Hey guys!

So, I got sick of not having a simple, stock, GPE ROM comparable with my device!

I knew a little about porting roms from the UL to the Sprint variant of the HTC One, as per the almost complete port of the L Preview from it's current state to our radio (Thanks [MENTION=2849215]manups4e[/MENTION] !!! You probably helped me directly the most, although I can't count out [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] [MENTION=5242870]ANDR01DN00B[/MENTION] ( hate typing that username) or [MENTION=3500210]tiny4579[/MENTION])

As for actual work on this, I want to thank [MENTION=4572763]artur0588[/MENTION] for the TWRP-ready version of GPE!

you need to do this for all the set_metadata statement.

hope this helps

That actually pointed me in the right direction, although I looked, and the ROM I am basing this off of had a working script.

My main issue now is that it seems to kernel panic right after the splash screen (Black screen, then reboot

I'm gonna try modding the stock kernel instead of using the kernel from another ROM

Edit: Pfft, as if that worked

I probably need to re-look at the libs I dropped where and steal them from a Sense ROM instead of CM

Is the kernel meant for Sprint?? If not then kernel will not boot.

I'll reflash and grab it from t recovery when I get a chance
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ajbiz11:
AFAIK CAF kernels will BOOT on all variants

I don't see why Sense/GPE would be any different

But I did try with both the 4.4.x kernel included in the other GPE ROM for the SPR and the kernel for the ROM I based from, with m7.fstab edits

try this kernel

note : only zImage and modules.

Zip fails during installation. Reading the recovery log it looks as though system never gets mounted properly.

Edit.... Here are some snippets from recovery log

mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system at /system: Device or resource busy

Then at the time of actual failure

minzip: Can't create containing directory for "/system/usr/icu/icudt51l.dat": I/O error

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ajbiz11:
I actually just was going to report that

And, if you reboot, it seems to not be able to mint system unless you format it

Not sure why

The script should be fine at this point

It just mounts system by the partition name like in the L preview port

Edit: Although nothing should be happening, I'll try unmounting it first

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "m7wls" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "m7wls");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
symlink("Roboto-Bold.ttf", "/system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf");

Is it possible, that because I read the prop, it mounts /system? I thought that would be /recovery

The more I think about this, the more I realize that I haven't modded the framework at all, which makes me think that RIL won't even work.

Although [MENTION=3585174]gruesomewolf[/MENTION] you'd probably know better than I
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gruesomewolf:
Well I was able to get a successful flash by adding the unmount to system before the format to system. I adjusted your updater to look like this

unmount("/system");

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");

However.... It still fails to get past splash. I'm at work, so as far to much debugging is concerned I'm not able to do that ATM. As far as framework adjustments are concerned.... It's not fully needed....I was able to get data on sprint even using stock gpe telephony. But you will have to fix your boot.img/kernel issues before you even start to worry about that.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ajbiz11:
I honestly don't have a Linux machine where I am, so getting logs Isn't exactly possible

Lemme see if I can post the boot.IMG that was at least getting past the splash, but not quite to the boot animation

Read near the end of this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2782159&page=20

So far, this is the only method we know of to downgrade on higher firmware versions.

However, keep in mind that the instructions were written for up to 13.3.2.6/14.3.2.6. As such, it may very well brick your device.

Perhaps [MENTION=6046812]kaeru00[/MENTION] may have some input on this.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] keymao:

No business case for deploying a new branch of FireOS to a discontinued product line (3rd gen HDX).
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] AlexZap:
I agree, and I know that the official word from Amazon is that we won't get it, but I didn't thin we would ever see an update from 4.5.5.1, and here we are.

I just wish they would be out with a new hdx. The new tablets just don't stack up. And I wish that since this is a discontinued device, they would release a n official bootloader unlock.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] DB126:
4.5.5.2 patches vulnerability(s) that permitted device to be rooted. Root is not a good thing when you consider Amazon's business model. Fire devices exist solely to drive additional revenue from Amazon's retail properties (store, video, etc). A rooted device likely won't be used for that. How many people install the Play Store or a custom rom so they can buy more stuff from amazon.com?

I doubt we will see an HDX (high end tablet) equivalent anytime soon. Those devices generally don't attract the demographic that responds to Amazon's marketing machine. Also note the lone HDX survivor (4th gen Saturn) remains tightly locked down. If Amazon does refresh the tablet lineup this year the new offerings will likely be tough to mod.

Is it possible to downgrade From 4.5.5.5.2 Tod 4.5.5.5.q? I miss Google cast
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] DB126:
Not without root or a specially formatted downgrade image; neither are available at present.

A risky option is a rollback to 3.2.8 followed by a controlled upgrade to 4.5.2 or 4.5.5.1, both of which are rootable. Once rooted you can block OTA to prevent further unsolicited upgrades from Amazon.

Advise close guidance if you go this route. A small mistake can lead to an unrecoverable brick.

New build of 4.5.5.2 for Apollo

still show 4.5.5.2 as the latest.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] ukegste:
OTA

Sorry I received it OTA, Silk reports the OS as Android 4.4.3, KFTHWI Build/HTU84M (this means nothing to me).

The update said it included 'general improvements and performance enhancements'.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] draxie:
That's what I suspected...

Could you check the version and date under Settings / Device Options / System Updates?

Mine (which also has the same build ID 'KTU84M ', but 4.5.5.2) shows the following:

If you know your way around 'adb', the output of the following commands would be even more helpful:

adb shell getprop ro.build.fingerprint
adb shell getprop ro.build.version.name
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] ukegste:
Oh.. I could have sworn the Build ID was HTU84M earlier but it is KTU84M (which I believe is the same ID listed on the first post for the release of 4.5.5.2).

How did you get Settings > Device Options > System Updates to list the build date? Mine states 'Your device is running Fire OS 4.5.5.3 Learn More' 'Installed Friday, 13 October 2017 00:49 BST'

I've never used adb but should be able to get to grips with it but I'll have to read up and get back to you.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] draxie:
Hmm...

I didn't. That's what it shows by default on that version.

Perhaps, this difference is one of those 'enhancements'

I scared this is reaction to my post "It's easy to root 4.5.5.2". Now they probably stop the root with Kingroot.

Unlikely

I seriously doubt that. See this post.

I find it more likely that it's a fix for [URL="https://www.krackattacks.com]KRACK[/URL].

Haha...that also means Amazon still support such old device.

I have HD8 2017 now but it's extremely slow compared to my Kindle hdx Thor. Typing this with Thor.

It is hidden on their servers. This is not exactly a public release as of yet.

what's the current Firmware version for the 8.9"?

I just downloaded Update 3.2.6

So Cool ! I'll take a look very soon ! :)

Crap, i can't boot the kernel with an unlocked BL :/

I guess there's some change in the boot.img (dtb information?) preventing it from booting with an old bootloader ..

If i don't find a solution it will be hard to search for root and work on a custom rom. Maybe [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION] will have more luck.

I'll take a look once the Apollo sangria update becomes available...
