Oh snap! I know what in doing when I get off work tonight! Excited to see our first custom Rom with tweaks and on latest firmware as well!!!!

I would assume then (Not sure if it is stated in OP?) since we are all coming from older firmware we need to do a factory reset along with wiping cache and dalvik before flashing?

Once we do this and use your Rom. Can we then go back to the stock Verizon Rom if needed running the older firmware? Not sure how all this firmware works if once we upgrade via this Rom we have it for good or varies?

wooooo can't wait!! so the download link goes to the regular htc one m8. is that link still for the verizon variant?

Verizon is officially supported. This thread will be used for Verizon-specific issues, but the download link is the same for all versions.

Custom ROMs don't update firmware. We do that manually through fastboot. You definitely want to wipe all data (except internal/SD) when flashing this, but you can easily restore a stock backup if needed.

I did that quite a few times while working with Turge to get this booting on Verizon. :)

And the gates have opened. Do we have to flash the aroma zip to install it on the phone first, then install the rom? On my DNA, I think getting aroma on the device initially required me to flash some zip.

If you liked my post, please hit the "thanks" button.

U WOT M8?

Nope. Just download, verify MD5 (I'm paranoid like that), and flash.

Can you please explain to me how? What kind of backup should I do before flashing? Then after doing all wipes you recommended, how do I restore or what do I restore in TWRP so not all is lost? Thanks

Loving this so far. Noticed two small issues though:

1) The data usage icon in settings is distorted/incorrect
2) There seems to be a small delay for short home button presses

1 is a theme issue, and will be corrected at some point. 2 is there because of the option of double tapping Home to launch an action. You can modify the time is waits for another press in Tweaks.

    A few points:

    • It is usually advisable not to download a rom for a specific device when a warning exists above or to the right of the download link (ie. "Please note: We apologize but Verizon support was removed due to technical issues")
    • In the list of requirements, we have: "We suggest to make a backup from your currently running system first.". We really suggest you do it. This way if we screw up.. well, guess what? You're still up and running.
    • The ROM install wipes system, cache and optionally, data. When wiping data within the rom install, we give you the ability to migrate your tweak settings. If you wipe anything BEFORE flashing the rom, you lose this ability, and it's completely pointless anyways.
    • Don't blame us for your stupidity. We work hard to provide you something to enhance your phone experience. This isn't a business, but a pastime. We're not Walmart so please don't treat us like you bought something that you're not happy with.
