Here I am with a wonderful device, yet history seems to be passing me by.
I do not know a lot about rom and firmware, but as it seems the phone is a cheaper copy of the M8.
And though you can find so many roms for the M8 and lots and lots of updates with all so many choices. it seems we are stuck with the E8 to one rom or two.
I have M8sw and I installed the Indian TWRP backup rom 4.4.2, every one else has the 4.4.4 or even 5.
every one has options except the E8 people are almost optionless
please Developers
Help us out here.

It doesnt help if you cry. I tried asking on the m8 forums.
IT.DOES.NOT.HELP.
I was told to start the development if I could. But considering the amount of time i have left for daily activities, this looks unlikely.
check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/developer-support-lack-thereof-htc-one-t2926091/
At least you are not alone with your M8sw.
I have the M8Sn and I think I'm the only one with this model here.
As I am not able to do the ROMs myself, I think I am stuck to 4.4.2 for good.
Can't find any announcement for an upgrade to lollipop for my model... :crying:

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.
PHP:
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

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!

Hi Team,
Coming from a Nexus 4 . I am about to buy the Oneplus ( chinese Variant ) preloaded with CM11s . Reason for buying this variant is that the international version is no where to be found in the country. Before picking up the phone i have a few question
1-) Besides the OS are there any other hardware level changes in amongst the two variants ?
2-) Will the preloaded CM11 get OTAs ?
3-) Will i be able to flash the custom roms which are for the international version on the chinese variant ? ( this is a big concern )
4-) How would you rate the phone overall out of 10 ( just for fun )
This has been asked a few time already but here goes:
1.) Besides the "Cyanogenmod" branding on the back of the device and a slight variation of supported LTE bands there are NO hardware differences.
2.) There is no reason it shouldn't,mine did, came with CM11s installed on a Chinese variant,and had an OTA update as soon as i turned it on.
3.) YES absolutely
4.) 9.0 - 9.5 IMO
PS: Depending on where you reside you might just wanna look into the LTE bands situation to ensure the device will work with your carrier.
Hope that help.

Hello guys. I want to ask can we flash a M8 rom to E8?
They both have the same hardwares on them. So is it possible?

No. Not without certain tweaks anyway, because their model numbers etc differ. And also the camera module is different. They don't have exactly similar hardware.

Yeeah you are right. But the developers can build the roms based on M8 easily right?

I'm not a developer to comment on that. But yes I guess so. Only problem is we don't have many developers for this phone due to it's small reach.

Do you know, what needs to be adjusted?
I would love to see a custom rom for my E8 (M8Sn) and cannot find anyone who is able to help me.
It is the singleSIM version from Germany.

Unfortunately I don't. There are a few people on our forums here, CaptainThrowback and DutchDanny. They are familiar with development. Try asking them. Or contact a dev from M8 forums and ask instead, if they are free enough, they might guide you.

Hey guys
My friend just bought a new Huawei Mate 7 Gold yesterday and I checked the Android version and it says 4.4.2 Kit-Kat. He'd like to update it to Lollipop and since I have been doing such things for years on Samsung and HTC devices I thought I should help him out by checking the forum first. I found a helpful article about updating it to Lollipop OTA, however it is in German and the translation is terrible, so can anyone point me in the right direction?
As I said, the device is brand new and still has 4.4.2 unmodified Kit-Kat on it.
This is the article I am talking about: http://www.huaweiblog.de/huawei/huawei-mate-7-lollipop-update-download/
Thanks guys!
There's a thread dedicated to this in the general section
Thanks for you reply and for pointing me out to the right thread. From what I've read, it seems as though the Lollipop update is quite unstable nowadays and I should hold off till it's official, correct? I don't want my friend to go through a hassle because of it since he is not very tech-savvy.

I have installed lollipop 5.1.1 beta and its quite good but there's still many bugs. Maybe it is better to wait the official release.
I agree. If your friend is not tech savvy, hold first and wait for official release
It's usable as a daily driver, but no, not as stable as 4.4.2.
Generic overview:
-random reboots, not extremely frequent but they happen.
-some memory issues compared to 4.4.2
-a bit less battery
-some options not present
Hi, someone knows when will be release the official version of lollipop? No betas

Nope, and tbh i'm not extremely eager to run lollipop on most phones right now... Google screwed up pretty bad on this major version.

I second that. While material design is nice to look at, the memory leak and battery drain are causing issues in some lollipop phones

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
