blobs + ril - gave me no sim card/no service, restoring nand and testing just the blobs.zip after unless someone beats me to it.

and oddly just the blobs .zip says Roaming Indicator On, instead of verizon wireless.. but it isn't roaming
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schneid:
No way. I saw "The Blob" as a child. Still haven't recovered. :D
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Well, in case mine is any different than the one [MENTION=2972841]enewman17[/MENTION] posted, I'll attach it here.

UPDATE: Use the one here instead.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
If the ones Captain just uploaded don't work, here are the vzw blob files from today's CM nightly.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Backup made, will try both of the ones above and report
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Strange the one Capt uploaded days I'm on Sprint network?

I do have full bars though..
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
That's quite strange. Have you deleted your telephony database after flashing these blobs to ensure everything is being detected properly? I should've included that in my updater-script (I usually do).

I'll update it now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
No, I didn't
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
That is weird... the files are exactly the same i just compared them. Only difference was the ones i uploaded had 2 other libs "libqmi_client_helper.so and libqmiservices_ext.so"
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Updated zip that deletes the telephony database as well.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
it may have to do with the eri.xml and apns.xmls i have in my framework-res.apk

I changed them out i forget which ones, but one says sprint (the one i use) and then i changed some out and got the roaming text :confused:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Still says Sprint
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I don't understand why the blobs would affect that. That's usually controlled by the eri.xml in framework-res.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Got the same message when flashing the Verizon signed zip but it went away immediately. Going to run for a bit...

EDIT: Still shows on lockscreen but works fine so far...

---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

Issue came back after RUU onto blobs.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
yea I don't get it either, I even pulled the apns.xml + eri.xml directly from our VZW MM RUU and flashed that again just to make sure everything was correct in there.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I use a custom eri.xml in my GPE port - I wonder if that one would show it properly?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Actually tried that as well.

The one from lyapota + your ROM + this ROM gave me Sprint.

And stock VZW MM RUU gave me the roaming indicator text, I left it for 10 mins and didn't change.

The signal did seem to be better, I wonder if can custom edit to make it say Verizon instead of Sprint. I haven't had time to go digging into the xmls yet.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
No dice on the blobs either. So frustrating! Still running though cause even with my issues it's still my favorite [emoji3]

why does facebook get stuck on this rom only.. i was on cyanogen and it worked fine..
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Can you provide more feedback, please?

We need to know what exactly is going on when you open Facebook, what does stuck mean? The app opens and doesn't work, etc. Also logcat. Without it anyone trying to help is blind. Next I can say that Facebook does indeed work just fine on this ROM, so it's isolated go your install and I would suggest a clean flash but if we can avoid this that is the goal. :good: :cool:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] johnzal:
sorry about the generic question.. what i meant is Facebook kept getting stuck when it would try to play a video. it would play the video under the failed one.. but after a couple of tries Facebook would just freeze.. hope fully this is what you need . thank you

try to post log cat but its to long .sorry first time doing this
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] extremx:
Can someone give me some suggestions on what to try to alleviate the lag i am having on my phone? I will have 3-4 second lag from time to time, general slowness, and slow load times. Some apps hang far more than others. Hangouts and Camera are the worst offenders.

Things i've tried.

-wipe dalvik/cache, seems to help, but for only a day or two. then i'm back to the slow. I was literally doing this every couple days at night just to keep me from throwing it against the wall.

-full factory reset and new rom install. Works for a about a week before the slowness returns.

-Removed xposed. I didn't notice any effect.

-watched a process viewer to see if anything was running away... nothing noticeable

-Phone is sitting at 21/24.32GB used.

Its sad when my daughter Galaxy S4 is faster then my M8 :/ I also have an N4 that is more responsive.

I'm running MRA58K.H12 at the moment. If you need me to provide further info i will be happy to do so.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] dlabadie:
Downloading H13 now. Anything we need to be aware of or is this just a security update? Dirty flash or Update okay? Or should we clean flash it? Do the H12 mods work with H13?

Thank you!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zekemo:
I experience lag also, its usually from waking the phone and its very sporadic. I use gravity box and am on H.13. I normally set the phone down and let it struggle though while its lagging.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] extremx:
How is this at all acceptable? Its like letting a child finish their tantrum before you can talk to them. It infuriates me every single time it lags and just sits there doing nothing. I opened the camera app the other day, 12 seconds before it would actually do something. :crying: GEL, Hangouts, Camera, and keyboard seem to be the worst offenders.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheNewNEXUS:
I feel like the lag varies for each person. I honestly get no lags for a good month, but sometimes, I change something when I flash/update, which changes my mileage. So it may not be the apps that you have, mainly the customizations. IDK, I usually stay away from xposed from the beginning unless your super desperate.

I think most people know this already. I know most people end up clean flashing and still have lag. If you have more lag than a galaxy s4, I will cry with you. My phone can run side by side with a 6p, because my brother has one (It'll sometimes lag behind it...). Try a different kernel if it helps, i.e., hypernova, clumsy
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Google Play Services is bugged. It FCs all the time on my M8, but on my Nexus, all Google apps are lagging to kingdom come. That would explain GEL, Hangouts, Keyboard, Camera,
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Strange, I have zero lag.

This is my set-up:

I downloaded all the app updates (the ones you find in data/app - but are also in system like Gmail) (I had about 30), I then added them into the ROM (into system/app + system/priv-app), and clean flashed so that when I boot up for the first time I have zero apps needing updating and all the new apps are now in system, instead of having like 25+ apps that need an update then they are all in data/app. I personally move them back into system every time a system app gets updated. (Don't try this unless you know what you're doing). I attached my data/app folder to show you how little is actually in it, just my 3rd party apps, no system apps.

Also, Playstore and GMSCore.apk (Google Play Services) update behind the scenes. You can tell usually, as the Playstore will FC or something. (Google play services actually updated yesterday, and came with a new icon as well v9.0.83 (438-121911109) Before that we had a Playstore update to v6.5.08.D-all)

These can also be found in data/app. Vendingxxx is the playstore and gmsxxx is Google play services. You can bring them into system as well. I am not sure if this will help with anything, but this is just my personal setup, and I get amazing battery life (8 hours SOT, on wifi only and no gaming, I posted a SS a few pages back) and zero lag.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
No problem posting a long logcat - more of a chance to try and find the issue. Upload it to something like Dropbox.

I personally would try a clean flash, or wait and see if others can chime in here and post their feedback if they are also having the same issue.

Anyone having an issue with GPS not finding your location? I found that when Smart Lock Trusted Places are enabled GPS Location doesn't work. When Trusted Places are disabled GPS works fine.

I think that your ROM is well all the time:)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ecs1984:
I just RUU'ed yesterday and it thankfully solved my recent 4G issues, but I am still having wifi issues, mostly only on my home router. It seems totally random, but I get suuuuuper slow download speeds on my phone, while my tablet and laptop on the same network are downloading the same files with the expected speed.

Setting my phone back up after the RUU, all my apps downloaded quickly from Play Store. But a few hours later, I tried to download music from Play Music and it stalled at 0% for 15+ minutes, and it took maybe 10 minutes to download a single 13MB APK. The same file took 30 seconds on my office wifi, and the music download was fast as usual using the wifi at my gym.

I mostly suspect my home router is the problem, but it seems too much of a coincidence that the problem started at the exact same time as my 3G/4G issues that forced me to RUU. And as I mentioned above, the same router works fine with all other devices in my home.

Any ideas as to how I could further diagnose this?

Everything else with H13 is running great, thanks again to [MENTION=2972841]enewman17[/MENTION] for the great work on this ROM, and to [MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION] for the frequent support and the great dark theme :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ecs1984:
Spoke too soon, a few hours ago I lost both 4G and 3G out of nowhere. I saw the roaming R icon pop up briefly then everything was gone. I dirty-flashed and got 3G back momentarily, but now I've lost data entirely.

I am a bit confused about the options available under Settings>More>Cellular Networks>Preferred network type. When I saw the roaming icon, I quickly went to those settings and saw that I had been switched to "LTE / GSM / some 3rd thing I can't remember". I switched it to "LTE" or "4G", not sure. The reason for my confusion is that I now have entirely different options to choose from. What would cause those options to suddenly change? Screenshot shows my options now, what should they be?

I also know I've seen a setting to change APN, but not seeing that now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Wish could help, on Verizon , this is what I get.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schneid:
I see what Andy sees. All I know is NEVER fool with the radio settings or its NO 4G and back to RUU again.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ecs1984:
Yea I did nothing to trigger the change honestly, I never mess around with those settings. I have terrible reception in my office, and when I saw the roaming icon, I went to see what was happening in the Settings and saw that I was on that GSM combo option. Now those options are totally different (as shown in my previous screenshot).

Gonna try another RUU tonight and if that fails, it's probably gonna be Nexus 5X time :cowboy:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] EvoEryk:
Anyone know if HTC plans on updating the M8 GPE to 6.0.1 anytime soon?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thelolotov:
Yeah, the settings are hidden now, you can use this to get at them: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.naskit.android.apnsettingsshortcut&hl=en

I did the same and managed to get my 4G back without another RUU.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Was wondering if anyone is running H13 on top of Lollipop firmware as opposed to the MM firmware? Battery life has been going down the drain lately with the same level of use, so was wondering if downgrading the firmware from MM to LP would yield better battery life?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Alexcxvtr:
Anyone knows which of these two versions should I install during Aroma Installer?

1. GPe, GSM, International etc

2. CDMA Verizon

The reason I'm asking this is because I happen to own a Verizon M8 but live in Europe and using it as an unlocked device.

I know our device is a CDMA one, but the "International" qualifier in the first option got me a bit confused.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
You should choose the 2nd option which is CDMA device on a GSM network

1 GSM device...

2 CDMA device on GSM

3 Verizon

4 sprint

Thanks mate.

My 4g appears somewhat consistent, but my home wifi is beyond slow. Often a solid connection with no Internet access. Did you make any progress in diagnosis?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] darthjader:
Anyone having MMS issues? I seem to be able to receive them just fine, but I can't send any.

Running the latest ROM with Hypernova, on the latest Verizon firmware.

Edit: reflashed the ROM and everything is working again, so nevermind!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ecs1984:
Unfortunately no progress with the wifi. I did a second RUU and have had solid 4G since then (knocking so hard on wood), but the home wifi is still hilariously slow most of the time. I also get the "Connected, No Internet" status from time to time. I have had issues on other networks (hotels, work) recently, but it seems more frequent at home (or maybe more noticeable since I obviously am in my own home a lot).
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zekemo:
I had this issue and fixed it by forgetting networks and reconnecting to them.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jakegub:
I just installed the H13 build "Stock" meaning non-rooted. This seems to have been the problem when I've tried to encrypt my device for Exchange compatibility with my work account.

Can I re-flash to go through the Aroma installer and choose the system-less root or can it be done with the SuperSU app? I'm S-Off BTW. Thanks in advance.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Yes you will be able to root after encryption but you don't need to re flash the ROM just flash the latest SuperSU zip for systemless root.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jakegub:
Thank you, and I apologize if the answer is somewhere out there easily, but all of the Recovery-flashable files I see for SuperSU say that it "requires rooted device".

My two questions are:

1. Can I just flash a SuperSU zip file to achieve root (even though it says it requires a rooted device)?

2. How do you know which (latest, beta, stable) has the systemless exploit?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
1. Yes you can flash a supersu zip to achieve root. This is actually what I do in the AROMA installer, at the end I just run the super su installer zip.

2. I think since 2.51 the script in the installer will automatically choose the root method, there were some flags you could set to make it install a certain way but in latest beta its all been worked out. Just flash the latest beta like you did the rom in TWRP and it will install as systemless. https://download.chainfire.eu/964/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip?retrieve_file=1

PS Vue Mobile

Having trouble getting the android playstation vue app to work.

Have it set up in rootcloak but still seems to know I'm rooted and won't support my device.

If you're having BT issues on multiple ROMs after a full RUU then you're probably right, hardware might be dying.

Others:

Are these recent Bluetooth issues all happening on H14? I have H13 which is rock solid, and was just about to flash H14 to get security updates, but after seeing these reports I might stay on H13.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nomisunrider:
I have had no bluetooth issues with H14
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] king_david43:
I'm gonna post this here too. Maybe someone here can help me. Lately I haven't been able to use h.14. whenever I flash it, it seems good at first. I set up all my Xposed stuff and apps. Then either a few hours later or (in my case yesterday) a few days later the notification panel breaks. I get notifications but nothing shows up and I can't swipe down from the notification shade to access the quick settings. It makes no sense to me. I have tried removing all Xposed apps one by one to see if one was the cause. Even uninstalled Xposed completely. Other there isn't really anything else installed except some apps. I was wondering if anyone else ran into a similar problem and could help me out.

I've also made sure I'm in the latest marshmallow firmware.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] zekemo:
Will it work fine without installing xposed? Try a clean flash and no xposed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] king_david43:
Alright I'll try that and report back if anything goes wrong
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] king_david43:
It seems to be OK without xposed but I would really like to use xposed for added customization. I may have to try each module day by day to narrow down the culprit.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thelolotov:
I have occasional dropouts, but the biggest issue I have been having is sometimes with a reboot (especially if my battery died and it just dies before it can shut off) it will lose or reset a ton of apps and settings, usually including my BT pairings.

Yes, it must be one of your xposed addons. I'm using xposed on H14 with no issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] GTX1:
Just wanted to throw my $0.02 in the discussion here since it has been a while since my last post on XDA. The last time I flashed anything on my phone was the H6 build, which my phone tells me I downloaded on 11/24/2015. Not sure how accurate that is though. :P

Anyways, I never flashed anything else because my phone was rock solid with incredible battery life. These last 2 weeks my battery has been draining to 50% by mid day and I'm not even on my phone most of the day. I also work from home and 99% of my phone's life is on WiFi. So, the first thought that came to my mind was to do a factory reset, but if I'm going to do that, lets just throw the newest build on the old beast, right?

Earlier today I updated everything. Radios, firmware, recovery, the H15 build, everything. It's just as rock solid as it was back in November. Just did the factory wipe and went at it. So to anyone reading this thread that did what I did and didn't flash for a long time because of how great the ROM is, don't be nervous. Should work just fine after updating all the backend stuff.

The highest "mobile radio active" I am seeing is 26 or 27 minutes, so IDK? It's the first I am hearing of the bug.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I am getting the bug, but with 5 hours screen on time I can't complain.

What is the fix module? Something to do with Xposed?

http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.mobileradioactivefix
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Interesting, thanks. Don't use Xposed, depending on how my battery does on 4G compared to WiFi which I was on 90% of this past couple days with the 5+ hours screen on time.

Those using this Xposed module fix, do you still see the radio active bug in stats, or does it just decrease it? I read up on the devs thread but am curious as to how it's working.

Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sob372:
Finally got this to boot the other day, runs great. Imo, By far best running gpe port I've tried. Thanks for this dev
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] EvoEryk:
The bug won't show up if you are constantly on WiFi, when I tried the fix module on .H10 and Beyond stock kernel it didn't work and I was still being affected by it. I'm just wondering if it's still an issue on Hypernova.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
From what I read it gets activated once you:

Enable mobile data (with wifi off)

-Use mobile data (now the bug was triggered)

-Disable mobile data

-Use your device normally and then some hours later look for the mobile radio active time on the battery stats.

I am on hypernova and by my screen shot shown above the bug is present. (However I don't use Xposed)

I did enable mobile data with wifi off, and used it about 10% of the time so the bug was triggered and my battery was great.

Albeit I was on wifi 90% of time as mentioned so curious how my battery will do with more mobile data usage.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] EvoEryk:
Alright, thanks for the input. Hopefully Marshmallow is released soon and fixes all these issues.
