The current version supports all of the carriers now, including Sprint, and Verizon. Do your due diligence and read the ROM OP!! If you're unsure ask questions first, flash second.

Viper Rom has hit the One M8!!

Thread OP: j to the 4n

OP can be found here: [ROM][Feb 13] ViperOneM8 5.0.2 | 2.22.401.4

Viper is here for the Sprint and VerizonM8!!

That's right folks, all previous reasons not to root your phone and flash a rom have become null and void!

Thread OP: Turge

Sprint OP over at XDA: [ROM][APR 12][SPRINT] ViperOneM8 1.2.0 | 1.54.401.5 | Android 4.4.2 Sense 6.0 | Venom Tweaks, VenomPie, Venom Hub, Theming, Icon Packs, OTA Updates and more!

Verizon OP over at XDA: [ROM][APR 12][VERIZON] ViperOneM8 1.2.0 | 1.54.401.5 | Android 4.4.2 Sense 6.0

This is an official Viper rom from Team Venom, and it's sure to please. There's a whole slew of customization options and goodies included. Personally, I've never been disappointed with a Viper Rom. Ran Viper as my daily driver on my LTEvo about 95% of the time.

If you're looking for a good stable ROM, Viper always delivers. Give it a test spin, you won't be disappointed!

You should be able to download it direct and apply.

I didn't get the chance to read the whole thread yet, so I'm not 100% on that.
From personal experience with these things, I'd download the whole rom then flash fresh. Helps avoid the little bugs that can crop up from time to time. A fresh clean slate will remove the chance for any errors, especially with a ROM that's as heavily modified as this one.

I will be flashing this ROM this week!

I stayed up wayyy past my bed time Saturday, rooted and S-offed, then flashed this. It's really a good ROM. All of the Viper fixins on this device is an awesome experience. It's really only the second release too, wait until they have some more time to polish it out!

It's a great rom you'll like it!

I posted over at xda but figured i would try here too. I am having an issue with the native email client showing unread message numbers but not the actual messages themselves for my synced folders. Has anyone seen this?

Actually I haven't because I don't utilize the mail client app on the phone. I just use Gmail on my phone.

Have you posted this up in the bug tracker for the rom?

To let them know about a bug, open the Venom Hub app, and select "Feedback" on the main screen. Give them as much detail as you can.

Phone model, variant (Sprint, Verizon, Rodgers, etc), Software version, Firmware version, Hboot#, etc.

Viper got another update to version 5.0!

There's a whole new slew of customizations, but the best is the ability to use the Viper Nav bar and auto hide it. You can set the nav bar to appear when you swipe up from the bottom of the screen, then it'll drop down after a few seconds. This little mod gives us the ability to utilize the entire screen!!

Excellent SA, thanks for the heads up on the update!

I merged this in with the Viper thread and changed the thread title to reflect the update.

 

[teddyearp]

Since the thread(s) over at xda get so cluttered I think I'll ask here.

Viper One 1.6.0, clean install. No problems, just wanting to know about the navigation bar.

In Venom tweaks -> colors, there you can colorize the nav bar buttons, however, how do you activate the ones not currently in the nav bar? I would love to put search and menu there and perhaps remove recents.

TIA

I'm not sure you can do this Teddy. I tried to find a setting in the Venom Tweaks, but I didn't notice anything. I think you can remap the button, but not change the icon.

If you go under Venom Tweaks / Keyboard, Buttons & Gestures and scroll all the way to the bottom. You can remap the home short press to whatever you like, same with recent apps.

I didn't want to change the icons, I wanted a search and menu button in my nav bar and possibly to remove the recents. I couldn't remove recents, but added the other two was done in the same section you pointed out. Oddly, they were already active, so I had to turn them off, then back on and poof there they were!

Thanks.

No problem my friend!!

Glad I found this!!
I just got the M8 and flashed Sunday and I am slowly going through all the options and I happened to see these options turned on but didn't see the buttons on the navbar so I flipped them off and back on and then they appeared.
I do have an issue, hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. Venom Tweaks->Keyboard, Buttons & Gestures->Navigationbar. I have it set to Venom, even rebooted like four times, but I cannot get the options to activate for Navbar height, auto hide, auto hide delay, etc., all are dimmed out. See attachment.
<edit> Just noticed I was a version behind for some reason. Flashed the 1.6 upgrade and all the options are dim still.

 

[Granite1]

When you select the Viper Nav bar, look in the top righ hand corner. Should see a button to reboot. See if rebooting does the trick.

Nope, did that about 4 times. I even set it to none, rebooted, went back to tweaks, set it to venom rebooted, went back into tweaks and checked and venom is selected but all options are dim.
I also wiped cache and d cache but no go. I really want to hide it!!

Set it to stock--> reboot --> set to Venom -->reboot again . That's what was suggested on the XDA forum for those that are having issues with navbar

Under keyboard, there are options to show the menu and search buttons for the nav bar

Dang, that didn't work either. I would hate to have to wipe and start over but I might just backup, wipe, reinstall, check to see if it works.

EDIT: I installed GravityBox and just shrunk the NavBar to 65 for now. That seems to be working pretty good.

You don't need to wipe. Just reinstall the full ROM

What's up with the LTE switch in the EQS?

Mine doesn't want to switch on. And I'm not in an LTE area but will be driving in and out of them.

 

[SolApathy]

It's a big, at least for those of us on Sprint. I am in an LTE area and it doesn't properly toggle the service

Pretty sure that I flashed the radio fix for that.

Prior to Viper and prior to flashing the new radios I was driving in and out of LTE and everything worked great.

I just don't understand that switch.
