No popular 3.17.707 JB senseless roms?

For the past 2 months I've been checking and downloading roms like JellyBam hoping that in some new revision it will support 3.17.707 . Of course, without this support; the touch screen doesn't work at all, which sucks, because I love stock jellybean, and it's all i really want to use, though I'm still very happy with venom.
Is there a reason there's seemingly a lack of support from CM10 / senseless JB roms for the 3.17.707 Build? I've asked the dev's of the roms via PM/Facebook but never get a response. If I had have known that upgrading my stock rom before trying these JB roms would have ruined my possibility i wouldn't have done it
I realise there are 1 or 2 roms in the mix that meet my criteria, however from what I've read they are rudimentary and missing some basic functionalities (camera etc). I obviously want my phone working right, with the added benefit of a passionate dev. Also quite annoying JellyBam lists nowhere the Build it uses, so I Have to download and install it, to then have it fail each revision the past few months in sheer hope that it will be upgraded to the newer build.
Also, who's a moderator I can contact. I have these harsh account restrictions and fixing typos or making basic information edits requires me to wait 5 minutes in between.

not to be mean, but this topic has come up a few times. htc updated the firmware for the touchscreen in the ota. htc has yet to release the source code which, from what i hear, is against gpl. blame htc.
until they release sourcecode. desensed viper or the above mentioned rom are pretty much your only options.
i personally have tried downgrading my hboot in an attempt to work around but it did not work. i did not try running the original ruu though as my telus ruu no longer works after downgrading my hboot.
not sure if it would work but you could try relocking. use ruu, re-unlock then flash... never tried it so not sure. i also love stock android but alas thats life bud.

Thanks for filling me in on the situation, makes sense why there's limited support (though certainly hasn't stopped other roms). It's understandable, silly htc.
I've tried complete reset to stock, but afaik you can set everything back to out-of-the-box except for the Build... kind of blows, but i may be wrong, though I have made solid attempts to get past this issue.
Cheers for the input. I checked out RebelRom, might give it a whirl, though I'm quite tired of flashing roms back and forward, don't want to be disappointed again, and happy enough with venom; works well.

What method to "reset to stock" are you talking about? If you are talking about an RUU, there is no way to run one that has an older hboot version than what is currently installed on the phone. Downgrading the hboot might be an option, but I don't know if anyone on the 3.17 OTA has been able to do so successfully.
AFAIK, with things in their current state, there isn't much way to return anything of your phone to an "out of the box" condition.
---------- Post added at 09:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------
You are limited to ROMs based on 3.17 firmware, until someone figures out what was changed by the OTA to make the touchscreen not function on non-3.17 based ROMs. AOSP ROMs are not based on Sense builds, so therefore fall into the "non-3.17 based" category. As mentioned, source code will probably help the devs figure out this problem. Plus, some 2/3 of the users here are AT&T. So when that JB OTA eventually roles out, you might (probably) see more movement towards sorting the touch screen issue out.
You realize that ViperXL has an option to de-Sense in AROMA? It would still be 3.17 based, but simply replacing many HTC Sense components with AOSP-style ones. Its not true AOSP, but it might get you what you are looking for. Similar to RebelROM, which also looks very cool.

Roms that work with T-Mobile htc one s

I started this to see if anyone can list a few ROMs that work with T-Mobiles htc one s. Please help by listing the ROM you are on and by saying if the ROM has any issues; such as WiFi not working for example.

Cm10 nightly- works excellent but it takes WiFi about 5 mins to kick in after I toggle it. If any one knows how to fix it please reply to this post

I've been using $droyd$'s AOKP 4.2.2 ROM and the only issue is that as of right now, you can't record in 1080p. Other than that, its very smooth and fast.
Also if you were unaware before, wifi-calling doesn't work on any jelly bean rom.
Good luck!

WIFI issues are a nuance of this phone and the tmobile seems to be the most affected - it's different for each access point, user, phone, rom and firmware. In short you'll have to try it.
My tmobile worked with wifi on CM10 and CM10.1, it would not work with Viper until I downgraded my hboot (partial s-off enables some firmware write access) and flashed my wifi firmware. It get's interesting - I then put the old firmware back and the wifi still worked!!
Did you see the S-OFF thread? This will enable you to flash the radio firmware which will solve any problems.
Remember your WIFI channels - different countries use different range of channels and some access points 'helpfull' set the channel automaticlly. I have many devices that cannot cope with channel12.

Not trying to be a buzz kill here, but what's the purpose of this thread? I mean the Dev section is right over there, and the first page is flowing with fully working or close to fully working new ROMS.
Just saying.

I see what your saying. But honestly when you go through the a certain ROMs thread, they never say how WiFi doesn't work on T-Mobile phones. Or any of the problems Tmobiles users face.And who wants to go through a thread having to look for that one specific detail about a ROM whether or not to see if WiFi works. Also when looking through these ROM threads you find people that just like to say thank you (which there is nothing wrong with) that fill up the pages, making it harder to know if everything in that ROM is really going to work on your tmobile HTC one s, because people do search through comments to see what the users say. Therefore I made this thread for all T-Mobile users who want to post and say whether their ROM they are using works perfectly or if they are experiencing problems. And who wants to go through the process of flashing a new ROM without even knowing whether something like WiFi works. So yeah that's why i made this thread

I get that, ROM posts can be a little all over the place sometimes. I didn't understand at first; I'm one of the few T-Mo users with pretty much no problems. It also doesn't help that the ROM database that some guy did in the Dev section hasn't been updated for some time.

Thankyou

Ok thank you. Now i think im going to go Flash that rom. And also did you do anything specific to get your wifi working. and what Hboot are you on

If you are S-ON and have high HBOOT and want a Sense-based ROM with working WiFi, you were looking at TrickDroid 7 (TMOUS based), Unknown Retribution, and I think one more (Energy Blue, IIRC) that were based on recent updates. Since they were all based on the TMOUS ROM, everything should work without doing anything super special, including WiFi-calling. Virtuous Ville+ also had working WiFi, but no WiFi-calling. Recent CM 10.1 nightlies are working really well. At least, those are the ROMs I've used.

Wait are you saying that Recent cm10.1 nightlies have wifi working on our device. and by wifi working i mean it automatically turns on, and not just hangs and turns on later .

I haven't had any WiFi hangs.

I just started using Liquid Smooth. Pretty nice IMO. The only issues I've notcied were a bluetooth hang that fixed after a reboot, and Voice search keeps crashing.

Right now I'm on Viper 2.1.0 with the full firmware from the 3.16 WWE OTA -- I only made that jump because S-OFF makes it easy to switch without having to downgrade HBOOT. So HBOOT is 2.15 and Radio is 1.11.50.05.28. But I've just started using that and can't give you much in the way of impressions on WiFi stability yet. Just flashed it last night and didn't have any WiFi problems downloading my apps last night or weather checks this morning.
Before that I was using a recent CM 10.1 nightly on the TMOUS 2.35.531.10 firmware. So HBOOT 1.14 and 1.11t. I ran that firmware combination from shortly after its release until flashing Viper. ROMs in use were either CM 10.1 nightlies or Unknown Retribution (TMOUS 2.35 based).

noob question- What do you mean by TMOUS 2.35 based. And how does that affect the cm10.1 nightly

I mean ROMs that were built using T-Mobile US's 2.35 ROM as a base. Other Sense-based ROMs, like Viper, start with different ROMs as a base. The different Sense bases are part of the reason people run into WiFi problems when using ROMs originally created for other regions.
CM 10.1 has an entirely different heritage so it has its own ways of dealing with those issues.

I'm on hboot 1.09 and the wi-fi worked right from the start.
p.s. sorry for the slow reply

Gotta Tell you the Viper 2.1.0 rocks...its fast awesome battery life and its got working wifi...not wifi calling but just wifi in general...it honestly is the best sense ROM...I have tried CM 10, Virtuous Ville+, P.A.C Man and even the ICS ROMs and I gotta say the Venom team makes an awesome product...:laugh:

"[rom][S4][15FEB]Updated_4.2.2_AOKP-Working-video" seems to work great with TMOUS hboot 1.14, added the new camera (in the post) with photosphere, The only little bug I found is the bluetooth doesn't list station info on my car stereo. I saw a tearing fix using bubba kernel, but I'm just living with it for now. Everything else seems to work great!

I just flashed the LiquidSmooth JB ROM from Droyd and this thing is amazing.. Coming from a rooted Stock Sense there really is no comparison, I might give Viper a try but this is clearly gonna be my daily driver

Sense vs AOSP

I thought with 4.4 around the corner and 5.5 landing, I wanted to know what you guys thought of the two...
Personally, I'm an AOSP guy, living life on the bleeding edge. How about you guys?

They both have their merits. Personally I prefer aosp, it's a bit snappier, plus the advances in battery life have been pretty good recently.

I personally prefer the functionality of the Sense camera (which I use a good amount) and a few other more minor things on Sense. But as mentioned, AOSP just feels smoother and snappier. Both have their merits (again, as timmaaa mentioned), and its just a matter of personal preference and taste.

Same here, since Venom 4 landed,Ii stayed on it.Now, I started using Beanstalk w/ Torched kernel and I must say i'm pretty impress with the result.
Before Venom 4, I kept moving from one AOSP to another (the best experience I had was with Xylon, by far, kinda sad the project died...)

I used to be an AOSP guy untill I flashed a sense 5 ROM wich I don't know if its just me but I feel sense roms are snappier and the battery life its just beter

I'm so happy that we have these amazing devs that we get the luxury of choosing this type of thing

I used to love Sense.
I first tried out, and didn't like, either Cyanogenmod or MIUI. Then I loved ViperXL (Sense based).
After that I found Illusion ROM and haven't gone back to a Sense ROM since.
Other than Sense camera, I don't really miss anything from Sense.
I've noticed that AOSP ROMs "feel snappier" and my phone has stopped overheating since I flashed Illusion. My phone used to constantly overheat while on any Sense based ROM.

Viper is the the only reason I go to sense. But I am strictly aosp because the Roms are way more customizable and and I had a gnex before I got this phone.
Sent from my One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I personally have always preferred sense Roms. I really like the camera, as already mentioned above. However, I am leaning on trying some AOSP. Haven't run AOSP since Gingerbeast on my retired Inspire 4G. If any of the AOSP Roms for this device are half as good as that Rom I will definitely be swayed.

This is a tough one. I ran with CM 10.2 for a few weeks and liked it quite a bit once I resolved the issues. I kept looking at the CleanRom page over and over ("It's a Sense Rom, are you crazy, you left that to move on to AOSP???" I kept telling myself.)
Well....I made the jump and I love Sense 5 JB 4.2.2. Now I look longingly at the Beanstalk page every other day (what is wrong with me??)
Most of my best Nandroids are AOSP. But I tell you I love Sense and have spent more time driving a Sense Rom than anything else.
One thing I can say is for me is to use Sense I require Xposed framework for Sense toolbox, Greenify, and Advanced power menu. And the fact that I'm a sucker for transparency on the launcher dock. I feel the solid launcher dock looks dated (thanks AOSP.) Cosmetic pickiness!

For me, AOSP is not an option until they fix the Exchange client. It trashes the battery and sometimes data. Downloaded over 3 Gigs of data when I was asleep one night. I am looking forward to trying ExchangeServices 6.0 in KitKat to see if the problems have been fixed.

leybove from
The biggest difference I've seen with them is the business integration. For non-business users, it doesn't matter. But Sense's email client integrates with Exchange much better. Contact lookups, thread viewing, etc.. Other than that, it's a personal preference.

Im using a stock sense 5 rom with all the latest official goodies including full 2.15 firmware, radios, etc. I love it personally but i wanna try out aosp again, first time on this phone. Is there an aosp rom i can freely switch back and forth between sense nandroid and aosp nandroid without problems caused by the 2.15? if u can understand my question please let me know.

Well, I am currently on CleanRom 7 with S-Off and 2.15 and it is rock solid after two weeks now but I have several Nandroids built with AOSP Roms. The one that worked best was Beanstalk with the Boosted kernel. I had recurring issues with CM 10.2 (I think it needs a little longer to bake and it will be better.) 2.15 HBoot didn't seem to make much difference when I tried out several 4.3 Roms but if you are S-Off you can always flash back to a previous HBoot.

Flashing the hboot doesn't do the job correctly, all it does is change the hboot, it doesn't give you any of the other firmware components that are required. The correct way to do it is to run the 3.18 RUU which gives you the 2.14 as well as other firmware components (for aosp ROMs), or flash the 2.15 firmware package which gives you the 2.15 hboot as well as other more critical firmware components (for Sense 5 ROMs).
The common misconception that all that's required is the hboot is being fueled by posts like this.

You are absolutely right. I did run the appropriate RUU package not just an HBoot flash. Thanks for pointing that out. I can see how the verbage I used can lead to some poor decisions.

Im only asking can i freely switch between aosp and stock nandroids without issue

Some aosp ROMs are 2.15 compatible, some are not. The best way to find out is to check in the ROM thread of the ROM you want to flash.

[Q] Not sure which custom ROM to go with

Hi all,
I've been digging around this subforum and the unbranded M8 forum, I'm trying to figure out which custom ROM I want to go with but can't decide- they all have really neat features which I like.
I have an HTC One M8 Verizon, running an official/dev bootloader 1.55.605.2, unlocked bootloader, S-OFF and rooted, stock Android 4.4.2 Sense 6.0
I'm considering InsertCoin, but am not sure if it's compatible with my current setup, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727300
Also considering VenomOne, but again, not sure about the bootloader version, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705292
Any ideas or advice? Switching my bootloader is not something I really want to do at the moment, but I could if needed. The reason why I'd rather not switch it is because I have a bootloader which is signed by HTC & has full adb root/su

Since you accepted the OTA before you rooted and are on the latest build number you can run both of those fine.

Viper is known to be the king of customization. Everything can be changed and I mean everything. I've heard very nice things about insert coin too however. Its really up to you! Make a backup, and give em both a shot! You may also want to consider nV ROM I've heard nice things about that too. I myself am content on CleanROM as I said until aosp is more straightened out.

Awesome! Thank you, I'll look into all of these-
Quick question before I flash my stuff, is it possible to install ViperOne without changing my boot image? I'm looking inside the viper zip and there's a boot image there.

Try the newest GPE. I have been running it for over a day and that is the longest I have been off Viper. A few cosmetic issues but been very solid and is nice and light. About as close to the pure Google experience as you can get.
Oh yea, and it's the first 4.4.3 rom out for the M8 I believe.

Agree gpe ROM is great

I was on cleanrom and skyfall for a while using sensetoolbox to xustomize and was happy for a while but after I tried viper out I love it, so much to change and play with its great (I do love customization though) and running with faux kernel it has been superb

I like the Skyfall but always come back to Viper for the exchange mod. If they would add that to Skyfall I would stay there.

Why not try 'em all?
When you install a custom ROM and configure it to suit you with all your apps installed backup your apps, etc. and then reboot to recovery, backup your ROM and wipe and install the next ROM.
It'll take you a few days but you'll find the one you like and be able to switch anytime by rebooting into recovery and restoring the backup of the ROM you want.
FWIW, I was running CyanogenMod last night but had a problem connecting to the free WiFi in the restaurant so I rebooted to recovery, did a backup of CM, deleted old backup of CM and restored my Clean Rom back up to see if it would connect, it did and now I'm on Clean until CM gets a few more updates to fix WiFi, it took only a few minutes to switch.

[Q] lets make a list of ROMS for TeamWin Recovery Project 2.7.1.0(kitkat Bootloader))

Can we start a list of sorts with Roms that work with the new bootloader?? so far i read that Dhacker29 has a few test builds of cm11 . i have one installed right now and it has some bugs but works and is faster than my hd has ever been . i can run this game i like and before it couldnt play without lagging now it runs crazy fast . anyway thank you Dhacker29 for the recovery and rom. i was reading another site and someone mentioned another dev that had a test build out for the new recovery but i cant for the life of me find or remember who it was. also how can i tell if a rom will work without trying to install it. i read that the kernel had to be 3.5 and newer or some shshhsh. anyway thanks in advance to anyone that responds

I second this. Was actually thinking of suggesting the same thing. Might help keep people from flashing the JB kernel Roms and asking what they did wrong. Least maybe a bit more.

Can we start a list of sorts with Roms that work with the new bootloader?? so far i read that Dhacker29 has a few test builds of cm11 . i have one installed right now and it has some bugs but works and is faster than my hd has ever been . i can run this game i like and before it couldnt play without lagging now it runs crazy fast . anyway thank you Dhacker29 for the recovery and rom. i was reading another site and someone mentioned another dev that had a test build out for the new recovery but i cant for the life of me find or remember who it was. also how can i tell if a rom will work without trying to install it. i read that the kernel had to be 3.5 and newer or some shshhsh. anyway thanks in advance to anyone that responds

Any stable builds? Maybe some that use stock and then tweak it out.

i think you can install the stock files and then root and use a root app manager to remove all the bloatware from your phone. there is even a thread that tells you all the apps you can get rid of without jacking anything up. here you can check it out

after root you can download xposed installer and then download one of the customizing modules and you can then change your icons in the status bar. nav bar, even alter the way your toast messages come in . anything you can think change the color of your wifi and 4g icons or change them to something entirely diff . here check that out too . you probably already know all this already but just in case.

This is what I did. I was already running stock KK before rooting/unlocking. Still running it now but I removed a lot of crap. I'm looking forward to at least a few stable ROMs to try out on this phone, but I'm cool with this for now.

Does anyone know if the available KK-bootloader roms work on xt925? I know the ROM unification for a lot of devices have taken place. I am not sure this also happens with the new KK-bootlader, or if we are back on the old xt925 vs xt926 compatability devide...
Thanks in advance.

not sure . you can ask Dhacker29 he is the one that made the recovery I think. or you can post your question in this thread and you might get a better response

NexesqueKK 0.01: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...2-droid-nexesque-for-razr-hd-beta-442-builds/ I saw on DroidRZR.com that there was a test for the 3.4 kernel but my attempts to flash it failed

I thought I was decent at finding info online but i couldn't find any of those threads except for the pacman alpha but for the life of me I can't find where to download the alpha build I can find the nightly n the 4.3 but alas no alpha maybe its under one of the devs tabs instead of the pacman tab idk anyway thanks a lot for all the great info

Gummy rom tested on my xt925. Stuck at unlocked bootloader sign. I don't think xt925 is supported yet.

Yeah I don't know if any have xt925 support or not. Hopefully they will include them eventually.

Gummy Rom
I recently tried Gummy Rom for 3.4 kernel. It was pretty good, but had trouble with bluetooth freezing the phone and wifi dropout at times. It has great progress, and appreciate those who are working on it. :good:

I have installed dhacker's 4.4 cm build from 24/6. Happy to report that it boots - and so far, at least - works great. This is on an xt925! It's the first 4.4 bootloader rom other than moto that I have got to actually boot up on this phone.

I installed gummy and have been using the auto updater running nightlies right now I'm running 6-24 build . it seems like the the previous ver. had fixed the screen dimming issue but it seemed to come back on this ver. but rarely happens I haven't tied Bluetooth yet and the popping/static sound issue is still there but other than that I like the rom . thanks for

In droidrzr forums there is an Unofficial Omni Rom for kitkat bootloader..
btw, for xt925, dhacker says that we only need the new bootloader (maybe installing the leaked soak test from France we can use the newest roms)
