No you can't change your 4.16.401 firmware to the dev edition firmware because it's indeed a s - on device. That's no problem. Run the rom and have fun with it.

When the official 401 ota drops you can revert to a stock backup (4.16.401) + stock recovery and install the official ota

I was experiencing this with CM Lollipop :)
[One (M8) Android Development] bitshifter:
I seem to have this issue as well. Mobile data drops. GPS seems weaker than it should be, google maps informs me that GPS signal gets lost frequently. Never had this issue before. In addition, the signal is weaker and it doesn't like to stay connected with LTE. Phone service through t-mobile. I discovered that using the mobile data toggle resets the data. The device is an S-On developer edition phone. Baseband version is 1.24.21331147A1.09G_20.68.4196.01_F If there is a different radio that I could/should try I'd be grateful.
[One (M8) Android Development] arses:
What does mean systemless??

Thanks for explaination.
[One (M8) Android Development] Mr Hofs:
Obtaining root access without touching the system partition. This basically enables the possibility of future official ota updates as the standard root method changes the system binaries and therefore block future ota updates.
[One (M8) Android Development] circassian92:
I tried the SkyDragon ROM too, but I'm having the same issue, slightly better mobile signal but still things are not going well regarding this issue. I will try this ROM and if things are still like this, I'll go back to Lollipop.

I haven't touched the stock rom a bit, this rom is 100% stock, so all bugs should be present on stock base, or it's something on your side.

People with radio issues, try flash the radio from your previous firmware.
[One (M8) Android Development] bitshifter:
I, unfortunately, neglected to back up my old radio firmware before I applied the new. If anyone has a developer edition phone and a good radio image, I would appreciate it if they could point me at a link or send me a copy. My google-fu is letting me down.
[One (M8) Android Development] mobileman88:
Hi,

Seems that after I have granted access to TiBu, it is still read-only. And if I select the "External Storage" in "Document Provider", the "Use current folder" option is still greyed out. Not sure what I am doing wrong here. Hope you can lend a clue to this.
[One (M8) Android Development] circassian92:
Did you try Settings -> Apps -> Titanium Backup -> Permissions, and activate the Storage permission (it'll be green when activated, gray when deactivated) ?
[One (M8) Android Development] mobileman88:
It simply shows as gray. However, after like 6 reboots, mysteriously I could select it. Go figure
[One (M8) Android Development] redpoint73:
You can't back up radios with TWRP, if that is what you are thinking. Finding and flashing the desired firmware is the proper way to revert the radio.

Also, the radio you stated (1.24.21331147A1.09G_20.68.4196.01_F) is the Dev Edition Lollipop radio. You might try the actual MM firmware before making judgments about signal strength and GPS.

If you did flash the MM firmware, you may have neglected to flash it

twice

(which is often necessary to get all the firmware modules to flash properly).
[One (M8) Android Development] bitshifter:
I did flash it twice, although I never got anything that said it succeeded.

I have problems with root. It seems both the systemless and the traditional methods don't seem to properly install the superuser binary files. I know this because after using the systemless method, root checker told me there was root access but the binary files are not properly installed and also some of my apps which use root don't work properly... For example, when I grant root access to file manager, there's nothing visible on my sdcard but when I revoke access, everything is visible(this happens with both methods). Also sixaxis controller can't install the Bluetooth driver especially after using the traditional method (it worked when I used the systemless method). Someone please help, its driving me crazy......

How-To

Download the firmware and rename it to firmware.zip

Put your device to bootloader/fastboot mode

Run below commands:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

You'll see -

if failed : FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)

repeat fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

fastboot reboot-bootloader (if you want to check your current bootloader)

or

fastboot reboot (to reboot directly to system)

You have the Verizon variant. Its partitioned differently from most other M8 versions. The Dev Ed firmware isn't compatible, it will fail or brick your phone.

I highly recommend you only use Verizon (605) firmware on your phone. As MM hasn't been released for VZN yet, you have no updated MM firmware at this time. But the current Lollipop firmware should be fine to run MM ROMs. More importantly, you probably need a different kernel, for this ROM to work.

[One (M8) Android Development] rewen:
Does anyone else find the phone to get laggy after using the camera?

I *think* the same thing happened with the GPE 6.0 ROM for me. I'm having a hard time figuring out the cause of my lag but recently noticed that it may be triggered by using the camera app. The camera app itself is generally slow to open and if I go back to it hours later it can take nearly a minute to load. Everything on the phone starts to slow down until I reboot. Unlocking gets laggy, switching apps, typing, etc. CPU usage hovers around 30% and doesn't calm down. I can't find the process that is associated with the CPU usage while it happens. Also, I'm not sure if clearing all recent apps helps or not (doesn't seem to), but a reboot definitely does. I've tried removing and disabling many apps without any results.

Possibly related but I notice photos sometimes show up twice in Google Photos after using the stock camera & gallery. I'll see the "0" directory in addition to the standard path. To solve, I've cleared the data for the camera, gallery, photos, and media storage apps. I've also cleared app caches from the Apps area and the recovery.

Anyone else with issues like this?
[One (M8) Android Development] rbouza1:
take anything out of the "0" directory and delete it. it's your old rom files. then I would wipe cache and dalvick in recovery. did you dirty flash this or clean wipe
[One (M8) Android Development] shlomip6:
Can i use this to upgrade from 1.58.502 ?
[One (M8) Android Development] rewen:
The "0" directory is actually a symlink. If I delete files there, I'm deleting my files in both places. Resetting Media Storage usually resolves this but it's come back a few times now. It's related to Android's multiple-users feature.
[One (M8) Android Development] rbouza1:
well even before the multi user feature that had showed up. so do what you want.

No radio change (apparently) after RUU flashing

Hi everyone, I hope someone can help me.

I have a Hong Kong HTC One M8y S-Off (modified CID and MID) in which I have flashed the Firmware of this thread (twice as it should be) and then loaded stock ROM (.exe downloaded at HTC official site). Now it is not rooted.

The problem is that I can't connect to any LTE network (BC 4 - AWS).

I have entered *#*#4636#*#* and tried USA Band and Automatic Band, Only LTE, Evdo and many other things but I still cannot connect to my carrier LTE network (Claro Argentina).

I suppose that the baseband (for some reason) has no changed.

Does anyone have an idea of what can I do?

If you're using systemless root, then the s2s_mod will not be activated (because the script will not be executed).

Hi I was on CM12, flashed the firmware then flashed the rom using TWRP:

After installing the ROM I get the success page from the Aroma Installer, but on TWRP it said "Unable to mount /data."

And now whenever I boot I get a screen saying that I need to decrypt my phone, and i need to input a password. Whatever Password I enter it says that decryption was unsuccesfull and my data is corrupt and I can only click on "Reset phone" button. Then it goes back to recovery and it says "Unable to mount /data" and then reboots and the process starts again.

[One (M8) Android Development] topjohnwu:
Yes, setting to permissive fixes the issue. This rom is 100% stock, it should be some bug in HTC.

This rom is 100% stock, unmodified, so issues might be caused by other factors such as firmware/radio. You can try the firmware listed in the OP.

Also, Chainfire has massively improved support for M, so the modified boot image is now not necessary anymore.
[One (M8) Android Development] Gamesoul Master:
ROM seems to work well. But root...? Seems iffy. I chose the right option in Aroma, I installed the zip just in case it was needed. I see it saying that it's granting superuser privileges to apps.

Stuck rebooting after flashing ROM, 3 tries so far

I am stuck on the reboot/restart HTC screen after flashing the ROM (just the ROM).

I have a AT&T M8, bootloader unlocked, S-ON. No changes to CID (CWS__001), MID (0P6B12000), or product (m8_ul_ca). I have TWRP 3.0.2-0-m8 as my recovery. Lollipop firmware (version-main): 4.28.502.8; Bootloader (version-bootloader): 3.19.0.0000. This had the latest AT&T HTC OTA update that was the "Preparatory update for Android 6.0 Marshmallow." I don't really care to update firmware since I'm on Lollipop and S-ON for now.

1st try: I copied the AROMA stock ROM (from the first post) onto my external SD card, and installed via TWRP. I chose full wipe in the AROMA installer. The installer went to somewhere in the 50+% range before finishing and saying it completed successfully. Then I wiped the DALVIK cache and rebooted. 15+ minutes later, it is still stuck on the HTC splash screen logo.

2nd try: I did the exact same thing except did not wipe the DALVIK cache after the ROM Flash. 15+ minutes after reboot, it is stuck on the HTC screen.

3rd try: I did the same, except did the "Dirty Flash" in the AROMA installer (no full wipe), and no DALVIK cache wipe. The installer got to 60+% before jumping to complete this time, but same result. It is stuck on the restart.

Obviously, I can get into TWRP recovery no problem, but the ROM doesn't seem to want to stick.

Any ideas or tips? Thanks!
[One (M8) Android Development] redpoint73:
Try downloading the ROM again, and flashing again. Maybe just a bad download. Everything else looks in order, and I see no reason for you to be stuck with no boot.

BTW, great first post! Seriously, it has all the relevant info (CID, MID, TWRP version, main version, detailed description of each step you did, and the specific results for each) needed to advise you, which many members fail to do; which just leads to me asking them lots of questions in order to try to help.
[One (M8) Android Development] jazoom333:
No go so far

Thanks for the reply!

I re-downloaded the ROM (used the DevDB Link from the OP), flashed again, and the same result. Sorry, don't mean to be useless. Any suggestions? I thought maybe doing the latest AT&T RUU from HTC's website, but I read in a few places you have to re-lock the bootloader, and I don't even know if it's the right thing to do.

Thank you! I spent a lot of time lurking, and probably get almost as frustrated as you when I have to read 3 pages of threads to understand one conversation! BTW, I've read some of your other posts, and you've already helped me a great deal. Thank you. Also, liquidaluminum's "Step-by-step guide for Unlocking and Rooting the HTC One (M8) AT&T Variant" was one of the best I've read.
[One (M8) Android Development] jazoom333:
Finally got it...I think root was necessary, not optional

I finally got it to boot, and it's working. I re-downloaded the ROM a few more times even after my previous post, to no avail. Could it be possible that 10 downloads were corrupted? Possible, but unlikely.

Finally, I stumbled across this post in this thread, where the poster had the same bootloop issue until he used the modified boot file (in the OP) with the traditional root method:

Up until this point, I wasn't attempting to root...didn't really need it. So when I was flashing all those times, in the AROMA installer, I was not selecting any of the checkboxes for mods (no root, no S-ON workaround, no Sweep to Sleep mod). So I figured what the heck. Just to be 100% sure, I also did a MD5 checkfile this time.

TL;DR: I downloaded the root mod zip from the OP, put that and the latest SuperSU zip on my external SD, selected root in the AROMA installer, and voila!

I hope this can help others in my situation who encounter the same issue. I think there may be a bug in the installer, at least for my config, unless I did something else wrong. My guess is either the MD5 check or the Root mod are necessary for the install to work, maybe some codepath problem. Thanks for your help [MENTION=660462]redpoint73[/MENTION] and others!

[One (M8) Android Development] redpoint73:
Not sure I helped much, as it looks like you figured it out yourself. But always happy to try to help, at least!

That is indeed interesting, as its a stock ROM, I would not think that picking "no root" would result in a bootloop. But I can't see any other reason for the bootloop (like you said, 10 bad downloads is extremely unlikely).

I used the traditional root method in AROMA when installing this ROM, and it worked fine for me.
