[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ahecht:
Did the phone give you a warning that the battery was going to die?

I've found that in the last few months, even before upgrading to Marshmallow, my battery often fails when the meter is still reading 20% or so. Since the phone doesn't have a chance to shut down cleanly (and show the shutdown animation) I would often lose things like WiFi settings in KitKat. Now that I'm on Marshmallow, I often find that many of the system settings as well as pretty much all of my Google Apps lose their settings as well. I think it's because the phone shuts down while these apps are in the middle of writing to their settings, causing them to be corrupted.

Haven't found a reliable way of recalibrating the battery meter yet (letting it charge while off sometimes helps, but it's screwed up again by the next charge cycle).

I did that too a couple hrs ago lol just got off work and got on here to post it [emoji106]
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] drlzanej:
Yeah, if i remember right when i flashed the first time i didnt add anything from google accts. and added it later. So that may be a round about fix is to just add laer or to remove and add it back. Point is its working now. Awesome.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Hulkanator:
Adding new user, when trying to set up new user, I get error stating setup has stopped. I tried a new download and a fresh install. Can someone try to add a new user to their device and see if they get the same error. This is the third time I tried to get this working. Have gotten no replies. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I can add a guest account , but when I try to use set up I still get the same error stating that it has stopped
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Yes, same error here.

Hi Babboyz Team , i have a M8 Harman\Kardon , i installed this v4.0 rom ( flash add HK also) and i feel so good until the sound quality , it not good like stock rom HK . So i hope u make a rom like this from M8HK , (like badboyz v2.1 , but android 6.0) . Thanks !!!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
I'm getting the same on M9...I'll have to do some reseach

[MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] I know u have a HK...u see u difference in sound quality?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] drlzanej:
Im not the Captain but i do have H/K so ill answer anyway. Not at all, still sounds great.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Did you install the HK add-on for the ROM?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dangtoi1993:
yeah, of course. But that sound is smaller and not great like stock M rom. I am using stock rom (with not good battery life like BBoyz 4.0) and wating for Badboyz rom from M8HK.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I doubt you'll be getting it, as you seem to be the only person with this issue. Audio sounds fine on my end. Unfortunately "smaller and not great" isn't quantifiable. Plus, I wasn't on stock long enough to compare it ;).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
as many in here know, all of us BB's are on the M9...I would only create a specific HK version if the issue was confirmed by multiple ppl

Update your TWRP.

---------- Post added at 01:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ----------

@OMJ

You should update the OP to indicate that the latest official TWRP should be used. Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] alibhuiyan5:
Which version should I update? Should I use flashify app to update twrp?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
The latest official version. And you should use TWRP to update TWRP.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] alibhuiyan5:
How to update I asked? Should I use fastboot method or flashing tools apk to update this latest twrp
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I answered your question. I said to use TWRP. Go to the TWRP thread OP and you'll understand what I mean.

No progress in installation of ROM 6.0

I installed "6.20.651.3 Signed Full Firmware" using Firmware Update Utility but it froze in the booting. I was able to turn it OFF. Later I verified that the firmware was installed. I set the unit in "recovery" expecting TWRP but it opened in "Android Recovery". Anyway I applied update from SD card to install the **add_HK.zip and **Marshmallow_V4 but I get two messages:

1. Footer is wrong

2. signature verification failed.

My phone is now bricked. Do I have any alternatives to get it going? I was so hopeful. I checked md5 sum and they matched.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] cardinal35:
I have been reading the M8 RUU and BadBoyz ROM threads. Are the following steps correct to install the latest BadBoyz ROM on a Sprint HTC ONE M8 non-HK?

S-On Rooted Stock

Android 5.0.2

HTC Sense Version 6.0

Kernel Version

3.4.0--g701a60f

and@AABM #1

SMP PREEMPT

Baseband Version 1.09.20.0209

Build Number 4.25.651.18 CL501086 release-keys

1. Unlock Boot loader

"fastboot OEM lock"

2. Rename the 6.20.651.3 Signed Full Firmware to firmware.zip.

3. Install firmware

"fastboot OEM rebootRUU"

"fastboot flash zip firmware.zip"

"fastboot flash zip firmware.zip"

"fastboot reboot-boot loader"

4. Unlock Boot Loader using htcdev.com

5. Flash twrp-3.0.0-0-M8.img

6. Flash RUU_M8_WHL_M60_SENSE70_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_6.20.651.3.exe

7. Flash Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_M8_Marshmallow_v4.0.zip

8. Flash Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_M8_M_add_HK.zip
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Vcek:
Step 6 comes after 3(before unlocking bootloader) as shown(corrected your post in red) :

Also if you get errors while running RUU.exe , extract rom.zip from windows temp folder and flash it like the firmware (step 3 but don't repeat flash command)

Edit: rephrased my reply to avoid future confusion
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] cardinal35:
Thanks! I will Flash TWRP after (Step 3) installing the firmware.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dopy25:
[MENTION=5769277]cardinal35[/MENTION]

I'm fairly certain the bootloader needs to be unlocked to flash twrp.

Also, the latest RUU will not flash unless you have the latest FW, plus it will not flash if the bootloader is unlocked with an "S-On" device.

Which would make the initial question a yes, that is the correct order (with a few minor details)

1. Unlock Boot loader (this locks the bootloader, not unlock)

"fastboot OEM lock"

2. Rename the 6.20.651.3 Signed Full Firmware to firmware.zip. (I believe this needs to be renamed to 0P6BIMG.zip to flash from hboot, it can be anything if flashed using fastboot commands as far as I know. but in your next question you have it called firmware.zip, so yes)

3. Install firmware

"fastboot OEM rebootRUU"

"fastboot flash zip firmware.zip"

"fastboot flash zip firmware.zip"

"fastboot reboot-boot loader"

4. Unlock Boot Loader using htcdev.com

5. Flash twrp-3.0.0-0-M8.img

6. Flash RUU_M8_WHL_M60_SENSE70_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_6.20.651 .3.exe (you cannot flash this while unlocked so you might want to do it before unlocking and flashing TWRP, but it's not necessary if you already updated FW and are going to flash BB ROM)

7. Flash Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_M8_Marshmallow_v4.0.zip

8. Flash Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_M8_M_add_HK.zip (flashing this will not do you much good if you are S-On)

I hope a recognized contributor will correct me if I am wrong.

See response from CPTB below.

---------- Post added at 10:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 AM ----------

In order to flash anything to the ROM you need an unlocked bootloader and TWRP. It sounds like you flashed the FW and it overwrote your recovery. Try to go to HBOOT and into fastboot, reflash TWRP and it should be good. Then you can get back into TWRP and most likely BB Rom. Also, HBOOT is the easiest way to flash the FW. I think OMJ said not too long ago that the FUU is not that great for MM. (I could be wrong but I think he suggested hboot method anyway because the FUU does freeze)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
[MENTION=4234157]Vcek[/MENTION]'s response was correct. RUU should come before unlocking. Do it after unlocking and flashing TWRP would necessitate relocking to flash it (and would wipe it all out anyway, making it pointless).

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 PM ----------

He said to do step 6 after step 3, not flash TWRP after step 3 (as has been noted, flashing TWRP requires an unlocked bootloader).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dopy25:
I guess this response was what threw me off too. Isn't step 6 (ruu) not necessary though if they already flashed the FW and are going to install BB?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
The RUU is a more complete update - it helps make sure the device is at a good starting point. However the Marshmallow RUU can't be flashed without first flashing the signed firmware, which I assume was the point here.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] cardinal35:
Sorry, mixup! Correction noted, perform RUU after Firmware...I was using Vcek's corrections not realizing he had fixed my misordering. So Thanks Vcek and Captain for keeping me straight.

Also, thanks Dopy25 for pointing out that I cannot use the HK add-on if I am S-On. I did not know that information. I will omit that Step.

No audio after HK flash

I flashed the rom and it's working perfectly. But ever since I flashed the HK add-on, I don't get any audio through the speakers or headphones when listening through the default music app or doubletwist. Bluetooth audio works fine in all apps and I can use speakers and headphones in YouTube and when watching videos. I still get the HK options. Very strange
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
are u s-on? if so, the HK addon zip includes the adsp firmware needed, it wont flash for s-on ppl....either get s-off or dirty flash rom for boomsound
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mbwambo:
How can i delete it....because i cant access root ..since it shows only screen activation

delete it from twrp (recovery)

mount system, then advanced, then file explorer, then navigate to the folder & delete
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] 07lema:
thanks

Thanks for the speedy reply. I am indeed s-on, that'll be the problem. Luckily I backed up before HK flash, so I'm back to plain old boomsound. Funny how it is semi-supported, was able to hear the difference with Clari-Fi enabled when playing music through headphones in VLC and over bluetooth in music app.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EarlyMon:
[MENTION=506238]OMJ[/MENTION] - I have a request for a mod if you're open to it.

Zram is activated by calling swapon_all from /init.project.rc - are you open to moving that to etc/init.d?

With zram on, the phone loads more into the limited ram and runs smoothly - I clobbered etc/fstab.swap by commenting out the zram partitions, I think that effectively turned it off - and without zram although I have more memory reloads from cache most things just seem to run faster.

Only problem is I don't know if clobbering fstab.swap has any side effects from swapon_all running in the first place with nothing to do. If that's safe, forget I asked. I was thinking others might want to try it as well.

Thanks!

BTW - 15 hours on, 3.5 hours SOT and a terrible cell signal but lots of WiFi - battery only dropped 50%. :D Loving this rom!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] herminiob:
I installed the software on my Sprint HTC One M8 Harman Kardon Edition. However I use the GSM band and every time I boot the cellular it always attempts to do a Hands Free Activation from Sprint supposedly on CDMA. I cannot update profile in the System Updates areas so I cannot get rid of it. Eventually I use the GSM service (only G data). Should this be the normal booting procedure?

After I wrote my inquiry I saw the solution offered to mbwambo. I will try to fix it. If not, I can really live without it .

Thanks anyway.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] herminiob:
I used one of the file manager apps to do it. Could not worked it out with TWRP. It works fine now.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
I'm not really a kernel guy, but in previous ROM rls', I have disabled this with the recommendation from a kernel dev...I don't know the side affects but I'll look into it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EarlyMon:
I appreciate it sir. As I said, I'm personally ok with clobbering the fstab.swap if that's fair enough. Also saves mucking about with the ramdisk.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
based on what I've read & told by [MENTION=4165809]thicklizard[/MENTION] there should be no issues disabling
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] sparkeymat:

safemode? just to confirm, you have a Sprint HTC One M8? which ROM did u install, and what firmware version do u have?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EarlyMon:
Going back to -

Ok, so from OmniRom I found that swapon_all is really fs_mgr_swapon_all (fair enough because zram is Google-supported) and then looked at fsmgr.c at android.googlesource.com and it's pretty straightforward, it's going to loop through that fstab.swap until exhausted and return success because nothing failed during zram startup.

All good, sorry to have bothered you, couldn't find the definition before. :p :)

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] buckhunter:
Am I the only one that uses 4x5 home screen ? Lol
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] sparkeymat:
I'm s-off on the latest Bad Boyz ROM. I can't get any of the new prism mods to work. I might just not know what I'm doing. I assumed they would take effect after I flashed them. Is there someplace I need to go to activate them? The 5x6 app drawer is not an option in grid size anymore. The home screen menu if not a big deal to me but the big blink feed pics and landscape I can't figure out either.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] FusionX:
Indeed. HS menu and 5x6 not working in this mod. No big deal, just FYI. Thanks for everything with this rom.

As a side note, a few days ago (weeks after flashing or modding anything) my phone randomly rebooted itself and wiped many system settings and the data of most apps. All user apps stayed installed but most force closed when trying to run them. Had to reflash. Anyone else experience anything similar?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
very possible :)

use the tweaks app to activate landscape & big BF pix...homescreen menu is activated in setting/display

are you on v3.0 ROM (Marshmallow)? this Prism should be the same version as M9, which is working fine...

flash the previous modded Prism, then go to Play Store & see what the version # is available for update.

Yes this happens to me sometimes just did it again a few days ago. I also noticed when I use the camera sometimes especially with flash phone will shut off and be almost dead when I turn it back on no matter what percent it was on when it shut off.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EarlyMon:
Check your charger and cable - definitely if they were involved when that happened. I've had two phones do that side by side charging during a storm on an unprotected circuit, and many others have reported similar. It seems that is part of the emergency shutdown if your phone is hit with an overvoltage problem.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] buckhunter:
That's good advice. Mine never does it when it's plugged in only when it's unplugged. I saw a few people post about this issue awhile back maybe they will reply if they found any fixes
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EVOuser94:
I don't believe it's anything to do with the charging of the battery, but a glitch within the Marshmallow update... usually happens when I let my phone drain battery completely, but on lollipop is doesn't do this...
