Yeah I updated my Firmware and there is no Eye Experience I was just wondering if it will come with a future update of your Rom Thanks Sneaky has answered and said yes

Hi guys. I'm currently S-OFF, super CID, 3.28.401.6 fw with Viper 2.5.0 w/o any problem whatsoever. Here's what I did...

>>Did a nandroid backup of my Viper 2.5.0.

>>Restored a stock nandroid backup I downloaded from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 for my CID (htc__621 for my device)

>>Installed sunshine and did S-OFF with it.

I would be interested to hear your thoughts and experience with this combo of newest FW and Viper 2.5.0 especially regarding battery usage and also radio reception quality. Cheers!
[One (M8) Android Development] HC4Life:
I'm running ViperOne M8 with new FW and works like a charm, good battery life, good wifi reception...i say go for it! :)
[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
I've been running it for 5 days now. Everything works great!
[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
Cheers guys...will be updating pronto :)
[One (M8) Android Development] syaoran68:
at this point its pretty safe. the new 3.28 firmware includes v46 of the ADSP which is new. if you flash the hk switcher from the venom hub and you don't flash the new ADSP you will lose sound on the stock music player. any other music player will work fine just not the stock HTC one lols..

if you choose to install the ADSP from the venom hub hk switcher you will revert back to v45 of the ADSP which should be fine and you'll get music back through the stock HTC music app. but some have touted that v46 brings some upgrades. i currently have the new v46 on BS instead of HK. heck i even turned the BS option off and i'm just using the standalone ADSP and everything is extremely neutral and balanced. :laugh:

just some extra info
[One (M8) Android Development] AndyLeJizm:
Just a quick question, can I flash the newest firmware and boot 2.5 normally? I have supercid, s-off and currently running 2.5. Want to make sure I can boot as I use my phone alot. :D Thanks!
[One (M8) Android Development] syaoran68:
yes it is possible to use 3.28 with viper 2.5 if you want a foolproof guide use [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION] 's FUU or zip and it should be like a 5 minute thing lols. thats what i did.
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Best battery life! :D

37 hours uptime, 6 SOT, but no mobile data the whole time.

(I should add that I usually get 18 maximum, so it has doubled)

The main factor I notice is I get almost zero unnatural wakelock's anymore - seems like firmware and ROM now like each other better.
[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
That sounds absolutely awesome indeed!!!

Btw just flashed the new FW :good:

[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Not much we can do about that. The usual answer. These wakelock issues are an android tradition. Everyone blames everyone else. Usually it's just bad wakelock management in apps and/or how users use their apps. In my case I honestly suspect the stable Wi-Fi was the reason I got this good result. Usually I'm on mobile data through the week and with bad coverage, which makes my constantly syncing phone go crazy with Google wakelocks.

[One (M8) Android Development] Thermaltake868:
Could be that... or maybe some mysterious script sucking that battery :D
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Script. Yeah right...

mobile post
[One (M8) Android Development] mushages:
The best way to get rid of wakelocks in my case and my personal research for this issue:

- keep location services on if you want but disable (Google location reporting) [reduces NlP wakelocks].

- be connected to a stable WiFi or Network Data.

- wakelocks mostly caused by sync operations.

- wakelocks will stay longer if you are connected to a wireless network that has no internet or bad mobile data network as it will try to sync longer.

For me the huge improvement was done by disabling Google location services and Google now.
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Thanks. Aware of that. Maxed out all options. Location is never on. My problem mainly comes from the phone constantly switching between really bad edge and really bad Wi-Fi.

I've just talked my boss into removing the AP from its far away location, lengthen the fiber connection and put the AP into a more reasonable place. ;)

[One (M8) Android Development] jerico9:
Bit of help if you will, I've tried to read up and can't seem to find an answer. I know its going to be something stupid.

I was on 2.2.x 4.4.2. Wanted to upgrade but as I understood I had to return to stock, so tried to find my CID o2__001 and couldn't however someone did post the stock recovery i needed 2.xxxx. Flashed that, used my backup and got the OTA. I then re-put the custom recovery on TWRP. Downloaded 2.5.0, placed it on my SD, went to TWRP done the wipe and then install. Got error can not open zip? I've done nothing that i haven't done before. So I used Flashify to flash the zip but got an error also.

I done a complete restore and tried again and got the same error. I've removed it, redownloaded it and I keep getting the error. Any help would be good

Thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
Use this method.

It's super easy and safe, plus the thread has instructions for going SuperCID.
[One (M8) Android Development] jerico9:
I'm still a bit of a NOOB? I was looking to do the super CID when I couldn't find my CID. I came across something somewhere saying that, If you have S off, Super CID and Unlocked bootloader, the OTA for android L would not work.

Didn't read it too much as it wasn't what I was looking for. When I read about super CID, I tried to find the post, but couldn't.

If I do the super CID, does that mean I will get the OTA updates quicker?:confused:

Anyways, Thanks very much for the pointer!!!!!!:good:
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
When saying "2.5.0" I assume you mean our ROM. Please check on the following:

TWRP often needs a fastboot erase cache after you have flashed it.

Also check the ROM's MD5 after you put it on the phone.

Also make sure you're on official TWRP 2.8.0.3 or captain_throwback's 2.8.0.4.

Also you might need to reformat cache before you start from within TWRP (that's only if the log window reports "error: cannot mount cache").

Also try to put the zip on the internal as TWRP used to have a severe issue with external exFAT formatted cards. The issue is assumed to be resolved but it could still be present and break your zip.

Also make sure you transfer the ROM zip from within android or via adb when in recovery - the new MTP feature might still be buggy and so might be UMS.

mobile post
[One (M8) Android Development] jerico9:
Thanks SG.

I think I get all that.

I have tried from both IntSD and ExSD

How do I check the MD5? I downloaded it direct from the team venom site. I think I know what its for? It matches up the file so it confirms it matches?

Again Thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
If you can boot into android somehow, install an md5 checker app, select the ROM zip, let it calculate the md5 hash, then paste the hash from the website and see if it matches.

I use this one:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fab.md5

mobile post
[One (M8) Android Development] jerico9:
Ok pal, I'll give it a whirl.

I've tried a few more times, Doing what you said and the error every time is unable to open zip.

As I said I'll try the MD5.:good:

I've got full access to my device. Not bricked in anyway. Just keep going back to my stock back up and trying again.
[One (M8) Android Development] jerico9:
Ok so I done the MD5 using the app you linked. I ran the calculation and the numbers didn't match up on my device the last 5 digits 3bb3f. I also used an online checker. I did the file itself from my downloads folder and that had a totally different hash number altogether.

i'll try run it again see what happens
[One (M8) Android Development] syaoran68:
If it doesn't match up you'll have to redownload the file again since something most likely got corrupted

Your is version is blank because of a bug of an older trwp version, that wiped it.

Simply flash the last available one. That's fine.

There's Nandroids and then Recoveries.... So I assume I grab the CWS__001 Nandroid, but which Recovery?
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:

Please see here, your phone is AT&T. You need to change to superCID and S-OFF to be able to flash international firmware.

If you're S-ON, you will need to rely on AT&T's update process and wait.

[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Why don't you just flash my "NoWipe" full package if you're S-OFF? I don't get all these issues, it's super simple and I collect info since 3 years and try to aggregate them in my threads so matters are clear. There's even a reasonably extensive error code description with strategies to solve them. What else can you ask for? If you're not able to solve this with the available info, you might want to flash some stock ROM and enjoy that (or buy an iPhone, for that matter).

I have a work life as well and I keep getting tapatalk notifications with confused questions I already answered. Try to solve this yourself.

Or maybe some other users can help you. I'm already getting angry again.

Anyone seem to have an issue trying to change to ART over Dalvik?

Mine seems to just reboot and never stay in ART. Was wanting to try it out since about version 2.4 I have not been getting that great of battery life. The lowest I can seem to get my battery drain is currently 3.2% per hour. Most of drain is coming from the Kernel. Before version 2.4 maybe 2.2 or so I was down to 1% or .8% per hour. I am on sprint Firmware 2.16.65x.4 Not sure if when this firmware was put in place along with going to 4.4.2 did the issues really start. Device boots quickly which I know that I read that if you weren't on the correct firmware it would take a long time.

Just not sure what I should check

usage details for the Kernel are (after 14 hours) 414 wakelocks which is at the front of the android system. I run greenify and usually do quite well with all the crap getting hibernated but it seems to not be helping that much lately.

Thoughts or any other information needed would be much appreciated or I would be happy to supply.
[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
Make sure to uninstall Xposed from within the app itself...there's an option to uninstall. That will solve your problem. Afterwards set to ART in dev menu and reboot...
[One (M8) Android Development] syaoran68:
i would try a fresh start. if you havent it might help. i had the same problem and was hovering around 3.3%/hr. I've tried ART and xposed and unbounce and pretty much anything to keep wakelocks and alarms from causing too much battery drain but found that usage determines alot as well as where you are and how good your signal is. it just turned out i was in an area where signal is just ****ty all the time lols. but i tried a clean flash with my bare essentials first and i'm getting great battery life right now.
[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
Just wanted to come back after a couple of days running Viper 2.5.0 on the latest FW (just released a couple of days ago). The battery usage is superb! Really like nothing else I have experienced so far, unlike any other rom, kernel, fw combo before. Yesterday I ran the phone basically all day listening to music continuously, surfing, hours of flipboard use, all on wifi with brightness to auto (but fairly high due to sunlight environment), sync on. Over 50% battery left after 15 hours! That is incredible in my book :good: :highfive:
[One (M8) Android Development] darksurfr:
Yea I think I did a fresh install after going to a Dark theme and then moved back. The dark theme messed something up and I thought I followed their instructions to do a full install of 2.5 prior to installing dark but whatever.

Hello,

sorry for off question, i have downloaded latest viper rom and just saw 4.4.4 is coming (beta testing)

i am on ARD 20.1 which is already on 4.4.4

i wanted to try Viper which is 4.4.3 at the moment. Can i downgrade to this rom in recovery without any issues ?

my phone is s-off unlocked

sorry m new to HTC world

thanks in advance :)

gee
[One (M8) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
There's only the 4.4.3 Viper yet and it will still be a while till we have 3.0 ready, which would be 4.4.4.

The first run I did last night and it does indeed look good but it's not done yet. There's still parts missing.

So, you can just stay on the current Viper once flashed.

But to answer your question exactly: yes, even if you updated to the new ROM when it's released, you could still go back.

I suggest you then backup your old ViperOne and in case of problems with the new Viper, restore the backup.

That's what we all do.

this is going to be my 2nd rom and i'll make a backup before downgrading to 4.4.3

viper looks promising :)
