Problem with earphones

Hello

First let me thank you for this wonderful rom. I have been using android for 5 years and this is the best rom I have come across.

I have venom 4.3.0 and flashed the sense 7 mod. Everything works perfectly well but the earphones. When I plug in the earphones I cannot raise the volume. Whenever I try to raise the volume I get an error that system.iu has stopped.

Any idea why this is happening? I wiped everything and reflashed the rom and the mod and the problem persists.

Thank you in advance

Hello, thanks a lot for this wonderful update, look at the LONG changelog!!

I would like to request a feature: Is it possible to add more volume steps in future updates? Again thanks for the update :)!!
[One (M8) Android Development] marcoxx626:
Wow awesome update!did you guys get a chance to look at the issues with auto brightness?
[One (M8) Android Development] Happy2cu:
Virtual Buttons

My 3 virtual buttons are gone after update??:confused:
[One (M8) Android Development] c5satellite2:
Me too, hard to use the phone without them. HELP!

I did the ota from 1.31. Tried clear cache and dalvik, still missing.
[One (M8) Android Development] Happy2cu:
3 virtual buttons gone

Ive gone back to the 1.30!!
[One (M8) Android Development] adamlee011:
Get out of town! I just tested that! Just go in tweaks/buttons/navbar and choose stock or venom.
[One (M8) Android Development] shawn0223:
No joke, that's a ****ing update lol. So many new things to play with. X2 on that auto brightness thing. 7-10 seconds for it to adjust is slow but not a deal breaker for me (unlike Marco lol) gonna update as soon as I'm home once I see some confirmation that the virtual keys are fact there. Thanks again for the update. Best Rom on the m8 by far imo
[One (M8) Android Development] Turge:
We tried to replicate the issue but couldn't. You can always re-enable the navbar as described by Adam.
[One (M8) Android Development] c5satellite2:
Was already set on stock, switched to venom, rebooted, got them back but hidden, swipe to expose, then set it back to stock and they are back to normal. Thanks!
[One (M8) Android Development] patmannyc:
Reenabling the stock navbar doesn't work. Only venom is working. I'm using pie for now

Screen shots coming
[One (M8) Android Development] adamlee011:
Look at the post above yours. He got it working. Try enabling venom nav, reboot, enable stock navl, l reboot. You should definitely be able to get default navbar back unless you have something else interfering with it.
[One (M8) Android Development] patmannyc:
I will try the above but here are the pics
[One (M8) Android Development] c5satellite2:
Stock working here after changing to venom, reboot, change back to stock, reboot again.

Anyone know why my venom heqs switched to stock and how can I get back venom?

Also XDA app wouldn't load any forums, favorites, etc after the ota, had to go into apps, stop XDA and delete app cache, then it worked again.
[One (M8) Android Development] bpdev:
Stock navbar doesn't seem to act normally. I mean the highlights are smaller now and it seems slower.
[One (M8) Android Development] patmannyc:
The changing and rebooting worked. Thanks for the big update!
[One (M8) Android Development] adamlee011:
Ok good. Glad it worked for a few of you. I guess the rest need to just file those steps and reboot after each
[One (M8) Android Development] buddahj:
I'm having the same issue. I went into the edit option in the drop down & added them back in. I tried to reload my status bar theme & it won't theme these anymore.

[One (M8) Android Development] optiknerv:
Never one for asking of ETAs but is development on a new release in process? I'm not asking for a date just interested to know if we will see a fully featured Sense 7 release of Viper One M8 with all tweaks?
[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
There has been nothing new released for the M8 for quite a while, and the devs are waiting on the new Sense which will be released next month. The ROM is working well, and the devs have been putting a lot of effort into the M9, so there hasn't been any time to do a small incremental update to ViperOneM8. There are a lot of changes in the way everything works with the new Sense.

So, yes. It is in fact being worked on by working with M9 to understand the changes that will come with the next official M8 release.

Is there beta testing started on a new ROM for M8 yet? No. But soon. And believe me, I'm getting impatient as well. I didn't upgrade to M9.
[One (M8) Android Development] optiknerv:
I didn't realise there was an imminent release from HTC so that would explain the reason to wait. That is fine for me I just wanted to know it hadn't been abandoned.

Update "htc sense home"

Hi,

I can see that there is an update available for the htc sense home.

Is it safe to update? Will it affect the tweaks?

Thanks.
[One (M8) Android Development] steezee:
Updating Sense home will break certain tweaks... but your mileage may vary depending on which tweaks you are using there is a post on the VenomRoms website about the huge differences in the coding between the Rom version and Play store version...

It is not recommended to update Sense home, but if you do be prepared to uninstall the updates
[One (M8) Android Development] grat_master:
How can you guys like Lollipop ? I used it less than 10 minutes and hated it so much.

Much less tweakings, no more top quick settings, no more xposed, could never change that absurd lime green blinkfeed color, always getting android upgrading on each reboot, and more and more

I don't find it an upgrade at all. Reverted back to 3.2.1 and it's so much more fun to use that phone. I think I'll wait until everything as been sorted out and Team Venom update it.
[One (M8) Android Development] grat_master:
Did you full wipe before flashing ?

That alone can solve many problems.
[One (M8) Android Development] TrainAss:
Yes. Multiple times.
[One (M8) Android Development] smknutson:
Xposed works on Lollipop
[One (M8) Android Development] Kolczyk:
To change appearance of BlinkFeed HTC One M8, do as follows:

1. Open Settings and go to Personalize

2. Tap to open Theme settings

3. As you can see, there are 4 color theme options to choose, and you just need to touch your favorite theme and hit the Apply button.

4. A message appears on the screen and you can choose whether to change the wallpaper (which is based on your new theme) or not.

Status 7 is normally outdated recovery or corrupted download. Check md5 at the location you're trying to install from (not the download location but the final location you're clicking to install). And use the latest TWRP, I believe it's 2.8.7.0, I see you already have it so I'd just re download and try again
[One (M8) Android Development] grat_master:
I think I did it more than 20 times. The blinkfeed color never changed.

I also installed Xposed from TWRP .zip installer and it prevented my phone to boot up. Needed to reflash Rom and full wipe again.

I don't know what I did wrong or where was all the settings, but one thing for sure I prefer how Notification Bar is on KitKat and everything else. Maybe it works for others, but for me I had no luck.
[One (M8) Android Development] TrainAss:
I'm at a loss for performing the MD5 check within TWRP. I've got an MD5 file, with the hash from the ViperOneM8 download page. Everything looks correct but TWRP is still throwing up a message that there's no MD5. *sigh* :crying:
[One (M8) Android Development] thefoodman52:
Issues I've had with this ROM.

1. Randomly the bottom speaker and right channel of the stereo output (headphones and phone speakers) drops out.

2. Randomly, again, the dialer will wonk out, and give me a completely green screen after I place a call. Only way to interact with the call is to hang up via notification shade with end button.

3. Random battery drain issues. Tried keeping minimal apps installed, limited to power amp and some google apps that I frequent. No fix.

4. Random slow downs, GUI hang up, etc. Seems to fix after rebooting only.

5. Radio locking up. Can't fix this one. It's random, but after awhile, I'll see that the phone is refusing to receive data. It's sending, as I tested with mms and SMS to my girlfriend. Rebooting will fix it temporarily, but it varies widely between when it locks up.

For now, I'm on LeeDroid until I see another update show up here.

*Must be said here*

I have tried many times with clean-downloads, and clean wipes and re-flashes. I never do dirty flashes. I've been dealing with these issues for some months now, just been lazy up until yesterday and dealt with them instead of jumping off of the ROM entirely.
[One (M8) Android Development] Kratos90:
Just use a regular md5 checker from your phone and check it at the place where you will try to install it from in TWRP, sometimes things get corrupted while moving from one place to the other,sdcard to external SD etc.
[One (M8) Android Development] elevatorguy:
Am I blind or is the option to move quick settings to the bottom of the notification panel moved or removed?
[One (M8) Android Development] TrainAss:
I verified that the MD5 that shows on my phone is the same as on the download page. Also got the MD5 check working in TWRP (need to have the MD5 file as filename.zip.md5 for it to work) and everything checks out. Even tried the previous version (4.2.0_Ver2) and get the same thing. Always seems to fail when it's finishing the Busybox install.
[One (M8) Android Development] dragontology:
I got this.

Venom Tweaks needs an update. Currently what it does is, it simply automates a known HTC One M8 tweak. If you delete or rename the HTC lock screen file, you can use the AOSP lock screen. But be advised, if you do this, you lose the ability to use the gestures. No more swiping up to unlock, no more double tapping to get to the lock screen. HTC went and tied those functions to its lock screen.

If you still want to do it, you need to rename *both* lock screens. One is in /system/app and the other is in /data/app. And I do recommend renaming them, rather than deleting them.

With all due respect, how heavy are you using your phone? I have light to moderate usage, and I get through the day on a full charge.. I charge when I'm going to bed, and when I plug it up, it's around 30-50%, and I have a boatload of apps installed. Not much for gaming, though I do have Monument Valley. (I'll remove it when I finish it. It isn't hard, I'm just taking my time with it.) I have Facebook but I have notifications turned off. Same with Google+. I don't use Twitter, and for my Reddit app of choice, I do have notifications turned on, but I rarely get them.

Also, power packs are awesome. I have a cheap Motorola one, says it's 2,200mAh, and you'd think that would fully charge an M8 from ~20%, but you'd be wrong, it's good for about 30% and that's it, so it'll go from 50% to 80% and then need to be charged up again. Sometimes I need it, so I carry it with me.
[One (M8) Android Development] tonyafc:
Thank you i knew about the renaming but on renamed the priv/app one all sorted now cheers
[One (M8) Android Development] thefoodman52:
I have considered power packs, but haven't had a constant enough issue to warrant making one for my phone.

I wouldn't even say that I'm big a power user most days. I just play music over a Bluetooth speaker most of the day from music on my phone. I'm active Navy, and as such, most of my working day is onboard a ship, with airplane mode on. The only time my radio is on, usually not even with data (I just had it set to keep mobile data ticked off after), is during lunch for about an hour.

Depending on if I read books on it, or if I'm playing music, I'd make it home with a wide range of battery left. Anywhere from 80-60% some days, then other days it would be dead by 16:00, or lingering around 8%, without any drastic change in use. My working time is around 06:40-16:30 for perspective, with the music starting to get played around 08:30, going to around 11:00. Screen is almost always off, and I use one of my two Wear watches to control music while I walk around.

Again, I had tried many fresh downloads, from the computer at home and straight over the phone. I tried running without all the apps (forgiving poweramp), tried keeping power saver on. Just wasn't predictable. I had gone down the road of under clock and voltage tweaking, but it had minor impacts, and just generally left me frustrated with the increase in latency and lagging draw time system wide with that.

There's other things I'm noticing now as well. Since running leedroid all day today onboard (duty day), I've noticed something that I had grown accustomed to. The phone now immediately picks up signal after a long period of airplane mode standby. With viper, it can take up to 20 minutes sometimes with me to even get a lock on a tower, and then only start pulling 2g/edge.

I'm now able to grab full LTE, signal strength in my area forgiving, significantly faster. Like, under 50 seconds. 2g/edge is almost instantaneous.

Also, now with LeeDroid, DVC with poweramp doesn't grant me wonky volume fluttering when I seek through the playtime of any given songs. The volume is constant, and doesn't flutter down then flare back up after 1 second of buffering, with the same exact settings.

I think there's some more serious problems underlying viper right now. Worse yet, I don't believe they'll be fixed either with the M9 and M9+ out now.

I'll be the first to say, LeeDroid is decidedly lacking with the tweaking options and added mod packs. However, it simply works better, runs smoother, and doesn't have any problems that were showing up with this ROM. It sucks that it's so much closer to stock, but I can deal with it.
[One (M8) Android Development] purple patch:
With so many apps and wearables these days, it's hard to blame a rom for draining battery. If it were, we would see constant posts like yours. I also get excessive battery drains some days without different use. Possible a wearable or app is draining it. Get a battery pack as one user suggested. I can charge my phone 2 times off battery pack. You can use battery app if you want to work it out as well. As for signal issue, I've never had that problem with viper. Any problems will be fixed still, just not many problems to fix:)

[One (M8) Android Development] dragontology:
What is the mAh rating of your power pack? I'm wondering if you're getting the fully advertised power, or if the mAh in a power pack does not translate 1:1 to power for the device.

One day I'll get an Anker 10,000mAh+ unit and be able to get more than 30% gained per power pack charge... It would be nice to have one that can recharge my phone 3+ times.

(I say power pack because that's what Amazon calls them, though "battery pack" is probably more accurate in terms of what it actually does.)
[One (M8) Android Development] purple patch:
Don't have it with me sorry, but sure it's only 5000mah. Got it online in sale. Used to get 3 charges but has slowly got worse. Thought at least 2 charges was pretty standard for these battery packs.

For all those who are stating that ViperROM is a battery drainer, see my screenshot with GSAM battery monitor.

This phone is used as company phone and I am using it lot. Although my usage is average.
[One (M8) Android Development] purple patch:
Completely agree viper is not draining battery. But lol, I use my phone way more than that. Think I loose that much charge in an hour or two. Just proves every user is different.
[One (M8) Android Development] goodtimes50:
Ever since updating to 4.3.0 (from 3.1.0) I've had consistent issues with the lock screen behavior. It's dialed 911 while in my pocket multiple times it answers incoming calls while still in my pocket. It seems the lock screen is much more sensitive to touches. Has anyone else noticed this? Is there anything that can be done?

[One (M8) Android Development] Robert's PDA:
Yeah, I agree with jkolner, PowerAmp is AWESOME. I had been using the stock music player forever til I one day just gave it a try, never looked back. I have been using it for a pretty long while now so I have every little detail of the settings just right. From different bass levels or volumes for different tracks, to the way it acts on my lock screen. It's just perfect. There are SO MANY options at your fingertips. It's wonderful to be able to fine tune every little nuance of the way it works, looks, & sounds.
[One (M8) Android Development] odnamra87:
Hi all !

I am currently on Viper 4.3.0 s-on and coming from T-mobile carier (have it unlocked). I am having a strange experience, previously I had it posted here that my M8 upper screen is not responding at all. I tought it was a hardware issue, because I did factory reset and re-flashed it and outcome was the same. But then, suddenly it went ok, the upper part of the touchscreen was working.

As for now, sometimes I find out that the status bar does act like it is being pressed and drag altough I don't even touch it. I am thinking to repartition using twrp 2.8, do you think it will fix this issue? Any other way that I should try?

Should I flash RUU? If yes, can I use the international RUU or should I stick with T-mobile RUU?

Thanks for any advices and comments :)
[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
In my opinion, you were correct at first. It sounds like a hardware issue.
[One (M8) Android Development] odnamra87:
But it is ok for now...only that sometimes my status bar is dragging by it self. I wonder if anyone has faced same issue.

If I want to flash RUU, do I have to use T-mobile RUU?

Hello,

I have some issues with the website. In the forum page and the the user guide page, I am redirected to a white page : "502 BAD GATEWAY"

I installed the Rom yesterday for the first time. I was surprised there was no xposed tab. Is xposed no longer supported by the Rom ?
