Greetings everybody! I just purchased a refurb M8 (stupid duo cam isnt working, but I'm not here for that) and noticed the lack of forums for CM13 support. I had a rezound many many years ago and back then there was a "dont want sense, dont get an HTC" sort of mentality. Is this still true? I want to try CM13 on it and can't find a certain link to a download. Do the nighties on the CM site work for all carrier variants, and generally are there problems on the device? Thanks in advance.
I think the GSM phones work better with CM13. Verizon seems to always be a little difficult. I think CM13 only has one unified build.
CM13 Builds
You can use CM13 on a Verizon M8, but my experience is that you'll lose 4G LTE unless you flash CM13, flash stock recovery, then factory reset. From there you can do whatever (including reflash a custom recovery). I'm currently using a stock ROM because CM13 was too buggy.
Any other major problems? Thanks for the feedback

CM13 user here, just wanted to chime in and say I've had basically 0 issues with it on the VZW M8 over the past several months. 4G works perfectly fine, it's nice and clean, just follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...m-cyanogenmod-13-0-nightlies-htc-one-t3256696
Every few weeks someone manages to work a minor bug into the nightlies (that's why they exist), but they are usually patched next day or overcome by simply reverting a day and waiting for a quick fix.
I can neither confirm nor deny the need to flash/revert/reset for 4G because this is something I already needed to do a while back for a completely different GPE ROM, but I didn't have any 4G issues when I switched to CM. I consider it an inevitable step when initially starting down the ROM path. Just back up whatever's important and go for it

Figured I would start a thread for us Canadian I337 S4 owners, since our devices come bootloader unlocked and we are able to load the experimental ROMs at this time.
So far, I've rooted and loaded CWM Touch recovery via ROM Manager. About to install CM now and give it a spin. I'll be back with my findings after a bit of playing around.

I would be curious to know if the ghosting and black crush issues are the same on CM10 as on the stock since some people say it's a software issue while others contend it's the screen itself. Also, I'm pretty jealous that you Canadian SIV owners get to try this stuff out already.

No ghosting here! And man, I forgot how fast and smooth AOSP is. Can't wait until this thing hits stable status.
Wifi doesn't work on mine. Also, hangs during GAPPS 'Welcome' process, using goo.im's 10.1 gapps.
CM10 jfleatt Nightly 20130612 - WIFI Issue
Anyone experiencing Wifi issues after upgrading to last nights nightly build on the Samsung Galaxy S4 on ATT? May have to revert to 20130610 or 09...
Thoughts?
I've been asking around a lot about this and really haven't gotten anywhere. Jist of it is that when using AT&T LG G3 with a T-Mobile sim running AOSP roms i get kernel panics while using LTE. It's fine and dandy with stock based roms. I don't like stock so please don't tell me to do that. Here is a last-kmsg I've pulled after my latest kernel panic. I mainly run Androiduser00110001 cm12. EVERY AOSP rom causes it but I've found when i run his 12.11 build they come far and few. Like once or twice a day. Compared to every time i start using data otherwise. I asked androiduser00110001 what was different about that build but still haven't heard back from him don't plan on it either he's a very busy dev. It's bearable now with this build. If i flash a newer one I'm screwed. I've tried. I've tried every AOSP rom for our device. Please don't tell me to get a T-Mobile variant or get att service please. Some people here have been very dickish about it. Not going to mention any names. I'm just looking to see if anyone can look into the logs i post here. One more thing, this does not happen with att sim. Thank you.
I can't offer you much help, but I can tell you that my D850 unlocked and being used on T-Mobile doesn't have this problem. One issue I encountered with one of the cm12 based roms was it would keep losing the APNs.
I can only suggest doing an Advanced wipe in twrp on everything except your external Sd card and starting from scratch.
First of all, this issue isn't just gonna get fixed by flashing a Sense-based ROM, then going back to CM12. This goes deeper than that...it seems to be working fine for guys running the same ROM with TMO and other carriers.
What does anyone know about GPS not being able to communicate with GPS satellites when running most CM12 ROMs with Verizon's 4.4.4 firmware on your M8? Could this be kernel related? Is it that Verizon 4.4.4 firmware (CDMA) is conflicting with something? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!
same issue on Sprint m8

I just flased to CM 12 Nightlies and my GPS lost as well. The GPS worked great on stock kit Kat.

That does fix the issue for a lot of people and is recommended across devices when trying to get a GPS lock on an aosp Rom (example: vzw note 2) also, some people have to do it a couple times before it works. If it still isn't working for you you can try a clean flash to stock sense get the lock etc, and then copy gps.conf from /system/etc, restore your bAckup of cm12 and paste it in the same place (back up the original first), set perms to 644, reboot and hope for the best

Just so I said it, I've got the same issue on the sprint version.
Lost GPS
I did as you suggested and tried Skyfire. The gps worked But no service or mobile data (waa waa). I made a copy of the ect/gps file and replaced it once I flashed back CM 12. Un fortunatly that didn't do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion though.
Hello everyone, its been a very long time since I regularly flashed custom ROMs on my HTC EVO. Years! Seems that everything has changed since those days, anyway I'm having trouble with mobile data on each custom ROM that I flash. After booting and going into the Google setup wizard I can't seem to connect to a cellular network. If anyone has any ideas it would be a great help. I'm currently running Team UB's unofficial CM 12 5.1.1
Again any help would be greatly appreciated. And if this post is in the incorrect section I'm sorry!
Have you used Odin to go back to stock? Just to see if it does it in a factory state.
Actually found one CM12 based ROM that I do get mobile data, but just this one. Haven't tried reverting back to stock yet. May just be a problem with MY phone as others have told me theirs runs fine on the same ROM.
Yea, it's possible that it's hardware related
I have the issue too. Mobile data doesn't work on 2 different s5's
I'm guessing that you don't have LTE in your area?
Correct, no LTE here. Is that the problem?
Yepperz. I told the devs. I think they may be looking into it.
Roger that. Thanks. I guess I'll stick with what I got for now then.
There any customs we can use that don't have this problem?

Are we ever going to get an official cyanogenmod for E8?
This device appears to be ignored by its own manufacturers, I bought mine unlocked from amazon but it hasn't gotten any updates. I've unlocked bootloader thanks to guides in here and was able to root it successfully.
Now what? I'm still stuck with a sense 6 device and a 4.4.2 kitkat, is it possible to even attempt to install the cyanogenmod made for M8?
The reason I'm doing this is to get LTE with T-Mobile and a decent android experience with cyanogenmod.
I have just put CM 12.1 lollipop on my Sprint HTC one e8. I put on the m8 build and it runs beautifully... Except for one little detail. I can't get it to connect to my phone service. So, no texting or calls at this point. I was running it for a few hours before I realised that. I'm researching now how to fix this issue. I hope I can find something and update it for you. Cheers!
Hello! I'm going to try this too. I've been running 4.4 but it's just went crap on me so I have to either reload a ROM that's very old or go for something new. Mines a m8sw.

I used the one for the m8, but it didn't have cell connectivity so no phone or SMS/MMS. I tried flashing the radio but that didn't work so I went back to stock. If you have any luck getting the phone to work with that build, I'd love to hear about how you did it so I could try. I really want CM!

I actually didn't get around to checking the camera. I wish I had. I went back to stock for now because I needed to be able to make calls.
try to ask developers to help your issue
i tried to post many requests in m8 section but no answer ...
