I'm doing that now. I think we can say that TiBu is the culprit here.

I'm wondering if restoring the app, or restoring data only makes a difference. I will try with one or two apps and see when updates roll in if I end up in the same situation. Since this is not ROM related, we should take this convo elsewhere. Unless someone discovers something else we're missing.

EDIT: One last detail...

HTC's Messaging app has a backup/restore function, but the restore does not work in 2.0.1. I've attached a log. "Unfortunately, Messages has stopped" is the error message.

Log here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4487305/2015-02-26-00-40-17.txt
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jskolm:
I install all my apps and update all my apps through the Play Store, but I use TiBu to restore DATA ONLY for about 11 games that I don't want to lose progress on. And this doesn't mess anything up for me. Let us know your end result. I am curious now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Between Play Store and HTC Backup, I've now restored all of my apps. As a test case, I restored Shazam from TiBu. I was able to update it in the play store, and it persisted upon reboot.

I honestly have no idea what happened.

But anyway, I'm back on a fresh install of 2.0.1, all my apps, I had to reassemble a few parts of my home screens, and lost all text messages beyond 1 month old (thanks, again, HTC Backup, for not making this clear that you'll only restore a month's worth of texts), but I'm back in business. And no storage issues with all that excessive data duplication anymore.

For the record:

CPTB's TWRP 2.8.5.1

Fluent ROM 2.0.1 Clean flash

Restore apps from play store/htc backup

Let system settle for a bit

Install Shazam from TiBu backup (App+Data)

Update Shazam from play store

Reboot

Let system settle.

Check Play store, no updates

Reboot to recovery

Flash mod pack

Reboot

Let system settle.

Reboot to recovery

Flash Elite Kernel (02/15/15)

Reboot.

No HK Mod this time. Everything working fine.

So this should hold me over until the Verizon update is released. Or the M9. Whichever comes first :D
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Glad to hear!

SMS back up works here?? Anyone else??
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
I do not use tibu at all, I use easy backup. I also have had apps do this that were installed through my google account when I went through set up with my google account.

I have even tried unistalling these apps through the play store then rebooting and the play store has them as installed showing updates to them every time ? I have even gone in with es file manager and deleted all the left over files from these apps after uninstalling them and power off then on and play store still shows then installed needing an update ?

I"am just so looking forward to the verizon update. If the issue persists going to be forced to go back to a 4.4.4 rom and firmware. I think the only fix is going to be the verizon update and I"am not blaming this rom. Maybe I will try another LP rom just to rule it out as a rom issue which I do not believe it is.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
any backup service for apps, I don't trust on LP..

only you two have spoken about this issue and the other one has is solved, so it's your set up my friend. :)

V4A4Fluent

With the help of [MENTION=3163133]Zoja[/MENTION] (thread here) and based on the original work of [MENTION=3901724]zhuhang[/MENTION] (thread here), I have created a (beta) installer for V4A for this particular 2.0.1 Fluent Rom. This will install V4A as a system app in /priv-app so as to make it more stable for Lollipop use. I have no skipping or interruptions whatsoever using this.

Please make a backup before installing, as this WILL modify your build.prop, and could cause boot problems if anything goes awry. This is ONLY compatible with 2.0.1. You have been warned.

Please report any issues so I can make adjustments if necessary. REMINDER - I am not responsible for any hiccups, as this is currently in BETA (and my first flashable .zip). Godspeed.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Stam2000:
Thanks. Soon as I stop being lazy and install the Rom I'll try it. Viper4android is one of those mods you must have
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] All4TheFam:
Actually sorry to add to this subject, but neither my wife or I use any kind of backup/restore app, we let google restore from our accounts upon complete wipes. We used jumping to LP as a reason to clean everything including internal and external Sd. We both have been fighting the never ending updating apps till today. Thank you for the information to solve it, fyi. Wife is on Fluent 2.0, I'm on 2.0.1, both with Grey Inversion installed, no Mod packs.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
I got mine fixed, I uninstalled all the apps that kept updating in the play store then I used root browser and went under data and then app and each one of the apps of mine that kept updating on every reboot had 6 folders each in there so I deleted them all and rebooted the phone and went to play store and they were actually gone this time so I added them back directly through the play store and after numerous reboot and a day later and its working great.

Just as the other person mention earlier for his and his wifes m8 my apps were restored the same was through google when I added my google account. I also restored some with easy back up but the ones that were causing this issue had been restored through my google back up.

So all is good again, it must be a google issue I would imagine, just glad its fixed.

---------- Post added at 05:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------

Please see my post above this one if you are still having the apps updating on every reboot issue, as I just posted how I fixed my issue and I do believe it is a google issue with LP.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Great post thank you very much. I actually posted this fix few posts ago.

Its very weird why there is more than 1 folder for the app in data/app folder. When you delete them all you are basically deleting the app so rebooting after was perfect, then I'd take the extra step to go into manage apps and make sure its not there, then redownload and make sure only 1 folder is there and then the issue should be gone. Wish I knew an easier method or why it does this but it buged me a lot when LP came out but never thought it'd do so much damage.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sgtmedeiros:
I'm using 4.0 and my WiFi is cutting out every so often and I have to re enable and disable. I found it doesn't even turn back on unless my mobile data is on. Thoughts?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Firmware? Kernel? Xposed, etc....
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sgtmedeiros:
No xposed, firmware official 4.4.4, included kernel.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ZooDad:
Sgt. I would recommend reading the faq regarding firmware. Wi-Fi issues have been discussed at great length throughout this thread.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
I saw you had posted something a while back listing to go in and manually delete the extra folders for these apps having this update constantly on reboot issue, which yes I did, I just listed the exact ones to delete and how to find them because I"am sure there are a lot of people that didnt know how to find them and might be hesitant to delete them not being sure they were the right ones.

Yes as I listed the easiest way was to uninstall those apps in the play store then delete all the folders for them in the data folder under apps. I just know it can be confusing for some people that are not experienced with things like this, and maybe they were hesitant to ask as I know some of the devs not you but some can be condescending to newbies that are not experienced in doing this stuff.

Actually you could uninstall these apps in the play store and reboot and they were back installed again, even uninstall through rom toolbox and they would be back next reboot. Maybe if you uninstall and reboot 6 times and not update them that may have worked or maybe it was our google accounts restoring them, omg its enough to give a migraine lol.

Its just good to have a fix and be done with it. I"am glad I didnt switch roms I looked and thought crap nothing else I want to run lol especially with no viperone 4.0 available so I really didnt want to go anywhere else, this says a lot about how much all of us appreciate what you have done on this rom because it kicks azz lol.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I was just saying that I knew what the issue was and already posted the fix, sorry if I wasn't very clear with how to remove them. I don't compete against other devs and their Roms I'm certainly not competing here. :)

You're much appreciated and the same with the feedback.

Thank you again my friend. :cool:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
Guess I'll be on this ROM a lot longer than originally anticipated... The HTC M9 announcement honestly left me feeling like it isn't worth my upgrade subsidy. I'll wait on an m9 plus or to see what Sammy has in store. Today is a very disappointing day in Android history..
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] aer0zer0:
Yea, I sorta expected more.... But maybe since its beta software, maybe OIS can be added, and the camera post processing will be better. But that new themes engine looks really neat though
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] fronc:
OIS is hardware-related, and it isn't present, so don't hold out hope for that on the m9. They can fix postprocessing, sure, but I'm more interested in RAW capture which it can do out if the box. So that's a plus.

I just don't think its enough of an improvement over the m8 to make me feel like I NEED to use my upgrade. This m8 is handling my needs just fine, and without a bigger or better screen, nothing would really feel that much different in daily use unless the camera performed exceptionally well.

Last thought... HTC.. Give up on Boomsound speakers, please. Who plays music on their phone speakers, anyway? Besides the most annoying people in the gym/bus/train, I don't know anyone who doesn't own at least one Bluetooth speaker or headset to play music on. You're pidgeon-holing yourself into a design that over time becomes irrelevant year over year, and adding size to a dimension that is already quite large on all phones. Just my $0.02

Back to the topic!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
As off topic as this is.

yea I'm pretty pissed.

I sold my m7 for no reason, and now have no backup device, which I really hate..

I am NOT! paying full price for the M9, it's the M8 with new specs and a years worth of making the device.. easier to hold?

wow..

a case solved that for me on the M8, I'd like some design changes.

and yea how about we drop one of the speakers even?

it'll still be loud and we wont be wasting so much screen real estate.

I may get another brand device..

keeping the M8 however
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jbarcus81:
Optical image stabilization? Been with HTC for years... Yikes, the thought of jumping ship.. But it's a serious thought at this point.. /off topic
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] hgoldner:
Since Andy posted, and I've actually held the M9 in my hand, I'll continue the thread. The speakers are impressive. I don't know how they do the surround sound but it is remarkable and better than the M8. I actually listen to audio on my phone speakers all the time, and it's markedly better even than the M8. The Sapphire Screen is also a step up from the M8's screen. The difference is noticeable. The camera is considerably better -- minus the M8's "duo" effects that never worked unless you took shots "auto" without zoom. The front facing camera is also significantly better, and takes advantage of HTC's ultrapixel technology where it makes sense, because there's no front-facing flash. Finally, Sense 7's theming abilities are pretty cool. Finally, the under-the-hood speed that the 810 gives is essentially lag free. It's very speedy handset. The switch of the power button to the right side under the volume switch should quiet a lot of complaints I have heard about one-handed use of the M8. Also, the two button volume switch should quiet complaints that even I had about rocker volume switch problems with the M8. (I had to replace my first M8 over this problem).

I'll add that the One design is essentially a great design, so incremental changes are not as much of a let-down to me. I've never been a huge fan of updating for the sake of updating.

The final lesson is that it makes zero sense to get your hopes up based upon leaks. I knew upleaks and evleaks had things wrong.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
I use my boomsound speakers all the time, so the answer is actually yes a lot of people do use them, any we dont want to have to buy speakers then have to carry them, that is for samsung users not htc ones.

Its called if its not broken dont fix it. The m9 is a true upgrade, it has a better camera on both sides, a larger battery, faster processor, 3 gigs of memory, and kickass boom speakers anyone with a brain knows this phone will rock and will be getting one I sure will be on day one.

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

I"am with you on this 100% I will be getting the m9 on day one. I love the boomsound speakers and I look forward to the new better version.

---------- Post added at 11:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 PM ----------

Honestly Andy I do not think your giving the m9 enough credit. I know personally that the 3rd gig of ram will help because I multitask and my memory gets eaten up and I have barebones m8 I remove as much as I can to keep it fast and free up memory, and I love the boomsound speakers so I look forward the the upgrade there and to the cameras and larger battery.

The m9 should be a powerhouse and well worth an upgrade, think about it a bit more and keep an open mind you might think differently when it comes out.

---------- Post added at 11:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------

Sammy removed the sd card slot and ditched the removable battery pissing all their users off, and the amoled display will eat up the battery so plan on being near an outlet most of the day where the m9 has a larger battery and 1080p display which anything more is a big waste of battery power so htc m9 is the smart choice and not sammy.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jbeitel:
I am only let down because I was hoping for a design change externally. So I moved on to the note 4 for now. And yes, I use the boomsound speakers all the time, but I am not the annoying public user of them that you refer to.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] hgoldner:
Dunno what that thread you posted after your question was about, but I do use 3 Xposed modules on 2.0 of this ROM (Xtoast, Google Play Listen Later and CPU Temp in status bar). Like many others, I am waiting patiently for Sense Toolbox to be updated for Lollipop.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] M9guy:
The htc web site shows that our LP update is now on stage 4 final release. Funny because they just updated to that where verizon posted on line the LP update was out for release yesterday ???? I tried taking the ota yesterday and just a few minutes ago and it shows no update available and its supposed to be able to be updated through connection of your m8 to your pc and all that shows is the option to repair and update is not showing on there either ?

I just like taking the ota, so I restore a stock back up then flash old 4.4.4 firmware and flash stock recovery to find out no ota available did that last night now again a few minutes ago still no ota so flash back twrp and srom firmware and restore back to fluent 2.0.1 I guess I need to say f it and find something else to waste my time on lol.

I figured I just do the whole ROM as I would possibly make a Sprint thread? and can support over there so as to not get people confused here..

it's getting too clogged in here guys.

anyway, I changed the framework-res.apk apns, gps.conf and also build.prop to 8, and framework-res.apk apns fix. that should do hopefully all, but MMS, and yes that test is one app as that is all it took to get MMS for VZW so I'm trying the same for you guys, but I don't have much faith, sorry. to what I hope will work from a stock sprint kk ROM.

MMS, this is tricky, as the app that I used to get it fixed I don't have the proper Sprint file (and not sure where to get it). (Also, make sure that Operator name in settings is correct as well).

Sorry I am new to porting.

Upload is at 82% so shouldn't be too much longer, given that AFH doesn't screw me and pop out a wrong MD5.

FWIW - you can prob do a dirty flash over v1.0.0 without issue..

Been running her all day!!! Great work!!! I was expecting to run into the issue I've been having with the Lollipop ports and that is Google Music skipping streaming through Bluetooth... while using other apps on the phone while music is streaming causes skipping.. almost as if the rom can't quite spread the CPU around? But on your rom, this isn't happening.. I thought it was Kernel related.. and it may be, but I don't even know where to look.. so I flashed your rom this morning and streamed music 90% of my work day with ZERO glitches or skipping while using many, MANY apps at once during the streaming... ODD!!!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
thanks man.

just flashed the RUU.

pulling system now, and then making ROM. along with MOD Pack.

in the mean time enjoy v2.0 or v4.0 without any firmware bugs. :cool:

I am going to be making the Verizon official ROM like I have been the past LP ROMs.

I will cook into the ROM certain things, but I expect you to flash the corresponding MOD Pack (even if you don't want a single MOD from it.. it will still flash certain things that I expect you to flash - it won't hurt, just makes it easier on my part). - Will most likely edit it more to remove things like 2g only - things that we won't ever use or have a use for..

I will try and be baking these into the ROM:

Advaned Power Menu

Long Press Back 2 Kill

Recent 2 Menu > Settings > Display

App Ops > Settings > Security

Lock Button in status bar

23 Quick Settings Tiles up from 12

Flashlight toggle

Homescreen Menu MOD

Removed Signature Checks

Call Recording MOD

Reduced Nav Bar size to 42dip

Added Clear All button to Recents apps

Removed Search bar from Recents apps

Added a few HTC apps.

- If you want any more MODs - flash the Ported Lyapota MOD Pack
