I have been running this rom for quite some time and I wanted to know the procedures while being s on to upgrade the entire phone. I'm also enclosing a screenshot of my current firmware and ROM. Any help would be greatly appreciated I haven't done this since I first got my m8
Download the most recent RUU from the thread linked below to your computer:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
Make sure your phone has a full charge. Reboot your device to the bootloader and connect your phone and computer via USB cable. Select the fastboot option from the menu and you should show that you're connected via fastboot USB mode. Open up a command window with ADB and type the command "fastboot oem lock". Press enter. This command will re-lock your boot loader. Now, double-click the RUU file you downloaded to start the installer. Be patient, as it may take a few minutes for the installer to start. Once it starts, follow the prompts on your computer screen. Once the RUU completes you can disconnect your phone from your computer and reboot your phone. The RUU will wipe the internal storage on your phone, so make a back-up and store it on your computer or your external SD card, if applicable.
Can i unlock the bootloader again after doing all this by typing fastboot oem unlock in adb?
I just wanna make sure I update everything correctly and get set up for a new Rom. I'm not getting all my calls or texts. So I am guessing the radio is too outdated
Is there a way to just get an image that will bring my phone back to stock so I can upgrade everything all at once

Alright and that won't screw up the recovery I have installed correct so I can just flash a new rom even with a locked bootloader or do I have to go through all the stupid steps to unlock it again

The stock recovery will be installed. Additionally, you'll need to use HTC Dev to unlock your phone again. That's the best way to update being S-on.
So there's no way to just update the firmware and radio without having to go through the rest of that?
Actually I just looked up how to get s off on my phone I'm going to use the fire water tool and then I'll use that link to get the firmware and flash that with the fuu

And this is what I get. I suppose nothing is simple. I got no clue what is wrong.
Kernel info
Flash a stock rooted ROM from the RUU thread I mentioned previously, then try it again.
I locked boot. Ran a ruu from boot and destroyed my os and it took me all night to recover. Can you please show me how to restore to stock? I'm kinda over it
Now that you've run the RUU, go ahead and run the Sunshine exploit. Afterwards you can go about installing recovery and flashing a new ROM, if you'd like.
Not paying 25 bucks. I'm just wanting stock. My phone got too close to getting the hammer. I'm just gonna go stock. Don't know how

I've been trying to get the 1.29.1540.16 update in my HTC One Dev Edition. So I tried to flash the Stock RUU I downloaded from the HTC site, then download the OTA and then run it from the phone but it just takes me to the TWRP recovery (after I unlocked the bootloader, on "relocked" it just took me to the fastboot screen). What am I doing wrong?
Also when the first time I flashed the RUU (like 2 weeks before) the "Tampered" went away, this time this isn't happening.
Tried relocking/unlocking.
Don't know what to do. Help very much appreciated.
You have to flash the stock recovery first then run the RUU.

Recovery is different and it's not included in the RUU (I think). To flash the stock recovery you need to be in fastboot mode and flash via adb. Use this guide by mike1986. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618. Scroll down to the "Going back to stock" section.

Didn't answer before cause I went out to the movies (and of course I didn't enjoy the movie thinking of this).
Right on the money Mac!. Hadn't unlocked the bootloader, did it and worked like a charm. Can't thank you enough, I could install the OTA and that fixed the issues with the capacitive buttons that were my only reason to do so (although phone's so great I think I'd have used it with the buttons issues as well), one last question though: I still have the "tampered" sticker, is that because I did it the other way around? I mean, should I have installed the img file you gave me and then flash the Stock RUU and that would have erased it?

Yes it will wipe your phone just like it came from the factory, so backup anything important to your PC.
Yes there a HK RUU's and non HK RUU's in the thread I linked.
You can download the RUU directly from HTC:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-harman-kardon-edition-sprint/news/
It is located at the bottom of the page. But you might want to wait a few days and download the Lollipop RUU when it releases. It will replace the current KK version once approved and FOTA is pushed out.

Here are some things to try.
Did you re-lock your bootloader?
Try a different USB port (USB2 work best)
Try a different PC.
To get back to bootloader press power vol up until the screen turns black then hold vol down.
If you know how to use adb/fastboot commands you can open a cmd and type
fastboot reboot-bootloader

If you are s-on you have to re-lock the bootloader for it to work.

Hi.
I should start by saying that I am completely new to rooting phones. I think it's fair to say that I am in over my head!
I am attempting to return my HTC One M7 back to stock. I have relocked to bootloader but am unable to find a RRU that is compatible with my device. I basically want my phone as it was (able to receive official OTA's etc). My phone is S-on and hasnt been S-off. I'm not confident enough to go S-off.
My phones details are shown in the attached photo. My CID is ORANG001 (UK EE).
I have been through the extensive list but none are compatible with my device.
Any assistance offered would be appreciated. Remember - speak slowly!
Thanks.

Ok that's fine
you need to unlock the bootloader now at htcdev.com so you can flash the correct recovery to you phone
download TWRP 2.8.5.0 here > http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
flash it
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
enter recovery and copy your rom to your phone again and install it again
no need to wipe again / theirs no RUU for your phone so no need to relock the bootloader any more
Very helpful. Thanks.
I'm sorry to cause further frustration, but could you give me simpler instructions? I don't want to make my situation any worse!
As I said above, I'm in way over my head.

Humm that's as simple as it gets
go to http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader
follow the instructions to unlock the bootloader
when it's done download TWRP 2.8.5.0 and Flash it same as you did the unlock token above, in a command prompt from the folder with fastboot in it.
when you get to the TWRP recovery screen copy your rom to the phones storage and then click install it in TWRP
choose your file you just copied and let it install
the first reboot to lollipop will take a long time ...be patient
actually your not on 7.x firmware .. you need to flash an older rom
Use this one >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=22071
it matches your firmware better
Thanks. And that'll return my phone to stock?
So the other day I got the update for 4.25.654.14 but found out I couldn't update without relocking my bootloader and reinstalling the stock recovery since I'm S-On. Today I got to reinstalling stock recovery but I forgot to relock the bootloader before installing the update and now I'm stuck on a black screen after the initial HTC splash screen. I was able to get back into bootloader and relock the bootloader, but that didn't do anything. Anyone know how to fix this?

The RUU contains the whole software(including firmware and ROM) so it should work, but it MAY wipe the whole SD (most of the time it does), so backup everything on a computer. You will need the proper RUU file and a re-locked bootloader ONLY if S-ON.

You can run a RUU but doing so will wipe your internal storage so make sure you back it up to your computer first. Also, if S-on you will need to re-lock your bootloader using the command fastboot oem lock prior to running the RUU.
Huge amount of frustration with trying to deal with my phone
I soft bricked my HTC One M8 HK not too long ago, and had left it sitting in the dust for a while as I had no options of fixing it because I wiped the memory on accident (how I did, I don't know. Guess I'm dumb. That's not the point though). It's been sitting on my dresser for about 2 months being unused as I had no microSD cards in hand. All it had was an unlocked bootloader and working TWRP.
As of right now, I've tried to install 4 ROMs. All 4 did not work. I followed the instructions and unlocked my bootloader and did all other essential things. I installed ViperOneM8 before being ignorant that my WiFi wouldn't work. It was the only ROM I installed that actually booted properly. The only issue was that I had no WiFi. Had it worked, I wouldn't be making this thread. Then I got Android Revolution HD, installed it and it installed properly. I booted it into system, and it brought me to bootloader. This was the same issue I had while trying to install my first ROM, and still happens. Then I got CyanogenMod, and it didn't even install. TWRP told me it failed right off the bat. Same thing with whenever I tried to install a stock firmware recovery of the variant I have, HK Sprint.
Right now, I'm getting the 4.2.5 HK RUU in hopes that it works. I tried it previously, and it was a literal waste of time. I've been here for 5 hours trying different ROMs and to no success. I was very faithful I would get to use my phone again, although unless this RUU actually works, I don't have a lot of positive faith for my phone.
Are there any fixes for getting something like CyanogenMod to work? I actually really wanted this ROM after I remembered it, and was quite let down after it failed to work. Also, is there anything I should do with the phone before I go farther with anything?
Thanks for any help you all can give, I would greatly appreciate it. Sucks not having a phone, so I'll take any help I can get. Thanks once again!
EDIT: The RUU did not work. It failed to update. Waiting for answers I guess..

Flashing RUU requires locked bootloader.
Alright, I'm seriously about to just throw this thing in the dumpster. I've been here another 2 hours trying to get Cyanogen to work, and I figured out the issue with it. The updater script file wasn't accepting m8_whl. I'm still unaware how in the Mod Edit I'm supposed to put m8_whl into the script for it to be accepted.
To be more specific, the actual updater script has m8whl, while my phone recognizes as m8_whl. It denies it.
I thought I put it into the script correctly, although it is not accepting it. I found a quote not saying the location, and I assumed in the latest release of Cyanogen 12 for M8s, it was in /META-INF/google/android/updater-script
Please, someone help me before I have an anger episode. This thing has literally wasted my whole Mod Edit day.

Don't toss it, it's still worth something, even if not to you. But as @popthosegaskets said, you need to relock the bootloader to flash the RUU. If it's been sitting for awhile, what version of firmware and hboot was it on prior to not working? Perhaps the issue is that it's older, also try flashing the newest version of TWRP if you still want to install a custom OS.
If you want to RUU, just use the fastboot command "fastboot oem lock" while in fastboot and then run the RUU. I think it reboots after locking.

[Mod hat on] I know it can be frustrating at times but please take it easy with the swearing. [/Mod hat off]
You might try flashing the Full firmware that matches the RUU that you are trying to flash, the past couple updates require hboots to match on both your device and the RUU or you will get an error.

My apologies for the swearing, was angry at the time.
Also, my hboot version seems to be 3.18. Not sure what to do in order to be able to flash firmware. My OS version seems to be 2.16.651.4 as well if that helps.
What would I have to do in order to install a ROM and how?
If you are not flashing the full firmware to begin with, that's the issue. From your OP it looks like you only have an unlocked BL and had TWRP.
You must relock the BL and then run the full RUU, you can get it in the thread here, or get it from HTC. Either way you need the full one, it flashes the FW and Software as well as bootloader and radios.

Ok re-lock your bootloader if you have not already.
Flash this for Non HK 4.25.651.18 Full Firmware
Flash this for HK 4.25.654.18 Full Firmware
Instructions:
-rename firmware to firmware.zip
-copy firmware.zip to your sdk folder
-boot into bootloader
-plug in usb
-select fastboot option (screen should say fastboot usb)
-type fastboot oem rebootRUU
-when u see the black screen w/ HTC, type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
-when it's done, type fastboot reboot
Once done flash the latest Non HK or HK RUU found here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
Then unlock your bootloader again using the unlock code you got from HTC.
Re-flash the latest TWRP found here... https://dl.twrp.me/m8/
This will give you a fresh start then you can try to flash the rom you want.

If you have a platform-tools you can use that or use the folder attached.
Unzip it and copy the files to a folder.

Alright, I did it all, but it doesn't seem to be changing once I send over the zip. Is it meant to take a while or is there something wrong?
EDIT: 20 minutes later and still at the sending. Something probably went wrong.
EDIT 2: 30 minutes later, still sending.

Check PM.
