I simply stated my case. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone and/or trying to make it personal. Like I said, I appreciate the hard work many developers, such as yourself, do for this community. I have no way of knowing the kind of day anyone here is having, I just thought it was a little irrational to pull the rug out from under those testing and providing feedback. If the info I provided wasn't helpful, my bad. I was backing up another user who also didn't get the intended results.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
If you guys can't respect my choice to stop providing the MOD Packs then it shows exactly why I am not providing them anymore.

I don't owe anyone anything.

It's not that I'm having a bad day, this has been long building up.

As your post is clearly showing, you guys expect these things, that's when I have had enough.

I have been working on an aroma based MOD Pack, if I get it done, I'll share it.

As for now. Please, let's move on, get the thread back on track here.

:cool:

Just trying this ROM today and everything is great so far, been trying to catch up in the thread. I noticed people are having trouble sending MMS, it seems to be working ok for me. I installed Verizon message+ and it is working fine. Thanks for all the work much appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I have been working on this for a bit and got it done so wanted to share it.

This will allow you to choose your MODs (or remove them) in Aroma after you install the MOD Pack.

You must first boot up the ROM fully, then go back to recovery and flash the MOD Pack.

Once you boot up after flashing the MOD Pack you can flash the MOD Pack Aroma.zip to change things.

HK, JBL and Boomsound are included in the Aroma.zip and flashes the correct ADSP.img if you want HK MOD

if you have any other issues, kindly let me know

MOD Pack: Download

MOD Pack Aroma: Download

LeeDrOidTweeks.apk

Most of the other tweaks not in the Aroma.zip can be turned off/on using the above LeeDrOidTweeks.apk
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
thanks for this, andybones.

I have followed your steps precisely. Everything appears to be working including the tweaking app. However, there is no HK icon showing when I have music playing, via google music.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Thanks for the update my friend, I was hoping I had the hk icon fixed but I guess not. I does seem to be working still but will be trying to figure out why the icon isn't show. :cool:

EDIT: dumb overlook on my part, please flash the attached in recovery and let me know if that fixes it.

everyone else if you already downloaded the MODPackAroma.zip please re-download it.

Worked like a charm! Thanks.

I made some themed Phone and Contacts. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=65187767&postcount=4187

I updated them this evening with the new phone app. 2.3.17
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] LibertyMonger:
I tried flashing the black theme twice and it didn't work.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Did you uninstall any updates to the phone from the Play Store? There was a phone update just the other day, you must uninstall it. The phone apk in the zip is the newest one so no worries about that. So if you have it flashed and the update is still installed uninstall it and the theme will show.

If the zip isn't working for some reason then extract the apk's and replace them in the /system manually
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] LibertyMonger:
That fixed it, thank you. Only other issue I am having is with Hypernova, it is causing my touchscreen to be unresponsive. Anyone else having this issue? The link is gone from beyondstock.

*Edit I will check the Hypernova thread, sorry

Funny I had used to have the same trouble with touchscreen on BS, not hypernova. But I can say both current versions work on my phone now.

I noticed the same issue after installing the modpack today. I only installed the first .zip, I didn't do the aroma installer part. The video I was trying to play was google's first result for html5 video within Chrome:

I'll get a log together shortly.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Strange, not having this issue. Hopefully the log reveals something.

Can others using MOD Pack confirm?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Rexxe:
I had the same problem with the YouTube app and had only flashed the modpack. Once I flashed modpack aroma, everything worked again.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] somerandomguy1:
Worked for me, too. I hadn't flashed the aroma zip because I didn't feel the need to change anything else and didn't know it was necessary.

Thanks for the tip!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
So everything is working well again after flashing Aroma MOD Pack?

I'll add to OP, wasn't aware this was necessary either, curious what is breaking/fixing it. I'll compare the .zips to see if anything stands out.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] somerandomguy1:
Yes, videos play fine now! :D
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:

My cell carrier is MetroPCS and have been using M*.H9 Marshmallow on my HTC One M8 successfully.

Last night I installed this M*.H10 Marshmallow, chose rooted build, full wipe. I did not choose to install BusyBox (did I choose wrong?). After the install completed, phone was not able to find cell carrier. When I went to Cellular Network Settings, no menu setting for Network operators so I couldn't search. Also, SIM status did not show phone number, IMEI, etc. I shutdown phone, pulled out SIM, turned on phone, installed SIM, got message that MetroPCS was recognized and told to reboot. After reboot, same issue, cannot find cell carrier. Restored to M*.H9, and I can successfully connect to cell carrier. So, I don't think I need a new SIM, as the one I have works if I use M*.H9. Anyone have any suggestions on what to try next? My kernel is 3.4.0-perf-gd7aafa47andorid@gpe#1 (this came from the GPE for HTC M8 ROM), baseband version 1.12.20.1211.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] carfreak715:
Any reason as to why my battery is getting some serious drainage? This came out if nowhere and I'm afraid that my actual phone battery might be ****ting the bed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schneid:
First, I'd calibrate your battery. I use BatteryCalibration from the store. Doit everytime you swap kernels, ROM's, etc. This one:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

I also use the Amplify and Greenfly Xposed modules and think they really work. Check out your "running" apps and freeze or better yet, uninstall the juice suckers. I use BootManager, AutostartManager, and AppOps to try to reign in the bloodsuckers too.

I think most battery issues come from apps you don't really use and don't know are running.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cBreezy22:
After flashing the most recent update, I can not received picture messages. They'll sit there and try to download and end up erroring out. I've tried reflashing but to still the same thing. Any ideas?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cntryby429:
It's more if a workaround rather than a solution but I presume you're on Wi-Fi. Turn it off and download via cell data.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cBreezy22:
That's what I thought it was at first but regardless if I am on data or WiFi, still won't download. Thinking about downgrading...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Excavage:
It was the latest rom version :D
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
The ROM doesn't have an assert check in the updater script anymore so not sure why you got an error.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
It's not the MOD Pack, running without any rotate issues.

Although the MOD Pack for the most part *should* be fine with GB + Xposed, it's mainly for those who don't use them, and want the MODs cooked into the applications.

I have nothing against GB nor Xposed. Also MOD Pack provides all that I need, so I don't have a need for GB or Xposed.

:)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Updated the H10 aroma installer with new xposed 75. Also fixed little visual things in the installer that still referenced H9, So everything should be good to go now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Downloading and updating. Thanks for keeping the port alive. Greatly appreciated.

Edit: Did you touch anything in particular with the ROM? I just flashed the latest build and I got a bump up in terms of signal. I was trending 0-1 of 3 for the signal indicator, and I'm average 1-2 mainly on 2 at the moment post-flash. Not complaining, just wondering.

Edit2: Updated some apps, and it got bogged down again back to 0-1 of 3. Trying to find out which app is the culprit....
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
No didn't touch anything like that, apns and what I did do wouldn't increase your signal strength. But I did notice that my WiFi isn't dropping out during sleep, so they could correlate. There were a lot of lib and module patches so something got tweaked. Or could be something in the kernel if you using the stock one. Idk but I'm glad your experience is going well.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Thus far I am seeing the same results, I can't say if the actual -dBm signal itself is better (not that it was ever bad) but the singal icon itself in status bar is now showing 1-2 when I'd be seeing it at 0

Either way - amazing job on the ROM. And great work and much appreciated keeping it up-to-date so quickly!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Great work deserves appreciation. With CleanROM being, this ROM (stemming from H9 by undarrated) holds second in terms of how long I've actually ran it as a driver. Every other ROM I've tried eventually leads me back to CleanROM after a few days or at most a week. Props for keeping the project going. And maybe a little too early to say, but would you be continuing with the Marshmallow port? Given the article here on XDA about Verity and all, I'm getting the vibe of it being a bit of a pain in the rump to get Marshmallow running with an unlocked bootloader and S-OFF, etc. And again, thanks for the time placed in keeping this going.

Are you getting a consistent 1-2? I updated a few apps via the Play Store and only have GravityBox and Amplify modules re-instated. Somewhere between the fresh flash (swipe to wiped before going for 2nd wipe option in AROMA) and when I finished updating my apps, it dropped from a consistent 1-2 (leaning more on 2) down to the now 0-1. Reception at my place is spotty at one end but decent on the other end, and the spotty end is where my room is :(

This is on the mod (root, busybox, etc one) with the BeyondStock kernel if that makes any difference.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I get decent signal at my house and I'd see 0 a few times on .9 and haven't seen it hit 0 yet on .10

Stock ROM also beyondstock kernel with dev options + MOD Pack I posted.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Currently sitting at about -115 the lowest, which nets the 0 bars visual (though technically 1 bar or 1.5 bars on the Sense indicator). Doesn't help that the nearest Verizon cell tower is about 5 miles away haha. I think I'll see how it goes for now and maybe over the weekend I'll go to just stock root with BeyondStock using your Modpack with pure basic necessity apps to see if it's an app/Xposed thing that's causing it to dip. Though comparatively, even on .9, I was netting slightly better reception than when I was on SkyDragon/SDRedbulled and somewhat on CleanROM as well.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] russjr08:
So when do we get Marshmallow?

Just kidding of course :P

Just wanted to say keep up the great work! \o/

Hopefully HTC will release GPE marshmallow by the end of the month but obviously nothings set in stone

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
M just brings a new set of headaches... Root will require a kernel modification. Hopefully with unlock bootloaders we can still flash custom roms easily. There are new securities that require the system to be verified on boot, so that will also require a custom kernel, I guess not such a huge issue but with the SaftyNet API they might start restricting use of google services on rooted devices, maybe that's a stretch but a possibility. Anyway we'll see what happens.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Droid0351:
Is there any way in the modpack to add Google camera to save to sdcard.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
I port the MOD Pack from Lyapota, into this ROMs applications. You can try requesting this MOD in his thread.

I will try taking a look and see if I can help you out but can't promise anything.

Lyapota is the real deal behind these MODs, so you may get better luck asking in his thread as well.

Just curious but besides the modifications for the boot.img, what else is changed from the stock version?

I'm referring to "Verizon network stability".

I've been wanting a stock GPE ROM but due to no kernel support/boot.img I had to drop that idea and I use a GSM network so yeah.

Test build

I made a new build if anyone is interested in testing it out.

Mostly included some extras in aroma when doing a rooted install.

Traditional Root and Systemless root now use SuperSU 2.67. The SU script should know when the boot.img was modified and is compatible for traditional root or if unmodified it will do the systemless method. Seemed to work fine when I tested it.

A script for fixing screen cast.... Least I was able to stream to my ROKU so needs some testing. Permissive script, wp_mod, DND fix...

Some build.prop changes, Hopefully the changes will help with data and whatnot. Went through sense rom to see what needed to be changed vs using what DH had done in his GPe. If Mms works better, great! but 6.0 still has an Mms bug and will require restarting the phone every few days or Mms will fail to upload and download. Either way the other work around was turning WiFi off when sending and receiving Mms on Verizon. Not sure what else to do if data or mms isn't any better for some users.

I remember someone posting an issue with the notification shade being expanded when the phone is unlocked or when they pull there head away from the phone after a call or during.... Well your not crazy I've been experiencing it too.

After some more digging the issue seems to stem from double tap status bar screen off in gravity box.

I running stock non-rooted w/ no mods.

Using the Verizon messenger+ app and have had zero MMS problems. I have only ran into MMS with hangouts and Google messenger.

I dl'd fb messenger today and keyboard became wonky while on charger. I experienced that with sense Roms too so I believe it's fbs problem.

Wifi seems stable for me but I have experienced the wifi drop before. It seemed to have quit on its own. Weird but I'm cool with that :) when it was wonky before I turned on wifi optimizer in straight talk app and it stopped dropping out. But I returned to a Verizon sim and uninstalled the s/t app. Still no issues with wifi. Knock on digital wood.

I absolutely love your stock gpe so thanks a million times over. If it weren't for this ROM I'd be using a Nexus by now. I bought this phone of Craigslist mid last year to ditch Samsung and found I wasn't found of sense either. Using the Google launcher mad me realize I was just tired of bogged down equipment by software. Where I live I have the choice of only Verizon or us cellular. So not to many options for a good phone close to stock. I don't do contracts so us cellular is much of an option since I travel for 80% of my work tiling new Kwik Trip gas stations. Any hoot, thanks for your hard work and dedication.

Hi people,

I managed to install this rom last night, everything works like a charm, maybe even better. To be honest fastest, smoothest rom i've ever seen so far. I'm on WLV m8, but I have few questions tho.. Battery life seems to be a bit short then on stock rom (by a bit i mean alot in 15 mins i lost 20% of battery during the update-ing apps), is that normal or you guys got some suggestions that I can prolong my battery life? Never noticed that before on stock rom tho. And second question, phone name is HTC6525LVW (it used to be HTC One_M8)? I can't change it? Can't find anywhere phone spec (hardware)?

Thanks in advance ^^
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
The phone name is in the build prop about line 35. Just change it if it bothers you, but that was the name from the build prop in the last Verizon ruu so i changed it to that.

Battery can drain fairly quickly for the first day but had always greatly improved by the 2nd day for me at least.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Try the Hypernova kernel 2.0. You can find it on these boards. I'm getting full day use. Great battery life! A little better I've found than stock.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] schneid:
Agree
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattyd3:
In case anyone isn't worried about battery life, install Hypernova kernel and set the CPU on performance. Amazing speed and no stuttering. You're battery life will sure take a hit. But man, try it out for a bit.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jsauder2:
you do realize that just locks your CPU at full speed all the time right? that should make your phone fly with any kernel, including stock. it also might allow you to fry eggs on the back of your phone if you use it for an extended period.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattyd3:
I do realize this, also this phone gets pretty warm regardless of what governor your running with decent SOT. So what's the harm in giving people who don't tweak kernels very often a heads up on what their phones performance can be like if they don't mind a shorter battery life, especially if they have access to a power cord most of the day in a cubicle?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jsauder2:
no prob, just wanted to make sure. I've seen guys on here before mention that and then ask why their phone was getting so hot.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] furious78:
I'm willing to bet some people with this problem are not and never were running xposed. I run xposed and don't have this problem. I think it was just coincidence that uninstalling it fixed this for you.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cBreezy22:
When I clean flashed earlier this week I didn't install xposed immediately to see if it was the ROM having the issue and didn't have a problem getting MMS. That's why I tried uninstalling xposed.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ahpatel:
This is the first build that accurately displays the battery percentage! Previously, the phone would ALWAYS auto shutdown when the battery percentage hit 24%.

You didn't comment on that specifically but I did a dirty flash and didn't change any settings so I think it's safe to assume it was something you did. Thanks!

You aren't having touchscreen issue's on web pages and certain apps? For me it freezes up and touch is unresponsive. Also scrolling stutters on webpages on the latest hypernova.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Good for me. It seems to be random issues for different people even with the same phone. I tried beyond stock kernel and found that I had no touch screen capability. It also made my phone run a little hotter than hypernova. I don't seem to have any stutter using hypernova or none that are detectable enough for me to complain about. I also noticed that whenever I used amplify in conjunction with exposed and greenify my phone would go nuts and randomly shut off for no reason. I'm sticking now to just exposed and greenify and all is well. It's the best phone I've ever had.
