Change Device name RUU GPE M8 - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For some reason my device is shown as HTC ONE_M8 on Bluetooth devices such as my car.
How do I change this? I've looked in settings but find no way to change it.

Settings, bluetooth, menu button, rename device

Try to search for "htc one x power saver settings" on google, and download it, and in that app untick the first option above the "minimal cpu" option. Sorry my device is not english, thats why i dont know the names of options if that doesnt work, look around in the default settings, what can set or affect your messages while in sleep mode...

Scheduling Exreme Power Saving Mode

Is there any way to schedule Extreme Power Saving Mode based on time and not just on battery level?
I am using custom ROM (Insert Coin).
You might be able to find a way using Tasker. I don't have Tasker though so I cannot verify for you

I have tasker. But it lacks this option.
Did you try the secure settings plug-in?

just download it from the play store, there is power saving mode, under htc modes in the secure settings, but dont think they have updated it to extreme yet, maybe add a request for it, could come in really handy.
i have managed to do it......on m7. should be the same on m8 too....

Weird Notification Appears

Does anyone know what app this could be from? I get this every time my phone boots. Every time it boots, it just flashes the little white triangle. It doesn't even last enough for me to read what the notification said. I had to use the Notification History feature to actually see what it read and it just says "Customization Setup". Clicking on it doesn't lead me to any app.
Anyone have an idea what this could be?
PS: Stock, rooted, unlocked bootloader

I'm assuming you've tried clicking on it? I assume it takes you to the HTC customization start that comes up when you first boot a phone out of the package.

I have tried clicking it, but it doesn't do anything. The notification doesn't last enough time for me to click on it and whenever I click on the item in the notifications history (pictured above), it takes me to the app info, but it only lasts for a split second. Nothing in the app info page populates and it's blank

Status Bar Symbols/Icons

Can anyone tell me what the symbol is left of the headphones one?
Better still, anyone got a full list of icons we're likely to see.
Thank you.

Yes. It's when BoomSound is active. Usually appears when sound from an app or music is playing. If you go to settings and scroll down you'll see BoomSound and the icon there too.

Hardware keys

Anyone knows why the HTC one m8 stock version the keys at the bottom dissappear in a lot of the apps like Internet and much more, I have use 3 roms alright currently on Insertcoin and they all have the keys permanently there taking more space of the screen is kind of annoying lol. Anyways anyone knows something about it.

I can't speak to the Internet app, as I use Chrome, and it doesn't do this. Are you talking about the immersive mode of fullscreen apps, like Google Play Books or YouTube? That's by design.
Although, I can't imagine the Internet app is supposed to do that... Sorry I can't offer much help. Maybe you could list some more apps that do it. What stock rom are you on? (Rogers, AT&T, etc)

I moved this to Q&A since it's a question. My attempt to answer your question:
I've noticed that some apps have built in menu functions and will turn off the keys. The custom ROMs probably have a toggle set that keeps the keys there not matter what. That's my guess without more info.
