Hi folks,
i hope there aren't so much threads around similar to this.
But as you see in the title I'm looking for a custom ROM for HTC M9.
Background is that i consider buying one but i'd like to make sure first that it is possible to flash a stable and supporting custom rom like CM13 or LeeDroid to it.
But as far as i figured out by scrolling throug this forum there isn't a rom available which supports all functions of this device, is that correct?
CM13 is not supporting the camera(s) and a few other things, but no support for the camers is actually a show stopper anyway.
I was not able to find out what LeeDroid is not supporting at the moment, but i'm quite sure it has also a few bugs...
Can someone suggest a stable rom for a daily usage, or can i forget it and do i need to consider using it with the "stock" rom and its bloatware?
My desire would be, having a CM13 or a customized ROM which is alike to it as a compromise. The most i'd like to have a cleaned rom without such performance killers like Sense...
Anyone?
Im using candysix that is based of Aosp with several good features. Id recommend both candysix and leedroid.

Thanks for your reply. I flashed LeeDroid on my One i got yesterday. First impression is nice.
Do you have some experience with it?
Any advice how to setup "Auto Unlock" with a 6 digit Pin ? =)
With a 4 Digit pin it unlocks right if the correct pin is entered, but this wont work with a 6 digit pin. I tried with Xposed Modules "Sense toolkit" and "Gravity Box" but no luck so far. =)

I might be wrong but this is what i think
The 1st link you posted is managed by the CM developers, the second link is Tripndroid who based his/her/their rom on the base of the CM developers rom. Basically adding and removing tweaks that this person/team likes and dislikes
If your considering rooting and installing a custom rom. I can recommend the 1st link been using their roms for more than a month now and it's very good rom. If there is anything about sense that you like and will miss try the Sense roms. (Viper and ARHD) are the two major ones that i looked into, before settling on CM10.

hi there just adding to the above post. the first rom is developed with an ultimate goal of becoming the official CM rom, and is ready for everyday use soo far from my experience. The second one is Tripndroid, and he adds his own tweaks as far as i know. however i havent used his ROM yet to know for sure.

Hi there, I am running the ROM from the first post and it's brilliant. I have tried the second one and found it had quite a few bugs and was not nearly as finished as the first ROM. I am busy downloading alpha 5 now to try and am sure it will be just as great as the rest of his updates have been.
Thought I would give my info based on user experience of both ROMs. Also depends on what you looking for; quick ROM or fancy looking, awesome features or a stripped out version.
Well thanks guys, i think i'll go for the TeamNDVRu when i receive my phone, but still waiting september to see if it's worth it or not.
And what about the known issues ?
- Occasional soft-reboots with GPS On + Facebook ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=2184 )
- WiFi direct doesnt work
- MHL output is rotated incorrectly to portrait in horizontal mode (but workaround added since alpha 8 for hw decoded videos/youtube. Use bsplayer from playstore, almost all videos play with it in correct rotation in hwoverlay)
- No FM radio app in ROM. But Spirit FM works from market (it's commercial!)
- USB storage copies slower than normal
- Some paid apps loses settings/acconts due to this android jellybean problem: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=34880 Solution is to backup with Titanium Backup and restore to internal memory, not to sd

Some of them will only occur if you have special need for something. (e.g. wifi direct)
Some of them don't occur for everyone. (facebook+gps reboot)
None of them are really a huge concern if you are willing to try jelly bean. And for most of them there is a workaround, fix given in the text you quoted. I have a jelly bean rom installed and I have to say that I don't really feel any negative impact by those known bugs/issues. But do note, that most of these ROMs are not as stable as the 4.0.4 ROMs like ViperX.
I have been using tbaldens ROM and it has been quite good. The ones by trip I have found to be a bit unstable.

What ROM are you using and why?
This is not a thread about what rom you tink is best, but it's about what rom you use and why!
This is just to get alittle info and to help out us new people to choose our first rom.
Happy writing ladies and gents!
Looking forward to read all your comments and reasons.
I am using AOKP by Task650 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2748251
I use it because it is breathtakingly smooth, has great customizability, and nice AOSP features like lockscreen notifications and lockscreen ring built right in. I have also tried and like ViperOne and CM11, but AOKP is my DD.

On my main unit I'm debranded to got an stock rooted with s-off and having sense6toolbox installed via xposed framework.
Nevertheless on my secondary device I'm on ViperOne (M8) 2.0.1 and lovin' it. It's fast, stable and highly customizable, but still has Sense 6 and all my loved HTC apps installed. Just a great ROM for users who like the original Sense 6 feeling but want to have a maximum of customization option. Another very nice ROM I tried is ARHD 10.2.
Hi there, I'm new to these threads and recently put cyanogenmod 12.1 on my nexus 7. I was surprised how clean and well optimized it ran so I was going to put cyanogenmod 13 on my HTC One M9.
So I was curious if there was anyone on these forums that had the time to answer some beginner questions.
1: I have carrier locked HTC One M9 from Australia, can I unlock and install Cyanogenmod 13?
2: How can I backup my original Rom?
3: Any recommendations?
Thank you in advance
Go into recovery and twrp has a backup button. Save it to your micro SD card
1. You will need to get S-OFF to be able to flash MM 3.xxx.xxx firmware to be able to run CM 13.
2. You need to go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3066720
3. Read and read

Since I had a similar question to what's been posted here. I'm going to ask in this thread. I've been looking for non-sense(no pun intended) roms, for my phone and found that CM looks like something I'd like. However, all I've found are nightly builds. Is it a good idea to wait until there are some stable builds or are those nightly builds good enough? Been looking for non-sense roms all over, but it seems all the top ones are derived from sense, I'm just interested in getting as far away from stock as I possibly can.
Candy rom and CM are the only builds I've used on M9....
Candy is CM based and runs far better than stock CM nightly builds...
CM will get there...but for now I'm avoiding it...
Also...candy rom will run on 2.x firmware....and CM13 will not....g

Newbie here, just did my first root + got a custom rom (CM13) [if you're thinking of getting it now, please don't. I'm doing you a favor.]
However, releasing what nightly's are, im now wondering how stable is this 'Candy rom' you speak of?

Candysix is a fine rom...
The team has done an excellent job.
It's worth a go....g

Small question, if you will. Does CandySix bring all the features that CM does? By this I mean, root, the UI customizations such as menu colors, themes, and UI tweaks. I'm using ViperOne right now, and although I like its UI themes and colors a lot, I don't like Sense that much. I know this isn't all that related to the thread but I don't want to open up a new thread just to ask about this stuff.

Candy is far more feature rich than CM vanilla roms...
Give it a try...I think you'll like it...g
I will try it then, thanks for the help.

Can't really recommend any Nougat Roms at this time. Too many issues (at least on my device like the camera not working). Probably the top 2 Sense-based roms are Ledroid and Viper. You could try either of those. I can however highly recommend Viper10 V3.5.0. This is a flawless Marshmallow rom. I'm still on it and will be until the Nougat kinks are ironed out. Good luck. Happy flashing.

I don't recommand a Nougat Rom too, i've been taking a "quick" look at it and they are'nt really optimized.
On my HTC 10 (unlocked version) I'm actually on Ledroid's Rom.
Quick launch, smooth interface, very usefull multi task button and so beautiful notification's section.
BUT
My battery is like ice in summer, like i'm 4H SOT and was 5/6+H on marshmallow stock.
Can't connect on snapchat (I don't really care but you care maybe)
I have issues on the automatic luminosity which get super agressive and is buged (don't set up the luminosity while i'm in a dark room, broking my eyes...)
Sorry for my bad english, i'm French ! ^^'
Hope I helped you !
Thanks guys, ill have a play with ledroid and viper. Resurrection remix seems to have few problems aswell
@aceniz Venomrom or leedroid.. If it's aosp then I'd say RR.. But if for stability id stick with sense based.. Strip it of sense and htc apps then use the pixel or vanilla type launchers, this is what I do and it absolutely flies.
Thanks, Ive gone with Leedroid, everything seems to work on it so far. seems to be the most stable. just need to work out a few tweaks with it to get it working ok the way i want and itll be better than RR
I bought this phone and it's really great, I have nothing to complain about it....it's really too perfect
but....I was used to flash all the day, try stuff ecc....things are getting boring, my addiction is healing
I'm a stock guy because I feel stock rom+kernel performance more reliable and consistent, but maybe your experience could inspire me, and maybe others to try different things
Show your stuff!!
Thank you
For AOSP, best setup worked for me was ResurrectionRemix + mini gapps + tabp0le kernel coming with the rom, however in the last builds i got some performance issues are reverted back to sense based ROM. many people say Dirty Unicorns + Nebula kernel is a killer setup. but i didn't really like it because it didn't have pixel launcher and i don't know how to setup it tbh.
the best sense based ROM setup for me is Stock ROM + ElementalX + PnP mod by ivicask on balanced. i am using LeeDroid now + Stock kernel and sometimes i experience some lag not sure why but after a reboot it works perfectly. will try it with custom kernel.
trying ROMs on HTC 10 is good because most if not all of them work perfectly with phone and all of the issues you may face can be solved. just try many roms and see what's perfect for you.
here a sheet i made with all custom roms available for the 10
here
ICE and Leedroid to me feel more stable than stock ROMs on other phones. The 10 is extremely stable
Viper10
It's the most popular HTC ROM on XDA for a reason.
You can stay as close to stock as you want, tons of customization options if you want that instead, timely updates, and a strong community on the thread to help with any issues you may have.

Leedroid and ICE do not use stock kernel, they're including cleanSlate kernel with their builds (I think for mod reasons), so performance/stability issues should not be ROM faults IMO....Thank you anyway, I was thinking about trying ICE, it was my daily driver on M8, I'm just not sure about the kernel

yes.....viper10.....you know, I always had this feeling.....the more mods you include, more the rom will be potentially unstable....and viper has damn tons of mods
The curious thing about viper ROM is that everytime I try it, it's damn smooth. don't know why. but again, it doesn't feel stable....I will try it anyway
thank you anyone
I use lineage os, I like frequent updates, I like the fact that's it's a WIP. It is good and gets better by the week. I like that is very up to date.

the lag i get is in notification panel and i am pretty sure it's not a kernel thing because other than that the ROM is so smooth with 5hours SOT battery. i never tried ICE maybe i'll give it a try this week.
I use lineage, I only switched off stock because they were not releasing a security patch update every month, nor upgrading to the most recent version of android. I like keeping everything updated and its frustrating that you have to wait for them to do it rather than just getting it from google.
I used to be a flashing guy, the htc 10 maked me stop flashing by now, I gonna wait for U11 ports, I think stock rom is stable and wonderful.

Totally agree. Thankfully HTC 10 has massive support in terms of AOSP ROMS. I recommend you to try crDroid. It's so clean and simple with perfect performance and battery life
Resurrection remix with the custom kernel that comes with the ROM. I've tried mostly everything as my DD but I always come back to AOSP. I've tried lineage but it started to stutter.
Edit- I'm back on lineage and it's amazing.
