Rom install problem - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am trying to install the viperone m8 rom onto Sprint Htc One M8. I have rooted, TWRP and S-off. When I try to flash the rom, the touch screen stops working and I have to use the hardware keys, blindly hoping to hit the quit installation button. Every video I watch, the touch screen works perfectly. What am I doing wrong???
Running 4.4
TWRP 2.7.0.2
Thanks in advance!

Using Sprint... I believe it's an issue with aroma and the Sprint version of TWRP. You're not the only one...

Thanks for the reply. Anyway to work around the problem?

There was something about this on a different twrp port on the portal I think. Moto E maybe? Either way their fix was to just hit lock twrp then unlock it. Power button locks it as far as I know. If that don't work maybe a hardware key designed recovery will suit you better until this is fixed.

[Q] won't boot into recovery

I am using BakedSnack 1.8. It is a GREAT ROM and works 100%.
I wanted to a flash, and discovered I can't get there.
I don't believe it is a BakedSnack issue, I tried another ROM prior and add issues, maybe it left something behind.
When I try to boot into recover by any method RM, Quickboot I get the white HTC screen. With the Power/Volume, Bootloader options comes up, I pick recovery and get the white HTC screen. battery has to be removed and EVO is allowed to bootup normally. I have left HTC screen on for 15min. just to make sure.
need help ? I an not a programner/developer and new to ROMs and Andriod so please be specific.
I have the same problem. Did you ever find a solution to this problem?
I had a similar issue a few weeks ago, I was able to fix this by downloading and installing ROM Manager and flashing the alternate recovery option again, hope this helps.

Trackpad Not Working

Can anyone give me any advice.
After flashing Carbon ara theme V2.5.1 over a previous version and Leedroid 2.3d, I have noticed by OJ has stopped working. I have tried editing sms message using it but it is dead.
I then went into Clockwork recovery but is doesnt work there either. I managed to restore to a previous version using Rom Manager but the OJ is still dead. I am unsure if this is a hardware issue or I am not getting a full wipe using Rom manager.
Also as it doesnt work in recovery my options are limited as I cant select any options!
Help!
Update
My phone now has no rom and I cant get trackpad button to work to accept install zip in recovery. Is there another way of installing a rom without needing the trackpad button.
Send it in for repair. I am sure that you can use fastboot. Search the forums.
ah...can you click track pad buttom?
and if the buttom doesn't work, i recommend you send to manufacturer.
Trackpad is only functional inside custom recovery.
Use volume keys marked with + and -.
Thanks guys. Got the phone going again but still no scrolling. The click does work though.

[Q] Help

I'm not sure, if I'm right here. I use this site for the first time.
So, I have a little problem, and maybe you can help me.
Yeah, it's right: I've a HTC Wildfire S.
Now:
You know the phone well I think. My english isn't that good. At the top of the smartphone there is a button with which you can unlock the display/screen. But right there is my problem. This button doesn't work anymore. And HTC won't to that for free.
My question is: Could somebody of you - if it isn't difficult - make a ROM or something like this to change it? So that I can use something different for it? Like the buttons on the display or the loudspeaker buttons?
And there is another question: How I could lock the screen, if this button doesn't work?
I hope you can help me!!
In fact this is not only lock/unlock button, but the power on/off button. If ever your phone gets off, it's dead.
It is not possible to remap the hardware buttons. don't you have guanrantee?
Yes, I know that. But with changing the battery the phone could power on..
Do you mean that you cant do something like I want?
Yes. It is not possible. There is a way to wake up your phone with vol. buttons in a custom rom and locking can be done automatically in the security settings. but when your power button does not work you will not be able to flash a custom rom.
Thanks. That's not that what I hope. But better than no answer
To the guarantee question..normally yes..but they say it's my fault..I dropped it...but yes I dropped it but after 3 weeks the phone doesn't work..can tsomething like that be?
Try claiming on insurance for accidental damage.

Root using GUI on xda, install cwm recovery by alquez, install rom manager using insinks workaround then using rom manager install Henry's Hensemod that allows you to wake by volume
I'm on my phone. So no links yet

Did you try to put off the button and see if you can "fix" it manually?
I mean, if a small piece of plastic is broken, you should be able to stick it...
I don't know the exact condition, I'm just guessing and trying to help you.
since wfs has only 3 buttons, u broke the third of your phone.... and to make things worse, its power button ...
why dont you go to some phone service, and see if they could fix that button, it shouldnt be expencive, i did that on my htc tytn II....
First of all, I want to thank you all !

Thanks, benjamingwynn. I'm waiting 24/7.
Okay 5 days later I come back. I'm sorry for the lateness but I never normally go on XDA on my PC so getting links = problem. Here's step by step instructions:
1) IF YOUR NOT S-OFF - Use HTCDEV and unlock the bootloader.
2) IF YOU DONT HAVE CUSTOM RECOVERY/ARE NOT ROOTED - Click here, sign up, click on resources then click testing resources. Download the Auto-Installer GUI. Run the installer (Windows?) and then install cwm recovery and root.
3) Download Rom Manager from the Android market
4) Download Hensemod here, flash it using rom manager.
5) Enjoy Henry's wake by volume feature his amazing sense rom.
Any problems then DON'T BE AFRAID TO CONTACT ME! I will always reply even if it is a few days later.

[Q] No response from Clockwork Recovery

Hello,
Yesterday i tried rooting my phone for the first time, following the Cyaogenmod wiki for Desire Z. And everything worked without any problems, until
i arrive at the Clockwork Recovery mode step. I get no response when i try to select an option, all I get is a picture of the Clockwork logo, and nothing happens.
I have been googling for a solution, but seems like it is a quite rare(?) problem, and since im pretty new in this rooting business im not sure of what to try.
I have however sucessfully "installed" the Andromadus Mimicry ROM using the Rom Manager app.
But since i have to flash Gapps to be able to use market, im still stuck because of the need for Clockwork to work.
Does anybody have any idea of what i can try to do to fix this?
P.S. pardon the english, not my native tongue
Best Regards
Are you using the power button or the trackball to select in clockwork?
Also consider updating to a touch based recovery, 4ext is amazing but at least go fo clockwork touch
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
Wow...is this for real..?
I've been using the power button all this time, so i tried using the trackball like u suggested and it works!
Feel like such a moron...
Thanks for the help(and the fast reply)!
No problem, it happens to many so don't worry about it
I do still suggest an upgrade though, life will become much better, here's how

I just resolved this issue with help of mygamers. As advised by him I download stock 1,58 kernel from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=...20a0dd4400e309e7d0fd260a360ef37e06faf2f86678f. I flashed it and now my cell phone's touch screen is working perfectly. My cell phone is HTC Desire 816 a5_dug. Try it, it may work for you as well.

Plzzzzzzzzzz heeeeeeelppp.. I'm with the same trouble I think is not a hardware issue..
Same issue here, 816x Asia. After any Rom I flash I get this a few mins after boot. Only on stock it works perfectly. I tried different kernels with roms and used 2 kinds of recoveries. Most recent versions of twrp and cwm ... Any ideas?
same problem on build 401.

have same problem on all different roms (carbon, cyanomode, pacs, miui, etc....)
exactly.what is the problem?software?or hardware?
does anybody test different kernel? I used stock kernel that was downloaded it from Internet.left side of screen disabled.
This does seem to be a Kernel problem; more specifically, the kernel not being compatible with the Rom or your specific hardware variant.. the only thing I can think of is an RUU exactly for your variant will solve all the problems. your phone's warranty is void so you can take it to HTC care (like Yas mobile in IR) so they flash the right RUU for you if you can't find it here. after getting the RUU, you can safely update to 1.58 via OTA to fix any remaining problems becasue it're really stable and bug free
I have the same issue. No one seems to know what it is. i am on the 816x asia single sim. I have tried stock kernal, garak kernal. CM11 CM12 Miui, Carbom. same thing happens. After i get through set up (time frame 5 mins tops) the touch screen stops reacting correctly. IE having to touch things more than once, swiping becomes harder and if i go into the pointer location DEV tool i can see that holding my finger in one spot it sparatically bouces around. Only on the stock rom the touch screen works fine. i have recovery 6.0.5.1 CWM i have tried flashing on TWRP. I am guessing this could be a 816x firmware issue. maybe this touchscreen isnt the same driver as the other htc's or if the source is packing the galaxy ts driver this is reacting to this version of phone. A guess at best.
thanks my friend.I think that it is a software problem,too.(I hope!?)because htc hardware quality is good.
does anybody tell this issue to HTC?

From what I understand, This issue has nothing to do with hTC anymore. They have fixed the touch problem on their latest update (1.58). but if you install custom roms or backups not specifically made for your device, it is possible that you will have incompatible versions of HBoot, Kernel and Rom. this will lead to the situation that even after updating to 1.58 you'll still have the touch problem. now you can do several things to fix it; one is to try and find the suitable backup and after restoing that backup, update via OTA to fix the problem. another one is to install the RUU and then update via OTA. if you can't find the files or find the process diffiicult, you can take it to HTC care and explain that you need the RUU flashed and let them do it.
I've heard that they can even do it over the internet but I haven't tried personally
