Has anyone noticed a lag in Google Keyboard at random times? I can type the full sentence...then a second later it actually starts showing on the screen. Very weird. I'm on the cleanest of clean FluentROM 7.5 with ModPack 10 (which actually says modpack 9 when flashing!). I'm using the lonelyx sense 035 kernel too. I think I like it...but there's always a lag somewhere. When I double tap the screen it takes an extra microsecond to show the screen. Is this due to kernel settings in Trickster? I also have 3C but have not installed it yet on this ROM. I'm basically asking if people have random lags with not only the keyboard, but the entire ROM as a whole just randomly. I'll check the RAM and there's 750+MB available too so I know it's not that.

Is it time for another wipe of dalvik and cache in recovery? I want to use this phone as a workhorse when needed (i.e. going between many apps at the same time) and simply (hangouts, gmail, chrome, etc)

What are other people's experiences? What kernel are you running? What settings (please be specific) are you using in kernel tweak apps like Trickster?

Or any other advice would be greatly appreciated.

On a final note, [MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION] ... This is the ONLY ROM I use on my phone. No MultiROM, etc. What a wonderful product. You in the US? I want to buy you a beer and help me figure out what the eff some of these things mean! Lol.

Many thanks ?

"(which actually says modpack 9 when flashing!" - I'm only human.. I make mistakes, too. :cool:

Sorry for the KB lag, I personally don't have any. I am not suggesting that the lonelyx kernel isn't good, but it hasn't been updated in a while, I used to use it myself, but I prefer Bucks Elite kernel, and has been updated often.

I would suggest trying that out, it comes in the ROM stock, but he may have a more updated one in his thread you can check out.

I use the stock kernel setting that comes with his kernel.

Can't ever hurt to wipe dalvik and cache.

I am in the US. :)

Donations are always appreciated, my PayPal is acd2788@gmail.com

Thank you kindly

also, keep in mind this is a port of Sense 7, it's not a stock ROM from Verizon, so I do my best to keep it bug free. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rhodyvik:
Well, it's hard to find Buck's Kernel threads because he went from XDA to DroidForums. Can you link me to his most recent thread? I thought I had his 4_20_15 LolliSense kernel but can't find it!

That's for those who want buck's kernel. Please let me know if you'd like me to delete that seeing as that the link is not yours, [MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION].
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
wasn't aware he left XDA to driod forums, sorry bout that.

I don't actually PayPal is my only way of accepting donations. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] garywojdan81:
All the links on his droidforums page are old so I don't think he's moved......unless you've heard something directly from him...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rhodyvik:
Nah it was my bad...he's on XDA. The link I provided above has the latest. All these folks have real jobs...so it's tough to tell if they've actually updated anything. Buck's Elite has been my go to kernel ever since I got this M8 last April. Phone is in incredible shape. I've probably freaked out more times than I would have liked because stuff wasn't working. It was mostly user error.

On another note: what are people using as their HTC theme? And their Accent colors? If someone could tell me which combo makes it dark I would be very happy. :)

Go Rangers!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I do know Buck has moved to the Nexus6 so this may be the last elite update :(

Check out the theme [MENTION=2950700]icedventimocha[/MENTION] made specifically for this ROM :)

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rhodyvik:
I'm liking the darker theme. I'm not liking the Nexus 6 sentence :(

How do you all find these themes for the exact ROM? I know this is your ROM but could it be possible for you to link the grey theme in the OP? Or how do I search amongst the forums? I just downloaded it.

Can I flash this over Lyapota's ModPack 10 for FluentROM 7.5 that I've already "used?"
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] icedventimocha:
It should probably be okay, if you encounter any issues please follow the directions in the Theme OP.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
ill link in OP, thanks

the theme was created speicfically for this ROM, by MR. [MENTION=2950700]icedventimocha[/MENTION]

we teamed up for sense 6 and he nailed it outta the park on that and even more so bringing it to sense 7 and do fast!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rhodyvik:
For everyone's knowledge: I flashed mod pack 10 before I saw the grey theme. I then flashed the grey zip and it's smooth. Zero errors. I would advise a "wipe dalvik/cache" too. But I reserve to do that only after flashing a kernel. To each his own...this has been my experience. This is the only ROM I use. No need for any other.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TeK9samurai:
Andy,

It looks like HTC Sense Home has been updated again. Any chance you could release another updated zip file?

Do you need to create a zip file for Sense Input as well? I don't use it but just in case for others.

Thanks in advance.

Yes I saw, they will come.

QC 2.0

Hey guys,

Does anyone have a QC 2.0 Charger, or know if it works to full potential on this ROM, or on our phone at all? I wonder if it's Kernel related. Maybe our Bucks kernel has it enabled.

I've seen a couple of threads around the Q&A/General sections, but see mixed and confusing reports. There's so many different variants of our M8 in terms of ROMS. Sense 6 Official, Sense 7, GPE, people using different firmware, kernels... etc.

I'm on Fluent ROM 7.5 with the latest official verizon Firmware.

Been eying the Aukey one on sale at Amazon (normally $16, on sale for $11 with promo code) and finally pulled trigger. Worse case scenario, I suppose I have an extra QC 1.0 charger on hand.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I use Aukey, works amazing. Don't know I got by without it lol.

MOD Pack #011 - pre-release

Until Lyapota puts out the official #011 update here are the updated HTC Sense Home and HTC IME Keyboard.

These are only if you are already using the #010 MOD Pack.

Don't update the "HTC Sense Home" and "HTC Sense Input" from the Play Store that came out on 5/21/15

instead, flash this .zip, it will keep your already chosen MODs from #010 MOD Pack.

Anyone else having trouble using HTC theme? I used to be able to change and download theme but now it will only show default and when I tried to download the latest theme it will keep prompting me to log into HTC account which I already did...I did flash the Modpack 10 and latest pre-release update as well
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] carm01:
please sign in to HTC account again

is what i am getting I tried some suggestions like clearing data from sense home but that just jacks up your app drawer and stuff and you have to spend time to re-arrange your home screens. I tried removing HTC account, logging off and back on again, etc.. fail city
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] billjohnson:
I didn't flash the mod pack, and don't have this issue, although I did when flashing it on other ROMs in the past.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] garywojdan81:
No mod pack here and no issues either.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Theme issue has only happened when I did a nandroid and then came back.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Jpmoo:
Have flashed this, but have lost themes app from my app drawer. Not sure if Blinkfeed/Home is totally gone (I use Action Launcher). HTC Home shows as not installed in Play Store. Any thoughts?

UPDATE: Went back and reflashed mod pak 10, since I'd only done the pre-release. Then I flashed pre-release of 11. All's well, now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
Hey andybones, could you tell me what I need to change to unhide the NFC Icon? I know I can use the modpack but don't want to flash it just for one thing.

EDIT: Is it in acc/default.xml I think I might of found it, yeah I did
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Verrocio:
Will flashing the mod packs wipe out my user data and user apps ?

Also, I've been reading about bluetooth 4.1 and 4.2 and ANT+. It seems there are some strengths of ANT over bluetooth 4.1 for the moment. Is there any support for ANT+ in this rom ? :confused:

I'd like to give this another try and see if a kernel change might help the gsm data issues.

Failed Nandroid Restores

All,

Maybe someone can confirm this, but after 3 times, and 3 fails I giving up on this 11prerelease.

Every time I flashed this mod pack and tried to do a Nandroid and wipe then restore I would get stuck on the android boot screen, then the 3rd time this is what I did( all are the same except 10 forward wiping cache helped, but not enough to boot after )

I'm on the latest twrp

1) made back up of current system running 7.5

2) Flashed 7.5 Fluent rom allowed to boot.

3) Nandroid and successful wipe and restore

3) Flashed 10 mod pack with the following options and allowed boot.

a) % battery

b) adv power

c) show nfc

d) stock nav bar size

4) Nandroid and successful wipe and restore

5) Flashed the sense6 message with VVM.

6) Nandroid and successful wipe and restore

7) added accounts, updated everything from play except as specified for this mod pack.

8) Nandroid and successful wipe and restore.

9) Flashed this mod pack

10) Cleared cache and successful boot

11) Nandroid backup and wipe , then failed boot; stuck at android boot screen

12) Forced restart back to recovery, then wiped cache and del cache

13) Android is updating, counting through apps and then stuck at starting apps.

14) Force boot to recovery, wipe cache again

15) Going through android is upgrading again.

16) Starting apps - waited 7 minutes on the pin wheel of death and GAVE UP!

Based on my experience. Make a nandroid BEFORE you flash this.

Maybe someone else could look into this as I have spent 7 hours thought the day working on this thing.

Anyone getting lag between screens and apps sometimes? I can turn ZRAM on but it doesn't seem like it makes a difference. It seems like after a few minutes, everything "de-lags" or "un-lags?" Whatever the term is, who cares. I'm wondering if people are using Trickster? If so, what are the optimal settings for this ROM? I've read about the governors but I could use someone to dumb those down a little more haha. FSync is off. I've got Read Ahead at 2048 and FIOPS. I can go 4096 and FIOPS. What's "better than" FIOPS? Also, what's the best governor for speed?

Ondemand is default. I've read several forums that suggest Interactive is better. What is OptiMAX, Wheatley and RagingMollassis? I've looked those up too but I'm not well versed enough to figure out which would be best for my device? I usually have screen on a lot and am Texting, Emailing and web browsing the most. What's the best settings? I also have $ version of 3C Toolbox Pro but have not installed it in case it interferes with Trickster.

Thanks!

To clarify: the phone gets so slow that I can either try to wait it out or power off then on. Not just reboot/restart. Also wiped dalvik.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
not sure why the issue but I tested the .zip before releasing, working fine.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] carm01:
I wish I had the answer, but i just wanted to share just in-case. I know you test things. I am running the previous radios as they seem to be better for me at least, but all the other firmware is lolli. Maybe it does not like the radios, but Im no expert. That is the only other thing I could think of as of this post.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rhodyvik:
Searched, couldn't find the answer: is there a way to stop the notification ticker on the status bar? I like the pop-up, just not the continuous scrolling on my status bar.

Edit: I have Xposed and use it. But I do not want to download Gravity Box. I feel like it messes with ROM's that have SENSE in it like this one. Is there a different Xposed module?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] garywojdan81:
Try Xtended Settings. I think it's in the play store and it's supposed to work on Sense 7.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
No need for Xtended or Xposed, I added it I can rid it. :)

It's a systemui.apk MOD.. Send me your systemui.apk and I'll remove it. U don't want it scrolling to tell u ur text msg, right?

Normally I don't. The Rangers are giving me heart attacks and I am going crazy. Thank you.

So, I rename to: systemui.apk , put it in the folder where it originally was, refresh, reboot? Or does doing it in recovery make it go smoother?

Sorry again. [emoji17]
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
no worries.

simply flash in recovery.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] rhodyvik:
When I get ESPN notifications, they scroll in the status bar. Those are the ones that get annoying because their notifications aren't short. I'd rather have it just pop up like texts or nothing at all. I'd like it to just show the icon and then when I swipe down, I can read it. But, if pop up is the only way, then that's cool too. I feel like the flash of the zip didn't really do anything.

Go SMS Pro question

Absolutely love the speed/smoothness of this rom but have somewhat of an odd question. Is anyone here using Go SMS Pro? I ask because I'm getting something odd and wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this. I'm running 7.5, no mod pack flashed.

When I type the name of someone who has multiple contact numbers, Go SMS Pro isn't showing what the phone numbers are (see attached)....it shows the multiple contact options but no number. I've tried this in both the stock messaging app, as well as Handcent, and both show the number so I'm confused as to what's going on. I've also test driven a Sense 6 LP rom and Go works like it should, showing the phone numbers.

Hopefully, someone has run into this and has a possible solution. I use Go specifically as it allows me to file some contacts into a private box, allowing communication with those contacts to remain out of the general text list. I know Handcent has a private box as well but I'm just not loving it.

Apologies Andy, for posting this here, but it's only on this rom that I've run into this and was hoping the legion of Fluent fans might have some ideas. I don't think it's a rom issue...maybe a Sense 7 issue? I haven't tried any of the other Sense 7 roms to test this as I'm loving this rom and would like to stay put if possible...I'm a fan!

TIA!

Well after multiple flashes of modpacks and flashing every new theme and I think I dirty flashed the ROM once can't remember and had my first problem. Upon reboot couldn't turn data off or on. Remedied by turning on airplane mode and rebooting and wa la back to good ol bug free fluent ROM lol. Think it might be time for a clean flash for a fresh start but I'm pretty sure ima make it last till Andy's next release.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
This is the way HTC made it then, the edit I made for you was the only one I did, sorry.

No worries, I unfrotunately can't help with GoSMS, not sure if anyone else will be able to chime in to see if they have the same issues. You can always hit up the Developer of GoSMS and voice your issue. :cool:

Buck was considering working on an updated M8 kernel, not sure if he has time or what not, esp being on the N6 now.

I am still using his latest and loving it.

Thanks for the info. :good:

What is ANT? I can prob post the apps for you to try..

If talking about AntHalService.apk it's already in the FluentROM_v7.5... :confused:

Well glad you have it going. :cool:

No update will be in the works until we get the official OTA.

I do have my VZW M9 S-OFF, but still using the M8 as a DD for the time being until I get all the MODs and what not working 100%.

Not gunna lie, I have a hard time moving phones, I do love the M9, but am more comfortable on the M8 still.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jmvaught:
First and foremost, AMAZING WORK! Everything just works flawlessly! I plan to donate in the next day or two.

I do have some input for anyone that may have issues after install or freezing during a reboot or any of that. I wiped everything needed and followed the instructions to a T, with ONE exception. I THOUGHT I was on the latest firmware AND radios. I'd say 99% of my firmware, HBOOT ver. matched. Everything but my radios. I'd had some strange signal loss on my last ROM (Santod's NuSenseSix) so I flashed a little different radio and worked it out. The only thing different was my radio. If you need a different radio or you want to try something different, go back after you've let this thing settle for a day or two and try it. I can't stress this enough FLASH THE REFERENCED FIRMWARE FIRST, even if you THINK you've got everything right, do it anyway. You'll be rewarded with FLAWLESS performance. Thanks Andy!

I have been off of this phone for quite awhile so I am sorry if I missed this in the posts.

Well ****.... I literally just installed v 1.0.0 lol
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
Quick question about the modpack... When it asks if we want to flash it on "the next ROM or a custom ROM" or "a stock ROM without root," we want the first one, right? The English translation is not very good and unclear. I always took the first one. Just wanted to make sure I was taking the right one. Everything else is clear.

Oh yeah, don't make my mistake: In the system options, when it says hide volume, what it means is to hide the silent/vibe icons. What I expected was that it would hide the "Safe volume" nag. I would really like to set any volume I like and have it stay there, but Sense (and TouchWiz does this too on Samsung phones) insists on putting the volume around half. Nine times out of ten I'm running a line out to my car stereo, so I need the volume around 90% and I control the actual volume I hear with the controls in the car, but the phone manufacturers don't expect this to be common, and end up fighting me over volume. Is there a way to disable this 'feature'?

Also, can 1.1.0 be dirty flashed over 1.0.0? I'm assuming no because it's been re-based, but I figure it's worth asking.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Mod pack you can see if you pick that second option it installs busyvox, root etc.. This is custom ROM and already comes with that so you just want the mods.

No. It hides the status bar icons.

And I would clean flash as this is a new base.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dragontology:
1.1.0 is 5.0.1. Was it meant to be 5.0.2?

In the mod pack 007, AM/PM doesn't hide, and neither does the Battery Saver icon. These worked in 006. Not Andy's fault, just saying. Voice recording DOES work... but what will open an .amr file? Sweep to sleep and flashlight toggle are there, and the DPI change still works, so I'm happy.

Appreciate the ROM. Keep up the good work, man.
