Hello guys,i live in Greece Europe..still waiting for my Dna.....it will arrive in thursday here...as a veteran of HTC Devices,i used viper/venom rom in all of them.....do you know if there is any development plans or progress about a viper rom for our phone..with that perfect tweaks...etc?

is this rom something similar to viper?as the developer is lead developer of viper lte roms? rom has tweaks?or something like viper hub?waiting for a viper/venom official release not a similar rom...i'm gonna try it though when i get my hands on dna

the viper roms are rarely "identical" to one another, simply because they use different base roms for the respective phones...although the phones that use "ports" rather than the native roms are generally closer (the wvga phones for example)
however the tweak packages are very close to each other (some differences per phone largely based on some hardware features that one htc phone has that another may not) and each phone has its own "venom hub" with themes/mods/icon packs made for that phone or ones with similar resolutions
initially our phone may have less status bar/rosie/icon themes available when we eventually (i have no eta as we havent actually started work yet) do release, since there has never been a 1080p htc phone before....most existing themes/customizations from ics do work on jellybean...but they are meant for qHD, wvga, or HD (we are Full HD res) res phones
there wont be a "viper dna info thread" or anything like that...usually i just post stuff in whatever existing rom thread i have with updates/info (in this case UKB) just cuz its already a thread i have at the time
currently the plan is for Virus and myself to work directly on viperDNA and hopefully get some dna themers involved as well, and potentially others who can help in various ways (beta testing, etc)

many many thanks for infos..you can count me as a beta tester...as i spend a lot of hours in front of phone.....i am a newbie on development and theming..but want to start theming....i have contact jerrytan93 who is a great themer at htc sensation...i have a little knowledge...with some help maybe i can start theming!!!the most difficult think will be the resize of things for 1080p resolution

I think most of the important bits were already in English; it seems like a rumor that an official Jelly Bean update will be released.
I'm pretty much sticking with Cyanogenmod, but I'm curious. Will the release of official JB help make CM more stable for us as far as the camera focusing goes and other little quirks there may be?

A JB release would be beneficial in a number of ways to CM:
1) A different set of camera proprietary files that might resolve camcorder focus issues
2) Release of 3.4 kernel source (albeit, with a 6month delay after the OTA unless HTC bows to our pestering)
3) and with a 3.4 kernel, no more dependence on a proprietary file that resulted in a DMCA takedown and loss of nightlies
With that said, I have zero faith in the OP's rumor link. I think football's original posting about fireball getting JB (which has been taken down since he doesn't share this information any more) is more credible. I still have hope.

if theres a sense 4+ jellybean release i will do a viper update for it
m0narx has not started on sense5 stuff yet, so i cant comment on a sense5 viper for the inc4g as of now....
but at the least id make a modified stock sense5 rom for those that want basic mods added back in (id have to make one for my wife anyway, cuz she would freak out that stuff was missing on her phone)

@nitsuj: on a sidenote ... any chance of a "color-inverted settings app"? so that the whole settings pages are with _white fonts on black background_ (like i was used to with my gf's HTC pyramid) -> black fonts on white background do suck more batt life :cyclops:

optimize performance and so on, I see a lot of optimization of the official kernel EVO 4G LTE network, but our phone no This aspect of the resource Oh, and FM radio I transplant HTC J ROM, but there is no FM firball kernel related drive, FM can open, but not to listen to

Good Morning to you all!
Sorry if this has already been posted but I couldn't find much of anything on this topic. Does a "Google Edition" Rom exist for the EVO 4G LTE? I know we have the AOSP and AOKP roms but this is something I've wanted to ask for a while. I love the pure Google experience and I just have to wait about a year until i can upgrade to a new phone like a Nexus.
Thank you again for taking the the time to read this and for all the awesome work all you Developers put in for making this awesome phone even better.

No. But the AOSP ROMs we have work fine. What's wrong with flashing one of them? They are essentially the same thing, except, well, better .

I'm with you on that one. Not sure why anyone with knowledge of rooting (who doesn't mind a voided warranty) would want to buy a GE phone.

I don't have any problem with any AOSP Rom other than signal and connectivity issues. But its really just curiosity for me and I'm a big fan of Google so the idea of having a Google Editon EVO sounds cool to me.

Well it won't happen.

Imagine having a GE ROM that had added functionality and customizations. Then, go download one of our CM/AOKP/DU ROMs. - imagination realized.
Or, put another way, take one of our AOSP ROMs, strip away functionality and customization, and you have a GE ROM.
Is that what you're looking for?

What do you think would be a good solid AOSP Rom to either behave like a GE Rom or better I've only tried the CM Rom and the Xlyon Rom back and forth and couldn't get the feel I was looking for.

You could always try Evervolv. That's probably the closest to AOSP, that is, with the least customization.

Not true. Not trying to insult any devs in any way, but AOSP roms for anything other than a Nexus are hacked together using core binaries from other devices when necessary. There is never such a thing as a bug free AOSP Rom, except for a Google device and/or Google edition.
The Google edition roms on the other hand, were compiled by HTC for a device that they know in and out. Unfortunately, this is one of those times when "the vendor knows best", simply because of sheer resources and hardware documentation.
It would be possible to port the GE roms if you guys ported the GPE kernel and used that to port the rom, like Zarboz and newtoroot did for the DNA.

I can't say.
For the DNA it was extremely simple (but zarboz is a boss so he would've gotten it anyway) since the two devices are almost identical (One and DNA).
But the fact that you guys have a 3.4.x official HTC kernel should help.

You would be surprised at what shortcuts OEMs take too.
Just because they have the resources doesn't necessarily mean it's cost effective, or that their software engineers have the time, to redo everything from scratch for each device. It's usually much easier to make it for one and then adapt that copy for use on other devices. I actually found this site thanks to htc's sloppy implementation of hdmi on the original evo. According to them it was impossible to fix until Toastcfh and Netarchy did just that and rewrote their kernel from scratch (iirc).
If you think about it, this site probably wouldn't even exist if OEMs made good software. They often do have access to proprietary drivers and documentation, but most of that is slowly getting open sourced anyway.
That type of reasoning is a fallacy because more often then not OEMs are just too plain cheap to do things properly. They just need to hit their deadlines. So your only real options are to either buy a nexus device, or invest a little time in helping fix any issues that you may find.
Someone please correct me if I'm thinking of the wrong device, but I believe it was the htc TyTN2 where htc didn't even bother to include a fully functional display driver because they didn't want to pay the license for it.

Have you ever used one of the IRC builds of cm10 or cm10.1? They're more stable and are more feature rich than the stock ROM that shipped with this device or any of the updates that they were gracious enough to let sense users download over the air. The 3.0 kernel was seriously stable, but the 3.4 kernel is (nearly as) stable _and_ leaves more RAM for your silly animation effects and whatever. It's based on the reference kernel for the chip set, if I'm not making an arse of myself. So pick a build. I know 1/16 was an awesome cm10, and like I said in another topic I had 191 hours uptime on the 7/23 cm10.1 before I rebooted to rule out the ROM when I was having data issues(it was the network) </rant>

Not saying they are perfect and neither am I taking sides. But the fact of the matter is that AOSP is ported using binaries made for other devices and other hacks and so is nearly impossible to make it 100% compared to vanilla nexus roms. Issues are inevitable. And those same exact shortcuts you stated apply to and are no exception with AOSP ports like CM or evervolv. They also commonize (not a word, I know) as much as possible. They group devices like all the d2 and all the jflte, or even by processor like s4_common, etc under one common branch to make it easier for themselves to maintain.
I know I'm not gonna win here because of several things, namely being that I'm taking the "wrong" stance from the majority's point of view. But I just felt adding my 0.02 would help with the OP's original question.

It's not accurate to say the binaries are made for other devices when the devices are all basically the same. The MSM8960, for example, has it's own binaries, but the same chip is used in a range of devices from the Evo LTE, Blackberry Z10, One X (LTE), One XL, Windows Phone 8X, LG Mach, Moto Droid Razr M, Droid Razr, Razr Max, Atrix HD, Incredible HD, Xperia GX TL SX & V, Galaxy S III... the list goes on
The binaries all of those devices use were developed for the Qualcomm devkit I've linked below.
When you're working with a sense ROM versus an AOSP ROM there are many differences in not only appearance but the framework as well, but once you start getting down to the kernel level the hardware is all basically the same. Where we have the advantage over OEMs is that most companies know it's counterproductive and a waste of money to go after enthusiasts who borrow their binaries from one device to use on something else. If an OEM did that they would be sued in a heartbeat.
https://developer.qualcomm.com/mobile-development/development-devices/snapdragon-s4-msm8960-mdps
edit: probably actually this instead, but same difference: http://shop.intrinsyc.com/products/dragonboard-members-only
To digress back to the OP's original question though, the google edition One is basically just the one with AOSP on it. If you can find a pure AOSP ROM it'll be the exact same thing.
Thanks for the info I'm really thinking of seeing if i can try and make my own ROM and plus I've always wanted to do so hopefully it all goes well. I just don't wanna brick my phone in the process hahaha. Do you guys think trying to build off of the HTC One GE rom and convert it over to the EVO or use an EVO based AOSP ROM? Thanks again for all the help.

Why don't you just build AOSP? You can use the CM kernel and pull the relevant vendor files from an existing AOSP ROM (or find an up-to-date github with them).
That way you don't have to worry about having the extra customizations, but you'll still have a kernel built from Qualcomm source along with the ROM.

I have tried a lot of ROMs and I find these devs do a much better job than stock ROMs yes you have some bugs in some but the always work them out cudos to the devs I'm just glad they still support my device and having gabe up on it
I see Scott posted his Hyperdrive ROM over on the HTC Verizon One Development thread. Wondering if that could easily be ported to the DNA using the porting tool found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2196491and a 4.2.2 Sense 5 base Rom like newts?
I loved Hyperdrive ROM on my SGS3 and would love to try to get it to the DNA
I'm sure it could but usually the developer owns the device they develop for or else users have to do all the testing which can get tricky. We have 4.3 out pretty stable and 4.2.2 sense 5 basically stable as well. We will get the 4.3 sense 5 update soon and our devs will trick it out so you've got options but we are lucky that we will have some good development projects well into next year.

Oh yeah I completely agree. Development for this phone continues to improve and it's great. Many options. I was just simply wondering if that would work.
As long as the base/port roms are the same base (aosp/aosp, sense/sense) it should work more or less right?

Should, yes. Its just different hardware basically albeit very similar to the ONE.
I currenty have a VZW S4, but it's locked down tight... and im kind of sick of samsung siding with the carrier on this. so i was thinking of getting the onemax through edge.
Is it locked as tight as the s4? that is can you flash AOSP roms after getting the latest update?
And how is development, i might be a bit lost because of a lack of carrier specific subforum, but i dont see many VZW roms...
Development is practically non existent. However viper team is about to drop the first custom rom soon.
We have root.. Unlocked bootloader and S-off though.
Sense is flawless compared to the touchwiz.
sent from my humongous VZW HTC ONE MAX
Search.
The phone is fully unlocked as in bootloader unlocked (all variants) s-off (all variants) root and recovery (all variants) it's not that the developer support is non-existent it's the fact and this is in regards to AOSP that HTC hasn't released the source code yet for the kernel.. Once source is uploaded all AOSP teams and that will be Cyanogen first as always since all teams pull from CM will AOSP builds finally kick off... It's just a waiting game now. All the hard work getting to AOSP is done thanks to beaups!!! But yeah not to be that guy though since you are coming from the S4 and should know how XDA and all forums work read a bit. A post or 2 down from you was basically the same question lol.. If you would have checked Origiginal Android Development and Android Development you would have seen what is available thus far.... But to be honest though my man, this phone is sick... It's everything the OG One is but bigger for the phablet freaks like myself!!!!!!! Trust in the community and especially Flyhalf AOSP will come!

I currenty have a VZW S4, but it's locked down tight... and im kind of sick of samsung siding with the carrier on this. so i was thinking of getting the onemax through edge.
Is it locked as tight as the s4? that is can you flash AOSP roms after getting the latest update?
And how is development, i might be a bit lost because of a lack of carrier specific subforum, but i dont see many VZW roms...

Given the hardware between the One and the MAX are almost identical it is expected to be easy for dev's to port the code for the MAX from the one.
me and @deagleone actually tried flashing the One's kernel and the phone boots, the only thing that was broken was the WiFi which is a because of the different hardware.
The One was the phones which received a lot of dev support and has variety of custom rom's from AOSP to Sense
Wait hold up.... You were able to boot a HTC One kernel? What kernel? This is interesting...

Yes, ElementalX @flar2's kernel for the HTC One. I did flash it and it booted up. I was not able to use the kernel features for example S2W, however @deagleone reported that S2W works with his ROM.
Once HTC makes the kernel sources available, i think development should pickup easily.
No offense to OMJ. I am just suprised we have no other ROMS for this phone.

yep, right now the only one that supports sprint yet is ViperONE, because of the resent firmware update, we haven't got yet, but the first ones they put out prior to the update have sprint support, go to international thread and read up on it.

LeeDROID v7.6.0 also supports sprint.
Why aren't these roms present in the Sprint section I wonder? Seems odd as nobody would think to check the international forums.

easier for the devs to monitor one thread than a bunch.
Well they can do what Viper did and create a small thread with links then lock it
I blame htc lol
these forums are dead because of 2 reasons:
1) the M9 was not much of a upgrade from the M8
2) overheating issues
HTC took it on the chin w/ this one...

yup...I think a lot of people didn't see the M9 as a real upgrade to the M8 and only for those who didn't jump from M7 to M8 combined with the horrible press about the overheating (I've yet to experience) and camera (love the camera updates for what I use it for) and whining about it not being 4k (seriously, who needs that on a phone?) means it's not been a very popular device.
Screw 'em...I think it's a huge upgrade from the M7, especially the camera (even in it's original iteration).
Many thanks to @OMJ @benny3 and @chas123 for supporting this device.

This maybe true but another thing to point out is that this phone is so complete that there is hardly anything left to mod or add. I'm mean the only thing left for you to add to the phone is to add the 5.1 update to your ROM. Other then that your ROM is so complete its been on REV 24 for over a month with nothing else to add or tweak. Of course there is the point you already made that this phone being so close to the M8 that your ROM was already matured through the M8 days.

I could agree, but I'm still looking for a CM/AOSP flavor to rock on mine... And not to mention before the latest updates, we could still flash all those feature loaded ROMs. But lately, I'm hesitant to flash anything other than BadBoyz.

This is especially true when it comes to theming. You pretty much can theme it the way you want very easy. Im not a big themer or theme design, this latest Android 5.1 is very difficult to theme. Since its still new quite a bunch of apks are not compiling correctly and im not that skilled yet or have the time lately to figure out why, LOL. Other then the Viper Theming threads not much Theming has been going on throughout all HTC M9 versions.
You are better running badboyz for sprint, our firmware is extremely sensitive and with so many international versions using their base, our lte issues arrise of we aren't using a rom that supports our phone properly.

Traded my flex2 for a HTC One m9, rooted it, unlocked it, and then I installed badboyz the very first day. Love it. I'm so used to having cm/aosp on all my devices and I customize the crap out of them but I have to say that I have hardly seen any lag or performance issues on this phone. The phone gets pretty warm when doing heavy tasks like playing a game and what not but I don't find it any different then other devices doing the same tasks.
Either way, I love the m9. It's a well built solid device. I jumped at the chance to trade haha. Their loss

I will say this is probably the least active forum I have seen out of all the HTC's I have own which is every flagship for Sprint since the evo 4G (even going back to TP1 & TP2). That being said, OMJ's badboyz is awesome I have been using it since I got the phone. There is also no red text hboot and custom splash screens just like my M8 had. I like this phone, while really not much different from my M8 besides the camera it's not as big of fail as people make it out to be. I'm hoping the M10 is a nice refresh and hopefully HTC is done with trying camera gimmicks. I would like to see higher resolution screen next year & wireless charging.

The majority goes on in the overall m9 forum and not sprint as I guess devs don't want to check multiple forums.

I really don't see where development is lacking. As many have said there are quite a few roms in the main m9 forum that offer sprint support. If you look at the cm development device tree sprint support is added. What's missing?
LeeDroid, and Insertcoin drains horrible.......... lol any suggestion?
