That is unfortunate, I was also hoping someone would try it to see if it would help with the wifi and other issues. But one of the folks on the M8 forum said it was unrelated so I left it alone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jimmysdg:
Just wanted to report that after having constant GPS issues for the past week, it's working fine on today's nightly.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
It would seem somebody is thinking about it, the 5/23 nightly wants permission to flash a recovery.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
what do you mean by "the 5/23 nightly wants permission to flash a recovery"
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
When I flashed it at the end of the flash in recovery, it warns of the intention to flash a new recovery and asks if you want disable it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
thats very strange, I'm confused still
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
It's in the changelog

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kuuroki:
I used the nightly build of CM11 for the M8 for a few days, and had several problems with it.

YouTube constantly force closed on me, I had problems receiving calls, and worst of all, my battery life had become slightly worse.

Not only that, but the phone lagged, even when doing menial tasks.

I was not impressed; however, seeing as how it's a nightly build, I will wait for the official release before I pass judgement. After all, when it did work, I enjoyed the experience. Does anybody know when an official build will be released?

Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
sorry I dont wanna flash the ROM just to see this, I appreciate all the feedback, Sir.

so, it basically warns you not to flash a different recovery while on this ROM unless you have it enabled in dev options?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Div033:
Check back in six months to a year. If we're lucky we'll have a decently stable M build by then but basically I wouldn't hold your breath. To put things in perspective CM has been available for the Galaxy S3 since sept/Oct 2012 and just recently got an M build with reasonable stability. There was also a specific nightly in July of CM10.1 that ran smoothly, but all the builds had their fair share of issues and quirks.

I admit I don't completely understand the work these people do, but I can imagine the development they do at the kernel level is nothing short of nightmarish. Ever notice how almost every AOSP based ROM uses CM's device trees? I believe they simply don't have the resources (nor the time/money) to create "stock" quality software. There's too many proprietary blobs they don't have access to which they'd normally need to get things functioning correctly, so they have to do things the much harder way; reverse engineering.

In short, don't expect an official stable release. They've said they're moving away from marking builds as stable (because they often weren't) and just using the M format from here on out.

I realize this probably came off negatively, but I'm just trying to gauge expectations. I too have been in your shoes. Honestly the biggest reason I got the M8 was because it has great stock software.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kuuroki:
To be honest, I'm not surprised. When you hear that they're going to stop referring to builds as stable, it kind of makes you wonder..The development must be hellish, as you said.

Hopefully in a year, we will have a decently stable build-because I do like CyanogenMod and all it's features. The developers are doing God's work. :^)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nflchampion:
It takes a little work, but once you've tweaked it enough and assuming you follow the nightlies thread most of the issues have been sorted by this point. I can't blame you if you aren't particularly interested, but I've had great results with the most recent nightlies (tweaked in the M8 thread to fix some video issues) combined with the the excalibur kernel.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Cremacious:
Decided to try out the latest nightly and found the camera to force close. Which nightly are you running?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nflchampion:
Try this one linked on the M8 nightlies thread. The camera/video force close bug has been in for a few nightlies, and task650 has been recompiling a version that gets rid of it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52902692
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] harry_seaward:
Any tips on making the camera better? I'm coming from a Galaxy S3 and the HUGE loss of picture quality is really a bummer.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
It's stable right now, the latest nightly fixed all the issues I had, it's now my daily driver.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Div033:
I'd tread lightly using terms like "stable". There are clearly still issues other people would define as unstable. For example, from task650 on the CM thread regarding incorrect CPU scaling:

"In conjunction with the CM kernel its a daily driver too. The min frequency just needs to be set and applied on boot every time until its worked out. Seems like the issue started after some CPU boosting hook commits were merged. I'll be able to look into it this week at some point. :)"

Using the Excalibur kernel seems to correct this issue for now though. Also I still see people having WiFi issues. Not everyone seems to have them though, so YMMV.

I'm also curious whether or not some of the various graphical glitches have been corrected.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
The word I wanted was "STABLE" as in solid as a rock, OK?

I've never had to set min. frequency, it's remains exactly as set using the stock kernel. WiFi issues were fixed several nightlies ago.

I have no graphical glitches, it's STABLE!

I can only report on results on my phone.

As most know by now, every phone is different. For me, CM is stable, rock solid, bug free and my daily driver.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Div033:
Well then consider yourself very lucky! Congrats on your stability. I did not intend to offend, but there has been 1,000 times where someone has said x build is stable and I go to use it and find it still has issues I can't deal with on a daily basis.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] JasonJoel:
Stable as long as you don't need speakerphone... Lol
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
You'll never know until you try it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Cremacious:
The latest builds are decent, but since they're still not as smooth and efficient as Sense ROMs its hard to stick with CM for now instead of just playing with it for a day.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I have been running the Liquid ROMs, and one who is a Sense lover, I can say I am quite impressed.

Had the encryption bug, no biggie, bug that is squashed, and since then I have has no issues, run the phone as I would Sense ROM and no issues.

Of coarse stable will be much better, but for how soon it is, I have to say it's pretty awesome.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Div033:
Yeah I use speakerphone quite a bit so this would bug me a lot.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
I don't want to rain on our happy parade, but I just got the encryption password prompt!.

How did you fix it Andy?:confused:

I can't restore the backup, it won't mount the the internal storage.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
oh man wth, what build were you running?

I was able to somehow adb sideload my Bonestock ROM and it fixed the issue and my internal was actually saved.

also you should post in the Liquid thread that they did not fix the issue.

if your internal is not mounting, you need to reboot to fastboot, and fastboot RUU flash the RUU.

anything on internal hopefully you have backed up as it is gone now. :(
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
I was using the cm11 5 26 nightly. I was able to sideload the same nightly, wont boot past the you know what.

but I cant get my sense rom to sideload.

I'll try yours
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I did the same and then did my sense ROM and it worked. My ROM is too large so debloat it by removing unnecessary applications then ADB sideload will work and hopefully you will be good. I would still suggest that you run the RUU though.

Does CM say that they fixed the encryption bug? Liquid said they fixed it in their 5/22 build, no one has had it again since (yet anyway)

Best of luck and keep us posted on your progress.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
Well, that little episode sure did suck! I got it back without using RUU, but not without actually formating the internal storage in recovery. I was able to sideload ACR Rom, 385 mb. Everything else was too big. When it booted, it was still asking for the password, WTF I say. Oh well my phone is nice and clean again. It wasn't that difficult, used the all in one tool to do the sideload, worked well.

All in the name of learning!:good:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DroidFamily:
How do you change lockscreen wallpaper? I'm going crazy trying to find it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kuuroki:
That's interesting. I've had nothing but a myriad of problems with CM11 on my One M8. I liked it, but I couldn't use it as a daily driver. It had way too many bugs.

You've really had 0 bugs at all?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
None related to CyanogenMod, my TV remote doesn't work but it didn't even in stock form nor does any other TV remote in the play store, I suspect none will connect with my Visio Smart TV?

I went through some WiFi problems but they are fixed in the later nightlies as are the Video problems.

I never had the BT problems I had with my Galaxy S3, apparently those were fixed long ago.

It's easily a DD for me.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Kuuroki:
I see, I see. Interesting-last time I used CM11 was a few weeks ago. I prefer PA, but it's good to hear that some of the bugs are being ironed out.

Also, that's strange that you're unable to connect to your television-I was able to do so with ease. Most likely a problem with your TV, I assume?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
I think it's something in the TV, I've tried with a Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4 and the M8, no apps work or will connect! Every now and then I can turn the TV on but it's rare, it can't be repeated and no other functions work.

FWIW, I do know the Otter Box Defender case does block part of the IR signal, the very unreliable intermittent partial success I've had never occurs with the phone in the case!

I gave it up sometime back, it's not worth the time to mess with it.

TV is a Vizio 32" Smart TV. I think the "smart" functions are the problem?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] davidgfriedman:
So what, exactly, is lost when going from Stock to CM11?

Forgetting the growing pains of getting CM11 up to a "M" release, do we lose any fantastic features by going from Stock to CM11? Technically, we lose the:

a) tap to unlock' kernel (I haven't decided if I like that yet)

b) the FM radio (.apk missing with Verizon but downloadable, I tried it but the permissions list scared me so I had to factory reset to remove it)

b) the special camera features (questionable).

Do we lose anything else or do we have equivalent features we can add to this CM11 M8 build?

Did I mention I love how fast this phone is compared to my Droid Razr MAXX running (stock or) CM11-M6? I've been on CM so long I miss it after just 3 days. I took the Verizon $99 HTC M8 upgrade this weekend. I guess they are doing a price war because they are afraid of the features of the Oppo Find 7 / OnePlus One and the LG3 displays. So, my win!

thanks for your input,

David
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
You really aren't losing much in the way of features. CM11 for this device has the FM radio, so even that is moot. There have been many of the same bugs reported over and over, wifi, bluetooth, mostly connectivity. Oh yeah some are having GPS issues as well. I haven't experienced experienced any of that myself. But one thing to be aware of is, there is a bug that makes your internal storage look encrypted requiring a password that you have not assigned, and you will need to wipe your internal storage to fix it. If you need your phone and want to keep your data at least make a backup on your PC before you use it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DroidFamily:
I cannot get my gmail contacts to sync is anyone else having trouble
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] harry_seaward:
I'm on the 0514 build and most everything is running smoothly, except for one thing. When I play music via BT in my car, the sound just cuts out for a second, every minute or two. It's insanely irritating. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm scared to update to a newer version because of this encryption bug thing.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
The encryption bug will only impact you if you hard boot using the Power + Vol +. Use adb reboot if you get stuck and need to reboot if the power menu will not come up. Copy the contents of your SD to your computer PRIOR to updating in case the bug hits you. That way once the new ROM is loaded you can copy the contents of your SD back. The bug does not impact the Ext SD.

---------- Post added at 08:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

I have this issue on GPE. I went into Settings->Click on your Google account, click on your email address, check and un check the contacts flag a few times. Eventually, mine did sync. Hopefully that works but GPE is not CM so not sure. Worth a try,
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mr.Trakinas:
I think you have to download the google apps package for CM. It's the google sync app missing?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
I've had to go back to Clean ROM for now because CM seems to have trouble connecting to weak WiFi signals. A couple of days ago I was in a restaurant and after many tries failed to establish a connection, rebooted into recovery, restored my backup of Clean ROM and connected immediately.

My guess is there may be something different in the radio used? Is there a different radio I could try that would see weak WiFi signals better than what's included in CM?

NOTE: again, I'm on Clean now, I can't see what radio I have in CyanogenMod w/o restoring the ROM, sorry.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pjim:
Radio is the same radio you have always had, that doesn't change. What does change is the way it's handle in the ROM.

That being said, the wifi has been a huge problem for some folks. But they are aggressively working on it now.

The current changelog is giant, http://www.cmxlog.com/11/m8/, almost a total rebuild. should be much nicer to use.

They've been working on it all weekend.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
Thanks, I'll give it a look when it's up.

Wow, nothing since June 7th! It must be a major rewrite!

Probably worth the wait, the update showed up today, June 11th and may have fixed my WiFi concerns, I visited a restaurant this AM that had problems connecting in the past and it connected with little fuss.

Good work, CM group!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] JBmfG:

WiFi still wonky, now it disconnects and I can only re-connect by rebooting.

That's with the 6/15 nightly, I haven't tried the 6/17 yet.

6/17 seems fixed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
Im just worried about installing CM and it breaking all kinds of apps and stuff like it did on my GNex :/ its nice that they got it working though
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] JBmfG:
This works in case anyone is interested.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] henrys01:
Yes I have it working on my phone. You need to put the apk on your sdcard and then execute the following from adb to make it work:

su

mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system

cp /sdcard/EasyAccessService.apk /system/app/

chmod 644 /system/app/EasyAccessService.apk

reboot

Other notes from running CM for the last few days is the battery life is slightly less than the stock rom but still really good. Speed and stability are there. Nothing has FC'd on me yet. I have noticed it forgets your wifi network on reboot and sometimes it disconnects and shows "null" where it normally would say "Connected". After tuning wifi on/off it reconnects fine. The only other annoying bug is the microphone still doesn't work on speakerphone. Other than that its a solid daily driver and I'm glad to be back on AOSP!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bill.allrobots.org:
Something that hasn't come up in a while---how is the camera? The last time I flashed a nightly the camera was very, very slow, specifically to autofocus. Quality seemed less but it's hard to tell; the camera just struggles in some situations.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] henrys01:
Seems totally fine to me..
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xs11e:
I haven't noticed the slowness in autofocus, I will say I have CM and CleanROM (a Sense ROM) and the camera does work differently in each but it does work to my needs in either ROM.

There's an app called HD Camera Ultra that may help....

If you are a better photographer than I am you may not be satisfied with the results but personally, I think the cameras suck on all Android phones, the best cameras I've ever seen on a cell phone were on a very old, very obsolete Blackberry Curve and on a very old, very obsolete Samsung FlipShot. Both took pics better than anything I've taken with any Android phone!

could someone please be so kind and direct me to a link with how to go about the internal storage error password suggestions..

Does this sound correct?

They were giving it for free when it launched. $199 buy one get one free and $100 per line bill credit equals free for 2 new lines.

Add in the ISIS activation credit and they were actually paying you to take 2 new HTC One M8 phones out the door at Verizon. I took them up on it and promptly sold one of the new phones for $700 to cover my ETFs.

We have three lines. One for me, my wife, and transferring upgrades.

So, I transferred the upgrade from my unlimited line to my dumb phone line and bought my wife an S5. It's been a few weeks, and I noticed my unlimited line is still eligible for an upgrade. So I transfer the upgrade to the dumb phone line, and order myself the M8 for $99.

Did I just unlock unlimited discounted upgrades?
