[ROM] Android Revolution HD 53.1 | ART | High Quality & Performance | 6.12.401.4_R

[Einwod]

Hey Guys,

I was on ARHD 53.1, it was functioning normally, until last time use, that rom got very slow and I selected "Restart" button in power menu in order to get a fresh boot again and to fasten apps like before (I thought that slow speed of rom was due to some software issues or something),,, after that guess what? not only can I load the ARHD rom, but also I can't boot into TWRP !!!

My phone is shutted down, it doesn't respond to power button pressing. after about a min it turns on in respond to power button pressed, and it enters FASTBOOT. after changing to HBOOT menu and selecting RECOVERY, it doesn't enter twrp recovery at all, just 3 android icons beside each other appear and after that it enters FASTBOOT again.
and when it is shutted down when plugged into charger, it starts with battery icon with lightning within it (but without any red written lines at bottom or HTC logo) and then it boots into FASTBOOT AC menu again!
As it doesn't show any HTC logo, I presume that my device is broken.
in FASTBOOT menu it shows "INVALID_VER_INFO" in-front of RADIO and OpenDSP.
my m8 doesn't boot android ROM (ARHD 53.1), it doesn't boot TWRP recovery neither.

The only good news is that FASTBOOT USB works and i can flash zip files or any other commands.
Here's the result of "fastboot getvar all" command:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: INVALID_VER_INF

I also flashed TWRP.img file via FASTBOOT, but still have problem entering recovery.

what should i do guys?
Can I copy my internal storage files to pc?
should I flash RUU?
shoud I start a new topic?

You should not cross post in more than 1 thread. It will arrive only lead to confusion. I would suggest going or trying to go back to stock, then retrying ARHD.

about cross posting: I didn't know that rule, OK, Be sure that I won't do so again.
BTW, How can I go back to stock without being able to go to recovery or booting any ROM?

Not just a cross post, but this isn't a problem with the ARHD ROM. I'd recommend to keep further discussion in the other place, where I'm trying to help you: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/help-thread-htc-one-m8-questions-t2897783/page595

I have wi-fi problem sir. I tried 2-3 different roms and all have same issue. I try to connect wi-fi, it says saved, disabled and stops trying to connect. This happens irregularly. i was able to use wi-fi without problem for 2 weeks and now it doesn't connect again. Somehow when i look up the phone i see that wifi connected again. I started to believe that my phone is ghosted

Things I've tried;
-I reinstalled roms (multiple roms)
-I tried different roms
-I changed wifi network's name (even rebuilded whole proccess)
-I tried static dns

If someone help me with this please, i will be appreciated forever. I can't afford another mobile phone

This ROM was never meant to be installed on AT&T devices. You should return to stock AT&T firmware/ROM and that should sort your problems especially WIFI issues. This ROM was made for GSM devices.

Thanks for the circus reference. I don't work for the circus, however, the ROM will not work with AT&T devices. Choose your words carefully next time.

You are the one that said this rom works with GSM devices. The AT&t variant is a GSM variant you clown.

@Mike1986 , firstly thank you very much for keeping our m8's up and running.:good:
2ndly- the "Android Revolution | Mobile Device.Technologies" site
http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html?m=1
which is awesome ; DL links not working for mobile device using chrome , specifically "Rooting Tools for the Htc One m8" (&m9) all the other links are good as far as i can tell.
not sure if this is under your 'jurisdiction' but thought i'd mention it. [error message is : this site cant be reached].
thank you again for all your m8 work.

 

[mrrocketdog]

does anyone have an idea :
i was going to give this rom a trial run but i am having an issue ; after flashing your rom i flash SuperSU , but when i reboot it does not have root nor is the superSU app in app drawer. (p.s. magisk is not an option for me).
ever hear of something like this or know a possible solution?

I am having a problem setting sd card as internal storage. I have tried both the 128GB and 64 GB. After selecting my card as internal storage, when I select format and around 20% done, my phone powers off and stuck in a continuous bootloop and my phone doesn't boot up until I remove the sd card. Any Help!

Same as on Viper 6.1.0

Remembering how old this ROM is, is your SD card formatted as FAT32? It must be FAT32 for this ROM as I remember.

I tested Android Revolution HD 53.1 on my HTC One M8, wifi signal was way too slow (doesn't happen on other roms), i selected to install gmail and chrome apps and those installed as user apps but they doesn't appear, i tried to move that apps and other apps to system and after rebooting, apps didn't move to system, like i didn't anything, also i want to know if i could install magisk instead of SuperSU because if i install SuperSU, i can't install some apps from play store.

Also i want to say, rom looked really smooth and nice but those problems make me stop using it.

Edit: i reinstalled this rom and didn't get any problem anymore, i think it was because the previous rom i had installed, i want to ask. Is there an way to odex this rom? i want to at least odex the apps i could odex to make this phone boot faster after factory reset.

The only things i didn't like are two

1. I can't modify system when i boot this rom, i can only do in TWRP
2. Some of the installed Google Apps i chose to install were on user partition instead of system one but moving apk files from data partition to system/priv-app and giving them correct permissions make those apps work perfectly on system

An note: if you want to replace SuperSu with magisk, flash the attached file, then open the Android Revolution HD 53.1.zip with winrar then extract boot.img and move it to your phone, flash boot.img from twrp then install magisk.

Edit 2:
This rom has more battery consumption and also freezing than android 10 and 11 roms and is so strange because is an android marshmallow rom.
