Okay, I re-rooted last night and I was able to successfully flash the ROM. A ton of tweaks I need to start playing with. A couple small issues I noticed right away... some of the HTC widgets are not installed, specifically the horizontal calendar/agenda widget (I've used that since my days of owning the HTC Hero). Also, my phone kept rebooting every time I tried to run speedtest.net. I'll un-install it and re-install to see if that helps. The performance was sluggish and choppy for a while, but I remember from the days I was heavy into rooting that it can take a while for ROM's to settle in. So far this morning (flashed last night around midnight) it seems to be running very smoothly.

I rooted all my previous phones (all HTC), but I've had my M8 for about a year and a half and never rooted it. It worked great and there really was no need to root it. I must say though, it feels good to be back in the root game. I'll play around and report back any issues and praise.

Update: I had a thought that maybe I accidentally removed the HTC calendar during install, so I did a dirty re-flash of the ROM and voila! The agenda widget is there. Things are looking good.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] cirehawk:
Whenever I unlock the phone there is a faint clicking sound, almost like a camera shutter. Anyone know if there is a setting to turn that off? Also, a couple other quick questions/issues. I tried to turn off the status bar NFC icon in venom tweaks, but it never disappears. Other icons disappear when I disable them. Lastly, how do I enable auto rotate in the camera app (i.e rotate to landscape for a picture I took in landscape mode)?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] cirehawk:
I found what could be a show stopper for me. I can't run Android Pay. Well Android Pay runs, but when I try to add a card I get the following error... "Android Pay can't be used.... Google is unable to verify that your device or the software running on it is Android compatible". I don't know if this is specific to Viper Rom. I'll do a nandroid later and restore to stock MM to test.

Update: Found out the Android Pay issue is a root wide problem and not specific to this Rom (which I suspected). Found the fix (which is to temporarily turn root off in the SuperSU app, add your cards, then turn root back on), so back to playing with the tweaks on this Rom.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] faslane:
correct, this is true to almost all roms, my Note 5 did the same thing unfortunately the temp unroot will probably not work to keepo using Pay. It worked for a couple weeks on Note 5 using that trick but now won't at all because of Knox, so hopefully since HTC doesn't have Knox, it'll stick..yay!! +1

Fas
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] cirehawk:
Unfortunately, the fix didn't work on my M8. That's a pretty important feature for me, so for now I am unrooting. If a fix is ever found for Android Pay, I'll re-root and flash this ROM again.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] pokkerguy:
I updated to the latest version of viper and it is VERY nice! The first time I installed it, there was a drop down bar with icons for Venom Tweaks, Venom Hub, 4GLTE, Wifi, Blue Tooth, Power Saving, etc... I can't seem to enable that bar again.. Does anyone know where to find the bar to enable it again? I re-installed the rom and it doesn't show up. There must be a setting for that bar to show when you pull down the notification.

edit: Here are some pictures to give you guys a idea what I'm talking about:

So what it seems what I want are "Quick Settings" bar to show up on the pull down notification area.

I want it to show here:

Does anyone else use the Sense toolbox with Xposed tweak with this rom? Was wondering if anyone else has issues with battery power lasting less than a day. Battery drain seems to be significant with the tweaks of Sense Toolbox in effect on my M8 with the Viper rom installed. Would the only way to get around this be to not use Sense toolbox? Thanks guys. Really appreciate this rom for its ability to include Wifi Calling.

I just noticed that on this version 5.0.2 there isn't an option to put the 'signal' on the left side of the bar header. This is a bug right?! It was implemented in version 4.5.0 and now it's gone:confused:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] JSIN3L33T:
OK kool :) Just wanted to make sure, I got 6.0.1 running good after a ton or tweaking, but of course there are options etc. That feel almost native in the prior versions to 6.0.1; Viper 4.5.0 right up to and before 6.0.1 that make it easier to setup and just work.

ADB Authentication Problem

My problem has been solved. Please refer to this post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70350546&postcount=31910

----------------------------------------------------

I accidentally fat-finger posted the word ADB here when I meant to be performing a search. I could not find a way to delete the post. So although it's already explored territory, I feel I should at least put some clarification down:

Additional clarification: I don't have this older release of the ROM, I simply posted here unfortunately. The ROM I refer to here is "ViperOneM8 6.1.0 (20 July 2016)".

I am on T-Mobile with an HTC One (M8) that was current stock Marshmallow as of mid December 2016. HTC gradually notified us that various stock bloatware will no longer function, such as the web browser. That resulted in an awkward lock-screen that had a web icon that didn't work. Enough of their inconsideration to users, I was glad to begin pursuing a custom ROM.

This ViperOneM8 is perfect in every way. Except ADB doesn't authenticate. Makes app development frustrating. Other posts lead me to believe I'm out of luck on getting ADB to work correctly for my carrier and handset with this ROM. That's so mind-boggling considering how exceptional everything about this ROM is, actually.

So for anybody else who stumbles into my comment, I think this ROM is worth the inconvenience of this one feature that is critical for my own use.

And for any DEV out there, please steer me correct if I've misinterpreted what I've researched. If I can get ADB authentication to work, that would be great.

From ViperM8 5.0.2 ATT to Viper M8 TMobUs ...

Hi, I am currently running ViperM8 5.0.2 on my ATT M8.

Planning to switch the provider from ATT to TmobUS.

The phone is unlocked, also I think the ROM will be just fine with TM SIM.

But What I need to get is T mobile WiFi Calling which I believe exist on this version on Viper but I do not have it on my ROM at the moment.

How do I get it?

Should install ViperM8 5.0.2 over my current version and somewhere in Aroma (if that exist there) choose TMobile variant? Or there is a way to install WiFi calling zip separately and if yes where do I get it?

Thanks

Have you had any issues with this type of conversion?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] hawaiianboi:
Nope no problems at all so far. Now I'm not 100% sure if there are any differences coming from the GPe to Viper One instead of going from the T-Mobile version to Viper, but as far as I can tell everything is exactly the same.

Yup, that's the way you would want to do it. Make a backup of your stock via twrp first! Wipe via aroma, and then flash :)

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] griever721:
You can do the standard full wipe from TWRP as well. When you flash the Viper zip, you will be given the option to wipe your system.

Telus M8

Is there any way I can flash a Telus M8 that has these bands to turn into a Tmobile M8? I want to use this rom or stock,.. how would I go about it?

Thanks for making the Viper on the M8 best rom!!!

4G (LTE): 700MHz (Band 17) / 850MHz (Band 5) / 1900MHz (Band 2) / AWS (Band 4) / 2600MHz (Band 7)

Network (HSPA): 2100MHz (Band I) / 1900MHz (Band II) / AWS (Band IV) / 850MHz (Band V) / 900MHz (Band VIII)

Network (GSM): 850MHz / 900MHz / 1800MHz / 1900MHz
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Garmig:
Roms do not include radios as far as I know.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] hawaiianboi:
As long as the Telus M8 already has all of the bands that T-Mobile uses it should not be a problem. Installing a different rom will not change what bands are available for the phone to use.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] CoCoGirl886:
Thanks Viperteam for the rom! A quick question.. if I wanted to reflash the rom again but keep my viper settings.. is there a way to backup the settings so I don't have to reconfigure everything again?

There's an option on the first page of Venom Tweaks that let's you backup your setup :)

Is there an option or way to get the original launcher size back?

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] griever721:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I read that if you were to wipe and reflash viper, the settings that you backed up via venom tweaks will not be available for a restore. The restore is only available if you're not wiping and re-flashing?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] hawaiianboi:
That would make sense seeing how viper would store the backup of settings to the phone itself and not the external memory card. If you can find where the backup is located, you may be able to make a copy of that to the external SD card and move it over after the wipe. I dont feel like reinstalling everything on my phone to test this theory out just yet tho :P
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] BecomingxInsane:
I've been using this ROM for a few weeks and love it. (As i did with my M7.) However I have a question. With WiFi calling, I can't seem to send MMS messages. I can receive them just fine, though.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] treetolber:
Is there a known issue with sending mms over wifi? I ran into this yesterday at my work. The picture wouldn't go thru until I either disabled wifi calling or wifi all together. So I flashed the stock rom back and went to the T-Mobile store where they put a new, "updated" sim card. I took it home and tested on my wifi and everything was good. So I naturally thought the new sim card fixed the problem. So I reflashed ViperM8 last night and didn't think anything of it. Then today I decided to test it out at my work wifi again and once again it won't go thru. So my guess is that either my access point is jacked up, my work's gateway is jacked (but nothing else on the network has issues), or there is a bug with ViperM8. I will reflash stock rom and try that on my work wifi to rule that out.

More to come.....

Test complete. The mms went through while on wifi and with wifi calling enabled after I flashed the stock rom. So maybe ViperM8 has an issue or a setting somewhere that I am not privy to.
