I am unlocked, rooted, s-off and running 4.3 on my AT&T m8. I recently flashed Viper One, which was my first ROM on this phone, and I no longer have a boot animation, for a while I thought I was stuck on the boot screen but it turns out that I have no boot animation. When I restart my phone all I get is the red text screen, lasts for maybe 3-4 minutes and then the screen turns off when the phone has booted. I asked in the Venom IRC and no one seemed to know what the problem was, so I just thought I would ask here. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it, thanks!

Question I really read a lot.

As the ROM thread of Viper One states it is designed for FW 2.22.401.x Did you flash the newest FW? If yes you should have a boot animation.

Yes I am on 2.22.401.4, that seemed to be what the people in the IRC seemed to think as well. I have considered going to 2.22.1540.3 and trying again but haven't had time to do so yet.

Please don't posts multiple threads asking the same question. I answered your question and attempted to help you here: http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/help/boot-animation-restarting-installing-t2849818

Did you manually flash firmware with fastboot? If not, you are not on the new 2.22 firmware. Also check your hboot, if on the new firmware, it will be 3.18.

Otherwise, 2.22.1540 firmware is recommended for US users, so flash it.
