I had that problem while I was on 7.2. I gave up and did a fresh install on 7.3 and all was good. It didn't matter how many times I would log out and log back into the HTC account or clear cache or remove the account and re add it. Hopefully that helps although it's not ideal...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] lennie paz:
I only have about 15 apps in the app folder. Why would it say it's updating 187?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Does this happen on EVERY reboot? -- its normal to get android is upgrading after mod pack and others or if you flash a .jar file. Or wipe cache.

I would uninstall all your data apps and install 1 at a time checking the data/app folder every time making sure it installed the app correctly with just 1 folder. It's what I do.

New kernel is from 4/4/15. - I posted link a page or 2 back.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ucantescape1992:
Andy,

After clean flashing v4.0 my build number showed up as 1.32.401.15, then after flashing the v4.0 modpack it shows 1.32.401.08. Is this normal?

Sorry if this has already been covered. Thanks for the awesome Rom!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sco77:
Been 24 hours since I I flashed this rom, pretty Impressed with the performance and battery life far. No issues with data or sms thus far.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] lennie paz:
Okay, that's the version kernel my phone is showing. I haven't really paid attention when I get the Android Upgrading. Should it ever say 187 apps though?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] d08speed3:
Yea its weird. I was on a clean flash of 7.4 and having problems. Another clean flash and it works again lol. So weird.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
You messed up somewhere, sounds like you thought you flashed v4.0 but flashes v7.4..

No need to apologize, but v4.0 was released wayyy before sense 7 even came out so it's actually impossible for for v4.0 to say 1.32.401.15...

I would redownload and check md5.

You know that v4.0 is the Sprint LP ported ROM. May I ask why you don't use the vzw LP?

v6.0
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] furious78:
I am not even close to an expert on electronics, but it has been my understanding that charging speed is based on the amperage of the charger. IIRC, you want to get a 2 amp charger for the best charging performance. If you have a charger with 1 amp (or even a 2 amp on a splitter), it will charge slower. The length of the cable has nothing to do with it. I have a long-ass cable on my nightstand hooked up to a 2 amp charger, and it charges pretty quickly.

The previous poster who mentioned a 14-hour charge time... that is just insanely slow. Check the amperage on it. FWIW, I have not seen any change in charging times on this ROM using the cables I've always used between GPE, Sense 6, and Sense 7.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] d08speed3:
Flashing lyapota Mod pack and checking build # it says 1.32.401.8. This is just what the mod pack flashes correct? Im still on the latest base (7.4). I can always change it it build.prop of it bothers me that much. I flashed that mod pack to get 4G+WiFi icons together in status bar. I know it FCs NFC but I don't use it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] isdnmatt:
Well, I have a M.S in Electrical Engineering. Longer cables have more inherent resistance. Lower gauge (thinner) cables also increase the resistance, so that 2AMP charger means nothing if you do not have the correct cabling to get the power to your phone.

Think about it this way, you could have a huge powerful water pump, but it will do you no good if you're trying to pump through a straw.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Yes... Absolutely. And it's a good thing, not bad.

Anytime you flash the MOD Pack, or any other MOD that has either the updater-script to wipe dalvik cache or the MOD has a .jar file in it. (and the MOD Pack has BOTH... jar files and the updater-script it set to wipe the cache automatically for you so there is nothing you can do)

(Just imagine how difficult and time consuming it is for us developers who have to test the MODs..

If I miss something up I have to keep flashing the .jar file and EVERY time it does the android is upgrading and it does all of your apps so about 180+ ...

You guys only have to deal with it a couple times, it sometimes takes me hours upon hours testing waiting for the android is upgrading.. it sucks)

OR

anytime you wipe your dalvik cache.

The only time that it is an issue is if you reboot your phone and it upgrades your data apps, which I can't imagine anyone having over.. 20-30 apps? I have no idea how many apps people download.

So if you reboot your phone, and you don't get the android is upgrading the you have no issues.

:cool:

It's not weird at all, my friend.

The themes work just fine.. So a clean flash will fix it.

Here is my suggestions for everyone when they clean flash or this is my procedure at least and I don't have any issues..

1) take your time...

2) Open every single app and make sure it's working and is up to date in the play store.

3) Sign into Google account let it sync. (put your phone down for 10-20 minutes and let it do its thing)

4) Download apps one at a time, checking each time to make sure it installed properly in data/app - if it has two folders -- completely remove the app, reboot the phone and then try it again.

Please remember guys, this is a PORT from the M9. The M9 has a

VERY

different file structure. Not too mention we don't have the Sense 7 firmware. We are lucky the Sense 7 ROMs run as well as they do.

Thank you for the feedback, my friend.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
It doesn't change the build.prop # on the ROM, as there is no build.prop in the MOD Pack, so it can't change what's not there.

Where does it say this? I fixed it in the latest #005 MOD Pack.. You do use the MOD Pack from my OP right?

If you are using his, I can't support your bugs man.. That's why I take the time to port it to this ROM...

And the MOD Pack doesn't make the NFC F/C.. it FIXES the F/C ?

I made you a .zip to bring back the WiFi + 4G icons.. - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934551710

Very well put my friend, thanks for the feedback. :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
HTC Sync Manager Fails

The HTC Sync Manager fails (no Verizon M8 detected) with Fluent version 7.4. Its important function is to backup and restore entire Sense/Phone settings including Sense user customized themes, accent colors, fonts, sounds, etc. to/from a PC (other file syncing can be easily handled by ADB and other methods). HTC Sync Manager succeeds (detects the Verizon M8) with the latest Skydragon Sense 7.0 ROM. Could be an issue worthy for additional investigation.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Should be simple enough to fix...

I have everything set to see this phone as an M9..

so the HTC Sync must not support M9 yet?

Flash the attached .zip in recovery and let me know if it works for you.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] LibertyMonger:
I had this issue as well and could not download a theme because of it. I reverted back to a different ROM and HTC synch is working again.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Themes work fine?

I also attached a .zip above your post which will fix it.

I can't fix what I don't know about. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] d08speed3:
Andy I figured out what what changing the build # and base#....the Dobly zip you provided does it. Can you update for this 7.4 ROM please.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Here ya go my man. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934551717

Did you also see my post about the MOD Pack and flashing the one in this thread?

I provided a .zip for the dormant 4G Icon while on WiFi back in SystemUI.apk - Flash the MOD Pack I made for this ROM, then flash the below .zip

Many thanks friend.

Ive always used and suggested HK over the others.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] LibertyMonger:
Sorry but it just started happening this morning. Themes and all were fine. I shouldn't post anything cause I can't be much help while at work. I just thought I would verify this issue.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] smc333:
Hey Andy I may have missed it but is there a way to get fast unlock back on 6.0 after the htc unlock screen update? Ty!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xdadevelopers-user:
It did not work for me.

I installed HTC Sync Manager on a Windows PC to see if it would recognize the phone. It says "No phone connected". However I can reboot into an M8 based ROM and it is recognized and works as expected.

I noticed that the build.prop in this zip still has:

ro.build.product=htc_himauhl

I flashed the zip hoping it would make MultiROM Manager recognize the phone. It didn't - even after I changed the ro.build.product to htc_m8wl.

Does anyone know what MultiROM Manager checks to determine if the phone is supported?

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I'll look into HTC sync more

- I'm starting to think that the files might need to be flashed on first boot :-/

Sense 7 HTC Browser

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26383143/HTC/HTC One M8/Sense7-Browser.zip
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] xdadevelopers-user:
Thanks!

If it's any help I also noticed that the app "Phone Tester" (which has a system info section) lists both the BRAND and MODEL as "unknown".

The app is available from the Play Store as "Phone Tester (sensors, GPS...)" by Miguel Torres.

I believe if you can figure out how to get BRAND and MODEL to be known in this app then HTC Sync will probably start working too.

What's weird to me is that from an adb shell I can run 'getprop ro.product.brand' and it returns 'htc'. And I can run 'getprop ro.product.model' and it returns 'HTC6525LVW'.

If there's anything you'd like me to try to help get to the bottom of this just let me know.

Thanks,

-xdadevelopers-user

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

I'm checking that now. I'll report my findings soon.

UPDATE: I clean flashed 7.4 and, before booting the first time, I flashed the HTC_Sync_Fix.zip. I then booted up, did a quick configure (basically skipped everything I could) and checked to see if HTC Sync manager recognized the device. It did not. I also checked MultiROM Manager. It too failed to recognize the device. And, finally I checked the app Phone Tester->System Info and it indicated that the BRAND and MODEL are both unknown. I could not identify any problems in the build.prop that would account for this.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
It was... I agree.

Donations are not the reason why Devs leave though. We choose to. Just as I am choosing not to leave. :cool:

Like I did with the M7 for a very long time when I got the M8 on release day.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
At least Andy isn't leading people on, promising an update, racking up donations, and then fleeing for greener pastures as soon as the gates open. But even if he did (and I'm certainly not saying he would), that's why it's donations, not payments. It's a donation to thank a developer for what they've DONE, not payment in anticipation of FUTURE services rendered.

Too easily many of us forget, some people don't sell their old device to help buy the new one. Some people keep all their old phones. They can afford to obviously, and also nostalgia. And for a backup phone. Or maybe a gift to a friend or family member. One developer I knew upgraded ASAP and gave his phone that I also had to his kid. When the kid would go to sleep, he'd take "her" phone, Nandroid it up, and then work on it. When she got up in the morning, it was as she left it and fully charged. Not a problem for anyone involved or concerned.

Anyway... Can't wait to get back into Fluent. I'll probably flash 7.4 tomorrow. Nothing in the immediate pipeline is there? Not asking for an ETA. I just hate it (read: find it funny) when I flash a ROM and a new one drops that day. Especially when I have some problem and the changelog says it's fixed. D'oh! I forget when I last used Fluent. Pretty sure it was Sense 6. I haven't got the zip anymore.

As for chargers, I've never had a problem. I'm using the HTC One M8 brick in my bedroom, as well as the original cable. At work I have the Asus Nexus 7 2013 brick and a generic cable. The cable is missing, but I just found it in the car. My wife has a two-slot brick for her phone and tablet (the Nexus 7). She has another 2-slot brick (they're both 2A) that she takes to work, and she can charge a friend or co-worker while charging her own phone. We've mixed and matched generic and name brand chargers, 1/1.1/1.2A and 2A chargers and cables... Never had an unusually slow charge... Not since I had the Galaxy S3 with the Anker 7200 battery. That thing took 8 hours to charge off a 2A charger from 5% to 100%. It barely lasted two days, too. What a waste.

Front Camera Not Working

I came from V4.0, flashed the new LP linked from the OP, then wiped as suggested and installed 7.4. Booted up and somewhat accidentally restored using HTC Backup. I was planning on doing this, but it was late and I wasn't fully paying attention and it started restoring. Oh well, didn't think any harm would come of it, and I'm not having any odd issues with apps updating on each reboot as others have reported.

I have not installed any Mod Pack.

So far I've been 100% and happy, but this afternoon I noticed my front camera isn't working. Tried the Selfie setting in Camera, tried my Cisco Jabber video software, and then Z Device Test. None of them show the front camera.

I'm guessing I'm alone on this, since 7.4 has been out for a bit with no other mentions of this. So what can I do to try get it working? RUU my best bet?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Hey man this is very kind of you. Really appreciate it!

I am one who likes to keep my old phone to continue developing for, I love this community and the users.

I know the M9 community will also be great, but this is home for me.

Well said my friend!

Just checker and selfie is working here, I suggest RUU. Sorry dude. :-/

Hate having to suggest this. Remember to backup your internal if you do :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Antny6:
I'll be picking mine up on Friday as well....pumped!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
Why do you hate to recommend RUU? I've had misc. problems with two Sense mods now and I'm wondering if it's on my end. RUU doesn't change S-OFF status. RUU, wait, wait some more, fastboot TWRP, reboot to TWRP, flash ROMs. I don't even think it's an hour inconvenience, tops. Your BoneStock graphic says you worked on the S3. I never saw that, I had the US Cellular version. But you know about Odin to stock, it's the same as RUU I think, at least to the user. And I was very comfortable with Odin. Odin to stock, Odin TWRP, TWRP flash the ROM back. Pretty easy. I'm considering RUU'ing tomorrow or the next day.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I am the sole developer of BoneStock ROMs for the SG3 + SG4 + HTC M7 - I changed the name to Fluent ROM for the M8 :)

1 man crew (not everyone really understand this, and they will thank the "team" or something like that, and it's kind of upsetting because if people knew the amount of time I spend each and every day for XDA.. they would be shocked)

I have no team..

I do all my own testing, and everything.

It's a lot of work and stress on my PC and phone.

but I love it and wouldn't change a thing. :)

Very cool to have a user of mine from the ol Sammy days, I miss the Samsung community.

Not that this community isn't great, I love you guys too!

but the Samsung community seemed.. different. - In a good way.

anyway, I hate to suggest RUU (and I am very familiar with RUU and Odin, it's very easy to do - but can be a pain) because of the inconvenience of time and having to backup your internal storage.

Thank you for being understanding, it's makes my life so much less stressful.

As you may notice, (esp from back on the Sammy days) I do my best to be on top of every little bug, even if it's just a request from a single person, I do my best to make everyone happy.

I still have those who think I am a @$$.

and I can be at times. :)

I guess you either understand my sense of humor or you hate me, is what I've gathered from some people lol.

also is comfortable with using fastboot and what not (even though I don't think anyone should really be S-OFF when not comfortable with such things, as I personally don't want to see anyone with a $500 paper weight)

Here in Ohio we are all good ole americans lol. Last I checked we dont have any international services here cellular or otherwise lol :p.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:
A lot of developers, even solo developers like Andy, support their ROM's on more than one device. And the main way they can afford to do that is via donations. It's not about giving them the ability to upgrade their device and move on from the M8 or S6 or whatever, it's about giving them more flexibility in the number of devices they can support. Plus, the larger variety of devices they support, the more experience they get supporting Android in general, as well as different manufacturers.

It's a win-win.

Bluetooth Messages

Just noticed that for the past several days, when using Bluetooth in my car, the car stereo no longer recognizes when I have received a text message like it did before. I have tried deleting all devices in the car stereo (stock unit in a 2014 Ford Focus), and re-adding the device, making sure to allow permissions for messaging, phonebook, etc, and set it as the default phone. Phonecalls work. BT audio works. But messaging no longer works.

Didn't have this issue in previous builds. ANy ideas? Can anyone else duplicate the problem?

Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
hmm, I don't have Bluetooth in my car so I can't test, sorry

it was working on v7.2/.3?

did you clean flash v7.4?

I do listen to music through an aux cable and I do get text msg notifications, no idea if they are related though.

Hoping someone can chime in
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
Yes, it was a clean flash, and it was working in previous builds. It's not a deal breaker, just something I noticed. I hated that feature at first, but you get kind of used to having the car read your text messages to you so you can check to see if it was something important without having to look at the phone. Safety first ;)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myk.robinson:
As for the aux cable, if that's connected, ALL sounds will go through the cable, so that's normal. But with Bluetooth, you have options to control whether you want certain things to go through bluetooth or not.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Interesting. Thanks for the feedback.

I only have a bluetooth headset, I paired it, I wish it gave the options to have messages read through it.. def. should!

sorry for this annoyance.. I will check into things but not too sure what I'll come up with unfortunately.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] lennie paz:
Bluetooth and text messages are working fine in my 2014 Nissan Altima. When you first connected to Bluetooth after flashing the ROM, did you get a pop up on your phone telling you it wants to access your messages and contacts?

I did, and I have repeated the process a few times to be sure. I may just clean flash this weekend. Who knows what may have interfered with it. Perhaps something in the modpack.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Until you clean flash please don't post issues.

Dirty flashing just doesn't make sense to me.

You are bound to have problems.

It takes me all of 10-20 minutes to set up after a clean flash..

You'll save that time by having a working ROM over a dirty flash trying to diagnose an issue that may not exist..

If this comes off rude that is 100% not my intention my friend. But posting issues on a dirty flash just makes my life that much harder..
