[Q] Was it a bad choice E8

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:

Did you flash E8 kernel after flash that Rom?

no, the ROM is based on 5.0.1 and the original STOCK is based on 4.4.2

If that....
I have no idea

thank you anyway

I think flashing a (boot.img) of an E8 custom rom after flashing Skydragon could solve the problem!

ok thank you, then I have to wait until I will found a custom rom for E8

Hi Greg,
I'm not sure, but I think this ROM is only for the Asian version of the E8 with dualsim. I bought it in Germany, but I will try to extract the boot.img of this version of ROM.

hi greg,
I think bindroid isn't a ROM for the german version of the HTC One E8. I extracted boot.img out of this ROM and flashed after installing Skydragon for M8 without success.
Any other ideas?

Oh ok.. Tough luck then.
Maybe @DutchDanny can have a look and see if anything can be reworked to make it boot..

If your E8 is Dual Sim, BinDroid will work on it
ALL E8 boot.img for dualsims will work on any dualsim
Don't try M8 boot.img, we have a better version of the Snapdragon then the m8

Hi DutchDanny,
no, I do not have the dual sim E8, I have the german version of the E8 with single slim.

[Q] Is it possible for M8 rom be used on E8?

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?

Nope that will not work in the way u r expecting
As some porting needs to be done...
Like camera modules etc..
So no it won't work!!

BlackVictor ported ROMS for HTC One E8

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

2. i also cannot read & cannot understand russian.
3. but i downloaded those roms by BlackVictor. and tested ALL of them one by one on my e8 single sim. some worked, some didnt.
4. right now, i am using BlackVictor SkyDragon ported ROM with the patch for single sim and it works flawlessly. no problem at all so far.
5. you have to S-Off your device to be able to unlock everything and flash custom ROMs like a boss.
cheers!

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.
