Aggiornate i link è uscita la versione 4.0.3.1 la sto usando io e mi trovo da Dio. Flashata con twrp 2.8.1.0 e tutto è andato a buon fine. Se avete l'ultimo fw sense non dovete flashare il fw GPE... tra un paio di cicli vi dirò la batteria come va

Aggiornato.. fammi sapere come va

Quindi raga da come ho capito non bisogna convertire il dispositivo in google play edition, ora monto la sense skydragon, basta scaricare la ROM e flasharla direttamente tramite custom recovery giusto ??

No basta avere il Firmware SENSE 4.4.4 (quello che installi per far funzionare correttamente la ViperOne) e non hai bisogno di conversioni. Aggiungo che io ho installato la ROM via cavo OTG. Per chi avesse problemi con i file nella SD Card ecco la soluzione: [NOV 13] SkyDragon | GPE - Lollipop 5.0.0 | v4.0.3 | 3.09.1700.2 - Post #2283 - XDA Forums

Buonpomeriggio ragazzi, ho un problemone. HTC One M8 è da quasi un ora che è fermo sulla boot animation di android Lollipop con rom skydrow. Ho paura di aver sbagliato qualcosa. E' possibile tornare alla recovery?
