My double tap status bar screen off was disabled due to peek being enabled, I disabled peek and made a few test calls, and that seems to be the root. Cheek touches it, peek reads a single touch, drops down the status bar. Disabled, and good to go (minus the fact that now you can't peek, you have to unlock the phone to see status bar, but I can live with that over constantly putting calls on speaker or mute.

Found a fix by myself

Since no one had replied to my post or provided suggestions, last night I decided to retry the install but this time choose all the default options for rooted build, full build and select BusyBox. The install was fine, upon reboot I had cell connectivity. I added the APN info for MetroPCS so I could have data connectivity. I rebooted, no more cell connectivity and in the Cellular Network Settings, no menu for Network operators. There was an option for CDMA, which I checked, something came up for RV, which I set (I don't exactly remember), but suddenly I had cell connectivity. I rebooted, and then everything was fine. I made some test phone calls send and receive, and, so far, everything seems to be working okay.

The only remaining question I have is, why is BusyBox necessary for install? When I google'd it, didn't seem like I needed the app, but obviously I was wrong.

I had a few stuttering problems but was able to eliminate them by playing with the settings on V4A. When I updated to H10, I skipped LolliViper and just installed Viper 4.6 from the second thread in my previous post. I've had no stuttering and no bugginess, and the sound is the best I have heard from any phone. M8 VZW, Beyond Stock kernel, Xposed, Dragon-Fi audio without Dolby.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Thank you SO much for this. I'm VZW M8, hypernova, xposed and could not find a way to make Viper work. And I really needed it, it's jus tthe best audio there is. So very thankful for the tip. It's working great for me right now. So much better than the Goolgle Music Player EQ.

This is great news! The random shutdowns when the battery gets below 30% has been driving me crazy (not limited to this ROM).

I wish I read this earlier... I just decided to order a new battery and try tearing apart the phone to replace it myself (looks like a very tedious project).
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cjeffcoatjr:
So, I installed this two day ago, on the second full day, and so far so good, except one thing. The notification LED continues to blink after I open the notification, a s won't go away unless I restart...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Can't really comment on this. The issue I've had is when my phone is plugged in and is fully charged, if I swipe away a notification before I unplug it the light will blink until I plug it back in. Not quite the same situation but try plugging it in for a second see if will stop blinking.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cBreezy22:
I ran into this issue as well a few days ago. Restarting was the only way it stopped blinking. It hasn't done it in a few days now though.

Is it safe to assume that the MMS issue is linked to the issues with MM? I wasn't aware MM had any issues prior to experiencing it.

Has anyone running xposed not had a problem with MMS? I didnt install it on my latest flash and am really missing the force kill feature...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
I'm running xposed using Google Messenger app. No issues on sending MMS for me. Sometimes I won't auto receive an mms on a group text so I'll have to manually download. But otherwise, no issues on this version of the ROM for me.

Anyone having issues with low quality MMS? When I was on a Sense ROM, MMS pictures would be sent and come through as a much higher resolution, but now they look like garbage. Is there any way to increase the quality?

Wonder how fast enewman17 works his magic to update the ROM?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jsauder2:
will the Verizon update actually add anything to this? there is no Verizon gpe, so I think you're basically going to get a firmware update. maybe a few very minor changes if Verizon updates anything with APN's rt something down those lines, but I doubt it. I think the update will impact sense based roms more since they'll now have an official base to work with instead of porting from another carrier.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Updated firmware doesn't require a ROM update :confused:.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] abtxpress:
Their isn't anything in a vzw ROM for us for him to add to gpe. All we get from the update is firmware which is on us to flash. New radios come with the firmware so maybe I'll get better reception in my basement. Lol
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
another h10 build

I know it's not an update but I made some more changes to the installer and need some testers.

First I made this a unified build for GSM and Verizon so I don't have to upload different builds when AROMA makes everything easier for me.

I'm using the system.img and then making it grow to fill the partition. Before I need to use SuperR kitchen and extract the files for a file based install. This saves me this step, I know lazy... but it also ensures the permissions and whatnot are correct because it was set by OTA's...

Added the flags for super user install. By default in systemless root it defaults to bind the xbin folders and it causes the SaftyNet checks to fail. So that's fixed now.

Updated supersu to 2.68 this also fixes the symlink issue for Android pay.

Added busybox installer by osm0sis' it will detect where to install busybox for either root method.

If you choose a rooted install there are a few extra scripts and fixes to install if you'd like. If you have any issues with the scripts being in /system/su.d then in a root explorer move the /system/su.d forlder to /su. Or in a terminal emulator with su granted you could do... mv /system/su.d /su then reboot.

I made some more changes to the build.prop for Verizon that might help, along with some changes to the framework-res that I did in the 5.1 ROMs. I'm not sure if I had already tried it... I don't think I did. There are some more values added and a different apn.xml that point to these extra folders. I'm hoping this fixes Mms issues and any other apn and data issues, hoping it doesn't cause the CDMA T-64 or whatever to display instead of Verizon but thats why this is a test. Also added /system/etc/apns-conf.xml won't hurt nothing but includes lots of apns for cdma networks.

Not sure what else. Please test and report back a clean install would be best but dirty flashing should be ok too.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cntryby429:
Can you send & receive mms while on Wi-Fi?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Another little test. Made a couple more changes to the framework-res and build.prop

Doesn't matter what build your using, Backup and flash... With some of the changes what I'm interested in is this going to show the T-CDMA64 instead of Verizon in the status bar.

FYI, if it doesn't work then when you restore your backup there is no need to restore anything more then the /system.

still shows Verizon Wireless in status bar after installing this on the 3-5-16 test build
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Right on, Let me know how data hand off between 3G and LTE goes, make sure data and phone all work well in your travels... Try and send and receive some Mms with hangouts and google messenger something other then the Verizon Messenger if you even use that. Make sure you try to send and receive those Mms while connected to WiFi. If all that stuff works well then I don't think I can do anything else to make this anymore rock solid.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] roaringcrown:
Yes.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
Ok so I clean flashed the latest test build with the test patch right after and I get the T-CDMA 64 for carrier in the statusbar.

That sucks... well I guess I know what works and what doesn't now. Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ahpatel:
I should've mentioned that I did a dirty flash. Maybe that explains why I still see Verizon in the status bar.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thekwijibo:
Would any changes with the data handoff between 3G and LTE and the MMS be from the VZW_Test.zip, or the recent changes to the installer/build?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Yeah the only change to that little test zip was the eri.xml in the framework-res... other then that the build in the OP is the latest with all the recent changes.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
Great Job on this build man, with it I noticed that the signal bars don't go empty anymore. Sometimes I be in a spot where a stock Sense Rom would get 3 bars but on the GPE rom it would have 0 bars, this build seems to fix that. Still testing...

EDIT: Spoke too soon, it still randomly shows 0 bars. None the less its still a solid build with the MMS over wifi.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cBreezy22:
This is probably a stupid question, but I see there are H6, H8, H9, H10 in the downloads. What's the difference in the files? I always thought it was newer version but I just realized the files were all updated today so thats why im asking.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] abtxpress:
H10 is the current build with Google's security updates. H9,8 and so on older builds.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ahpatel:
I was I the road for a few hours today... I noticed that in more rural areas, status bar shows T-CDMA64 but in certain zones it reverted back to showing Verizon Wireless.

Mms appears to work while connected to Wi-Fi or LTE, using Evolve SMS but I haven't had the struggle other have had work SMS so I can't definitively say this did anything for me.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Orig_Pinn:
Ok. Sorry for the noob post but I have an issue and I'm not sure if I caused it or not.

Coming from CleanROM. I did a full wipe and chose the first option when installing. (Stock ROM / no root) or something to that effect.

Installation seemed to go just fine and rebooted the system. Now I am stuck on the boot animation. Has been there for at least 25 minutes.

So... What did I do wrong?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
If you don't mind using xposed, Gravity box has that and tons of other useful mods. Links are in the op.

Make sure your using TWRP 3.0.0-1

do all the usual wipes before flashing with TWRP then do a full wipe with the installer. First boot shouldn't take much more then 10-15 minutes. Just wipe and install again. I'm not sure what else to tell you to do.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Orig_Pinn:
So, even more noob question :)

how to I get back to recovery? Holding the power button does nothing. If I hold power and up volume it just reboots back to animation. Power and down volume does nothing.

I know this is not thread for this kind of question, but i don't know where to ask.

In faq section is written that this rom works with s-on, but i tried everything i know to flash it, but without success. Can't flash recovery, tried everything, even with DD command with temp root with kingroot.

When i try to flash firmware zip with recovery or even just image i'm always getting error that signature failed:

No matter which zip i tried or just recovery image.

This is screenshot from fastboot screen:

Is any way to flash this rom on this device?

Many thanks and sorry for a noob question, i don't own this device it is from my friend, but i read everything i could find for it to help him.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cntryby429:
It sure looks like you're locked and s-on so no, there's not much you can do. If you want to flash recovery, perm root, roms, etc then you need to run and pay for sunshine which will unlock the bootloader and turn s-off and permit these levels of flashing.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
If all you really want is twrp custom recovery then you need to go to htc dev and do the bootloader unlock then you'll be able to flash a recovery but thats it only recovery will flash... But that's really all you need to flash Roms and zips. The rest of the firmware needs s-off or official signed firmware from the ota. Like the post above there isn't anything else you can do except pay for sunshine and s-off.

You know I'm thinking now that HTC dev unlock doesn't support Verizon or Sprint devices.... So sunshine is your only hope.

I have a GSM device so I'm thinking about that, so if Verizon can't do the dev unlock then I need to change the OP cause on a GSM you can be s-on and flash Roms
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zogu:
It can't be unlocked using htcdev.

Thank you very much for your reply.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
HTCDev supports Sprint. Only Verizon doesn't allow unlocking. And SunShine requires the device to already be unlocked and rooted on firmware > KitKat, so that's not an option either. The only option for Verizon is unlocking/S-OFF via JavaCard. There's a thread in the Verizon section regarding it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Thanks for the clarification, been so long since I looked into what Sunshine supported and wasn't sure about Sprint and HTC dev but was almost positive Verizon wan't supported. That whole java card thing... pashaw... what a pain in the butt! No thanks Verizon. I've had lots of work phones that were Verizon and service was always so horrible I could never bring myself to use them for personal, then add in what they do to the phones... I'll stick with GSM networks and buy unlocked devices if necessary, even it it costs more.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] androiddude81:
Looks like it reverted back after a few hours. My phone prefers 3G for whatever reason ever sense I switched to this room. It will use LTE for a bit if I reset the radio but then reverts to 3G forever if the LTE signal gets low.

I tried an RUU and factory reset with stock recovery last week and it seemed fixed while using stock, but as soon as I came back to this ROM the behavior continued.

---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------

On a different note. Is their an HTC camera app version that works with this ROM?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schneid:
Have you tried VZW support. I was flaky last week. Did the 5.01 RUU, factory reset, then 6.0 Custom with TWRP, and then this ROM but still flaky. Called VZW and they were goin to send some signals to the phone which take several hours to fully take hold. Had LTE back stable the next AM. They also sent a new SIM arriving today. I know it's hard to believe VZW screwed something up but it's worth making the call.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Do the 4.4 RUU. This worked for me when 5.0.1 didn't.

Any help is appreciated.

I just tried installing the ROM with the carrier option Verizon as I have a Verizon device. I had previously chosen GSM because I unlocked the T Mobile bands 2,4,12 in addition to having a T Mobile SIM card inserted. It appears that I can not flash the GSM option on a Verizon phone. Is this the intended design?

Thanks,

Shane
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheNewNEXUS:
Usually I would clean flash after coming from another "foreign" build. So that means go over to WIPE and Advanced wipe and wiping Dalvik cache, cache, data, system, internal storage, and android secure. After that, you can do a factory reset wipe for the heck of it. Then flash the ROM. I do that every time I go from GPE to Sense, or from GPE to AOSP...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
It is intended to be like that. While nothing should prevent you from using T-MO using the Verizon selection in AROMA very little is done to the stock config. It's mostly the boot.img so if you want you could copy the the 2 boot images in the aroma/cdma folder, rename them and copy them over the stock boot images in the the root of the zip then reflash with the gsm option.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ShaneMA:
When trying this, I have replaced the two boot files and named them accordingly, but I am receiving an error from TWRP before Aroma even loads. The output is "Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file."

I assume this has something to do with a mismatch from the original file.

Thank you for helping out with this.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] :
Try wiping system and install the nonroot version. I believe Microsoft is blocking rooted devices (just like Android Pay). I 1-starred the apps in the store for that reason (and clearly stated why). Hopefully, they will change their stance with enough feedback.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
There is no signature on theses zips. Most likely it is the zip utility your using... Has to be a .zip and everything, meta-inf, aroma, system, boot.img & boot_root.img has to be in the root of the zip.

https://github.com/iBotPeaches/Apktool/issues/1116

Lyapota has created himself a framework-res-lyapota.apk to bypass having to edit the framework-res.apk directly.

Although, apktool.jar v2.0.2 seems to edit and not break the menu animations color, but I've heard the menu animations themselves aren't as smooth, but YMMV.
