Do they show back up if you reboot? I've had that happen once or twice on DH's rom as well and a simple reboot fixed it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] jokerpt50:
No, I tried rebooting and same issue.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
What version twrp are you using? Could be one of those things being broken that captain was talking about, seeing as I've had this happen to me a couple times but like i said a reboot always seemed to fix it.

How familar are you with using twrp? Pretty confortable?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] jokerpt50:
I am using TWRP ve2.7.0.2

I am pretty new to TWRP and i am installing by doing ADB sideload through TWRP.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Try updating twrp first as it seems that you're running an older version. Seems that captains build is recommended by many on here and you'll be able to find the link a few pages back. Should be v.2.8.2.0 i believe. Once you've updated recovery try flashing again. If that doesn't work formating data through recovery and reflashing maybe an option but start with captains twrp first.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] jokerpt50:
Thanks. I wound up reflashing and it worked. I haven't done any flashing for a few years and wound up wiping all ROMs on my phone and having to ADB sideload and got it to work.

Thanks for the help!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] KayIslandDrunk:
Works absolutely perfect on my Sprint M8! I flashed with TWRP 2.8.1.0 without issue. Thank you for this!!!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Thisismyringtone:
Well I have this same issue with no soft keys and i am on 2.8.2 for twrp I tried a dirty flash didn't work I will try a clean. I have had this on dh ROM as well but a reboot usually fixes it hmm weird.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
If that doesn't work do a full wipe including : system, data, internal sd(as long as the file your flashing is on external), both caches. Once you do that format data through twrp(DO NOT reboot like the script tells you to do in order to use data again) then just reflash. That should do the trick.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Thisismyringtone:
Ok awesome I will give it ago and let you know.

Update still no luck did a reboot as well. Still nothing ? not sure why it dislikes me ha
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
What firmware? How much testing are you willing to do? Just curious if reverting to 4.4.4 firmware will give a different result....
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Thisismyringtone:
Not much right now since I'm at work. I can do a little flashing here and there.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
I'm at work also, looks like you're on 5.0.1 firmware.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Thisismyringtone:
So maybe I will play with it more tonight and or tomorrow since I'm off to get it to work.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
[MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] just curious if you would no what the difference between griffix firmware and DH firmware? Noticed the file size was bigger but I'm unable to open to extract not flash before anyone makes that mistake.(((( Do not I repeat anyone reading this message flash graffix firmware on this device it will more than likely brick it because it is not designed for this variant)))).(bad zip error) was just going out on a limb and wondering if the sprint variant could be missing or breaking something in the current 5.0.1 firmware that could be causing the booting and soft key issues in the installer upon first boot up. Seems that the issue is being shown on both 2.8.1 and your twrp as well. Just a stretch i know.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] EVOuser94:
If you get bad zip error isnt that a sure sign of a bad download?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Yeah must be something to do with the link because I've downloaded or attempted too several times in the last couple of days.

---------- Post added at 07:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 PM ----------

For those that are having boot issues or no softkeys on intial boot I would like to get as much details together as possible. What rom did you start off with, firmware too? What rom are coming from before flashing this one? What recovery? How did you upgrade firmware? Manually or was it already updated before flashing this via DH's installer? I was able recreate(kind of) the softkey issue when i ruu back to stock and go directly from 4.4.4 firmware to 5.0.1 latest firmware. Seems to boot fine on 4.4.4 firmware but it seems if memory is correct that there was a 5.0 firmware as well. Just a wild guess that maybe something is missing and that's why this issue is hit and miss. In short im wondering if as long as youve stayed 5.0 to 5.0.1 and havent revertrd back that you'll boot fine but if you have reverted back to stock and flash the newest 5.0.1 firmware over 4.4.4 stock firmware thats when you encounter issues. So any feedback is appreciate more or less to prove my off the wall thinking after a 13 hour shift wrong.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
All that's in the 5.0.1 firmware package is adsp, rpm, sensor_hub and wcnss firmware. Nothing in there should/would break booting.

But if you have some tangible proof that it does, I'm definitely interested in seeing it.

graffixnyc's firmware is the full firmware package, including HBOOT, stock boot, stock recovery, GPE radios, etc. That would break data on your device and cause it not to boot (though it won't even flash because of the MID mismatch).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Okay thanks for the info captain. Wasn't planning on flashing was just a little curious of the contents and seeing if there was something there that we may have been missing. I'll look more into this tomorrow when time hopefully permits. What would be the best way of supplying you with evidence during install other than trial and error?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Thisismyringtone:
Well i got it to boot with the soft keys. Usually when i flash a new rom i wipe everything including the internal sd this time i didn't since i was coming from DH rom and they appeared right away. One thing i noticed was in TB where it says not writable when i have my backups on the sd card.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thenags:
Oh ****. Can't wait to try this. Been having tons of issues with the other Lollipop port.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Yeah I'm pretty sure this port has the system write protection on, haven't had a chance to look up how to change that yet.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Thisismyringtone:
Ahh OK its cool though just a heads up on it
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Yup. I didn't include any of "the usual" mods. Left it fully stock.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] zman6900:
Hey, this is so sweet. Thanks so much for doing this. I've been waiting for you specifically to update yours. I tried a different one and I had problems.

My hardware is Sprint HTC One M8 Harman Kardon: s-off (sunshine), updated firmware, TWRP 2.8.1.0. Install was buttery smooth and currently do not have any bugs.

Side note: SU seemed to eff'ed after it was updated through the Play Store. I'm pretty sure that's on their end. Feedback indicated the update is screwy.

Thanks again..

music stuttering

im succesfully run this amazing rom, im on sprint hk dev edition. lattest twrp. base on lattest FW. at the first install process as the op guide, i was unable to flash boot image from the rom. but after reboot its working flawless. :) my problem is music become stuttering when entering lock screen/ sleep mode. Anyone have the solution? Thanks in advance. :o
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
You might need to update your firmware.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] smokeythebear3:
I have music stuttering issues too when music is being played with play music and the screen goes off. Cant figure out what the problem is. It's not just this Rom, this happened for me using digitalhigh's gpe and viper Rom. I thought I was on the latest firmware, but I'll flash again tomorrow to see if it helps.

Captain, should I flash the adsp zip again after flashing the modified firmware?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Try this app, should work okay until i get a chance to look more into it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix

Tested copy and paste from sd to external and it worked with out having any issues.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
What adsp zip? Both the 4.4.4 firmware and the 5.0.1 firmware include adsp. If you're flashing anything else after that then I'm not sure what effect that'll have. Just make sure you've flashed both if you're having issues with just the full 4.4.4.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] smokeythebear3:
I last flashed the firmware files about a month ago. I'm pretty sure I flashed the 3.30.651.2 modified firmware from omj's thread. Since I didn't have a Harmon karmon edition, I thought I was supposed to flash the adsp zip to get those files. I guess I don't really need the adsp files since this is a gpe Rom and I won't be able to do hk audio. Regardless, I'll flash the firmware files again to make sure that's not the issue.

---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

I was trying to go to sleep, but I wanted to give this a try first since it was bothering me so much. I reflashed the 3.30.651.2 Modified Firmware using hboot method. I didn't flash the adsp firmware after. Music is no longer stuttering for me. I'm so confident I flashed the new firmware last month, but doing it again did the trick.

Hopefully gappank can try this as well and confirm this was the solution. Remember if you have HK version, you have to flash 3.30.654.2 Modified Firmware if s-off and 3.30.654.2 full firmware if s-on.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tvar2005:
Is there a way to get silent as an option for the ringer or do I have to turn on do not disturb in order to avoid my phone from ringing or vibrating while im at work
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] jayjam99:
Open phone app, go to settings sounds, change ringtone to none.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] gappank:
Thanks Captain, im already flash full 3.30.654.2 since im still s-on.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
You might need the 5.0.1 firmware to fully resolve this issue, which will require being S-OFF. So you will probably have to live with it until official Lollipop firmware is available.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Blars1206:
Press the volume button, then choose none. Phone will be completely silent.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] PxPx:
Is anyone else having problems with Photos force closing? Other than this issue, I am absolutely in love with this rom, great, great work Captain!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] gappank:
yes i can live..haha. Thanks Captain..keep up the great work :good:
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Uninstall then reinstall Google+.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] PxPx:
That didn't work... I've been getting this everytime, "Unforunately, the process android.process.media has stopped."

Edit:

In case anyone else has this problem, I seemed to have fixed it by deleting media storage in my app settings. Hopefully it's fixed for good.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] sirhc:
Everything seems to be working great for me. I did the boot.img method since i'm not S-Off. I'm on 5.0.1 and the only issue i'm having is wifi. It won't scan for anything , and when i turn it on, if i back out of settings and go back to it, it will be turned off again. Data, Calls, SMS work fine

EDIT: Now it doesn't boot up after a reboot smh

Hi,

I'm at the end of my rope...I've been trying to flash the GPE to my HTC One M8. After hundreds of tabs, gigs of downloads, and pulling my hair out, I'm still having issues.

After straying way off the beaten path, I reverted to stock from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2729173 by using Sprint_HTC_One_M8_3.30.651.2_RUU.zip and 3.30.651.2 Full Firmware from OTA (by using the respective RUU and FUU utilities). Then I followed the instructions in the OP (including flashing the boot image from the zip file with fastboot). The rom installed but when I boot my phone it's stuck on the swirling dots animation

I'm S-off, unlocked bootloader, with TWRP recovery. I have superCID(11111111) and my hboot version is 3.19.0.0000. OS is version 3.30.651.2. I apologize for asking but I've scoured the forums and the search function, and after literally a week of fighting with this, I'm running out of options. All the information is just scattered everywhere and sometimes even contradicts itself.

Thanks beforehand for any help
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Have you tried just flashing the rom without flashing the boot.img? Not sure if that still applies with 5.0.1 or not. The reason the op hasn't been updated addressing bugs is because they seem to be so hit and miss and nothing has really been set in stone as for what fixes these issues. Seems to be contained to a device here and there while a lot of people are having no issues. Seeing as youre freshly ruued and with current 4.4.4 firmware id say just clean then flash without the use of boot.img.

If you have problems with wifi or anything else then updrade firmware to that found in DigitalHighs multiple carrier ROM in the Verizon forum.

Edit: also remember inital boot time for lollipop maybe longer then previous releases due to art.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
I actually tried this (I "forgot" to flash boot.img) and I had the same issue. Any ideas? Thanks for trying to help, I'm not exaggerating when I say how long I've been at this.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
What recovery version are you using?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
TWRP 2.8.10, specifically openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-m8_whl.img
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Then that shouldnt be a problem since that's what i used. I know captain recommends his twrp build over the offical twrp because of decrepate source used in the offical so you can try that as well. What steps are you using while/before flashing? Step by step
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] headpiece747:
Just making sure I'm right if you install this rom you will have a 4.4.4 firmware on a 5.0.1 rom? Or is there a 5.0.1 ruu for Sprint?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
The most recent iteration:

1. Download Sprint_HTC_One_M8_3.30.651.2_RUU.zip and 3.30.651.2 Full Firmware from OTA (fastboot flashable): from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2729173

2. Download the RUU and FUU tool from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2729173

3. Boot into fastboot on phone

4. Run FUU tool with mentioned firmware

5. Run RUU tool with Sprint_HTC_One_M8_3.30.651.2_RUU.zip

6. That booted and put me at stock, but my goal is to have GPE (with OTA updates) installed.

7. Download this from OP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95851939534733817

8. Boot to TWRP

9. adb push to /sdcard/Download

10 use "Install" function from TWRP. Install successful

11. flastboot flash boot boot.img (taken from the rom zip file)

12. boot normally, phone stuck in spinning dots animation. (I can restart with power + vol up and I can access fastboot with power + vol down. I can also access TWRP).

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

I'll be honest, I'm not entirely sure. I've done this so many times, the version numbers are starting to blurr together and I would not be surprised if I made some kind of mistake.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Are you wiping before flashing?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
Since my answer is "I'm not sure," that probably means "No." I assumed that a flash overrwrote whatever was there. At least, I thought TWRP wiped before installing a new ROM. However I did not use any wipe commands with fastboot. I *did* use TWRP to wipe cache and davlik.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
You saved the zip to external correct? If so, under wipe in twrp go to advanced wipe options. I normally check everything except for external sd and usb and wipe that way. Youll loose everything on your internal sd but seeing as you just ruued you probably don't have anything that's important on it yet anyway. Just make sure that you dont wipe external because youll delete the zip. This is to be done before flashing the rom, Try that and see if that works this time without boot.img, on intial boot let it go for 5-10 minutes before calling it quits. See if that works and send feedback
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
Wiped and installed (via TWRP)...waiting for it to boot. Will post in about 15 minutes

---------- Post added at 08:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

Progress! Sort of. GPE is now installed and booted...but I have a whole host of other problems. The main one right now is that I don't have any navigation buttons. I don't have home, back, or context. so if I start an app, or even go into settings, I can't back out of it or go back to home or anything.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Yeah that seems to be a known bug, that shows up and very sparatic at that try rebooting the phone and see if nav bars come back
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
Rebooted, still no nav bars. Also my home screen and background are black. I have icons though. Did I do something wrong?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Not that i can tell, and i have no idea why it's not flashing for you. Have you tried flashing the multiplecarrier lolipop rom in the verizon forum? Its pretty much the same rom except for some optional tweaks.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
Is that this thread? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2716306 Will try to flash this one
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Yep that's it, let me know how it goes. Sorry for the hassle I'm totally at lost.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
Was not able to flash the firmware (I got the error FAILED (remote: not allowed) ). Rom installed successfully, boots fine. And...my god I think that finally did it. Navigation bar, the UI is super responsive and snappy. The only quirk I notice so far is that the camera crashes upon opening (I think in ZOE mode?)...

So, can I fix the camera, and more importantly, will this rom get me OTA updates from google?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Zzz73:
go to settings/apps/all and clear data on camera. don't go back to the Zoe mode or it will happen again.

I'm pretty sure you can't get OTA updates while you're using a custom recovery, but i wouldn't bet the farm on it.

good luck.

Z
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
That fixed my camera, thank you! What even IS ZOE mode? Also...if I go back to GPE's stock recovery, will that allow me OTA updates? I don't mind not having a custom recovery I just want updates when they come out so I dont have to do this whole song and dance all over again. If so, where do I get the GPE stock recovery for Lolipop?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
No, you can't get OTA updates. This is a port, which means the files are modified. A stock OTA will not apply. The stock GPE recovery won't even boot on the Sprint variant.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dyslexicfurby:
That might explain some of the trouble I was having. Well fortunately I am happy with my current install...Do you think that eventually there will be some rom or port of a rom to allow the stock GPE recovery to run on the sprint variant?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
No, never. As I said, that's only part of the problem.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
To be fair, for me it works either way. The real question is why doesn't the latest build work for everyone. It makes sense that the framework from the newest works on the older build. There's no reason it shouldn't.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
Huh I'll have to test that one later when I have some more time then
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
For everyone on a working build that can't get the new build working right, this flashable zip will replace the framework with the one from the newest build. It will also delete the telephony database for you so all you have to do is flash and reboot.

Hopefully it will get the ROM mostly working for everyone. I played around with some kernel modifications for camera but had no success. I'll keep at it though.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
This worked for me, running fantastically appreciate it and should update the op
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I updated my post on the first page.

I updated the OP two days ago but it isn't showing up. That's why I've been updating my post instead.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
I went ahead and updated a few things to reflect some of the more recent changes made :D
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Did you see any of the changes I had already made in DevDB?

I changed a bunch of stuff, including changing your first sentence since this is a straight port from the GPE not the Verizon port anymore ;).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
i don't believe so..?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Go to "Edit Project" and see if my changes are there.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
weird they did show up but I couldn't apply it through that, had to edit the post then do it
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I think DevDB is borked.

So the V2 in the OP, is that V1 repacked with the data fix?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] tjeeeeee:
no i think i update the OP to reflect all the changes you made, for a moment the V2 was just the link to your test build 13
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Ah okay. Thanks. Hopefully the ROM will be usable for more people with the latest fix. I made no progress on the camera stuff either. I'm not sure what files even need to be changed.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dandan2980:
I just can't get thus to boot up on my phone just hangs on the boot animation. Strange thing is the first time I flashed it booted a couple days ago and booted in recovery and haven't been able to get it to boot since it happened. Tried again today flashing the latest version test 13 with the framework fix no boot up. Tried wiping caches and reflashing it seems like it wants to boot but the boot animation will be smooth then it pauses and then just continues then pauses like it's lagging
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
You tried downloading V1 and flashing the framework/data fix after initially booting?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dandan2980:
I used latest version (test13) and flashed that with the framework fix in the same session. Test 13 booted for me when you first posted it a couple days ago but I was experiencing a lot of lag so downloaded trickster mod thinking maybe the kernel was stuck on a low setting it said I did not have root permission so I went into recovery flashed su1.99 after rebooting I could not get back into the Rom. So should I flash the latest version from post 78 or V1 link and if I flash v1 link do I need to apply the data fix also.

---------- Post added at 06:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:38 PM ----------

Ok I'm downloading version .1 and see if I can get this working on my phone after reading your reply again I think that is what I need to do
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Test13 doesn't need the framework fix. Those files came from that build.

So you can try flashing V1, booting, and then go back to recovery and flash the framework/data fix.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dandan2980:
Ok trying right now thanks
