I would suggest if your having issues removing specific apps on first install, to do a complete install then to reflash (dirty) once you have set up viper rom & select apps to remove on the dirty flash, but make a back up first!

I am testing it out. Hmm i have seem to narrowed down the problem. i seem to have a wifi calling problem as well. let me explain, i am coming from official 4.4.4. I do a full wipe from twerp. This means i have no rom installed when i flash the venom rom. If i dont click dirty wipe and install it i have a wifi calling problem and i have the signal dropping problem i was talkking about. But my 4g does work though.

If i click dirty wipe my 4g does not work but i do not have the wifi calling problem and i the signal dropping problem. The wifi calling problem says ' can not connect REG90 Error' . SO the best solution for me is to install without doing a dirty wipe aand try to edit the settings to allow 4g. I am using the vzw version on tmobile. can somoene help me do this. i know this makes no sense but this is what is happening.

[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
Read it again. You said you had an OTA that would work for you, right? Then re-lock your bootloader and flash it. The instructions in the link I gave you are pretty clear.

Or do you not have an OTA that will work for you? You did realize you were S-On when you got it, correct?

Quote from the link:

5. Your device must be S-OFF AND/OR LOCKED or RELOCKED, being S-ON and UNLOCKED won’t allow you to apply OTA update.

To apply a ota update, it's not needed to lock the bootloader.

It doesn't matter, if you are S-ON or S-OFF, in both cases the bootloader could stay unlocked, while you install a ota update.

AND/OR is very poor and deceptive use of English. I read it as AND (Since I am S-ON i did not qualify) whereas I asssume by your comments and others it means to say you can be S-OFF OR Locked/Relocked. AND and OR have very different meanings - and in this case should not be used together.

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------

So if the OTA includes a firmware to be flashed and you're S-ON how is that possible - based on what I have read S-ON does not allow firmware to be flashed.

And secondly, I am S-ON and when i try to flash the OTA via stock recovery i get an error "Cannot mount SD Card" and if I try to flash from phone memory a vairation thereof. So it didn't work for me.
[One (M8) Android Development] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
If you take the firmware out of the ota which is meant for your cid you can flash if with s-on, if you have a branded device and try to flash a wwe firmware it won't work without s-off, but Sith s-on you can flash the firmware which is inside the ota for your device/cid

OK that makes sense (although contrary to what I have read elsewhere incl this thread).

So yes I do have the right OTA for my current build and my CID (TELST0001). So I am still stuck with the fact that when I try to install this OTA with the stock recovery I have i get the error of SD card not mounted or other invalid failure error even from phone storage (ie the flashing never commences and it doesn't even let me select the file to install)..

[One (M8) Android Development] bcbickers:
To a degree, you are correct. It is a poor use of the conjunctions. However, it is frequently used in modern documents and contracts to clarify inclusive or exclusive conditions.

I know this is a silly example, but it illustrates the proper use of the two conjunctions in an independent setting. If you tell your child he or she must have "all A's and B's" on their report card as an incentive for a reward, the only situation in which that child meets your criteria is if their report card has at least one A and at least one B with no other grade letters listed. The "and" conjunction, in this case, indicates an

inclusive

condition where BOTH of the stated conditions must be present. If their report card has all A's, it does not meet the criteria and your child does not earn the reward. Likewise, if you tell your child he or she must have "all A's or B's", then only two possible report cards meet this criteria: one with ALL A's or one with ALL B's. The "or" conjunction indicates an

exclusive

condition where only ONE of the stated conditions can be present, not both. So if their report card contains BOTH A's and B's, then once again your stated criteria is not met.

The use of "and/or" in a sentence is a sloppy way to avoid these rigid situations. There are more grammatically correct ways to state your intent instead of using "and/or", but that is how our language is evolving. Take it for what it is worth. :)

OP: My apologies for going off-topic. I run an IT development shop and am somewhat of a grammar nazi, so I tend to focus a lot on accurate process flows and documentation. That focus includes the language used in said process flows and documentation to provide clarity to the reader.

Guide to FULLY Convert Verizon HTC One m8 to Tmobile with Venom Rom

1. Get S-OFF/Unlock bootloader/Root

2. Flash custom recovery TWRP. Wipe all OS through recovery. http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/226

3. Boot into RUU. Flash 4.4.3, boot to bootloader then flash the boot img for 4.4.3 . Boot into RUU Flash 4.4.4, Boot to bootloader then flash the 4.4.4 boot img.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723159

4. Change cid to 11111111

http://androidforums.com/threads/guide-how-to-supercid.636482/

5. Download and flash CleanRom. Yes clean rom. we need to change a setting that cant be accessed in viper rom. Mount phone through twerp, transfer rom. Or transfer through adb push. Install Rom through recovery. Do the 4g handoff fix.

If any signal problems occur after flashing clean rom or after fix (No bars at all. No cell service including LTE). Wipe OS. Flash Stock rom and stock recovery for 4.4.4. Goto Recovery, Factory reset to restore NV Partition. Flash twerp Recovery . wipe os. then flash Cleanrom and do 4g hand off fix.

4G Hand off fix- it's #778# not what he said and if that does not work goto settings, mobile data, Network Mode and click and try each option 1 by 1 until you can access the menu. I forgot which one it was, but one of them works . Make sure to switch it back to default after you do the fix!

6. Let phone reboot and then Reboot again into recovery. Wipe OS. Flash Viper Rom. Mount phone through twerp, transfer rom. Or transfer through adb push. Choose dirty wipe and choose t-mobile as your carrier.

7. Get new sms app. The stock sms or The modded sms/mms shown in the thread below will NOT work. Disable the old one in apps. I personally use google messenger.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2721582

8. Disable Fast Dormancy in Venom Teaks. Add Lock notifications for your new sms app in Venom Tweaks as well. (Idk what tabs its under, 2 lazy to check.) Make your new sms default messaging app in settings.

9. Thank Venom Team :victory:

Make sure you do all steps in order!

Everything works, including lte, mms, wifi calling, Hotspot.

Are you running the stock kernel? Is V4A asking you for root rights when you load the driver? V4A requires a permissive kernel and root access to function. Try this.

1) Uninstall V4A driver.

2) Reboot.

3) Uninstall V4A application.

4) Reboot.

5) Download SELinux Mode Changer for the Play Store -> LINK

6) Open SELinux Mode Changer application and click the "Permissive" button. It should turn grey, and the Enforcing button should light up.

7) Install the V4A application

8) Open the V4A application.

9) A dialog box should pop up asking you to install a driver. Select "Yes" to install the driver.

10) A dialog box should pop up asking you to choose your Audio Quality. Choose whichever option you prefer.

11) After a couple of seconds, a dialog box should pop up asking for root access. Make sure the "Ask again:" box is UNCHECKED, then select Grant.

12) Another dialog box may pop up asking to disable LPA. If so, select Yes.

13) Reboot when prompted.

14) Profit!
