New to Android: How would I revert back to unrooted with all flags removed?

So I made the silly and utterly stupid mistake of rooting my HTC m8. I don't want to brick my phone, so if anybody can help me out that would be great.
I want to remove all red flags, and install the latest 5.0 OTA update.
I also cracked my screen a while ago, and I want to send it back to get it fixed.
I am S Off with 4.4.4 currently.
Once again, any help would be great.

First things first, can you post the output of fastboot getvar all, making sure not to post your IMEI and Serial Number (for security purposes). We can then go from there

I'm not sure, but I doubt they'll fix your screen for free... Unless you bought extra coverage? Not to mention if you unlocked on HTC site, your warranty is void anyway. Usually.
Just wanted to bring this up. ?

Oh, my point is, if they're going to charge you anyway... No point in returning to stock.

[Q] Return CM12 to Stock ROM pre-rooted

Hi,
I've spent 2 days back and forth looking how to do this...
I currently have CM12 installed on my M8 but I wish to restore my phone back to Stock rom Pre-rooted. I understand I need to RUU?
Ive read this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376&nocache=1 and I'm still confused as I cannot find my firmware with an nandroid rom.
I have got my getvar

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,

How do I update to Marshmallow on a rooted Bell HTC One M8?

I realize this is probably asked fairly often, but I did try to find the answer myself. So I thank you and apologize in advance.
In any case, I've been using lollipop for some time on my M8 now. It is rooted and S-On. As a result, I can't simply OTA up into Marshmallow. I bought this phone used, and I believe it was Bell, but I'm uncertain. I was hoping to update to Marshmallow (and keeping my files intact if that is at all possible), but am totally at a loss as to what I should be doing. For one, not a whole lot of threads about Bell, so I'm unsure what files I should be using, but beyond that if someone could give me a nudge in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
To get things started, my fastboot getvar all is:
Code:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000

You can unroot it within supersu app itself.
Then restore system & boot only from non-rooted 4.20.666.1 backup and keep your data, install 4.20.666.1 stock recovery.img. You'll receive OTA up to Marshmallow with your data intact.
You can have all those in my thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860

Thank you, everything worked out perfect, though it took a little longer than I thought it would. One issue though, it seems maybe the radio is weaker? I can't get to LTE most of the time in places I had no trouble with before.
For anyone going through the same thing, if Sense is crashing after your update, just go into settings, apps and clear out the data for Sense.

No idea about the radio matter .. maybe an updated fastboot getvar all can tell something if not correctly done.

It's definitely having some trouble getting up to LTE, but it does connect to LTE once in a blue moon so its not the APN or something stupid like that.

Broken processor/softbricked?

So, I got an HTC One M8 of a friend of mine. I tried to repair the phone as it was in a bootloop. However, even after installing several different roms it wouldn't start. I noticed another strange thing; Whenever I want to go from the bootloader to recovery, it takes absolutely ages (read: 10-15 minutes) to actually get to this. I tried it with a custom recovery as well as the stock recovery. This makes me think it has something to do with the CPU?
So far I've tried different ROMs, a nandroid backup, updating my firmware and (unsuccesfully) finding a RUU file for my HTC M8. I have included the getvar information for further possible details:
Code:
(bootloader) version: 0.5

I posted the getvar in another thread in which other people also posted theirs, so I accidentally copied someone else's info!
And I was afraid of that as I have been looking for it as well... Is there maybe a generic RUU file that works for most m8 devices?

no every device variant have it's own RUU ( available or not )
your best solution ( i'm afraid it's the only ) is to restore a stock backup then flash the signed firmware

yea, just tried this again, didn't work, was stuck again on the o1ne screen after the vodafone logo. after installing a custom rom (android revolution HD 53.1) it was also stuck on the same screen. the last time it was stuck on this screen, it didn't get any further after a full 8+ hours of waiting. I waited for an hour on both flashings, but nothing at all...
Thanks for assisting me so far anyway

bump!
I really would want to use this phone...
