FAQ

Q: Can't access SDCard

A:

1.If you were on sense firmware originally and flashed the GPE L firmware you either need to format data partition in recovery or you can instead try to flash the latest sense 4.4.4 firmware from here and try installing the rom again.

2. You will need a terminal emulator from the PlayStore, rom toolbox should work as well, type the following into terminal emulator

su

restorecon -FR /data/media/0

--

have you tried this?

Opps i just realised that you are asking about MTP.
[One (M8) Android Development] NiXiNiX:
Why should I? I'm on GPE firmware.

It worked before since the first SD GPE Lollipop release and it's recognized and accessible in any file-browser, which, if I remember correctly, wasn't possible for some people.

Thanks anyway.

Edit:

I narrowed the error. It's only on MacOS X. On Windows it's working.

Nonetheless it's since SD GPE 4.1.2 release. and I haven't changed any software on my mac.
[One (M8) Android Development] toeterbaas:
This is not flashable with s-on i think ?
[One (M8) Android Development] nags92:
I dont believe it is flashable unless you are currently on Stock GPe 4.4.4 Rom with Stock Recovery and Firmware ?

I'd give it a few hours or less and some kind person will modify it to be flashable ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] blackroseMD1:
I believe you have to be fully stock GPe to flash it.
[One (M8) Android Development] toeterbaas:
Thanks for your answer :)
[One (M8) Android Development] shawa2:
Hi gang!

First off, massive thanks to [MENTION=1211160]HolyAngel[/MENTION] - outstanding work :)

I am currently on SkyDragon v4.0.5 with Lollipop firmware... I've seen there is now v4.1.3 which requires a new firmware, hence full wipe..

Will I need to do another full wipe once we have a build based on official release? Can I go straight from v4.0.5 to the next build or should I get to v4.1.3 first? I'm trying to avoid too many full wipes if possible...

Cheers!
[One (M8) Android Development] Bobbi lim:
Official OTA is out already! :D

Waiting for a new rom now [MENTION=1211160]HolyAngel[/MENTION] ;)

Kernel source is out as well! :laugh:
[One (M8) Android Development] toeterbaas:
Thanks so i have to be s-off and make it stock GPE?
[One (M8) Android Development] Bobbi lim:
Yes and also remember to change your CID to gpe or you'll not receive the OTA
[One (M8) Android Development] zaydaboss:
Viper4audio. I followed the instructions that were linked here yet I get prompted to install the drivers over and over. Is there something in missing? Everything else is running great on the new update.
[One (M8) Android Development] nags92:
Try using V4A in compatibility mode. I think the system is set to read only so changes made to system files are reverted on reboot.

Now the Kernel source is available i would expect that we will have a modified rom to allow r/w access soon :)
[One (M8) Android Development] arsenalfreak:
I think viper is not updated for lollipop...
[One (M8) Android Development] ferreinf:
Unninstall apk ,then try using this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.selinux

change to permissive, reboot and then install viper and driver
[One (M8) Android Development] alluebin:
How is the current version of this rom smoothness compared to cm12? I mean is the Lollipop 5.0.1 much faster than 5.0? Last time i was on this rom was on v4.0.5 (android 5.0)
[One (M8) Android Development] bonstio:
Totally awesome work.

adb still offline despite latest version. No biggy but would like to know why if anyone understands the problem?
[One (M8) Android Development] Bobbi lim:
Personally I still feel that CM12 is still smoother but nonetheless, give the updated version a try! Who knows, you may like it ;)

Anyone got the exchange bypass security apk for gmail? Thanks!!
[One (M8) Android Development] chelseafcuk:
Which CM12 version are you using?
[One (M8) Android Development] TarekElsakka:
Although I preferred to use CM12, I have decided to switch to SkyDragon and I am totally impressed with the latest update. It has become really fast, responsive, and polished and my new daily driver.
[One (M8) Android Development] domeniconico:
camera not work fc , crash , possibil solution
[One (M8) Android Development] Skizofren:
Did you, AT LEAST, took the time to search within this thread ? It has been discussed way too many times already. People are having wi-fi issues with Sense firmware. If you want to be problem free, go with the latest GPE-L firmware and that's it. It is NOT a problem with this ROM.

[One (M8) Android Development] 557953:
Loved these extra features, I'm sure its fine but just to be safe, is it ok to flash this on the 5.0.1 OTA???
[One (M8) Android Development] TarekElsakka:
The disclaimer says it requires a stock GPE ROM or as stock as possible so I would say yes, it is safe to flash it on the latest OTA.
[One (M8) Android Development] djlukas1983:
I'll wait for the SkyDragon update anyway.

[One (M8) Android Development] TarekElsakka:
I was wondering if V4A is even worth it on this ROM? On CM12 it is most definitely required if you don't want to ruin your speakers, but I feel as though the sound output here is very crisp and does not have any stutter even on 100%, so does it make a noticeable difference?

EDIT: And is there a solution for the Gallery issue? Photos is FCing and I cannot seem to install the KitKat GPE Gallery.
[One (M8) Android Development] Iscin:
I am S-ON so changing firmware like that is not an option for me. And I'd also rather not risk any bricking by this point.

If there is no solution then I'll just stick to the CM pre-nightlies. So yes, yes it is a problem with the ROM since the CM 12 pre-nightlies do not have an issue.
[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
It's the problem with the user who doesn't understand how a GPE ROM works compare to CM.

GPE needs GPE firmware

Does CM needs CM firmware ??? :p Does CM has a firmware in the first place ?
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
wth, i go to sleep and everything comes out half an hour later :crying:

On it now guys, give me a bit ^^
[One (M8) Android Development] myheroduane:
Get some sleep dude, you owe us nothing. Thanx again for all your effort.
[One (M8) Android Development] Iscin:
The FAQ reads and I quote:

"Q: If I'm on latest Sense firmware(4.4.4) can I flash this rom without flashing GPE firmware?

A: Yes you shouldn't have any problems and don't need to flash the firmware or convert your phone to GPE."

The FAQ needs changing. If this ROM needs GPE firmware that's fine. But it should CLEARLY STATE THAT! The ROM does NOT work on Sense firmware, not properly. That is my only point. By now I have stopped using this ROM, but others should be aware of this issue. Trying to dismiss me is not helping anyone.
[One (M8) Android Development] cvdv1991:
Ik gebruikte TWRP 2.8.1.0 net als vorige keer, moet ik Philz gebruiken?
[One (M8) Android Development] farru503:
I think you wrong bud...this ROM does work on sense FW , and is recommended to flash lollipop FW to avoid having Wi-Fi issues , if you have any, when you flash this ROM on sense FW , you need to flash it twice (as some people reported) for it to work , and is recommended also to use philz 6.25 recovery, if you don't follow the steps and have issues , the YOU did something wrong, because this ROM works awesome

[One (M8) Android Development] ckpv5:
Your understanding is wrong man ....

The question is can I flash on sense firmware (4.4.4) ... the answer yes ... you can, you won't have problem like bricking your device by doing so ....

This ROM does work on Sense firmware ....and I'm running this ROM (to be exact) on an Asian firmware 3.32.707.9

Anyway ... enjoy whatever ROM that give you less problems/bugs ... that's all what we want when using a custom ROM ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] wildchild048:
Yes It does work on sense firmware.As for WiFi just turn on Bluetooth like has been posted many times.
[One (M8) Android Development] Skizofren:
Do you have problems reading ? It's written it SHOULD work, as in "it might work, but the real way of installing this rom is by flashing the GPE firmware FIRST." Some people are running on Sense Firmware without issues, but that didn't make it for you.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
Same thing happened to me, went to bed after mo's tweet that we'd get the OTA today and woke up to read that the OTA has already been pushed.

Not a bad way to wake up
[One (M8) Android Development] kingkong0821:
Flashed it on a sense firmware for a day,

firstly i just want to give a try and might go back to sense rom

However the rom runs very smoothly and i really like the Lollipop style

just one question about the new ambient display feature

it only turn screen on when new notification comes but not when i pick up the phone

is it normal? or does it relate to the firmware?

Great!

Subscribed and Installed :)

Decided to try this away from my usual ViperROM for a change and am pleasantly surprised! Will be a treat to see how the theming community tackles the new platform!! Only thing I had to download was the new Messenger app from the store (because that hangouts thing is crap)

Running newest Sense firmware (not GPE) and no running issues what-so-ever

ADB is working fine too (I've attached my ADB files if anyone is having issues!)

Split video capture also does not work. But... THIS IS AWESOME! Thanks to those that made this happen! Camera performance always meant I returned to Sense but now, SkyDragon GPE AND HTC Camera!!

[One (M8) Android Development] Clark Joseph Kent:
Sounds like you shouldn't risk anything, straight stock is the best for some...even rooting is a risk. BTW nothing wrong with stock. But understanding the different type of ROMs and what is required for them, would avoid issues. It's not the ROMs...

I flashed 4.1.4 and after immediately flashed lyapotas modpack and did NOT check persistant menu navbar. After booting up the menu button was persistent (showed up at Homescreen). I didnt like that. Was it from Modpack or is it roms default? I didnt have time yet to try without modpack, had to revert to sense... After work I would give it another try... So how can I get rid of the button :P

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the Rom!! - xxxxxxxxA746815N
[One (M8) Android Development] Iscin:
I've been flashing ROMs since the HTC Dream and Nexus One days. I'm well aware of how using custom ROMs goes, though I admit I have had to do some catchup on the One M8. I've just been pointing out that there is a very annoying bug with this ROM on Sense firmware that results in wi-fi OCCASIONALLY freezing itself.

This bug is not a game breaker for many kiddies playing with their phones. But for some of us it's just not worth the aggro, even for 5.0. I reported the bug here because it seems to be specific to this ROM, I have not experienced the same bug on the AOSP based CM pre-nightly ROM that also uses 5.0.

Since the ROM creator very clearly is using GPE firmware it doesn't come as a surprise that they can miss out on this bug. To be perfectly clear the wi-fi does work, sometimes for several hours, but at some point during the day the wi-fi just freezes and refuses to connect to anything, though cellular still works just fine. A soft reboot fixes it.

Unfortunately too many in this thread seem to want to talk down to me and think I'm a complete scrub because I only started using this account recently for posting. I can assure you this is a ROM bug. It may not effect everyone due to firmware and model differences, but I have been able to reproduce it consistently across the last three versions of this ROM. My Sense firmware is up to date so it's not because of outdated firmware.

Anyway, thanks for being the one civil person in this thread to respond to me. Though at the moment I am happy with the CM pre-nightly. It's a shame though because I do like this ROM, but the wi-fi freezing is just not worth it.
[One (M8) Android Development] osiandtrix:
New Stuff

Just wanted to ask whats new with 4.1.4 version of the rom, and is it rebased with the official release of the gpe rom for the htc one m8
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
Thank you very much! Added to the list ^^
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
I would wait, final official version (v4.2.0) is in testing currently and if all goes well will be uplaoded here in an hour or so ^^
[One (M8) Android Development] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
The sense firmware is the problem...and since cm and aosp aren't based on HTC and gpe base it will make problems... Also WiFi is not really freezing, it just disconnect while screen off...and no ROM bug...gpe and sense are quite different...so why should all things work perfectly with not fully matching firmware?
[One (M8) Android Development] Iscin:
The Wi-Fi does freeze. When I was running the ROM and the Wi-Fi froze I could disable and re-enable W-Fi, but it wouldn't find any networks. Only a soft reboot restored Wi-Fi functionality.

Again I specifically updated my Sense firmware to the latest and it still refused to work consistently. Though also bear in mind that I am S-ON, so I had to use official signed firmware, I can't load a custom tweaked Sense firmware.
[One (M8) Android Development] dovah:
The problem is that GPE firmware is different to Sense, so has different WiFi drivers and such, meaning that 100% compatibility with GPE ROMs is not going to happen. 99% percent compatibility maybe, but there will always be little errors, that are not due to the rom, but the nature of the ROM (GPE or Sense) AOSP and CM are completely different are no specific firmware is required.
[One (M8) Android Development] davstir:
Sense firmware is different than GPE firmware. This ROM is based off GPE so any problems that are specific to users with Sense firmware are not a rom problem; it's the fact that the user doesn't have the setup recommended for the rom. Honestly, your question has been answered but you continue to ignore the answers and say that you have the latest Sense firmware. The problem you are experiencing with wifi is due to the fact that you are not using GPE firmware as recommended.
[One (M8) Android Development] Diddy555:
I like the longpress for menu solution. I also like the home button centered, lol. Btw, [MENTION=1148003]lyapota[/MENTION] is it possible to long press for menu somehow?

Thanks :)
[One (M8) Android Development] Iscin:
Yes I understand this difference. So I think the FAQ should be changed to reflect this. I don't know how many other people have experienced this same bug and simply not bothered posting here and just switched to the CM pre-nightly.

I want this ROM to be useable by us Sense people too. Unfortunately some people were trying to dismiss my pointing out this bug.

I don't expect any ROM to be perfect, but if no one reports bugs then they aren't likely to get fixed are they?
[One (M8) Android Development] jshashwat93:
Works perfect for me and many more people. On Sense 4.4.4 firmware.
[One (M8) Android Development] superior888:
Is it possible to implement longpress volume to skip tracks? Or maybe someone know a good app for it? Its important when i work :)

[One (M8) Android Development] jmgg2k:
there´s another camera bug (already tried with sense camera, google cam and two more apps). Im on sense firmware and when you want to take a picture with flash... the flash don´t work to prefocus de pic. Because of that, you can´t take photos in dark scenes with a 100% working flash.

Anyone can tell me if this bug is rom related or firmware related ?
[One (M8) Android Development] Lt.Tealc:
i am really confused. looks like the official L got pushed out today. i am not S-off so i cant flash GPE firemware. with this new skydragon release

is it still recommeded to flash GPE fireware to avoid wifi issues.?? thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] PhillyFlyer:
The SD ROM will work with Sense FW but if you have issues such as WiFi or want to avoid altogether just flash the FW for GPE. S OFF is worth ever bit.
[One (M8) Android Development] dovah:
Whoops didn't mean to thanks your post.

One thing I don't think you understand is that it's not a ROM bug, it's a firmware problem! There's nothing HolyAngel can do about it ! If you're not running GPE firmware you may experience WiFi problems on any GPE based ROM ! So there honestly is no point reporting it, as nothing can be done.
[One (M8) Android Development] Lt.Tealc:
will flash and hope for no wifi issues. i tried to s-off with the free version but failed. i was going to try the paid version but they were saying it doesnt support 4.4.3 yet so i just held off.

Great thanks for clearing that up.
[One (M8) Android Development] wilceaux:
Thanks so much for all your efforts. Looking forward to the official base.

[One (M8) Android Development] *mj13*:
Right but it's not a bug in the ROM...

Why not just flash the firmware with the modified hboot a bunch of pages back... That way you don't have to partition your SD card but still are on the gpe firmware... Much easier then to flash sense fw back if you ever needed to.
[One (M8) Android Development] droidfam7707:
from what i understand the camera only works with the gallery apk...ive had no luck with either.. but at least our duo camera revisits us until we want to save the pic

Sent from my ridiculously modded htc one m8 GPE
[One (M8) Android Development] Iscin:
Obviously people are having different experiences but if we know this ROM is not working with all Sense firmwares then the FAQ should be changed to reflect that. If it truly is an issue that cannot be resolved in the ROM I guess we can't help that, but I still insist this is a ROM issue considering other 5.0 ROMs do not have this bug for me, but I understand if this ROM can only guarantee to work for GPE firmware.

As for changing the firmware, I am S-ON. I have the latest signed Sense firmware, but I can't load custom unsigned firmware. I've already said this this in my previous posts.

Edit: Also before someone replies to this saying I should update the firmware because they haven't read my previous posts. I ALREADY HAVE! Everything works, the issue is with the Wi-Fi freezing after so many hours. It's only a problem with this 5.0 ROM.
[One (M8) Android Development] dovah:
One last thing I'll say, other 5.0 ROMs are AOSP built, NOT GPE built, so you cannot compare them, as they work very differently. I see no point discussing it further though, as everything has been said.
[One (M8) Android Development] manup456:
Aosp roms never require any specific firmware because it's aosp and that's the way the source is, GPE is a totally different monster so you can't compare. It's not a bug because even sense 4.4.4 roms will not work with 4.4.3 firmware it's the way it works. I can't flash sense roms using GPE firmware so maybe this helps you understand how this works.
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
Thank you!
[One (M8) Android Development] Vigz:
Only one person has reported about this volume control issue and I am here to report the same thing. It is existent on 5.0 and 5.0.1 for both SkyDragon roms and the official OTA provided by HTC today. I can't control the volume of music when the phone is locked. You can control the volume right after you put it to sleep but after a while, it will lock up. Has anyone else had this problem?
