FAQ​

Q.) How do I use Xposed and Sense 5 Toolbox?

A.) Open the Xposed Installer
Tap Framework > Update/Install
Reboot
Open Xposed Installer and enable the Sense 5 Toolbox > Modules
Reboot and then make changes and reboot once more​

A.)

• Open Xposed Installer
• Tap Update/Install
• Grant su at prompt
• Go back and open the Module tab in the Xposed Installer
• Check the tickbox for Sense 5 Toolbox
• Reboot the device(full reboot)
• Then open Sense 5 Toolbox > Various Mods

DISCLAIMER: We, Team Blackout, Nor myself are responsible for bricks broken devices

should you choose to overclock it does break manufacturer specs. By downloading and using this kernel you agree
that You, the end user, are 100% responsible for any and everything that may happen after use
that being said.. Have fun

boring stuff...
This kernel was sourced from HTCDev's release of GPE HTC One Kit Kat 4.4 source
The kernel is maintained by @Zarboz
thanks to joelz for saving me a lot of time trying my wifi ideas out
thanks to my awesome supporters with out your donations I would run out of caffiene cigarettes and not have a computer to work on
so this kernel is 4.4 Kit kat For HTC Sense.. I can build the same sources for a GPE ROM and fully intend to after some other work is done
this is not full beastmode style kernel YET
as you all know when I work with a dev to port an OS we post a close to stock experience and then after the kernel is proven stable
I go ahead and mod it out
that being said have fun and enjoy Kit Kat

​

Good to see you joined the party
I love when new kernels get made

So do we need to do anything special to get this version to properly flash? I am currently running your 4.3 sense 5.5 rls1.2 Rom. Thank you for all of the work that has made this available to us.

TWRP .6 Beta Only
Have not tried with PhilZ, but I can confrim that regular CWM fails and so does any other Twrp version.

The camera features are more limited for now same as in gsm port.
Other then that, all should be working...its early to say for sure though.
The battery is in 1% increments.
There is no number or percentage visible.
