HTC One m8 screen issues - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So basically i wanted a google play edition of my one m8 which i bought from koodo (a canadian carrier) running android 4.4.3. the first thing i did was to unlock the bootloader then i used the all in one tool kit for the m8 to flash twrp 2.7.0.2 then i rooted.
i then tryed the firewater method to get s-off with no luck. so i just figured id flash a custom gpe rom. so i picked up skydragon v3.0.1 running android 4.4.4. everything worked great except now i cant even slide in the navigation drawer from any app on the left side. its like theres a 5 pixels vertical line where the touch screen is not responsive. i cant even scroll on this vertical line of pixels. so i tryed installing Stock Google Play Edition (KTU84L.H4 ) running 4.4.3 and still i have the same weird problem.
i also checked with developers options to see the pointer location and found out the pointer just cant get past x position :30. which means its actually 30 pixels not 5.
here is a screenshot showing the vertical line:

any help would sure be appreciated
thanks!

That is odd, I've never seen this on a device. Have you tryed doing a full RUU rather than just flashing a different ROM?

my device is not s-off so i cant flash gpe RUU directly thats why i had to flash a custom gpe rom. I actaully cant find my carriers RUU to return back to stock
thx for your reply

Koodo is Telus owned. You should be able to use Telus RUUs.

thank you. yes i figured it out and found TELUS files here: http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads
its a zip file i am not sure how to proceed to be honest because im not sure this is actually an RUU. it seems to small, its only 441mb i should rename it to PGM something and put it on the root of my sdcard go to bootloader with my device relocked and thats it? can i do this if im s-on?
i was really hoping of getting my phone running gpe
thanks!

yea i just checked this file that i found on htc website is marked as crc its not actually the ruu.
what should i do?

I'm guessing you didn't make any backups? Could you get infromation from the bootloader such as model, CID, etc? Maybe then someone could help with which RUU to try if there is one availible.
You could look through Here and see if you can find a backup that matches your device.

This is my mistake totally, and I'm sorry for that.
I'm super active helping people here, and didn't even think. RUUs are only available for US versions.
I've looked for stock ROM backups for Telus, but I can't find one. (I have one, but it isn't totally stock, my apps and info are in there. Sorry)
Did you not make a backup before you flashed the GPE ROM. You should have. Just sayin. It says to do that on every ROM and mod thread here in step #1.

It's a zip file, so you should be able to flash that in recovery.
BUT, I'm not positive about that.
I would push it with ADB to be safe.

first of thank you so much for your help guys!
i managed to get gpe working including the left side of the screen. what i did was simply flash elementalX gpe kernel 1.08 and now everything is working perfecltly.
im running gpe 4.4.3 i cant get it to 4.4.4 because its a custom rom and not the actual gpe full conversion (since i cant get it to s-off). it kinda sucks that i cant upgrade for now but i guess itll have to do until a custom rom for android L is available
thanks again for your help guys

It's no biggie dude. The only difference between .3 and .4 is the eye camera stuff. to tell the truth, I haven't even tried any of that new camera stuff out at all yet.

yea its true but i still got it working . i installed skydragon then installed the elementalx kernel and now everything is perfect.
the one thing i prefer in skydragon is how i can clear all in recent apps.

Issue is that right now TWRP looks for the device to be called "find7a" due to it actually being a Find 7a - but Oppo is shipping it as "FIND7" which is certainly to cause all sorts of issues going forward when the real find 7 comes out.
As soon as I can test it out I will be pushing a TWRP ready version of the OTA - or you can remove the ASSERT lines in the updater-script

No need to remove the Assert lines as I just change one of the FIND7 entries to X9007 for my Find 7a phone and it installs no problems.
Hmm, I installed TWRP and SuperSU, fastbooted the stock recovery.img back and the update file fails to flash in stock recovery for me... I've verified MD5. Not sure what it could be but a TWRP flashable.zip would be very appreciated anybody?
Someone got the international rom to download ( not coloros 2 beta) , i want to flash my chinese x9007 with it?
Well, I made the update, but I noticed that the screen is turning on in my pocket. My phone has the pre-ordered cover So I guess they didn't fix it very well (10.) Except if there is a cover option to tick somewhere.

Did you make any significant changes to /system? I got the update to work with stock recovery but the only difference I had from stock was that the OS was rooted. I also uninstalled Xposed Framework before installing the update. I didn't continue using the updated ROM though because I could not get Titanium Backup restores to work. Funny, because it worked of the previous version of ColorOS 1.2. Right now I'm running the ColorOS 2.0 beta. It's less glitchy than 1.2. I still don't like ColorOS and can't wait for an alternative.

Do you still get LTE with 2.0 beta? Did you get LTE before going to 2.0b?

Yeah I got LTE before and am still receiving LTE. I haven't found any glitches of note except that some apps installed to the "phone" storage don't work properly which was also the case with 1.2. Bear in mind I've only used 2.0b for a little over a day. Give 2.0b a try. It can't be much worse. Note that you'll need to either edit the .zip file as mentioned previously or use stock recovery. I used stock recovery.

Yeah I was going to edit the zipfile for the OTA update but didn't have a clue what file I was supposed to change the wording of/in. I might try it Sunday. I'm going to need a working phone tomorrow and saturday, plus I won't have the time until saturday afternoon anyway.
Because of not having a Find 7a right now and not using ColorOS i would be not able to mirror OTA updates, so nice that someone does this. If someone need the FULL package you would find it also in the forum.

I have tried that and it fails and I've tried to flash twrp and the stock recovery in fastboot and they say they install but it remains the same when I go into it. I have the stock recovery now but anything I try to flash says update failed. I have been doing this stuff for a years but this has got me confused.

I had the same issue. I resolved it by downloading V1.2.1i and doing a Local update, after this I was able to download and install all the OTA's.

Making sure I'm doing this right
Hi all,
I just want to make sure I'm doing this right. I'm relatively new to rooting. Updating the firmware / radio is something I've never done before, so I'm just going to guess at the information I need to provide. Sorry if I leave anything out.
I have an m7vzw running SlimKat version 8.0. It's android 4.4.4 and the baseband version is 1.12.41.1112_2. My phone is S-OFF and I have TWRP installed. Can I just keep SlimKat installed, download the latest firmware / radio.zip in the second post, and follow the fastboot instructions there to update? Or do I need to revert to stock, then update, then return to custom?
Thanks so much for your help.

Yes, it has been discussed in that thread. When you flash firmware only, you do not need to change roms. I would personally do a "fastboot erase cache" command before rebooting into system after firmware flash

Awesome. I just wanted to get another opinion because I found some instructions elsewhere that said it was fine and some that said it would brick my phone, etc... Anyway, I really appreciate the help. I'll clear the cache too like you suggested.

With the release of the GPE edition is a firmware update for our M7 close or do we have to wait until Verizon releases our official Lollipop update?

We will have to wait for HTC to release the next version of sense.
I am having issues flashing the firmware. I flash the firmware as directed in the thread and flash 5.28.605.2 through Fastboot. Fastboot appears to work as the bar fills up to the last 1/10th of the progress bar. After that the instruction is to use Fastboot reboot bootloader From there I reboot the phone.
When I reboot back into the Bone Stock ROM after flashing the firmware it looks like the firmware remains as the 4.10.605.3 version in the "about" page of the phone. It does not update to 5.28.605.2
Can anyone help me?
Reboot to the bootloader / hboot screen and read the text there. OS-######.
Any way to disable one Mic? It seems one of mine is broken and it is not in warranty anymore. I'd just need for calls, elsewhere it's working. Thank you.
Hi guys,
I'm a new here and I have some questions about updating. Sorry for stupid questions. I've red many instructions and now in my mind mixed all of them. )
I could't find full instruction for updating (HTC One M7 from Verizon), step by step. Always all instructions begins from the middle, missing many things.
I have used HTC One M7 m7lvw from Verizon with Android 4.4.3
I'd like to update up Lolilop 5.02 (6.22.605.3_M7_WL_L50_SENSE60_MR_Debloated.zip) from Santod040.
But I confused about steps of updating. There are a lot different things, I'm just lost.
Steps to upgrade firmware and ROM (as I understood):
1) Nandroid. What is it? No information on first page. I guess this is saving your own info but not sure. If I don't have my own info can I skip this step?
2) Unlock bootloader with custom recovery. How? No information on first page. I guess TWRP 2.7.0.8 or newer is related to this section.
3) Wipe everything. For what? If I'm going to install new ROM why I need to wipe? And it doesn't info how to wipe.
4) Update firmware (downloaded: m7vzw_6.22.605.3_LP_Firmware_NoBoot-NoRecovery-combo.zip). The instruction is clear on page 1.
5) Update ROM (downloaded: 6.22.605.3_M7_WL_L50_SENSE60_MR_Debloated.zip). Flash the ROM and reboot. How? No info.
If I did mistakes (for sure I did) please correct me.
Thank you.

Are you s-off and rooted? If not, just install HTC sync and plug your phone until your PC. If the phone is sick it will update automagically
Hi Guys,
In your opinion what is the best ROM for M7WLV? I have HTC One from Verizon with version 4.4.3 and it has never updated. Now I'm trying to figure out what version of Android to choose for updating. I don't know how will work the phone with new updates. I mean may be it will work with low speed, lags, loose stability, and etc. Could you please to share with your experience to make me right choice. Thank you.

The FAQ thread has the answer for you. It also has other odd frequent questions asked. It having slow downs lag and instability is because of the apps you install or maybe power saver enabled? My wife's phone is stock and only had slow downs with apps that clogged her phone's memory up. I didn't know which did it and just factory reset the thing and the lag was gone.

Wild guess: you are on latest ARHD and you didn't update your firmware to 3.28.401.x, aren't you
Lol, we really need a sticky or something for the latest update. Or the ROM devs need to include a warning. (Not that im saying its any of their responsibility)

Not going to help mate, the people don't bother to read, that's the problem.
All the developers can put a warning in THIS BIG and the majority of the people will still scroll past it to just download the ROM in their rush to be "cool hackerz"
There is plenty enough proof of that already, developers clearly state in RED in their first post, THIS WILL NOT WORK WITH VERIZON and within the first 10 replies an idiot will come out and ask "Will this work with Verizon?"
Always read the last several pages on any rom you flash. You will always see any current issues or hot topics that way.

Ok first thing, goto the bootloader and check what the OS field says. If it is anything under 3.XX.XXX.X, then your need to update your firmware. Otherwise the problem is something else.

Won't it give the OS version for the ROM he has on which might be 3.x anyways?
I also think it's outdated firmware on his part, radio firmware needs to be updated in order for data, mobile, wifi, bluetooth etc to function properly. This guy can't be bothered so I don't know why we bother either.
ARHD - 10 to 1 he used 21.0
Venom - 10 to 1 it's 3.0
But we should guess these things because he doesn't answer anyone when asked. What version was he on before? Most likely a 2.x but we won't know that either because
He didn't take note of it before he flashed away
He doesn't want to make the effort
It's easier to just expect others to do everything for you.

I think when i flashed IC 5.0.0 without updating the firmware, my OS version still said 2.XX.XXX.X.Though It is as you say the radio firmwares need to be updated.
Changed to the new one once i flashed the update.
But yeah, you'r right, not many people willing to search the forums. The same issue has been discussed at least 20 times now. With 5 threads on the 2-3 pages of the Q&A section. I found my solution within maybe 2 mins and after reading less than 2 pages of the ROM i was updating. to.

Oh ok, I thought maybe it took that information from the build as well which would show the ROM's version(3.28.401.7) kinda like doing a getprop
I only flashed a custom ROM once and honestly, didn't even have a look at the OS in bootloader and even if I did happen to look at it the version probably wouldn't have shown what we're looking for now(I was updated to latest firmware so didn't have issues)

The bootloader pulls it probably from the hardware chip or something and then matches, if it doesn't, it shows up in RED. I could be wrong though.
Getprop pulls it from a .ro file on one of the partitions.
I had a massive heart attack when i first got the phone though. Couldn't unlock the bootloader as well since some partition detail was messed up. Talked to some Dev at HTC, and a day later a very convenient 'GPS' OTA shows up and all is good after that. But before i contacted HTC, i thought maybe flashing over some OTA is gonna sort it for me, the phone was on 2.22.1540.4 and i flashed over the 2.22.1540.3 OTA. Was stuck in RUU flash mode for a few hours and couldn't find anything on the forums, the only way to boot the phone was to use fastboot oem boot string. But it would get stuck in the RUU mode after every restart. That is when i noticed the differences on what the OS field says.
Once the correct OTA was flashed all was golden.
Im now waiting for the Dev edition or GPE to get Lollipop and im gonna convert to that SKU.

Yeah perhaps it does get it from boot.img or something similar, even then the new ROM flashed already contains those version numbers so I just figured it'll show the ROMs number and not the old OS version. Either way... It's cool. Like I said I never actually bothered to look at the OS Version there when I flashed Venom, had it on for 2 days and went back to stock(converted to Dev Edition).
GPE Will no doubt have it faster but I don't want to convert to GPE. Personally I'm not a major fan of "vanilla android". I actually like Sense. So hopefully it won't be too long after GPE gets the update that it'll roll out for Dev Edition.
That said, I'll probably do the exact opposite of what I just said and convert to GPE anyways just to see what Lollipop is like

:laugh: I was just thinking that... yet somehow I doubt it, next post will probably be to ask how he does that.
Oh well, we should probably stop high jacking his thread even though he started it and doesn't say anything in it himself.
I've never seen so many people not read the threads before blindly flashing things, seriously.

VoLTE Not Present on Dev Edition yet???

Guys,
I've got the Gunmetal Dev Edition M9 and I can't seem to get VoLTE to work on AT&T. Works fine on my iPhone 6 Plus, but when I pop the SIM into the M9, no VoLTE and my AT&T account still has it provisioned. Any help is appreciated guys!
Y2J
Interestting. Didn't Des' recent tweet confirm the DE M9 had VoLTE?
I think it does, I just think it has to be activated somehow, probably via a software update. Hopefully this isn't an issue for those of us with unlocked/developer editions running on AT&T.

Nope. Looks like you have the T-Mobile version. I have the unlocked version. That setting isn't there.

Its disabled in system/customize/acc/default.xml. Can edit it with root.
Well, in System/Customize/ACC/default.XML, my device has this line that stands out to me:
Code:
<item type="boolean" name="voLteEnabled">true</item>
Yours may possibly be set to false? If so, try changing it to "true" and see if that works.

Does that need root? Maybe someone can post a tutorial on how to accomplish that edit?

Yes, and it's simple, use root explorer, navigate to the file, press and hold on the file and select: open in text editor and find the line.
Probably easier to do it on a computer where you can Ctrl+f and find that specific line. If you post that file, I can do it for you.

Thanks. I'm good. I'm not rooted. Not sure if I want to do it just yet.
I've currently got the gunmetal dev edition as well, and in my default.xml it's actually set to "true" but the option does not appear in phone settings. The ROM on the phone right now is Viper 1.7 and I'm wondering if something in their ROM has that feature 'hidden'. I'm not sure what to check next. I'd be much more interested in getting VoLTE working than Wi-Fi Calling. I'm switching back and forth between T-Mo and AT&T sim cards at the moment.
Any news??
2.8 firmware and VoLTE
Has anyone gotten VoLTE to work on the latest 2.8 dev edition rom. It worked on the older firmware, but I wasn't able to use the same method on the new firmware. Was anyone else successful in enabling VoLTE? Using T-Mobile M9 on TMO converted to dev edition.

You sure about it working on 1.32 developer edition? I had problems receiving calls and the only rom it would work on was the 1.32 AT&T edition (and now the 2.6 AT&T edition). I tried the 1.32 dev ruu and volte still wouldn't work.
As far as I know, 2.8 Developer edition still doesn't support it. Not only do the dev roms not support it, but if it somehow gets turned on on your account, you won't receive calls.
Anyway, all that said, I think it will work on the 2.8 firmware, but it's just that the rom doesn't support it.
ICE (custom) defiitely supports it as I've been using that for about a week with no issues.
Either that, or flash the AT&T 2.6 rom (only currently available in the form of an RUU.exe, so you'll have to be s-off for that option to work.
Or, if you're rooted, I can send you the files from the AT&T rom that should get it working, but it's going to be dirty. You'll need to just copy the AT&T files to the same location in your rom (overwriting the existing files). I got it working by doing this after the AT&T update came out but before ICE added support for it. Obviously, the easiest would be to just flash ice 3.1.1 or later.

Thanks for responding. It worked fine on the 1.32 dev edition ROM on T-Mobile. I'm already S-Offed and cid/mid converted to full dev edition. When I enable it on the 2.8 rom, the option doesn't show in settings and when I receive calls, it switches to H instead of 4G/LTE. I'll just wait till next week for the official T-mobile rom I guess. I'd rather keep the Dev edition though for the faster updates and less bloat, but I'd like VoLTE back as well.

So you had the setting on the 1.32 dev edition? That's so weird. The settings for me were the exact same in both 1.32 and 2.8 dev editions.

All I did was enable <item type="boolean" name="voLteEnabled">true</item> (changed it to true) like it said earlier in the thread and it enabled the VoLTE setting on the 1.32 Dev edition ROM for me and calls remained on LTE.

Gotcha. I don't think I checked that setting when I was on the dev edition. They were all set to true on the custom rom I was using though and it didn't make a difference. I didn't even think to try it with the dev edition.

Yes, Viper will work but its complicated right now. Nougat with updated firmware breaks TWRP. Some of us are waiting for Captain Throwback to update TWRP for Nougat so that we can also flash other apps like V4A etc. Others can't wait and are using Magisk with phh superuser and so on. Pick your poison. I'm waiting on the Captain.
BTW, I use the safest and cleanest way to flash roms (IMHO) as follows:
1. I get the RUU.exe file directly from HTC, download to my computer and run the self-executing file. This gives me a pristine stock rom.
2. I then flash TWRP.
3. Finally, I flash the custom rom with TWRP.
That's it, simple and (relatively) safe. The custom rom already has SuperSU so no need to flash seperately unless I want a rooted stock rom. I don't do the extracting boot images, downgrading firmware to get TWRP to work, and all that schtick.

This Rom only works for US carrier versions. Europe and Asian handsets will display the above error code using this RUU
RUU wont work for you. Nougat for HTC WWE (World Wide English) as well as most other regions has not been released yet, just the US Unlocked.
The US version may work in general with your phone, but installing it any other way besides Custom ROM's will be a PITA.
