[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3fiddy:
Hey guys, sorry for the late response.

I did what you all said and unlocked the bootloader again. And that was it.

After unlocking it everything works normal.

You guys are the best, I knew this is the right place to come :)

Even the Venom ROM is on the phone. Everything else is gone, but the ROM is there.

Alright but I still would like to get the newest firmware for the phone. Could you guys give me a little help with this?

What do I have to do first?

I read a lot about how to do this. But as you can see something still went wrong :/

On the phone is currently Android 4.4.2 and ViperOneM8 1.7.0

First thing I have to do is, to grab a Nandroid Backup with the stock ROM, right?

I did this before, but then I read somewhere that the bootloader has to be locked, or relocked to update the newest stock ROM/ the newest firmware.

So if anyone knows how to do this correctly, please let me know.

Also when I flashed the nandroid backup (my own backup from before I flashed venom) I tried to update the firmware, but it wanted to update the latest Venom update.

Is this considered as normal?

Bootloader version (Hboot) is 3.16.0.0... At least I think this is the right one.

[MENTION=2012476]jkolner[/MENTION]: Didn't know that firewater doesn't work anymore. How long is this?

[MENTION=660462]redpoint73[/MENTION]: Thanks for the heads-up ;) Also I didn't know that there are no RUUs for the european versions. Good to know that now.

Thank you all for your answers:)

EDIT: I just tried to enter the recovery and it worked as well.

Oh and when I wrote above that I flashed the stock nandroid backup and the phone wanted to update the latest venom update, I think it was because the rom was still the Venom Rom, right?

Sure it was a nanroid backup, but the ROM was not the stock ROM? Or am I mix-up something there?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
It sounds like you are trying to return to stock, and install official OTA to update firmware. In that case, unlocked bootloader is OK for OTA (no need to relock). But you need stock ROM and stock recovery.

You are mixing something up. The point of restoring a stock nandroid, is to return to the stock ROM. It sounds like your nandroid is made while on Viper ROM, not stock ROM. Either that, or the nandroid just didn't restore the ROM properly. Make sure "system" is checked on partitions to restore in recovery.

Its been that way for months now. But your hboot version is old; so firewater might work, might not. Worth a few tries; as firewater is free and doesn't take long. If it still fails, you need to use sunshine to s-off.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3fiddy:
Exactly this. Alright, then I read something wrong. I thought to flash the stock ROM you have to have a relocked bootloader.

I'll search a stock ROM and recovery. Hoperfully it will work.

This could be it. I don't know if there was already the Venom ROM in use. Could be.

Okay I'll try it with firewater again.

Thanks for your help:)

EDIT: After I flashed the Nadroid Backup, do I have to wipe something, like Dalvik or anything?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I wipe Dalvik and cache when I flash anything.

Recovery will wipe system as it flashed the ROM. No need to do so manually.

If restoring a nandroid without data partition backed up, you may or may not have to wipe user data. It might not play well with the restored ROM, but it depends on what ROM you are coming from. If error occur, wipe data and restore again.

If you are restoring a nandroid with data partition backup, it will be wiped during restore. No need to do so manually.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3fiddy:
Alright I flashed my own stock nandroid backup. Guess I just read something wrong because I thought it will get the latest Venom Update.

Then I downloaded and installed the latest updates. Now the phone has finally Android 4.4.

After everything went good, I flashed the twrp recovery, made a Backup, rooted the phone, did another backup and flashed the latest Venom ROM.

Before flashing something I wiped everything, like you said.

All is good now.

I think now I can totally forget to gain S-OFF with firewater. But I'll save the link to sunshine. Maybe I'll give it a try :)

Thanks again everyone, couldn't have done it without your help;)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Shainsaw:
Got an HTC One M7 off ebay and it is having issues with IMEI / Dialer.

With stock settings it will not go to dialer screen, and imei wont show, it does show under getvar in fastboot.

build-mode: SHIP

boot-mode: FASTBOOT

commitno-bootloader: dirty-c6bbb6d4

hbootpreupdate: 11

gencheckpt: 0

I have tried several things.

Called AT&T - the IMEI is not blacklisted.

Tried latest RUU for matching CID and phone still gives htcdialer error and reboots randomly.

Tried SF+TeamSeven Kernel same issue. I am trying to S-Off the phone but I dont think that will solve the problem.

With CM11 Rom the phone does not have a reboot problem, but no network or IMEI

I do not know the history of the phone but it does not show sign of damage from a fall.

The phone has no signs that it was opened.

Other problems the phone exhibits are the bottom speaker malfunction (works with pressure over speaker) and the camera has a purple haze when in dark light.

I wonder if maybe it overheated.:(

HTC wants 90$ to repair it so thats out.

Any suggestions?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] PhonePhun:
I have the 8525 and I updated to the new ROM a few days ago. My day and date take up 2 lines across the top now on the today screen whereas it use to take only line across the top. Has anyone else noticed this and is there a way to have it go back to one line?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] kiwikenji:
Same Day and Date display problem

I noticed that too and was wondering the same if anybody else had this problem. At first I thought it might be a compatibilty issue with SPB Pocket Plus. Afterwards I did a hard reset with the default settings and the same double line display of Date and Time appears. It's become pretty frustrating and had to remove the Date and Time all together from the Today Screen. May be someone has a reg edit for this.

Is it possible to downgrade back to the original ROM? My 8525 has locked up a couple times since the upgrade, something that never happened to me before. Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cmalberto:
Interesting comments on the ROM. I too have lockup issues now more than ever. And yes, I understand that you can go back to the OLD rom. I may do that at some point. Not sure the "upgrade" changes are worth the pain I am experiencing with the lockups...looks like I just got locked up trying to synch.

And to your original question...I have two lines too. I guess I like that cause I used the large FONT and this caused the day/date to scroll off of the right hand side.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] PhonePhun:
Bumping this to see if anyone else has found a solution for this.

Try this cab I made http://www.8525software.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,27/func,fileinfo/id,58/

It puts the Date and Time in the top by the speaker and GPRS icon, then go to Today options and do not use the Date on the main screen area.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] hanmin:
try rlToday (search this forum). Ask those skinning guys there to get you a 1 line simple skin. It is easy to make.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] PhonePhun:
Thanks I ended up using the cab that puts the date above the time.

Data its working?
[Moto X Android Development] BMc08GT:
Yes, haven't tested after a data wipe but I would be surprised.
[Moto X Android Development] Marco Lomas:
Thanks a lot! :D downloading right now for test and feedback :)
[Moto X Android Development] zwliew:
Awesome :)
[Moto X Android Development] Marco Lomas:
Well congrats!! Its smooth like hell! Also data working at first boot, ofcourse vídeo problem, but alot better build!
[Moto X Android Development] perfoliate:
Just curious for those of you with video issues. Can you try switching off nuplayer in developer options? On the nexus 4 that was causing us issues for awhile being on by default. Might be worth a try.
[Moto X Android Development] BMc08GT:
:) good to hear. Device tree is getting cleaned up tomorrow so the commits on gerrit can be merged
[Moto X Android Development] BMc08GT:
Nadas. Widevine DRM issue I believe.
[Moto X Android Development] Marco Lomas:
Let me check the nuplayer option, also, documents still fc, on aosp keyboard the sliding write fc, but everything its awesome. The animations look soo good and fluid.
[Moto X Android Development] Imacellist:
sounds like a daily driver for the most part. I'm really tempted by this but need something stable enough for work. Would you say it seems pretty stable thus far?
[Moto X Android Development] Marco Lomas:
Maybe a 80% daily driver for me only about the video problem, but everything else its solid! :)

Edit: only aosp sliding fc. Google keyboard works perfect! :)
[Moto X Android Development] gunnerv:
Downloading as well :D
[Moto X Android Development] Imacellist:
what exactly is the video problem?
[Moto X Android Development] Marco Lomas:
The youtube videos are broken. On grayscale. Also the gallery videos

Edit: nope still broken without Nuplayer
[Moto X Android Development] BMc08GT:
DRM content in YouTube and Play Movies. Due to widevine
[Moto X Android Development] Christian Correia:
was the mistake of silent call corrected?
[Moto X Android Development] zwliew:
If you wait it out a little it goes back to normal. For me, after <1 minute, the videos are fine.

Not necessary with Bluetooth only, I had my Bluetooth running ,I didnt got any reboot.

But it gets randomly rebooted .
[Moto X Android Development] CurbThePain:
Try wiping dalvik cache and cache in the recovery. Its really only a temp fix for reboots and fc's its all because of ART. It isnt really a solid runtime yet. It causes lots of issues. You could even try turning off data and wifi for a couple minutes. It fixed my reboot issues for the most part.

---------- Post added at 10:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 AM ----------

Also for the op. Go looking in the "bacon" source tree(oneplusone). They have fixed the icons in the status bar, the documents force close, and a couple other things we could use.
[Moto X Android Development] Fersparks:
Is ambient display working?
[Moto X Android Development] fakieskr8333:
It only works for me when notifications first come in. When I pickup the phone it sometimes lights up but that's only like 10% of the time.

Hit or miss for me. When enabled, the lock screen shows for a fraction of a second when you turn the screen off.

My phone froze yesterday, but when I hard reset the device, the phone wouldn't boot, not even the animation was showing for about 10 minutes, no matter what i tried. Flashing the ROM again resolved the problem.

[MENTION=4919097]BMc08GT[/MENTION] the youtube has no bug it works fine for me u just need to clear app data and update it and it will work fine with no issues

this was the problem on some of the 4.4.4 roms also ...!

and just a minor request can you fix the screen recording bug..? screen recording by any app doesnt work .

it says some file missing in data/data....

and thanks for your work waiting for the next build with fixed documents app..! thats a bit annoying
[Moto X Android Development] Marco Lomas:
I can screen recorder with the new ilimited recorder app on xda apps, its because the old recorder apps arent compatible with lolipop :)

HEADS UP

Is it heads up working? Not for me with an last version of whatsapp and there is no option to activate un settings.
[Moto X Android Development] fakieskr8333:
Heads up is specific to certain apps, I think they have to be enabled by the Dev of the app. They work for hangouts and phones calls for me.
[Moto X Android Development] Josh16061:
...I have yet to see any.
[Moto X Android Development] Gafanhotz:
You don't set heads up, it's defined by the priority of the notifications. Also, Whatsapp wasn't updated fot Lollipop yet.

---------- Post added at 05:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:18 PM ----------

That app wasn't updated for Lollipop/ART too, send an mail to the app dev.
[Moto X Android Development] ZOTON:
Thanks for the answers!

I could not belive that whatsapp was still not updated for this feature
[Moto X Android Development] Imacellist:
It is up to the dev. He is working hard to make this build functional, and if he wants to spend time fixing an issue with whatsapp (something they should fix themselves) then it is his prerogative. Saying things like this is not helpful. The problem is known, and it will be fixed once he gets to it.

Titanium Backup is not restoring apps... Any fix?
[Moto X Android Development] lukaop:
I had this problem, switched to SuperSU and Titanium worked again.

I've tried to install supersu via Play but I got an error...

How you did that?

EDIT: I'll try to flash the latest supersu...
[Moto X Android Development] lukaop:
Even Titanium 6.2 didn't work for me, but flashing SuperSU did the trick.
[Moto X Android Development] Gafanhotz:
He wasn't talking about the rom, but the whatsapp not being updated by their devs.

Also yeah, there's a bug with whatsapp voice but [MENTION=4919097]BMc08GT[/MENTION] already merged it's fix.

No, the app works fine. Its just the scanner you plug into it. Hence my thought it was related to the mic bug. (Plugs into the headphone jack)

Okay I've I been having a problem where if I make a phone call It dials but I don't hear it ring, the person on the other line can hear me though. I also had this problem on CM11 a reboot would fix it but it doesn't seem to work at all now. Xt1053 tmo. Also the google messaging app would stop responding and I couldn't send texts while on Bluetooth until I rebooted seems it stopped working after making a phone call. Incoming calls work fine.
[Moto X Android Development] BMc08GT:
Build will be available tomorrow.
[Moto X Android Development] MikeyNick:
Truly impressive

This is impressively stable!!

I've tested the following to work: Data, wifi, bluetooth, connecting to moto 360, smart lock with said moto 360, phone calls (after toggling speaker on/off), camera, HD recording, SMS, MMS. Installed SuperSU beta 2.25 and titanium backup can restore.

Here are the bugs I discovered:

1) When sending MMS, if you click "Choose a picture", it'll say "Documents has crashed" and won't let you add a picture. You can however take a picture at the moment of the MMS and that works fine.

2) AOSP keyboard force closes when using gesture typing (To note, Swype works fine with gesture typing)

That's it so far! I haven't played with anything else yet, currently busy at AnDevCon (but all the Android L buzz made me too impatient to wait for OTA, so here I am :D )

I will continue to update as I test additional things. If a logcat of either of the two bugs I ran into will be useful, let me know and I'll try and upload some later tonight.

EDIT: Just to note, I did a FULL clean wipe, including internal storage, and installed from TWRP 2.8.1.0. I did not have to make any APN changes, it just works!
[Moto X Android Development] HeroOfTime:
It's been noted a few times, but the fix is to toggle speaker phone on and off when you make or receive the call. That will fix it, but it must be performed on a per call basis.
[Moto X Android Development] tekanina:
Thank you that works. I receive calls fine, I just find it strange that I had this problem on CM11 as well wonder if its the same fix. Been driving me crazy for months.

[Moto X Android Development] dray_jr:
well i have been playing this this rom for about two hours so far and i love the way L looks very clean and very snappy. but i have been runing into a couple FC issues. one of them being Contacts.

When i try to open a individual Contact to edit it or just view it the contacts app FC, which this is frustrating when trying to edit a contacts info or add a new contact.

i was able to get Titanium Backup work, I can freeze and uninstall apps but when it comes to restoring apps with data it just sits at the screen that says Restoring App+Data with the app name. But if i install the app from the market place first then restore just the data it works but when i tried to open my Battle.Net Authenticator App it states that it can't find a network connection. the only way to fix this was to reinstall the app and start it from scratch.

Great work so far. Better than CM11 was for me in all but one area. Curious about "letting the battery settle." On T-Mobile with decent 4G I am seeing pretty extreme battery drain even in the background with screen off. Kill mobile data and just use wifi and all is good.

USB Audio doesn't work.

It recognizes the USB headset (Siberia V2 Heat Orange), but keeps on playing by the phone speaker.

If I remove the OTG cable, it stops playing the music just as if it was playing by the headset.

WhatsApp audio is also messed up, keeps on switching the end of the message by the start, don't know how to explain.

Could someone also post the changelog between the two versions? (cm-12-20141117 and cm-12-20141118)

Ive said it before but ill repeat myself. I run ghost roms. They run flawlessly except for the difference in hardware and software buttons. There aren't anymore msm_8960 builds. If i want to run a current custom rom on my ultra it has to be a ghost rom. Even the recoveries for the ultra/maxx are built for ghost.

To the person who sent me the fix, i had found that one before but the article says its for 4.4, not 5.0 and i was uncertain of its compatibility and hoping someone could clarify. Yes i spent more than your 15second google search looking for an answer, specifically in these forums.
[Moto X Android Development] Henrique Belaz:
I had flashed a zip from some guys who had told it would solve this issue, but no luck at all.

Idk if it was because I flashed right after flashing the rom, because it might need the app already installed
