So only kernels designed for the GPE will work with it then, correct?

Are GPE kernels device-neutral? For example, most ROMs these days will work on any variant of a given device. So most M8 ROMs, for example, will work on the vzw M8 & the att M8, etc. The installer script just detects what device it is and installs only a compatible version with it.

My gut tells me kernels can't work this way, as they're hardware specific. You did say something about taking things from Sprint kernels. Could you at least elaborate on that? I understood about taking the boot.img out of the Sprint zip, and I can write an updater script to install that. I just don't know what you were talking about after that.

In this ROM, we can get away with using other device's kernels thanks to the dt.img (device tree) that Captain_Throwback built for the Sprint variant. Essentially, it uses the cyanogenmod Device Tree...which they built for all variants. And, as the hardware for all variants of the M8 is essentially the same, other variants' kernels work.

I believe that some bits of hardware, like the camera sensors, reside at different addresses for different variants, which is why we had the camera lag issue early on, and why the full device tree fixed it.

So, this is why Sprint/international GPE kernels will just work for us...we have the device tree it requires to figure out where our stuff is.

And if you do find other kernels we can use...let me know, and I'll work on adding them to the ROM. :D

Ok, so just to confirm (because I always want to be 100% certain before flashing anything), International & Sprint GPE kernels will work with our device. Will I have to change the updater.script? Or will it just work normally?

Depends on their installer. The one for elementalX uses a prepacked boot.img. That one has to be extracted (android image kitchen) and the zimage taken from it and added to the boot image for our ROM. If the installer uses an anykernel-style installer (where it extracts the current boot image, switches the kernel, and repacks and readds), then yes, you can just modify the updater-script.

About kernels...

Messing around with a kernel can be a complicated thing. In Linux if you don't use modules (bits of driver code that get dynamically loaded/unloaded) you've got to compile the kernel with support for your drivers. I honestly don't know if Android support modules or not, I've never built an Android kernel because. I have built many Linux kernels before though. A lot of things that "should" have worked and didn't. A lot of things that booted up and ran but didn't work as intended.

What exactly are you trying to get into your kernel, like what do you want to accomplish?

Keep in mind that the CM side for the m8 has significant problems still. No dual camera support, the speaker phone doesn't work, and they've got issues with the cpu_boost function too. Some of this might be kernel related, some might not - I don't know.

Thanks, but most of this has no bearing on what he's asking.

Yes, we use modules for our kernels. Because the underlying hardware is the same and the only real differences are what radio software is running and some block/dev assignments, I have seen that if it works for GPE on the M8, it will work for GPE on the m8vzw.

Same logic as why we can use the Harman-Kardon mod with Sense ROMS...it's really just a different audio firmware and the framework bits to make it go.

Yes, CM for M8 is still a very needy WIP, but we're really not using anything from it other than the device tree, which just says "The M8 has these bits of hardware at these addresses". I mean...it's more complex than that, but that's it in a nutshell.


So, to slightly revise my previous statement - to try a kernel from another variant of m8 - you simply need that kernel (which is the zimage in your boot.img) and the modules for it, which always reside at system/lib/modules and are always flashed with the kernel.

Hot reboot causes device to loop for me. Not really an issue, but figured you'd want to know.
Using Xposed and Gravity box. No sound mods. L install.

+1 here too. Also, are apps supposed to be optimized at every start up on ART? Mine are, which can be a real bummer as it takes a very long time + burns through battery.

Power + Vol. up for about 10-15 seconds does a hard reboot (similar to battery pull). From there, you can Power + Vol. down to get into the bootloader.

Really strange....Last night it wouldnt let me do any of these things (I already knew how to do all of this) I couldnt get in at all. Just after I typed my question above I was able to get in and I attempted to reflash this Rom but it failed. I went back to Viper one at it installed fine. Not sure whats going on. I was running this Rom glitch free for a few days and now all of this.....weird

This thing runs really well! I'm struggling to see any real differences between this and AOSP 4.4.3 though.

Its a GPE ROM... Its straight AOSP vanilla as vanilla gets.... And the only thing is 4.4.4 is just I think a security fix. Not sure, minor update. But GPE is pretty much vanilla AOSP. The most vanilla ROM you can get lol. But with gravity box, skydragon kernel, Wheatley governor and L themes. Damn, this thing runs amazing. Loving it.

Last time I checked, there were still some major usability issues with AOSP. Have all those been corrected?

The encryption bug is what moved me off AOSP but WiFi not sticking, camera and kernel issues were big issues for me as well.

Well, on liquid (which I usually run) the encryption bug is gone. The WiFi worked perfect for me. Camera worked good on the 7/3 build, but broke for a lot of people including me on the 7/4 build. But the main reason for the kernel issues is the way it gets baked in with the ROM. In the main time, you could always flash another kernel.

I'm not seeing Wheatley governor on ElementalX (whether its just not available or its not showing for me) is there any way for me to flash Sky Dragon kernel by itself? (Cause it's a gsm kernel no? Besides what DH did to make it work for his ROM / our phone )

    Team "Brown Eye Winking" Presents:
    Digitalhigh GPE - The ORIGINAL GPE for HTC M8
    (often imitated, never duplicated!)

    PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU'RE HERE TO POST A QUESTION OR ISSUE REGARDING THE ROM, PLEASE READ THE OP AND SECOND POST ENTIRELY.



    If this is your first time visiting, please be sure to read this and post #2 THOROUGHLY, as I have tried to address many common issues and questions in them. If you ask a question that is addressed here, you will most certainly get a facepalm meme aimed directly at you. :D



    Hi! I'm Digitalhigh, and welcome.


    What is this ROM?

    This ROM is a mostly vanilla port of the International 5.1 Google Play Edition ROM for the HTC M8 with minimal modification and tweaks. GPE Roms are similar to AOSP in that they are lacking in the custom "skin" that OEM's like HTC and Samsung's respective Sense and Touchwiz use. However, unlike pure source-built ROMS, GPE contains certain features found in OEM ROM's. Specifically, this GPE supports boomsound, motion launch gestures, and the Duo FX camera.

    What makes this ROM somewhat unique is that the installation process has been meticulously designed to be incredibly modular and allow for as much or as little customization as desired. Aside from the changes needed to make it work on Sprint and Verizon and updates to Google applications and frameworks, it is possible to install a nearly 100% stock GPE ROM. On the other hand, it's entirely possible to tailor nearly every element of the ROM's applications and performance variables.

    In short, it's like an erector set for flashaholics who want some Sense in their Cyanogenmod...or maybe the other way round.


    Stock Features:

    Android Version: 5.1 release-keys (GPE LMY47O.H9)
    Stagefright patched!

    System/google apps ALWAYS up to date
    Integrated OTA support
    Latest busybox and SuperSU binaries
    ADB Debugging enabled by default
    Init.d and Su.d script support on boot to optimize system performance

    Issues:

    Shouldn't be any.

    How to Install:

    A. Update your device to the latest firmware for your carrier. Google it.

    1. Download.
    2. Put on SDCard
    3. Launch Installer (i.e - OPEN ROM .ZIP WITH YOUR RECOVERY)
    4. Select full wipe for initial flash, dirty if you're brave. (Mileage May vary)(<-That means if dirty flash doesn't work, don't ask about it, just do a clean flash)
    5. Select your carrier.
    6. Pick apps.
    7. Flash.
    8. Choose whether to reboot. If you're using MultiROM, don't select the reboot option, as recovery needs to update your kernel.
    9. ????
    10. PROFIT!!!

08.07.14 - 

Fixed issues with Lunar kernel causing bootloops in certain cases.

Made "L" stuff more optional - framework-res for animations, systemUI for IC stuff, settings.apk for settings, and a new headsup app. You can pick each component to install.

All three MMS apps in the ROM are now fixed for size stuff. Because I'm replacing a core system app (Hangouts), there *MAY* be issues if you have an updated version of it installed as well. I got a bunch of google f/c's after dirty flash - rebooting seems to fix this.

Replaced the heads-up apk with a better one that's free, and works in all rotations.

Forced rotation is now an optional system mod in the installer.

SD camera is now an optional system mod in the installer. 

Hot reboot now works as expected, instead of making the phone bootloop.

The torch apk works as expected. As an additional happy accident, the flash mini-app in the dotview mod module for xposed now works.  

Re-added several of the init.d scripts for optimization (not the one that makes it optimize apps every time )

Added the proper ART fix.

Now with free cookies!

08.03.14 - 

Add MrJayDee's data drop fix.

Modify framework.jar to force all apps into auto-rotate.

Complete overhaul of VZW/carrier settings from Stock.

Android L features made optional again.

Updated to latest Luna kernel.

Luna kernel now has working CIFS!  (requires CIFSmanager, must mount share to mnt/cifs/foo)

Updated Kernel tuner to kernel tuner 2014.

Fixed wipe settings in installer to allow selection of wipe options.

Updated several system apps, including dotview and HTC TV.

Optional camera app modded to allow writing to SD_external.

More sprockets than ever!

    Okay, so, here's the scoop.

    Me, HolyAngel, and Captain_throwback have ALL had the official release for a good chunk of time already. Not the one I've posted...but the release-keys, official, OTA version that will start kicking out tomorrow.

    However, we were asked to keep it under our hats, so we tried.

    But, people scavenging AFH found his version, so now all bets are off and I'm uploading the highly polished version I've been preparing to release later this evening.

    So, screw it. It's going up. It's official. It's got newer firmware, bluetooth works perfectly, chromecast is good...it's damned solid all-around.

    Oh, and it supports ALL carriers, and Captain_Throwback has asked me to take over official duties, so I will have a multiversion ready for you just as soon as my internet will let me.

    Must put the son to bed...more details soon.

    So, I've got some bad news...

    I had planned on releasing a 120214 build today using our current version that had updated Viper4A, updated project ERA, fixed HOSTS file, updated SuperSU, Ambient Display, even more refinements to the tweaks and enhancements, and a few more uninstallable system apps.

    But that is just not going to happen tonight.

    It saddens me to have to inform you guys, but I've been forced by extenuating circumstances...to release a 120214 build today using the NEW RC build from HTC. You know, the one Mo Versi said was going to be delayed again? Yeah...that one. Well, we got our hands on it, and I have no idea what Google is on, because this thing is like buttered butter. It's like somebody covered a slip n' slide in KY jelly.

    And yes, in the four hours we've had it now, we've been able to rip it apart, decompile the boot.oat, and add in all the APM mods. Plus I've got Ambient Display for you guys. And I fixed the g0$*#mn HOSTS file for adblocking.

    So yeah. Get your donate buttons ready. If you were like "Man digitalhigh, this is the most ridiculously awesome ROM ever." with the previous builds, you're gonna cream in your tighty whities over this baby. I'm serious.

    I'm doing what is hopefully my final test flash here, and then I will be uploading for your consumable goodness. AND I might actually go to bed before midnight one night this week. Score for me.

    Wow. Pretty sad reading through here, between the squabbling and the noobs asking stupid questions and not providing any useful information, despite my repeated requests for stuff like logcats, what version you flashed, or what firmware you're on.

    I'm happy to try helping, but this is getting ridiculous. I couldn't even post new info on builds if I wanted to... It'd just get swept away in two minutes.

    If you're not providing the info I request ad nauseum, I will simply report your post for deletion. I don't have enough time to develop, have a life, and babysit this thread.
