What is the best way to update to 5.1 from rooted 5.0.1 GPE? Ruu will erase everything. I've tried to flash this one :HTC_GPE_5.02-5.1_OTA_update.zip, but it failed during verification. Saying that I don't have version that is expected.
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You're trying to flash the ota.. You need the Flashable rooted rom
[One (M8) Android Development] emmanueldmc:
Which firmware is recommended for this rom? I have 4.16.401.10
[One (M8) Android Development] worry:
OK, didn't know that. So I can find flashable ROM on your web site? And I won't loose my settings?
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Honestly, I've always just fully converted from sense. But this is what I would do.

Flash the firmware.. Then reboot back into the bootloader (you'll have gpe bootloader) then flash twrp. In twrp wipe the system (it's in the advanced wipe menu), flash rom, then go wipe data fully (in advanced where you have to type yes to confirm). You should be good then..
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Correct. It's labeled "Rooted Flashable..." It's right below the file you downloaded by mistake

Oh. I didn't know that worked. Thanks for the fix! :)
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
It's a bug in LP.. My Z3 Compact doesn't show the network operator in the toggle either unless you toggle airplane mode.. But it will only last until a reboot. There won't be a fix for this ROM until Google/HTC release it. This is a pure stock rom with just root.. that means you get what you get and nothing get's fixed until it's fixed in an official release. No features added, no bugs fixed etc... So you'll be waiting until someone makes a separate mod that fixes it or until the next OTA if it's fixed in that..

[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
No, you need to be s-off to flash a firmware zip unless it was made for your CID/MID
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You can only flash a firmware.zip in RUU mode but no, as long as there is no system.img in the zip or userdata image in the zip it will not wipe data. the firmware zip contains the hboot/bootloader, radio, stock recovery, boot.img/kernel and a couple other driver partitions that get updated (sensor drivers, touchscreen, etc..)

PSA: wiping sdcard in recovery

PSA, do not wipe your internal sdcard in your recovery (TWRP, Philz)

This will result in a blank screen after booting.

To fix this, flash any custom rom (eg. cyanogenmod). Let it boot until it's at the setup.

Then reflash this rom and it should work all normally.

It seems that this rom is unable to place any files on the sdcard after it has been wiped via TWRP.

Cheers.

I had the previous Rooted 5.01 RUU installed via SD Card. Never could even get it to tell me an update was available much less fail because of root. I had all my apps backed up to the Google Cloud via the Andorid settings. Downloaded the new 5.1 non-rooted RUU and installed from SD card again. Worked flawlessly and upon restart it was a clean image again on 5.1.

The Google Cloud restore began immedietely and reloaded all apps and gmail. Only had to put in my wifi password again and setup my work email. Just an fyi if someone is stuck with no OTA.

Decided to not load root as I have not needed it once.

Any review about stability and battery
[One (M8) Android Development] r2d-two:
Does it work on VZ-branded M8 which is being used only on TMobile network?

I know it has been said many times throughout the thread that this GPE ROM does not work for Vz and Sprint M8.

However, which of the following further explanations for the "does not work" is correct?

1. The ROM will not install at all on the Vz/Sprint branded M8

2. The ROM can be installed on the Vz/Sprint branded M8's, but the devices won't boot

3. After it boots, the Vz/Sprint branded M8 will no longer be able to attach to the Vz/Sprint network, but the ROM actually boots.

I ask because I have a Vz M8 (with stock SENSE ROM) which I am successfully using on the Tmobile network (everything is working fine: SMS, MMS, LTE, phone calls, etc...). However, I would really prefer to have the GPE ROM on this Vz-Branded M8 and not the SENSE ROM. I have no plans of using this device on Vz nor Sprint, ever...

So, ideally, it would be cool if I could flash the TMobile firmware unto it and install the GPE and use it on Tmobile network...

Please, can someone answer my questions above?

Thanks!

Just a quick question, is this rom any different from skydragon 5.1 rom ?

i mean in functioning ? or does it have the same system files and performance ?

does anybody use car bluetooth ? i can never disconnect call from the buttons in my car, but i can make a call

i have to always take out my phone to disconnect the call

the problem is there on all 5.01 gpe roms and its present on 5.1 also

but never face this issue on sense lolipop

[One (M8) Android Development] hussainmushahid:
are we only supposed to wipe data/factory reset in recovery or wipe system too ?

I'm sorry, I'm a first time M8 user who used to wipe the system partition on his Nexus 5 hence the question.

Also I hope I wont run into problem with a S-ON M8(non GPE) but one with a custom recovery and unlocked bootloader :)
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
It's a stock rom.. by default there is write protection enabled on /system. You need to use a kernel that disables it or a kernel module (if one is still floating around and will work on 5.1) another way but PITA is to use the file explorer in TWRP and delete the files in recovery. That is the only way you can make things stick on the stock rom.

Skydragon is a custom rom so it has lots of things that a stock rom does not have. As the title states.. this is a stock rom.. no modifications other than root... I don't use BT so can't tell ya.. whatever bugs are in the official release are in this release.

When you flash the rom it wipes /system for you.

[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
It's not deleting files to enable writing to the .system. Whatever files the guy who posted was trying to remove. He was trying to remove apps, so you just delete the apks.. If you're modifying a file, you need to push it to your sd card, then use the file manager in twp to move it, then change it's permissions etc.... like I said.. PITA..

5.1 Sim Card not working

Hi I have a problem with RUU-HTC_One_M8_GPE_5.0.1-3.11.1700.5_rooted.zip.

Previously I had RUU-HTC_One_M8_GPE_5.1-4.04.1700.4_rooted.zip working on the HTC M8 a 100%.

Decided to flash to 5.1.

Since flashing, the phone doesn't see the Sim card even though the Sim card works in another phone.

I tried reflashing using the same method as before which is RUU flash via fastboot. It sees the device and says max download size of 1826418688 bytes sending zip 636877 KB and hangs.

Had no problem the first time flashing it to 5.1 just that the Sim card is not working. WIFI works.

Tried flashing the Firmware zip and the same things happens i.e. quotes a download max size then the size of the zip file.

Any ideas please would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there, am a new member, just bought an M8 Developer Edition. Want to convert to GPE, have you perhaps succeeded? Thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] cheese74:
Just to follow up on what I did, I did also receive the OTA notification on my stock rooted 5.0.1 GPE and tried rather foolishly to try to update. It failed as expected but left the update.zip file in the /cache directory. Since I was rooted, I copied it out to my host PC.

I then used the SuperSU to unroot itself before booting into recovery mode. Selected the option to sideload, and used the host PC connected via USB to sideload the update.zip file. It appeared to patch all the files with the exception of an error at the end indicating some issue mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p37 to /data to copy a file called fotaboot.

After that, I cleared the cache, and booted up. Seems to be working fine so far after the initial rebuilding of the apps.

My only concern now is whether if the OTA script upgraded the firmware given the error above since it's one of the last thing it does (looking at the META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script). Is there any way to check if the firmware (boot, radio, hboot, recovery) has the correct versions?
