Restore to stock from GPE

purchased my phone T-mobile M8 used and it had been converted to GPE. There is a crackling issue with the top speaker and I'd like to return it for warranty repair. I haven't seen a great thread on converting a tmo m8 back to stock from GPE so I thought I'd share the research I have done and ask for help since I have not been successful yet...
With adb/fastboot, drivers, etc all in place...

Download the RUU

Run the RUU in Windows. Everything connects and it starts installing then - I get the Error 159 [IMAGE]
I have followed the steps above, downloaded twice, repeated and still...no dice. Any clue what I'm missing? I'm sure there will be other folks who need to revert and would benefit from this.
Here is my info:

Information

Okay so i recently got an Htc One m8 from a friend. It's already rooted, but I dont know if it has a custom recovery or anything. Can someone fill me in on all the important things I have to know for custom recoveries and kernals and stuff like that. I have an At&t version btw.

Q5 has a link to some nice information about HTCs
and you should do a "fastboot getvar all", it shows you all the information you should know about your phone.
for example:

[Q] Chaning the MID back to the stock T-Mobile one?

Alright so I converted my T-Mobile back to Sense coming from the GPE version which was fully converted (CID, MID, etc) I have sense on here but OTA's won't work because my MID is different, anyone know how to change the MID back to what it was originally?

That's the tutorial I tried as well, I had the phone rooted and did adb shell then did su prompting "#" and I pasted the code in, and checked the MID and it was the same.

I found these RUUs here http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one-m8/general/official-ruu1-55-605-2-t2883845 ,
but it's said that they are for the M8_VZW, and my device is M8_WLV. I don't if they're the same, and I don't know if I can use these RUUs for my device without causing issues with the connection. I'm worried about the GSM/CDMA differences. I use GSM btw.
Please help I really need it to fix my phone.

You have the Verizon Model ID (MID) and product name, those are the correct RUUs.

That's wrong code for him.
It must have 38 and 31 in the line which represent 81.
Find \x31\x00\x30\ in the line
