Great post.

Never had issue once itfinushee the android is upgrading, that's odd.

That's strange, I never noticed the info bar but maybe that's how it is now in LP as I didn't do anything to weather app or widget to make it do this and v2.0 and v4/0 are "official" releases so it must be like this now. I guess just use the hourly to get to the website.

I also tested Venom ROM and it also has the same behavior.

And why not try again? Just make sure to make a nandroid and then you're right back where left off.

Also see the new post where you can now switch boomsound and HK, it was posted today. I may need to re-edit the settings.apk to accomade this new MOD - I will be checking into that later tonight.

Andy, this is the second Lollipop rom I have tried, and both gave me the same issue after a few hours of using it. I keeping losing function of my soft keys, and have to reboot to get them to work again, but after awhile, they stop working again. I read in digitalhigh's rom, that he said this in his FAQ:

I installed this ROM, and now my screen/wifi/touchscreen/etc isn't working correctly!

Have you installed the custom 4.4.4 firmware linked in the OP? You need it.

I see you mention that the stock firmware should be used with your rom? What is considered stock firmware, 4.4.4?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] lab639:
Hey Andy, sorry for the late response, and to your questions yes its a verizon m8, and the feature worked perfect on your 2.0, which is what i was running before flashing 4.0 a few days ago. also iv noticed a reduction in performance since 4.0, I just restored back to 2.0 via TWRP and the option to add custom ringtone is back and all the above problems are fixed. And also thank you for all the work you put into these ROMs, they are by far the best, this is the first problem iv had since iv been using your ROMs and they are very minor :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Yes, you must be on at least the 4.4.4 software. then try the others out as you go but 4.4.4 is always the go-to backup latest for us ATM.

I'm glad v2.0 fixed your issues.

It's a more complete port, I only posted v4.0 for a friend.

Also closer to MOD Pack.

I think I did more tihings like the custom ringtone which I could easily add to v4.0 in the future, (just ask) :cool:

Seriously? Andy, you are about the most accommodating Dev I've come across on this site. I've just been reading up on the thread, and I've gotten through most of it in the last day or two. Thanks for your amazing work, and although all of these ROMS are essentially the same, yours does seem to run a bit smoother and more reliably than the others I've tried (NuSense, DH GPE, Adrenaline, etc.). I just switched from NuSense Lollipop about 3 days ago and it's running really well. I'm on Verizon M8 with DH lollipop firmware and your 4.0 ROM.

Thanks again, really appreciate all the hard work you've put in.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] lennie paz:
Andy, I hated to do it, but I had to bail on this rom. I tried every possible firmware, and none of them would fix my issue of losing function of my soft keys. I appreciate all the hard work you put into this rom though.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
That's too bad but really no need to advertise it. I am an advocate for using what works best for You on Your phone. Be it another ROM or what have you, in fact you can even find evidence of me helping others out on a different ROM. I don't fight for your use. If you are unhappy all I can do is say ok, and hope you find what You're looking for. :cool:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gkersting:
Andy, I was running FluentROM v2.0 w/modpack 10 and found it to be flawless. Then jumped to FluentROM v4.0 (Sprint) w/ modpack 12 and it too is running great. Thanks for taking your personal time and putting together such great ROMs for everyone to benefit from. Also very Happy we just broke 32 degrees and the sun is out.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Appreciate that, but the issue on the HK mod is now moot, since that other thread opened. And I didnt need to flash the new settings.apk, everything is working fine and the menu for HK is in the settings menu after flashing the mod from that thread, selecting Verizon, and booting up.

As for HTC weather, I guess it just is what it is!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] syphix:
Anyone have this issue? It honestly is my only issue with Fluent: the screen fails to come on every now and then after a call is finished or when the phone is pulled away from the ear (i.e., proximity sensor issue?). Works fine when running CleanRom or a GPE Lollipop ROM, but sometimes sticks on Fluent.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Try a couple things...

1. Flash a new kernel.

2. Flash a different firmware

3. In the mod pack, select (or don't select, do the opposite of what you have done before) the power button flashlight mod

One of those may alleviate your issue. I don't have this problem at all in several weeks, and I make a lot of calls for work.

I'm on 2.0, with buckmarble's latest Elite (2/15/15) kernel and DH's custom LP firmware (link found elsewhere in this thread).
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
yea sorry about the htc weather..

i would still flash the settings.apk with HK that I posted, I checked the code, it is the same.

this will give you back app ops (unless santod tossed that in..) but I'd still flash it anyway to match the settings.apk back up with the correct ROM.

:)

all great suggestions below. :)

good stuff, thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
One last question/request...

Do you know anything about the way GPE/AOSP Roms do a screen color fade-out when power off is pressed? Its a neat effect that I don't see on my current setup, unless I borked it by accident. I don't see any screen off effect at all. So if it doesn't exist but you know how to easily add it, awesome! If not, maybe I'll post this in the mod pack thread for future consideration.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] syphix:
This did the trick! Fluent is....FLUENT! Working great!!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
That is called CRT-off animation.

Unfortunately not a MOD yet done on LP. Not in the MOD pack (yet) anyway. I so believe it has been requested, and if not you can always do so in Lyapotas thread, he is an awesome guy. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Actually, what I was referring to is a little different. Check out this video's first demonstration to see what I mean.

http://youtu.be/WqOFxs_8c94

It's a fade to black and white before fading the whole screen to black.

I'll take this request over to the other thread if I can't find a simple build.prop edit on my own. My understanding is that this is default lollipop behavior that htcv somehow suppressed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
It's still the CRT-OFF MOD, I've only seen CRT and fade, looks like Google has added more off animations. As to how easily they can be enabled is something Lyapota will be able to hopefully answer better. :)

I"am still having issues on 2.0 every boot my apps a bunch of them update it has been going on for couple weeks now my m8 has used up most all its internal storage and keeps telling me phone storage is low and keeps wanting me to delete things. I had almost 4 gb's in apps alone I got rid of some and put all pics on sd card and its still using up almost all internal storage.

I"am on 2.0 with the srom firmware tried all firmwares including the dh one and srom is the better working one. I"am on bucks kernel Elite_M8_LOLLISENSE-02_02_2015_2.zip

I had others say they had this issue also, thinking its firmware related ?

Was hoping to hold out till verizon update but its not going to let me.

Anyone know of a fix or what you did to stop this apps updating on every boot ? I think the apps are using way too much internal storage and that is part of it but its messed up somewhere. And I only have 2 backups in twrp and it shows over 11 gb's on that storage too ?

I could move my twrp back ups to sd but I have had issues with back ups on sd not working where ones on internal storage always have worked for me.

Anyone know of a fix ?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Twrp backups usually come in between 6 and 7 GB ea for me. I'd try deleting one and see if your storag issue goes away

Clean flashing may help too.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jonathanbailie:
Having some great battery life with this ROM. I usually go a while before I'm near a charger again, so that's important. I also use the phone everyday, all day, for my job. I've tried various Sense and GPE ROMs, and this has been the best so far.

I'm on VZW M8, Fluent 4.0, DH 5.0 firmware.

Wow. I leave out cache and enable compression, and mine are only about 3 gigs. Mileage must vary based on apps, though.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mr_bungalow:
Loving this ROM!! Excellent battery life (avg usage and still at 70% after 18 hours - granted 8 of those were sleep ;) ) and just a great speedy performer!

A few issues I've been having on the 4.0 version:

I can't add any social apps to my blinkfeed.

HTC Sync Manager doesn't recognize my phone on osx.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
With regards to the "Optimizing Apps" or "Installing Apps" message on every boot, I think I found an issue. I'm currently seeing another related problem to my apps, and believe it to be a potential permissions or write-protected error.

Upon every boot, all of the apps I've updated in the last few days show in the play store as "Update" available, and I have to re-update them. Every time. I'm up to 25 apps with updates, many of which haven't had new updates in several days. So I know the updates I'm installing aren't sticking.

I can get you a log if you tell me what you want me to get a log of. Want me to install updates and capture the log? The updates install fine, it isn't until after a reboot that the apps show as not updated. I'm wondering what other data is being reset upon every boot.... probably app settings too!

Don't know if this is a common error but it is definitely persisting for me. Running 2.0, was a clean flash. Didn't notice this problem for at least a week.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I don't have this issue or know how to fix it tbh, anyone else having same or not same?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
I know "fix permissions" doesn't work in Lollipop, but I feel like my permissions are wrong in /data for this to be happening. Can anyone tell me what the permissions should be for the /data and /data/app folders themselves, as well as if there is a standard permission scheme for all apps found in there?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] pheonix3330:
I had this same exact problem on FLuentSRom 1.1.3. What was strange was that the issue didnt start happening right away, it took a week or so before it started happening (possibly because no apps had updates yet). When I updated to Fluent2.0, the issue went away. I am not currently on Fluent right now, however, so i cant confirm if it still happens right now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
I have had this issue on 2.0 for around 2 weeks. My m8 would update apps on every boot some how all of my internal storage got used up by this constant updating. I posted about this on the 23rd.

I just wiped everything last night and clean installed 2.0 once again and I had over 13 gigs of internal storage left and now its doing the same again I had to turn off app auto updates in the play store so it does not happen again but dont know what I"am going to do about apps that actually need to update. Unless I uninstall the app and reinstall to get the update but like he said they the updates dont stick but my storage sure took a beating from this.

I"am on 2.0 with mod pack 12, srom firmware and bucks latest kernel.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Very sorry for this issue guys.

I can't fix something though I wasn't aware of.

However, thank you for bringing it to my attention and I do very much apologize for this big inconvenience.

I am sure you are on the correct MOD Pack? I know my threads can get confusing at times...

I just want to make sure you didn't accidentally flash the MOD Pack for the Sprint ROM (v4.0)

I am trying to think what could possibly be doing this.

Can you guys answer me this real quick, is it ALL apps, like 3rd party apps, or apps like Maps, etc that are already in the system.

What I could do it make a .zip to remove the apps from data, and back into system. (I should post an update to the ROM with all apps updated, this should fix all those apps, but for 3rd party apps.. I don't get why it would be doing this. :confused:

I will clean flash the ROM, and see which apps are needing an update, and I will prob just update them and post a new ROM. v2.0.1 will be same as v2.0 but with all system apps updated, this way they are now in system/app-system/priv-app rather than in data/app, this will alleviate at least some of the apps on reboot, however. I wonder if it could be firmware related.

is anyone on v2.0 NOT having this issue??
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] shawnn125:
I'm on 2.0 with modpack 12 from post and not having app update issue. Updated FW and kernel.

I did a full wipe and installed. Updated apps via playstore and put back data via TiBu.

I do get playstore exiting randomly though but not a big deal.

I did disable Playstore from auto-updating apps.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Thanks for looking into this. I may just wipe and do a clean install on 4.0 if nobody there is having a problem. I don't see any system apps in my list, so right now I think it is only apps in /data, but I don't recall the last time gmail, maps, or any other apps from /system were updated.

EDIT: Also, I'm certain I used the correct MOD pack.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
well when you have an app in say, system like I do maps and gmail etc, when an update comes, what happens is that the app gets installed into data, while also keeping the old app in system. what I am doing now is updating all these apps and putting them into system. so those apps won't be an issue (there are 15 apps I have to update).

So hopefully this will fix a good deal of the apps, but the 3rd party ones it could be as simple as the way you installed them. Did you install through play store, or a back up thingy like tibu?

So hopefully this will fix a good deal of the apps, but the 3rd party ones it could be as simple as the way you installed them. Did you install through play store, or a back up thingy like tibu?

If you don't mind could you wait about 2 hours and let me upload v2.0.1 and clean flash that, please? before you more to v4.0 which is a Sprint port rather than International, I find v2.0 better, personally.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
They're mixed. Some I've installed from the play store after flashing the rom. Some came from HTC Backup. Some came from TiBu.

---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 PM ----------

I can wait until tonight. I'll flash 2.0.1 clean, and see where it takes me. Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
awesome thanks man, I'll have it ready in a few hours.

With this, please do a clean flash, reboot to ROM, then go back to recovery to mod pack (must reboot once before flashing them though)

with the new updated apps in system, hopefully that will take away a good chunk, but also, can you do me a favor and download all your apps from the play store please and see if this alleviates the issue?

thank you!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
I'll do exactly that. Clean flash 2.0.1, reboot. (Should I set up any accounts or just reboot to recovery on the welcome screen?) Then flash mod pack for 2.0

Once I'm up and running, I'll restore apps from play store or HTC backup. Whatever the ROM offers me, I forget.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
yea once you flash rom go through entire setup, even download apps if wanted - then back to recovery, but that reboot inbetween and setting up is very important.

if you can do just from play store. thats how i do mine and no issues. :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
v2.0.1

You will most likely want to clean wipe. Unless you remove the 15 apps that I posted from your data/app folder, then it *may* work

but I can only support 2.0.1 as a clean wipe.

thank you

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Sorry, but just for clarification, when is the reboot to recovery to flash mod pack? You said the "reboot between ____ and setting up is very important." Lol.. Reminds me of movies where the phone cuts out when diffusing a bomb "Just don't cut the *(hiss/interference)* wire!!!"
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
sorry, you need to flash the ROM, reboot and go through the setup. at the least..

once on homescreen you can now reboot back to recovery and flash MOD Pack, or download apps, and do whatever, then reboot to recovery.

but you must flash the rom. reboot to homescreen, then mod pack.

basically just do NOT flash the ROM, then the MOD Pack in the same recovery session.. :)

Ah well. Fresh start. I'll let you know how app updating goes in the next 24 hrs.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I never removed it

.download it from playstore... ?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
I had posted about this constant apps updating on reboot late on the 23rd.

I clean flashed 2.0.1 and that seemed to fix the issue having rebooted a few times, then I had rebooted once again and I checked the play store to see if any were showing updates again and for some reason google made me sign in again to access the play store so I did and then it shows the same apps needing updated now none are system apps though.

My apps that are trying to update every reboot or power off and on are calls blacklist, jango radio, paypal, facebook messenger, pocket auctions ebay, serve and zedge. Now I have tried before uninstalling and reinstalling through play center and it made no difference at all.

My whole thing started on the 16th when I downloaded and flashed the mod pack 12 because I downloaded the one for 2.0 which was what I was on and that was when you had the mod pack zips mixed up and I didnt figure that out until after I had these issues and someone asked if I flashed the wrong one, the one for sprint 4.0 and sure enough it was the sprint 4.0 one and I know I used the one for 2.0 because it listed it was for the older previous version of 2.0 also.

My set up is 2.0.1 clean flash with twrp 2.8.5.0 SROM firmware with bucks latest kernel. I"am hoping to hold out and last till verizon update comes out next week, then I will use the newest ruu and then take the ota with stock firmware and start out fresh as a daisy from there then hold out until the m9 comes out.

Since you updated to 2.0.1 that helped a lot got my number of constant updating apps way down. This whole issue ate up all my interenal memory I had to wipe everything and start over as I had to because somehow it used up prob well over 10 gigs of my internal storage and the low storage thing kept showing and I had little to nothing left.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
I see it again, too, after flashing 2.0.1 clean, rebooting, setting up apps, rebooting, flashing the mod pack, rebooting, then doing the HK sound mod and flashing the HK Settings. Did you flash the HK Settings mod? I noticed it sets permissions in /Data, maybe that has something to do with it?

Unfortunately, I didn't test them one by one to know which one specifically is borking it. I'll try to do that tonight if I have time.

Side note: I'm not even upset at not being able to update certain apps, but I'm really just trying to find where all that internal storage is getting eaten up.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Man this is strange. I wish I knew what to do but I'm fresh out of ideas, but it could ded be cos of HK mod
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jskolm:
I am running 2.0, with MOD pack 12, Buck's Latest Kernel, and the HK MOD. I am NOT seeing any of the issues you guys are seeing. There is definitely something with your set up. I have wipe and reinstalled because I messed something up due to my own tinkering, and I still do NOT have these App update issues you guys are having.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Thank you so much for this feedback. I can agree 100% its you guys setup. Firmware, something. Look in data/app and see if you have an app in there more than once, like -1, -2 folders both for same appp, that could be it.. Delete those and reinstall those apps until there is just 1 folder
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Yep, thats exactly what I see. I will delete them for now, not sure what the cause of this is. Maybe TiBu. Thanks for helping me figure it out. I won't complain here anymore!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mikexda:
Sorry for joining the party late, but for what it's worth I am having this exact same issue. I'm currently still on 2.0 and MOD pack 10, using aer0zer0 firmware.

It seems like the only thing we all have in common was TiBu. I used it to restore user apps when I clean flashed 2.0.

If I have time tonight, I'll clean flash 2.01 and restore all apps from the play store (that will take a while :mad:) and see what happens.

With any luck, VZW will release official next week and all this goes away.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Its not complaining my friend, were getting you fixed -) your feedback is highly appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Tibu is most likely the issuei highly suggest downloading from plat store only, I've had no issues. Also check that data/app folder and remove any apps with more than 1 folder with the app so for example if you see maps in two folders completely remove it, reboot and redownload from plat store and then make sure you only have 1 folder.
