Can I just butt in here and point out that eurofighter_ty graciously responded to a request to rename the thread from CM to lineageOS and making this easier for everyone else to find.

Other noteworthy people who should be getting a beer (donation) are cmattern for originally patching the encyrption and posting the nightlies and invisiblek for being the developer pushing this all along on gerrit and GitHub. Their work will then filter into every other CM based ROM so give them a thanks or a donation for keeping the M8 more secure than relying on OTA (and it's now end of line anywhere) and giving us all a place to use the newest features. They have never asked, but give what you can afford.

Please explain a little more. I have Google camera v2.7 from open_gapps, where did v4.2 come from? AFAIK v2.7 only ever crashes using HDR mode and I believe it's the secondary camera the M8 has. I also have the HTC camera v7.3 which also works apart from HDR. I can't find that version on the play store.

From Apkmirror.com

I tried the latest version 4.2.035.141213305
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Off topic

Probably the wrong place to post unless it is regarding the HDR issues with the stock cameras from open_gapps or the play store but I used to be a photographer and have a weak spot so...

Just tested the ARM version, I believe from the description though that this camera is compiled Nexus specific. It crashed. The 2.7 play store version is also available and apart from HDR at least you'd have a working camera.

I also installed the latest HTC camera from that site and FC basically but the one on the play store works though it does seem to prefer having the HTC gallery app installed too (not just to use).

Another option would be to download Cyan Apps from the play store and the installing just the camera App. Although not built for LineageOS or even CM14.1 (there's a warning IIRC). I found the camera did work (except with HDR mode) and found it had a lot of useful manual functions for the more technically knowledgeable user.

HTC disappeared from download.lineageos.org. Anybody else noticed this?

Yes, look at post 703 and a few back for a full explanation. Short explanation, the official was bricking phones with encryption installed.

Has quick charge been added?

I'm not sure if my charger isn't working right, what's a good app to check?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Plug phone into either qualcomm certified quick charger 2.0 or 3.0 (it's backwards compatible) look at lock screen after a few minutes. If it says "charging rapidly" then yes. The answer is actually Yes anyway, cypherOS which is quite behind the main lineageOS even displays the voltage and current going in on the lock screen. I've also used the original HTC m8 UK plug charger which has 1.0 amps written on it and yet it exceeds that by a substantial margin.

Also the AIO and Aukey charging tech works to charge the phone faster (these are the quicker chargers you can buy on amazon, both block and batteries) They all work on basically the same principle. My observations on this (I am lucky enough to have all three chargers speed among the family), I use qualcomm 3.0 certified, it is tremendously fast to about 75% but the back of the phone can heat up like crazy (in a cold british house) CPU temps over 60%. I would actually state categorically that AIO and AuKey's tech is more conservative, slightly slower, and while I'm sure the qualcomm's spec is well within the boundaries of what the phone can handle, I feel uncomfortable on a hot summer day as to whether the shell could dissipate the heat fast enough not to effect the phone long term.

(BUT and it's a big one, a managed charger measuring the input/ output voltage is a lot safer than plugging the phone into a 2.4A cheaper charger like for a car socket, which is just asking for battery damage).
[One (M8) Original Android Development] LoneTempest:
Thank you for such a thorough response!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
You know how it is; bored one Xmas day load of different chargers, different ROM's, is brother's fancy new :cool: power brick better than the one that came with the phone? Bit of research into the tech, better than getting into an argument over the turkey. :D

NEWS

Officialy we don't have anything new to say regarding improving the M8 for Android N beacuse HTC has some strange things going on in the source. I don't know if you noticed but sometimes you loose the signal for about 4-5 seconds. The can be fixed by building the RIL from the CAF source. Now we are using the proprietary ones from HTC (Android 6.0). Everything sounds good till now: if we use CAF built RIL making calls no longer works on our variant (m8). On the dual sim variant and CDMA ones there are no problems with making calls so we are stucked on this. I no longer have the M8 myself but I will try (maybe the Team-M8 also) if I have time and some skills to port Android O once it gets released and of course see what changes bring on the table under the hood beacuse with Android N the camera HAL changed and the LineageOS devs needed to change some stuff.

With the AGPS still no solution. We tried everything in this regard and nothing works. For the Canadian users, we belive that this has some connection with the broken AGPS.

So for the conclusion:

- AGPS is broken

- Canadian users need to turn off location in order to use the phone

- We can't fix the signal on M8 at least for the moment.

- We will try to port Android O.

If you have any issues but they aren't related to the device you can fill bug report here:

https://jira.lineageos.org/projects/LINEAGE

So verizon users have no problem using caf-ril? Also Mobile data is broken in most of the caf roms. Got any idea?

Thank you!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Eurofighter_ty:
Yes, verizon users have no problems using CAF-RIL. If you're using verizon you can try using CAF-RIL by repopick these commits:

repopick 155203 155205 155206

then you need to delete from the vendor/htc/m8 the rild copy operation and also the PRODUCT Package or how is it called and also in the Android.mk file.

If you need more informations you can reach me on Telegram or Hangouts.

For the mobile data we had some issues but I don't remember what where the conditions.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
I can give some info on that, M8 turned up but a mismatch between gerrit and GitHub meant a file was missed out causing encryption to brick phones and requiring in some cases quite technical recovery and formatting partitions. The file is back in on GitHub, a release is imminent, but experimental also required rebuilding and then there's the whole "is this change going to affect anything else?".
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Sebianoti:
[MENTION=5930505]Eurofighter_ty[/MENTION] of course! That's why I made them.

[One (M8) Original Android Development] hans109h:
I see it in XDA labs however when trying to install it says it isn't compatible with m8.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Yes I believe that (v 4.3) is the latest specced slow mo camera for high end devices, probably ARM64 chips so as the M8 is 32 bit....

If you want a working camera apart from HDR then your choices are the normal camera from the play store (about version 2.7), HTC camera from the play store (about v7), download cm apps from the play store and there's a camera in there that complains (because I believe it's a CM12 app) but has lots or options for manual control for exposure.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Eurofighter_ty:
I don't know the situation about encryption on his personal builds from what read a few pages back but I can say that encryption will work on the next builds beacuse this commit was merged 2 days ago:

So, the next official build will work with encryption.

Oh yes, and take a back up first. Seriously, I made that mistake myself the first time this was released on the 25th :o

[One (M8) Original Android Development] David_UK:
Do you think they will make a rom for htc mini 2?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
I'm not in a position to know, there may be a thread somewhere on this forum. My understanding is that the transfer takes priority but if work started on it beforehand and the changes made already don't impact on a pre-existing project too much then there's a good chance it will turn up. The Experimental zip to change ROMs without data loss was a good (if not great) idea, but sucked developer resources.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] sensenku:
Do I have to go back to KitKat 4.4.2 and then install zip files?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
No not in the slightest. :confused:

Back up, install experimental (which gives you an overlay stating that you are in experimental) this makes sure all your data is in the right place to not lose it (hopefully), then install nightly on top. Then you are in nightly and never need to install experimental again. :good:

Encryption working and Bugs

Patch worked. Encrypted phone and storage much faster than expected. Details of configuration as follow.

HTC M8 (UK/ EU)

16Gb/ 2Gb

64Gb SD card formatted as F2FS for App storage

30th January Nightly Update from OTA (though OTA failed to install it did boot twrp 3.02-m8)

addon_su.zip installed as encryption issue was caused by selinux policy and I didn't want to take any chances but the phone encrypts before boot so it's probably not needed.

Total time - predicted 40 minutes, took about 20 minutes YMMV (very fast SD card installed).

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------

I had exactly the same issue on twrp 3.02-m8, though I did get a warning about needing a compatible recovery it did not give me any options, you too? I used the terminal in twrp to do a search. Also I have noted that the developer option to enable recovery or soft restart etc... has stopped working again in LineageOS it appears random as to whether when I turn the phone off it will give me the option to boot into recovery even if I turn the option on an off again, have su installed or not.

Other Bugs

No NFC icon in status bar editing or by default.

Google Pay still does not recognise NFC as valid. (but works with signed kernel).

[One (M8) Original Android Development] phillipp11:
Hello guys,

first of all thanks for this ROM. It wokrs great on my M8 :) I am on the newest nightly, from 25th December.

The only thing for me not working is my SD card. The OS recognize it and wants to formate it, but than i always get a timeout error.

Can somebone help me with this? Or does the SD card not work at all in this nightlyROM.

Thanks, Phil
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Sholawayde:
I believe if you format the sd through setting-storage, it will work, pls backup data from the sd before doing that
[One (M8) Original Android Development] phillipp11:
I do not have this option in my settings... there are no options for SD card. seems the phone does not recognize it

but i can use the SD card in teamview, so it is not damaged

When the OS trys to formate it i get this error: command `39 volume partition disk: 179_128 private´ failed with `400 39 Command failed`
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Sholawayde:
Goto settings on your phone, select storage, select sdcard 1, click the 3 dots tab at the top right corner, select storage settings, you find format
[One (M8) Original Android Development] phillipp11:
This is the thing i can´t do. Only have "Internal shared storage" when i go to settings --> storage; no SD card

This is why i am asking if the SD cars should normally work on this nightlyROM
[One (M8) Original Android Development] Sholawayde:
Try another sd card or reinsert it
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dasfreak:
Hey there,

I have this bug where the font of the cLock weather widget is black. It's hardly readable and I can't change it in the settings. I have this since I flashed cm14.1 (now on newest nightly of lineage). At first it was a dirty flash but I reflashed clean to see if it helps.

The font was white in cm13.

Does someone else have this problem? Can't find information about it on google or XDA.

Best regards
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Not exactly I have the calendar missing and the weather only updates manually. But to edit your widget it's best just to drag it off and put it on again and then you get all the configuration options (it's probably gone back to default) just do not hit out of the widget configuration until you have set everything else up, there really needs to be an interface to the cLock accessible without removing and replacing it. :D

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------

You probably have a corrupt partition table (even with one partition), pop it in a computer, run a diagnostic and repair. If necessary format it as exFat. And yes SD cards work on this nightly as portable and F2FS extended app storage.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] dasfreak:
You can edit your settings by opening the clock, clicking on the 3 dots in the upper right corner and then there is something like "widget settings". There you can edit everything except the weather color :laugh:
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Nope, clicking anywhere on my clock never brings up three buttons (I'm use cLock) just brings up the alarms.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] mraacidd:
I don't recommend so. Do a clean flash. Make sure to do a nandroid backup before that, as usual.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] hans109h:
It should also be noted that after an OTA update the updater doesn't recognize that the current version has been installed.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
Could you clarify, I found that it didn't know that my version of twrp was recovery update/ install compatible. OOOOh I see what you mean, when you click on Update then it says "yep" still install, which means I'm going to get a daily notification (probably). Good catch.

hey guys,

I've installed the unofficial and then the official version of this rom and gapps 7.1 however my phone boots up, gets to the 'get started' screen and just restarts and stays in this loop forever....

I'm able to Power+VOL UP button to 'restart' it and then boot it into recovery but I can't seem to get into the OS past the 'get started' screen

am I doing something wrong?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] DATA78Lux:
hi,

I can't install the official nightly from 30th January 2017, over OTA i get download error, and per PC download i get wrong zip signature in TWRP. I'm running the unofficial version LineageOS 14.1 from 27th January 2017 [Team-M8]

Someone else has the same problem or knows a solution?

Thanks in advance.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] timtwist:
You should flash the experimental build first, and then you can flash the official nightly. You can find both builds on the lineage website .
[One (M8) Original Android Development] DATA78Lux:
OK I'll try after lunch and report back
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
This was being discussed in another thread and he was pointed here for the correct info. The thing is, he has an OTA update which means he did manage to install the first m8 ROM (unless he doesn't know what an OTA is, which I'll admit it's a possibility). He's also been having problems with zip verification when downloading to a PC and then using twrp to MD5 verify the file, so I suspect it's more of a dodgy internet connection for the time being. I have provided him with the link for the OTA download as provided earlier on in this thread by another user as the OTA doesn't initiate twrp's recovery script to install and you have to find the file (repeat it below for any newcomers).

If you can't find your file after an OTA to the 30th Jan, then it's under /data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates and you can use the file manager in the twrp advanced menu to find it.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] DATA78Lux:
Well CutGlass,

my /data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates is empty.

Yes, i know what OTA is ;) I studied 5 year information technologies even when this is now over 18 years in the past ;)

timtwist,

Experimental build has the same error: "Zip signature verification failed!" and without the verification I get "Updater process ended with ERROR: 7"

Same problem when I try to install from internal storage.

I uses TWRP 3.0.2-0

I just tested to reflash the unofficial version LineageOS 14.1 from 27th January 2017 and this works as usual without an error.

Some others ideas i could try?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
No offence your English is excellent, but sometimes posters are not as familiar as you might think or indeed readers of the forums may need things explained a little more clearly than you need. If you had an OTA then you don't need experimental as you are in the nightly stream. Having said that, if app_updates is empty then as the OTA zip verification failed it probably deleted the file.

You don't need experimental if you are already in the nightly stream and have done experimental before. The updater process failing is probably normal then, the zip, not so much.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] baxter006:
Seems pretty good but why doesn't VR 360 work? It didn't work with cyogenmod either, not sure if it's connected to the AGPS.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] DATA78Lux:
No worries, no offense taken :) You couldn't know my background :)

Well, I've switched from CM14.1 latest nightly to LineageOS 14.1 unofficial nightly from 17th January 2017 without doing experimental and updating every day per hand.

Confirmed Updater bugs for 31st Jan 2017

There is certainly an issue as reported previously by another user on the update for the 31st Jan. The updater takes many attempts to verify it.

There's also an issue with the LOS changelog app that may be related, MD5 files stored in the changelog were coming up as unreadable data.

Am just doing a full backup to try and verify the location of the file since the updater no longer triggers twrp recovery and yet we have no recovery image from lineageOS (I checked extras, if I am wrong then please let me know), I may have an old CM recovery on a backup disk I could try.

Update.

Files downloaded by the LineageOS updater are still being stored under /data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates

Dirty flashing 31st Jan over 30th works using twrp with encryption intact and if you can find it at the above location.

Handy tip.

If in the updater you hold down on the file it gives you the option to delete it, otherwise you could run out of RAM very quickly.

The bug where it was always telling you a new update was available as the updater did not appear to be checking the installed version appears to have been fixed (I used the delete function, refreshed and this seems to confirm).

Normal bugs still: live display just turns on and off at random, Apps tend to display the message to swipe down to leave full screen dialog. But big plus point, I believe this is the first update where my battery icon has not changed to a circle and removed the percentage.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] LoneTempest:
I've been experiencing constant WiFi signal drops as far back as CM14 and now my phone doesn't even connect to WiFi automatically.

It says "disabled" until I manually press "connect".

I thought that maybe it was limited to my college WiFi, but that's not the case.

Has anyone else had this issue?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] CutGlass:
A lot of Canadians apparently. You might want to have a look back and see as various ideas and workarounds have been put forward and it can even be linked to AGPS (I'm not even sure how to tell the difference, my location services work on all settings, but the wifi seems to yo-yo with clash of clans, but I only started playing this week :D ).
[One (M8) Original Android Development] LoneTempest:
