[Verizon HTC One (M8)] digitalhigh:
I have had nothing but joy when running this ROM. Chrome Beta is know to be a bit pokey here - I have a mod in installer to delete BrowserProxyProvider, which seems to help some. Even more, I have the AOSP 5.0 browser included as well.

For people with battery issues - again, I'm not sure why you're having problems. I use my phone regularly for mail, messaging, navigation, music streaming, and reading news sites/xda, and I have no significant drain issues.

I'm not saying this because it's my ROM...I'm saying this because it's literally the best thing I've ever ran on a phone, and I don't want others to think this is the norm. As others have said...definitely let it settle out for a few days. I've read a bit that the new battery savings features were adaptive, so I'm guessing that has something to do with it.

Also, as has been iterated, having the latest 4.4.4 firmware is key...and I'm guessing that having the 5.0 bits flashed will only improve the hardware's ability to cooperate with any new magic in the battery regard.

I've been running this for several days now without wiping data on the L firmware...and as I've said...it's buttery smooth and battery is phenomenal. I even went without charging it Friday night, and made it until bedtime on Saturday with 10% left...and this was streaming music and youtube to my Nexus Player on Friday night for a good hour.

So yeah...definitely give it some time. I think you'll find it's well worth it. Sense ain't got nuthin on this except bloat.

I did it through terminal emulator and saved it as a text file would that work?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pstrang:
The built-in Portable Wi-Fi hotspot seems to be working with mine (latest version as of 11/22). You may want to do all the usual things such as wiping dalvik/cache reboot, then reinstalling firmware, and ultimately perhaps a clean reinstall, etc.

Any 3rd party apps (which I like much better because of the feedback they provide) would need to be Lollipop compatible. Can anyone recommend one?

In response to your "bypass hack", the GPE does not block per the VZW provisioning check. It should work.

Not trying to be a total noob but how do i flash this? it doesn't say anything in the post about custom recovery or needing to be rooted. I have verizon m8 on 4.4.4 s-off and unlocked boot loader but no root and no custom recovery. any help is greatly appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Some Tech Noob:
Yep, I'm going to let it settle for a few days once I get this browser thing somewhat fixed(if possible). I have the 5.0 firmware, I believe.

If I run the ROM installer again, is it possible for me to only install AOSP & remove BrowserProxyProvider? Sorry if this is a noob question, as the HTC One M8 is my first android(was on iOS before), and this is my first experience with flashing a rom.

Portable Hotspot works just fine. for me as well Of course, just make sure your data is on lol.

For those having issues with chrome, try cm browser. Its fast as heck with absolutely no lag on this rom
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
I'll pm it to you
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bill3508:
Mine was doing the same thing yesterday. A reboot fixed it for now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tuxattack80:
Yeah it seems to have fixed mine as well for the time being
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DevenStonow:
So far this is running great, but a reboot just now made my battery drop ~10%. Should I be concerned?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
U can grab the aosp browser here and just install per the instructions on the op here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2945436
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mlin:
So I've noticed more battery drain than "normal" since I've been running this the past couple of days. However, I also booted into my stock ROM and the battery seemed to be draining faster than normal too. I reverted to my previous firmware and am looking forward to seeing if it makes a difference. I'm guessing it will because its the only thing in common that changed between the two ROMs. I'll report back in a couple of days to see if the old, official firmware improves things.

Anybody else run Gsam? I can't figure out why my "system is taking up about 40% of my battery. It was usually around 15% on kit kat.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jshap70:
Okay, I think that clears things up. Time to take the plunge.

Serious props to you ( [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION] ) by the way. Amazing job with your quality of work here as well as your interactions on this page.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] NoFanboy:
Amazing how many people are making bold battery claims without letting the new software calibrate with the battery for a few days.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Some Tech Noob:
ES File Manager can't seem to create a folder called "Browser" in the app directory.

Hmm...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dcox28:
I think the battery life is phenomenal. Best battery life I've ever had on any version of Android or any ROM.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gonzo237:
Having pretty amazing battery life
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] DevenStonow:
How are you guys using your phones that you get such ridiculous battery life?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
Great ROM. Great development efforts. Data encryption enabled or disabled or not applicable on this 5.0 ROM? If enabled, it would explain the significantly lower performance benchmark scores (e.g., Nexus 6). This same 4.4.4 GPE ROM performed at 27000 and 47000 in Quadrant and Antutu, respectively, Verizon HTC M8. If data encryption is not applicable in this 5.0 ROM, any theories regarding the significantly lower benchmarks?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 09eric09:
How much Screen On Time are you getting?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dcox28:
2 hours screen on time at the moment. Slight light usage day today as I was traveling but when I'm not using the phone that battery just don't drop.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 09eric09:
Just so weird that I lost about an hour and a half screen on time with lollipop.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
Oh, definitely. I might jump in later tonight, but I've got some time set aside tomorrow afternoon for it. I don't think I've had a serious problem with a single build that wasn't my own fault, though I skipped a couple.

Lightly. I understand for some people, the smartphone is the only Internet access you have, so you're on it a lot more. For me, when I'm at home or at my main job, I have a computer with Internet access. I don't really look up a lot of NSFW stuff, so what I do online can be done at work. I'm cleared with my people on what I do. Reading news, interacting with folks on tech forums. I use PortableApps' stuff on a portable hard drive, they don't want me installing stuff, so I don't. When I'm at home or work, my phone sits nearby or in my pocket.

For most apps, notifications are turned off. If someone wants to get up with me, they can call, text, or hit me up on Facebook Messenger (yes, I use it and no, I don't dread it) or Hangouts. All those go straight through. But Facebook tags, mentions, and the like? I don't see that until I actually open the bloody app. My wife's always getting pestered with likes and tags and such. No way, not for me. I'm also not much of a mobile gamer. I have Piano Tiles and 2048 and a couple emulators. Oh, and a Qix clone. Might have Sudoku or Mahjongg on a given day, might not. And Monument Valley. But that's just beautiful.

When I do use it, I expect it to look as nice as the exterior, and be snappy (it has a damn quad core, my gaming rig is still a dual FFS). This ROM is that. Like DH said, best ROM that's been on the phone... Though I also have to give props to UnSense. Sense that looks like GPE? Pure wizardry. But still KitKat, and I'm done with Android 4.x. When all the ROMs are running 5.0, I doubt I'll stick with GPE alone, but, who knows. One can't say. Your favorite ROM on one version might not even be good on the next version. I remember a 4.1 ROM called Illusion. 4.2 came along and, I don't want to speak falsely, but I think the team broke up and then some other group picked it up, but it wasn't the same. I used DH's 4.4.2 GPE shortly after I got this phone, and I moved on from that. Don't recall why. Now it's my ROM of choice, albeit on the next version. What I use may change like the weather, but I appreciate the work of all the developers. It's an ongoing 'conversation,' you never know which way it'll go. Just enjoy the ride (and, when and as you're able, tip the drivers).
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Some Tech Noob:
Probably a bit off topic but:

I thought the YouTube app may have been fixed by flashing this ROM.

Nope, YouTube still being dumb, both on Sense 6 and here as well. (status bar & home buttons don't completely hide. Usually happens after watching a couple a videos)

Just wondering if anyone gets this. All-in-one gestures has been my workaround so far.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] baldpenguin2:
I always have too. After 4-5 videos or when coming back to YouTube from multitasking. When I was running Paranoid I could just force immersive.. Now I'm stuck.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] phenix14:
Try tapping on the screen once or twice to bring up then hide the YouTube controls. Always works for me. BTW this happens on multiple devices to me so it seems to be an app thing...

Anyways, this has been an awesome ROM. It's been absolutely smooth for me, and no issues at all, at least that affect me.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] maxpower7:
I'm pretty sure that's an issue with the app itself. I've had that with multiple roms and devices.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Some Tech Noob:
If you're rooted(of course you're rooted), you can use all-in-one gestures to make a corner or side gesture to force immersive mode.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures&hl=en

Tried, didn't work for me.

ROM's been great besides chrome and battery. Of course, as previously stated, I shouldn't judge the battery by it's day-one performance.

Good to know. Kind of annoying that Google hasn't fixed it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] baldpenguin2:
How is the battery hit?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Some Tech Noob:
I wouldn't like to state just yet. Ask me in a week's time as the battery and ROM settle in.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
Not sure if this is something that [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION] can fix, but using Textra, if you get a message and the screen is off, when you go to turn on the screen, it has a flickering panic attack for about 15-30 seconds. I assume it may have to do with the native lockscreen notification fighting with Textra's own chat heads type of pop up.

No real big deal, just reporting in. In the meantime, I'll see if I can maybe disable the chat head popup from Textra, that may bandaid it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
That seems like an issue the app dev should fix, if it is indeed an incompatibility with the native Lollipop notification system.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] aqhilles:
I'm using textra as well and have not seen that issue. I have the notifications when screen is off set to "off". Also, the " turn screen on when a notification arrives" set to off, under system settings.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
Just changed the settings for floating notification to off, that should do the trick (hopefully).

Even after a wipe and clean install, I am having trouble syncing my phone to my car. It will work for media, but not phone.

I'll try my wife's phone this evening to rule out possible hardware issues with the car...

My bluetooth is working fine with my car, and my Beats..It is not the ROM's fault...Maybe update the firmware for your radio?

Just weird because it worked fine for three days. But, Ford Sync is kinda known for somewhat flaky behavior. Still, gonna test with my wife's phone and see if there are any updates for the car stereo firmware.

Does anyone else have problems installing apps that aren't on the play store? I tried installing betterbatterystats and on the app installer I could not press install, however I could press cancel same thing happened with Amazon appstore. I have install from unknown sources checked so not sure what other setting I maybe missing.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Using Lux? Look for the "tapjacking" option in SuperSU.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
Yes, it's definitely checked. Actually, I was in the middle of a phone call on bluetooth when it originally disconnected, and I have not had a successful phone reconnect since.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tlegower:
I'm having the opposite problem. My phone will connect to my LG Tones even when they're powered off. All music and phone calls will try to go to the Tones and i can't uncheck phone or media in the Bluetooth menu. I either have to turn off Bluetooth completely or forget the device after each use. Very annoying.

No Data on eHRPD

I am on Sprint and on further investigation it appears the real issue is that I have no data connection on eHRPD. If it am actually connected to EVDO or LTE it works fine. I know this has been an issue in the past with GPE. Any ideas for a fix?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
Hmm... Tested my friends Galaxy S4 and it synced just fine, phone and all.

I don't mind trying a wipe and clean install again, because it worked fine for a few days.

That said, what kind of testing can I do to verify that I don't have a hardware problem with the phone?

I may try another ROM just to rule that out, but I'm too spoiled with this ROM for that to last for long ;)

Just a heads up, I can't seem to get miracast streaming to work. I'm running the latest build with the updated firmware. It initiates the connection but fails somewhere along the way. This is with a netgear push2tv. Everything else is amazing so far. HDMI output via the MHL jack is working.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
Thought I replied already, but can't find my post regarding Bluetooth issues.

Tested my car with a friend's Galaxy S4 and it synced just fine with phone and media, which rules out the car as being the issue.

Not blaming the rom either, but I want to try another clean flash and test again. Failing that, I'll try another ROM to troubleshoot the phone hardware to make sure the Bluetooth chipset didn't just die on me.

Is there anything I can do to pull a log file that may help me figure out what happened with my Bluetooth since it did work previously?

Thanks

Hey guys, I've been away for about a week and well there is over 100 new pages in the main thread and I don't think anyone could blame me for not wanting to go through the mind f*** from reading 100 pages when I could just ask here and get a short response.

Sooo my questions are is the ROAMING problem fixed? Is the Chrome/Facebook/app switcher/etc lag fixed? Is slow wifi/wifi cutting out even after updated firmware fixed? Is there any new problems from the new builds that wasn't on the previous builds that I should know about before attempting any updates? Also what about problems I'm not thinking of at the moment? Are they fixed and if so could someone remind me of what they are?

If they aren't fixed in the main first page then could someone please tell me if their is a fix for any non officially fixed problems? (i.e temp fixes like switching to LTE instead of Global)

Also sorry if these are stupid, I don't like asking dumb questions but like I said i've been out of the loop for quite some time and I have more to catch up on than I expected lol. I'm actually still running the 11/14 build with some guys prop/framework and the WiFi fix firmware (original with all firmware and 5.0 wifi n hboot).
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] asap marcus:
I came from the stock sense 4.4.2 then I flashed the 4.4.4 gpe rom to get this rom and then I flashed it and then when I reboot its stuck on a bootloop and I have no wifi. Someone else told me to try putting the firmware into a sd card the going in to the bootloader the choosing hboot but errors came up. So every time I want to try and fix it by booting the phone normally I have to reflash the rom and it takes a long time. I someone could help me I would appreciate it alot.

The ROM works on AT&T. But your problem is you need to update your firmware.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] emmittobie:
I'm sorry to hear that it's not working for you. Did you just transfer the two files from the Sense ROM? I think some people had luck doing it this way. I actually took those two files and incorporated it into a zip and flashed it through recovery. It worked for me as I have been using the GPS.

Just to give everyone an update, the build I am running from 11/21 seems to be flawless at this time.

I use just about every feature and live on my phone, I have not seen any bugs on this build. knock on wood

For anyone who has been following the Bluetooth fiasco I was posting about, it turned out to be a hardware problem with the phone. Had the same problem even on stock rooted factory ROM, so I have a replacement phone on the way now. Just gotta lock my phone, unroot, and go on with life.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 09eric09:
Looks like I'm gonna try a factory reset to see if it helps my battery drain. What's the best way to perform a factory reset? Should I use stock recovery?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sabres032:
You can just FDR from within your current recovery. Personally I would flash stock recovery and FDR that way. That will also reset the NV partitions to out of the box, clearing out any corrupt radio data. That's what I did and the 11/22.01 version is working flawlessly. Just remember the first few days the battery will take a hit while the software and apps settle in. Best advice I can give is just run your device as normal. Let the battery drain to below 5% and fully charge to 100% without interruption so the device can learn your usage patterns. This is what I've done since Saturday night when I flashed the ROM and I'm getting about 24 hours on battery with over eight hours awake time and over four hours screen on time.

Edit: Also remember Lollipop runs ART and most apps are not able to support that runtime yet. Google search a list of ART compatible apps because one you have installed may not be playing nice, causing battery drain.
