[Sprint HTC One (M9)] atroph:
Just wanted to drop a quick line and say thanks!

For the most part I usually flash some version of CM and have done so for years. When I was using my M7 I noticed that my daughters phone would have signal and I would not. I always thought the CM on the M7 was not as robust radio wise at it should be with the apn issues and such. I also didn't like the fact that if I had to update my PRL I would have to nandroid, flash back to stock, install the apn in EPST, and then restore my nandroid. Just seemed a little too time consuming IMO.

Fast forward to today and I picked up a M9 and, well, kinda like sense. I have had no issues with it so far and I wanted to stick to something "stock-ish" so that I don't lose functionality like the stock camera app, FM Radio, Peel Remote (I used smart remote on CM) and other items that rely on the sense framework. I really think that the stock camera app is really nice as compared to Google camera that I used on CM. My main issue was LTE tethering being an add-on to my plan which is something that CM covered. Seeing that LTE tethering is working with this ROM I flashed it without issue.

Thank you for taking the time to remove the crap that carriers feel they need to install on a device and leaving us with a more enjoyable stock sense experience.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
the firmware (recovery inside) can be found in the RUU thread
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mswlogo:
ROM is running great. To soon to tell but my gut feeling is battery is much better. Donations sent !!

Wow, Optimizing Apps took a long time (I didn't time it but I think it must have been at least 20 min). Not a complaint !!

Couple questions.

Is there a place that explains what the mods do?

I can see things like restore prism to stock or restore system.ui to stock etc.

But I don't know what changes I would get from those respectively.

I know if I dug through threads I could figure it out. And I'm sure I've read it. But I don't have it memorized ;)

I wouldn't mind restoring the notification bar to stock (certainly no biggy). I would not even bother if I have to do it manually, but if it was a built in mod I might.

I don't know if any of the mods already do that and what else I might be giving up if I do.

Also is it possible to disable Autohide of Navigation buttons (Back, Home, Recent Apps). I'm constantly flicking up to get them too appear, then I mis-flick and accidently start google now.

Is it possible this might be as simple as a build.prop setting?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] deakelem:
is the v1.0 rom built from svn r12? or an earlier revision. Thanks Also i flashed the systemui attachment you gave me for the stock battery and selected it in arroma but its still the modified battery icon. Not sure if i had to do anything else.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
thank you again for your generosity!!!

yeah that first boot is painful...I can't tell you how many times I've had to sit thru that :(

usually the mods have a short description...ie "this will add the default Prism from ROM"....basically in the future when there are other mods, this default mod will return you back to the original file from the ROM. In the case of Prism & SystemUI, currently there are no other mods, so those mods have no purpose.

If you are requesting a pure stock SystemUI w/ the stock statusbar, I can certainly add it :).

I'm not sure about the auto hide nav buttons, I'm sure it's possible to disable, but we'll have to search for that. I usually just tap the screen to make them re-appear.

it's actually built from r11.....r12 was just some app updates, and I see there's been more updates since then, lol.

I'll check the battery mod again, when I flashed it yesterday it worked.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mswlogo:
Ok, I understand now on the mods, just an empty frame work. Now it makes sense.

I just tried the tap screen and it did nothing. I'm often in HTC Internet Browser when I lose them and want them.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
I guess I don't see this too often. I don't use HTC browser, only Chrome. I went through several of the stock apps and didn't find any where the nav icons disappear, only HTC browser. Have you seen this in other apps?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] ReproOne:
I'm impressed, as that was it! I also realized after reading your answer that I read about it a while back on possibly the M8 forum.

Now, if you keep the ROM up to date with the OTAs, and we get s-off to flash firmware, the phone will have a "stock" look with some great modifications.

Thank you for the ongoing expert assistance!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Jm@n:
Htc browser is made to hide the sb and navigation bar, simply pulling down from anywhere or swipe up from the bottom brings them both back. As for mods I have a system ui apk with stock sb but has add up to 21 toggles, always show menu added and wifi activity if you want?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mswlogo:
Gallery, Youtube, MX Player Pro (probably any Video Player), HTC Browser, Camera. Actually the Camera does it really nicely though. It keeps 3 dots there when it hides and you don't need to swipe.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] knightwolf123:
Thanx for the rom. I did want to let you know however I'm not able to utilize native Hotspot. Perhaps I may have missed something but just wanted to bring this to your attention.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] mswlogo:
Did you dirty flash by chance?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] schmeggy929:
It is just a more complete clean system. It is basically starting from scratch that's all. RUU is firmware and software.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] ReproOne:
I'm reading on another thread that the PRI may not be being updated from the modified firmware. I'm trying to confirm? I want to make sure all aspects of the device are updated and current, especially anything that will help the radio and battery!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Aldo101t:
it updated for me ok
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] ReproOne:
So, you just applied the modified firmware and the PRI updated (not PRL)?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Aldo101t:
Yep

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

Prl stayed the same

PRI is 1.11_003 now
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] barleysoda:
dirty flashed the Bad Boyz Beta over the stock 5.1. The screen is constantly turning on and off while charging. Also "Power" settings crashes in settings. If no one else has this issue then I will do a full wipe and reinstall the beta.

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 PM ----------

Can you give us the new checkout? I only have the 5.0 SVN on Rev24
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61663977&postcount=569

fyi---the ROMdb app will cause the screen to come on occasionally until I officially update the database...but not constantly, def wont cause power crashes....I'd like to get some feedback from anyone who has flashed v2.0, if all looks good, it goes official...
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] volk9029:
No problem with power settings , clean flash. The only problem is with power settings is on stock rom I can actually choose what I can turn on when use power settings. Say I want to just reduce brightness and leave the rest untouched.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] ReproOne:
I am starting the process. I first flashed the firmware and had it attempt to restart. After about 10 minutes of being stuck on the htc one screen, I shut it down and flashed the new ROM. I then immediately reflashed the firmware. I'm waiting now to see if it boots.

....

it has progressed to the optimizing apps

So, OMJ may want to chime in, but it appears one should apply his ROM (after wiping data, cache, dalvik, and system) then restart to apply modified firmware...then restart phone...
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] volk9029:
The string is wrong for settings icon. The rest is looking good so far. Thank Bad Boys.

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

You don't need to reflash firmware. Just flash the rom.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] ReproOne:
I figured as much, but wanted to be sure since I restarted while it was in that boot image.

Maybe the steps should be wipe, flash ROM, restart download mode to flash firmware, then restart phone.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] volk9029:
You can flash firmware, then from download mode, boot to bootloader. From there boot in recovery and flash the rom.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
I'm comparing a stock m9 w/ BB, in power saver, I dont see a difference

after flashing the firmware, you should have gone directly to recovery to flash ROM...

it really doesn;t matter if u flash rom 1st or firmware, the bottom line is dont boot to OS until both are flashed

yeah I noticed that, I'll get that fixed...you're referring to the app drawer icon right?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] predator1584:
I believe he's referring to the name of the Settings App, it's called "Wireless and networks." other than that, this is smooth and great!
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] SRQ Rick:
All looks good other than settings icon name.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] SRQ Rick:
What is the star icon?

Never mind....Googled it.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] BUBBA DUB'S:

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] ReproOne:
I'm still reconfiguring everything, but the only thing I noticed so far is the name of the Settings icon is incorrect (as already mentioned).
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] volk9029:
I was referring to this. I took a picture of m7, since I didn't have time to reflash stock rom.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
must have changed from m7 days...I don't see that on stock 5.1 on m9
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] dottat:
Settings for power saver did change from 5.0.2 to 5.1. Happened on vzw as well. Disappointing they did that to be honest.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:

May have to flash tonight, been waiting weeks for the OTA hopefully the radio is fixed. I was also gonna wait till BadBoyz was updated since I have been using this rom since I got the phone and love it. I take it I should download latest badboys via SVN? or use the direct link? I'm not gonna do a dirty flash

my bday is tomorrow and this is an awesome bday present so thanks a ton!!!

FYI - The vibrate motor on my m9 slowly died.. its getting replaced but just wanted to throw that out there to everyone in case someone else had the same issue.. my phone has never been dropped and is in prefect shape so IDK what caused it. Something to just look out for i guess

The HTC Sense keyboard is no longer offering spelling suggestions after the update. This has made my texts garbled messes of nonsense. What happened to the autocorrect?

Thanks so much for the update, it's really swell apart from this (small but important) issue!

[edit] Waaaaaait a minute. I did a dirty flash from the last Bad Boyz ROM. That makes me a dirty boy. Let's clean up my act a bit, hm? Just for reference, clean flash = wipe cache, dalvik, data, and system, correct? Will my app data be automagically restored from Googles Invasive Cloud? Let's find out.

Everything pretty smooth here. A few things though.

A small bug... After a restart the MIUI battery bar color reverts back to original white color when you navigate to systemUI MODs menu from the bad boys tweaks.

Secondly, 2 of my 70 apps won't install that ran fine on 5.0.2. I get the unknown 504 error. Pretty popular apps. Can someone confirm if this is my issue or not.

MX Player and Map my Run.

Thanks
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
I've seen the same on the miui battery bar, I'll see what I can find

I get the same error trying to install those apps
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shizzel1211:
I have a couple questions. I just picked the Sprint m9 up yesterday. I have not taken the update yet., should I take the OTA before flashing the rom? Also do I need to be s-0ff or just unlocked and rooted? Been reading all night and just want to be clear. Thanks for any and all help.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Sim-X:
awesome

If I were you I would s-off immediately before you do anything. Why you don't have to, it will make life a lot easier if you want to get into flashing. Once your are s-off it's unlocked all the way, you can do as you please run OTA's, firmwares, roms, recovery whatever without having to worry about anything.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
1st, s-off is not required but definitely recommended, just makes things alot easier.

if u do get s-off, do so before updating. if you're 100% stock, there's no harm in taking the ota

if u stay s-on, take the ota to get the new firmware, then just unlock, flash twrp recovery, then ROM
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] shizzel1211:
Thanks OMJ.

Updating now. I really apreciate the help.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] BUBBA DUB'S:
Anyone have a zip to flash that gets rid of the text under apps on home screen?

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] pmacevad:
Activating the long press volume skip track MOD does not seem to be functioning for me, none of the options for long press volume for that matter. Should the tweaks app be requesting su permissions because it isn't. I think I remember on previous versions it doing so. Could be wrong, could this be the culprit if so? Otherwise everything seems quite functional. Great job team!

Followed the procedure above, downloaded via svn, full wipe. Worked great for about 2 hours, then the screen started jumping around( best way to describe it) Rebooted, it would work fine for a few mins, then the screen would jump around. Tried several reboots. Didn't seem to fix it for more than a few mins.

Flashed backup and no issues. Any ideas? Also I am s-off.

Thanks

Big fan of color navbar... It's not working on 2.0... Besides from that everything I use is working fine .
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Sim-X:
That's very weird, I haven't flashed the new version yet but something must be up. I would try running an RUU (it's safe now that you are s-off). Then flash recovery fresh, rebuild your rom and try again.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] curiousGeorge:
Bug report! Maps always crashes (this is after a clean flash) when you go to navigation, and click on the bus/train and then click for the times (Depart at/ arrive by). Of course it worked fine in the old release (5.0.3). I've tried reflashing a few times, no use. Also tried rolling back to Maps 9.8. Still no good. Anybody have a fix?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] OMJ:
not sure, I can reproduce, I also tested on stock & it was good...I pulled a log, we'll see that helps.

The link in the Google store is the wrong one. The Amazon prime video app is available through the Amazon app store. You'd need to log into the store app in order to download the video app (also you'll need a prime account). I was able to use it on bad Boyz 5.0.2, but it doesn't appear to install on 5.1. Would a logcat capture why it wouldn't install?

Other than this minor hiccup, the rom is running great. Thanks again to the Bad Boyz team for all that you do for us.

I have tried doing the firmware flash through fastboot and cannot get it to work.

Downloading the RUU right now, but im running Windows 10 so that might be causing my issue.
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] deakelem:
you s-on or s-off?
[Sprint HTC One (M9)] xx3rdwrightxx:
S-Off

The fastboot flash instructions had said untested but I had never had a problem doing it that way in the past but it wouldn't complete this time.

It did it's initial flash, then it's supposed to reboot and flash again but it would just quit out on me. So I tried flashing again and doing a fastboot reboot but it got stuck on the splash screen. I understand it sometimes takes a while on the splash screen after flashing as I'm not new to doing any of this, but this went on for 45 minutes straight and I couldn't manually reset the phone by holding the power button. I ended up using the previous RUU and getting the phone to boot again, took the OTA, then flashed 2.0 with no problems.

Sorry for the long winded response :)

[Sprint HTC One (M9)] Aldo101t:
go to recovery and restore a backup, or flash a 5.1 rom, I think your firmware is installed. hold power+volume up. if that doesn't work press power+volume up+volume down and will get you to bootloader

I tried to Install the 2.0 ROM and that succeeded... but tried Firmware again and fail. Download mode says SD NOT MOUNTED. Back into TWRP and I get some message about being Read Only so I swipe for "Allow Modifications" and it seems that my backup is finally restoring but I would like to take this upgrade if possible.
