Yep, but I have the same issue on a standard M8 and I've just noticed the cLock widget is crashing repeatedly and not finding the location even though I've just checked with privacy guard and it has apparently "never asked" for any location data. Seems that went strange after they put the temperature font back in. Only way to get it working was to clear cache, uninstall and re-configure, but the last two zips still lock out my device. Fortunately I bought a second M8 for testing as it was becoming too much to do the SD card testing and be without a phone and look after my family. (such is modern day life and SMS communication).

You need the latest TWRP
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
I have 3-0-2-m8 and it also does not install from the updater, it does boot into recovery however which is progress whereas previously it just failed. It still needs manual intervention. The exact conditions are, dirty flash either of the last two releases via TWRP (clean cache), the "update recovery" option in developer options is turned off. No error messages, md5 files match. Phone reboots showing the lineageOS logo for over two hours while heats up like crazy, as if it is doing something with the CPU. 64Gb+ file formatted as internal storage, (fast Lexar card) Entire system size if only 5Gb from a Nandroid backup which is removed from the phone before the reboot just in case it is something to do with file indexing and to hurry it along. No error messages, nothing. Someone has suggested flashing the latest open_gapps which sounds unusual, as everything is uptodate.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] skhan003:
Ok i understood.

But can you suggest me any page or link (Install Nougat with Lineage) for my htc m8 eye ? :D :D
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Jamie_oppo:
Where do I download the stock marshmallow rom just in case something happens. (For international m8) there's some sites but I don't know if they are legit.

Edit: I found it sorry http://www.htc.com/us/support/rom-downloads.html
[One (M8) Original Android Development] timtwist:
Just Google HTC one m8 eye custom ROM. There should be useful results for your on the first page.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Low_Key_13:
Would using cleaner apps with this ROM be worthwhile? I used Clean master and/or AIO to cleanup storage space and RAM on stock marshmallow ROM but unsure if I should with this one. Thanks in advance!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Jamie_oppo:
No. They just drain battery. Clearing the ram is bad on android compared to windows and all the app does it clear cache which is unnecessary.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] HypostaticOnion:
I recommend SD Maid for cleaning storage

Just tried today unsuccessfully to use Aroma, the next button doesn't work.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] 1aladdin1:
Lineage-SU or Super-SU from Chainfire. Which one is better?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] ahmed.ismael:
Depend on your use of the root access

For example some mods required SuperSU but most of the apps are ok with LOS-SU
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
I use MagiskSU ;).
[One (M8) Original Android Development] mraacidd:
the only issues i have with aroma was when flashing gapps, it took me back to recovery, where I reflashed again. never had issues with buttons. sorry it happened to u.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
What's your device variant? I know Sprint devices have issues with touch in AROMA - a patched AROMA binary is needed to circumvent the issue.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] hans109h:
Guess what! I'm on a Sprint Harman Kardon.

Any clue where more information on the patched binary can be found?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
The binary is in this zip: https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3652460&d=1455906822

You'll just need to replace the file "update-binary" (found in the META-INF folder in the OpenGapps zip) with the one in that zip (from the "aroma binaries" folder), and you should then be able to navigate in AROMA normally using the touch screen.

It would be thankful if you'ill help me to install nougat with lineage in my htc m8 eye.... :good:
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
This should really be a new thread entirely. Yes, it's probably what the M8 should have been after the experiment with the camera. And the M8 has issues with lineageOS and its camera, but an M8 eye is going to have totally different firmware for it's camera which would require a different build, so start a new device thread, see if there is interest from enough people and someone might just pop out the existing M8's firmware find firmware from a related camera and that could work.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] wistlo:
Lineageos OK, then Super SU, now cannot access bootloader

I successfully updated a carrier-unlocked M8 to Lineage OS.

Titanium Backup was getting stuck on restoring a few particular backups, so I took the Titanium splash screen advice regarding superuser version, and installed Chainfire Super SU app to replace the addonsu-arm64 Lineage root enabler.

Uh oh. The Chainfire app re-booted into TWRP 3.0.2.0-m8, ran an OpenRecovery script, and brought up the Lineage boot animation.

That's where it stops now, showing the animation until the battery runs out. This appears to have been a Bad Idea. I'd recommend against the app installed SU for M8 Lineage users.

The device is ignoring power+volume key sequences (both [VolUp+Pwr] for power off, and [VolDown+Power] for bootloader, even when powered up from a dead battery. I did not think to disable HTC proprietary "Fastboot" from the OEM menu before starting my Lineage wipe and upgrade.

Now wIth USB connected, the PC (which successfully communicated before this mishap) makes friendly "device found" noises when powering up, but fastboot (again, which worked on the same PC before this) does not see the device. The M8 goes to the bootloop animation without responding to power+volume key press. During the boot animation, ADB recognizes the device but shows it as "unauthorized" (the computer had been previously authorized, not sure how that got lost).

In summary, I cannot get the bootloader to appear via hard button press combos, and I can't use adb without authorization to reboot to recovery or bootloader, even after waking from a dead battery. Ideas?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] mhasan90:
Any significant improvement on network reception in latest nightlies? Previous ones I was getting bad reception, had to switch back to CM13.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
I had a similar problem with an unofficial regarding encryption where the vol up->power down combo would not work and I had to let the device run down. This is going to be hard, but use a computer to charge the device to the minimum and not a 2.0 amp or qualcomm 2.0 supply and then as soon as it is fractionally charged, unplug it and do the power -> vol down to try and get into hboot. Eventually I did get it but it did take at least three goes and I was at the point of giving up. At least using the minimal charge method you also get more goes at trying it, or you could quickly use a 2.0 charge but at the beginning the phone charges so quick it's easy to get 20% and then you have to wait...

Having HTC HBOOT is not a bad thing. The odd thing is that the device must not have a corrupted boot.img because it gets to the ADB authorisation stage in the boot up (whereas TWRP has no such thing), freezing there is unusual but unless there is an ADB expert on bypassing authorisation after boot then it's trying to get into HBOOT.

As for chain fire, I have to disagree, it is titanium backup that has caused many issues through this thread as it looks to back up things that are against the selinux policy and it is littered through this thread that it has issues from freezing to failing.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] wistlo:
That's what I was trying, repeatedly VolDown+Power right after getting a 1% battery via computer USB charge.

FInally got it. I was holding power too long at power-on. The VolDown button needs constant pressure, but the Power button needs to be released as soon as the device wakes up. I had forgotten how touchy (literally) HTC hard control buttons are.

The Chainfire app was what immediately preceded my problem. I understand TItanium may not work with this device/ROM. I can live without being able to TItanium-restore all my apps, even the pain-in-the-neck secure token key app that requires all kinds of hoops to jump through via my employer's VPN. But, I would still advise caution adding SU via app to Lineage OS. I'd recommend directly flashing, whether it's SuperSu or the Lineage add-on.

Now that I'm alive again, I'm considering updating to the latest HTC RUU. Current on HTC's site is 6.20.502.5, my device is at 6.13.631.7 (dated Dec 12, 2015).

Update: Stories of lost LTE access scared me off, sticking with old firmware. Also, discovered that VolUp plain doesn't work. Will live without.

Stability?

Hi all,

I am a new user at xda-developers forum.

First of all I want to thank the community here, because It really provided some useful infos and tricks to me in the past. ;) THX!

Now my question.

Anyone here who can report about the overall stability and usability of the

Lineage OS 14.1 on the HTC one m8

? Everything working? Some issues? Can you recommend it or is it in a beta or even early alpha phase?

I am a HTC One m7 user since a 2+ years, ran Cyanogenmod in it most of the time. Last week I installed Lineage OS 14.1 from the official nightly and I really like it. It is running surprisingly stable, as the CM did before. Only usability issues I see is that Exchange Sync is not working (permission issue) with the pre-installed mail App to a MS Exchange. To an OpenXchange provider it is working... A bit wierd. As a workaround I am using Gmail App right now..

Now, that the HTC One m8 is getting cheaper and is still a greate phone (also my One m7 has the well known camera issue which makes the cam not really usable) I am considering buying a new One m8.

Cheers & thanks, folks!

Greetings from Germany.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xtremez:
Seems okay, although once booted it took longer than usual to settle. Phone became laggy and hot for the first hour or so.

---------- Post added at 09:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 AM ----------

It's definitely usable, although if you are looking to purchase a new device i would suggest to look for a newer phone. The 2GB of RAM can be a bottle neck and battery life can go down quickly on graphically heavier stuff like gaming etc. But things like this phone's front facing speakers, are difficult to find.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] surya.tokas.15@gmail.com:
will this work on sprint unlocked m8
[One (M8) Original Android Development] devNock:
Probably.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] surya.tokas.15@gmail.com:
i m getting error 7 while trying to flash.

any solution?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] devNock:
Could be due to various reasons. Such as:

1) Old firmware

2) Incorrect Device ROM (.Zip)

3) Incorrect partition table

For first one, ensure that you are on the lastest firmware as provided by your network. Then try to flash the ROM via TWRP.

For the second, try to make sure that the ROM is for One M8 and is not corrupted.

Thirdly, before flashing the nougat ROM make sure to wipe the entire internal storage including /system, /data etc. Then install the ROM.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] surya.tokas.15@gmail.com:
i just wiped system and it worked sorry for troubling you. and thanks
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
I would have the opposite opinion. The M8 has an SD card slot up to 128Gb, any phone playing graphics is going to wear down the battery, it's geek bench results still beat the mid-range phones. The camera doesn't really work on any ROM for HDR mode only and it's resolution is low but then for a snapshot to take a note it works fine. At the current prices it's a bargain and I got a second one so I'd always have one free for dev work, as for 2Gb being a bottleneck, no, there are so many phones that are still 8Gb/1Gb even current motorolas at the price point for value for money I can't think of a better phone an LG Nexus 5 dated from the same period and I believe has the same processor as does an xperia z2, the LG may be better supported for ROM's but the Z2, I had one, the waterproof covers break off from constant use.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] devNock:

[One (M8) Original Android Development] kowy3:
Hello everybody

I'm currently on 03-09-2017 nightly. I have an M8_UL_CA variant with stock kernel, Magisk installed.

I have a problem with the proximity sensor which seems a software issue because I haven't experienced it on Marshmallow. I even loaded my MM backup and it works fine. So I only have this problem on LineageOS 14.1.

So the problem:

When I'm trying to make a call my screen immediately goes black and it's hard to wake it up again. So if I want to hang up the call I need to press the power button but sometimes I need to press the power button 5-6 times to get the screen back. The strange thing is, sometimes it works but in 80% my screen goes black. Sometimes it does the same when I'm receiving a call, after I pick it up it goes black immediately.

Anyone else has experienced this problem?

Any possible solutions?

Thanks in advanced :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] x-ploded:
Thanks, guys for your replies and opinions:good:;)

What I did not really consider yet is the fact, the the HTC One m8 does not have the inductive, phyiscal navigation buttons like the m7 has. They are software buttons now - right? How about the usability of that? Are the buttons then implemented differently - depending on the ROM you use?

Second thing. Meanwhile I have read couple of reviews about the m8 and most of them say that the camera is kind of a "show stopper"? I am a bit into photographing but also know, that a phone cam will never replace a real one. But I have seen holiday pics from a recent iPhone (same pics like I have taken at the same time with my compact samsung cam) and have to admidt that they looked quite good for phone pics.

Also they say (some) that HTC is more an more stopping delivering up-to-date stuff if you are using the stock ROM.

I know - this is more a phone and not a ROM related question - BUT ...

[MENTION=7981445]CutGlass[/MENTION], you have stated some alternative phones. Question - what would be a good alternative if I want to have a better camera but still a HD screen (1920x1080px) Plus I want to have the vendor support for unlocking and flashing different ROMs. I have heard from a colleague that unlocking does not (??) work for Sony phones for example.

Thanks & cheers

[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Probably not the best thread to ask in really ;)

As a former photojournalist 4 megapixels is enough and i would quote you the shuttle challenger that was front page on every newspaper and taken from 480p television. Also the Oklahoma bombing fireman building the child was a fractional crop from a compact camera that one a Pulitzer.

But if you are insistent then Sony has the reputation but get a docking station rather than needing to open and reopen the water seals (£20 on eBay or less) but i was never that impressed as the tiny sensor is noisy at low light levels. Also the m8 is tough, like drop on concrete tough and dent rather than shatter the glass back of an iPhone or Sony.

If you want a challenge then i put my m8 against your camera in anything about 28mm equivalent focal length. :cool:
[One (M8) Original Android Development] :
I have been reading this conversation for a couple of days now. M8 is by far the most durable smartphone I've ever used. I've dropped it so many times on streets and roads and I didn't had a case on. My wife threw it against the wall in a heated argument with me. Guess what, nothing happened to it other than a few tiny scratches and dents.

I bought a Nexus 5 after M7 but the hardware & camera was so cheap I switched to M8.

Software wise, HTC has by far the best development on xda after Nexuses or maybe i'm being biased but I haven't seen such development for Galaxys. And running Nougat 7.1.1 on this 2014 phone with no hiccups in this day and age when companies don't support phones after months or a year is a blessing.

This phone still flies and outperforms even this years mid-rangers.

I would just want to attach an image and leave it here. Yes M8's camera is 4.1 megapixels but this ultrapixel is way ahead. Only the cameras that came out last year and this year in phones outshine it and that too because they have bigger pixels (that take in more light) inspired by this camera. I wish HTC had not left this ultrapixel camera and just updated in number of pixels wise.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] x-ploded:
Thanks again for your input ;) Yes that are the points why I still like my m7 too, despite the annoying camera issue in the early models. I cannot use my camera because of the "purple" bluring issue.

/edit: + I have to admit that I laughed about the story of your wife, throwing phones around (isnt't that a serious thing to consider when designing phones ;) )

I not want to bother, but can you also comment on my question regarding the "software" buttons? Would be great. THX
[One (M8) Original Android Development] xtremez:
On screen buttons are okay if you ask me, it's slightly more versatile. When i was on 6.0 Marshmallow, I had a 4th button to screen off to prevent using the power button so often.

Now on 7.1.1, I use the same layout as the Pixel but I do not have those colored buttons for Google Assistant.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] x-ploded:
OK ;) So you mean, it is kind of an improvement compared to m7?

I figured out, that the technically correct term should be: "capacitive keys" ..
[One (M8) Original Android Development] :
This discussion can be done in the general section of device forum. This thread is about LineageOS.

As for the M7 purple haze, I had an earlier affected model too. You can find my posts https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2465651&page=124 and https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317507&page=459

The company replaced affected cameras free of charge.

And I don't get your question regarding software buttons. They work exactly the same. They are just on the screen.

P.S. Wife factor is a must ;)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] x-ploded:
Ok, will stop posting phone hardware specific stuff here.

It might be too late to get that fixed with my m7 by HTC, it is 2 years + old.

Why I am asking this (maybe stupid) software button question - simply because I never got my hands on a phone with that new fancy feature ;) So I have never seen it in reality. THX by the way.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] :
I would second what the gentleman above said. Software buttons are customizable and handy. You'll get used to them in no time.

I'm on lineage-14.1-20170309-nightly-m8-signed an SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742. This combination works fine so far.

In the past, it was required on GPE or AOSP ROMs to download this app for the other HTC apps to work. That's why I downloaded it with the HTC Camera and Gallery app. Later I found out that the apps mentioned above work without requiring this app. So I Uninstalled it.

I'm using HTC Camera, Gallery and Video Player apps on LineageOS.

Hello,

When i've use this ROM, i have see my quality of the picture taken from the Camera APP is low than stock rom.

That's normal ? Or did i need to install a package or a specific app ?

Thank you ! :)
[One (M8) Original Android Development] SB1990:
That's almost certainly because the stock ROM from HTC includes camera software that optimizes the quality of the camera. I would suggest flashing the HTC Camera apk from the Themes and Apps section to bring back the HTC camera (unless it isn't working 100%...).
[One (M8) Original Android Development] BryanNikson:

[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
You can download the stock HTC camera app from the play store. HDR still crashes, but it's a start.

If you mean the bootloop canadians get, from what I remeber, they tried and said it cant be fixed, they were going to ask the beanstalk dev how it works for them but the beanstalk dev seems indisposed at the moment.

If not then not sure but I think its related.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] mihran_thalhath:
You have to disable agps in frameworks/base while building the rom to get the rom working properly for canadians. I have compiled a some builds of AICP and a build of AOSCP for Canadian users.
