[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Success100:
Im running the 4.4.4 version not Lollipop. I don't even know what ART is. I see it everywhere but never bothered to see what it is. I used xsposed to turn enable gravity box
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
My version was built off the test build. I'd at least update to [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION]'s build which is based on a release version.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thedodus:
Potentially stupid question but I'm on the latest firmware from this thread, Harmon Kardon edition. If I flash your "Remove red text" hboot, the firmware version in the bootloader screen changes to the non-HK version.

Am I still on the HK firmware and the modified hboot is just causing the wrong version to appear? Or does flashing that hboot actually change the firmware? I haven't noticed any problems, but just wanted to make sure.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
That number just reflects the mainver in android-info.txt in the zip you flashed. It doesn't mean the other firmware you flashed somehow magically changed, lol.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thedodus:
Alright that's what I thought, thanks for clearing that up!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] slimbrady:
Ah OK. Got excited there for a second thinking they finally got Xposed updated to work with ART runtime. Yeah, I'm not a developer either so maybe I can explain for you in easier to understand terms as I get the general principle I think...though I'm sure i'm seconds away from being corrected by 10 people about some part of it...haha =)

Anyway, most roms, including 4.4.4 GPE, run with Dalvik runtime which iirc uses the "just-in time" compiler for apps that essentially has several tasks it must complete when you click on an app icon on your homescreen or appdrawer or whatever before your app is then loaded and useable for you....ART is a newer advancement that will basically pre-load all the apps on your phone and keep everything they need to open cached and readily available so that when you click on an app the loadtime should be significantly reduced/practically gone which SHOULD(tm) result in a faster and more effecient user experience. Many apps are not compatible with ART at the moment, however, Xposed being one of them....but it sounds as though ART will be here to stay (for a while at least), so I expect that all apps/ROMS will be built with compatibility for ART in the near future. ...There's probably more to it than that but from the brief research I did when I was looking into developer options on my phone led me to, I believe, at least this partial understanding...

Hope that helps!

Is there any update yet .. [MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] update to 5.0 not 4.4.4

---------- Post added at 09:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 AM ----------

The [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION]'s Version as some graphics break down.. in some games the color changes But am gonna test your version first before you update
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I don't understand what you're asking. You did read the note in the OP, right?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Success100:
Think I'm going to sit on this ROM for a while. Its just perfect. Tried the upgraded 5.0 ROM and honestly I don't like the look of lollipop
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Emmikem:
I READ it never mind but Digitalhigh 5.0 build is not stable
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
The 5.0 ROM still hasn't been officially released yet. I'm sure the official base will be more stable. You'll just have to wait until it gets released like everyone else ;).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Emmikem:
Better.. I will wait
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] SantinoInc:
Cap I'm on your BeyondStock rom. If i want to flash this can i simply do a full wipe in recovery then flash? Will i still have HK audio?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
No HK audio, but yes, a wipe and flash will work fine.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Oh right, they have that Multi Carrier one now right?

Well thanks for all the work you did so in porting past versions :D
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I assume you read the OP . . .

And you're welcome ;).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sinistertensai:
Bs. You're a great dev. I wouldn't list you as such on my site if you weren't. Don't let xda idiots stop you from doing what you do cap!!!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] SantinoInc:
Cap, in my estimation has been the biggest resource around for help and development for the Sprint M8. Also, his stock based 4.4.4 rom on Mik's site is spot on!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EVOuser94:
He's only done with this port, because DigitalHigh and him worked together and made a unified port :) he has his BeyondStock ROM and Kernel, plus his TWRP to keep up with, thats alot already :)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Come on, Sin. Not completely done, lol. Just with this separate port.

Take note, everyone - this is what happens when you don't read the OP :eek: :rolleyes: ;)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sinistertensai:
Lol. Didn't read op! [emoji33]
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Okay folks, out of his kindness, [MENTION=4980163]tuxattack80[/MENTION] has agreed to take over the thread for me, so there's a "plain stock" GPE port for Sprint still available.

So thank him, and be nice ;).

P.S. The ROM is just [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION]'s stock rooted version of the 5.0.1 GPE OTA, so he deserves most of the credit here. I literally only changed 4 files, lol.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Thanks captain!! I'll do my best to keep this thread going in the right direction:highfive:

With that being said the build that captain is taking about is a plain no thrills rom(or will there ever be)1. Because I'm not a programmer, I'm a student. A very very very busy one at that and 2. Because [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION] has already supplied us with an awesome work of art rom capable of many different tweaks and features. This rom is for those that want a stock experience without the extras. [MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] was nice enough to port [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] stock rooted 5.0.1 rom for me in an attempt to show me what was involved in porting roms and was even nicer by allowing me to share it with the rest of you.

In the next couple of days I'll edit the op to bring everything up to date and make it easy to resort to if problems come up. I have a very busy life with two kids, a job in hvac in the winter, and studying for my journeymans. So with that said I'll ask all of you to help each out when possible:good:

Okay now for the build :laugh::fingers-crossed: everything that I've had a chance to test and a long list of things that was worked right out of the box.... So I'm going to say everything and leave it up to everyone else to prove me wrong lol. Also I managed to flash this from captains beyondstock 4.4.4 rom using 4.4.4 firmware with no issues what so ever so milages or bugs may very depending on what firmware you are running.

So here it is!!!!

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95851939534733817 all donations go to the cap, and the others listed above... Not me.

THIS IS A SPRINT ONLY BUILD, I DON'T OWN A VERIZON OR ATT DEVICE SO I CAN NOT TEST THOSE CARRIERS.

P.S- I'll do a better job on updating the OP to get it back to Captains standards soon. Just trying to get the info out there quickly. Dreading a long day tomorrow starting in about 4hrs lol.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] carrilloevo:
Can I use captain's kernel on this ROM ?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Yes (as long as it's the GPE version).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] v01rider:
just flashed. and O M G i am in heaven! been waiting for gpe 5.0! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Will xposed work with this version
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
Nope not compatible with android L
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] getinnocuous:
Many thanks to everyone involved with this ROM, Cpt Throwback, graffixnyc, tuxattack80, and anyone else who deserves the credit. Been letting it settle in on my HK and everything important seems to be working just fine (I haven't taken GPS for a literal test drive, I'll report on that). Only little issue I've got (minor one) is that, just like on digitalhigh's GPE ROM, screen casting won't work. Definitely not a big issue, just a minor inconvenience considering I used to constantly screen cast to my LG TV on Sense, good way to play some music at a loud volume. Thanks again, everyone.

Edit: To clarify, this isn't Chromecast-type casting I'm talking about here, I'm talking about casting to what Lollipop calls a "wireless display", which shows up as a Miracast connection on my TV.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
You're talking about in quick settings right? Does it work through the app itself ex. Youtube? Not sure if it's a bug or by design seeing as the only devices that seem to show in quick settings are chromecast and from what I've heard nexus players(some on correct me if im wrong).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] getinnocuous:
Yup, you start in quick settings, choose cast screen, more settings, and then from the drop down menu you can check "Enable wireless displays", which makes my LG TV show up as a Miracast device. It attempts to connect, even the TV responds with a little "Connecting Android blahblah" message, but the phone gives up after a few seconds. Netflix and Youtube apps work good, probably because they're on my TV as well. I've read a few posts that people are streaming to Chromecast just fine, but unfortunately I don't have one! It's lookin' like I'll just have to hold out for a possible fix (if there is one), or drop the $35 for a Chromecast if I get impatient, haha.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Lol believe me I'm in the same boat as you haha
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] honest1212:
I have a very strange issue. My data works perfectly on sense based ROM but as soon as I flash GPe based ROM, the data becomes unstable. It doesnt turn up after boot for 10 min or so and then it turns up. Sometimes, it remains without data for longer duration also.

I am from India and have checked all the tuning required to get the data working but still its not stable.

Any pointers on digging to know the reason?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] honest1212:
On a sidenote, PRL and other CDMA related parameters can be set in GPe ROM also. Please follow below:

On phone, using Terminal Emulator:

su

echo 1 > /sys/class/android_usb/f_diag/on

The phone will be in Diag mode and can be used with DFS/CDMA WS/QPST, etc

Once reboot, the diag mode will be removed and you need to put again by using the above.

Hope it helps.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Are you running this rom? Are you s-on or s-off? Custom kernel? Firmware version? I'm not having any data issues as of yet other than those caused by poor signal on Sprint's part.. Is it possible that you may have corrupted something and need to ruu back to stock(last resort)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] honest1212:
Yes, I am running this ROM only. Earlier I tried multiROM also but had the same issue. I have not flashed any custom kernel.

I just restored sense nandroid so cannot tell you the Firmware version now but Baseband version is 1.08.20.0916.

Further, I am not using Sprint, I am from India and using the same on Reliance CDMA network.

I just restored the sense based Nandroid and my data is working fine.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Da Baron:
Call me old fashion but [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] stock base 5.0.1 ROM is my favorite. For my use and experience this is a solid port.

No issues thus far...

Is GPS working on this one? as on Digital High edition the GPS lock wasn't persistent and turn by turn navigation was pretty much useless because of it
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Seems to be working fine here, haven't used it for navagation yet though.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
There's nothing different with GPS on this ROM vs. digitalhigh's version.

GPS works - you just have to properly get a lock in Sense before it'll work properly in GPE (on some devices). There is nothing wrong with GPS on either. That is a device-specific issue.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
I don't know if anyone wants to try it, but this mod pack works.

I did a backup just in case, and everything seems to work fine.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2964280

[MOD][Dec 11][#006] modPack for GPE 5.0.1 Stock/SkyDragon
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
Now, if I could get viper4android to work.

The first time I installed the 2 apps, it asked to install busybox.

I did this, and I couldn't get it to work still.

Disabled whatever option in developer options, and no music app would work.

After enabling again, and uninstalling v4a, everything worked again.

All this before flashing the mod pack.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I believe V4A requires SELinux to be in permissive mode. I think there's an app you can install for that.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
Thanks capt. I know I saw that before, but couldn't search in the app.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Da Baron:
Pardon the lack of knowledge. I am obviously running the stock L 5.0.1 ROM and have had no issues with data. Question is what if anything would implementing your above code to enhance my phone?

Much obliged,

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] stacksptdtdm:
how you turn off the roaming indicator?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
That should just say "Sprint." It has nothing to do with roaming at all. I know it was right when I flashed it . . . Did you perchance flash a mod from that Mod Pack? It definitely doesn't say that as it was ported.

EDIT: Actually I see battery percent in that pic, which I assume came from the mod pack. That's what borked it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] stacksptdtdm:
You know what. Your right it wasn't there before the mod pack come to think of it. Yes I flashed the mods
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Just a note about these mods - this ROM is a straight stock port, which means no mods.

If you wanted GPE with mods, why not just flash [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION]'s version? It's the same as this, except you can select the mods you want with AROMA when you install it.

The whole point of this one was for people that wanted bone stock GPE.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] deakelem:
Thanks capt! I wasnt sure if you were coming back to do v5 and ended with 4.4.4 - Been running DH here and there for a while but I loved your 4.4.4 rom so thats why im so happy to see you back at it..

Thanks again man!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] stacksptdtdm:
I understand, but DH ROM is giving me problems with voice calls. People on the other end can't hear me clearly. I'm not having that problem with this ROM. I can live with that indicator thing, no biggie.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
But I'm not back at it, lol.

My contributions are now being done as part of [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION]'s ROM. I merely pulled the Sprint section from that ROM zip and applied it to [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION]'s stock rooted ROM.

If you apply no mods, the ROMs are basically the same. So there's really no need for this ROM unless you don't plan on applying any mods. And that's why I'm not really supporting it anymore and have given the reins to [MENTION=4980163]tuxattack80[/MENTION]. I'm only fielding easy questions to which I happen to know the answers.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Hm, interesting. I might have to look into that, then.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] deakelem:
well then you are back in spirit then! lol jk - quick question and couldnt find it on OP but do you recommend flashing the latest 5 firmware as dh does? or just leave it at 4.4.4 firmware.

Thanks
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
If it works without it, don't bother. If you have issues (especially anything WiFi-related), then flashing it might help.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] williamvito:
Does hotspot work natively on 5.0.1? Or will I need to download a tether app?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] deakelem:
cheers, that i knew because "we" only had to tell 150 people on DH thread about that, i was just simply double checking with you if the recommended firmware selection had changed with your pure stock 5.0.1 gpe.

Thanks

worked fine for me on sprint with DH's build, i ll test right now and give you a def.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Same base, same firmware. Same rules apply.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ImSt00pid:
Got this running and it is great. Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Actually i believe it has something to do with ambient display. The reason i say this is because a while back before DH included it in his rom I remember flashing a zip from SD's forum and it broke the sprint network name. After I flashed the network name zip that you can fine a few pages back in this forum it fixed the name but ambient display would be ereased again.

Edit sorry it took so long to get back, been doing the early Christmas family thing.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
Which is why I made a backup.

DH's ROM is buttery smooth, but not all mods are working.

The main thing I'm looking for is the menu button. I noticed with the mod I flashed, the menu button also turns into a keyboard switcher.

It's nice, but it does appear there are problems with the "roaming indicator", and perhaps a few others I can't pinpoint to the mods.

Is there anyway to get a menu button and a clear all for recents on Sprint?

It's possible I've overlooked mods for Sprint.

I'll keep looking.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I wasn't actually guessing, lol. I know exactly what the problem is. The mods use the stock framework-res.apk as the base for modification. The one in this ROM is modified to display the network name properly and to have the complete CDMA APNs. Flashing the mod overwrites those changes.

Perhaps the Ambient Display mod also modifies framework-res. But that Mod itself is not the root of the issue.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
That's just a cosmetic issue. You're still on Sprint. So whichever one bothers you less, I guess.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
It's *possible* a VRTheme zip will replace the necessary files in framework-res after the mods have been flashed. I made such a zip (my first one!) and if someone wants to try it, I'll attach it here. If it doesn't work, you'll likely be stuck in a bootloop. So I'd advise backing up before trying (if you're willing).

Someone will have to report back and let us know. If it doesn't work, I'll just delete it - no permanent damage should be done.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
I'm always willing to test.

Edit: Do I have to be on this ROM with the mod pack flashed, or on DH's ROM, or does it matter?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Shouldn't matter. Those items should be the same on any Sprint version of GPE.

A system restore or dirty flash should fix it if it breaks the ROM.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] bridgep0rt:
Hey Wassup Cap.

Man thanks for eveything you do. I had the DH port before the update. My only issues with that was.

GPS - didnt work.

Google Camera - the sense Camera is sooooo much better..

Reading earlier in the post, they say the GPS is fine in this rom. What about the camera, would it be poss to install the the sense camera app or something?

Thanks in advance.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
If you go to [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION]'s thread he has it working in his rom not entirely 100% yet but works for the most part
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
Was a no go.

Flashed after flashing mod pack, and lost service completely.

Had quite a few force closes as well. Tried going into "Cellular Network" setting, and got FC's as well.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Well, I figured it was worth a shot. The way vrtheme works might not be compatible with Lollipop.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can adb pull your modded framework-res, open it in 7-zip and drop in the two files from the zip exactly where they are in the file (replacing what's there), and push it back to the device (I recommend doing this while in recovery) and try that. It might work.

Otherwise, we gave it a shot.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Hm, you're the second person to report that. What recovery are you using?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] pmacevad:
I think it's your latest twrp. Found out what happened. It created a "0" emulated sdcard extension. Found the backup of old Rom and it worked to revert back to sense. Saw that issue back on the m7 when we went from 4.1.2 to 4.2 and 4.3, so I checked to see if it happened here and looks like it did. May want to advise in op of this happens to someone else. Thanks for the response.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I need to know exactly what recovery you're using - version number and source. You say my latest, but depending on the version, that could be the issue. Please be specific.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] pmacevad:
So after I updated to v2.8.2.1 I tried flashing the Rom again and same result. For some reason this Rom wants to create a 0 directory on my emulated sd and move all my files there. Least I figured out where the files were going.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
That's odd, if it's not recovery then what else could be causing this issue with just a couple of people? Out of curiosity what rom did you come from before flashing?

I haven't experienced any issues flashing either one of the 5.0 Roms (captains initial, dh's or this one) been using twrp 2.8.1 official. I have noticed emulated 0 but its never caused an issue yet. Of course when I wipe I wipe....data(not format)system, both caches, internal SD the whole 9.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
The official TWRP 2.8.1.0 may end up breaking other stuff, though. It was built from deprecated source.

At any rate, I have seen a few random people with that problem. At this point I have no idea what's causing it. So, I'll leave it in the capable hands of [MENTION=4980163]tuxattack80[/MENTION] to figure out ;).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Using the word "capable" loosely i hope lol!!! I'll try a few things and see if i can research or at least possibly recreate it.
