Have you validated your GPS gaining a "fix" via a GPS testing app?

The ROM is able to obtain an "estimate location" without using GPS so most apps still work but satnav like Waze won't.

EDIT:

Are you also in the UK?
[One (M8) Android Development] BimmerLad:
This is what I'm seeing (GPS Test) on latest build (fully wipe and flash with cache wiped) in the UK
[One (M8) Android Development] SpanishFreeSoftLover:
The HTC app for mobile, when I search on google play it indicates that it is not possible to install that app for my version, did you install it through apk?

By the way, did you install LineageOS's AddonSU during installation? I do, and I don't know if that can be counterproductive or not, I would like to have more opinions about it.

Yesterday I cleaned all the partitions except those of the sd, reinstalled everything from the sd, and today I have fewer random reboots, but I still have them, maybe they will have decreased 50% +/-. If with your advice and help I manage to reduce them another 50%, I will be satisfied.

Let's see what you think, LineageOS's AddonSU, yes or no?

HTC Mail, do I install it by apk?

My M8 is European.
[One (M8) Android Development] SpanishFreeSoftLover:
I think the GPS works perfectly for me, or at least I have it all activated, yes, until I could configure it to go well, it took almost 5 or 10 minutes to play things, I entered chimpanzee mode when I did not get it to go I started and gave permission without much control to everything that seemed reasonable to me based on the failures I was seeing.

To test I have entered google maps from the lineage browser and it finds me. I can activate both the location with battery saving and the thin one with GPS plus tracking of Wi-Fi networks.

I just tried before answering you to walk down the street only with the GPS option (without the option of also using Wi-Fi networks) with the mobile in my hand and the google maps page open and the option to locate me, and the blue dot is He moved with me.

The truth is that it is not something simple, but not complicated, and if you tell me how to do it again I would have to look at it. I came to the solution by chance when configuring the OpenWeatherMap widget, which by the way is right with the location where I am. To activate it I had to hit between a amalgam of permissions, in my case at least it was a matter of permissions, until it was right with everyone (I had to give permissions to applications and varied options), it gave the options of location and He wouldn't let me activate them, or only partially.

I don't know if your case will be the same as mine, and maybe you've already looked at that, but I say it in case it was your case.

I am also Europe, specifically in Barcelona.

A greeting.

Give it a try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2&hl=de

I'm from northern Germany. So far the satellites (the green bars and spots) are recognized.
[One (M8) Android Development] SpanishFreeSoftLover:
I have stopped having random reboots on my phone, it has been solved only since I have not updated or anything, since I did the installation again deleting everything, they were reduced a lot, and now I have been testing the phone for more than a day by doing everything and I haven't had a reboot anymore.

Thank you very much community.
[One (M8) Android Development] Verlog5454:
There is definitely something odd about GPS. After a reboot seemingly randomly GPS stops working, it's only able to acquire 1-2 satellites, most of the time at 0 - the secondary number is 16-20 and sometimes changes, I don't know if that's keepalive from the satellites or just something hardcoded. After some wrangling with turning location on and off you may sometimes get it to work at which point it will work until the next reboot. Or you won't get it to work at all. All seems random.

Could it be some sensitivity setting malfunctioning? Would make sense if it's a bit cloudy and the GPS is working at a tiny fraction of its power or something.

Edit: I just left GPSTest (from f-droid) running for 15 minutes and seconds after it crawled to 3 sats it jumped to 9. And now no matter how many times I repeat it reacquires all sats quickly, some switch got turned. For science I disabled location and re-enabled it, acquisition is still fast. Whatever got toggled it's either system or hardware.
[One (M8) Android Development] BimmerLad:
Many thanks for your confirmation that it's not just my device or installation.

Could you place a comment on the below issue to validate it is a ROM bug not a hardware issue?

It seems there is something missing in the AGPS or GPS.Config which is causing a slow "cold fix" or no fix in my case!

Hey y'all. I've been running on the august 15th build for a while now, and I can't seem to update it. I've tried to install several newer updates through TWRP (downloaded OTA, wiped cache/dalvik) but LineageOS won't boot, just throws me back to TWRP. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong or how I could troubleshoot this issue?

infrared doesn't work

Nice ROM! thank you so much for sharing it.

Testing on the remote app on M8 Single card using the lastest OS 16.0

but every time when i touch on the remote app to sent out the IR, the screen turn black and went to the home screen.
[One (M8) Android Development] BimmerLad:
I've tried the IR on the latest build using "IR Remote" app and it works fine...
[One (M8) Android Development] ccyu1008:
Thank you so much for the reply!

I install the ROM	lineage-16.0-20190906-nightly-m8-signed.zip yesterday, and install the ARM GAPPS android 9.0 nano for my M8 single card, other function working fine except the IR.

So i try the other wthe way by The_Walking_Playground .

"......So it turns out I was able to fix my ROM installation issue and my IR problem by going back to the last Lineage 15.1 ROM, and then installing the latest 16.0 without wiping anything. I was even able to install the 9.0 AROMA GApps without issue (after resizing system). IR is now working properly."

So I install the ROM lineage-15.1-20180708-UNOFFICIAL-m8 with full wipe and install the lineage os 16 Rom and GAPPS instantlly without rebooting first, not sure if this cause the IR issue.

---------- Post added at 11:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

With OS 15.1 IR crash cause reboot, by the way if i use the IR Remote App it seems working but the TV wont respond. So i try to use XiaoMi's remote app, still causing crash too.

Or maybe i should do the 4 wipe before installing the OS 16.0 from the original HTC ROM?

Instructional Video on Installing a ROM/Paid Help for Installing ROM via Discord/Skyp

Not sure if this is going to make any sense but I was almost in the last stages of installing this ROM when I accidentally deleted all data (resulting in no OS to be booted on my HTC One M8) and now it is stuck at the branding screen. I know I might still be able to boot it and install using an external memory card or OTG but can anyone confirm what's the way out of here? I need to revive the phone for secondary use.

Kudos to the XDA Community for giving so much to the world. We owe you.

GoodBye.

Zip verificaton

Trying to install Lineage, but the zip verification keeps failing in TWRP. Any advice very welcome...sorry if there's a thread already, I couldn't find anything. Thanks...
[One (M8) Android Development] maciclazar:
Easiest solution is to disable zip verification in twrp then flash rom again
[One (M8) Android Development] rosanna31:
Thanks, ok, but isn't zip verification meant to mean something?!
[One (M8) Android Development] The_Walking_Playground:
Hi,

Zip verification only works for zips signed with AOSP test-keys. So it essentially has to be disabled for a zip signed any other way (or unsigned zips). I don't think the feature is designed to do what you think it does.

[One (M8) Android Development] john_matrix:
Hello,

I have installed this ROM on my M8 but when I want to do an OTA update, the phone reboots to TWRP (official 3.3.1.0) and do nothing.

Is there a way to correct this?

Thanks in advance!
[One (M8) Android Development] vldesco:
Already answered question, you have to flash manually, search in previous posts for further info
[One (M8) Android Development] adhamaik:
when nightly versions will stop and being good ??
[One (M8) Android Development] john_matrix:
I was talking from a "technical" point of view and not a manual one...

What's need to be modified in the ROM to be able for TWRP to get and flash the OTA update?
[One (M8) Android Development] BimmerLad:
The ROM is flawless. It's rock solid stable and amazingly fast. The nightlies are small bug fixes and tweaks to further clean up and improve code but most changes are "under the hood" and you will never notice them.

Don't wait for nightlies to finish their a VERY good thing and it's truly amazing that such skilled devs have commited to helping out writing amazing code for old phones.

CHANGE LOG HERE:

[One (M8) Android Development] bgcngm:
Nightlies will never stop. There nothing more but nightlies.
[One (M8) Android Development] vldesco:
AFAIK it depends on a working LineageOS Recovery for M8 (not related with the ROM itself), So maybe we never will have automatic OTA install :(
[One (M8) Android Development] ashyx:
Then how is it other lineage/aosp based Roms like AICP ota's work just fine with twrp?
[One (M8) Android Development] Verlog5454:
There appear to be some really serious Bluetooth bugs that manifest occasionally.

Sometimes Android is sure that it's still connected to the Bluetooth device but nothing is playing on the device and some players even refuse to play while volume up and down still displays Bluetooth volume. Then when you turn the Bluetooth device off it still thinks it's connected. Toggling Bluetooth on and off on the phone fixes it but only temporarily, issue recurs within minutes. This seems to only happen when the phone is charging (wall charger) - might be just because I pair to a particular device (laptop) at those times. Edit: The issue may begin when charging but it certainly carries on when charging is removed.

Also when toggling Bluetooth some behavior is odd, after toggling it off makes all devices disappear when usually they do not, toggling it back on does not bring devices but it connects to something - when it does there are serious stuttering issues on and off lasting seconds. Getting back to Home and then back to the Bluetooth slide own menu the devices are displayed again. Toggling Airplane mode on and off seems to fix stuttering - perhaps also fixes everything else like a fresh pair or restart, don't know yet.

Sometimes the connection to a Bluetooth earbud just drops off randomly (I hear the sound notifying connection dropped from the Bluetooth device) and Android still thinks it's connected. Might be related to the first bug but I usually get a "long term" (several days) fix by forgetting and pairing he earbud again. Phone is not charging at this time.

None of these problems with the exactly same devices happened when using the last available official LOS14.

Edit: Toggling Airplane mode off and back on provides a fix to these issues until it happens again the next day or several days.

I have noticed that Google Pay is not working on this ROM I assume it's a result of the build being cooked on top of development HTC code therefore it's not an "official ROM"? Is there anyway round this or just a price you pay for having an AMAZING ROM?
[One (M8) Android Development] ashyx:
It'll never work unless HCE is somehow fixed.
[One (M8) Android Development] molenovoy:
Why is the 13 and 14 builds are empty from fixes

My understanding is the builds are "nightly" so if there are no fixes the same build is posted again? You then use the change log to pick the builds you want/need.

Open to correction though!

Thank you for exellent ROM!

Everything works, but I have one minor problem with LOS 16 and AICP 14 as well: File transfer with usb cable wont work.

When I choose file transfer over USB in drop down menu, PC recognizes disconnect, but does not reconnect. With any other ROMs (Sense and LOS14) it works.

Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: Got it working!

In win10 device manager on My HTC clicked update driver, heard disconnect sound, then note "The driver is already installed" and voila! Probably bug of Windows 10

Hey, there is camera stuttering bug that i already reported on GitLab, is anyone also suffering this? Here's the explanation:

At first when you open camera, it stutters, it's lagging, if you switch to video recording mode, there are no stutters, no lag, camera works perfectly, if you switch back to picture mode, again, it has no lags and it works just like video recording mode, I can't include logcat here as it's larger than 512kb, but you can check it on GitLab if you want: https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/issues/1186

I changed from "no data transfer" to "file transfer" in USB default action in developer options and now no matter what I do or change computer cannot recognize the phone.

adb: error: failed to get feature set: no devices/emulators found

It won't even show up in notifications anymore where previous it would at least say charging.

Reboot not effective. Flashed most recent Sept 15 nightly so it may be the culprit and not the action above.

Phone still draws power and when connecting or disconnecting the screen comes alive as per some enabled setting or other.

[One (M8) Android Development] nimik:
M9 battery you say... Thanks for the tip ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] BimmerLad:
Yes indeed, you can use the M9 battery to boost you mAh to around 2800 I believe and still stick with an OEM battery.

The dimensions are the same as is the connector and after running one for over a year it's working well for me :good:

If you live in the UK I would suggest using ReplaceBase as it's always been great for me.

Of course there is a certain amount of "risk" when using a part not specifically made for your device and if like me you accept that risk as minimal or even non existent then it might be worth the "upgrade" although at your own peril and what not :p
[One (M8) Android Development] ashyx:
I will second ReplaceBase as that's where I get most of my parts. Battery has been good from there, no problems.

I was donated my m8 after the previous owner got upgraded at the end of their contract. It could barely get 4 hours of use before running out of charge. I replaced it now going on 2 years and it's still an all dayer on a single charge. I think the previous owner used to leave it in charging overnight and wrecked the battery. It's one of the worst things you can do to the lifespan of a battery.
[One (M8) Android Development] andresv8:
Thanks to all devs. It's so great to see official Pie on M8 is coming out!

Is there any way to install 16.0 using OTA? Unfortunately it says "Update blocked". Let me know please why it's blocked. I guess it's due to be currently on 14.1..

I used to install the latest build automatically..
[One (M8) Android Development] BimmerLad:
Always do a full wipe and flash when changing OS version. A 14 to 16 upgrade needs a wipe and not an upgrade :cool:

I am on my 3rd (including the original that started to swell after 2 years), the 1st replacement went bad, only 1 year and then it discharge very quickly.
