Did you get the unlock code from the HTCDev website yet? You will need it to unlock your bootloader. Then you will have to unlock it using fastboot and ADB, or maybe terminal emulator but I'm unsure about doing it that way. You won't be able to do it from your SD card.
Are you just trying to unlock your bootloader, or are you trying to gain root?

yes of course i have unlock file am trying to Wipe the Phone hard reset not doing any thing wipe from recovery all nothing phone remains the same after all of that even when i try to enter Ruu flash mode phone just restart and opens up

RUU mode is wrong as well.
Go to this site and read the instructions. It will explain everything you need to do. It also has a video you can watch to see the whole process before you proceed.
This is the method and site I used to unlock/root my M8. I always use @zedomax's tutorials to root my stuff. He does a great job of going through the steps.

I have the same issue
No wipe possible
no way to unlock bootloader
hard reset not working
The phone have the same notification (if you erase all notifications, when the phone restarts, they come back)

Tried to install VemonOne and now have a messed up phone with no OS

Ok, i tried to install VenonOne, it installed first time but my wifi didnt work, so i searched around and found out i needed to update my firmware, which needed S-off, which i cant becuase i dont have the money for sunshine. and problem after problem and following half arsed tutoials online solved nothing. i can only go to bootloader and recovery. not sure what to do,
i have twrp installed
Im a D*ck head and didnt make a backup becuae it 'looked easy enough'

You probably realize it at this point; but my rule of thumb is always make a backup before flashing anything (or at a minimum, have a known good backup or known good ROM ready to flash). Its got nothing to do with how "easy" a process is. Things can go wrong even with the simplest mods, to the most knowledgeable users, and even if you do nothing wrong.
You don't need s-off to update your firmware.
Either run a Lollipop (or Marshmallow) RUU intended for your CID (relock bootloader in order to RUU). Keeping in mind that this will wipe the phone.
Alternately (such as if there is no RUU for your version), restore a stock ROM that corresponds to your current firmware, restore corresponding stock recovery. Then do OTA update, which will also update your firmware.
After updating the firmware by either of the 2 above methods, just flash TWRP back onto the phone (in case of the RUU method, you'll need to unlock the bootloader again, before you can flash TWRP) and flash your custom ROM of choice.
If you do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial numbers) we can offer some more specific assistance.
thanks for taking your time to help,

Boot loop on a totally stock M8

Hi there.
I had some problems with M8 after Marshmallow update.
Sometimes it freezes on locked screen(phone working) - I have to restart it.
Phone stucks in a HTC logo, so I restarted it again and again.
And some time it starts a system.
Yesterday I had a problem to open any app - app open and closes immediately.
Some apps I had opened earlier works ok.
So I restarted my phone and it stucks on a boot loop.
Rom, recovery are totally official European software.
I haven't root.
I can access to HBOOT, FASTBOOT and RECOVERY.
Fast boot factory reset doesn't work.
Recovery wipe cache/data doesn't work
There is fastboot all vars:

I doubt you'll find it on the official HTC site.
But you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
RUU is probably your best bet, on a fully stock device.

It's on stock Sense?
I'd suggest unlocking the bootloader, flashing TWRP, and then flashing a custom ROM. It's tedious but it's probably the best bet.

Didn't think about that. Never mind.
I have no idea. :/
I'm assuming the pics are on internal storage, and not the removable SD? Probably an obvious/stupid question, but it never hurts to confirm (on the off chance you or your friend didn't think of it). If on removable SD, it would be an easy matter to remove the card, insert in card reader and retrieve the pics.
Otherwise, I don't know of a way to extract the photos from internal storage in the current condition (can't boot into OS, no custom recovery).
Any chance your friend opted into any backup apps (pre-installed apps or otherwise), such as HTC Backup, Google Photos, Dropbox, etc.? Maybe not all the photos will be on the cloud, and not full resolution. But better than nothing.
If not, I can never understand why folks don't take the time to backup data that is important to them. Waiting for disaster to strike, then searching for a recovery plan, is often too little, too late.

[HELP] HTC One M8s giving a Decrypt Storage error

Hi,
My HTC M8s will not boot up any more and just looking to see if its possible to get it back to life again. I was trying to get TWRP installled on it so had unlocked the bootloader but could never get TWRP to run. So I tried to relock the bootloader and then RUU to get it back to stock or normal original state. That seemed to go fine as it says relocked but then my phone just powered rebooted itself after 2 days and gives a decrypt storage error.
If I enter any password it says it is correct but the data is corrupt so I must reset my phone back to factory settings, which would be fine but it just boots back to the same thing again.
Just looking to see what i need to get to go back to original settings, do I need a RUU and a stock recovery ? ? ? If so which ones ? ? Fastboot devices seems to be working and I have the unlock_code from htcdev.
Here are the details: IMEI and Serial excluded

I am having almost the exact same issue. I dug in a little deeper and it seems that the $INTERNAL_STORAGE location /sdcard doesn't exist or has become corrupted.
