[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp3tan:
Hello everyone. Since the Title has character limit im gonna have to explain myself here better.

Ive had my HTC One M8 for 4 years now. Pretty much since it came out in 2013. I installed ARHD back in 2014 and its been working just fine ever since. A couple of months ago i decided to go back to 45.0. Everything went smooth and everything works just fine.

But a week ago the phone decided to just go woopdido and it wouldnt open up any apps in Playstore although i could still see them. So i tried to restart it and when i did it got stuck at the HTC Logo. I tried to restart it a few times but it kept getting stuck. I was super confused due to the reason that i havent really done anything with my phone besides since the day i installed ARHD 45.0. I got desperate so i reinstalled it but this time with 53.1 and that went fine too except for one fishy thing and that was that i remember before when installing ARHD, when it got 30% it wouldnt take 2-3 minutes for it to finally start installing the ROM. It would take a couple of seconds for it to start right away and be done.

After installing 53.1 phone worked just as fine except for the fact that it was slower than it has ever been before. Which was also weird. Either way. After a couple of hours of it working, setting up every app i needed i restarted it and again it was stuck at the HTC Logo. Welp i guess..

So after that crap i went back to 45.0 again. It went good and all except it keeps getting stuck at 30% for a while but whatever. Going back to 45.0 though didnt help. Keeps repeating the same crap after a while. After a restart when having the phone doing nothing for hours gets it stuck at HTC Logo again. I literally cannot do anything with it atm and i have no clue how to go further from here as i have not had this before.

The HTC One M8 is rooted. S-Off everything you really need. The current TWRP version i have is 3.1.1.0.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Your firmware may be outdated. I would think it would be, as you said you haven't installed anything to the phone since 2014.

This (old firmware) alone would play havoc with the current ROMs. And also not play well with current TWRP, which may explain why going back to ARHD 45 is still resulting in problems.

What goes it day for OS number on the bootloader screen? If blank, what are the hboot and radio numbers?

The original issue could have just be due to some damage or corruption to the OS. It happens.

Also, the phone was released in 2014, not 2013.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp3tan:
It was released in 2014? Welp why did i think it was 2013? Either way.

You missunderstood me but its all good because its on me. I was meant to say that i havent touched anything since i installed 45.0 a couple of months ago right. The firmware is fine and all for the current version i have. It was for 53.1 too.

And out of the blue it just got stuck on the HTC Logo. I tried something and it was updating the SuperSU which actually was the reason why it got stuck on the HTC Logo. I installed 2.79 and now it boots just fine and the phone is back on speed again. Apparently 2.82 has issues which is the version i assume it tried to update to through both TWRP and Playstore.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Ah, I do see now that you stated you installed ARDH 45 a couple months ago. There is a lot of info there, so I missed that part.

Glad to hear you sorted it out. It's unusual to see a simple SuperSU update cause such a chain of event; but s#it happens I suppose.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp3tan:
Yeah it does. I also forgot to mention that my microphone went to sh*t also. But its not because of this event. Although after this last reinstall i did the microphone picks up my voice better than it did before it went crap. But people cant still hear me when they call me :(

I did another reinstall of 45.0 just now and this time i also wiped the System, Data all that which ive never done before hoping that it actually helps.

The HTC One M8 is rooted. S-Off everything you really need. The current TWRP version i have is 3.1.1.0.

Update: Apparently after reinstalling any version of ARHD and then updating SuperSU breaks the phone. Any ideas?

[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] Samridh Srivastava:
So the problem starts like this. I rooted my lenovo A6000, flashed it with TWRP (latest version). To flash it with custom Rom i used to go to recovery mode with an app called flashify. the custom Rom was unstable so i wiped it and tried to flash it with other custom ROM. This Rom was corrupted and now i can't boot my phone neither i can go to recovery mode to flash back to stock rom. Please I need Help!!!!
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] sasukay:
[MENTION=8326375]Samridh Srivastava[/MENTION]

Man just pull out the battery.

Put it back in.

Press VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER KEY and release the POWER KEY once you see the boot logo.

Your phone will boot into TWRP.

Then you can flash any ROM you want.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Frost90:
Hi there,

As the title says, my Mi5 doesn't charge unless I turn off the phone. If I keep it turned off then it charges, If I turn it off, plug the charger and turn it on while charging then it's ok, the charging process continues. If I unplug the charger in the process then I have to turn it off again. Connecting to the PC via USB can also be done only by turning the phone off.

I tested it with 3 different cables and chargers which otherwise work on different phones.

I tested this on Xiaomi EU ROM and on Lineage OS as well.

I'm thinking this issue is software sided since I can charge it while it's turned off. Did anybody else encounter this issue? And ideas on how to solve this problem?

Thanks,

Frost

Hi,

i'm having the exact same problem.

the weird thing is that even in TWRP USB only works when it is connected during power up...
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] rhrokib:
Which rom are you using ?

Maybe dirty flash causes this. Or there are some problems with the kernel. Try flashing stock miui.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] tobi_:

I no longer have the Mi 5 and I don't remember if I fixed the problem or not, I think resetting to factory default MIUI might have solved the problem.

I had the same issue, and resolved it by deleting "Advanced Charging Constroller", a Magisk moduel.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
I've found a couple of companies that specialize in developing drivers for handheld devices, one of them is particulary interesting as it has done exactly what we're looking for before. I need someone who can talk to them and get them all the details and specs.

Here's the correspondence so far:

Me to them:

They answered:

I've answered:

I covered the contact info so that he doesn't get swarmed with descriptions. We need to keep this at a reasonable level. I will give his email and phone to however decides to handle this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redsrule2500:
Wow, cool man. I'm just afraid we don't have enough specs from HTC to get the project going... :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
That's where the money come in. I just need someone who can talk hardware to these guys and figure out the details.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] juiceppc:
Good legwork. I would think a company like this would want to charge at least 50-100k considering the impact. But I could be WAY off(hopefully). You may want to mention to them the high profile this issue has gotten and that they could potentially come out of all of this as hero's and get a lot of good publicity which may add a lot of value instead of cash...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
Yeah I was just thinking about that. We could use publicity.

So far however, they want to know the extent of the problem.. They wanna know how much work is needed (understandably). That's why I need someone who has whatever info we can possibly have about this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redsrule2500:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] FloatingFatMan:
Your best bet is Chainfire. Have you PM'd him?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
Well, they are looking for a job that's $20K+, large scale projects. I tried to persuade them with publicity and ease of the project... but they declined.

However, they recommended finding someone on scguild.com.

I'll try that today...

If anybody has any leads - let us know.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mrmega:
Perhaps we should consider taking this approach

Show this company figures that represent the number of units the Kaiser and its variations have shown.

Let them know we will raise money up front to get them started.

Let them know they can make money by charing fro a fix and give them the numbers to back it up.

For example:

If 1 million people (and I read here at xda that it is in fact more than that, but I DO NOT KNOW) have bought the Kaiser/Tilt/TyTN II etc etc etc and only 5% of the purchasers buy a fix at lets say $20 then they stand to make $250,000 in addition to whatever start up costs we can give them.

If we get this (or another) company to commit to doing this, and we get an upfront number they require to start the development, then we have a solid goal. We then start a campaign not only at xda, but worldwide, involve the media who has covered this story. The media entities who have covered this to date, have a great follow up story. This in turn gets the coverage needed to show them enough people will buy the fix after development.

For example, they might say "We will be willing to develop this for $XXXXX upfront if outlets exist where we can be assured there is DISTRIBUTION for the fix.

We then have a goal:

Start a world wide campaign to raise the upfront costs.

Secure distribution at every pocket pc software sales site we can contact.

They just might go for it.

That is a lot of money!

Money talks. Publicity seems like a good idea, but they want cash. Show them this is but one way of how to get it!!!!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thefunkygibbon:
but charging for the fix? it would presumably need to be built into a rom rather than installed seperately. how could they charge for it when we would be cooking roms with it in for free to download? and if we are doing that still then thats quite a bit out of order really. I wouldnt personally like to see us lot cooking roms.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
Good idea, I like it.

I'm not giving up - still searching and spamming developers who would be interested in this. If anybody else googles driver development companies - that'd make it easier and faster for us all.

I've got a good description of the problem (thanks Chainfire) which you can use to describe the problem:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
All we need is 1 ROM with proper drivers in it. Everything else is easy.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johanromijn:
however the key component that may be lacking is access to the hardware specifications, registry specs for the chip, and existing driver source from ATI & Qualcomm.

I'm not a pro, but isn't that just the problem??

That's just what's needed, and no one seems to have it. (Or is willing to provide)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] surur:
$20 000 is not that much. Thats just $20 from 1000 people.

Imagine selling the driver for $20. Way more than 1000 people would buy it. I dont think this amount of money needs to be an obstacle.

Surur
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tyeo098:
Er...

NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER TELL THEN HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE!!!!!

Geez people!

You ALWAYS ASK A PRICE QUOTE AND THEN HAGGLE!!!!

They say, so you got 4k... we want 10k+

BUT

if you ask a price range, they dont know how much we have, and then cant ask double for it. Understand?

Time to start with a new company...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
Hehe, well these guys' problem was not really the money, it was the volume as he himself said.

His words:

"Unfortunately, ALT will have to decline this scope.

You may have better luck looking to a individual contractor boards such as www.scguild.com."

But point taken. I've ran through that website and wrote to many potential graphics driver developers... we'll see what they say.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mrmega:
I only suggested my idea because we are talking about a 3rd party developing this for us, not HTC. I am not a developer so I don't know how the fix would be applied so please forgive my lack of understanding of how the fix needs to be applied.

If it is a driver, and the devs here would have to cook it into a rom or roms then maybe we are only paying for the driver.

All I can say is that we have a goal, and if HTC wont give give us what we need, and if none of the developers here can succeed then we we have to consider resorting to going to a 3rd party company to develop the solution.

A 3rd party company is only going to be interested in the $$$. I can only speak for myself, but if my choices are to have no drivers or to pay for them... I, like everyone else who pledged to the bounty thread will GLADLY pay to get this issue fixed.

Do I want to pay? NO! HTC should have given this to us but they did not so I don't know what else to suggest.
