You know I'm not an expert on this... and I don't know. What I do know is if you are running on a Sense partition size and you flash the GPE hboot then there are issues...

I'm also pretty sure the firmware is not universal and things like the radio.img would brick your Verizon M8 or a least not function properly on CDMA networks...

If you were using modified firmware on a Verizon M8 could you have been running a modified Sense Hboot with no red text and was inverted to look like the GPe?

I konw on GSM devices when using the GPe firmware with no hboot there are no issues with running Sense ROMs, everything works as it should. So if the modified firmware you were using was just inverted to look like the GPe then obviously you wouldn't have issues with running Sense.

Well if your devices is still stock did you not get the OTA yet? You can side load the OTA... https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982086988973

While yes it's labeled as a conversion it's still an RUU, so you can still use it. Just for you it's not "converting", lol it's just an RUU.

I edited the OP to clarify that now.
[One (M8) Android Development] anthropolyte:
Just a heads up, the old issue with GPE and WiFi still applies to Marshmallow - namely that WiFi appears to stay connected when the phone is in deep sleep, but cuts connectivity, so no data gets through until the phone is woken up. This results in no notifications etc being received. Note that I have updated to the latest MM firmware/radio as well, so this appears to be a power saving and/or hardware issue.
[One (M8) Android Development] russjr08:
I definitely was using GPE's hboot, I had the unlocked padlock on startup and such, but it must've been modified somehow because it specified it was carrier universal. I think it was in DH's thread but I'll have to go back and check.

Either way I think you're right about messing something up if you flash the stock one on CDMA so I'll err away from that for now lol.

Thanks!

Issues

1. WiFi may drop out when the screen is off. This issue involves more then just firmware. 5.0.1 and 5.1 used new DHCP protocols, 6.0's protocols are updated and work better on legacy devices but you may have less or no drop out issues with newer WiFi routers.
[One (M8) Android Development] anthropolyte:

How to get ext sd card working in Titanium Backup

Ah wait I figured it out...

1. Go to backup folder location, select "Storage provider: External Storage (click to change)"

2. Then select "DocumentProvider storage"

3. The menu in the top left corner, select Sd card. Make sure your in the root of the sd card when you press select in the lower right corner.

4. Then you will pick the sub-folder of your back-up location with titanium.

[YOUTUBE]2wpTxEzU-Jw[/YOUTUBE]
[One (M8) Android Development] Matte93:
Now is working thanks. You must select the sub folder inside Titanium after selecting the root of the sd card as you said. If you select the sub folder from the beginning it doesn't work. They should add this note somewhere.

Thanks for the video but I had already solved when I saw it :D

noob question -- firmware M8 rev?

Hey All -- currently running SkyDragon 10.2, SEnse 7 with TMob firmware 4.20 (installed from sneakyghost).

I would like to run GPE-MM and option to not change /system partition size sounds great.

It seems that sneakyghost posts the latest available M8 firmware for major carriers (HERE).

Am I getting confused as to what constitutes M8 "firmware"?

Is there a v5x fimware available for Tmob M8? I'm posting msg to Sneakyghost thread asking if three are v5 firmwares in wild that will be posted to that thread as well.

any insight would be appreciated. thanks -GA
[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
Current firmware isn't very important. You are going to run an RUU which will update your firmware to the latest for GPE.
[One (M8) Android Development] gads1:
hello and thx for reply. I suggest there may be miscommunication.

I will NOT be running RUU because this ROM has option to install without RUU and not changing the /system partition to GPE default size (this allows for revert to Sense ROM in future easier ..).

Thus, the requirements on this ROM talk about flashable ZIP assuming I have correct v5x firmware in place.

am I off base? -GA
[One (M8) Android Development] xunholyx:
The v5x is confusing to me. And I don't see it in OP. I do see in flashable ROMs where it says you need Sense 6 5.0.1

If you are on the latest T-Mo firmware, I'm pretty sure you are good to go.

Make a backup and flash the ROM.
[One (M8) Android Development] Skyh:
I was finally able to get V4A to install. Or more precisely, the driver installs, but the OS doesn't appear to load the library on startup.

Here's all that I believe needs to be done:

1. Install V4A. If you want to follow exactly what I did, I flashed the zip from http://xdaforums.com/android/software/app-material-viper4android-2-3-4-0u-t3190352. I cannot verify whether or not it is necessary to flash that zip, which also runs a script to remove MusicFX, etc.

2. Find the file /system/etc/htc_audio_effects.conf and move this file out of /system/etc. I highly recommend do not delete this file. You know, just in case it doesn't work and you need to put it back or something. Personally I moved it to my SD card.

3. Reboot your phone.

Just so people are aware, I have not done extensive testing, but V4A is 100% functional for me now after doing this.

Hello,

does anybody knows, how to disable the fullscreen caller screen, when the sceen is on? I mean when I have e.g. navigation running, and somebody calls, I only want to see head up with the caller information. Now, the navigation screen is overlayed with the fullscreen call.

Thank you Jan
[One (M8) Android Development] enewman17:
Your just confusing yourself. The 5.x firmware is GPE.

Just flash the rom don't worry about what firmware you on, if you are...

The latest firmware for each carrier is posted in the op, Sense and GPE.
[One (M8) Android Development] Matte93:
I've flashed the ROM. My system partition is 2,6 GB and my Data partition is 10,9. My phone is a 16 GB where are the 2,5 that are missing? Is it normal?
[One (M8) Android Development] 53970:
I had the same issue. Solved by doing the following steps:

1. Backup with twrp to ext sd card

2. In twrp wipe caches, data & system

3. Flash ROM

4. Restore backup

Now my system partition has got 1,75GB free ?
[One (M8) Android Development] enewman17:
I was unaware they made a 16gig version. That would be normal as a 16 gig would have liked 15.3 gig available to start minus the 2.6 for the /system partition, then the eemc for all the firmware takes up space so minus another couple hundred meg... Then /data would get the rest.
[One (M8) Android Development] Venomenon:
How did you manage to make permanent changes to /system? I could get it to be mounted it as rw but every change I make is gone after a reboot. So for example moving the htc_audio_effects.conf works but rebooting magically restores it.

Oh my god, thank you so much for posting this. I habe been beating my head against the wall for over a week trying everything I could to get it to work. I just removed the .conf file and music fx from /system/priv-app, then installed the app as usual. Maybe you could post a thread in the general section to let everyone know how to get it working. :good:
[One (M8) Android Development] Viper4713:
Thanks, got it working but for some odd reason I can't recover my old Profile! its on my Internal SD storage but doesn't show up in V4A, I made a test Profile that works, but I have no clue where its saved to, it didn't go to the original V4A folder :/ So I don't know where this unknown working folder is.

EDIT: Never mind I found a solution Here.
[One (M8) Android Development] Viper4713:
I moved to MM today and it seems like I have had to fix about 3 things so far but now I am stuck on the last thing.

Switching to Marshmallow my External SD card file name changed from "/storage/ext_sd" to "/storage/FA57-0973"

I ignored the SD card Marshmallow prompt but still results to this, I have tried to rename the folder with solid explorer and more with nothing but an error "can not change file name, unknown error"

The SD card works correctly however many of my previous apps are confused, can't find N64 roms and such, Poweramp can find music but wipes all playlists including "Recently Added", how can I change the folder back to "ext_sd"? is there a way to do it in fastboot? I can't do it in TWRP because the folder "Storage" doesn't exist instead the folder "external_sd" is by it self.
[One (M8) Android Development] rodbacon:
Thanks for this post. I eventually got it working, after solving some busybox challenges left over (I suspect) from an old flash gone wrong.
[One (M8) Android Development] thelangosta:
I have been wondering how to fix this myself. Total commander listed my external as USB. It also has it listed twice. And if i dig around in total commander i can find it listed as the numbers. So I've seen my external listed as the series of numbers in total commander, titanium backup and at least one other file manager.

I can't cut and paste a file from downloads on the internal to a folder on my external. Somehow I think some stuff is still write protected even though I have flashed the wp_mod zip from topjohnwu.
[One (M8) Android Development] Viper4713:
After I posted this I continued to mess with this problem, I have no writing restrictions, I have a custom kernel, S-OFF, it all checks out, I just can't update that folder name and I think I might know why.

It seems that Marshmallow simply reads SD cards differently now and its kind of screwed up at the same time, on my PC it shows as "Sandisk SD Card" when I never named it that, I restored my Lollipop backup to check and see to find out it was fixed and said "ext_sd" again and on my PC it said "SD Card"

I then clean flashed MM again with this same issue "random code file name" and on PC it shows as "Sandisk SD Card" again, looking in TWRP it stays as "/external_sd" on both LP and MM with no such "storage" folder existing.

So my idea is that it's the way Android reads it and that the "storage" folder may be virtual so folders inside can't be renamed.

I gave up and have been just dealing with it, Poweramp lost Recently Added music list but of well.

I think this is simply a MM issue sense they did revise the SD Card support system, I bet regular users are seeing the same issue but most users don't put music or many file associations in a External SD Card so nothing ever messes up for them.

The thing that's even more sad is if Google fixes this to be corrected, it will only cause the issue yet again and your file associations will be wrong until you remap again.

For me only Poweramp is the true issue, Emulators(Classic Video Games) just set up the new folder no big deal, but Poweramp just wipes everything and starts fresh :/

Bro please read the OP carefully and check whether you see all the requirements for installing RUU or flashing zip file or not, because there are a lot of things that may cause such bootloop or stuck in htc logo.

Nevertheless, If you have any question feel free to ask by giving proper information mate.

Is there a fix for having to choose carrier after every reboot meanwhile? Or is it still necessary to flash firmware again (which means having s-off which I am not)

[One (M8) Android Development] adheesio:
Thanks for answer ! I have set that that (and phone is set to priority mode), and needed contacts are starred, but nevertheless phone does not ring when starred contact calls. Have you or anybody else tried that feature ? Thanks !
[One (M8) Android Development] i'mrunningoutofusernames:
I can't think of anything other than setting priority mode and not alarms only mode when turning do not disturb on. Sorry.

If you have a home phone try starring that number and trying different settings.
[One (M8) Android Development] adheesio:
Thanks again. Phone has been set to priority mode, calls from starred contacts are allowed in settings, certain contacts are starred etc. Everything should be ok, but for some reason calls from starred contacts stay still silent. I have tested this by starring my other phone number but no way to get starred contacts ring. Would be highly appreciated if someone could test this also ? Thanks in advance !
[One (M8) Android Development] i'mrunningoutofusernames:
I just tested it myself and it worked

Maybe it has something to do with your country code? I tried with my home number and didn't have the country code before the main number

EDIT: i tested it with screen off if that makes a difference

EDIT 2: It does make a difference lol. There's no sound when screen is on but there is sound when screen is off. Don't know if that's how it is intended to work or a bug

EDIT 3: Oh great, now i have sound even when screen is on.
[One (M8) Android Development] Skyh:
Hey, sorry for the slow response.

That's odd. As far as I know I didn't do anything special, I used Root Explorer to mount system as R/W and then moved the file onto my SD card. It didn't come back for me after I rebooted, so I'm not sure why it would come back for you.. There are other things in my system partition that would get reverted back if I changed them, but that file wasn't one of them. I wouldn't expect that to be due to MusicFX and whatnot, but I don't actually know. So if you installed V4A through some other means, perhaps it's worthwhile to try flashing the zip file (I think it's called Lolliviper or something?) from the post I linked to in my original post. When you flash that zip it runs scripts to remove MusicFx, AudioFx, DSPManager and a couple other things, so perhaps when that stuff is gone, the system doesn't try to restore htc_audio_effects.conf. This is just a wild theory, though, so take it with a grain of salt, YMMV (your miles may vary), etc.

Edit: Just to make things easier, here's the link again:

http://xdaforums.com/android/software/app-material-viper4android-2-3-4-0u-t3190352

On the first post of that thread, there are links to download either the APK version, or the ZIP version. Download the ZIP, and flash that using TWRP. Actual instructions found on that post.

[One (M8) Android Development] Venomenon:
Thanks, I managed to get it to work by following the steps in the thread you linked. I don't know where I went wrong so I started over

Flashed the following:

ROM (again)

ElementalX kernel

wp_mod package

V4A package

-

Installed the drivers via V4A

Removed the htc_audio_policy.conf

Set Selinux permissive (setenforce 0 via shell)

And it actually worked! So thanks again! :)

network and battery drain problems

Hey guys,

i am having troubles since i dirty flashed the new 6.0 rom over latest 5.1 , together with the new firmware.

1. When connected to a wifi, after a while (30-60 minutes) the connection doesn't work anymore, or i am disconnected from the wifi and i can't reconnect to it.

Enabling and disabling airplane mode temporarily fixes the issue, and the phone immediatly connects to the wifi. Until the next event.

2. While on a call, it happened a couple times that it was dropped and the phone suddenly showed 0 signal for a couple seconds, then goes back to full signal.

Exactly at the same time the connection dropped, the bluetooth service crashes and gets restarted.

3. High battery drain. Hard to troubleshoot since wakelock detector isn't working in 6.0 and betterbatterystats doesn't give enough detail. i see powermanagerservice wakelocks

Do you think these behaviours can be caused by the dirty flash? I've never seen such stuff all at once in almost 4 years of phone moddings.

Does anyone else have similar issues?

Thanks in advance.
