I'm using a sprint m8 internationally on a permanent basis so at the very least I need a sim to work with a gsm network on the m8, tried to flash some radios (which failed). So... is there a way to purge everything 'sprint' from a htc one m8 ? Will an RUU do the trick (recommendations)?
Phone is s-off, unlocked, rooted etc. See below for the getvar dump. cid is 1's mid is dev. No luck on installing custom roms - still restricted to sprint variants.

You could convert it to the Developer Edition using the RUU and see if that works. If not, you can flash the Sprint RUU to go back to the beginning
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/ruu-m8-developer-edition-sense-1-54-t2884777 this one?
This one:
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_411207_signed_2.exe
It's on that thread, but above is the direct link to HTCs server
" ERROR 155 The ROM Update utility cannot update your android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again" is what it shows....
So it appears something 'sprint' is blocking it. Although I suspected a full ROM,radio might work...

Hey guys,
I purchased a HTC ONE M8 through eBay and wondered why I was not getting the lollipop update and contacted HTC and they told me that my boot loader is unlocked and that is the reason why I am not getting the updates.
I am currently running 4.4.2 android version and living in UK my network provider is EE. My original cid num is VODA001
Here is my fastboot data:
C:\ABDFAST>fastboot getvar all

Please could someone which firmware file I need to flash in order to get lollipop, ultimate goal is to install custom CM12. When ever I try to install CM12 via twrp when selecting and trying to install the package I get an error saying that I cant install due to bootloader being 3.16.0.0000 and need to update to 3.18.0.0000 or 3.19.0.0000 and have been told that I require a firmware update to get this? Is this correct?
Thanks
I just downloaded the new RUU from T-Mobile and was trying to install and everytime I get an error 155, the previous RUU 4.20 installs with no issue, I am currently S-off and relocked the bootloader, I have searched the web and can't seem to find any help...

I had the same issue. I got the 4.20.531.4 RUU to run no problem. I just took the OTA when I kept getting 155 error.
No clue... has anyone installed via RUU successfully?
Same problem. Any help?

I had the same issue and screwed around with it for hours trying to figure it out. Ended up flashing this firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960686131
then rerunning the RUU. Went through fine. Not saying it will work for you, but it worked for me.
I'm stock 5.0.2 with S-On and have never been rooted or unlocked the bootloader (my mother in laws phone) and I get this same error 155 when trying to use the RUU for Marshmallow that I downloaded from HTC. I think the problem is because the OTA that pops up is to prep for Marshmallow but after it installs and reboots it soft bricks the phone and I have to do a factory reset from the bootloader which causes the OTA to never finish so I'm screwed, any ideas?

Flash signed firmware 6.20.531.5 from here (instruction on how to flash at the bottom of the post), then RUU.
The post before yours has it right. But the unsigned firmware linked in that post will only work with s-off. The signed firmware I linked to will work with s-on.
Thank you so much, I'll try that!

I flashed the signed 6.20.531.5 following the instructions from the link and then used the MM RUU again and it finally worked! Thanks so much!
Thanks a lot, it's worked for my HTC One M8.
:good:
I flashed the signed firmware and it worked thank you SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!
My phone is soft-bricked, and I couldn't find the right RUU to fix it anywhere. Here is a copy of the fastboot getvar all results.

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.
After I Unlocked my Bootloader and obtained the root access, I recently S-Offd my M8 (By using Sunshine), and today I finally get the "SuperCid" as you can see in the following strings:

My question is: Is it possible to Downgrade my Marshmallow Rom (Original with Sense7) to an Older version [HTC_M8_UL_K44_SENSE60_SECURITY_HTC_Europe_1.12.401.17_Radio_1.14.2133156.UA24G_20.18h.4096.03L_release_356030_signed] (in my opinion if older it is better!), I tried to flash the 4.4 KK, but both with Ruu.exe and Ruu.zip gave me many errors (Error 41 when .zip and The process is stopped at step 0/7 when .exe), can someone suggest me something please? :'(
P.S.: Sorry because I'm a Noob and not so good at English...
Thanks in Advance Guys!!!
"Older is better" is not really a reason. Missing numerous critical security updates, performance improvement, and a lot of other reasons would say you are incorrect with that statement. Unless you have a very specific reason to install a 2-year old OS version, its most likely a bad idea.
Error 41 is wrong MID. My guess is you got that error flashing an RUU different from the one you stated.
In any case, you need to flash the matching (KK) firmware before you can downgrade by RUU from anything before MM (that goes for LP as well).
htc one m8 rooted and s off also super cid but cant install custom rom always back to boot menu. cant load rom please help try different rom but always getting same error. please help me.
If this is your device details - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72464696&postcount=1
Your device is not regular M8 but M8 EYE. There is no custom ROM that work on it (AFAIK) .. so get back to stock to have a working phone.
You should ask in the same thread in Q&A when you have questions, not here in General section
I have the same issue. I can install the custom ROM but I can't make the WiFi work.

How can it be same issue ? His problem cannot install custom ROM but you can.
Your problem is outdated firmware. You updated only hboot but not the firmware.
Download and install FW_MMSD_6.12.1540.4_DevEd.zip from here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64471713&postcount=10519
This will fix your wifi problem
Thanks ckpv5!
I've also download another Firmware but forgot to follow instructions.
I got the following error:
"FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)"
So I run it again and in the second time it completed the whole process.
Thank you!!!
