I recently switched from the Viper One rom to the nightly builds of Cyanogenmod12 for my m8. Everything seems to be fine in CM12 and I like the stock android a lot better than sense, but one of the features that I used the most on sense 6 is missing. I was wondering if there was a way to use the swipe up to unlock on CM12, by this I mean the feature that sends you directly into the OS without going to the lock screen. Any help is appreciated.

The swipe to unlock is built into the Sense framework. You won't get it on AOSP ROMs until/unless Google makes it a part of stock Android

Hope someone can point me in the right direction here, I have a rooted Telus HTC Desire HD. I have tried several ROM's and so far none quite fit the bill. I am looking for a ROM that is basically a rooted version of the stock rom. I only rooted my phone so I could use a clockwork recovery and be able to backup my device. Also Sense is needed as I use google calendar along with pure calendar to display my appointments, contact birthdays and facebook contact birthdays. Facebook for sense seems to be the only way to easily do this. I have RCmixHD which is supposed to be a port of Telus stock rom & I like it except that it does not have Canadian or US English options. If anyone has some ideas on where to look next I sure would like to know.
Hi jmc7895
Since you like sense.. you can try Android Revolution HD and LeeDrOid. Well you can try the Gingerbread version of them, you also have the option to try out the Froyo version.
Cheers. =)
I have to say I am no Android freak, I just started to use Custom Roms for 3 weeks.
But I could honestly recommend Android Revolution HD 5.1.x to everybody.
stable, fast, almost a rooted stock Rom, no trash inside, no problems until you do not install any "Sense 3.0 Addons"
only follow the guides and you will be happy with that rom.
I am currently using Revolution HD.
First custom rom i've tried, I love it. Looks exactly like stock Gingerbread, only waaay faster and with better battery life. Plus there's 24/7 support on the rom's thread
Just follow the tutorials, you'll be fine !
The only downside I could think of is that the rom is not directly available in ROM Manager. Not a big problem anyway =)
Hello every one,
I see many of us own the sprint device and use it on freedompop network and so like to compile a list of custom rom's that can be used on this device.
So if you are using custom rom's on freedompop device, plesae share it. Thank you
Any stock based ROM should work fine. I have an S3 on Freedompop using The People's ROM...that developer is a real hardass though

I have never tried a CM ROM. But stock based 5.x should work fine. Backup with a nandroid and try a CM ROM. The Freedompop provisioning should not be touched.
I have a freedompop branded galaxy s3 and have tried a few roms from here. They've all worked: spirit, carbon rom, and slimkat. Wound up staying on spirit for now. Tried to flash CM11 but it didn't seem to work with or like the recovery I had at the time and I didn't feel like switching it out just to try CM (think it was a status 7 error or something). Haven't tried any 5.x roms but the main thing you'll want to reinstall after flashing is the freedompop messaging app. That's the main thing you need to make calls, and it should be compatible with lollipop.
Hello im new to this, so before i go messing my phone up, i was wondering what the best and most stable custom ROMS are for the
m8ql_ul, preferably with no bloatware. Thanks in advanced
Mine: Cyanogenmod 12.1.
You shouldn't use PandoraROM, it is a bit old and should be removed. I haven't used it but I'm skeptical, I think it's just a modified Sense ROM. Worst thing: it still has the stagefright bug. So I don't recommend to use it.
There simply are no other ROMs for this device and no S-Off either.
And im guessing that trying to use roms for the M8 are a NONO
Correct. It's a totally different device. But it looks the same, so HTC just decided to call it M8s. Silly huh.
Well that sucks, i cant even remove the bloatware from the device as it is. what about stock roms minus the bloatware?
Just use Cyanogenmod. It's what you want. Sure, you can take out the bloat from Sense, but that will prevent future updates from working and will cause you much additional grey hairs. With Cyanogenmod 12.1 I already did that work (and grew the grey hairs!).
I'm having problems getting a custom rom to work on my HTC One M8.
The custom roms that have tried so far are Resurrection Remix, Android Revolution HD, Viper One M8, CyanogenMod and they all get stuck at the Starting Apps screen.
I tried an older Viper One M8 rom, (ViperOneM8 4.3.0 – Last stable M8 based Sense 6 rom) and it installed fine, went past starting apps screen after a second.
What am I missing?
I also installed Resurrection Remix on a Note 2 yesterday and it was fine no issues at all.
Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Just tried AICP Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow ROM for HTC One M8 - same thing, stuck on Starting Apps screen.....

Is your firmware up to date? And the new Android versions use ART, so initial bootup times are longer than they were when Android used Dalvik.
I am having this same issue. Is this anyway to fix this?

Neither you or the OP have even made it clear what the issue (if there is one) is, if you look at the response above yours. Plus, stock device, or modded? If custom ROM, which one(s)? In other words, please refrain from just posting "I have the same problem" as this is never enough info for us to work with, and properly help you.
Is it actually "stuck" meaning not progressing at all, and for how long?
The ART cache takes a pretty long time to build (and that is what is happening when it says "Starting Apps"). Could be 10 minutes or so, depending on the number of system apps in the ROM.
I'm also stuck on Starting apps..Preparing to start apps. I've ported AOKP ROM to my Cherry Mobile Touch XL 2.

Overnight Stuck of Starting Apps...Preparing to start..
Hi all,
I have an M9 (CID HTC_102), which is unlocked. I'm running the latest unmodified stock ROM (4.28.401.3) and haven't touched the bootloader. Since I can't upgrade my phone anytime soon, and this phone probably isn't going to get any more updates, I'm looking for a ROM that's as close to stock Android, or better, Pixel (I use Nova Launcher at the moment, so a launcher isn't really a problem).
One of the ROMs I saw is Lineage. Is this the best one that fits the criteria? As I understand, it will also install some apps, but I prefer to use the Google ones (especially an unmodified version of the dialler for caller ID, and the camera app, which I can't use at the moment because my cpu is 810). Will I be able to uninstall them?
Also, what would be the best way to root?
Thanks in advance!
