[One (M8) Android Development] Buck_Falcon:
Hello all,

I'm rather overwhelmed and ignorant on the topic of custom ROMs, and the process behind flashing them, so I hope that you have patience when reading my questions. Not only am I unsure of where to start with my questions, I also do not know what information about my phone is needed to provide the proper assistance, so please bare with me... As of right now, I'm running ARHD 41.0 on Sense 7.0 (Android Version 5.0.1). This was my first experience flashing a custom rom, and it's somehow gone well. However, I see that the rom has had many changes/improvements. I understand that in the wrong hands, one can easily brick their phone while attempting to flash roms, so should I...

1) Go completely back to stock HTC rom, and flash ARHD 53.1 from scratch?

2) Download ARHD 53.1, boot into TWRP and flash new rom file?

I know it will be difficult putting yourself in my shoes and trying to understand how it's possible someone could be so clueless and helpless when it comes to this topic, but I only hope you can have pity on me and attempt to assist me. If after reading this it sounds like I'm so hopelessly clueless, and that there is no hope for me, please spare me the embarrassment and tell me to go back to stock, and never dabble in custom roms...or anything android again.

Thank you, and please show some mercy. I'm trying my best to understand all this.

Your Security flag is ON or OFF? (S-Off or S-On?)
[One (M8) Android Development] Buck_Falcon:
I am S-Off
[One (M8) Android Development] Plomiwn:
Then your CID is also probably SuperCID (111111111)?

If so there is no need to go back to stock, you can just flash newest firmware and rom doing clean install.

Hey guys. Does anyone have an idea how to fix my SD card problem? I'm s-on. I installed the newest firmware. Then installed the rom. Restored my data Partition and wiped cache and dalvik cache. Now after doing all the things apps doesn't recognize my external SD. Like titanium. It says: no space on external. My navigon even says no SD inserted. Anybody an idea? Thank you very much for your help!
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
Better to take a clean flash, totally clean and restore your apps from the market. Problem solved. You are restoring your old data partition to a totally new partition in Marshmallow. Hence the reason it doesn't work. They are different partitions altogether. Start fresh.

ARHD 53 works quite good after dirty flash over 51.

No bugs everything works as it supposed to do.

A big thanks to Mike.

Anyhow, I am not totally happy with the performance.

It is not as smooth as it was with Kitkat and even Lollipop was smother.

Especially when I press the home button in a running App, it takes sometimes a while...

Anybody else share the same experience?

Any solution or advice?

After a week testing MM, first off, you MUST HAVE that .401 firmware. Second, ARHD51 is still based on .1540 and was laggy as hell but when i upgraded firmware and flashed ARHD53 everything is good now BUT its laggier than LP or KK, i advise not to turn on HTC's power saving feature because it cut's down cpu speed and whole interface is more laggier than with full cpu performance.

Doze iz working nice, my father got 3 day usage easily and i also instaled beta greenify with agressive doze so phone could enter that sleep state faster...

All in all, conception of MM is good, there is big room for improvements, now we just have to be patient so developers like mike could implement that.

I will also flash elementalX kernel after i finish all tests on stock kernel.

With best regards from Croatia!

Can anyone please help? I stupidly flashed 6.12.401.4 linked by a user on this site in order to see if boom sound would work correctly.

After flashing I rebooted to system and boom sound is fixed but root has gone. :(

I then re-flashed the original 6.12.401.4, but as expected it did not work.

I then tried installing supersu again from Web (2.67) and still no use.

I'm worried that if I now reboot after my manual install of supersu it may make things worse.

I'm on ARHD 53.1, hopefully still s-off and on fw 6.12.401.4.

I am currently in marshmallow, that it to say not in a bootloop or anything and typing this from within tapatalk on my now uprooted phone.

Many many thanks to anyone kind enough to help me.

(Obviously I can only boot into stock recovery now and not twrp 2.87...)

I already have 53.1 and the latest firmware, what I've lost is root. If I can somehow re root my phone, I should be able to boot into twrp again (already installed) and re-flash 53.1 I think.

My issue seems to just be the missing root, is it not?

Why can you not go to recovery? Press and hold power and volume up for about 10 - 15 seconds. The screen will go black. Slide finger down to volume down and the phone will reboot to bootloader. Select recovery and you're there.

I can go to recovery but it is not twrp recovery. It's back to stock recovery, sadly.

I read your links related to selinux....but to be honest....I still don't understand, what I did wrong during flashing the Rom that causes the problem. The only thing I do after flashing Rom ist recover my apps with TB...and there are some system-parts like Backgroundpicture, Desktop-Settings, playlists - do you think some of these can cause the problem. Until ARHD 51.0 (which I also cleanflashed) everything worked perfect.

[One (M8) Android Development] s3nsation:
Hi, first off thanks once again for a great ROM, donated. I'm having issues with the SD cards on Android 6.

I flashed the new 6.12.401 etc firmware, wiped everything and flashed this ROM. Then I reformatted the sd card (Sandisk Extreme) from within Android. However, many apps don't seem to be able to access and write to the card (Titanium Backup, Mega V2 are just some examples).

I'm suspecting these problems are coming from the app devs not properly implementing the new Android 6 permissions. However, is it possible that something in the ROM isn't working the way it should? Or a known way to fix it?

Sorry if this has been asked before.
[One (M8) Android Development] dantemetaphor:
To those having issues, I would reccomend flashing the FULLSTOCK version of 6.12.401.4 from [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION] using fastboot. Make sure to backup your stuff as this will wipe your phones internal storage. Then flash TWRP via fastboot and flash the rom making sure NOT to install supersu when asked in TWRP. Rom also takes a while to set up so be patient at the htc screen, also make sure to do at least one reboot after setup. Hopefully that will get rid of most issues being reported, plus it was the only way I could get boomsound working again.
