Update Manually

I was too facing the same issue. Just download the update and flash manually through recovery but I wouldn't recommend it as when I did so the rom upgraded to V3.2 :) and the Play Store & Services started FCing:silly:
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] Vicky Sekhri:
Android L Launcher is good, but

If i want to use the default stock launcher for canvas 4 what to do ?

I really need this sorted out. Its stock rom so atleast stock launcher should come with it rather than L launcher, or even if L launcher is better there should be no need of removing the stock launcher,

PLS PROVIDE A SOLUTION FOR THIS
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] gamerboy_010:
Copy the stock launcher from stock rom. Put it in system/app/.. Chqnge the permission to r-w-r-r. Reboot and enjoy.. U can also install stock launcher and normal app..

great rom

great rom working fine
[Micromax Canvas 4 A210] Vicky Sekhri:
Great Work ! Just as it syas.... BUT

I flashed the ROM and afterwards the

manual update v1.2

All the features working well and smooth just like it should run in stock v3

but after update v1.2, the stock default launcher is missing and is replaced by L launcher. What if I need to use the stock launcher of Canvas 4 ?

How do I switch the launcher ? Have u removed the stock launcher ? If yes, then how to find the APK of it so as to install it again and whats the procedure ?

---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:47 PM ----------

How to copy stock launcher from stock ROM as I have already updated it and the stock launcher is gone. Does it mean that u are telling to flash the whole ROM again, and before updating to v1.2, we have to save that stock launcher APK at some other place ?

Thats a very long and hectic procedure considering I have a lot of apps and I have to reinstall them all in new rom just for getting stock launcher ?

Welcome to the home of

Digitalhigh GPE - The ORIGINAL GPE for HTC M8

(often imitated, never duplicated!)

Hi! I'm Digitalhigh, and welcome to this Q&A / Off topic thread thread.

My masterpiece rom can be found here​
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ludeboy:
I've been quiet too because this ROM is perfect for me lol.

I have a challenge for you all though. VVM. And don't tell me to use YouMail because I already know how its "better". I have my reasons for needing Verizon's VVM.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
[Q]Is there an advanced wipe I need

First I would like to apologize to Digital High and the moderators for my silly questions.

In the OP there was a link for firmware and a message that you should try with 4.4.4 first then if it does not work go to 5.0.1( I did not know which version was linked as the name of the file does not give it away but assumed it was 5.0.1). I tried it first which worked but no boot animation, WiFi and could not reboot correctly.

Being that I was running Digital High's 4.4.4 GPE from his thread to a T, I installed the firmware that he had linked. I then within TWRP 2.8.1 I clicked wipe and then slide to wipe (Factory reset it says at the top then data/cache/dalvik). I then installed the ROM.

I then ready a post that the newest firmware was under this thread :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723159

but I ignored per OP guidance.

When the HTC Screen does come up it goes away after a few minutes and is on a lock screen. I did not consider this to be stuck.

I reinstalled and when prompted in Aroma I select "No" the process finished and pushed back to recovery, I hit restart.

Device was at HTC screen (btw the HTC developmental red text is still there gravy right?)for about five minutes, no boot animation, then the android lock screen appears.

I also tried flashing the firmware listed in the link above but get I get 42 custom ID fail. My CID is set to GOOGL001 so I am not sure what the issue is.

Is there an advanced wipe I need to try or a specific firmware I need to flash and then re flash this one? I am up for trying anything to get this working. I have three friends who are looking to do this and donate if it works well but I still can't get my test device figured out.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Are you saying you have a Google Play Edition device? Or did you change the CID to reflect that? You need to install the latest firmware for whatever variant you actually have.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
You see that is confusing because you just asked me a question.

I have a Verizon HTC M8 that was running 4.4.4. GPE. I want to got to 5.0.1. Maybe I need some CID clarification but everyone so far has said that for GPE roms you need GOOGL001 vs having the VZW based CID.

Moderators, is there a way to move this the Q and A section like all of my posts without having to repost and also delete them from this thread to free up space or whatnot?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I meant the Q&A thread for the ROM, but I guess those aren't necessarily ROM questions. This works, I guess.

EDIT: Actually, the Q&A thread for the ROM would be better - this will probably get lost here.

---------- Post added at 01:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------

You are confused.

The only reason you would change your CID is if you were doing a full GPE conversion by flashing an RUU. That's not what you're doing here. You need to change your CID back, and flash the latest full Verizon 4.4.4 firmware. Not having that flashed is the root of your issue.

P.S. There is a "Q&A" tab on the ROM thread, along the top. All you had to do is reply to my question there, and I would see it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
Sorry, I did not know that. Generally I think people panic when they need help and may not see what is right in front of them.

Is this the current VZW firmware? (Under 4.4.4 Zip)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723159

Also I believe if I understand you right I need to change my CID to VZW__001, flash VZW firmware, then install GPE ROM? or do you need to change the CID back to GOOGL001 after the firmware update (VZW firmware) to get GPE ROM to go through?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
You don't need to change the CID back after flashing the firmware. Your other steps are correct.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
Alright.

Would I need to do this from fastboot flash zip or fastboot oem rebootRUU then flash?

I tried the fastboot flash zip with the updated firmware in the fastboot.exe folder and I get (remote: not allowed).

C:\Users\dgreen\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash zip 3.28

.605.4-firmware.zip

I also tried it after running fastboot oem rebootRUU and it said:

That is where I got the CID questions from after looking into the 42:custom id check fail and I did not change the MID so I thought it was irrelevant.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Sorry, I see my post was stated incorrectly.

You don't need to change the CID BACK at the end of the process. As I previously stated, your CID should reflect your actual variant, so that first step is correct and the most important. Just don't change it back at the end. Sorry for the confusion.

And your second process is the correct one.

EDIT: I updated my post to avoid further confusion in case anyone else reads this.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
This is where I need help clarifying what I have done. I also read another one of your threads and believe that I may have found the issue but please help clear things up.

I converted to GPE during 4.4 KitKat by following Digital High's writeup. I believe you told another user that you would need to go back to sense layout due to space requirements.

Knowing that information what are my next steps?

CID(VZW__01 or GOOGL001)?

Firmware (Flash the newest Verizon stock one then what, leave, update to 5.0.1)?

ROM(Install stock image then do 5.0.1 GPE?

I am not concerned with any data or backing up.

I am very literal and do not like to leave room for me to misinterpret anything.

Thanks BTW! I really appreciate it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Flashing a GPE ROM is NOT the same as converting to GPE. [MENTION=3400685]digitalhigh[/MENTION] doesn't have a write-up for converting to GPE of which I'm aware.

Change to the Verizon CID.

Flash the Verizon 4.4.4 firmware.

Flash GPE ROM.

That's it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Neo:
Thread now linked to the Official DevDB Project.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
Thank You so much!

I just wanted to follow up and say that it is working now with the boot animation. I would like to mention that there should be instructions about the carrier agnostic lollipop driver option as this is not explained well. I took it as though it is the new 5.0.1 firmware and I checked the box.

I was also receiving a message prior about Dolby Digital stopped working right after boot up on welcome screen. I figure in case anyone else runs into this issue it will an indication of what went awry.

I cannot thank you guys enough. Really was game changer for me today! Let me know how I can help contribute to the XDA-Way.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
The Carrier-agnostic firmware IS the 5.0.1 firmware. But the OP specifically states that you must already be updated to your carrier's latest 4.4.4 firmware before flashing the ROM. I'm not sure what the confusion is?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Hephaestus88:
When going through Aroma there is a check box to install this however it is deselected by default. There is not instruction to check this box or not and who should check other than him saying that try it one way first and then another way if it doesn't work.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
And those are the correct instructions . . . so again, I'm :confused:. Some people need it, others don't. If everything is working without it, then don't bother with it. If it's not, then try it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ironbesterer:
It does, it's just finicky. What I did was uninstall updates and then reinstalled them. Then it successfully updated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] furious78:
I'm on VZW. I was running the new firmware and seeing the contact photos when people called. After reverting back to 4.4.4 to troubleshoot a BT issue, the contact photos stopped working. A reboot didn't help. Just flashed back to the 5.0.1 firmware, and contact photos are working on calls again. Very strange!

edit* - just stops working after a while...

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] shadolis:
Fantastic work! I've been keeping up with your ROM, but have yet to install it because of the whole Xposed thing. The main thing that's holding me back, and although small, is I can't use the Flat Style Module... specifically the feature to move signal icons to the left on the statusbar, and display notifications as a "notifications count." This isn't necessarily a feature request, but do you see this as being possible? IMO, it's seriously the best way to clean up the statusbar.

I get the same thing when I put my phone in my shirt pocket. As the previous person said, face the screen away from your body as the heat will activate your screen. After that, whatever is touched next turns on. I actually had YouTube play a video once.

Hey there,

So I've had the 12/11/14 build since 12/11 and it'd been going great for me. Finally figured out a GPS fix and everything was looking smooth until text messages stopped going through. It's on an off, some go through, others don't. MMS does fine I believe, but not SMS. Doesn't look like Verizon is at fault for this, just because no one else has reported the same issue, but I won't leave that out of the question. Anyway, anyone know a solution to this? I tried 2 different texting apps. I clean flashed the ROM when I flashed it. Also, I did search both threads quite extensively, so if someone has already mentioned the fix, then I apologize!

Here's any details that might help you help me:

Verizon

12/11/14 Build

Clean flash

Standard Kernal

5.01 Firmware (Selected Carrier agnostic firmware then opened in HBoot)

Anyway, thank you!

I dirty flashed 12-17, and it looks like the gapps I choose to uninstall are coming back on reboot.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] digitalhigh:
No. However, the current version of the dotview app is a lot more robust than it used to be.

Nope. I'll try and see if I can test it somehow tonight and come up with a fix.

That's correct. This is a bigger feat of logic, which I am not set up for yet. Future builds will have the gapps selectable on a case-by-case basis.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Lost Dog:
A little off topic but does anyone have a good solution for pinned Google play music and a clean install?

I've got it on an external sd card but even with titanium backup (unless I'm doing something wrong) I still need to download my 6GB of pinned music. After a clean flash the music is still on the sd card but it re-downloads it.

I like to clean flash then restore a few select apps with titanium, music being one of them... a 6GB download after each clean flash a pain.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] furious78:
Thanks for your reply. Just to be clear (but maybe you already understood) - this is on every reboot, not just the first reboot after flashing it. Uninstall the gapps, reboot, they come back, wash/rinse/repeat. For now, I will just hide them in my launcher. No big deal... thanks!
