Hi everyone, great rom.....I really like this 5.0 version. I went from a AT&T HTC One (M8) locked to GPE 4.4.4 following of the procedures. GraffixNYC installation of 5.0.1 was very using adb and fastboot, etc. Also glad to have full acesss to the internal and external memory thru USB. All my apps were transferred over thru Google Play. So far no major errors. (Great job guys).

Have anyone experience no audio thru the headsets? When I play music, using any music app, music is played through the speakers and not thru the headsets when connected. I've search for this audio issue but nothing. (Any ideas on a solution?) Would hate to go back to GPE 4.4.4 when this is a superior rom.
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
sry, this is something on your phones end, it works as it should here :) doesn't really help you, but maybe there's dirt in your headphone jack or the case you're using (when you use one) is preventing the headset to be fully plugged in or ....
[One (M8) Android Development] exist2resist:
Couldn't tell you, hour one, as soon as i got the device i went to GPe. Didn't want the sense(nonsense) on my phone. Having said this, i find the WiFi is better than my Xperia Z1.
[One (M8) Android Development] gevans01:
No audio in headset.....

thank you for responding and that was my first thought. So I reinstalled my GPE 4.4.4 backup and got my audio back through the headset and speaker. below is my system detail after flashing this rom. I hope this helps point me in the right direction. Thanks

remove personal data ;)

do you wipe between installs? at least factory reset (data w/o internal storage and cache)?
[One (M8) Android Development] gevans01:
After so many flashes and other sequences , I thought I did that, but I will try again....thanks. Will let you know.
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
with removal i meant serial and imei in your post before my last post :D
[One (M8) Android Development] gevans01:
Thank you for the feedback on personal data. (I appreciated it) :cool:

So I've did a factory reset and start flashing the "Stock Google Play Edition Rom LXR22C.H5" rom again.

Since I'm Rooted, this is the one I've flash: RUU-HTC_One_M8_GPE_5.0.1-3.11.1700.5_rooted

I've followed the instruction on #2031. Everything else work.... again only plugging in the headset into the jack, does switch music from speakers to headset.

As mentioned before I've upgrade my Stock AT&T HTC One (M8) to GPE 4.4.2 and automatically received all the updates OTA to get to 4.4.4 (Audio was working thru headset and/or speakers with no problems)

The only problem with 4.4.4 is that you don't have access to SD storage. (though I found a patch to update in the system, but haven't tried it)

I like the speed, simplicity of 5.0.1. That is why I keep on trying.

Also I tried changing the Kernel - using skydragon kernel (still same problem with audio). But when I used the kernel for 4.4.4 of GPE, the booting hung at HTC logo before it showed the dead android.

So I'm lost for option other than using an app to manual switch to headset from speaker....(bummer)

Anyway new ideas to proceed are appreciated.
[One (M8) Android Development] Deadeye*:
Can someone clarify this for me please, if i want to get 5.0.1 whit OTA updates i have to flash "Build: 5.0.1 OTA Update Zip" and not "5.0.1 Stock Rooted GPE RUU" ?

Or OTA.zip is just like an update to who has 5.0.0?
[One (M8) Android Development] exist2resist:
The ota is the over the air update from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1.

The RUU is the full OS if you're going from sense to GPe.

[MENTION=856715]gevans01[/MENTION] let's continue in the q&a thread ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] gevans01:
ok...will do....thanks,
[One (M8) Android Development] technogeek82:
Ok it is clear that the firmware provided in the thread is for Europe MID and that is why I can not flash it. anyone know where I can get the T-Mobile USA variant of the firmware?
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
in t-mobile section, maybe.
[One (M8) Android Development] Thomasfoolery:
so my phone is bricked. can't get out of this ruu mode with hazards in the corner... can't flash this damn gpe ruu i get this error saying platform failure.... tried changing my mid to match what it needs to be but get an error there too. tried an executable ruu and it won't work. any ideas anyone please
[One (M8) Android Development] duskdiyebiri:
I converted my HTC One M8 GSM into a complete GPE Lollipop. I want to wipe cache but I can't get to recovery mod properly.

My device is stucked in logo with exclamation android. When I hold down volume up and power button menu doesn't appear

How can I get to wipe cache option on recovery?
[One (M8) Android Development] pagoweb:
hold power + vol. up for few seconds while in te screen with the red exclamation mark and you'll get menu.
[One (M8) Android Development] jball:
Take a pic of the screen and show us what you described
[One (M8) Android Development] Thomasfoolery:
Not necessary i just had to successfully flash the ruu. Turns out i wasusing an ruu that didn't match my modelid which is odd because i could swear i followed the same link but this one does. All good now. The other was looking for pn***** but i have 06b or something like that.... Sorry my memory for fine details suxs
[One (M8) Android Development] Veseliq:
Hey there,

I converted my T-Mobile HTC M8 to GPE using the rooted RUU 5.0.1 from this thread. I want to get OTA updates in the future but I'm not sure if the Stock Recovery from http://www.graffixnyc.com/m8.php is the one I should flash to finish the process. Those are my vars after flashing 5.0.1:
[One (M8) Android Development] svassh:
I think if you used the RUU you now have the stock recovery and will get OTA as long as CID is set to GOOGL001.
[One (M8) Android Development] Veseliq:
Thank you!!! Finally a no-hate answer to a simple question. I didn't realise that the RUU actually also overwrites the custom recovery...
[One (M8) Android Development] 3lMghraby:
is there a way to flash the system only without wiping data for ota
[One (M8) Android Development] Bobbi lim:
No, not that I know off :p

Get a nexus and their factory images allow you to do that ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
you can try grabbing system.img only from the ruu zip and flash it via standard fastboot (not in ruu fastboot mode). should work, imo.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
Out of curiosity, has anyone gotten the Android L OTA using this RUU? I was on Sense over the weekend so to come back I tried the 4.4.3 RUU, I got the 4.4.4 OTA but then nothing and I have the 17000 MID, GOOGL001 CID so everything should work.

I know I can RUU 5.0.1 directly but I was curious to hear about others.
[One (M8) Android Development] AttachedSilver:
I flashed the 4.4.4 RUU and got the OTA for 5.0.1
[One (M8) Android Development] tonyrance:
I agree, I tried the update this way with no issues at all.
[One (M8) Android Development] 3lMghraby:
do you mean booting to bootloader and flash it as an ordinary img

fastboot flash system system.img
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
yep :)
[One (M8) Android Development] w0tha:
Just want to confirm that having a modelid of 0P6B1100 that I will be right to flash this RUU? I gather from the original post that it will be considering you have 0P6B**** up there but just don't want a paperweight. :)
[One (M8) Android Development] nuts77:
Hi everyone,

just a simple question : I am S-off, but I need to keep my bootloader locked (using corporate e-mail, which checks device security, root and unlocked bootloader forbidden...). Is it safe to flash the RUU from fastboot with bootloader locked, or do I have to unlock it, and relock it once it's done (which wouldnt be quite convenient) ?

Can recovery be flashed with a locked bootloader, as long as the device is S-off ?

thanks!
[One (M8) Android Development] seadersn:
do the secure way and flash ruu and your desired recovery, then lock your m8. flashing recovery with locked bootloader isn't possible, at least not via fastboot. via custom firmware 0p6bimg.zip and s-off it is possible ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] w0tha:
Anyone able to help out? Trying to get setup for CM12 nightlies.
[One (M8) Android Development] manup456:
You don't need to do this to flash cm12
[One (M8) Android Development] w0tha:
Yeah I know that much. It's that my HBoot is 3.16 and I haven't been able to find anything that resembles a coherent instruction line for a Telstra M8, so figured I would just do a GPE conversion seeing as I hate Sense to get the updated Firmware onto my device.
[One (M8) Android Development] clay21:
Yes all good.
[One (M8) Android Development] manup456:
Well you can convert to GPE if your s-off and go back and forth between cm12 and GPE since you don't like sense. But either way on sense or GPE all you need is a custom recovery and I recommend twrp.

That's all I'll say in this thread since it really does not belong in this thread, but if you have more questions p.m me.
[One (M8) Android Development] w0tha:
Thanks. I've been flashing for a while now, it's just this HBoot and Firmware flashing stuff has me spooked is all. I'm S-OFF since day dot so that's not an issue. Just wanted to make sure my phone is compatible with this conversion, and if you say it is then i'll give it a whirl and report back.
[One (M8) Android Development] anandlal:
What software do your company use for these security checks? My company uses MobileIron and I have no problem using an unblocked boot loader. As long as I use the non-rooted version of this ROM I have no issues.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
You could look into using something else for your emails like Touchdown, Nine or the outlook web access app. None of those have the security checks.
[One (M8) Android Development] kaishi00:
I've got a fairly off topic question. Here's the situation, I switched over from AT&T to T-Mobile, so I've got an AT&T M8. Then I converted to GPE using this RUU, should I try to use TMobile radios? I've noticed I'm getting some pretty terrible service.
[One (M8) Android Development] liam10000:
Using the T-Mobile RUU would be your best option.
[One (M8) Android Development] kaishi00:
I don't want a sense rom though, can't I just flash t mobile radio?
[One (M8) Android Development] scoot0073:
I don't got a T-Mobile M8 but if I did I'd do the GPe conversion and flash a T-Mobile radio.
[One (M8) Android Development] w0tha:
Thanks dude. Just completed the conversion on my phone now and it's working perfectly.

To anyone with a Telstra HTC One (M8) you can use this conversion on your phone. Please double check the modelid first though as I have one of the original M8's and it may changed since then but I couldn't tell you.
[One (M8) Android Development] rasstar:
Thanks, this worked perfect on my T-Mobile Htc One but google play looks awful so I am going back to Sense.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nekromantik:
Any way to convert without wiping internal storage?
[One (M8) Android Development] Tom Fagerland:
I broke it.

I uninstalled SuperSU in order to install Superuser instead, since Titanium Backup wasn't able to get root.

How do I reroot?
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
Google the flashable version of SuperSU, download and flash away.

[One (M8) Android Development] PiTT:
I've been searching every where with no luck. So I'm running everything pretty much fine and installed the Sense Camera, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to fix the Image Preview on the lower right of the camera app. It's just blank, if I press it I want it to open in a gallery app like QuickPic. Can anyone help?
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Please ask in Q&A. This thread is for supporting flashing the ruu.. It's not to support the sense camera image preview so it has nothing to do with this topic and is a general discussion topic.
[One (M8) Android Development] PiTT:
You'd think being a long time member I'd know where to ask certain things, it's what happens when you get old and your brain doesn't function anymore ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] Pandavieux:
Hello

I Want to convert my Htc on GPE edition, but for the futur OTA i have to change my CID on GOOGL001 ? or supercid 1111111 is fine ?

Hi

I'm not an experienced flasher (Haha).

However, can you just give me a little confidence in what i should do to convert to GPE.

I am S-off

Unlocked

Currently with latest sense firmware and ARHD rom.

I want to go full lollipop but my main question is do i need to flash the firmware then the lolipop rom?
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
First up this is a thread for the conversion RUU, not GPE ROMS.

If you use this RUU, you don't need to worry about firmware, this will put everything all at once and wipe internal storage.

Do know the difference between an RUU and a ROM though... ROM you'll need the firmware, RUU includes everything but also wipes internal storage (not SD card).
[One (M8) Android Development] Pandavieux:
I confirmed :)
[One (M8) Android Development] scoot0073:
Just follow the OP instructions on first page and run the RUU and you will reach you're final destination
[One (M8) Android Development] jjdp:
I have tried the gpe ROM and I like it but am having firmware issues. I would like to know that if I do a full conversion will I still get LTE in the UK. I have the unlocked international edition with the did HTC_001. Does changing the radio alter the bands that the phone can use?
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
I think it does. You'd need a flashable version of the radio that works best in your region. This is not related to the RUU though so if you want to pursue this, I recommend you ask in the Q&A forums.
[One (M8) Android Development] Secretwar1:
Just got home I'm giving it a try as well
[One (M8) Android Development] nugzo:
suspense... :fingers-crossed: i'm confident. :victory:

If it works, did it delete your internal SD card?
[One (M8) Android Development] Secretwar1:
Currently reflashing the CWM recovery since I havent had it since the conversion, and waiting for the stock nandroid to download :)

BTW after flashing the hboot file and rebooting i got a "Enter password to decrypt storage screen" or something like that, rebooting to bootloader and factory resetting fixed this issue but yeah I'd recomend having everything backed up first or you may be screwed
[One (M8) Android Development] nugzo:
when you say CWM you're referring to Philz version right? what a great recovery. being able to install and backup from external SD is awesome!

---------- Post added at 03:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------

i remember seeing that too. did it delete your internal SD? did it boot to GPE rom after factory reset? or just to recovery
[One (M8) Android Development] Secretwar1:
Yeah just waiting for the stock nandroid to download and Ill be ready to go, 2 hours remaining >:( im gonna try to find a faster download just to see if it works
[One (M8) Android Development] housry23:
Didn't work for me. I had to reflash the RUU.

And yes it did wipe my internal sdcard.
[One (M8) Android Development] Secretwar1:
yes and yes

---------- Post added at 03:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ----------

Didn't work on my end either, installed a sense rom, but i hangs on the boot screen then kick you back to recovery. RUU'd back to gpe :(
[One (M8) Android Development] nugzo:
Any sense custom rom will do :)

Noooooo. Well thanks for trying. waiting on one more nay before i accept failure. Strange that i was getting the exact same error as everyone else even though i didnt install the entire conversion. did you install the splash too or just bootloader?

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

Thanks. i'll mark the original post as failed.
[One (M8) Android Development] housry23:
I installed the splash too. I think the reason you were able to go back is because you never installed the gpe system. It was worth a try, but at this point I think we are waiting on htc to release an ruu.exe.
[One (M8) Android Development] djkinetic:
Not strange because you still have all the other stock sense partitions, including the system one, which is much smaller on the GPE...
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Sucks it didn't work.. Made it to Minneapolis now I'm waiting for my connecting flight to Denver
[One (M8) Android Development] grentuu:
Can I just confirm now that people have had this for a few days. Providing you aren't too bothered about going back to sense anytime soon, this rom will be identical to a Google Play Edition phone with nothing missing and everything working?

I have read the complete thread but just want to make sure. This also includes whether it is LTE compatible for the UK? (Is it advisable to remove the radio)

My M8 is unlocked/rooted/S-Off/Super CID

Thank you in anticipation. (Donation if all is good)
[One (M8) Android Development] housry23:
Yes this is just like Google Play Edition with nothing missing and everything works. I am in the US, but AFAIK UK users have been removing the radio before flashing. You may want to wait for a UK user to verify.
[One (M8) Android Development] grentuu:
Thank you.

Digitaldazz has confirmed earlier in the thread that it works if you remove the radio. Fortunately he is on the same network as me and is still able to get LTE :)

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 PM ----------

STUNNING.

Will have a play over the weekend.

Donation coming next week :)
[One (M8) Android Development] grentuu:
You might want to run the antutu benchmark on this :)

It just hammered the Note 3 !
[One (M8) Android Development] Clownzer:
Has anyone noticed if flashing this on the TMO edition if all of the radios are working?

On another note is there a piece of software or diagnostics that will show you what radios are installed and working?

Thanks
[One (M8) Android Development] housry23:
This will work on the T-Mobile version with no issues. This is the Google play edition. It basically turns your phone into a Google play edition. It supports at&t and T-Mobile lte as well as hspa and aws for T-Mobile. It's only CDMA and international version that won't work (although there's a workaround for international radios).
[One (M8) Android Development] jdmadonna:
Successful Unlocking???

Mod... Please delete this post, I was directed where I need to go.
[One (M8) Android Development] housry23:
Mine is Dev edition so it doesn't need unlocked, but this was very easy to find. I don't understand why people don't use the search function. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708567

[One (M8) Android Development] jjdp:
So changing the radio changes the bands available. And will this effect ota? But also which method of installation out of the 2 in the op would you recommend?
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
I have never used the method where you put the file on the SD card but the end result should be the same. I like the adb version because that's the one I'm comfortable with and I know what to do if something goes wrong, the other method doesn't require a computer so it has it's advantages.
[One (M8) Android Development] jjdp:
Do you have to change both the cid and mid to get ota updates?
[One (M8) Android Development] liam10000:
You can leave supercid (11111111) if you want, but you have to have a compatible mid.
[One (M8) Android Development] jjdp:
Ah okay thanks. Is it possible to change your mid to match a compatible one?

[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Well guys.. My m8 has been sold in preparation for the m9 Hehe.. So now that I do not have the device anymore I will have to count on the more experienced users of the thread to help me pull what I need to update the RUU when the ota drops. So.. When ota's drop and of you want to help me help the community then pm me and we will get it going :)

Of course like with the m7 I will continue to monitor the thread and will chime in when need be.
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
Thank you for all you did!
[One (M8) Android Development] sean.trinidade:
I had an unbranded WWE version (which I picked up on the launch day) and used Firewater to S-OFF mine, so not sure about Sunshine. From what I've heard/read, it should work for any M8.

In terms of signal quality, haven't noticed any difference but you could always flash an o2 specific radio onto the device if needed.
[One (M8) Android Development] jjdp:
I've got the unlocked international edition cid HTC_001. So should all work if not hopefully only for a few weeks
[One (M8) Android Development] Acill:
ACK!! You cant get an M9 before me!!! I am looking forward to it being shown in March. I hope it is all we expect it will be too.

It would be fantastic if we can do an s-off and conversion right away. I got a real GPE M8 last time at release and dont think I want to do it again. With AT&T doing the next plans and your conversions its a better deal for me. That and the conversion I just did last night for a co-worker on his ATT model is sweet looking in the gun metal. MUCH nicer than my real one in silver.
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
There might not be a conversation for the m9. I thought I had read on Android Central they were discontinuing the GPE program. :-\
[One (M8) Android Development] Nic2112:
It's probably hard for a company like HTC to offer GPE, but also make everything on the phone work as good as Sense. Audio quality and the camera certainly took a huge downgrade for GPE. Now I have a good camera so I don't take a lot of pictures with the phone but still, why pay top dollar for a great phone if the software can't take advantage of it.
[One (M8) Android Development] jjdp:
I have just done the conversion but I didn't change my mid is this needed for ota updates? my mid is 0P6B10000

Everything seems to be working however. Including LTE on o2 UK
