Hey guys, mrjaydee will be working on 5.0.1 as soon as he can. I too can't wait until sinless gets updated. I may work on my own version of gpe as time allows. I did go ahead and do the gpe conversion and flashed the stock ota. All I can say is wow. Big performance difference in the leak (or what ever it was) and the official. On first boot I did notice it was a little laggy and the radio was a little slow to connect. But after a few minutes it all worked out.

I also have noticed that I can't delete anything on my external SD card. I thought google was supposed to fix that in 5.0 but hey it is what it is. I'm sure someone some where is working on a fix.
[One (M8) Android Development] timeline62x:
I am still running an old 4.4.4 version of Sinless because I can't get s-off. Does this OTA mean I will be able to flash Lollipop ROMs without all the horrible bugs of unmatching firmware? (If I try to flash a 5.0 ROM right now, I have all sorts of issues with wifi and other stuff)
[One (M8) Android Development] benbailey84:
I believe one of the requirements is flashing firmware. If you don't have soff then I don't believe you can flash any firmware other than your carriers firmware. I'm sure someone with a little more knowledge will be able to chime in.

On the soff, I would pay the $25 for sunshine. I was lucky enough to gain soff with one of the free methods before any ota. I have always unlocked boot loader, gained soff (on my HTC devices), flashed recovery before I did anything to the phone.
[One (M8) Android Development] timeline62x:
I have actually tried the SunShine application on my phone. At first, I tried it on a GPe ROM, and it told me that I needed something closer to a stock ROM. Then, I flashed ARDHD (or whatever it's called), and I keep getting messages like my network connection has issues checking whether my phone can get s-off. Do you have any suggestions on what to do? I got my phone pretty late it terms of when it came out, so I did not have a chance to use firewater. Also, will there be a free way to get s-off in the future or will Sunshine be the only way?
[One (M8) Android Development] benbailey84:
You probably need to flash a stock ROM. Untouched

As far as a free method, I doubt it. These guys that came up with it spent countless hours and not to mention the hard bricked devices from achieving soff for people like you and me.

Am I happy about them charging? No.

Do I blame them? Not at all.

As far as the errors with the ROM. I would go to that thread and ask questions there. Read the op, make sure it doesn't require an updated firmware. Also revisit the sunshine forum.

Try this ROM. http://forums.team-nocturnal.com/index.php?/topic/1685-[ROM]-[MAY-15]-NOCTURNAL-LIMITED-EDITION-v1.2 it is a stock sense ROM. Based off 1.58.

I think the ROM digital high has the HTC ir blaster option and venom audio can't wait for the 5.0.1 release tomorrow this is by far the best gpe rom
[One (M8) Android Development] revamper:

[One (M8) Android Development] majordj:
It don't work mate? I have the gpe newest firware and a clean flash of this ROM and it won't work after dling it from the play store I think ir blaster needs to be active? Or do I need sense firmware then flash this ROM? Try yours and see if it works I'm currently running this version of this ROM 4.1.0
[One (M8) Android Development] jxcorex28:
If you are having problems...check with wonders_never_cease's thread on stock sense ROMs, they are about as close to stock as you can get. Firewater s-off has been discontinued though, so sunshine is the only method to obtain s-off that I know of...Sunshine will be the only way. There was an article explaining the discontinuation of firewater,and one of the reasons had to do with users assuming that the developers of the exploit was trying to push users to buy the only known method to s-off...Unless someone else creates another method sunshine will remain the only option

[One (M8) Android Development] Zorachus:
I gave my Wife my One M8, latest ROM she's running is like from early October, I think Sinless version 3.6.2 which was Kit Kat based.

So what do I need to do to her phone, to get the official GPE Lollipop build ? Is it as easy as my OnePlus One, flashing a new ROM + GAPPS + SuperSU and all good ? With my 1+1, I can go back and forth between Kit Kat and Lollipop ROM's with ease.
[One (M8) Android Development] holmes901:
Just make sure that the firmware is updated to the latest download the ROM and then install through recovery. From there your good to go.
[One (M8) Android Development] Zorachus:
Thanks, but I've never updated firmware before. Is that just like a new modem / radio update ? Flash the correct one for your carrier in Recovery and all good ? Isn't there a thread somewhere for the One M8, on how to flash to the latest firmware ? I thought some guy made a thread who's on ATT like me, that had the specific newest files to flash ?
[One (M8) Android Development] holmes901:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2824048

This should help you in firmware flashing to get to the latest for the new Roms.

I used this method myself and all wen smooth.
[One (M8) Android Development] holmes901:
Working good so far. Minus the WiFi bug I am getting a strong performance on the phone from the ROM. Been waiting for a pure gpe and I have my ROM/DD. Thanks.
[One (M8) Android Development] mrjaydee82:
May wanna update your fw.... I have no WiFi issues...my m8 only works on WiFi now since I have a new phone
[One (M8) Android Development] Zorachus:
My Wife's phone is still on an older version of this ROM, 3.6.2 from October.

But this has been popping up recently in the Notification tray. I assume would be very very bad to actually download ?
[One (M8) Android Development] tele_jas:
Yeah, it won't flash......You probably have a custom recovery (TWRP/CWM/Philz) installed, this requires the stock Google/HTC recovery. If it did try to flash, it would screw stuff up ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] Zorachus:
Thought so, thanks. How can I get rid of that from popping up ?

I am little worried trying to change her phone around to be ready for the Lollipop GPE ROM. Sucks that HTC requires all this crazy Firmware updates and CID #'s, etc... :confused: Nice thing about my OnePlus One and Nexus 5, none of that to worry about, can go back and forth between Kit Kat or Lollipop ROM's with ease, just flash away.

Would you be able to integrate something like this native tethering hack into the ROM?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2715450
[One (M8) Android Development] mrjaydee82:
Honestly probably not. I went through hell for the note 3 to pull it off and it only worked for some. My guess it would be the same here...as T-Mobile can technically still tell if you're tethering unless you're changing your user agent stuff.. KitKat has released specific security flags pertaining to this to help carriers tell if it's being tethered...and T-Mobile is the only carrier at the moment actually using it..well a few months ago it was only T-Mobile.. Dunno if other carriers are utilizing now or not.
[One (M8) Android Development] oRAirwolf:
Thanks again. I hardly use tethering, so it's not a huge deal. I just like having unlimited tethering available in case I need it for the unexpected.

[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
I just went ahead and used that FW and everything went well...no worries :)

So what I did is :

Flashed CWM recovery. Not the newest version! You need this one : https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/m8/philz_touch_6.25.5-m8.img/

Start phone into recovery : do a complete wipe

Flashed firmware : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473397818

Flashed new Sinless Lollipop 5.0.1 rom.

Thanks MrJD :good: :highfive: Smooth as a baby's bottom!
[One (M8) Android Development] holmes901:
Well I know I am on the latest sense fw. So I take it when the phone goes into sleep mode the WiFi won't drop? I have noticed I get that when the phone sleeps. But the rest of the ROM is legit on point.

[MENTION=2401731]mrjd[/MENTION]. Just wanted to let you know that I still have wifi disconnect issues from time to time after phone went into sleep.

I have of course flashed the new Lollipop FW before flashing your rom. Also did a full complete wipe from within CWM recovery first. Came from your Sinless 3.7.1 rom.

Strange and just wanted to let you know. The rom otherwise is working perfectly!
[One (M8) Android Development] thebobmannh:
And just to clarify, flashing that firmware on a Sense-based phone will repartition everything and wipe my internal SD card, yes?
[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
Yup I think it will...as stated in that thread startpost. But I came from GPE rom so cannot be sure.
[One (M8) Android Development] zedmarcus:

[One (M8) Android Development] jophil2412:
Theres a Firmware somewhere in the sd thread which doesn't repartition your device since it uses the sense hboot and not the gpe one. It's working without a problem for me and i didn't lose any data.

Is this stock GPE without any UI changed? Why only 432mb in size compared to other GPE roms with 600mb+?

Aha! So apparently this is caused by the Guest user account. Solution is to select Guess user and from there go into the User account setting again and delete the Guest user account. It will default back to your supervisor account and now the option 'None' is again available for lock screen options. :good:

https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/ER-qorjx2ew

Hey, So the issue seems to be with the actual guest "session".

1- Go into your phone as the guest,

2- then go to user's panel from the quick settings

3- instead of choosing your main user account to switch back to, select "remove Guest"

4- problem solved.

[One (M8) Android Development] nseriessaga:
Im a bit confused about flashing the firmware.. Is this method allowing one to flash through recovery, rather than the hboot method? Im assuming the 1st step to install the recovery requires use of hboot method anyway? I am asking because im wondering if theres a way to complete this task without connecting my phone to a laptop
[One (M8) Android Development] daffie:
I'm not sure, maybe someone else can clarify for you. I always use ADB for flashing firmware and recovery.

[One (M8) Android Development] jophil2412:
You can flash a firmwar.zip file without using adb by renaming the file to 0P6BIMG.zip and pasting it to the root of your external SD card. Afterwards just reboot into hboot and confirm the update. Keep in mind that you need to be s-off to set a matching cid/ mid but that should be clear ;)
