[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheNewNEXUS:
First of all HTC will make the marshmallow build available for the m8, then Verizon will patch it so that it is acceptable for the Verizon variant.

In the past it took way to long for updates, so don't expect it to come anytime soon. I want it by the end of this month, but I think we will get it in December.

I think that cm13 will finish first...

:(
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] SoundMessage:
Is there a solution for turning off the Marshmallow OTA nag for now?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] heyfrench:
Long press the notification, tap the i icon, enable Block notification. (You can toggle it on then off to remove it temporarily, but for me it would show up again anywhere from 12 hours to 30 minutes later.)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jsauder2:
by doing that aren't you blocking all notifications from android system (or whatever that's part of), and not just the ota one?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
I believe so. I recall trying to block Android System notifications, ended up messing up more than just system notifications.

Alternative would be to use Titanium Backup and freezing the OTA update. I'm not getting the Marshmallow OTA on my M8 at the moment, but when I was using CleanROM before .H9, freezing the OTA worked since the ROM was 5.0.1 based. The free version of Titanium should work just fine for freezing IIRC.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
What specific files for this ROM should be frozen or altered? I've looked through threads but the resolution is not apparent to me - I don't see the files on my phone being reference. Some of the info on this is too old. So asking again in the proper thread for this ROM. Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jsauder2:
I believe you can rename otacerts.zip which is in system/etc/security. just make a backup of the original file and delete or rename it.

you'll also need to delete the update.zip from the cache partition and then reboot.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Go and get some MM!!!!! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3249193
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheNewNEXUS:
Does it display the network as verizon wireless?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] russjr08:
Mine does :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
No mine does not in the quick settings drop down. Not sure why not or how to fix but it's purely aesthetics. LTE works fine!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Isn't this GSM only?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gonzalezb:
Looks like just a kernel 8.5mbs isn't enough to be a rom?

UPDATE: alright makes sense now you flash gsm GPE rom and then flash the kernel and it should then boot into marshmallow
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gonzalezb:
No okay you download the GSM GPE 6.0 ROM from xda and then download the linked above kernel and install the ROM and before restarting you have to flash the kernel that's the only thing keeping the GSM ROM from booting in are device is the kernel.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TenderloinShadow:
So, this link here, it WILL work on Verizon? Just to clarify, the process is:

1) Flash this ROM.

2) Flash the kernel from another post.

3) Reboot

4) MARSHMALLOW!!!

Is there a new bootloader/recovery that will need to be flashed first? Also, there seem to be some link issues in the other post. I may just wait for the OP here to be updated, but this sounds very promising.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Yes MM does work.

I flashed it and works great.

Xposed works since it is deodexed and Xposed has been updated to M - link - http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3543418&d=1447616689, but no idea about any modules i just flashed to see if it would boot up and it did.

I'm messing around with the framework-res.apk for personal but hopefully OP may already be ahead of me and is in the works for an updated ROM, I saw that DH is working on an update.

you want to flash this rom - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4FPOr6ikxw9YkY3V3RCQk1ad2M/view

choose the Traditional root method in aroma

then flash this kernel right after the rom: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3543180&d=1447604706

reboot, enjoy stock MM :)

you will need to change to global to get LTE

we do not have firmware so no need to mess with anything bootloader/recovery wise
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gonzalezb:
Yes the GSM GPE 6.0 ROM does work fine on are the device it just wont boot because of the kernel so the kernel your going to flash is a modified lollipop kernel to work under Marshmallow it works without any issues i am already running the latest 5.1 GPE rom from this post and i downloaded the rom and the kernel wiped cache and dalvik cache and flashed it like a update and then before i rebooted i flashed the kernel it booted up in less than 5 minutes and had to wait for it to optimize the apps and boom done! then when the OP updates this thread just flash it like a update as well as the only changes would be the make it work for Verizon better so it wont break your system but always back up something could always go wrong when flashing.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Tried the pre-rooted ROM for half a day. Doze is nice, but lack of Viper4Android is a deal breaker for me. Tried the SELinux permissive mod, still doesn't work. Also got random lags all over the place, and can't get double swipe up Hibernate + Lock Screen gesture working on Nova Launcher on MM either. I got GravityBox working on the ROM, but that's about it. Back to H10 5.1 it is, assuming it actually boots during this initial setup (facepalm)

Might give the stock ROM + kernel with self-root if it turns out that I have to RUU to get back to 5.1.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
V4A should work fine. I've read of users using it on MM.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
And here I thought it was going to be a productive night where I'm not spending hours on my phone. Nope! BTW Andy, are you on the GSM ROM + Kernel? Or the AROMA one. [MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION]
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gonzalezb:
The op won't be updated for sometime as the kernel is lollipop kernel not Marshmallow as HTC has not released source code for the 6.0 kernel yet so there's no way to even build it this is just a temp work around until 6.0 kernel source goes live once that happens this op will be updated probably and you should flash that like an update on top of this to get the actual 6.0 kernel.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
What do you mean it can't be built..?

The GSM ROM can easily be extracted from the system.img or by doing an adb pull which I have already done and am working on porting over MODs from LP.

I'm also well aware that the kernel is not 6.0..

Either way not trying to argue.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
Both ROMs are the same the aroma one just has root built into it using aroma.

I'm on 5.1 for the time being while working on some mods for MM
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
None of the installation methods work for V4A. SELinux set to permissive and it's still asking for reinstallation of the driver. Back to H10 it is! :D
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Hey Andy, So I've been messing with trying to get a file based MM build going but I'm not having much luck so we've been stuck installing the system.img for the time being. Obviously this isn't ideal... Captain Throwback got a build working for sprint users so if you haven't checked that out you should. Now his build will not boot for me... no matter what, replacing the modded files, the boot.img it will always stall at the splash screen. The reason for this is because he is leaving the symlinked files in there, its working for them but for reasons I don't understand it doesn't work for me. So firmware.. GSM vs CDMA Idk but leaving the symlinks in the ROM won't boot for me but maybe it will work for you. If I use my build it boots and everything works except WiFi won't connect, ends up with an IP configure error. There are some permissions that aren't correct or some still missing, this is becoming a real pain in the a$$. If you have time take a look at my build https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_2pYqG5OJVYQ3d4LXMxQnh0VTA/view?usp=sharing and Captains the only difference in my build is I'm not using the symlink files from the system.img I'm creating them with the install script, obviously because that method doesn't boot for me. A few files he modded for Sprint the boot.img and I have some missing permissions in my install script. Hope we can get this figured out. Thanks for your time and all you've been doing here.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tinylightshow:
Just to clarify... I can dirty flash this over .H10, flash the kernel, then boot to MM?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
You don't need to flash the kernel if you're using the AROMA installer since its prebaked, but for the GSM ROM, yes.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] blackbuffalo:
Clean flash, still WIFI not work. I can access 2 my wifi routers. Stuck at Obtaining IP adress :(

I set manual IP address it work, hope you can fix this
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Ok, interesting that setting the IP manually works... Thanks for testing it. I hope I can fix it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tinylightshow:
Had to flash the included kernel or else my phone wouldn't boot. Just kept taking me to the bootloader. Flashed the kernel and booted up just fine! Seems like everything is working, LTE, Wifi... haven't tried Xposed yet. One thing I did notice, though, is my Smart Remote widget isn't sizing correctly. Oh well, I might just switch to a different app if it keeps up.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] blackbuffalo:
Wifi work fine with you? I'm flash zip from [MENTION=2972841]enewman17[/MENTION] on my M8 AT&T and wifi cant access wifi when use dhcp, but work when I set static IP
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tinylightshow:
Yup, working great. No issues here, but I'm on Verizon M8.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] blackbuffalo:
Dont know why because I think it is International rom
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
With that build I linked in my drive folder, no my WiFi won't connect... It works but won't connect. That's the only issue I'm facing with getting a file based install going. I haven't tried a static IP yet cause I'm at work but will test when I get home.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
So the build I linked in my drive folder is working for you?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] blackbuffalo:
Yes, WIFI I can confirm WORK but can't auto connect

You set static IP it work fine. Only wifi, 3G work fine as it. We talking about link from google drive
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tinylightshow:
This build: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4FPOr6ikxw9YkY3V3RCQk1ad2M/view

Its working great so far!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] blackbuffalo:

Has anyone tried a dirty flash of the MM ROM?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tinylightshow:
I've dirty flashed MM from enewman's H10 build, flashed the kernel AndyBones posted and I'm up and running with no issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] SoundMessage:
I followed these instructions and links and dirty flashed. No issues so far, except I see "T-CDMA 64" instead of "Verizon Wireless" as my carrier. That doesn't bother me as much as having to look at "Airplane Mode" in the quick settings vs "Aeroplane Mode", but I suppose I can live with that. :p

I also don't have my HTC Camera and HTC Gallery apps anymore, and many of the ringtones in the OP's ROM are gone or renamed.

I'm not sure what benefits I'm experiencing using MM, though. I've not really noticed m(any) differences, yet.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jerryatherton:
When I select the "Traditional root Method" al I get is a boot loop. When I select the alternative, "systemless?"I get to finish the install. I also loose root. Do I need a different TWRP and superSU to install? My "0" drives are 8 deep.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] heyfrench:
I also dirty flashed MM from enewman's H10 build, using the MM GPE on AFH in the OP, flashed the kernel+root in sun_dream's thread... only issues were losing recovery and not having root. Fixed easily enough by flashing TWRP and the supersu 2.52 beta. No wifi issues, no need to mess with the APNs, no 0 folders.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
VZW Marshmallow build

Wanna test this build. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982086998791
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jerryatherton:
Yes, do I follow Andy's procedure? I may be in a bootloop after I flashed supersu 2.5.2 in recovery
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Its specifically for Verizon so you just flash it. Its the normal root method build
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jas88:
It worked for me but I had to flash the Verizon kernel that Andy shared. It wouldn't boot for me without it. Very smooth though!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
Ok uploading a new build....

How about everything else... Any weird things like T-CDMA64 or whatever that is in the status bar?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jas88:
I still have T-CDMA showing but everything else seems to be okay.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] aaronpw0621:
So from what I'm reading or maybe confused. You will lose root if you flash this??
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jerryatherton:
Working good . using Google restore. My signal icon has an "R" over it. Calling works . Tried layers but it didn't stick. Didn't lose root. Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jas88:
No apn for me. Also have the "R"
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jerryatherton:
I have never seen the R. For network all it says is Preferred Network.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Downloading now. Will flash it tomorrow morning and run it for the day. Now if only Verizon/Sprint can release MM for that beautiful BeyondStock....
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Flashed the latest test build just offered and also that 'S.Rom-xxx-dtb-root.zip' kernel. I think that's what the poster a few items before said they did.

Kept getting phone.android.com force closing. Couldn't really use device at all. Stated no SIM card the whole time.

I am obviously missing something here.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
You shouldn't need to flash the kernel with enewman17's test build though, since he's baked a kernel with the test build? That might be why you're getting no SIM.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Nope. Tried to flash solo. Same result.

Man, do I agree with you. Beyondstock with 5.1 was insane battery and performance for me. But right now I just need my 4g LTE back!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
There is a new 6.0 build in AFH.

Fixed the /system write protect mod for s-on users.

added busybox.

couple other changes for Verizon.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] EvoEryk:
I dirty flashed the 6.0 Rom and Kernel yesterday from Lollipop. Everything seems to be working well except it says Preferred System for the carrier, but its not a big deal. This is great until Sense comes out.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] tinylightshow:
After a day of use, I'm noticing some substantial lag. I had trouble turning my alarm off this morning because the device just would not respond. Gonna try flashing the V2 test version from the OP and see if anything changes. I'm still running on the one andybones posted (which I believe is the GSM rom) with the additional kernel flash.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] J_awn:
Flashed, stuck on roaming/preferred network. Downloading v2 now and flashing. Will report back ASAP.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
will there be a fix for 4g LTE? Or is mny only way to restore flashing the RUU of 5.1, then flash this ROM? thanks for ALL your awesome work. It's really appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
I don't know I don't have a CDMA device so I can't test anything first hand. I made a few changes, hopefully it fixes any LTE, apn... the T-CDMA or any other issues. But Hopefully [MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION] will have some time to flash and work on it too. I'm sure he'll have a better chance at fixing the issues before I can perhaps.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Flashed and had same issue preventing phone use: "com.android.phone" has stopped.

Tried just a flash and then flash with kernal....same result. No SIM card detected fyi.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] topjohnwu:
Verizon folks, here comes the proper fix!!

[ROOT][ROM] Marshmallow GPE (System/Systemless) (wp_mod) (All variants)

Added Verizon specific fixes into the rom, also updated using the new file based flashing method, so all partition sizes should work fine :)

Verizon fixes are done by [MENTION=5280118]whaevr[/MENTION], thank that buddy!!!

Enjoy :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Flashed great. Still no 4g for me. Should I do a full wipe than install? Or is my only hope to RUU the 5.1 and then flash ROM?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] topjohnwu:
It is very likely your radio partition is corrupt. Try RUU your m8 back to stock then flash the rom.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] harmonized1314:
Make sure you do a factory reset from the bootloader after you do the RUU
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] vazersecurity:
Do we have GPS working in this ROM? I know that in CM.13-Unofficial builds it isn't functional as of yet.

BTW, that LTE fix mentioned above is how I got my LTE working again across all ROMs after messing with radio bands.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jascolli:
GPS has been fixed on the 11/18 unofficial CM13 build, I'm on it now.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] vazersecurity:
Thank goodness. I couldn't use certain apps because of that. But what about on this particular ROM?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] mattyd3:
Nobody in this thread has reported that it isn't working... It's a completely different rom (gpe v aosp)...

Last night's vzw build is working great with no apparent issues. Carrier now listed as Verizon wireless.

Went back to enewman17's vzw build. So far so good. 4g Works. Verizon network.

Only thing I noticed was a FC of the phone (went back to MM load screen) when my morning alarm went off. Will let you know if I experience again. Thanks, enewman17. Great build so far.

Flashed mm build and had issues with signal going blank occasionally. Any ideas?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Been getting complete phone restarts for no reason. Also, just had an instance where the phone just shut off. no reason. I wasnt even aware!

This is coming from RUU to stock, then 5.1 ROM and then a flash of this. Too bad. Love the MM. Enewman17 any thoughts of the FC issues and shut downs? Network was VZW and that was working well. Thanks!!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] djpeterdj:
Excellent work. ROM smooth as silk. Thank you.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] heyfrench:
Smooth as silk and good battery life. 5 1/2 SOT today.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] vazersecurity:
Used this build (v3) for a day now, and just experiencing WiFi dropouts on screen-off. Don't know why, but I'm sure there are others experiencing this. This was mentioned in the OP, and can confirm that I never have it drop with my home router (Netgear Nighthawk R7000; definitely recommended), but at school and work, dropping occurs everytime screen goes dark.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] russjr08:
Which build are you running?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
So I RUU'd to 5.0.1, factory reset, flashed enewman17's .10 5.1 GPE ROM then flashed V3 of the 6.0. Working SO well. Ran all night with no issues.

If it helps, I installed xposed this morning. Engaged only the Greenify and Amplify modules. After a bit and while unattended, phone completely went blank. No response to touch, anything. Had to force off using volume keys m+ power, rebooted normally. I disengaged the module only for Amplify to see if this was the culprit. If nothing, will turn on and then then off greenify.

It seems something potentially with the xposed modules are causing conflict? Anyone else get this.

Otherwise THANKS for the build. Really smooth. LTE is fast. Wifi strong so far.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Did you wipe between 5.1 & 6.0?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Didn't. I was amazed the install took and my phone loaded up just as before with 5.1...but 6.0! I went to bed and just wanted to see if the phone ran overnight and my alarm rang. It did. Then I did the xposed experiment this morning. Phone still good now with no amplify turned on. Greenify ok.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Just trying to see how you got to solid performance before xposed and try to isolate the issue.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Right on cue. Phone went dead again. I'm unstalling xposed framework via recovery now.

EDIT: Did a Factory reset. No xposed this time.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
Please report back and let us know how it goes and if you do 5.1-6.0 or not.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
I just did a factory reset of 6.0 from within settings. So far, all good. Everything restoring fine. I'm on 6.0 and not looking to go back to 5.1 if I don't have to. This v3 of enewman17's build is working so far.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Hours on with v3 6.0 from enewman17...smooth as silk. everything working. No issues. :)

And NO xposed installed. Hopefully it can be reintroduced at some point to the ROM. shame to lose its functionality but rather have a fully working phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Sygion:
How can i activate google now on tap ?!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dan Tekle:
When u did the reset, did your phone boot into twrp and throw and error before rebooting?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] enewman17:
I'm running xposed, gravity box, minminguard, and youtube adaway and everything is gravy... I just wouldn't use the amplify or greenify right now. Greenify seems to be one of those apps that and still does a great job of doing what it does but is ultimately not needed anymore. The only other difference is I'm on a GSM device and the boot.img I'm using isn't as hacked together since the device tree binary has to be altered to boot on CDMA devices.

Hold down the home button.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gjrscribe:
Yes. Rebooted. No issues since.

Is greenify basically redundant in MM due to the new battery/app/memory management native to the OS?

Good question. I'm doing a little test, 3 days using greenify (non xposed basic version)

Then 3 days without to see if I have any noticeable differences.

Will post my results.

you'll need to go into the setting when it brings up the google screen. the 3 lines in the top right corner. then enable on tap.

Any issues with LTE on this build Andy? I've been lazy and still running topjohnwu's build and I'm strictly locked onto 3G, can't get a smidge of LTE, not even in areas where I get full reception. Thinking it might have something to do with the carrier fixes he's done with the latest build. Downloading enewman's build now, hopefully crappy work net doesn't cut off midway or at 99% downloaded :eek::eek:

[MENTION=2972841]enewman17[/MENTION] if I'm coming from topjohnwu's build, would a dirty flash work? Or should I wipe first?

Sigh... I know everyone just wants assurance that is't going to be ok. It's always going to be ok.
