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.

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. ????

It also has all of the fonts, sounds, wallpapers, and the boot animation from the latest preview. File's at 18% now, should appear in the link I posted with the screenshots in a bit. I need to sleep. :P

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.

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!

Reporting Bugs:

I have a limited amount of time, and there are a TON of posts made to this thread asking for help. I try to answer as many as I can, but sometimes the questions are so redundant or vague - it's not worth my time. To avoid being one of these posts...do the following...

Since this is now a multicarrier ROM, the number of variables involved in solving some issues has increased threefold. If you are reporting an issue, is is going to be very beneficial to both you and I to let me know a few things. What version of this ROM did you flash (post the filename), carrier you're on, what firmware you're using, what kernel you installed, and if you did a dirty flash or restored apps with TiBu.

Also,

I'm a big fan of logcats, especially when it's an issue that can't be easily reproduced. As this is basically a vanilla ROM, the issues should be minimal, but if you do have a problem that can't be easily reproduced, then you need to post a logcat, or I may ignore you or say something snarky instead of providing assistance. Obviously, a description of the issue and how to reproduce it help as well. Saying "my phone dun not work" isn't going to help.

Now, read below and see if your question has already been answered.

Common Issues/FAQ

My wifi turns off when the phone goes to sleep.

Flash the firmware in the OP.


GPS Isn't working(GPS ISSUES)
Flash a stock sense ROM.
Get a GPS lock. (gps only) - You can verify this using GPS Toolbox.
Reboot to recovery.
Flash my ROM.

This doesn't always work on the first try, but once you fix it, it should stay fixed. I've personally had to try like three or four times to get it to stick...but then it's flawless.

Update: People have also reported success by flashing sense - copying gps.conf from /system/etc, flashing back to GPE, and then putting gps.conf back into /system/etc.


What does kernel XXX do?

Look here.


What's this firmware?

It is the wifi, chipset, touchscreen, sensorhub, and adsp (sound) firmware from the official 5.0/5.1GPE release for GSM devices. I have removed the hboot, tz, boot.img, recovery, and repartitioning done by the firmware, as well as modified it to be flashed to any carrier device.


Is this stock HTC/Sense 7 App included? I want it.

The list of current working HTC Stock Apps are:
Dotview
HTC TV
Weather
Camera (Zoe not working)
Gallery
Blinkfeed
Keyboard
Browser
Music Player
File Manager


I've already got the ROM installed and want to do an update...should I wipe first?

Probably not? It depends on which version you're on, but for the most part, you should be fine dirty flashing. My approach is always to try first, and then if there are issues, do a wipe and rebuild my apps and stuff. Most changes I'm making at this point should not require a wipe. If I feel it's wise, I will state as such when posting news of a new release.

If you're NOT currently using GPE, then YES, you need to wipe.


I tried a dirty flash, and the device *almost booted* but it's stuck at "starting apps". Now what?


Sorry. It sounds like you're one of the people where a dirty flash won't work. This is *usually* a result of updating google play services and skipping revisions. You could try manually deleting the folder /data/data/com.google.android.gms using TWRP file manager. If that still doesn't work, then you should probably just do a clean install.


I tried a dirty flash, and the device booted, but a bunch of apps are crashing/not working/complaining about files missing. What is with this *&^# ROM?


Dirty flashing is called "dirty" for a reason. You're taking a running filesystem and trying to insert a bunch of new programs. Sometimes this works, sometimes the jump from app versions is so much that it breaks those apps. The simple fix is to do a clean flash. If you're feeling more intrepid, find the folder for that app in /data/data and delete it using root explorer or TWRP file manager.
Will Xposed work with this?

You betcha! This has the "alpha" Xposed for 5.1. It is very solid. However, the modules that have been updated to work with 5.1 are still a little scarce, so you will have to test some of them to see if they work.

For your convenience, I have included Gravitybox and Xhangouts with the installer.


I installed this ROM, and now my screen/wifi/touchscreen/etc isn't working correctly!

Have you read through the firmware instructions in the OP? Please do.


Will I be able to use other ROMS with this firmware?

Probably? All I'm doing is replacing hardware bits with the latest ones. If your wifi doesn't work on a different ROM...flash the stock firmware back.


Okay, so does the Sense camera not work with this ROM or not?

IT DOES! For the longest time...it didn't. But now it does, and it's included with the ROM.

A few of the features (like Zoe) are not available, but this is the only Sense 7 Camera/Gallery combo with working Duo FX.


I flashed this ROM, and now my SD card is gone in recovery!

Your stuff is still there - your recovery just isn't smart enough to see it. Update to the latest version of TWRP by Captain_Throwback from here and you will be fine.


HELP! I flashed this ROM, and now my LTE doesn't work...even on other ROMS!

First off, chill out. This is a known issue with HTC devices as a result of nothing more than flashing ROMS over and over and over and over again. While it is alarming, it's fairly easy (albeit involved) to fix. Read below:

Anyone having radio issues: The NV partition, which handles the radios, may be corrupted. Especially if you do a lot of ROM and firmware flashing. You can flash all the ROM's and firmware you like but it will not change the fact something is corrupt. The only way to reset the partition to out of the box stock is to flash your carrier's 4.4.4 firmware and the stock recovery for you device. Reboot to recovery and select factory data reset and let it do it's thing. If you watch the reset log you will see it mention resetting the NV partition. Then just flash back your recovery of choice and ROM of choice. This has been the proven fix for HTC devices for a few years now.

Is it presently still not possible to incorporate HTC sense framework to have things like Zoe , Gallery, Camera, and... Well I guess that's all I really care about haha. I want to take advantage of the dual back cams, but other than that, I want my AOSP style back!

This is a port of the GPE, correct? so I think the camera software was included! (at least according to a video I saw)

If someone can confirm, I think I may make a switch... Thanks!

Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk

I'll let you know if it works on this one soon. But it should, I read somewhere a while back where HTC supplied the ONE M8 GPe with the camera firmware to make it work. And since the software for the GPe devices come from the manufacturer not from Google, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

This feels laggy compared to the stock ROM. I might have to switch back if it doesn't change.

That's very surprising. Maybe it is missing certain optimizations? In my experiences I've never seen a GPE Rom get outperformed by something Sense-Based.

Though I will say that my tweaked/rooted Stock Rom with faux kernel is ripping fast right now. Best stock experience I've had to date.

Are the audio enhancements there? I really think HTC nailed the audio with boomsound.

I'm synced and settled down, and the only lag I get is with camera. Everything else seems comparably responsive.

I am seeing the lag as well, nothing horrible but it is there, I have noticed after a reboot though it mostly goes away. Except in the camera. It is almost unusable. Also I can confirm that the dual camera system is definitely working right. Also I think that we are still having raido issues, I attached a few screenshots but I am on 3G, and my other M8 that is stock gets LTE when I sit them side by side. And my network is 31000 instead of Verizon Wireless, and we are still roaming.

    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
    Cast to Screen enabled
    HTC TV App replaced with Peel TV Remote (IR Blaster)
    Permissive SELinux

    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!!!

    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.

    Now with free cookies!

    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.
