whatsapp web issues

thanks for all the good work! i got lineage os running on my m8s yesterday and it works flawlessly, except for one issue.

Using whatsapp, if i want to scan the QR code for whatsapp web, the code isn't recognized by the app.

I tried several things found in other forums like clearing the cache of the app, changing the DPI setting, rebooting. Nothing worked so far.

Is anyone experiencing the same issue? Ist there maybe an issue with the camera drivers?

Thanks for any help
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
Well i have no idea where's the QR code scanning and identifying is handled. Getting me some log will help me.

Will double tap to wake works soon?
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
Probably it won't. Dotcase may work in the future
[One (M8s) General] rubliexpress:
Hello root-expert

thanks for your support now it's all ok. no reboot anymore.

Here what i did (for all other who have the same problem):

1) I took the RUU from here

xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/one-m8s-general/make-custom-recovery-htc-one-m8s-t3114245

2) replaced the Firmware and recovery to original and boot it up.

3) Then I updated the whole phone to Android 6 / Sense 7.

4) And at least I reprogrammed the recovery and the ROM from this thread

and now it's working :)

Again thanks for the support and your work! :good::good::good:

I would really like to help you with a log, but cant image which one would serve you. I'm not really into coding or something, so i don't have a good understanding which log you'll need or where to find it. any suggestions?
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
Search in google "how to capture a logcat". That should help you.

I'm noticing a bit of delay when answering incoming calls. Is it a know issue?
[One (M8s) General] jmcmoo92:
Hi rubliexpress and also root-expert,

I'm so happy I found this thread, tried out the ROM and loved it (thanks for the work so far!!).

I had the rebooting issue, then saw people talking about the Sense ver. and figured that had been my issue, so I saw your post rubliexpress and figured I'd try this, as it seems to have worked for you and this ROM is worth the work.

I flashed TWRP as my recovery to flash LOS (this one), but had issues as I say so right now I've got CM12 running smooth.

My question is how did you achieve flashing the original firmware? I've successfully installed and test-used the signed_recovery.img listed on the same site, but how would I go about getting the firmware installed, and which subsection did you grab your file from?

Just don't want to do the wrong thing and 'break' it :)

Sorry if I've missed anything out!

Many thanks in advance :)
[One (M8s) General] rubliexpress:
Hello jmcmoo92

you have to take the RUU, not the image

then roll back to origin state (its a Windows application, follow the instructions)

take care that you'll use the correct version (cid) and that your bootloader is relocked before beginning.

[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
I tried this 13.0 los yesterday or the day before after taking a nandroid of current state.

I wanted to get away from Gapps for a while so I ran it without that.

I was able to use bluetooth and get calls. Noticed it has a battery mode for power save and added it to the pull down quick settings. Flashlight also worked with no problem.

The main problems I encountered were in Titanium backup and the root apps (tried magisk and supersu and neither would work at all) Titanium backup was able to make a backup but restoring did not work. The developer option of running services showed my TB as trying to verify pro status (gapps necesssary for this).

Wiped system data and cache and dalvic and reinstalled the zip, root still couldn't be varied to supersu.

So now I'm back to the old MM from HTC.
[One (M8s) General] Kaldosh:
I noticed that sometimes you must activate developer options and activate the root access to get these to work. Maybe you could try that ?

Other than than installed the ROM 2 days ago, it works really great, . I used Void Zero CM12 version for a year and it was already flawless. This one is very well done, not heating or battery drain issue. Like someone else before my only issue as per now is the qr scan from WhatsApp web not working neither. It was working OK on CM12 so I wonder where the problem comes from.

Great job anyway, thanks for the amazing work
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
As the above guy said you need to enable root access from developer options once.]

You can get me more logs but i haven't got the chance to debug it. Uae pastebin or something similar
[One (M8s) General] Kaldosh:
Never done that before. I will look online and send you what I can get

Thanks

What's the TWRP error?
[One (M8s) General] Mr_White_214:
You need to flash arm64, Android 6.0, and I recommend nano package
[One (M8s) General] wall.e:
thx
[One (M8s) General] emremania:
Thx

Thank you very much my battery drain, restart and heating issues went away thx to you. just one bug as far as i see. that whatsapp qr problem. tried everything (including dpi settings) i cant find a solution.
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
Yeah other people have mention that too.

I'm taking a break while waiting for some logs from you guys. ;)
[One (M8s) General] Goneamin:
At last... I flash this rom... Plz, tell, what version of xposed i can install on m8s? May be i do something wrong when trying flash xposed-v87-sdk23-arm.zip and i need another version?
[One (M8s) General] Mr_White_214:
You need arm64
[One (M8s) General] Goneamin:
Thx...

Only zip version or before install 3.1.1. apk?
[One (M8s) General] Mr_White_214:
Only the zip version. The APK is the same for every device
[One (M8s) General] ChaquiLois:
Overall rating for this rom is 9/10. It works flawlessly than the stock rom and has multiple features to adjust. Nice rom! But still waiting for the fix of the mic on headphones :)

camera scan whatsapp.web and storecard

[MENTION=732043]voidzero[/MENTION]

i also try to scan the qr-code for wahtsapp. web - doesen´t work

the same by using the storecarg app, trying to scan a barcode - doesen´t work

if i try a codescanner app the scanning works, but only under using the app, not for whatsapp an storecard

hope you can fix this, and many thx for your work for this rom!
[One (M8s) General] voidzero:
It's not a ROM bug, so nothing I can do here I'm afraid... It must be a bug with the app or something, I don't know, I don't use Whatsapp and storecarg . But like I said, it has nothing to do with the ROM.
[One (M8s) General] vzsolt:
Hello voidzero, Im not a dev but I tought myself that HTC One A9 has similar SOC (SD 617 is a revised 615) as M8S and it has official Nougat rom. The donor for the boomsound things could be the M9. Is it possible to port it to our device? What do you think?
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
If you mean to port boomsound.

Well yeah, but be aware it won't work for speaker. I just haven't added yet because it needs some testing first to ensure and it is stable and i won't burn anyones ears
[One (M8s) General] vzsolt:
Yes I guess the One A9 has boomsond enabled for the headphones only and no drivers for speaker. But anyway we would have at least an official like HTC Sense based nougat rom. Maybe later the speaker topic could be solved. I have both M8S and M8. My M8 runs Lineage 14.1 with Resurrection remix oc enabled kernel and Sense 8 as daily driver with ARISE+Deuteronomy sound mod. I am absolutely satisfied with the result. The M8 is snapy like a current flagship phone with excellent battery life and good sound and it has headphone jack;) I could change the color temperatue so the sreen is so vivid now like the U11 screen. Everything works it should I only had to swith to Blackberry hub/google message app and Ms Outlook from HTC mms and mail app and hey it is much better. I would like to see the same with my also beloved M8S.
[One (M8s) General] Kaldosh:
Hi void zero.

If it is not a ROM issue I find it strange it was working on your version of CM12 and not this one. The only thing I did that was different on this install is installing a small gapps pack instead of the full pack, if so maybe some gapp is related to this qr function...? In anyway I can live without it ;)
[One (M8s) General] Cyr0wned1337:
hes back!!!!

hell void ur the ****!!! i thought u quitted with cm12 here, so glad ur back, u rule the m8s x)

ill try tomorrow the new rom!! still running with ur latest cm build x)

[One (M8s) General] wall.e:
Hi Kaldosh!

Did you try an other version of gapps?

I try an other camera app, but it dosen´t help...
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
Probably you need to install bigger gapps package becasue qr code scanning needs google services to identify the code
[One (M8s) General] wall.e:
will try...
[One (M8s) General] kruc Ire:
When it comes to Gapps biggest is much much smaller. Run the Aroma version (biggest) and deselect 90%. It will remove apps you don't want as an added service. Aroma installer saves your settings. I am a speaking in terms of a custom installation. Works from any system with TWRP available.

I tried installing aroma last week on the basic 6.0 MM using custom recovery. I can't recommend it as it gave a pretty limited version of the pixel launcher, but it worked. Still presented same problem of permission resets.
[One (M8s) General] wall.e:
Now i install full gapps under aroma,

then install whatsapp, try to read the qr-code - nothing happend!!!

I think, it must be a fix in the rom...

Edit: tried QR code reader and it works fine. Whatsapp thing.
[One (M8s) General] brunkonjaa:
I'm still noticing rapid battery drain. If I watch a downloaded movie, not streamed, it drains very quickly. Let's say 45 minutes long episode..... On stock I could watch 5 or 6 episodes before I reach 15% battery foing from 100%. Now it's 2 episodes.

So question: what kind of kernel am I running and if its not stock could stock kernel help? If so, which one ?

I'm fully greenyfied and busybox installed. Xposed is installed too. Quick drain happens and phone heats up accordingly. The quicker the drain - the more heat gets released. Since I'm using phone a lot, I notice a subtle difference in using stock while charging and let's say playing a demanding game or watching video and doing exactly the same with this ROM. So i wonder if different kernel would help?

I know platforms are not the same, but many ROMs on my old gs2 gs3 Samsung a3 and htcm7 have always responded nicely to a different kernel in relation to battery performance.

Bear in mind that I'm not giving out, I am very much grateful for your hard work, and am just trying to help by providing info and observed facts (i understand quite well the differences between warm - really warm and hot phone). Whenever you get the chance, please take a look into mentioned above.

Much love from cold Ireland!!!!!!!!!

While I was writing above post, phone heated up to me being barely able to hold it. Everything was shut down and hibernated prior to opening XDA app.
[One (M8s) General] root-expert:
Personally I don't have that much battery drain as you do.

I mean if I use my phone all the time it lasts for 4 hours, but my brightness is almost at zero :P

In the next build I'm tryimg to do some battery and perfomance improvements hope they work.

As far as heating issues, well my device also gets hot while charging and using, that's normal.

Maybe sometimes it gets too hot while using it and i have to let it to cool down for a while. I can cool down the phone for you, but the more you cool it the more the perfomance goes down.

And yeah we are using stock kernel, well not.completely stock. We are using tje config it was used in cm12, which stock with some performance additions.

Right now i'm trying to fix headphones issues. I fixed the mic in calls but there are more problems to fix. When the phone is ringing you can't hear the ringtone neither from headphones nor from speakers (working on fixing that). Also you can't record from headphones mic (probably i can't fix that easily)

Also I added amplifier HAL for headphones ;) and I'm working for double tap to wake.

I believe I'll release a new rom next week

Those who are wondering about los14.1, well I can't get it boot and as always the error is weird af.

Hi!

Thank you for your hard work. Sorry for my broken English.

Can someone showe me, step by step, how to do it? Im newbie. I have stock rom. I dont have install twrp even on PC and unlock bootloader yet . Do i have to unlock bootloader? I cant register to htcdev.com and I dont know why.

Thanks for help.
[One (M8s) General] brunkonjaa:
Sometimes when you register with htcdev you receive email directly to your scam or trash folder or whatever it's called. Try using different name and/or email.....

As for guides, you have a ton of them here, step by step, just search the m8s general section. Youtube helps too.

Hello Guys, I followed all the first page, I unlocked my bootloader, flashed recovery and installed the new roms + gapps.

Unfortunately and don't know why, in the bootloader the OS is empty. And when I restart the phone after the logo HTC ( and the sentence who explain that this is a custom rom) there is nothing the phone become off without any reason. Sometimes I see the logo lineage and sometimes no ....

Maybe it's software ... But I dont know what I can do from now.

thanks for your help in advance.

reboot

Hello, first thank you both for your huge work!

I'm also facing random reboot after few minutes of utilization. I figured out that if I plug my m8s running lineage and check out the logs using android monitor, it doesn't face the issue.

Good thing is it fix the reboot issue. Bad thing is, as soon as you unplug mobile/stop android studio it reboots. Meaning I can't have a trace to see why the pone is restarting all the time.

Hopefully it can help you to investigate this quite common issue.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocookie:
I'm genuinely impressed with its performance despite of its age (phone was given to me by my sis) but knowing Android's customizability I would like to get out of the stock ROM and install a custom ROM for the first time. I saw a review of lineageOS on note 2 and I immediately fell in love with it. The thing is, I have no idea how to do it. But even the thought of doing this excites me, so please hear me out. I saw a tutorial on YouTube on how to install which seems easy. What I'm afraid of is the prerequisites, as I have mentioned earlier, this phone is all stock. So, can anyone give me a step-by-step guide on how to do it?

EDIT

I was just being a *****. I gave it a shot and rooted the device using CF autoroot and installed twrp, disregarded the warnings about the bootloader being locked, did a full wipe, installed the ROM, installed gapps, wiped dalvik cache, crossed my fingers and toes, and voilà! I now have a custom ROM installed. JUST DO IT!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gurkanwal Chauhan:
First of all, you have to root your device.

For root- https://www.kingoapp.com/root-tutorials/how-to-root-galaxy-note2.htm

Please try installing kingoroot apk first. Your device may be rooted without computer by using this app.

1. Check "unknown sources" from Security in device settings. (Settings>security>unknown sources)

2. Then download the kingoroot apk from given link.

3. Install kingo root and open it

4. Click on the "one click root" button.

5. Wait for the results.

6. Try a few more times with different rooting methods (if failed )

7. If that too doesnt work for you, please download the windows version of the app which has higher success rate.

Btw do you have a windows pc?

[HTC One X+] aureljared:
Note regarding TWRP builds:

Building TWRP 3.x from source spits out a ~9MB image, which is unusable because the HOX+ recovery partition is only 8MB.

The workaround I used was to compile TWRP with a kernel that supports xz/lzma ramdisks, then recompress the ramdisk via "xz --format=lzma -9". This yields a final image with a size of around 7MB, which we can actually flash.

I have no idea how to make the TWRP source tree compress the ramdisk using xz automatically, so if anyone has any idea on how to do that besides making a build script, that would be great. :good:

Battery level needs a fix in the ram disk. I think there’s a fix in one of my trees for it.

F2FS needs kernel support in rom too if I remember correctly.

Will this work for evitare?

---------- Post added at 02:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 AM ----------

Where can I find roms for the evitare? I had an evita(XL) some years back, and I know that some similar evita roms were flash able. What about this evitare?
[HTC One X+] aureljared:
Not sure, the kernel in this recovery was built for enrc2b.

But if I remember correctly, the only difference between the two is that evitare has LTE while enrc2b only has HSPA+, so maybe you can try it out?

The threads in this forum usually have the tag 'enrc2b' or 'evitareul' in the title. Maybe you can try searching for them?

[HTC One X+] aureljared:
evitare_ul is One X+ (in the US and Canada).

It comes with a Nvidia Tegra 3 chipset and an LTE modem.

enrc2b / endeavor_c2 is One X+ (outside the US and Canada).

It comes with a Nvidia Tegra 3 chipset too, but does not have an LTE modem.

evita is One XL (in the US and Canada) or One X (outside the US and Canada).

It comes with a Qualcomm MSM8960 Snapdragon S4 Plus chipset. It has an LTE modem.

As you can see, they have different internals. This recovery is for enrc2b / endeavor_c2.

You should flash ROMs that match your device's internals.
