Im sure the Mods do work, but my theme uses the Spark spinning icon, I was asking if the SVN has the same SystemUI.apk as the update. Anyways answered my own question, its the old 4G Icon, no biggie Ill reflash ROM again later.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
Okay, silly newbie question from someone that's far from newbie but just hasn't mucked about with HTC phones in a while:

If I'm on total complete stock, having bought my phone about a week or so after it's released on Sprint, then I unlock the bootloader, install twrp, root, s-off, etc then flash venom's ViperOneM9 2.3.1, with my Android version displayed as 5.0.2 ...

Do I need to do anything special aside from making sure to flash the latest twrp and the 2.11.651.19 firmware as listed under requirements?

I ask this because I haven't been able to install any 5.1 roms due to still being on 1.32 and haven't found actual *clear* instructions for upgrading to 1.40 that doesn't involve basically getting my phone totally back to out of the box, pre-twrp stock to be able to receive the OTA update
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] benny3:
If you are s-off then you can flash just the firmware package. Flash the modified that has the stock recovery removed which will keep TWRP intact.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
added the correct SystemUI to svn & also the SystemUI options zip on the http://badboyzromz.com/?page_id=16...

I'll add the ota update zip next, then re-up full ROM...

*edit* both ota update zip & full rom updated
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
Freaking THANK YOU. That's exactly what I needed to know. I was wondering why it seems like such a convoluted mess to update firmware on this phone when s-off usually makes that a simple flash and go process.

I'm downloading the rom now! I've been dying for 5.1 but because of the wrong firmware it either fails to flash or has no signal when I flash 5.1 roms. So excited!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
Yeah it shouldn't be a headache flashing Firmware update when s-off. You should be glad it fails to flash if you are using the wrong Firmware. LOL Also several different ways to flash it as well especially if your computer doesn't like your phone. If you are flashing correct firmware and no signal, flash firmware again. That usually solves no signal or wifi issues.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] rootlinux:
Perfection brother. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] rootlinux:
I am getting the itch to start making mods or themes again.

If I can stay focused long enough. LOL

DAMN head injury.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Aldo101t:
we need a inverted theme for this rom, lol
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] colormedroid:
I feel the same way but I haven't touched themes since the old school way of applying the modified files through an app and then rebooting. I can't seem to remember the name of it to save my life. :eek:
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] rootlinux:
I never liked that way. I always themed the apks then made a flash able zip.

I did some stuff for Android. Badseed mods and others. Most of my best work was on old winmo. Manila was my thing. Check ppcgeeks for my threads but I did quite a bit here as well. I hope to get back into it.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
Okay, so the Rom is working perfectly even though when flashing the firmware it flashed completely, no errors on the twrp 'terminal' output, but above the reboot button it said "failed" in red lol.

Obviously, it didn't REALLY fail.

Anyway, my new question is this: tethering doesn't seem to want to work, so do I need to install the mod by Chas for the m8?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
tethering does work, right out of the box...if u dirty flashed, u may need to delete /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/cdmaapn.db then reboot

also, you probably needed to flash the firmware 2x, as the aboot has to update 1st, then the 2nd pass will update the rest

oh, and since you're coming from 1.32, if you're only flashing 2.6.651.19, you're not getting all the updates, u need to flash 2.6.651.11 1st (2x), then flash 2.6.651.19...as u can see below, 2.6.651.19 does not update everything...personally I always RUU when going to a new version, that way you know you're getting all updates.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] colormedroid:
Anyone having trouble not being able to change the ringtone in sound and notifications? See attached image.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] colormedroid:
Lmao. Nevermind. Remember to turn your ringer to normal instead of silent, kids.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mrrogers1:
Rom update is still running great, thanks for the work fellas! [MENTION=506238]OMJ[/MENTION] I was wondering if the next time you are digging around in the settings.apk if you'd consider a tweak. Not sure if you remember but when we first got our M9's (the early adopters) the Power Saver option was customizable. For some reason, after I think our 2nd update they made it either ALL or nothing when it comes to the Saver mode.

I was wondering if you'd first consider adding and if so, looking to see if they actually just removed the *option in the code to break up the features of Power Saver or if they just bundled all options in the code and there is no way to break them out anymore.

Thanks man!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] pmacevad:
I think this was discussed before and if I remember correctly it's all or nothing.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] itsachirpthing:
The link seems to be broken on the OTA update download on the BB site. Thanks for the steady quality updates man. We appreciate your support!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
You have your phone on vibrate. Use the volume buttons to turn the ringer on first, then you'll be able to change everything.

---------- Post added at 11:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

I was just about to ask about this same thing. I'm coming from Venom and I'm used to being able to select what power saver actually does, like whether or not I want it to throttle cpu, keep the screen dim, etc
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
are u talking about the options you have in extreme power saver?

thx...fixed
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
Yeah its not as easy as it used to be. HTC apks don't decompile or recompile with Apktools or VTS anymore. I don't like using old Frameworks to make things work either. I just do with I can.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
I know this isn't what this thread is for, but it's much easier to ask you( since you already know the details) than starting a whole new thread and explain the situation again to be able to ask: how do I RUU without bricking, which files would I use, is there a way the doesn't wipe internal storage(/system and /data are fine, just not /sd ) and finally, is it possible to do with a flashable zip if I have issues with my pc?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mrrogers1:
No but that would be pretty flippin amazing if we COULD change those but that's not the ask. For the "Power Saver" we had the ability the decide what things we actually wanted turned off/modified to help save power. I'm not even sure which updated they decided that we weren't smart enough to decide which features to use and that we NEEDED to always employ every power saving setting but it's dumb (even dumber than removing multi-user for no reason).

Basically, they had these 4 power saving options broken out.

I'm going to flash back to one of your earlier roms (or maybe stock rooted) and see if I can grab screen shot for you which would also identify the settings.apk you could possibly grab the code from.

Thanks!

*Oh, funny question for you on the flashing firmware 2x, "you probably needed to flash the firmware 2x, as the aboot has to update 1st, then the 2nd pass will update the rest". Is this actually what we're doing when we flash via fastboot and the dialog says something like, "Flush firmware again...." or something like that? It's said "Flush" seems like for years which I never understood that but I did it as instructed and always works completely the second time.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
flashing either RUU will wipe internal...being s-off, I would just flash the 2.6 & 2.11 modified firmware (w/o boot & recovery)

ahh yes, I vaguely remember having those options, I rarely use either of the power savers....I'll take a look at that settings to see what I can find...it could also be in the htcpowermanager apk

yes, extreme power saver can be modded to change the available apps but it's a mod, so I'd have to mod the apk...if u or anyone else is interested, use this app to get the info of the app u want added/replaced.

I would need the package name & activity.

yes, the flush firmware again mean only the aboot/hboot was updated, and flashing the firmware again flashes the rest...
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mrrogers1:
Ok, I went back to BB1.1 and here were our options before the 5.1 update.

Build version 1.32.651.30

I'll see if the old settings or power manager apk bring it back but I'm sure something will get broken in the process. Hooray for backups [emoji3]

UPDATE:

[MENTION=506238]OMJ[/MENTION] seems like it is just HTCPowermanager that brings them back. Here is a log of the app crash >>>>> https://goo.gl/utfCBl
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
Looks like I'll have to RUU. Same thing as last time, good ol red "failed" but with no actual error.

Here's the log

Edit: OMFG I'M AN IDIOT. These are NOT to be flashed in twrp. I'm supposed to put them in the root of my storage and rename to OPJA2IMG.zip and let download mode flash them. So dumb. So so dumb.

For the Extreme Power Saver mod, I would love to swap out Messages for Messenger and swap out Email for Hangouts. [emoji106] [emoji106]

Thanks OMJ!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
One final stupid question: after flashing both firmware updates, should I re-flash the rom, or leave it as is?

I ask this, because, when I was flashing a version of venom it said something about not installing a number of enhancements that rely on the most recent firmware if I haven't updated. I'm just wondering if BB does the same, since it flashed (and worked fine) on 1.32 despite being a 5.1 rom.

I'd hate to think I'm missing out on the full experience somehow.

---------- Post added at 06:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:37 AM ----------

Oh, also...

In regards to the power saver options, this is from the 5.1 changelog

· power saver can no longer be configured in detail
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] rootlinux:
For those needing s-off, you can skip ruu and relocking bootloader by flashing ViperOne as you can s-off on it. Then come back to BadBoyz. I did in yesterday.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
cool, hopefully it won't be too hard to port over

lol, it happens to the best of us

I'll get it done today :)

No need to reflash rom, you're good
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
Thanks! I am having one tiny issue though. While I'm connected just fine in terms of having a data connection, it seems I'm unable to send or receive calls or texts. I've tried "activate device" in settings after updating profile and prl to no avail because it just keeps giving me "network error" after a few minutes.

The only thing I can think of that may have caused this was I had switched over to a cm12 build to see how it's coming along with a clean flash, then clean flashed back to bb and now all texts fail and phone calls either ring forever or play an automated message telling me I'm "not authorized to place a call to this number".

I checked my imei, etc and they all match what's on the box (I had a G2 that suddenly had the serial numbers of a totally different phone and couldn't activate because of it, yet could still make a data connection) so I'm totally stumped.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
[MENTION=524672]mrrogers1[/MENTION] see attached...

cm12 is probably what hosed it...I've never flashed cm, but I vaguely recall reading about issues coming from cm...not sure what the fix was, maybe RUU?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mildlydisturbed:
Got an interesting one on the latest release (dirty flashed, S-OFF, no issues other than this)

I have several Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 chargers. Most of them will show a green light when charging at QC2 speeds. Ever since the update none of them show QC2 charging, I max out at +1500 (as opposed to my normal +2200.)

Wife's phone still works fine. Only difference was me upgrading that I know of.

That a kernel, ROM thing, or is my phone just possessed?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mrrogers1:
I think the instructions to fix (and the warning about it) are in the OP of that thread. If you are s-off now, probably easiest to just RUU to make sure you get everything 100% back to normal.

BOOM! Thank ya! Works perfect and I'll see how it works today. Since I'm at computer all day Hangouts gets used there and Messenger and Phone are the other two ways people who need me can reach me. Thank you very much. [emoji106] [emoji106]

I'm seeing my charging light just fine (I'm on QC2.0 right now) but it's was red during the charge and it goes green when at 100%. TBH, I don't know what the lights did before. [emoji3]
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] agentfusion:
Yeah, I just grabbed the 2.11.651.19 RUU and backed everything up to my desktop. About to run it now. Wish me luck!

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

Well now I'm good and well baffled. RUU worked fine, during initial setup it said activation was successful, but still no calls or texts will work.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
might need to do a ##72786#, then reset or even a ##786#

worse case, call sprint, they're fix u up
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
Also if you still can't get activation to go through, make sure you are on wifi and try it again. I spent 2 hours at the Sprint Store when I got the M9. The techs couldn't get it to activate and I said, "have you tried through Wifi?" and went right through.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mildlydisturbed:
A bit of a follow up - I tried on multiple QQC2 chargers, none would kick into fast charge mode.

Flashed a different kernel, same issue, no QQC2.0 lights on the chargers indicating anything past normal charging was happening.

Shut the unit off, let it sit 10 minutes, turn it back on, bam, all QQC2.0 chargers are now showing it's charging.

Not sure if that's hardware, kernel, or gremlins... but I'm back.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
my money's on the gremlins, lol...only because I watched that movie the other day
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Aldo101t:
##786# fixes it but you need to know your MSL#. RESET and phione will activate. And be on a sense rom when you do it.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mrrogers1:
If it happens again, check phone temp with GSam Battery Stat. I think the thermal protection kicks in at like 110dec F or something. Could be pulling back the charge rate to save the phone.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mildlydisturbed:
I will - this was an issue I had for two days. Phone didn't seem hot. Wonder if I might have a temp sensor messed up.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] KennyG123:
OK..take 2! Returned the M9 I got for $295 on swappa as it was not silver but grey and had a bad G-Sensor so double tap on would not work.

Now won one on Ebay for $177 plus tax and shipping, silver/rose gold and I am back here, rooted and S-Off and ready to flash this Bad Boy!

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] P_M_G:
Just dirty flashed 2.3 and then sat thru optimizing since I didn't do the update one (OTA scared me off because I didn't read here first). Flashed a boot animation and the updated prism for 5x6 app drawer and it went into optimization again - now it's been sitting on "starting apps" (past the "optimizing apps" for over an hour. I've gotten some texts but can't get into the damn thing to read them.

Any ideas??

EDIT: Just got it to reboot, but now it's optimizing AGAIN??????

I need my phone back!!!!!

EDIT2: Crap. I'll never do this again without a nandroid. Somehow, finally got back to boot into recovery and reflashed 2.3...but when it started up, everything was wiped. No apps, no settings, like it was factory reset. Trying now to restore an older nandroid so i'll only lose 3 months worth of stuff versus all of it.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] deakelem:
build the rom from the latest svn build r41. I had no problems with this but i had a lot of weird initial install issues with the 2.3 prebuilt rom that was put on AFH. I might have the svn r41 rom already built as a zip let me check and i do i will put it on my fileserver for you to grab. That should save you some time.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] P_M_G:
Thanks, but I already went the other route. Restored a nandroid from July and reflashed.

I wish I knew what happened because I've never had an issue like this. Top it off, HTC Backup said I already restored to the device so my last daily backup wasn't available.

Lost about 3 months of text messages which is the worst of it honestly.

Like I said - I'll never do that again.

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] rootlinux:
Download Backup to Gmail and never lose texts or mms ever again.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
The reason was because you already had the lastest prism.apk from the Play Store then flash the 5 x 6 prism mod. That killed the bootup. Since the prism was hosed up you lost Sense data. Does suck, but now you know better, always backup before flashing stuff! :)
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
I don't know why the words OTA would scare anyone off when it comes to a custom ROM update...it was just to signify that the zip would update u to the next ROM rls, instead of flashing full ROM.

you probably already know your mistakes but I'll state anyways for others benefit..

-Always do a nandroid b4 flashing a new ROM or update only zip (OTA)

-If you had just flashed v2.3, there was no need to flash the latest modded prism...it's already in the ROM u just flashed...I'm not sure why it re-optimized, but the prism zip should not have initiated a re-optimize and for sure not wiped data
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] P_M_G:
I was just happy to see there was an update and wasn't thinking clearly. Lesson learned for sure.

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
hmm, that's odd...when testing a new update, I always clean flash...I just checked 2.3 ROM, SVN & the individual Prism update zip...all 3 matched, so it sounds like u were hit with gremlins :)

Ha...quite possible. All I did was update to newest Sprint update .19, then, unlocked (did not work on Win 10 lappy), Twrped, rooted, set up and flashed. Oh well...didn't think it would be THAT easy after all I went through to get an M9 at a great price...but all good now! Thank you sir!
