[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
Just an FYI, the Captain's latest recovery is 2.8.6.2 which is outdated. TWRP is up to 2.8.7.2, but for the M8, only 2.8.7.0. 2.8.6.2 might be good enough, but IIRC [MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] himself has said that his 2.8.6.2 is outdated by the official release.

You can use Flashify from the play store if you don't wanna ADB. You can download the recovery img from within the app as well.

I've never got Flashify to work either.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sid3091:
Still no luck. Im at a complete loss here. Is there any other recovery besides twrp that may work on this device?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
Been wondering this myself. At present, no. There absolutely is not.

TWRP, as far as I know, started out as the alternative to CWM (ClockWorkMod) Recovery. CWM has a touch version out, but it's famous for working like stock recovery, or HBOOT. Volume to scroll, power for enter. Very barebones, but powerful. The other big recovery is just a mod of CWM, and it's called Philz. One of them used to be available for the M8, but hasn't been updated since shortly after the M8 came out. If someone with CWM could be persuaded to update it, maybe we could get an alternative to TWRP, but at the very least they'd need an M8 to dev on.

Only way to unlock bootloader on Verizon m8 is paying $25 for SunShine - this will give unlock bootliader and S-OFF

As for just temp root you may be able to use "kingroot"

Or weaksauce may work as well

I suggest S-OFF, well worth the $25 to free the phone.

Best of luck. :)

You can download the new update here.

All versions before v3.0 will not have their files updated anymore since I've moved from hosting on BasketBuild to Amazon S3. Please update to v3.0 to ensure you're getting the latest recovery and root files!

Hey, is there a Microsoft C redistributable I should have installed to let windroid run? Works fine on my Win10 machine at home, but my older Win7 at work won't let windroid even start up.

Great work by the way! It was unbelievably easy to use at home!

EDIT: Never mind! Found the FAQ in the main project page!

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StormChaser46:
I seem to be having some issues with root. I'm rooted and I've got SuperSU installed. I'm trying to install GSam Battery Monitor Root Companion, but it doesn't seem to be installing properly, and suggests manually copying and/or installing BusyBox. I tried installing BusyBox, but it either fails or resets the phone. And I've tried manually copying the file, but it either crashes or is removed (from /system/priv-app) after a restart. It seems these apps have been granted proper access, so any idea why it's failing?

I'm on stock 4.3 and I was notified about new updates.... I'll post screens after install

Walkman goes to 8.3.A.0.2 and it seems is like recent Movies app

Album goes to 6.0.A.0.26 and I don't know yet what are the improvements

Both updates seems to give acces to unlimite services, in SP that was blocked (for walkman at least)

Album

Update Centre notification

New menu sliding from the left

Here all images, with one random image/photo at the top, note the traslucent top (Home and option button). If u tap the photo at the top, the album shows all photos from that month

And note all menus are translucent

View images, now the album, share and options button doesn't have a black bar, nice (also, you can know Yiska, mi Schnauzer xD)

The new SenseMe(TM) Slideshow (with Yiska again xD), now you can set easily effects for de slideshow as well a background music

Walkman

Update Centre notification

New menu sliding from the left too

New look for the home screen of the walkman (the star was edited because is a photo that I have in the blueetooth folder xD). If u scroll down u get acces to music unlimited popular songs an playlists

The new Now Playing, with a stylish background (a little different from before)

And then the translucent menu

Settings

I'm looking for imrovements, in album app there's no be_album file yet so I think BE2 is not working yet, and actually I think this is .201 related (well 4.3 related)

Here you can dowload the apps in apk format, thanks to [MENTION=4877295]alone_in_dark[/MENTION]

[Xperia SP General] Oblox:
Walkman updated this morning (was on existenz3.3.0) the new look is stylish but I hate that you cant seem to remove all the music unlimited rubbish now.

My gallery didnt show as needing updating but i used the file posted in the apps forum and it worked fine, nice that they have some more views now (including folder view) but they still really need to allow sorting of images/folders and setting default views. Ill stick with quickpic for now.

Now running Slimbean for LB and you can still install the walkman and gallery ok on non sony ROMs. Removed them though until they get better.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bimmerman:
Is there a way to reduce the size of my front touch buttons? I recently broke my G2 and got a replacement via insurance. The buttons on the new phone are twice the size or more than they were on my first G2.

I really like it as they took up very little of the screen. I've looked around the forum a bit but do not see anything to reduce the size of them.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h-core:
Gravity box and g2 tweaksbox can both do that. Search for them in the play store. You may also need to install xposed framework first. Google for that.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bimmerman:
That did it, had to pay 99 cent for the full feature app but it fixed that and smoothed out a few other things as well

[Nexus 5 Android Development] 072665995:
I'm sorry. It really ticks me off to see no "features" page here. On Nexus devices, all the ROMs look exactly the same save for a few heavily modded ones. I really need to know what differentiates one ROM from another. Later before, I did visit Evervolv website to see "features" but I see that a lot of ROM makers cleaned everything up and started quite a bit from scratch. SO if somebody could point me in the right direction, big thanks to you :)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] SacredDeviL666:
Amazing

Thanks buddy :)

I have been flashing a hell lot of roms and keeps coming back to Cataclysm. Rest all the features are same in almost every rom...This cata has an option of disabling power menu option while on secure lock. I wonder why no other Rom builder thinks of it as an essential feature for the security of phone. I know you can still get into Recovery with the combination of Power/Volume buttons but again it isnt letting them do it easily so disabling powermenu on secure lock is amazing feature which all of the new custom roms fail to have.

Hope you could integrate this request, rest the rom looks fine i am onto it now :)

Thanks again :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Savant:

Thanks Savant..

[Nexus 5 Android Development] DigitalUnderground:
Stop talking about other ROMs in this thread. And twrp won't fail if you unchecked system in mounts before flashing. All of you need to read up on what you're doing and get out of this development thread unless you are contributing to development towards evervolv. This is not a general forum
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Savant:
No disrespect meant and you're correct the md5 was wrong so, bad download.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SacredDeviL666:
Funny.... i was requesting the developer for a feature and if that is pinching you sorry for that :)

buddy what you said only stops you from getting into system if you are rebooting while you are on securelock and you still get the power menu options. What i said was to completely disable the powermenu option in secure lock which is there in cata. So i hope you need to read up before giving instructions to others :)

Cheers mate...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Savant:
None fully disable power menu since some complained about it. ( should've clarified oh, well) If someone wanted to get into your phone by holding the power button and going into boot loader.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SacredDeviL666:
Yeaps and thats what i had been asking for fully disabling power menu options. I have found in Cata only so far among all other roms present in this thread of Nexus 5.

and thats what i was referring to this developer to integrate as the rest features seems superb...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Phazmos:
You're not looking hard enough

Where would an option to secure your device be located

Simple logic can be elusive to some
[Nexus 5 Android Development] SacredDeviL666:
I am not sure whether i understood you....

I have an app called cerebrus which emails/sms/notifies me the pic of a person who does twice incorrect pattern entry. Secondly if a device is lost the person who finds it and doesn't want to return the first thing he would do is to switch off the phone which he can't as he need to go beyond pattern lock to get that options. If he changes the sim card without disabling cerebrus for which he needs to unlock the pattern i still get the picture of incorrect pattern entries, or new sim entry and the location where the sim was changed :)

Well yeah if he is a tech savvy and not a noob he can't switch off the phone or boot the phone till he knows how to get into recovery. Again if i disable the option of system access from secure lock boot by key combinations he can't access system files either but can still switch off the phone.

So i believe now this clarifies how disabling the complete power menu with the combination of cerebrus help you with your phone security, it isn't a fool proof option but its close to it :)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] NineInchNails:
This is XDA. It can teach you how to develop and add the features you see in ROMs and want to see in others.

I guarantee you that if you reallllly tried hard enough and put the effort in you'll learn how to add the stuff you want to your ROM. All the information you need has been posted at XDA over its history.

Instead of wasting a lot of peoples time reading another yet again useless argument you could solve your own problems and/or questions.

How did developers become developers? By searching. Which is what almost everyone here needs to practise doing before posting.

Its only a forum rule that gets overlooked millions of times.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] JamesPumaEnjoi:
Xposed can do that for you I believe. As far as requesting settings in ROMs goes...your best bet is to submit stuff to their Gerrit...if you DO NOT know how to do that, the VERY LEAST you can do is find the setting or feature you want added on GitHub and copy and paste the link for a Dev so they can look at it and also to even consider adding it. These devs are people. They have lives/wives/children/family/jobs etc. Most of them do this for free and do this for fun. The LEAST we can do is try and locate settings and features for them. When they keep getting asked about adding features with no effort from us it kind of kills their fire and passion for building Android. The main reason they do it is for fun. So when we (as users and consumers) can help out even just a little bit... I can guarantee you they really appreciate it. Just Google it and I bet you will find it in no time. For instance I wanted a Dev to add in the feature Paranoid uses in their recent apps menu. I located the code on Git and submitted it. And they reviewed it. And ultimately I was given a response. XDA is for developers. And anyone who has been here for a long time will tell you this is NOT what it used to be like. It used to be developers helping/talking to other developers...but now it's going the way of developers building and consumers consuming. Which is fine. As long as we are respectful and helpful in the process...Sorry if I come off as an ass, but it needs to be said when feature requests are made with no effort by the requester.

Reading through the thread I think you misunderstood something.

There is little, to no point having an option to disable power menu on lockscreen.

Why?

Because any thief can press and hold on/off button for 5 sec to forcereboot phone and access fastboot/recovery. Try it yourself.

In fact, the anti theft apps out there will never beat the possibility that a thief will first force reboot the phone and use recovery to format system.

It's sad but In a way it's pointless having even a lock screen, it only protects privacy, not theft. You can feel secure that someone can't immediately access your phone but that counts for nothing other than privacy.
