Updating

I'm on Viper 18.0 and I want to update to the latest version but before I do that I want to make sure I'm doing everything right so I don't mess up my phone. First off I'm not S-off. From what I've been reading it's suggested that I bee on the latest Firmware to avoid long boot times. When I boot into my bootloader to check my firmware it doesn't say it. Where it says OS its blank. Is there another way to check which Firmware I have? Also can I obtain S-Off if possible? If so how do I go about doing it the easiest way? Also should T-Mobile be updating to the latest firmware soon? Because I'm ok with waiting for them to update to the latest Firmware as long as it doesn't take forever. I don't want to fall that far behind
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] j to the 4n:
thats a bug with the recovery not showing the OS version I think...

I doubt you are on last firmware, when you don't know your firmware version.

Theres no tmobile 4.4.3 rom with firmware out yet...so you need s-off and go supercid to flash the firmware manually.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] shadyraver:
Thanks J. Yeah I don't think I'm on the latest Firmware either. I might just wait for T-mobile to update their Firmware.

Tmobile ota 4.4.3 is rolling out!!!!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] thewierdone:
I'm wondering the same. I know the 4.4.3 OTA rolled out today but I don't know how to go about flashing the ruu or update. I don't know wich one.

Not Able To Update

Finally the update I've been waiting for and for some reason I can't download it. I went into settings, about, software updates and hit check now and I just get the message "There are no updates for your phone" Any Ideas?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Gravy Train:
Good questions-- is there a way to apply the updated 4.4.3 base and firmware or will we need to wait for someone to release them individually?

I'm coming over from ViperOne on a M7 and new to the M8. Before I take the OTA update, should I try to root and S-OFF first? I'm more in fear of losing the ability to go S-OFF in the future if this latest firmware proves incompatible with the existing tools.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] locoface:
Well as of now you can't S-Off with firewater got my m8 last week and couldn't so had to use Sunshine costs $25 but well worth it. From what I know this is the only way to S-Off.

ViperOneM8 2.2.0 (August 19)

ADDED full T-Mobile carrier support

FIXED T-Mobile WIFI calling

FIXED Locked IPV4/6 Settings

FIXED AOSP incoming call workaround not working

You can install the OTA via Settings->About: Software Update.

Fullroms and the OTA as zip to download will be available later that day...or tomorrow at
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Gravy Train:
Thanks, I was afraid Sunshine wasn't compatible with the latest firmware but I took the plunge, got the 2.22.531.5 update OTA, grabbed Sunshine and still got root + S-OFF. That was the fastest root + S-OFF method I've ever used over the past four HTC devices I've owned!

Next question, and this might sound naive, but ViperOne M8 2.2.0 is based on 2.22.401.5-- is it completely overwriting my newer base or will I retain the HTC updates? I'll stick with my M7 if a newer ViperOne release is on the way and incorporates the latest base.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] locoface:
You can still run Viper on our base. The only way you will ever lose the newer base is if you flash 2.22.401.5 on RUU.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] JSIN3L33T:
Three things that I have wanted and I'm sure others would also are:

1. Phone settings for Delivery Options (Sent & Received). When you have report delivery options turned on there is NO way to have the reports happen without a popup (aka notification). I have found the work around, but it isn't built into the ROM as of yet. Think of it kind of like how a iphone works in delivery reporting (adds functionality for those wishing to know if someone actually did received a text or mms WITHOUT the popup :D

My config:

SMS notifications turned OFF in HTC SMS settings

SMS Delivery Reports turned ON in HTC SMS settings

SMS notifications turned ON in SMS Popup

Thanks to CitizenLee XDA :)

2. Call Recorder (Skvalex - Google Play Market Latest Edition is only one that works) in rom without a always running notification (aka hidden) Everything works but you have to have the always running notification for the process). There's no way to keep the program in the background as a un-killable process while hidden. Possibly a way to choose unkillable processes in Venom Tweaker in the future??

3. Modified Gallery (more options to turn things on and off and/or different styles or layouts)

DEV's Thanks you so much for an awesome ROM Broski's :victory::highfive:

Cant install ROM

Can someone please enlighten me what I am doing wrong?

I have a rooted T-Mobile HTC One M8, with TWRP latest version installed, boot loader unlocked, root access granted, dev debugging on.

I can't install this ROM at all (also tried the CM11), not even a Gapps. Even busy box fails.

I get a failed message message every time, with:

I do have S-ON (could be the issue?) and I have a Tampered / Unlocked in the boot loader.

I have a MAC, if someone would need that information as well.

It says:

I had the same problem and I formatted the phone's internal memory through TWRP and it installed and booted up in MINUTES. Backup anything that you have on the phone you need to salvage first, then basically wipe the internal memory completely of ANY ROM, (stock or not) to the point where if you reboot when you boot up you are just stuck at the startup boot screen. Once you have done that, put the Venom ROM's .zip in either the root directory of the internal memory or on the SD card, after that boot back into TWRP and then install it as you normally have been. I also unchecked that option of checking the .zip file as I found it was causing errors also on installing other .zip files such as the Boot Animations etc.

If you need help with doing this PM me.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] emanko111:
Been there actually today. Freaked out a little. TWRP doesn't work well for me at all, it won't install anything. CWM won't read my external SD card.

I had to side load CM11, as that is the only ROM that can be installed. I would rather go to Viper ROM and install a launcher. It could be that I have a late release model (?) and I was not able to get S off. So for now, I am fricken stuck. I would love to Skype or PM if possible please. TWRP didn't even restore one of my backups. Also, I have a lock now on the bottom of the HTC logo screen at boot up. Don't know what's that about.

And yes, I am on T-Mobile.

I suppose it's worth verifying, but I recently updated HTC Lock Screen from the Google Play framework. Since then, I've lost all of the lock screen mods from Venom Tweaks-- none of them work any longer.

Search for "firmware flashing without panic attacks". I'm guessing you're on T-Mobile, so find the zip for tmo. The latest in that thread matches my screenshot. It will replace you're recovery with twrp. Either replace it in the .zip or install it again afterward.

I'd just grab Captain_Throwback's TWRP 2.8.0.4 and replace the recovery.img in the firmware .zip.

From all I've searched on the forums here at xda... There is no way to bypass the native tether so T-Mobile won't find out.

On my Xperia Z1s all you had to do was an sql edit to bypass it. I tried to see if you could do it on the M8 but the line you need to make the edit on isn't present on the M8. I think I heard someone say you can bypass it on CM11 though.

Have somebody been able to use Softcard(Isis-tmobile) with Viper? I installed Xposed, RootCloack, added app to RootCloack list. The app opens fine, but credit card machines won't read my phone in most places, only works at a few McDonalds, but Softcard works just fine on Stock with root. I also tried the Isis patch from one of the forums, and didn't work either. You get a dollar back on transactions over a dollar when you use it, so it's like getting free snacks or sodas at school.

DeadHeartsBeat:

That is only dependent on your data plan and if you have any limits on your plan. They aren't stupid, they can measure your data usage regardless of any ROM you load or Rooting you do. There is no way that can happen unless you have a Grandfathered Unlimited Data Plan (like I do) and only because I've had TMOUS for 10+ years now. It just so happened that LTE was included in the plan. Some carriers can monitor your LTE usage separately from your 3.5G plan.

HotSpot on T-Mobile (TMOUS)

Hi Everyone:

This is a question specifically for T-Mobile USA users or any of our ROM GODS that might have an idea:

I came from an HTC Sensation 4G on T-mobile with unlimited data, and was running ViperS 5.2.1 and never had any issues with HotSpot. When I rooted my M8 and installed ViperOneM8 2.5.0 and I activate the HotSpot, I am getting a T-Mobile page saying I need to add "Smartphone Mobile HotSpot". I am on an unlimited 4G-LTE plan as well.

Is it possible that they did not put any limits on my HotSpot when I was using my Sensation 4G because it was plain 4G (3.5G) and NOT LTE? Are there any other users that came from the Sensation 4G with unlimited data that have experienced this?

If anyone has any light to shed on this, I would be very grateful!

Thanks to everyone!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jergutierrez:
I'm on the Simple Choice plan with 2gb of extra data. (3gb total) I came from a Sensation with Viper 5.2.1 but I don't have unlimited data.

I used to use the hotspot on the Sensation also and never had any problems.

I was told when I signed up that I can use up to my full amount of data for mobile hotspot. That is for High Speed (4g OR LTE)

I don't have any problems when I use it for my tablet or laptop. I only use it to check emails or a couple of webpages that don't show well on the phone.

It shows as LTE when I'm in an area that has it (outside) and it jumps down to 4g when I'm not (in buildings).

I work in Huntington Beach and in my office, it's constantly jumping from 4g to LTE and back, with or without hotspot.

Thanks for the reply dude.

So you are not getting any Tmobile page after you connect a device to the M8's HotSpot and open a web browser page at all?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jergutierrez:
No pop up announcements or any T-Mobile notifications saying that I need to set up mobile hotspot.

I'm writing this on my laptop that's connected to my mobile hotspot.

Everything is working as normal, in fact I'm getting LTE here in Whittier with mobile hotspot.

Viper 2.5.0 is perfect, fast, stable.

My only problem is with Wifi calling. When I connect, I can receive and make calls, BUT I can't receive any text messages. I can send them though.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] mariosaraylian:
That's odd. I have never had issues with RX/TX of SMS's over WIFI calling at all. I do know that there is a tweak/mod in Venom Tweaks that makes you have to restart the M8 in order to regain access to WIFI calling, but I can't remember which tweak/mod it is exactly (there are SO many!! :).

Are you running the latest FW and all that jazz on your M8?

I am not sure if I should call Tmobile and make a stink about this or not since I have "unlimited" data, why should I have to subscribe to the stupid Mobile HotSpot feature they have for $20 more....
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] jergutierrez:
i'm on the latest FW. I did Sneakyghosts FUU no wipe Tmo FW. You don't remember that tweak/mod in the Venom tweaks?

You should try to flash another ROM, maybe something closer to stock and see if it still shows a notification on the Hotspot.

Or have you tried reinserting the SIM card?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Jhebi:
