u guys.

I have flashed this rom in these exact steps:

I have unlocked boot loader, flashed twrp recovery and rooted it via htc toolkit;

than I have flashed google edition rom on it but I didn’t like it so I flashed this rom on it (full wipe);

first I had problems turning it on (it seemed I bricked it cause it was just black screen without any response) but I managed with pressing up/down volume + power for some time;

I have installed xposed framework along with some modules (or it came preinstalled, not sure any more);

Now I have issues: wi-fi issues, screen randomly freezing (for more than 10 seconds)..

I have contacted some guy who works with smartphones and he told me that I should not have done that with htc phone, that I could do it with samsung or lg but not htc cause the damage is too big and there is no way to get it back..

Should I try to get it back to stock, should I just try to s-off it or any other suggestions.

Many thanks 4 any reply..
[One (M8) Android Development] hbt15:
That "smartphone" guy is full of ****. HTC is one of the most, if not is the most user friendly for ROM mods out of any phone. I briefly toyed with a Galaxy S4 and it was junk.

If this ROM loads up but you're just having wifi issues you need to make sure you have the latest firmware installed. The last 600 pages should cover it. Aas for the freezing...just make sure you're doing a full wipe as you've come from GE Rom and not doing full wipe is bound to cause plenty of issues. Unless you used a GE RUU in which case it re-partitions your phone for GE which will give major dramas on Sense ROMs. Still easy to fix though if you search.

Now, you are on WWE so my suggestion would be to pay the $25 for sunshine, s-off and flash the latest firmware and enjoy 4.4.4 roms.

If sunshine is not an option for you, you can search for signed 2.22.401.6 firmware to flash and then signed 3.28.401.7. (I'm not sure if firmware updates are cumulative. If they are you might be able to skip 2.22.401.6)

If you don't find signed firmware your last option is to return to completely stock and get the OTA from HTC.

Search around the forum as there are guides for everything I have described.

wifi long boot not working issue

Hello

Thanks for all the great work, i hope to be supporting the cause soon.

THIS IS A MINIcompiled INSTRUCTION TO FIX YOUR WIFI not working AND LONG BOOT ::

For the clueless like me :: FIRMWARE NEEDS TO MATCH ROM :: dont even care about checking what your firmware, if you cant turn on wifi and long boot screen you most likely have this issue :: not so hard to fix but requires effort

I highly suggest everyone to follow this guide ESPECIALLY IF ITS YOUR FIRST TIME ROOTING AND FLASHIN ROM from native stock - the vemorguides

http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727

basic tools i used <>

hassans 2000 all in one m8 tool for steps 1 -3 // you can even use this all in one to load into recovery (hboot) and bootloader screens to verif info . big ups to him

work flow

1- unlock bootloader

2 - custom recovery I USED TEAMWIND: read somewhere that superuser chain works more adequately with teamwind NOT the opensource superuser/ cant verify since im new to this /

3 - super user root

:: u need to s off to update firmware ::

4- follow the following guide to s0ff and rewrite ur CID // supposedly helps install roms better// and then update firmware

::::::::::: if you cant S0ff using the firewate method following the tutorial because you get the error HTC PATCH :::::::

i invested 25$ on the sunshine and worked flawlessly and now s0ff

6 : go back to the guide and follow the steps for rewriting cid and firmware

downloaded the latest firmware also provided int he vemorguide :: may this guy remain blessed ::

NOW WIFI WORKS AND NO LONG BOOT

:: for good measure wipe data and reinstall ROM ::

*** RANT START ***

I have decided to stay away from customROMS. There is always an issue.

Last time - customROM ate all my 6gb data on LTE within 48 hours and I was charged $70 for over data for previous month (because problem started previous month).

PS: It wasn't some other rom on 'nexus 5

*** END RANT ***

I got M8 and it came with this ROM on it - I didn't event notice its a custom rom until a month of using it. Since it was working fine, I decided to keep it.

I hear so much about 4.4.4 and I decided to upgrade the ROM from 4.4.2 and man there certainly should've been some disclaimers!

1. Firmware needs to updated manually! (ROM should give warning and / or update it auto)

2. Firmware will be wrong even though it says latest ver.

3. After firmware update (possibly loosing all your data even on SD) - Recovery needs to be restored

4. Firmware updating command needs to be executed TWICE , because it apparently fails most of time first time (and noob like me won't know this)

Anyway, mine is updated and working fine. Took me 24 hours to get it up and running. I didn't even had a backup phone! I figured this is a simple ROM update - I have done it before on so many phones and its always been painless.

Please add some links / instructions on main page (if can't be added to ARoma installer)

Edit: PS: I didn't had to re-flash the ROM (only recovery) after updating firmware. I didn't reset it either. Everything started working (whereas most online instructions says I should)

Thanx

Completely agree with you.

Too much hype about AR 21 and it is a PITA to install it, figure out why wifi isn't working, and then cryptic instructions for firewater/firmware updates.

It will help if there were clear warnings and instructions prior to install.

I wasn't able to enable S-OFF and can't figure out convoluted instructions for firmware upgrade.

Gave up on AR21 and went back to ARHD 11.2 Boot time is several mins but the wifi works now.

By the way, I also installed CM 11 nightly and it worked flawlessly. Fast boot, wifi, access to SD, was just missing HTC sense. I really wanted a way to take multiple pictures of my kids with the HTC camera (through sense) so went back to AR 11.2.
[One (M8) Android Development] stathis95194:
So, you guys have managed to flash other 4.4.4 Sense ROMs and had difficulties with ARHD 21.0? I find it very difficult to believe.

But then again i'm not going to enter in a discussion for this. I cannot even count the people i have helped the last month or so to properly update firmware and flash the ROM because they decided to do it without reading the guides that are all over the place in these forums.

If you don't want to do a bit of studying, please do not mess with your 700 euro toy and wait for HTC to do the update for you.

Just my 2 cents.
[One (M8) Android Development] PrinceMS:
I came from 4.4.2 , older ver of this ROM. I am sorry, I don't mean to diss your work. As I said - I am anti CustomROM these days but still sticking to this because "it just works" <--- My attempt for a complement. I guess I suck at giving complements lol

I didn't even know there is a thing called firmware before tackling this upgrade. I read all starting posts, look at "instructions". Glanced the forums quickly to see if there is something I need to know specifically.

All I was trying to say is : If a warning or a "check" has been implemented , it will be little more noob friendly.

Keep up great work.

[One (M8) Android Development] Sneeuwtijger:
First read , read , read , understand what Firmware is, Bootloader, Recovery and Rom - there are guides , Wiki Pages , countless web pages with Good, to the Point information and instructions.

If you have done that, understood the basics - read a thread about installing a Custom Rom from the start = OP = Opening Post , the start of the Thread.

Then it's about time to make a start - if you are a beginner - use knowledge from experienced users, you will get help if you have put time and effort into it.

Then you run AHRD on the right firmware on your HTC One - and you will be happy ;)

It is not a classroom, it is not a place to come and learn about flashing, customising, etc. There are General and Q&A forums where you can go and learn the things you need to know.

Nope, firmware and ROM are 2 different things. ROMs don't flash firmware it needs to be done separately.

Easiest way to find out what firmware you are on is to reboot to bootloader and check the output of

fastboot getvar all
