I saw this posted on MoDaCo, the HTC One switching between Sense and Google Edition with no loss of data..
With all of out great devs this should be possible for our phone since it's better than the HTC One.

I love my s4, but honestly Dev support has always been greater on every one of my other HTC devices... Thats the only thing I miss.
Hi XDA,
I had debated buying a m8 vs e8 and ended up buying the e8 due to dual SIM necessity for myself .
However, after buying this device, my biggest gripe is that there is absolutely near zero developer love for the e8. [emoji31]
The e8 is basically a m8 stripped of the IR blaster and camera changed. THAT'S IT.
Can the devs at m8 forums please show some mercy to us folks and release a tweaked version of their roms for the e8?<---once again this is a request or plea for some help, and thanks if you took the time to read.
Thanks and please let another xda lover or developer know if this can be done.

It will come eventually. Devs need to actually own/have access to a device to work on it. Most devs have the M8, not the E8.
Patience is needed. There will be something eventually.
Also, google is your friend.
This is what I got from a simple google search (e8 roms).

Thanks for the hopeful words!!
I'll wait for support to build up eventually.
I did a fair bit of googling,and I found ROMS (the precious little available ) are for the China Unicom version - m8sw and these don't work on m8sd. Just my luck eh??
Developers please make ROMs for e8 also...please
Please devs ... Please support m8sd ... We need more roms for this device

I thought every snapdragon device has development.But e8 eventually proved me wrong.No development so far .Not even cm.Even HTC desire 816 got unofficial cm.I m feeling screwed by choosing this device by selling off my canvas 4 which device got cynogenmod (though it is mediatek) and tons of roms.
Devs please have a look on e8.Device is gr8 in all terms but lacking development.
I posted all over xda and official Cynogenmod forum but no response yet.

Because most devs have the M8 and aren't interested in getting the e8 cause it's just not really any upgrade.
So yeah, as said development I'm sure will come, but I'd expect it to be fairly quiet. Won't be near what the M8 development is anyway.
Patience. ?
Any progress guys?

This won't help. We need to be noticed by the awesome developers on m8 development threads. They won't bother to look into a 'help' thread unless we post on their dev threads and beg them for mercy.
Boy are we screwed thoroughly. [emoji28] [emoji33]

Take it upon yourself and make your own ROM
If you're after a stock rooted ROM then you can do that yourself easily. Then you can add tweaks with sense 6 toolbox and xposed.

Yup I guess so.
We are screwed.
Now a days E8 only serving purpose of playing high end games.:thumbdown:
As well as their are 2 variants of same model. We have m8sd.so we have to find an Indian developer.:sly:

Begging likely won't help either. If a dev is not internally motivated to make a ROM (usually since they own the device) they usually won't just do so because you beg or request it. You can try to start a bounty to create a monetary motive. But really, your best bet is to make one yourself, as previously suggested.

The only way that will work is you buy and send to them an E8. They can't develop for a device they don't own or have access to.

Thanks for the responses.
I'm already looking into starting the work myself, but this will take long.

Unless you're out for the most advanced thing in the world it will be easy. It takes patience but its something worth learning. I tried my hand at it, and since I was helpful around the forums I got help from countless devs (mostly from Team Venom) to learn to do what I wanted.
Although my main interest is themeing, I wanted to make something unique to my device and be able to say yes I did this myself.

Nice. Good luck. Its something I've always wanted to try my hand at, but my personal life (2 kids, including one new baby) just doesn't presently support it. There are a number of good guides on XDA, easily found by searching. This one caught my eye in particular, as it refers to MIUI, and is also very current and updated:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2769142
The only thing I called it my custom rom is to root it and delete some bloatware. LOL
Any E8 rom please? :C
At least compared to other M8 forums?
Idk, but maybe because we can use international Roms?

Yeah I know but, the AT&T variant can too and they seem way bigger
Most devs , BadSeed included are just waiting for official updates to drop and then it will pick up . Also most devs are making roms universal so they can be adjusted in aroma , and posting in international threads . But rest assured devs are here .. .
^^ Yeah I've been getting all my roms and mods from the regular HTC M8 forums from the start. There's plenty of activity...I think there's just not a lot specific to TMo because there doesn't need to be since we can use all the other stuff anyways.
I love my m8 but it's now my backup device, so many newer phones it kinda screwed m8.
We have any eye owners around here? I thought the dev community would pretty much be the same but it doesnt seem like I can flash the same ROM onto it from the M8.

How is your experience with M8 Eye, are you still using it, how is the camera and Battery performance specially the SOT and standby time.

Hi DroidBee,
Can we flash M8 custom roms on Eye?
Also can we unlock, root, S-Off eye the M8's way?
Please help. Thanks in advance.
Waiting keenly for your reply.
I know I'm not in the right forum, but since there isn't no one, I will use this one.
I've just recieved my HTC E9+, It's is E9pw the chineese model as far as I can tell.
I'm just loving the viperrom, Is there any chanse to install it on the e9+? and If not, are there any other roms/kernel which allow me extra features?
Thanks for you help
No viperrom for e9+ or m9+ , and probably you'll find some roms only on Chinese forums AFAIK. I don't have an e9+ to develop on, so I can't help you with that, and also my budget for phones/gadgets is off for a while with the expensive m9+. Honestly I don't think there's many users who would donate so a dev could pick up a device, I haven't seen a pledge thread in English, and there's devs for it on China. As it's quite close to m9+ I'd be inclined to dev on it, but I only dev for phones I have. Maybe later there will be some xda dev too with the device
