Carbon Rom Nightlies for M8 look to be live! - Sprint HTC One (M8)

I'm sure that someone from the Carbon team will make an official post sometime soon but I periodically check their database and noticed that they now have nightlies for the M8! Woohoo! Was one of my favorites on my MoPho 4G LTE and M7 so looking forward to installing this in just a few minutes.
Here's the link: https://carbonrom.org/downloads/?device=m8&type=nightly
P.S. Hope this is not out of line for me to post before someone from their team does I just wanted to share my happiness! =)

Greetings,
I moved your thread to General and removed the link until it can be confirmed working on the Sprint M8.
Thanks BD619

Fair enough, good sir. I do not know what exactly you require to show as proof but here are some screenshots I just took after installing^^
Don't judge me on my quick theming, was just trying to show the customizations work =P
After first reboot I did get a Gapps FC but I believe that may be due to the outdated binary I was warned of when installing the Gapps package I used(LiquidGapps from the Liquid Rom download page). Also, this ROM appears to be afflicted with the same forgetfulness as the other AOSP ROMs when it comes to WiFi passwords but so far those are the only things I've come across and one of them was likely my fault.

Thanks for confirming, my concern was it was built for GSM devices, and it would soft brick a Sprint device.
I don't see any harm in posting the link again.

No problem. I remembered I think Aarrgghh saying that CArbon wouldn't have a m8 build until Cyanogen unified their m8 devices so I knew once I saw it up there it was going to work for CDMA as well as GSM but I should definitely have posted AFTER installing and trying it if I'm going to promote a link, haha. Thanks for keeping me from possibly doing someone else a disservice.^^
Here is the link again if anyone wants to try it out:
http://carbonrom.org/downloads/?device=m8&type=nightly
The 5/20 build is still running stable for me since I installed last night. Haven't tried the 5/22 one yet but I'm about to. ^^
Happy Flashing!

Added the link to post 1 also

Any other bugs besides Wi-Fi passwords?

Yeah, I've came across another...camera app(native or 3rd party) seems to cause a reboot when opened. Possibly one or two more but i don't know if it would be better to wait for an official carbon thread/dev before i start complaining, haha.

[DEV]Ultimate AOSP ICS Testing Arena [Always Updating]

Mod Edit: Per Kraizk, please carefully read the thread & all posts. Not all links are updated & flashing the incorrect file may cause issues. The items posted in here are generally for advanced users or those knowledgeable enough to contribute to the project. I am in no way dissuading you from trying something new, just asking you to be thorough & certain about what you are downloading. Some links may be outdated, incomplete or outdated builds
This is a new dev chat area for my ICS builds. I finally have power, so am back to work on these builds all day today. I will be uploading each new testing build without updating this thread, so it's imperative you check the upload time on mediafire.
At the end of each build day I will be renaming the most stable/functional build as the beta for the day, or uploading an older build as the Beta for the day.
Some builds may not boot, may not have fully functioning cam, and may not have working cell due to attempting to get fully functional cell, and functioning mobile data. I'm also attempting to revert some very hacky workarounds and still maintain full functionality.
I'm not responsible for failure to read this, broken phones, or user error.
Install instructions:
-Flash ota zip in recovery
-Reboot to Fastboot, and flash boot.img
-YOU NEED THE NEW HBOOT!
If you don't know how to follow the instructions, then these testing builds are definitely not for you, and I would wait for the daily beta.
Download Testing Builds In the Test folders, boot.img will always upload before the ota zip, so please be patient.

Damn, you beat me to the second post! After logcats, or suggestions from dev minded folks really, but currently building test4 due to issues with test3(test3 is the current build up as labeled).
This just seemed like the most efficient way to continue moving forward, and then by the end of my build day there will be a stable/functional beta labeled as such for the less adventurous.
Excellent man!. I was wondering if you'd get this up before I returned from vacation.

Yeah! Test3 is quite broken actually, so working on Test4 also without using the prebuilt libril. If needed I'll revert to prebuilt by the time I need to upload a full beta.
Edit: And I need to learn to code more and build less. Was looking through the log, and realized I accidentally copied over something from the shooter that obviously won't work for us.

Once Test4 finishes building (if it boots), let me know! or just shoot me a logcat. I've only been able to test on vivid thus far. "adb logcat > logcattest.txt" is the command to run without the quotes to get a log sent to a text file (won't display anything while it's running), or copy past from adb logcat.

Haha, sorry. Mods, feel free to delete my post. Looks like I signed into XDA at the wrong time
I've had quite a bit of experience with CM and what it's supposed to do. Just not the development side. I've got the Velocity 4G, so as long as I won't end up bricked I'll try anything you like. I'll have to wait until tonight to test though - gotta be careful downloading big files at work. Thanks for your hard work!

If you're worried about bricking your device, then please don't test until I hear from someone else that the Velocity 4G is functional. Though it doubt it will occur, anything is possible, and I don't want to be blamed for anything.

[RECOVERY] [UNOFFICIAL] CWM 6.0.3.0 TOUCH BASED RECOVERY fully working NO REBOOT BUG

Welcome happy campers
Here is a fully working pretty much fully tested port of Clockwork Mod Recovery 6.0.3.0
Big thanks to UTKANOS at #cyanogenmod irc channel for his help in building this for me to test till everything was working
FEATURES
All features in 6.0.3.0 based CWM recoveries are implemented
Touch screen working
Restore/Backup functions
All wipe functions
All Mount functions
Install from sd and Internal storage
Generally all features you expect from working ClockWorkMod recovery
without further ado here is the link to the recovery image: http://d-h.st/nMv
md5 Checksum : 8f7dda170425218f47717a9c9c931bea
source code at utkanos' github: https://github.com/utkanos/android_device_htc_golfu
Thanks goes out to mmmcfc for his initial work on the recovery we worked on to bring you this version, his original thread at :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785010
to install recovery is same as always for people who already know
for those of you who are new to this and do not know but are at the point of installing a custom recovery through a rom install guide please simply turn off your Desire C device, drop out the battery just in case fastboot is on in your rom settings, replace your battery then hold the volume down key and hold power button till you boot to bootloader.
Ensure phone is on fastboot setting (will have fastboot written in red if you are) plug in the usb cable and it should say fastboot usb now then enter this command from terminal window that is in the directory where you have this image downloaded to
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.0-golfu.img
with any joy you should now be able to reap the benefits of touch screen enabled up to date CWM recovery
enjoy
p.s. if you have issues installing this or do not know what our doing either do not install OR search the forums for root guide and recovery install guides and if you cannot find something relevant feel free to pm me
dont forget to come to our irc channel at irc.freenode.net ##HTCDesireCcm9 (dont forget to put two hash signs not one) we are friendly in the channel and are hoping it will begin to grow alongside development for the device
thanks
soon to come wifi fix for CM9, hopefully soon CM10 build and with all the fixes no doubt many custom roms from many users throughout our device section

Not totally sure dude about your question as this was actually built by utkanos with no device with me and russell testing the builds as they were made till we had it working with no reboots and with fully accessing adb rights when in recovery. i had massive issues when using th TWRP recovery that was posted so it may be TWRP specific that your issues lie. the source code is all available at utkanos github linked in the OP so you can surely tell from that if device tree is correct. if not maybe try to rebuild the trees. i myself have little experience in these matter XD

any thanks you guys want to click my way are welcomed and would be nice, amazing that over in my general section post to this thread there is a total of maybe 3 thanks per nearly 2,500 visitors to the link
now thats appreciation for ya
Just one question, am i blind, or this one has no clean battery stats?
Is it really needed, and is there a workaround (which file to delete)?

[INFO] Roms Fully Sprint Functional UPDATE:01/11/14 fix in second post

Hey guys so this was brought to my attention by another user, @daftlush . Dating back to my OGEvo4g we were conditioned to believe Update PRL/Profile could not be done in AOSP, specifically on Sprint. This was somewhat debunked when the Nexus came out to Sprint because it had this feature in AOSP. @daftlush brought up in another thread asking about this and I assumed like before it just wasnt in AOSP, except Google has it working. So I wanted to compile a list of roms that are fully Sprint functional that include Update PRL/Profile.
First, I noticed on roms where it does work it will finish Activating Data you dont have to press skip. I dont know if it is just a coincidence but the one rom I found this feature actually working, I did not have to hit skip once i saw LTE instead it finished and moved onto the next step.
If you know of a rom where this does work, please list it and I will update the list. I am hoping we can track down the necessary code to get this fully working on all AOSP roms.
UPDATE: 01/11/14
I was able to get the fix from team slim it is located in the second post
UPDATE 01/09/14
Newest Slimkat build has the feature confirmed working. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49278373&postcount=3240)
I have sent a PM to the OP of the AOSPA thread to see if they can work on getting this going as well. Still waiting to hear back from AOKP since the first conversation. Lets help spread this info so we can enjoy our hammerhead! If you can help find the code needed on gerrit please let me know I have been looking but I dont have much experience in reviewing code, if it is found I can update post #2 with the detail for all devs to utilize.
UPDATE 01/06/14
I have passed on this information to a few days and so far, AOKP, SLIM, CNA have stated they will look into the code from Vanir and Cyanogenmod to see what they did in order to get these options working. Slim says it is a current WIP for them and last I talked to someone from AOKP they said they would look into it and we should have it working. CNA also said they would look into it.
Unfortunately OMNI doesnt look to be working on it, I did not get this info from someone on team omni but many posts have stated they dont want to include any closed source items from stock, i didnt know sprint hidden menu and prl/profile updates were closed source but that is unfortunate as I know a lot of us Sprint users would love to run OMNI, but for me no prl/profile updates make it hard to run as a DD (fellow Sprint users probably understand as prl updates sometimes fix our data issue)
Full working on Sprint (Activate data works, Update PRL/Profile works):
Vanir
Cataclysm
Stock Google
Anything based off Stock Image
Cyanogenmod
CM Based Variants
Slimkat (fixed per dev http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49226687&postcount=3155) / now confirmed working as of 1/9 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49278373&postcount=3240)
BobcatRom - confirmed working (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49284722&postcount=18)
AOKP 1/12/14 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49340913&postcount=306)
AOSPA - the fix has been merged but no build put out since then, this is as of 1/11/14 future builds after this date should work (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49343381&postcount=303) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49346234&postcount=313 confirmed Update PRL/Profile works as well)
Custom Raskat by @soccerfan6768 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49412543&postcount=2624) he said hell pass on the fix to the raskatdevs for officials
Purity
Sprint data works w/o APN hack, but no update PRL/Profile(once you see LTE icon you must hit skip on activating data):
OMNI
Codename Android
Sprint data works with APN hack only:
PSX
First and foremost I want to give a very big THANK YOU to @cordell12 for putting up with my constant nagging surrounding this subject and to @kufikugel from slimteam for figuring it out. I hope cordell12 doesnt mind me posting their fix.
Per cordell12 "yes, it is blobs. those who do not have it(prl/profile update) working are using blobs from google website. those who do(prl/profile update) are using extracted blobs from stock build/device"
here is a link to the slimteams gerrit with the fix that made it work on their rom: https://gerrit.slimroms.net/#/c/1714/
i was told by another member that this fix also needed to be implemented https://gerrit.slimroms.net/#/c/1717/
Help me spread the word to the devs of non-fully functional roms on sprint.
So i have updated the list again today, CM has it working as do a few others. I am not good with git or code, does anyone know what the commit is that fixes this so i can help spread the word to other devs?

The sprint. Zip file that allows you to get past the welcome screen on some roms and have data connection enabled, i few roms will be unusable if you don't flash this after the rom and the gapps,i think

On the fully compatible ROMs are you also able to access the Sprint Hidden Dialer Menu(*#*#3282#*#*)? I really hope Sprint users can get full compatibility across all ROMs.

The roms that are fully working, have the hidden menu. I just checked for you and it does work, this is only tested on those that PRL/Profile update work!
MY goal of this thread is to figure out what code is missing from the roms so we(sprint users) can enjoy all the goodies.

The Sprint hack enables the correct APNs for Sprint so you can have data, otherwise you get no data which makes our phones useless
Just a heads up, Update PRL/Profile is FIXED on SlimKat and will be included in our next Official build :good:

I do too, it's so nice to know that I have the option of going with a prepaid service like T-Mobile or At&t. Basically, anything except Verizon will fully work (and I don't really miss Verizon any.)
thanks to this thread i found about Vanir and will never turn back to anything else!
Tons of great info here, thanks OP!
Thank you cordell for giving us an update!!
I have sent a message to the hammerhead maintainer of AOSPA to see if they will also implement this "fix"
Has anyone been able to see the code from either CM, Slim, or Vanir? I want to update post #2 with that info so the other devs can easily access them.
BobcatRom works flawlessly on sprint, and is an amazing ROM. I highly recommend people to check it out. Its beautiful.

I'm sure the community here respects all of the work that you do. My post in the other thread was not intended to "get you in trouble". There are a set of rules that every user has to follow, regardless of their contributions to the community. That being said, when I was a newer member, I accidentally broke the rules a couple of times (nothing major) and didn't want the same to happen to someone else. (I never contacted @Divine_Madcat about your other thread, in case you were thinking I did.)

Yep i was tinking to that... so I'm also sorry. The thing is i spent a lot, lot of time on this port, and Divine_Madcat didn't even give me the time to update the first thread with the needed files/informations and ignore my pm which was an offense to me. Well i have to complies to the rules too but was a little chocked on how the thread got mad. Well, let's hope it won't be the same here. So that said i have no problem with you !

While i am sorry you are upset, it was not a slight at you at all. While i do try to keep an eye on XDA while at work, my job does come first and foremost, and i was unable to handle anything here yesterday (what can i say, 12 hour work days suck). As it was, i have literally nothing against you; to be frank, the report on the thread was the first i had even seen.
From my perspective, we had a placeholder thread, which is not allowed, so it was closed. I fully intended to reopen it, but gave my reasons above...
Anyway, i do wish you luck, and i really dont have any ill will to you...
So....
Do we have unlocked bootloader or a root exploit for amazon firmware 4.5.2 soon? And do you have plan to release another for Apollo?
Thanks

Nobody knows. But there are a few people working on "unlocks" (at least booting an unsigned kernel). Maybe also jcase releases his unlock (which I doubt because of legal issues).
Hi!
I have rooted Kindle Thor. How do I install this nice piece of software?
Like the Nexus rom? Currently I am on 3.2.7...
Thanks

You need to be on 4.5.2 and rooted.

Mmmmmhhh
Than this rom is basically usless
Who has a 4.5.2 Base and Rooted??? I would do it if I'll get the tools, no fear of a brick
Too bad. But Nevertheless Many thanks for the work and effort!

There are a few Users which do have an unlocked Bootloader, this Rom is only for these Users, as stated in the first Post.
I decided to make the rom available in case i loose interest in this device (or if i ever die soon). This way when (if) a root exploit is available then you'll be ready to use it.
Ok... So if there IS a possibility to unlock the actual fireos, please give some hints, instead of publishings Roms that one or two users can install, the rest is completely helpless...

Sharing hundreds of hours of work is helpless/useless for you ?
You know what ? I actually spent the whole day on porting cm-10 to current exploitable kernel for YOU :/
Everybody chill , @openWeb74, i see your point @Cpasjuste , first let me thank you for all your work, I'm pretty sure its a great Rom!
What openweb said was that maybe we should concentrate our efforts in unlocking the bootloader so even greater support can come.
Unfortunately we, the rest of us common mortals (with locked bootloaders) cannot use it.
As you said, this would work if somebody would release the bootloader-unlock , so lets play the waiting game...
The thing is I'm a common mortal like you :/ Like its said on first post, unfortunately, I do not have the tools nor the knowledge to reproduce the unlock, so I share what I can.
I really have to say sorry, if you dont know how to reproduce the hack... Mea culpa. It sounded like the hack is known, but cant be made public because of copyright issues or something like that... Then we have to wait. Nothing is secure when the right person gets a hdx... I have to say, that my actual hdx was rooted with towelroot, even easier than the nexus (less button combinations ) so i didnt expect amazon to be such a **** with newer firmwares.

Sorry for nagging you about it, but — genuinely asking — how did you do it on your device in the first place?
dear Cpasjuste, thanks for your great work, and how to install this Rom ? I am newbie, so..
OK... So you are a newbie in reading too?

I may eventually move to another tablet as I'm loosing interest in this device (because cm is working fine [emoji14]). Would someone be interested to get my device (not for free )?

OSA Development

Since this thread is no longer just about me trying to get lollipop running on this phone (I AM still doing that though) I decided to 'rebrand' it as a general development thread for OSA. What's OSA? It stands for Only Some Android...ok so whats that? A team name I came up with to make myself feel more important (btw we're always looking for contributors).
So instead of focusing on just lollipop I will be discussing pretty much anything and everything I am doing in regards to the Desire 510.
Original Post Below:
Hi all, I am currently working on getting lollipop working on the Desire 510. So far I had a successful compile of LiquidSmooth 5.1.1 a couple nights ago but not a successful boot. I am currently 97% done syncing the CyanogenMod 12.1 sources (5.1.1 r3) and am now using the omni twrp sources to ensure a higher compatibility for the recovery, I am hoping for a successful boot soon.
I have the virgin mobile cdma model of the device and that's what I will be targeting although I will do my best to make sure the device tree is universal. If anyone has any insight or advice I am all ears.
I am going to use this thread as a development thread until I get the required 10 posts and I get a booting rom.

im pretty sure shinrus device tree has a unified irl,its here https://github.com/shinru2004/android_device_htc_a11 ,also,did you update the kernel you were using? our kernel doesnt have support for loli,all tho rbhero has a branch in his kernel tree that he said works on loli

Im working on all that, I'm looking into using the msm8974 kernel, from what I have read it's practically identical to the 8226, I am also using the a5 (desire 816) as a template since the two devices are so similar. Little by little I am getting there, having to figure out these errors as they come.

rbhero has a modded a5 tree up if you wanna take a look at it,and just since your here..
have you gotten a error to something along the lines of:
make: *** No rule to make target `/home/pattyboi/source/out/target/product/a11/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libqdutils_intermediates/export_includes', needed by `/home/pattyboi/source/out/target/product/a11/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libsurfaceflinger_intermediates/import_includes'. Stop

I actually just did, thanks for the heads up. I am going to look at / try his configs and see where it goes.
Yeah I have gotten a few of those errors, but not on surfaceflinger, mine are mostly on bionic and libcutils

Well the reason I posted this here is because I don't have the required ten posts yet. So I wouldn't have been able to make this thread to post anything. This is #9 and I am making progress so i will go ahead and contact a mod soon to have it moved over.

Gotcha. I didn't even know that was a rule. I was just giving you the heads up lol.
no worries. yeah you need 10 posts in order to post anything in the development subforums for the devices.
I just pm'd a mod and asked to have the thread moved to the appropriate subforum. Also I am making a LITTLE Progress, it does feel like two steps forward and one step back however. I'm confident that between those of us who are wanting it that it will happen.
Not sure if anyone is interested but I created another slack room under my account if anyone developing for the 510 wants to join and collaborate in order to (hopefully) let this device see its potential. Just pm me and i'll send you an invite.
Quickie update, I keep running in to the same set of errors and I know the answer is right in front of my face but im just not seeing it. I have a sneaking suspicion that I may be missing some headers and libraries on my machine but I can't be sure.
Also I've forgotten how much I dislike working with kernels lol

whats up with the kernel? im good in that department for the most part,roms are...eh,not my specialty
I can't get any kernel to compile, I keep getting failures while making the drivers.
Currently using a pre compiled image to at least try to get the rom built, I can solve these errors, i've done it before on other devices. How's progress on your end if any?

can you post one of the errors when you get a sec?
& none,got so angry at the stupid libqdutils thing i had last night i havent even attempted anything yet,been working on setting zswap/vnswap up so we have some leeway when it comes to ram..you got github at all?
I was fighting with libcutils for about two days, stupid friggin unicode strings....but I got past that, right now it's mostly "no rule to make target" stuff which is easy enough after you go digging around to find the right file/line to edit. Right this very second though I am working on getting the mkbootimg.mk properly set up and get a recovery image cooked.

The TeamYAR TWRP doesn't, not to my knowledge. He had one built locally but he didn't send it to me. I have a CM12 kernel that he built that boots (rom is still ****) but needs default encryption disabled amongst other things.

It's kind of a "me" thing, If I am going to go thru the effort to port cyanogenmod to an unsupported device then I'll take the extra time to compile every bit, including the recovery.
