Can you still enter Recovery?
[One (M8) Android Development] biggyhead:
yea now i can with adb but now im going back to htc sense but i get same error with the skydragon sense version.....did all the firmware update through fastboot so i can go back to original UI but ..ehhh...so much errors >.< i have a sofbrick phone atm

UPDATE: Seemed to be working skydragon verison but i coudlnt' get this to work for me ty anyway!
[One (M8) Android Development] maidiopt:
I dont know why you're having problems... I installed this ROM 3 Weeks ago with no problems. I already did re-install this ROM so many times, and never got problems.

And with Sense Based ROMs like SkyDragon Sense or ViperM8.. no problems too....

What Recovery do you have?
[One (M8) Android Development] herbertzzz:
I know that will help nobody, but it´s true that flashing always contains residual risk. I destroyed my old Samsung Note 2 by "normal" flashing and needed a new flash-memory built in. I hope you are able to bring your M8 back to life without repairing. :good:

I flashed this rom yesterday and had no problems, too. I think your problem is not rom-based.
[One (M8) Android Development] biggyhead:
twrp, but i think it was the firmware that was wrong because once i updated by changing the cid number, then using the firmware i was able to do after getting into recovery then wipe everything from your last post to someone else, and it just worked, i had trouble with it for a few hours. But i think it was because i wasn't on Sense UI i was on GPE Edition, which i did the first time i got this phone, switched it to GPE RUU edition prerooted etc, maybe?
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
I personally think twrp is the problem. Should not need gpe ruu at all. Twrp randomly corrupts partitions, I've had it happen to me three times using twrp. Its why I only recommend philz.
[One (M8) Android Development] sageandonion:
I've used twrp for a very long time and never had a problem with it. Don't know what causes these issues.
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
Yep I have too, especially on the m7, but the M8 versions are messed up and corrupt the phone since the first version appeared for it and it has never been fixed. Never had that happen in the months I've been using philz recovery, but ya, 3 separate times with twrp I've had to fight to format my different partitions. Once it corrupted my cache partition, second time was data, and third was system. Took hours to fix due to the level of corruption. Philz 6.25 or 6.26 work wonders however and ya, Never had an issue. Just my two cents on the issue, beware.
[One (M8) Android Development] sageandonion:
I might swap Recovery's then if its causing issues, its a ball ache as the nandroid backups are incompatible between the two I think. Just a thought.
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
Actually philz will let you restore and backup in twrp format, its under backup settings in the backup/restore section of philz ^^
[One (M8) Android Development] maidiopt:
So i should change recovery aswell hehe, can i just download and install phil? Will it automatic replace twrp? Should i be aware of something?

Regards.
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
yep thats all, download and flash with fastboot would be best, flashify will work too though.
[One (M8) Android Development] CyclingVinnie:
Get the app flashify - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify&hl=en

All you do is download the recovery .img, save it on your phone, open flashify, find the recovery file and it does it for you. You dont even have to put your phone into recovery. Ive used the app several times and it is painless
[One (M8) Android Development] maidiopt:
Thank you guys for the answers.

have a nice weekend :)
[One (M8) Android Development] adichandra:
Flashed this rom today with twrp. All running smooth and so far no big. Great battery life as well. Thanks to you dev!

Don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if I'm missing it somewhere in this thread but has anyone noticed that IR is not working at all?

Does anyone know how to fix it?
[One (M8) Android Development] jongcruz:
Any way to have this color effect on nav bar?
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
I'm using smart remote off the playstore(paid app) and IR works completely fine here..
[One (M8) Android Development] Neoistheone2000:
Odd, I have the HTC Sense TV app and Smart Remote too, I have even held my phone in front of a camera and I can't see the IR doing anything.

I've done a full wipe and manual reinstall of all my apps, any ideas?
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
No idea, idk about seeing the IR light, but I just installed smart remote and set it up for my tv and was able to do everything, turn on/off, volume/channel etc..
[One (M8) Android Development] Neoistheone2000:
I'm doing a nandroid right now and will try Art and not installing Xposed to see if that's causing it, only thing I can think it is, I'll let you know what I get.

That's a negative, [emoji22] restoring backup.

As an added note the official HTC remote errors out when trying to learn codes from normal remotes.

IR Blaster

Are you using a case that might be blocking the signal? I also am using Smart Remote and HTC is set up as well. Maybe you are using a different Kernel? I am running V3.4.0 with Skydragon kernel 2.0.2, with no complaints. The blaster on these goes sooo much farther than the one one the G2.
[One (M8) Android Development] jongcruz:
Go back to stock Rom and try again to see if it is hardware related.
[One (M8) Android Development] Neoistheone2000:
In the time since I have last posted I have restored my nandroid off my stock sense ROM, and found its not working there either, I was using the developer edition radio and have also switched back to the AT&T version still not working.

I know the infrared led isn't doing anything because I hold it up to a camera and can't see it lighting up, I use the dot matrix case but since I've been working on it it's been off.

I'm starting to run out of ideas :(

I think it's software because the HTC software's learn feature just errors out instantly.

There is any way to get CM11 themes on GPE roms? I found two awesome Android L themes for CM11... I would love to use them but idk why CM11/PA roms give me a feeling of not finished job.
[One (M8) Android Development] Neoistheone2000:
Just to update everyone, I have to RMA, guess I'll have to return everything to stock and send it in [emoji22]
[One (M8) Android Development] boywithabeard:
There is an Android L Theme in the Xposed Repository, not sure if it is as thorough as the ones you want but I've been using it for a while with no issues.
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
HK theme manager *may* work but that's the only way to do it on gpe. Cm's theme engine is not possible to get on gpe unfortunately
[One (M8) Android Development] vladimir_carlan:
If i go to download section of Xposed i can find only Android L navigation bar module. There is another place where i should look? I'm looking for something like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quantumdust.lcm11

---------- Post added at 08:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 AM ----------

I tried but HK Theme manager its not working... I've tried with 3 different themes and no result.
[One (M8) Android Development] adichandra:
one question, if i want to go back to stock sense 6, can i just flash ruu? i heard about the storage partition of gpe rom is different, please enlight me. thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] vladimir_carlan:
I went back and fourth from GPE and Sense several times without any issue as long as I did the wipes. I was never needed to flash RUU (International variant here).
[One (M8) Android Development] adichandra:
i meant stock RUU, not sense custom rom.
[One (M8) Android Development] vladimir_carlan:
I was on pure stock too (the flashable zip found in ARHD download page).
[One (M8) Android Development] adichandra:
Never thought of that. Thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] boywithabeard:
This is the Xposed module http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/xposed-android-l-theme-t2803003

You could try Xtheme Engine.http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-xthemeengine-beta5-theme-engine-t2240180 Says it won't work on stock sense, but maybe GPE? Let me know if you get it working. I am using a combo of Xposed modues to get the effect I want.
[One (M8) Android Development] vladimir_carlan:
I already tried Xtheme Engine of GPE couple of days ago and its not working. I managed to convert the theme i want, was shown in themes list but applying it have no effect. About the Android L theme you showed to me, idk what to say... Actually its faaaar away of Android L. Except maybe the calculator application :))) System settings application its totally different. That i bought for CM/PA its complete: system UI, icons, quick tiles (my favorite). I tried on an PA rom and its absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately I don't like custom roms. Most of them just throw there a hand of features from different builds. Some are working, some don't, some are annoying. For example on that PA build I've tried when i was typing i used to get left/right arrow keys in my navigation bar. For me was incredible annoying and totally ruined my user experience.
[One (M8) Android Development] jongcruz:

I use the Android L navbar too .. but i want a whole theme not just the navigation bar. but its ok... I'll wait until GPE M8 will get Android L.

Maybe I'm wrong, but the background for system settings shouldn't be white? But anyway

Hi!

I am on ARHD9.1, based on 2.12.401.3. Is it safe to install SkyDragon "just for a look"? First of all I would do a Nandroid backup. But can I install SkyDragon over it?
[One (M8) Android Development] vladimir_carlan:
Yes you can install SkyDragon. tho forget to do the wipes.
[One (M8) Android Development] boywithabeard:
Just wanted to share some findings to those who haven't come across this. If you are running Skydragon kernel (2.0.2 tested) use Root Explorer to set /sys/android_touch/wake_gestures to 1 and enable(change value from 0 to 1) at least one gesture in /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake or /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake and Motion Launch Gestures must be enabled in system settings.

Then set /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake to 1 to enable DT2W without having the device in portrait mode or in motion.

If you combine this mod with AcDisplay lockscreen you can employ DT2W and DT2Sleep(from lockscreen with double tap to sleep setting enabled in the app). This adds a nice funtionality of glancing at your notifications or time quickly while the phone is laying on a surface. If you also add ScreenOff as your double tap launcher gesture; you can manage your screen states with a breeze.

I really use to enjoy this with the LG G2 I came from. Just realized that this kernel was compatible with this mod. Thanks to flar2 and HolyAngel for there work.

EDIT: Does not persist after reboot. Any suggestions out there? (I am S-ON if that matters.)
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
Make an init.d script to set those settings at startup. I already include one for the sweep2sleep in system/etc/init.d, can take a look at it for how to add it. I will likely set a few options for it in the rom's aroma, maybe also make an aroma for the kernel itself... bout time to anyways ^^

Loving this ROM.

Has any managed to get HTC Gallery installed, however?

Mine says "Not compatible" in the Play Store (i.e. it won't download).

I was hoping it would update HTC Photo Edit to allow UFocus blur adjustments..

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htc.album&hl=en
[One (M8) Android Development] CyclingVinnie:
I dont think any sense based apps will work with this rom
[One (M8) Android Development] AndiTails:
GPe includes Sense libs - that's how HTC Photo Edit and the TV app still work and HTC weather.

The Play Store "HTC Gallery" should be the updater for HTC Photo Edit -- however, it doesn't seem to like it.

Read the description for the app - it includes GPe!

Edit: Well, I force updated the HTC Gallery app using the APK from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2696399 It installs as an update to htc.albun.com which is already installed but doesn't show a Launcher icon. Gallery now appears, but doesn't work - and HTC Photo Edit has disappeared, so removing the option to use UFocus, etc!!

Argh.

So App Info -> Uninstall Updates -- and I'm back to no Gallery icon, but HTC Photo Edit is still callable from Edit on a picture.

Meh.

I'll stop messing now. It'll do!

Great rom perfect
[One (M8) Android Development] loonz29:
I am running the newest version of this ROM and the shydragon kernel. I am s off, unlocked and converted to gpe. When on delvic, the camera either works and takes pics as I click to take them or will take one then pause and the next pic will take anywhere between 5 to 20 seconds to take. When running art, the camera works flawlessly. And finally, on delvic or art I can not upload any pics to Facebook, either using the gallery or the Facebook app. I think I've tried every way I know and changed to performance governor so the phone is running fast and losing speed. I have full signal and can not determine why I can not upload. I'm feeling frustrated on vacation. Thank you to anyone who has a fix or knows what I have missed trying to get this to work.
[One (M8) Android Development] RevTheory:
will this work with the dot view case? i love the GPE edition but i still want to use my dot view
[One (M8) Android Development] HolyAngel:
Sure does work with the dotview case ^^
[One (M8) Android Development] boywithabeard:
First for the camera issue try clearing the data in settings/apps. Then uninstall the updates. This will reset it to stock camera. If you want then you could re install the google camera from the play store. As for facebook, could you upload your pics over Wifi? I read that some people have problems uplading on mobile data, especially out of country(you said you were on vacation). If you are on a roaming package you might have to check data roaming in your mobile network settings. Also there is an Xposed module that restores some Face book syncing funtionality, could help maybe?XFBSync Maybe you should post this in Q&A, I don't think it is Skydragon Related.

Anyway to disable password without disabling lockscreen?

Hello, I am kind of a newbie when it comes to all of this. Been with ios for years, switched to s4 few months ago now I have an m8 and love it! Well, with ios,s4, and htc on sense I could temporarily disable password. So when i unlock my phone i just swipe and it unlocks without having to enter password. Now with stock android, if I set it to one minute it disables the lockscreen. Is there a way to have lockscreen while temporarily not having a password?
[One (M8) Android Development] _moelle:
dunno if i got u right, but this normally could be set in lockscreen/display setting. - lockscreenmode -> set to touch .....then you can unlock the phone just with a little movement on the screen. no pin or password.
[One (M8) Android Development] patstar5:
That gets rid of password, I want to delay the password. So if my phone's screen is off for 5 minutes, it will require password. But I want to have lockscreen on before it requires password. Right now it bypasses lockscreen unless I don't use it for 5 minutes. Better make a video, this is confusing.

Anyone know why WiFi keeps turning off on me out of nowhere? and then turns back on.
[One (M8) Android Development] maidiopt:
Hey everyone

Made this Dot View Background... let me know what you think xD :p:fingers-crossed:
[One (M8) Android Development] AndiTails:
I know what you mean. It's the "lockscreen delay" - the amount of time the system waits from screen off (not via power button) to when woken it goes to the lockscreen and not just back to where you where - the default is 5 seconds.

That option isn't in this ROM - and I can't find an Xposed module which adds it.

This app would do the trick, though (however, not free): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.delayedlock2.trial&hl=en

HTH.
[One (M8) Android Development] patstar5:
Thank you so much! I actually tried it and couldn't get it to work but now the app works and I have a slider on my lockscreen!

I am using ai type keyboard right now which has undo but would prefer to use android l keyboard or swiftkey. Ios has had this for 5 years, when will google add it?
