Hi Guys
Last night I've got my HTC one E8 dual sim unicom version and yeah it's full of chinese apps and reminds me a lot of the first htc one m7 dual sim I bought and struggled to use it
Rooted and twrp recovery is installed.
Now I've used social network plugins of facebook, twitter, instragram and now all of them works in blinkfeed luncher however twitter has some issues ( Edit: twitter works fine ).
Ideally if there was any custom rom for it it would be easier for me to swap the files and do more investigations.
Since there is an international version of htc m8 which support dual sim I'm thinking to port it to E8 BUT I need at least the system dump or a custom rom of the former. I have a 100% certainity that the port would work nicely.
Anybody is willing to help ?!
Maybe you can use the files on htcdev.com?

Thanks but this isn't what I want.
I found a rom let's hope it will be handy.

k
Successful but
If anybody interested !
I've used M8 dual sim system files on my E8 and it worked nicely except for the camera which I know why wouldn't it work.
social networks and google apps works nicely but still blinkfeed is till showing chinese contents for the news and it's probably due to cid thingy.
anybody has any Idea ??

I guess that you have seen this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-e8/general/blinkfeed-english-topics-t2827703
btw in few days I will get my HTC E8
Hmmmmmmmmm
I guess I made a progress !!!!!!!!!!!!
So let's cut it short
Do these at your own risk
1- Have an HTC one E8 dual sim (China Unicom version).
2- Have faith, a lot of faith.
3- Unlock the bootloader and flash the twrp recovery + SuperSU.
4- S-off using the paid Sunshine (Firewater won't work).
5- Super CID your device.
Hmmmmm
Will it work ?! of course yes and you will enjoy the blink feed in your language
Hmmmmm
Still need other social networks to work, right ?!
I'll do my best to build the rom for you if you are ready to help me
Good luck.
It's Interesting
I want to help you but my knowedge is not enough
If you want a tester, im ready
OK: Moment of truth
Bad news :
I've tried to cook a rom for our E8 dual sim using dsidxa and although I have some success in doing that. The rom did not boot and always reboot into fastboot
If I can just lay my hand on any custom rom for either M8 or E8 dual sim, my porting will be easier !
Good News :
Currently I have almost flawlessly working WWE (Honestly Multi language ) rom with camera working

Great works I believe you can do that
Finally
Custom rom is done
No issues so far.
Plan :
1- Deodexed.
2- Zipalligned.
3- Extra goodies

Today, i found a TWRP backup from M8 dualsim (M8_DUGL). i tried to restore that one to my E8.
And boom, It booted with no error.
But It have some issues:
+ Camera doesnt work.
+ Mic (for call) doesnt work (You can hear caller voice but they dont hear your voice)
+ Blinkfeed still Chine source (But i'm not sure, because in my University, internet was block by proxy server).
@Oweida: can you help me to solve that issues?? thanks in advance.
I am so excited. Cant wait to try custom rom. I am so annoy with cannot use blinkfeed with my E8. After custom rom is released, E8 would be my perfect phone.

It's ready but I'm just adding fine touches and deodexing it however you should be knowing by now that you need to unlock your bootloader, gain s-off using sunshine.apk and finally superCID your device otherwise no point of trying any custom rom to get rid of chinese blinkfeed content !
No. Just system.

You can get Blinkfeed in the language of your choice without flashing the ROM as shown here
Although it would be nice to run a true multilanguage and debloated ROM.
@Oweida: are you sure you didn't modify anything to get the camera working? Since it's a different camera then the M8 one would expect different drivers are needed?
@lonelydra: can you provide a link to the TWRP backup of the M8 Dual Sim?
Yes!

Hello guys!
I am new to android world.I just bought this E8 from China and its the China Unicom version of E8 known as M8SW.There are many chinese apps on the phone and also it doesnt let me take cloud backup of the device as it asks for some chinese weibo account to sign in or create new account.The same phone has been launched in India and some other countries with the model code M8SD.
Sorry for my lack of knowledge,I am just curious can i flash indian or any other country rom like singapore on it which supports english as main default language.I dont wanna install custom rom on my phone and somehow wanna stay with stock rom but from some other country.
Also if i flash some other country rom on it would it be a problem with frquencies my current rom supports and frequencies what indian rom supports.i mean i dont want any hardware issue after i flash indian rom on to my e8.
After i flash indian rom would the ota updates happen or no.
Finally where I can get Indian stock rom for e8.
Thanks in advance.

Hello, i own also a HTC ONE E8 DUAL SIM (M8SW) with the China ROM on it. This ROM has not the Possibility to UPDATE the Android, is missing this Point in the options Menu. Could you tell me someone where ich can Download another Country ROM who works this OTA function?? Maybe INDIAN oder better another EUROPEAN version. SOMEONE WHO CAN HELP HERE?
THANKS
I would say you have to unlock bootloader (1), go s-off (2), change CID (3), flash international stock ROM and possibly lock the bootloader to get OTA updates. How it's done is explained in several threads here.
One of my own posts containing information on 1, 2 & 3:
I finaly managed to get dutch feeds in Blinkfeed.
What I did:
1. unlock the phone (see www.htcdev.com)
2. flash TWRP and rooted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-...luded-t2819571)
3. gain s-off (http://theroot.ninja/)
4. write Super CID (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2317536)
5. modify build.prop (you can find build.prop in "/system"). Set ro.product.locale.language=nl & ro.product.locale.region=NL (I found these records twice in build.prop and I changed both)
6. go to play store, remove Blinkfeed and then reinstall Blinkfeed.
I now have local news and/or feeds in dutch on my HTC One E8 (m8sw), you can probably get them in any language you like.

thanks for the information
i have try to change the ro.product.language and region to en GB , but after reboot, it resumed to zh, CN ....
i just want to change the blinkfeed to hk or tw source..... any idea? ^_^
I'm pretty sure that you are still s-on then...
S-on prevents you from making changes to system.

i try firewater (free) but fail ... :crying: , anyway thank for your sharing :good:
any success?
Hello.. any success? I am also in same situation.. have M8SW, and need other country ROM.
So I can get local blinkfeed, and language support. Though I have changed language to English, some pop-ups still come in Chinese.. guess system related messages.. and default market is not google play, but gives option of either HTC market place /game center.. when I get reminders about app updates. So when I open Google play and then update apps from menu, it works fine.
it seems that it worked on my htc one e8 m8sw with lollypop

Hi guy, I have htc one e8 single sim "mec_ul". Currently I have ICE ROM Installed, but seems a camera flash light and nfc are crashed. I'm looking for once stable ROM. I had TWRP 3.0.2 istalled and ICE rom on Android 6.0.1 SENSE 8.
I'd tried many ROM but ervery rom that I'd tried was not work for stable e.g camera issued. I found VIPER ONE M8 ROM on XDA, I has downloaded into sdcard but when I uses TWRP to Install it maybe zip file of ViperOneM8 corrupt! How to install ViperOne for My htc one E8 single sim? please help me. Thanks so much.
Is it possible for M8 rom to be used on E8 since the only difference between these two is the build quality? Like is there some way the rom will detect that its a E8 and fail to install?

So no it won't work!!

hi all,
1. sorry if this has been discussed.
2. there are some e8 roms, ported from m8 to e8 by BlackVictor.
3. These including ViperOne, MaximusHD, SoulROM, & SkyDragon.
4. Unfortunately, most are for e8 dual sim variant.
5. Any one of you have tested these ROMs? What is your experience with them?
6. You can find these ROMS at :
4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=598273&st=0#entry33786133
Thank you
I'll try the skydragon rom today. Will get back to you as soon as posssible..
Hope all goes well.
Well tried the sky dragon rom and the viper rom... Sky dragon gives signal in second sim only while viper doesn't give a signal at all..
I'm on m8sd . Anybody have any solutions?

@alanjolly123
for skydragon, if you are using e8 single sim, you must install this patch. i am using skydragon rom on my m8sx single sim and it works perfect.

could you please how you use it
and what should i do step by step
becuase sky dragon is really good rom i mean this version SkyDragon | Sense 7 MarshMallow | v1.6.5 | 6.12.1540.4
I am downloading SkyDragon. I did not know anything about this roms.
SkyDragon Rom is not for HTC ONE E8. My phone is in hboot loop.
@melquisedec
1. Yes. Originally, SkyDragon ROM is only for M8.
2. However, BlackVictor did some modification & ported it to E8. That's why this topic is specifically for BlackVictor's ported ROM for M8 to E8.
3. You have to download the ported ROMS for E8 from the link I gave in the 1st post.
4. If you download the ROMs from their official websites, they are not for E8. They are unmodified ROMS for M8.
Please read & understand carefully to avoid bricking your device.
thank you

I use M8Sn Single SIM variant. Installed the ROM and used the Patch, stuck at HTC screen and can only access to power menu.
Hold LONG VolUp+Power to turn of when stuck.Then later try to get into recovery VolDown+Power (I can't believe that is no way to get into bootloader or RECOVERY - can't be bricked) Take "out" (using winrar) from zip file with ROM boot.img and flash it.That can help - I had like that with ViperOne for M7 and it helps. Good luck man. BTW - I am not taking any responsibility if something bad happen.

Restart several times, factory reset or wipe cache nd dalvik from recovery..Either of them will work.I've tried and once you get past the screen there won't be any problems.
Btw anybody know how to get signal on these roms for m8sd Indian version?
Have asked a number of times,but to no avail..!

Well, I passed the screen on all roms that have mentiones in this thread. Each and every one of them had data problem, I couldn't activate mobile data, or I could activate and it says "Disconnected". I tried everything, like changing APN manually and flashing radio etc., no luck.
I had flash SkyDragon Rom for E8 (m8sx)
the system ui is very smooth . However,i feel that the battery had a little drained
I have a question , the funnction " ok google" does not use
I also had flashed ViperOne e8 . it was very smooth.
the plug (xopsed+ intelli3g ) i also has installed. The battery had consumed was very well.

Hi,
I have HTC U11 dual SIM europe.
and have tested the Viper rom and the MaximusHD all work fine and also the Leedroid roms work very well.
Althoug I found a problem that my phone was always awake with the process A800000.ssusb (the thing cames and goes randomly)
found that the only rom for now that doesnt have this problem for me is the MaximusHD 3.1.0
maybe its a problem only with my phone.
anyway the 3 roms I indicated will work fine. Please notice that you must first be on Oreo 8.0.
good luck
