HTC One M8 Flashing Rom - set_perm: some changes failed - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am trying to flash a new one onto my new HTC one 2014 Verizon. I grabbed the Viper and Revolution Roms, got S-Off, and TWRP installed however once TWRP seemed like I (or it) cleared the system partition some how without a stock backup (It said 0MB when checking the partitions).
Anyway, continued on my way to flashing...Well, heres some logs... ~.~

I have tired this multiple times, resetting to defaults or not. Deselection of features, ect...
Seems to be an issue with my system, not the rom... anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

I'm pretty sure I read this problem yesterday. Have you searched?
Make sure you have the correct recovery for your device.

I did search prior to posting, most of the 'solutions' was just to try try again from the beginning. Didn't have that option as at the time I did not have a backup.
But I was able to find one made form unofficial cwm before I switched to TWRP, and started all over.
Looks like it may be fine now.
Thanks!

I had this problem too when I was using M8 TWRP. Verizon variant is named M8_WLV. Using the M8_WLV TWRP I had no issues. XDA thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2717928 Hope that helps.

Similar issue on HTC One m8 GPE, no fix yet
I have similar issue when flashing ROM on my HTC One m8 GPE from play store.
I have unlocked bootloader & s-off and installed TWRP 2.7.0.2
I tried to install ViperOne and Revolution HD (choosing HTC One m8 International variant) many times, and every time the end of the ROM flashing process is symlink: some symlinks failed.
And when I reboot, I got a bootloop into recovery.
I also tried using different custom recovery like CWM and even verizon version of TWRP, but nothing worked.
I've searched back and forth, and don't see to find solutions here.

Your log file looked similar to mine and I tried everything to get these ROM's to install. I had been trying to install the ROM from the SD card and I had nothing else to try so figured I would copy to the internal SD and give it a shot and that fixed the issues and the ROM installed no problem. Hope this solves your install issue too. Thanks

I am having the same issue on my HTC one m8 verizon version. Trying to flash Android Revolution HD... I've tried having it on internal memory and external and I've made sure I have the right TWRP installed. Every time the install finishes it says set_perm: some changes failed and twrp crashes. Any other ideas?

In case it's helpful for someone, here's a log file. I also read in another thread that someone had success if they wiped /system before trying to install. I'll see if that helps soon.

EDIT:
Wiping /system before flashing the rom was a success! No hitches at all, and had it up and running. However, since it's a verizon device, apparently the firmware isn't out yet. Because of this I had no wifi and really long boot times. I'm gonna flash back to stock until the firmware is released with the next verizon software update. Happy flashing everyone!

The solution that worked for me
I was struggling with this issue while trying to install several ROMs. The reason I was getting this is because I was starting with a GPE phone and was trying to install ROMs that we based on HTC's Sense build (Viper, ARHD, etc...)
The reason is that the partition sizes are different between GPE and stock HTC. I believe that you will encounter the same issue if you installed the GPE RUU on your phone and are trying to revert.
I followed the instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733523 which required me to flash the firmware from what I had back to an HTC version (after this step I got the HTC logo upon restart instead of the google logo) Flashing this firmware must set the partition sizes to the appropriate values because after this I was able to install the Viper ROM without issue.

[Q] MMuzzy's Oct 5 ROM aborts with a symlink error

I have been using MMuzzy's ROMs on my Verizon Galaxy Nexux with no problems since June. I usually install with Rom Manager. The latest 10/5/12 version is failing with a symlink error.

*****************************************************************************************************************************
After running the 10.10.12 version of CM10, I put it to sleep and it had the black screen of death and it couldn't boot up and was stuck at the LG logo screen. I just started CWM Recovery and flashed the ROM again which erased the tweaks.
As for right now, I'm only using the Lightning Zap v1 tweak on my 10.10.12 CM10 Nightly and its so smooth and even think it's saving me quite a bit of battery.
TL;DR: If you're going to test out PIMP MY ROM, be warned that some tweaks may cause your phone to be stuck on boot loop.
Also got stuck on LG logo on boot. But one question. How many tweaks did u apply at once? It does say not to apply all at once. Maybe the number of tweaks applied at one time is the issue? I have the lightning zap as well as the v6 supercharger and my phone is the fastest I've ever had it. Running paranoidandroid 2.5x by utacka.
Sent from my LG-P930, ParanoidAndroid, Supercharged, using xda premium

[Q] Help, am I bricked?

I have an HTC One m8 which may be currently bricked. I'm really hoping someone can help me get this phone functional again.
I purchased the device unlocked from ebay with Sense UI. I wanted to use Google Play Edition, so I began the process of rooting, obtaining S-Off, and flash the GPE RUU. With the RUU, my sim card was no longer recognized. Not being able to return to stock (because there was not an RUU available), I opted to install the Viper One ROM which solved my sim card issue and the phone was fully functional (it just had sense ui on it, which I don't really care for).
Recently I decided to give GPE another go, and tried lots of things, one of which (stupid, I know) was S-On. Now I seem to be stuck with S-On and the device won't recognize my sim card. I am quite confident this sim card issue is not related to a phyiscal problem with the sim card, as I've had this issue before with other ROMs, and switching to Viper One always resolved it. Additionally, I have other devices and other sim cards at my disposal. I can still get to recovery, and Cyanogenmod nightlies. However I can't get back to S-Off. firewater now tells me "device patched by HTC, you are out of luck" and Sunshine tells me "Sunshine cannot be used on your current rom/Kernel combination. If you are running custom software, you will need to flash a stock sense-based rom, and try sunshine again".
I've tried installing many other roms but they are giving install errors (Viper One, Android Revolution, InsertCoin). I have tried installing these from TWRP, CWM, and Philz Touch. I've tried formatting partitions before installing them, and mounting or unmounting partitions.
Any help to get this device functional again would be appreciated.
Here is a recent log from trying to install ViperOne.

If you can get to recovery you are not bricked. You seem to have many problems and I can't help you. Just be patient and someone more experienced will.
TravisTX said:
I have an HTC One m8 which may be currently bricked. I'm really hoping someone can help me get this phone functional again.
I purchased the device unlocked from ebay with Sense UI. I wanted to use Google Play Edition, so I began the process of rooting, obtaining S-Off, and flash the GPE RUU. With the RUU, my sim card was no longer recognized. Not being able to return to stock (because there was not an RUU available), I opted to install the Viper One ROM which solved my sim card issue and the phone was fully functional (it just had sense ui on it, which I don't really care for).
Recently I decided to give GPE another go, and tried lots of things, one of which (stupid, I know) was S-On. Now I seem to be stuck with S-On and the device won't recognize my sim card. I am quite confident this sim card issue is not related to a phyiscal problem with the sim card, as I've had this issue before with other ROMs, and switching to Viper One always resolved it. Additionally, I have other devices and other sim cards at my disposal. I can still get to recovery, and Cyanogenmod nightlies. However I can't get back to S-Off. firewater now tells me "device patched by HTC, you are out of luck" and Sunshine tells me "Sunshine cannot be used on your current rom/Kernel combination. If you are running custom software, you will need to flash a stock sense-based rom, and try sunshine again".
I've tried installing many other roms but they are giving install errors (Viper One, Android Revolution, InsertCoin). I have tried installing these from TWRP, CWM, and Philz Touch. I've tried formatting partitions before installing them, and mounting or unmounting partitions.
Any help to get this device functional again would be appreciated.
Here is a recent log from trying to install ViperOne.

wow.. ok.. I'm sure you have already heard it but I'm going to say it again, once you go soff, never turn it back on! Now that we have gotten that out of the way… You have actually converted to gpe and turned security back on so you are stuck on gpe. You cannot flash full sense roms. Here is what I would try. You have 2 options here and one of them is sure to get you soff again but you may have to use sunshine this time around.
First, flash twrp again and clear cache "newest twrp"
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot erase cache
1. Flash sinless rom, and immediately flash stock gpe kernel. Reboot phone and try to use firewater then sunshine. Remember to flash stock kernel! You will see his flashable stock kernel in the op.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2709397
2. If that didn't work, flash sinless sense designed for gpe. It has an insecure stock kernel so firewater or sunshine may work also. If it doesn't, you will need bone stock sense flashable kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722578
Let me know the outcome, if one or the other doesn't work we have more options, but we need soff to get rid of your goole cid and get you back to sense.
Thanks so much, an0ther. Your first method allowed Sunshine to do it's thing, and I now have S-Off again!
So where to now? Ideally I would like to have GPE with a working sim. However the sim is still not recognized with Sinless rom, or the GPE RUU that I have. I also tried installing Viper One again, but I'm still getting the install errrors. As I said before, Viper One has been the only thing that gave me a working sim in the past. I was surprised that I'm still getting the install errors, I was expecting s-off to fix that.

What carrier are you with? You need a flashable radio to get gpe working with your carrier. Viper just happens to have your carrier in it. I would get back to sense, then you can just flash gpe roms and experiment with it. You can't flash viper yet because you are still on gpe partition and it is not big enough for sense roms. Here is the guide to get back to sense. Follow every step of the guide! Don't forget the changing of cid. After going back to sense, you can flash viper again. I would get back, then ask mrjaydee82 in the sinless forums about your radio. He is one of the nicest developers out there and really goes out of his way to help people. By far he has the best gpe rom imo. Glad we got your soff again. Let me know if you have any questions. Remember, no advantage to converting to gpe, just flash roms. Btw, converting back to sense wipes your phone, so backup anything if needed.

That makes a lot of sense about the partition sizes. I will go through this guide. And I'm on Straight Talk, which uses the AT&T network.

Let me know when you are back on viper with working sim. I can help you with radio/gpe if you can't get it figured out.

I'm there! Viper with working sim You're a hero, an0ther! I had to select AT&T in the viper install. I tried selecting Default, but that didn't work for me. Any suggestions from here, as far as getting to the GPE with a working radio?

Backup viper. Flash sinless now. It may work now that you are on different radio. If not, go into apn settings and set them for at&t.
That worked great. I had to choose a different Sinless rom than previously. The ART one got stuck on an endless loading animation for me. But the one labeled "TN Settings in ROM" worked, and my radio still works.
Is it possible for me to get from here to a stock GPE? If not, I can live with the custom rom. Thanks again, you have been a huge help.

[Q] Viper one rom 1.6.0 not installing on my htc one m8

I have tried to install viper one 1.6.0 and it almost completely installs but then fails and the last line before the "install failed" screen says "set_perm: some changes failed" and then says, on the next screen, "Error ViperOneM8 v1.6.0 install failed Installer Status: 7 Please save the log file and post it in the ViperOne thread."

repartition to increase partition system perhaps!
Elemental X was great but you want to update to Follow MSI's work, he's done some awesome things and has his own kernel which is better/updated to elemental
Grab the lineageos 17.1 for it and follow msi's kernel rocking and it's like a 7 year old tablet better than anything new, OTG with charging and completely stable. Then add Magisk with EdExtended so you can install GravityBox for other tweaks and use SmartPack to turn on knock to wake/sleep and fastcharge, etc.

and yes you have to do the partition resize for the new TWRP before you do any of this, just set aside and hour, read all the instructions and do it step by step and you are done
