Porting 4.4 - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Will it be possible to port the GPE version of 4.4 when it is released? Or will we just need an AOSP version?

I am also wondering this. Once we have 4.2.2 verizon kernel source, will we be able to get ports of the newer GPE software?

Give our devs time. They'll hook us up. Always do. Gotta be a little patient.
And to answer your question I imagine we'll end up with both. We have both now. I don't see why 4.4 would be any different. Our Devs are in beast mode 25/8 366 so don't be surprised if we end up with awesome sauce (both).

See the issue is exactly what you just stated. Kernel source. HTC is notorious for being slow with US variant kernels. They have kernel source T-Mo, AT&T and Jank (Sprint) for android 4.1.2 but not 4.3. I emailed HTCDev directly asking about when they are releasing source and that HTC has had a history of violating GPL and that got a response asking for our ROM version, radio version, etc. etc. and was "escalated" up the chain. We'll see if I hear anything. My guess is I won't.

No.
I figured that much. My thought behind the question was that maybe the kernels for the htc one were like the universal kernels for the S3.

There could be but to the best of my knowledge NEVER flash another carriers kernel..
I'd like to see these universal kernels..
you aren't talking about ROMs that can be flashed on any carrier? that just has all the files for all the carriers, so it chooses your device by the coding in your phone and will select the correct one and flash the kernel for your ROM.
Imoseyon Had kernels that were universal. Im not sure if they had installers that detected which device you had or if the kernels were literally universal.
But how hard would it be to make a kernel from someones sprint source code? Did HTC ever release source code for VZW?

This seems like an appropriate thread to post this:
Do the ROM's and Kernels from the general HTC One thread work for our Verizon version? Some of the threads read they work on all carriers except Sprint...
Anyone know when HTC will release the source code for the verizon or do you know if this version would work? I wouldn't mind putting something together...but I have only had this device a few days and I only starting to get a Sense of what's going on...

I agree. I know that in some way a kernel would be able to be compiled because we have working CM, Vanir roms. Those dont run on sense kernels. So some how some way a kernel can be compiled.

Yes a kernel can and has been compiled using the International source code.
That doesn't mean it is ideal or going to work well on our stock rom or at all.
Once my device arrives on Thursday I plan to look into it.
But I would prefer that Verizon and HTC just get on the ball and drop our source so we can be sure to build proper kernels.
I just read something over at HTC elevate where someone mentioned we can use the Kernel Source code from the International LTE One to build a kernel for VZW.

Correct, that's the one I meant. :good:
I updated my post above accordingly.
That was what was used for our CM10.2 and likely anything else we have that's AOSP based so far.
Would still like for HTC/Vzw to get with it and just release ours as well, as there could be slight variations in a few regards.
I prefer AOSP builds. With that being said id be looking for a kernel for AOSP builds. I just feel more comfortable using a lean kernel, stripped of unnecessary junk and optimized for speed and battery life. I feel custom ones give me that over stock.

[Q] most stable rom sense/non-sense?

Hey Everyone! please tell me which is the most stable sense and non sense rom??? Which rom and kernel combination is the best?? I have already checked out the similar threads but most of them are outdated so please help me out thanks
I can't speak for Sense ROMs but I've been running Chillybean's CM10 ROMs for the past few months -- only a few bugs with sound and reboots up until the most recent 20130929 build (CM10.2 / JB 4.3).

All of chillybeans's 4.3 roms that is cm10.2 beanstalk 4.3 don't have working gsm if you want gsm I would recommend Leoposas's Zoe Rom its cm10.1 and runs really great
I saw this thread on how to enable gsm on Verizon mobiles running up to 4.4 but I tired to use it on chillys PacRom 4.3....
I wonder if am doing it all right or does the rom have no gsm support at all
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394689
well it really all depends if you like sense or if you like aosp or aokp. if you just want a good rom for daily basis id suggest a sense rom. if you're into customization then more than likely you're gonna want to go with aosp or aokp. but with you using gsm those roms are kinda iffy seeing as a lot of them for gsm use are still in the works. if you do want an aosp rom tho id suggest cm7 i do believe for most builds they do have gsm working or you can try the global roms made for gsm or that Zoe rom if you're wanting to be on jellybean. ive got cdma so my options arent as limited. hope this helps in some way.
You should all try Chillybean's fly-CM10.2 its really fast and smooth and has working gsm its 4.3
Yeah its a pretty cool rom. Still having a bit of problems in the cm source tho like with screenshots and torch but its definitely worth check out.
---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 PM ----------
And the thing with the gsm patch even tho it says it will enable gsm on verizon cdma phones doesnt mean it will work on all devices and patches dont always fix the problem if its deeper upstream related. Hope this helps.
Downloaded and flashed chillys cm10.2 minus the screenshot problem, absence of nav bar, buggy status bar when using xposed tinted status bar....its an awesome smooth ROM, a nic bream from the constant reboots of the 4.2 ROMs.
Thanks for the info
I've tried all of Chilly's ROMs, and the most stable for me is 10.2 (4.2.2) Slim Bean. All of the others eventually slow down and require frequent reboots. At this point, I don't know if it's something in the rom, or the B-Team kernel, but I think I've settled into SlimBean with the "stock" Chilly-evervolv kernel. It's the fastest/snappiest, and hopefully stays that way.
The only thing I'm missing is the CM Voice+ app.
I'm not sure which post I found it in, but this stock rom minus most Verizon crud is called
6.01.605.05_VZW__OTA-stripped-odex.zip
It's stabled but not "new".

I might have to give that a shot, what's the difference between "fly" and his other CM10.2 ROM?

The fly one is modded fly is the name of the mod whereas the other is pure stock. Look up fly mod in the Android development section for details of the mod

What do you mean by the "stock" chilly-evervolv kernel? I've been searching for a bit and can't find it. I've had the same issue with the slowdowns and I'd like to give this one more shot before reverting back to the sense roms.

"Stock" in this case means the kernel that comes with Chilly's 10.2 slim bean, as opposed to a kernel like B-team that you have to download and flash separately.

should i update to new firmware

I have been running the final version CleanROM ACE since last year and it has been great for the most part. I do get random shutdowns and reboot nowadays once in awhile and not sure what is causing it. With all the new roms, stock 4.42, AOSP variants, is it worth the time to update? What I am missing out here?
ART worth the upgrade?
Stability?
Speed?
any new features. Miracast sucked on the Cleanrom from my experience.
How's Driver support for AOSP. I need the digitizer working.
I don't want to upgrade just for upgrade's sake. Anyone can share their experience?
Thanks:highfive:

I would the modem is better and kitkat is way smoother unless you are running an asop rom but art isn't that good yet I can't really tell if I have it on or not but try this rom im running it as we speak and I think you'll like it hes trying an updated version but just do an backup and try it

That rom I posted a link it has agni kernel built in and I can give you my settings for it to if you wanna try it out
just installed and it seems to be running fine. One question tho? what's the best way to manage app permission on 4.4.2?
one reason I stayed in clearrom is that I could install an App to stop unauthorized access to contact, sms and etc.

Heads up about 5.0 Aosp Roms

Flashing an AOSP ROM might mess up your recovery
Check out the link from the Nexus 5 forums
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2930512
Warning about Lollipop AOSP ROMs. - broken recovery
It doesn't make your phone unusable. You can easily reflash a recovery thru ADB. So idk how this is a big deal?
Nobody said it was a big deal, just a heads up.
Not flashing 5.0 AOSP ROMs on the G3 can be consider sinful. !
but thanks for the heads up tho !
You guys speak as if there are already AOSP 5.0 ROMS for the g3.. Did I miss something?
Pretty sure this is nothing new with 5.0. Other devices have employed similar methods for awhile now.
Never mind, I see now. The concern is this functionality included in the AOSP base code. Got it.

This...are there AOSP roms for the TMobile LG G3 that I'm not aware of. I'd be running it right now if its stable and you know, in existence.
There are some people who have AOSP versions, as all as cm12 versions for the d851 running, however they aren't daily drivers. To my knowledge though, nothing has been posted to download and test out.

Does that mean... If im switching from say LiquidSmooth on my D851 lg g3 to a lollipop ROM do i need to follow the regular process of..... Going into twrp, doing full wipe, flashing lollipop zip, (flash supersu???), and reboot.
Or does something else need to be done when switching?
I've tried 3 different lollipop roms and even restored backups without any issues. Just make sure to delete old backups if you update Twrp for any reason.

Stock 6.0 AOSP Rom

Is there a completely stock 6.0 AOSP (no CyanogenMod based) ROM for the m8?
Not that I know of, there is a thread for an AOSP 5.1.1 ROM a while back that isn't being updated as of now. It's certainly possible to build it if you know what you're doing.

Wut?
How can AOSP be stock on an HTC device that isn't a Nexus? Even on Nexus it isn't exactly stock.
Try a GPE based ROM. That is stock Android.
---------- Post added at 06:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 PM ----------
I should elaborate.
AOSP is the Android Open Source Project.
There are no AOSP ROMs that are "stock". It is open source for development. AOSP is for custom ROMs.
@xunholyx There was an m8 Play edition.
