Returning to stock Developers Edition - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm pretty sure this question is asked a million times, but I still need some clarification.
My HTC M8 is a Developers Edition and has been s-off rooted and flashed with CM11. Can somebody send me a link or guide to where I can return to stock in order to send it back to HTC for a replacement?
There's been guides of European M8 returning to stock and others, but I'm not sure if it will work with my developers edition.

Are you S-OFF or bootloader unlocked? If not you can achieve both by using Sunshine which is an all in one root/s-off/bootloader unlock pretty much. Only downside is it costs $25. If you're using the international variant(which I assume you are since you're posting in international forum) then you can also request an unlock code to unlock your phones bootloader using HTCDev. This however will only allow you to do so much and I recommend Sunshine but either way will work. Once you have either an unlocked bootloader or S-OFF you can flash one of the custom ROM's from the Development section of the M8 forum. If you want stock Sense I recommend using Android Revolution HD, otherwise you can browse there yourself and find something you like.
Take note in order to flash anything you're going to need a custom recovery such as CWM or TWRP
TWRP can be found here & CWM can be found here
ARHD(Android Revolution HD) can also be found here
Also here is a good tutorial on how to do these things if you don't already know. I highly recommend doing some research for yourself and truly understanding what you're doing before you actually do any of it. As with anything you should always do your own research before doing something and make sure you're familiar with it and properly equipped to do it(equipped with proper knowledge).

[Q] [Q&A] How to root HTC M8 Eye

Hi,
I am from India and have just bought recently launched HTC One M8 Eye which is only available in China and India.
I want to know if I can root and install custom ROMs on it like any other M8. The only difference between them is a 13 Megapixel rear camera instead of a 4 UltraPixel camera. It has Snapdragon 801 clocked at 2.3 Ghz, which I think is the same as the European HTC M8.
EDIT: Just got to know that it lacks Infrared port too while I was trying to configure it with my home theater system. :/
We can't help you wait until their is a forum for that specific device if you try flashing an m8 Rom you would be lucky if your camera didn't work worse it could turn into a total brick

looking for root for HTC m8 eye
looking for the same root. the previous chinese version is similar to the standard HTC m8 root. but will wait for a specific root process for the phone.
Jealous! I want a M8 eye
Root will likely be no different.
-unlock bootloader
-flash custom recovery
-flash SU binaries if recovery doesn't do it for you.
-install SU app.
But, Need to be able to unlock bootloader. Also need a custom recovery made for the device. (if the regular m8 one won't do.)
As far as roms go, I doubt original m8 roms will work... Period, or at least things may not work right... Radio, camera...????
Patience. Someone brave needs to attempt all this first, or a Dev will work on it.
It would be really great if we could use M8 ROMs straight away. Hope devs find a way for it soon. :angel:
I tried to do this process for my latest phone. I have succeeded in unlocking the phone (after selecting M8 on HTCDev). However, I cant seem to get any of the recoveries installed (twrp, openrecovery*, recovery* for M8). Flashing the recovery, followed by erasing the cache is OK - no error messages. When I select "Recovery" from the bootloader menu options, it just quickly flashes something and presents the bootloader screen again. On top of it, I seem to have lost my "Delete Personal Data" as it simply reboots and goes into bootloader menu.
So unless someone figures out how to root the M8 Eye, we are stuck. I curse myself for having bought M8 Eye instead of M8, thinking its the latest and greatest - HTC was being deceptive by not clearly stating that IR blaster and a couple of other things are not included - they seem to require a HTC Mini+. They have even taken out the "hearing aid" option . I really thought that the in-call volume on M8 series would be fantastic given all the glowing reviews about the speakers and how that one of the speakers doubles up as the ear piece. It seems that low call volume is an oft stated complaint in many of the latest android phones and it leaves folks like me that use hearing aids, in the lurch. I need to have root and custom kernels to crank up the volume

Need help on marshmallow update! (HTC__044)

Hi! i've tried searching around but couldn't find any guides on how to convert my one M9(asia version) to dev/unlocked edition. Any idea how to do it?
I'm a total newbie when it comes to rooting/flashing stuff so if anyone can provide a clear step-by-step guide, it'll be great!
I have a M9u, CID is OPJA100(i think? its printed there my M9 box), Software number 2.11.708.27, HTC__044
S-on, not rooted, bootloader locked. Just a fresh new M9 i've gotten recently
I really wanna try out marshmallow on my M9
I suggest that you wait for the update rather than messing through all the steps cuz u know you are on official stock and unmodified version

Yeah that might be the best and safest option for me right now. Anybody knows when marshmallow will arrive for these asia variants?
If you are not S-off.You can't become a dev version now.Cause Dev version need CID and MID both right.
