[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petarcrncec:
Hi,

I'm trying to install custom rom (the same one) on my device as well. Do I need a different kernel or S-off in order to flash the ROM? i would like to modify my phone as little as possible in order to avoid any possibility of a hard brick. tnx
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:
if you want to flash custom rom you only need unlocked bootloader + twrp installed

no need for another kernel or s-off
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petarcrncec:
Tnx for the response, I've assumed that would be the case so I did it anyway yesterday and I'm glad to report it is working ;)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
To be clear, the kernel flashes with the ROM on this device, and that is true with s-on.

There are older HTC devices, where you had to flash the kernel separately by fastboot, or have s-off (in which case, kernel would flash with the ROM). But none of this ever applied to the M8.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petarcrncec:
Thanks for the clarification, that's probably why i got confused (watched some older video on rooting, kernel, c roms and so on). So which parts of software (or hardware) would you want to manipulate with or change that would require s-off?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Always be sure to research the root/mod methods for your specific device (not just another HTC phone, etc.). Every phone has its own peculiarities and nuances.

There is a number of modifications that require s-off, such as changing CID/MID, flashing modified hboots, manually flashing radios, flashing older version RUU ("downgrading") and a number of other things.

But for root, flashing ROMs, and most other common mods, just having an unlocked bootloader, custom recovery TWRP and s-on is enough.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
The ROM that you installed is pre-rooted, no need to root again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K4R33M:
Thank you, although when I'm trying to install Apps that require roots like (Xframeword, Privacy..) It keeps telling that I need Root.

Edit: Precisely when trying to install Xposed Installer: (Failed to get root access)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K4R33M:
Root access to install Xposed Installler

This is what I get when trying to install Xposed Installer (Attached Screenshots).

How could I proceed.

Thank you
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:
Flash the xposed framework in recovery

Download it from the app itself as seen in your screenshot ( version 87 ) and flash in twrp
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K4R33M:
Hi,

I will install it via Recovery as shown in the attached screenshot.

Next, what shall I do? how to flash in TWRP, and what is the aim from flashing.

Thank you
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:
Why you need to install xposed while you don't know about it ? :confused:

Flash in recovery by boot to recovery and tap install then navigate to the .zip location in storage and sweep to confirm that's how to flash a .zip from twrp
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K4R33M:
Well, I think I know a little about it, else, how I managed to install the indicated Rom.

Although, what I was asking about, since the Isntalled Rom is already pre-rooted, why do I need a full flash using TWRP again.

Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:
Root and xposed is tow different things you need root for something and xposed for a different thing

for example you don't need root to have a working xposed framework ( some modules require root though )

So it's up to you and what you will use

We can tell you what you have to do if you tell us what you up to
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
What I think he meant was: if you want to use Xposed, read and understand about it first. You should have read the basic instructions on how to install it.

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

In order for xposed to work, you need to flash the xposed framework using TWRP, period. It's not complicated, and it's stated in the instructions clearly.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K4R33M:
I am a bit confused here, the situation is like this: I need Xposed installed in order to use some modules mainly (Xprivacy..).

I have tried to install TWRP using Adb (Attached) which I assume it wasn't successful so far.

how to proceed now.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Hey everybody!

To God be the glory, I've been making some custom roms on XDA for a while, but I have decided to try to learn some new things by taking an app developer course. I've made a few apps, and I thought I would share them here as well. This app is open source, you are welcome to go to the Github and post issues, review and or copy the code (it is Apache-2.0 licensed), or download the app and enjoy!

These are my first apps, and I know they need a little improvement. So please feel free to leave a comment! But please remember, the best criticism is constructive.

If you do check out my Github, note that just about every line of my code includes a comment as to what it does or why it exists, so if you are like me and new to Android programming, be sure to check it out to see how it works! Also, in my Github are many "small apps" in the "apps_small" repo, which are apps I either made for the class, or made on the side to test out some feature or function. Hopefully that would be useful to someone.

Without further ado:

A simple, open source app that allows you to search posts on Craigslist.

This app allows you to search Craigslist and save on bandwidth at the same time. The search is only text, which presents you with a list of your search criteria. Then, when you select a posting that you wish to see, it will be displayed as normal in a special web view window. With simple colors and controls, this helps you focus on what is really important: the posts!

Other than the Craigslist postings, there are NO ADVERTISEMENTS!

This app allows you to save on mobile data, as only a small picture of the item is loaded with a price, date, and description (if provided by the poster). You can also click the web browser to open and view the full post if you desire!

You are welcome to stop by the Github (link in app) or website (link in app) to see progress for new features, or if you are into open source coding, you are welcome to submit pull requests and get involved!

[Android Apps and Games] MishaalRahman:
One thing I would suggest immediately is to do away with that background and change the font color. A simple black background with white text would work better, but ideally a Material Design layout would be best!
[Android Apps and Games] AlaskaLinuxUser:
MishaalRahman,

I have some thought to your proposal, and realized you are right, to a degree.

I happen to like the color scheme as is, but I realize that others may prefer something else. The sell cars in every color, so why not let just Craigslist come in more color options?

So, starting with version 1.6, you now have the choice of several colors for title bars, text, backgrounds, and buttons! There are also several pictures to choose from. So now you may have your preferred black background with white text, and I may have my cyan city! Everybody wins! :D

Thanks for the great suggestion! Please see OP for a few screenshots.
[Android Apps and Games] aqamorisny:
feedback

i test your app i think you should convert question mark ( ? ) button to search button ( ? ) and move help to top right.
[Android Apps and Games] AlaskaLinuxUser:
Great suggestion. One problem though: if the user types anything, like a price or search criteria, then the keyboard covers that button. So if the search button was down there, the user would have to hit the back button to make the keyboard disappear, then hit the search button. Do you think that would confuse new users?
[Android Apps and Games] AlaskaLinuxUser:
After some testing and feedback, it looks like you are right. I have added the search button to the bottom right, and I also added the feature that when you press the enter button on the keyboard after typing, it will search.
[Android Apps and Games] coldcrypto:
Can you flash the rom on a 2 year old phone, then root and wipe the total existing operating system. Then install a simple liinux basic kernal. Rendering it incapable of transmitting any data for the rest of its life except for screen display. This includes stopping and/or erasing all , bluetooth, wifi, cell tower transmission, sound, etc. This is needed to be done in order to create a device that protects utmost user security. Does anyone in XDA, know if this can be done. , And if it can, can it be done using an app or a previously installed read only program installed upon an external sd card
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] baselsw:
The MonkeyUpdates Team felt kinda sorry for the people getting a flood of SMS messages from BaselsSMS'er, so we basically made a Anti SMS flooding software.

When BaselsAntiFlooder is activated it will take full control of your SMS messages. With other words it will be your SMS inbox instead of the built in Windows text reader. When you've recieved a new message you will get a notification (as usual!) saying that "You've got a new SMS".

To read SMS messages you have to click on the desired message in the console and it will show up in a window.

If you're getting a bunch of flood SMS, BaselsAntiFlooder will save one copy of the SMS and remove the rest or with other words will block their interception.

In the past we've got complains about BaselsReply and BaselsSMS'er not having a minimize button. You don't have to worry about BaselsAntiFlooder! It got a minimize button and a System Tray icon. When you minimize BaselsAntiFlooder, a system tray icon will show up. To bring BaselsAntiFlooder back, just double tab with your pen on the icon.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] arse7en:
I'm trying to install LineageOS and I am pretty much stuck on one part. I'm on stock currently and do not have two but my device is unlocked. Now my question is if I need to flash twrp that is given in the LineageOS thread and then reboot into recovery and flash the ROM+ GApps or if I need to flash twrp compatible with EMUI5 then flash LineageOS+ GApps and finally flash the twrp that is compatible with LineageOS giving in that thread... Before anyone says that if I'm confused I shouldn't be flashing Roms I'd like to say I have tons of experience doing so but this is troubling me and I just rather ask a question if anyone has an answer to it before I pull the trigger and just do it.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:

Userguide:

Marshmallow

Update from any Custom ROM or old firmware to latest MM firmware through ota or dload to gain the Nougat upgrade, theres no other methods than this.

Unlock bootloader and flash twrp for N 3.1......

resume right away with point 1

Nougat

1. A Custom ROM always needs the latest twrp + firmware installed before flashing to bypass driver changes made by huawei or it can cause errors or bootloops. It might working on some versions until they change something under the hood, then its necessary to update with dload.

2. Go to twrp, wipe -> Adwanced Wipe

3. Wipe this: Cust, Data, Internal Storage, System, Vendor, Product and Version to have a clean start

4. Flash the firmware you have downloaded.

5. Don't worry about mountencrypt error, it all works well.*

6. Flash SuperSU after you find here

7. Done

*Huawei binarys working a bit different than we use, but we can't avoid them until we have a better solution.

Lol, why would someone release ROM without testing it (I assume he hasn't cause anyone haven't been able to install the b381)

I really don't know.

It seams a bit pointless at the mo.

We have a ROM that nobody can use
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
You can test it, but i dont know, if it fits with the settings of B380. because of drivers or other changes.

What is the point of this rom if nobody can use it?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
What is the point, not update the phone?

Why i should provide a version for a predeprecated base firmware if you have to update to B381 anyway to use any newer ROM from anyone released?

First think what you want to use, before posting here nonsense.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] alekos panagulis:
There's no need to be rude.

No one was able to install B381 yet, and we don't know when and if will be possible.

Did you test your custom rom before releasing it? If yes, could you be so patient to explain to the masses how did you install it? If not, what's the point in releasing a non tested and not usable rom?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
The ROM is not a problem, if it works with my script on P9 it should also do on Honor 8. Its the same setup.

I said allready, if u update through dload to B381, the ROM will work properly then. To make you guys happy, if you cant update at this time, i will build a B380 version, but without any changes, as a gift to you. But for future please update, or it wont work.

Install guide will be posted ASAP.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] pix106:
As someone else told before, for now no one here got this B381 update through OTA, or could install it using Firmware Finder, or Charles method.

I tried ota/full ota, with FF and Charles, the validation process of the update always fails, so it can't be installed.

So for a lot of us, the latest available and installable version is B380.

The question still is : how did you install B381 ?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
[MENTION=3064479]pix106[/MENTION] I have a P9, not H8. The simple process doesn't need the required device.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] pix106:
So this ROM has not been tested in any way. It's not serious to publish an untested ROM.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
[MENTION=3064479]pix106[/MENTION] I won't talk about that anymore. The script is 100% identical on Hisi950/955, there is no need to test it. I compared it with P9, P9 Plus, Lite, Mate 8, all use same script.

[MENTION=4900664]dkionline[/MENTION] Please provide the kernel source as you are violating GPL at the moment. Also if this ROM does not boot and hasn't been properly tested as you've mentioned here I'm giving you some time to fix it. In another case, this thread will be closed.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] johnhux7:
Well said.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
You want to annoy me now, that sucks, really. ^^ If you guys can't understand what i write, i quit H8 Forum and you stay without anything, is that better?

I still don't know what you want exactly, i said allready before, that it works on all Hisi 950/955 with same script, no need to test it before releasing.

Say me what GPL I violate, if the kernel source is not released in any way and i use stock kernel.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] eagleeyetom:
Okay, so you can point out in the OP that you're using stock kernel. Your attitude is great, I am an admirer. So should I assume that you are not going to maintain this ROM properly?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] OldDroid:
we have no kernel source since huawei/honor doesn't provide it.

I can also tell the same as dkioline, because those roms share so much in common between their platforms, stuff made for p9 can also be used on h8.

Best Regards
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] eagleeyetom:
Hey, hey. Long time no see :) If you are using stock kernel, mention that in the OP.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
P9 + H8 = 100% same buildup for custom rom. It works on P9 also here on honor 8. The problem is, no one is on B381. I decided to build B380 so everyone can flash it. Thats the situation and nothing against the rules and you can't say its not maintenained properly and others do the same with more devices. All users with this device know, that huawei/honor still not released kernel source for Nougat.

Edit: Just to be clear, if i would use custom, i would write in OP, but why to explain if all is stock.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] eagleeyetom:
I understand that some OEMs (actually a lot) can't care less about GPL. They follow their financial plans. I am going to investigate what XDA can do about it. The problem is not that you are blind building, but the fact that nobody tested it. You could PM one or two members asking them to test a build before releasing it to the public with a shiny beta status. Some users have already expressed their concerns and you got angry with them. I'm just trying to protect as many users as I can from bootlooping. We all hate to restore the backup.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
[MENTION=3544509]eagleeyetom[/MENTION] Ill build the last B380 working for all and the problem is gone. If someone reported against the rules, its not an issue, if the build can hit to your device in some days or weeks after huawei releases ota.

How you do that if u on holidays? Right, never.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] eagleeyetom:
It's not a question to me, but to your users. If it boots properly, I see no issues at all. Let's wait for your build and see what happens :)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
Depends what you mean with Gapps, maybe not wiped all parts needed to flash a clean build.

Ill make all things clear today with proper instructions + B380 build.

edit: B380 is up for all.

Same question here. Simply emui 5.0 without bloatware or custom stock android rom ?

And screenshots
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] stephtban:
When a rom is announced without bloatware you can assume it's based on stock (emui in that case).

Besides that, OP refers to B380 and B381 that are clearly emui roms.

What's the point of this rom? Give some love to our lonely Honor 8 desperately waiting its sources.
