So I have an HTC One M8 fully rooted s-off running the latest android revolution HD but whenever I try to flash a Rom that isn't either android revolution or viper one recovery tells me the process fails seconds within trying to flash. I've tired using both TWRP and CWM neither fix this issue, what's going on and help please.

Firstly: This belongs in Q&A.
Secondly: What reason does it give for failing? It must give a reason of some sorts.

Try installing ROM again, go to install the ROM, then when it gives screen with swipe, untick the zip verification box then swipe to flash.

I just got this phone yesterday. I rooted with HTCDev and then I got S-Off with firewater and SuperCID. Ever since I installed Android Revolution 8.1 it reboots constantly. I have wiped cache, did a fresh install even tried to flash CM, but the reboots are still there. I am on 2.xxx.xxx framework and have TWRP recovery. Any help? I think it might be related to memory leaks, but I am not entirely sure.
Did you do a full wipe before install.

I always do. No matter the rom I am flashing or where I'm coming from. My OCD doesn't handle dirty flashing at all.
Have you tried to flash img file from your Rom via adb. Did you make a backup ?

Are you on Verizon ? I don't know much about HTC One M8 variants but it seems some complication there. Maybe a restore to Verizon ROM/firmware can help you.
Anyway .. here is the Verizon thread if needed : http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one-m8
You mentioned that you installed ARHD 8.1 ROM ... which firmware that you installed ? I know you are not a noob but sometimes people confuse the different of a firmware and a ROM

I'm not entirely sure. I will keep this thread updated, if I have anymore random reboots. I figured just doing a clean install would be a good start to resolve the problem; it always is.
Just had my first reboot. I think it might be due to greenify. Does anyone have experience with this app and the HTC One M8
Greenify wont cause reboots. Are you running a custom kernel and undervolting by any chance?

Try to downgrade your firmware to 1.54.x.x...or if you stick with 2.x.x.x try ARHD 9.1 to see if it makes any difference
Sorry for stupid question.
I'm currently on skydragon. But I'm wanting to switch back to sense is ARHD 9.1 but I know my firmware is only still 1.154.x
When I last tried ARHD I got no sound which I know is because i m not on 2.2x firmware. Is there any way of getting sound on it or upgrading to new firmware without a PC I only have a W8.1 laptop which doesn't want ADB to work at all
Thanks

ADB/fastboot works fine on my Windows 8.1 Pro laptop using the HTC drivers that come with HTC Sync Manager
Hey guys I flashed the GPE HTC One M8 4.4.4 ROM as listed in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2706441&page=6
Before this I had CM11 M10 - I did the usual factory reset and so on / wiped data etc and then flashed the ROM via TWRP recovery. Problem is just after the Google animated logo when I get to the setup screen the device powers off and reboots after about 15 seconds. I've tried flashing twice.
Anyone any thoughts on this? I have the international GSM HTC One M8 so my device should be compatible?
Thanks,
Fintan
I usually get this if my SuperSu need to update. Try flashing updated SuperSu

Great thanks, I'll give that a try
Supposedly we'd have it by the end is the year. That's only 8 days from now.
I'm trying to find status update on T-Mobile website but it's junk and can't find what I'm looking for.

So it's in testing?
I've already found search there but no matter what phone you click it's highlighted as "T-Mobile testing" but you're able to click any of the three stages and it changes it so it's not very clear.

That wasn't 6.0, that was a software update to prepare for the 6.0 update. That's the second one in the last few months.

Weird, I just put my phone back to the Tmo version from being converted to EU and the last OS update I got was 4.20.531.4 and then came the 3 little updates for preperation for Marshmallow. Nothing after that. Should that matter that I didn't get the Stagefright 4.20.531.5 update?

You're right, I should have paid closer attention before posting.
Assuming the update does come soon, and I get impatient, how would I go about returning to stock/unrooted in order to receive it OTA? (I'm stock, rooted, s-on)
Short story, you need to restore a non-root backup and the restore to stock recovery. The version of stock and the recovery need to match. Also I believe ( but could be wrong ) the version will match the hboot that you have. This is why before you root, you grab a copy of the ROM and recovery and save them.

What will happen if I simply update when it does roll out? I'm on stock rooted but never took a backup before root.

The update will fail. OTA the updates from T-mobile need to have you on the non-rooted, non-modified stock ROM with stock recovery installed that matches the version of the ROM.
That is why before I installed TWRP - copy the recovery and ROM and note the version in the filename. Also because I run stock more often than I run rooted, custom ROM, etc. I usually leave the stock recovery inplace and use the command 'fastboot boot twrp.img' command to boot into TWRP. This way I use TWRP but not have to restore my stock recovery when needed.

How do I revert back to the normal recovery? I installed the custom recovery to root the phone.
When the update rolls out I will need to unroot and reinstall the normal recovery?
Wow... @moversi finally posted after ~ 20+ days of being MIA...
Say's they're currently on target for a 1/25 release for 6.0 on T-Mobile...

Getting frustrating now. I'll end with with a new phone and only get to enjoy MM on the M8 for little to no time at all.

Seems like the carriers are pulling the update. Sprint has and I think I saw that Verizon too but not 100%. My thought is too many bugs still with MM.

Hopefully they are fixing any bugs that plague Android 6.0, if that's the case, they can take all the time they need to make it right.
@uoY_redruM, why don't you just convert your phone to who has MM? Or you can't?
