MM ROM without built in root (alternatively root options) - Sprint HTC One (M8)

I really wanted to use ICE, but I keep getting the same problem as this guy:
x000x said:
tried the most recent version ICE 8.2.2 (r99) and it went through the install process. It rebooted, and got to the setup screen where it promptly shut off my phone. Puzzled, I restarted my phone and got to see 1 second of the display before it shut off again, and got to see that it showed my battery at 1%. When I started the install i had 97% battery. then in the 5 minutes or so that it took to install and reboot it drained it all the way to 1%
I think this is a bug because when i plugged my phone back in to charge it said there was 95% of the battery left
but when i restarted it keeps thinking i only have 1% battery left
I installed from a clean wipe, choosing to wipe everything within ICE install options menu
edit:
8.2.2 (r99) kept rebooting with the 1% battery thing
8.2.0 (r78) got a hands free activation screen. took forever. eventually said it activated, rebooted and went back to hands free activation =/
8.1.0 worked but had some quirks that i didn't like (mobile data kept getting shut off for some reason on its own)

I just want Magisk, no superSU. Whenever I "uninstall/unroot superSU" and then try to install it in TWRP I keep getting some error saying "boot image patched by other programs." That is with BadBoyz and Viper. I know Lineage OS is an option, but I don't want Nougat either.

This thread can be deleted, I figured it out.

Need help please...phone reboot problems

Last night, I downloaded InnovationsOS v3 from the Nexus One Android Development forum. Prior to this I was using FRF50, and I have a rooted Tmobile Nexus One. I wiped the phone back to factory settings and also wiped the Dalvik cache (as I've been told in the past). Flashing went just fine and within a few minutes I had InnovationsOS after a reboot. (Let me just say, with this one minor exception, InnovationsOS looks incredible and I loved every minute of it).
After install, I set up AdFree which removes ads. I decided to do a quick reboot. The reboot wasn't so quick, and it stuck on the startup screen (the Nexus One/Google logo with the unlocked symbol below) for about 3 minutes. I didn't think this was good, so I tried a battery pull hoping for a normal reboot. Instead, what I got was the android falling out of the box. I tried a battery pull again and attempted to enter recovery, which worked. I wiped, and reloaded FRF50, and rebooted. I got the android and the box image, which wouldn't let me even boot into recovery anymore after several battery pulls. After a couple minutes of being completely stumped (and scared lifeless) I let the phone sit, and somehow it booted into recovery, where I wiped (again) and flashed InnovationsOS (again). After it loaded, it rebooted, and it's been working great since then, with the exception of one minor screen/keyboard bug...I press S, and get Z, or I press delete, and I get enter, etc. Plus hitting OK or Cancel on dialog boxes is impossible and need to use the trackball.
So, I would like to reboot to fix this problem and want to know what will happen, and I want to know what I did wrong above. I know all this sounds completely noob for this forum but I'm willing to learn, which is why I've been experimenting with rooting and flashing roms.
Thanks a lot, any help is appreciated.

[Q] Booting issues - help required

Hi all,
Tonight my XL decided to die on me, so to speak. What happened is the XL was just sitting on my computer desk doing nothing, I was on Facebook on my laptop, and then the XL suddenly made the boot animation sound, and I was quite confused. I tried pressing the lock button and it did nothing, so I left it for 5 minutes and still nothing had happened, so I took the battery out, put it back in and tried turning the phone on. It went to the boot animation and played the sound, but it just stayed at the boot animation, I left it for 10 minutes and still did nothing. I did a nandroid backup in CWM, did a total wipe, emptied cache, cleared dalvik and battery stats and tried restoring the rom. It restored successfully but when booted, it went to the boot animation and kept doing the same thing, staying there. The last thing I remember doing was installing Lookout from the Play Store. My phone was running Total Senseless v4.1.1 (WTF Edition) and had the LTX Kernel v0.7.7. It has an unlocked bootloader and is also S-OFF. I had the rom installed for around 10 days and it was working fine, OC too. If it matters, it was from Vodafone AU. I flashed Ice Cold Zombie v1.4 (I think) on it around April last year, but I had made a nandroid backup of the original rom and restored it a few months later due to battery issues. I then stayed on stock until I flashed the current rom. Any help would be greatly appreciated
If any other info is needed, I will try to provide it if possible.
Thankyou,

If wiping data didn't help getting rid of the bootloop, then restore your nandroid backup & flash the WTF rom again.. this way ur system will be wiped with a fresh install while keeping the data intact..
or just to make sure things are smooth with the device, you can try flashing any of the stock rooted ROMs from <- here ->
OK, I will try that, thankyou.
OK, I tried that and it didn't work, just stayed at boot screen again. When I get home I will try flashing a from from your link. Thanks

Xperia Z Boot problem

Hello, this is my first post here and ofcourse I have a problem...
So yesterday I was rooting my Xperia Z, unlocked the debug mode and was able to access the recovery mode a few times. So I flashed my device to 4.2 version with a computer then I copied the 4.2.2 .tft file and the Kernel into my phones internal memory, turned my phone off, turned it on again, turned on the recovery mode, did the "Wipe data/Factory reset", wiped the catche partition, wiped the Dalvik cache, formated the system, formated the data and the cache. So then I went to install the prerooted ROM but my phoned seemed not to find it in the internam memory so I selected to reboot my device and since then it is acting all weird...
So the phone then tried to reboot but freezed at the Sony logo, the battery was about 89% and the phone started heating like it was working on its max, the phones battery died after about 2 or 3 hours, so ofcourse I tried connecting it to my PC to try to charge it but it just started to boot loop, I could hear the computer making a notification sound that the device is connected and after a few seconts it just disconnects. It seems that the phone isnt charging at all because after leaving the phone to charge for the whole night with a regular charger the phones LED was still red and was giving me 3 blinks when I tried to turn the device on. I think that if I could to access the recovery mode again I would be able to fix everything from there on my own...
Any help to fix this problem is welcome, I can provide more information about the problem if there are some questions
P.S. I already tried to remove the microSIM and microSD cards

I noticed a really weird thing. It looks like it might be both technical and software problem. So earlyer I had the rooted 4.4.2 version but it started to bootloop when I turned on the camera, the device turned off when it was at about 60% battery. So I though to hell with this version and wiped everything again, installed the 4.4 version with flashtool but then the bootlooping started again, it went no further than the Sony logo, after about 2 hours of trying to get the damn thing on I took my fathers Galaxy S4 charger and pluged it into my phone, for my surprise the phone started charging and was displaying that battery icon in the middle of the screen, so now its about at 30% battery and trying to turn it on wont work, almost gets to the main screen and then instantly turns off. Ill try to charge it to about 80% battery and then try to turn it on. I suspect that the device thinks its battery is empty when it is actually at about 60%

[Q] cyanogenmod stuck in loading loop after working fine?

Everything worked fine for almost a whole year, then my tablet started acting strange last night. It got really bad this morning so i was trying to install a antivirus thinking that might help, but it wouldn't open. Reports of program failures were popping up like crazy, so i turned it off and back on about five minutes later. Now its been over an hour and its stuck in the cyanodenmod loading screen, its never taken this long.
Is there any program i can use on my laptop to wipe everything on my tablet and install another os? I'm not sure how it'd work seeing as how its stuck loading. Do i need to let the battery die? I really just want to plug it in and wipe the whole thing but i haven't a clue where to start.
Please help?
I took the back off and unhooked the colorful wire thing from it to turn it off, and put it back. It restarted fine and now I'm attempting to wipe everything on it. When i first pushed the erase all button it didn't do anything, then after trying a few more times it restarted to a "teamwin" something (have no idea what that is) and it restarted again, so far its back on the cyanogenmod loading loop again. (I'm a little amazed i even managed to root it in the first place, considering i didn't know what "os" stood for before that. I really need help with stuff like this.)
If i can get it back to the normal screen, is there any program i can use to reformat everything and like an alternative to cyanogenmod for the program?
Which CyanogenMod version are you running ? The teamwin that you saw when it booted up was the recovery you flashed to install custom ROMs like CyanogenMod. Make sure you have the latest recovery before anything . take a look here and let me know when your up to date and we can put you device back in working form

Note 5 stuck in loop while updating firmware at %24

Hi All,
Sorry if this is asked before. I have a new Note 5 unlocked. I turned it on yesterday and started using it. Late at night, its screen froze. I tried pressing Power+Volume_Down buttons to restart the phone. The phone restarted but the the screen was black. Only the notification light was on (blue).
In the morning, the light was still on and the phone was froze. I tried restarting it and I succeeded it. Then I realized the phone was very, I mean veeeery slow. By the time, a firmware update notification popped up. I believe it was Marsmallow update. I hit the yes button. The phone started the update and was stuck at %24. Then it restarted itself. The update process starts over and when it reaches %24, it starts over.
This happened before with my note 4 when I tried to root it. This phone is brand new and is not rooted. However, I transferred my Google profile but I did not select to download my previous apps. So, I don't think it is rooting issue but stucking at the same percentage makes me nervous.
I tried to get into recovery mode but the button combination does not work at all. So I can neither factory reset nor clear the cahe partition. When I press Volume_Down+Home+Power buttons, a custom rom download screen appears but Volume_Up+Home+Power buttons do not work at all. I cannot shut off the phone. It constantly restarts itself, starts the update, fails at %24 and starts the process over again.
What might be the problem? How can I fix this?
Regards
Hi,
Try flashing some stockfirmware via Odin (ideally something of the same android version i.e. lollipop/marshmallow). Once it's installed you should be able to access recovery from which I strongly recommend clearing your cache afterwards as you've already suggested. If you are not worried about loosing any data, then flash new firmware that is inclusive of BL/CP/CSC files too (each one has a category for such in Odin). With the latter, by all means flash marshmallow etc. :good:
Regards
