There is a modded GPE Hboot? Where?

And actually you wouldn't be able to flash it on GPE firmware. since the rom version was done on a sense based partition structure the system will fail to flash.. You need tobe on a newer version on sense fw.. What version is the oldest you can be on? No idea.. I'm on the latest developer edition fw
[One (M8) Android Development] s--c:
I'm going to try flash this tomorrow. Been holding off because I know I'm going to miss xposed. But can't resist lollipop
[One (M8) Android Development] radeon_x:
Bummer. Flashed fine using the latest TWRP. Coming from GPE 4.4.4. Everything seems to work great except WiFi won't turn on.

After reading all the different threads, I'm confused though... The only way to flash the 5.0.1 firmware is to be Super CID, s-off and do the full RUU conversion right?
[One (M8) Android Development] rbouza1:
maybe it was a sense hboot. ill be quiet now lol
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You really don't want the GPE firmware for this rom. It won't flash because the GPE firmware changes the system partition size. But you can flash the fw seaperatly not just from the RUU. I have it posted on my site.

I have hboot version 3.19.0.000

(bootloader) version: 0.5

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000

(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.21.21331147A1.19_2G

[One (M8) Android Development] clsA:
Good to know ...

I converted with your RUU the first day it come out, So I was asking more for Others than myself.

I used the TWRP backup to convert to L on my M7 and noticed I had almost 900 MB left on the system partition

while the M8 with the RUU had 1mb after busybox was installed. If this is working I may RUU back to the Developers edition and just use the Rom

Thanks again ...you do good work
[One (M8) Android Development] radeon_x:
EDIT: Removing information that might be confusing to others.

Long story short: update to the latest 4.4.4 firmware, then flash this ROM and you'll be good. The posted 5.0.1 firmware will change your partition sizes at which point you're doing a full GPE RUU conversion basically.
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Yeah, the M7 and M8 differed in that way. The GPE and the Sense version have the same partition size on the m7. It was on the m8 that they made it smaller (which IMO was dumb because now with future updates what if the system is bigger than the partition as is almost the case on Lollipop) I'm guessing another update will have to address this

Is philz cwm recovery good to go for the zip.?
[One (M8) Android Development] OMGMatrix:
Ok so im having a weird problem.

GSM, S-Off, 3.28.401.9 firmware, TWRP.

I was running skydragon, without issue. Decided to flash this.

Flashed fine, setup went without issue; however, my internal storage doesnt seem to be accessible.

My external sd shows up fine.

I can go to \data\media\0 and see all the stuff that should be there.

I thought i saw other people talking about this but i went back & couldnt find the posts.
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
It's back a few pages.. I posted the solution (sorry not tying it again) It's odd, It doesn't happen every time because I've tested countless times and it only happen to me once during testing.. Not sure what causes it but yeah.. like 4 or so pages back you'll find it

I too just converted after using Skydragon's 4.0.5 ROM on Sense firmware for a few weeks. I must say, THIS GPE conversion ROCKS! I'm not looking for customizations, tweaks and stupid stuff in my ROM; just a fast, clean, predictable lollipop experience (with OTA!).

Very happy. Thanks for all your hard work!

[One (M8) Android Development] CNexus:
Did you make sure to grab the modules too?

If nothing else works, just download the exfat source from here: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=exfat (latest one of course)

And integrate it into your kernel source and build

[One (M8) Android Development] flar2:
It doesn't work. On my latest I reverted commits until the stock texfat module would load. I think that's the only way to get exFAT support.
[One (M8) Android Development] Moose3:
I'm stuck in a boot loop and can't get into recovery by holding power/volume up or down. Any help?
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Hold down volume up and power until it reboots, but be ready to be holding volume down the second the screen goes off to bring you into bootloader mode
[One (M8) Android Development] rbouza1:
try holding shutting it off first. hold power down. then, hold volume down, while holding volume down press and hold power. should get you to bootloader. then you can access recovery
[One (M8) Android Development] joeykrim:
Thanks for the feedback and confirmation! I've striked out parts of my prior post to not waste anybody's time or effort.

To clarify your comment, you're using a hex edited stock textfat module for exFAT support instead of being able to compile a working module with the source code HTC provided?
[One (M8) Android Development] Moose3:
Got it, thanks!
[One (M8) Android Development] flar2:
I'm using the stock texfat module, unmodified.

HTC does not provide source code for their exfat driver and the Samsung open source exfat driver does not work.

[One (M8) Android Development] CursiveQ:
hi guys, after flashing this ROM i keep getting a lot of google.processes crashing. also i cannot enter the quick tiles from the swipe down menu and i cannot dismiss notifications. this is the error i keep getting "unfortunately the process android.process.media has stopped" can someone help me with this?
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Probably not.. Usually they will update the bootloader and the radio in an ota. It will fail when it tries to update those images..

Use philz cwm.. Go to wipe and select the option to install a new ROM. To me it sounds like you didn't wipe your device before flashing..

Hi again. Tried this method and flashed TWRP to my phone instead of using Phils touch recovery. Still, Wifi does not work, but will a S-On - CDMA GSM One M8 work with your latest 5.0.1 firmware which is posted on your website, or do the GSM and S-On users have to wait for a new update from HTC when Lollipop is officially out?
[One (M8) Android Development] Petert87:
I think you need the Sense 4.4.4 firmware.
[One (M8) Android Development] DryaT:
Is there any difference between Sense firmware and the GPE firmware? (I can't S-OFF, 4.4.4 firmware) Like performance, bugs etc.
[One (M8) Android Development] FIFATG:
I'm on Sense 4.4.3, rooted, S-ON.

I can't take the official 4.4.4 OTA from HTC (shows notification to update). It fails probably because of changes to the system made by Xposed (even though I tried deleting it).

How can I flash this rom? Do I need 4.4.4 firmware or something like that?
[One (M8) Android Development] jaspern89:
I installed the beta version of Cyanogenmod 12 instead which also is based on Lollipop 5.0.1. Did work flawless with the stock 3.18.XXX firmware which I had from the stock HTC-software. I use the phone at work to, so I cannot risk bricking it or use a method to go back to 4.4.X firmware.

The Wi-Fi works to with Cyanogenmod 12. I did not want to struggle with this ROM and I'm still a rookie at flashing firmwares. Good thing that you got it working, but my guess is that you are S-Off and have flashed a 4.4.4 firmware or the one for the 5.0.X since you do not got any problems with Wi-Fi?

For the record, I'm on S-On and haven't flashed firewater yet.

[One (M8) Android Development] tele_jas:
This really isn't the correct thread for this question.. But, if you're on a Sense ROM and are getting a notification to update to 4.4.4 then it's a Sense update (not a GPe Lollipop update). If you have a custom Recovery (TWRP, CWM, PhilZ) then it won't work. You will need the stock HTC Recovery and I'm not sure if your CID needs changed or not?? And if you've done too much modding of the stock ROM, it may not work either.
[One (M8) Android Development] knights.JayTana:
Will this work with 3.28.709.6?

[One (M8) Android Development] FIFATG:
I know this is a Sense update.. I want to have it in order to flash this rom in this thread.

My question is how do I get rid of all the modifications to the system and take the OTA?
[One (M8) Android Development] O0cynix0o:
I imagine reflashing what ever stock version your on now. Reflash the stock recovery, the relock the phone. Update, Unlock, Reroot, make a Nand back up, and try again.

TL;DR: Put your phone back the way it came (Roms , RUU's) and try again.

After 2 days, I rebooted my phone this morning and now my WiFi won't come on. Went back to 4.4.4 and the WiFi now works.

I'm thinking the base needs to match the ROM. So that means either waiting till Sence hits 5.0.1, or what ever version is out at that time, and the new firmware hits; or I convert. I am a cheap ass so that means I wait.
[One (M8) Android Development] s--c:

Thanks man I've been looking for this answer all over SkyDragon I'm using your modified hboot.. And was having the same problem with superU
[One (M8) Android Development] ducted:
I think this is caused only when the Lollipop OTA is installed manually from the phone storage.

The first time I converted my M8 into the GPE 4.4.4 and received the OTA automatically, I didn't have problems with the install. Everything was done without errors and didn't have problems with the internal or external storage.

But installing manually, I've seen a error saying the data partition was unable to unmount properly (or something like that), before pressing the power button to finish the installation (the next step upgrades the firmware and finish the update).

This causes something weird for me. Using FX File Explorer, I can see a icon with the TWRP folder into the data storage, but isn't accessible (showns grayed). I have to go to system/data/media... to access it.

There is also another dangerous error: trying to do a backup to the external sdcard will work only once. The next backup you'll try to do will raise an error and delete your previous backups located into the TWRP external sdcard, and will corrupt your external sdcard too... check later your sdcard for errors and you will see recovered partial files.

This doesn't happen using internal storage for backup or restore.

The way I found to fix it is almost the same explained before by [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] here:

- Wipe manually data partition and internal storage

- Format it.

- DON'T REBOOT TO SYSTEM, reboot into recovery again and configure TWRP.

Then reboot to system and configure Lollipop from the scratch.

With this method I can see the TWRP folder located into the internal sdcard correctly and doesn't corrupt the external storage when I do backups.

I'm using the latest official TWRP recovery v2.8.1.0 and is not corrupted, checksums are ok.

Anyone experienced this problem also?

Note: I know this thread is for installing the rooted version using TWRP and I'm talking about installing the GPE 4.4.4 RUU and apply later the 5.0.1 OTA. But it looks the problem with the data partition is related to enter or not to TWRP before configure Lollipop from the scratch.
[One (M8) Android Development] ducted:
I tried flashing this rom and I found the same problem described in my previous post.

To avoid sdcard corruption you should:

- Install the rom via TWRP from external storage.

- Reboot to TWRP after installing.

- Wipe manually data & internal storage.

- Format it.

- Reboot to TWRP once more & configure TWRP (brightness, date, etc).

- Reboot to system and configure Lollipop.

Try this steps if you have problems with internal storage corruption.

As you know the system is taken up completely if fully converted to GPE right .

I converted back to stock Sense and flashed the 5.0.1 lollipop thinking I would outwit the system issue but as I'm sure you know once I flashed the matching updated firmware it pretty much took all my system as if I never converted back to Sense at all.

No problems to report as I just ruu 5.0.1 and just have to wait to see what Google does about it.
[One (M8) Android Development] neverborn:

I only ask because I keep seeing statements about Xposed being functional - but I do believe the developer himself says it isnt compatible with Lollipop.
