The Sense Rom started with the same code that CM started with. Each manufacturer or Rom builder puts their own tweaks to it. The advantage that HTC has is that they build the device. So they have all the drivers and a lot of info that isn't open source and may never be. Folks that build roms from source have to figure out how to make it work with the device they're building for so most times they are starting off at a huge disadvantage but still manage to pull it off.

As far as battery life I'd say there's a lot of processes running on the sense Rom that aren't present on the CM Rom. Personally I've found very little difference in battery life between the two. They both seem about the same to me.
[HTC One A9] varun.gid:
If i TWRP backup my sense and flash CM, i can restore Sense back at anytime? or i'll have to factory reset and start from scratch?
[HTC One A9] scott8281:
You can restore back to sense no problem
[HTC One A9] lucaspeedy:
I try this release but i've continue boot loop... My device is hiaeuhl... lol
[HTC One A9] theNdroid:
Try clearing the Dalvik and the Cache. Be aware that it may bootloop up to 15-20 times before you boot, the first time. Wipe the Dalvik & cache and be patient.
[HTC One A9] incaner:
on hiaeuhl it should be booting without any bootloops...
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Did you do a full wipe before flashing?
[HTC One A9] AnierinB:
Already another nightly! Flashing now through ota!

---------- Post added at 10:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------

I'm using Nicholas Blacked out so I'm assuming you're using the same one? Haha the iPhone status bar signal icons make it that much more ironic!

Edit: the device seems to be booting everytime on the first run now after flashing the latest build. There's probably more that's fixed but definitely the first thing I was looking for.

Edit2: seemed to happen once again so scratch that. Sorry folks. Really wish there was a change log!
[HTC One A9] scotty2000:
Hi, I am a noob in using CM Builds, but I wanna use it on my new A9 O2 Uk Version.

I did some custom rom Flashing on my other HTC phones (e.g. M7) but now I don´t know if I need to use the CM recovery or if I am fine by using the TWRP Recovery?

Can someone please tell me the right way?

Thank in advance
[HTC One A9] joemossjr:
After newest nightly deffinitly feels like its using all cores now a lot more fluid got a couple of FC's at the beginning that seem to have worked themselves out still can't record video tho but there is a new camera apk tho which is a good sign

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------

Twrp will work fine my friend
[HTC One A9] jsanta11:
I did, I got it working. Thanks been a while since I've messed with flashing
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Changelog is up!

[HTC One A9] AnierinB:
Thanks for the changelog link. Really saving me some stress right about now
[HTC One A9] techlogik:
Personally never ran Cyan ever on a device.

Might give it a go for fun.

Thanks
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Does Hangouts FC for anyone after the 1/12 nightly? It FC for me when I tap on a converstation.
[HTC One A9] joemossjr:
If you have the blackout theme on it will on default its fine
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Doh that sucks. Thx.
[HTC One A9] joemossjr:
No problem anyone get the camcorder working?
[HTC One A9] AntikerTa:
Hello. Is there a way with this Rom to use the Fingerprint sensor as a Homebutton?
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Nope. Tried Google Camera also and it gives me a camera error when switching to video.
[HTC One A9] joemossjr:
On the 1/11 build I could actually record just no audio
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
I get an FC when I hit the record button.
[HTC One A9] techlogik:
Sort of similar problem, tried multiple gapps arm64, micro/regular etc...phone boots, but upon screen, it says Setup Wizard has Stopped...and that is all she wrote.
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Are you S-OFF?

Also, you have to flash gapps immediately after flashing CM13. Don't boot into CM13 before flashing gapps.
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
Anyone tried to restore their Sense backup? I just did and it won't accept my PIN to unlock since it's required upon start-up. :(

It doesn't boot...

It becomes warm and remains fixed on the CM logo...

I need to install a dirty flash.. Or i need to do a full wipe??
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
You need to fully wipe in order to flash a custom rom
[HTC One A9] lucaspeedy:
OK perfect seems to work!!

Now we just have to wait for a new ROM or a new fix for the low sound
[HTC One A9] Mudgle:
im getting the same issue. stuck on the logo. Tried several times to flash and do a full wipe but still nothing :/ what fixed it for you?
[HTC One A9] lucaspeedy:
Wipe data factory reset and then flashed the ROM with gapps, when finished wipe dalvik and cache
[HTC One A9] Mudgle:
ill have to test again when my phone finishes updating to 6.0.1 :D did you flash the latest nightly?

also did you have the superuser installed? i read somewhere that might cause a problem with cm13?
[HTC One A9] lucaspeedy:
I don't have supersu because every time i flash it the phone goes in bootloop...
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
You don't need SuperSU for CyanogenMod, and if you flash it then it should result in a bootloop
[HTC One A9] varun.gid:
i'm planning to jump into CM.. how's battery? I get around 3 - 3.5hrs SOT on 14hrs usage usually on sense.. any better with CM?
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Way way better on CyanogenMod

god damit! got it to boot finally! now its not detecting my sim-card -.- just my luck :D

If someone wants to check the log out to see if they can spot something in there

I flashed on TWRP.. first wiped everything.. flashed ROM and Slim Gapps.... then wipe cache etc.. Still on bootloop on HTC Logo Splashscreen. Had 20 already still not working!
[HTC One A9] varun.gid:
Ok i finally got it to boot!! Looks pretty barebones in customization.. willl need to use xposed. No double tap to wake???

And i cant seem to mount internal storage?? 14th Feb build..
[HTC One A9] incaner:
ok the bootloops are now also present on HIAEUHL with the latest 1.56.401.70 update
[HTC One A9] lucaspeedy:
There are some news about updates, or all is silent?
[HTC One A9] ValdOr76:
No news for sound issues with the amp ? it makes cm13 useless on this phone (phone call low alarm clock low music apps everything) too bad for a good rom :/

I think back in stock (rooted) much better than sound low it's boring !

And i dont understand why the dev cant revert that if it's work on stock ... :confused: ( i allready read the dev post who talk about the amp and why he didnt revert it )

At all we have a bug on streaming and wifi who slow the connection for no reason so too much bug for me enouth of cm13 bye >< ( mostly for no hiaeuhl support :/ )

When sound issues and basic service for a phone will be fix maybe i return on cm13 maybe

i forgot too, cm13 make heat the phone more than the stock i dont understand why ...:silly:
[HTC One A9] incaner:
May it be possible that the Bootloops are caused by wrong partition sizes?

Since i updated to 1.56 Firmware It randomly crashed, bootloops and no data connectivity
[HTC One A9] Captain_Throwback:
Did the sizes change?
[HTC One A9] incaner:
Im going to check that out right now...

Using the SuperR's Kitchen with set_metadata i made the latest Nightly running (With bootloops, no data connectivity, random crashes)

If i just flash the latest nightly it will stay bootlooping -> Maybe the fault is not because of the partitions?

Im going to upload the 2 logs from

cat /proc/partitions

and

cat /proc/emmc

The previous uploaded Logs are here and here
[HTC One A9] incaner:
ok here are the new logs
[HTC One A9] Captain_Throwback:
Did you compare the output?

Ive been having this exatct issue since i started trying different roms. CM13 and MoKee both bootloop and when finally they boot no data connections and no sim detection and random crash and reboot
[HTC One A9] incaner:
I dont know if the difference in the zRam partitions influence CM13 and cause this bugs

From what i hear here it is a problem on both Variants.

HIAEUL and HIAEUHL
[HTC One A9] Mudgle:
Is there anyway for me to help? like give you info from my phone to get confirmation if the problem is in zRam? I just got my phone S-OFF and i might try to flash MoKee and CM13 to check out if that makes a difference
[HTC One A9] AnierinB:
Got my device back from repair yesterday and had to get cm13 back on my device. I thought I was going to face the boot bug and random reboots but it seems as if either installing the ROM via twrp 3.00-1 or having the latest firmware from att the device boots everytime now.
[HTC One A9] Mudgle:
Whats the latest firmware from att? Im at 1.56.401.70 now and ill try to flash cm13 tonight when i get back home.. i just think ill hit the no data and random crash problem again..
[HTC One A9] AnierinB:
1.27.502.5 :good: if I were you I'd ruu it via windows or the download mode-sdcard method.

I hope this works for you as I was quite shocked when I did all this.

Note: before I sent my device In it was S-off and had the latest dev edition firmware on it.

It was returned with the first software it was released with on ATT's network as well as being S-on.

I decided to take the firmware I mentioned at the top and decrypt it via HTC decryption tool ( [MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] ) as I can't pay for S-off at the moment and took the outputted 2PQ9IMG and flashed it via SDcard in download mode.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Is anyone else experiencing laughably slow 4g LTE connections when on cm13? On the stock at&t ROM I can pull a 5mb/second data speed, but when on cm13 I can barely get 1mb/second
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
Sorry for the question, I have to be s-off to flash this, I got twrp and root, thanks.

[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
You do not need s-off, as long as you have root and a custom recovery.
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
Thanks but when I install got a boot loop, please help hiaeul

Enviado desde mi HTC One A9 mediante Tapatalk
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
To flash a custom ROM, first go to wipe, advanced wipe, and wipe cache, data, and system. Then, got to install, and find the CyanogenMod zip file and correct arm64 6.0 gapps zip, choose the CyanogenMod 13 zip file and the correct 6.0 gapps file, install, wipe dalvik/ART cache, and then you should be good to go
[HTC One A9] Mudgle:
Flashed 1.12.617.6 and changed CID to superCID and mid to 2PQ912000. After that i flashed CM13 and Gapps. Booted first try and no problems with the sim-card! fully working now so i suspect it has something to do with the version i was at
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
Thanks for your answer, but i do exactly that and no luck, only get white screen with HTC logo and red warning saying that it's a development purpose, then boot loop....

[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Well, all I can say now is make sure you have the correct ROM (hiaeul for US, hiaeuhl for Europe)
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
I got hiaeul device, will try with another nightly ....

Yeah try re-downloading the ROM, the download could have messed up or something

Dear All,

some summary from me about CM13 on this device. I've never used the original Firmware, i have directly flashed CM13.

The system is quite fast but at the moment the most unstable Linux system i've ever seen. Especially when it is reloading the chains from the iptables firewall (switch networks, LTE to Wifi etc) it prefers to hang and to reboot on a iregularry base, at least one/two reboots per day.

It is often comming up with no active service (Deutsche Telekom) but a short flight mode enable/disable is always helping. I think the sound issue has been already reported and discussed here but it is not critical for me, not using it for any kind of music (it is just a phone and not a Hifi device). As observed already under a Nexus 5 - using busybox command line utilities has no name resolution by the DHCP assigned DNS server, it is always using spy google - means no internal network name resolution. The fingerprint is working really well and also the integration of a SD card (used Samsung Pro 64GB) as internal storage. I'm looking forward more stable releases, i try to flash 3 times a week.
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
Dont know what I'm doing wrong , always boot loop, my device is decrypted... [emoji19]

I just got a red alert saying that "this build is for development......." and i tried to install cm13 recovery and happened the same. Please guys, need your help.
[HTC One A9] Maribou:
Are you flashing the open gapps with it? It was looping on me until I flashed gapps. IMO, I think the new UI is terrible. I went back to 6.0 stock.
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
Yes un flashing open gapps, first cm13 then gapps (stock or minimal) then wipe cache/dalvik, restart...... I want to test cm13

Enviado desde mi HTC One A9 mediante Tapatalk
[HTC One A9] Maribou:
Earlier in the thread you mentioned something about being s-off. Is your phone s-off? I'm not 100% sure, but I would think you would need to have security disabled to run CM. I say that because your firmware version could be the reason you are having issues. You wouldn't be able to flash a ROM based off of 6.0.1 if your firmware version is lower than 6.0.1, and the only way to change firmware is to have s-off.
[HTC One A9] fernando2610:
I have s -on, my firmware is 6.01 sense, probably that it's the problem, thanks

Enviado desde mi HTC One A9 mediante Tapatalk
[HTC One A9] AnierinB:
S-on. S-off. Doesn't matter. I've noticed the device boots cm13 everytime on 6.0 firmware not 6.0.1
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
That's not true, you can definitely flash a higher version of Android to your phone
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
No reboots till now with 20160311 Nightly, seems to have fixed something what produced here irregular reboots, nice.
[HTC One A9] zorantoma:
Are you on 1.56 firmware?
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Hi,

which firmware do you mean ?
[HTC One A9] zorantoma:
on your phone. Are you on 1.27(6.0.0) base or on 1.56(6.0.1 android).

On 1.27 it boots normal,but on 1.56 it bootloops
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Hi,

i'm on CM13 20160312 Nightly (updated right now from 20160311) . I've never used the original Firmware.
[HTC One A9] djsubtronic:
Maximum volume for audio is really really soft... any way to fix this? Using the latest nightly (0312).
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
noob need help.

Hello.

I just got my HTC One A9 and wanted to put un CM 13 but it wont work.

I have unlocked the bootloader, gain full root access and i use the latest twrp. And i have don a full format of the inter phone.

I have a Europa model (hiaeuhl) and got the last 3 roms in that version.

But no matter what of them i put on my phone it's just go in boot loop for some time (as it should) but after first full boot and end config of user settings it just break down, going into boot loop for some time, starts up and repeat.

Do i have to make it S-OFF or do i do something wrong? I would really like to use the CM 13 on my phone.

Ohh.. and if you need more info then just guide me how to get it to you and i will get it asap.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Hi jjakajonas,

the data partition was encrypted in my version of the phone (EU), in TWRP go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe, format the data partition & try again. I assume, that you have also a warning in the TWRP console that it can not mount the data partition. A full Wipe is not formating the the encrypted data partition.

-------

Update: Since 20160311 over 12 to 13, the stability is really nice now, i had exactly 0 irregular reboots. The audio volume of phone calls could improve but everything else is good enough now for daily use. After reboot still often a Flight Mode On/Off is required to get service (minor issue).

Two more observations:

-ES Explorer can not switch to root mode when an SD card is mergend into Phone memory but the internal CM13 Explorer can do

-Busybox command line tools still using google DNS instead of the DNS attached by DHCP
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
I have done the advanced wipe and I don't receive any errors when I put on the new rom.
[HTC One A9] djsubtronic:
What about music volume through the loudspeaker?
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Hi,

im using more specified devices for music, no phones so i have no music on it :). The ring tone is not very loud, but i prefer vibration not to annoy anybody.
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Okay.

I have tryed to do the advanced wipe whit same result.

I also tryed the full advanced wipe exept for my sd card whit same result + no detection of my sim card.

Where did you her your rom from? Maybe i got a bad download or some like that.
[HTC One A9] djsubtronic:
For those still using 14/01 and experiencing skipping of music when opening/closing apps, I figured out somewhat of a workaround. I use PlayerPro Music Player with DSP Pack and changed the audio buffer setting to "small" in settings -> audio (with DSP Pack enabled). It's a paid app and may not be your preferred music player, but if you already use it then you're in luck. Of course it won't help other apps but if you use your phone for music then it definitely seems to prevent the skipping.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
[MENTION=7119108]jjakajonas[/MENTION],

from the official location: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hiaeuhl
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Maybe it's my firmware then.

I run a 1.52 and not 1.27.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
So, the 20160314 update is instable again, same irregular reboots as before 20160311 (4 reboots in 3 hours) , so it is even less stabe then before 20160311 but this could be also by random. I could write a regression at bugzilla portal but i can not be very specific. Maybe a developer is reading it here? I have the feeling that is is rebooting within a network switch (LTE to WIFI to LTE, etc) .

I've cleared the caching partition twice, no improvement.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
[MENTION=937817]JaJ[/MENTION]jkajoas, user zorantoma reported this one page before.
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Can I some how downgrade my firmware?
[HTC One A9] Tikerz:
This is a known issue that will never/cannot be fixed according to the CM maintainer for this device.
[HTC One A9] djsubtronic:
Not with that attitude! I did see the post mentioning that the 14/01 build is potentially "dangerous"... what exactly does that mean though?

@Captain_Throwback [MENTION=1815755]intervigil[/MENTION]

Does this datasheet not help for the amp?

http://www.nxp.com/documents/short_data_sheet/TFA9895_SDS.pdf
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Okay..

So i have now downgraded my firmware from 1.55 to 1.27 and are now ready to play a bit whit CM 13 again.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Regarding my instability, i've made the observation that it is always instable (even with the build which i mentioned above) when switching to a weak Wifi where it takes a long time to switch from LTE to Wifi and the firewall needs a long time to reload the rules (i think it doesn't know if stay in Wifi or Switch back to LTE or switching between both and reloading the chains). When i'm at home i don't have these issues. I saw that 20160315 has many fixes, i will check tomorrow if something is covering my issue.

Just tested now:

20160315 is not helping, Wifi must be switched off to avoid instability in this particular network.
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Got my phone up and running CM13 at last.

As I see it atm then I can't get access to the developer menu and there for some root issues. Also I see some reported bugs but other then that do it run fine ?
[HTC One A9] Slorks:
Sound still not fixed aye?
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Still low
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Okay. I now got the developer menu so I can get root to work.
[HTC One A9] incaner:
I suppose the next nightly wi change alot for us and maybe solve a ton of problems/Bugs

Just check the device related commits (red ones)

http://www.cmxlog.com/13/hiaeuhl/

Lets hope the bootloops on 1.56 and the sound issues get fixed somehow

Gesendet von meinem HTC One A9 mit Tapatalk
[HTC One A9] Captain_Throwback:
I see nothing related to sound in there, but it appears hardware disk encryption is being enabled. Now someone will have to enable encryption and see if the latest TWRP can actually decrypt it (I'm curious about this myself).
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
These 2 are also device specfic:

hiae: Enable hardware disk encryption (android_device_htc_hiae-common)

hiae: Use prebuilt keystore HAL (android_device_htc_hiae-common)

ps.

i will encrypt but i want to keep it encrypted. If you explain me how to decrypt with TWRP i can do at least some checks. At the moment i can not really access with TWRP the SD card which is merged with internal memory.
[HTC One A9] Captain_Throwback:
You shouldn't have to do anything to decrypt with TWRP. And TWRP should be able to read adopted storage, so I'm not sure what the issue is there, as this is the first I've heard of it.

Flash the latest official TWRP and see if TWRP can decrypt the device. If not, please post a recovery log in the TWRP thread.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Where can i see the storage mounted in TWRP?

Ok,

i've booted TWRP right now and used the TWRP console to have a look at the monutns. Seems that you are correct, it is mounted under /external_sd . I have the latest version of TWRP installed and i'm sure that it was not always possible to access it. When i encrypt, will TWRP ask for a passsword and will it be the PIN i have used for the device?
[HTC One A9] Captain_Throwback:
If that password is being used to unlock the device at boot (and not just to unlock it after screen timeout), then yes, TWRP will prompt you for it. Otherwise TWRP should decrypt automatically with the default password. Any further questions about TWRP should be posted in the TWRP thread.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Np, passwort is used so no default password decryption should work.

i will test the encryption and report here once available.
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Did they skip the 20160316 update?
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Is anyone else having trouble installing xposed on the latest build, 3/15/16?
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Sideloaded 20160317. For the street kids, which know only mobile phones for listening Music, i have bad news - is has still environment friendly volume, so no change. I will test the encryption later this day.
[HTC One A9] thorium666:
Dear All,

the encryption was succesfully. TWRP is not accpeting the password and it is not able to mount the partition & it is not bringing me into its normal mode even without mounted partition, it is only rebooting, so it is completly unusable. I've used TWRP/Sideload to update the phone, do i have any other chance to update the phone if TWRP is not working, is the build in "Download" mode an alternative? . How can i verify if also the SD card (is configured as intenal memory) is encrypted?

ps.

the encryption has no negative impact on the performance of this device.

ps II

the new update is stable even in the problematic wifi, no reboots even forced often switches between LTE and WiFi
[HTC One A9] jjakajonas:
Are there others then me the have a screen flickering when there's only dark colors on the screen?

I'm on update 20160317.
